TOPICS OF THE SCHOOLS.


This. the closing year Of the nine
teenth century, finds everything far in
advance OF what 1t was in the Begin
ming OF the century. This has been a
century OF wonderful progress. When
We attempt to compare things OF to-
day with what they were one hundred
years ago we are simply amazed at the
great progress made IN everything
that tends toward the lettering OF the
conditions OF humanity. The most
wonderful progress has been made in
our own country, perhaps greater than
In any other or in all others. At the
beginning OF the century, although We
had been nation for some few years,
we could scarcely say that we we're
a nation, and other nations predicted
the carly downfall OF the new republic.
Now we are by odds the strongest ma
ton on the face OF the earth. notwlth-
standing the fact that all peoples and
tongues make up our population. What
wonderful change has a century
wrought. 1t is not the purpose to en-
large on this, but the fact is mem
toned to call attention to some Of the
causes that have led to this. The
school houses of America have been the
great factor in bringing about this
great change. In other countries where
the masses are kept In ignorance there
have been great changes in everything
that goes to the making Of true man
hood and womanhood. Our public
schools, open as they are alike to the
rich and the poo-, have brought some
Of our very best men from the depths
Of poverty and obscurlty to become not
only leaders in the nation. but to be
counted among earth's greatest heroes.
In all this progress have our schools
kept pace with everything else. As
a general thing they have. but instances
may be pointed out where they might
have done much better. Yet the fact
remains that our public schools have
been the greatest factor in promoting
our nations progress.

While taking an inventory Of what
our schools have done and nre doing Il
would be well perhaps to come nearer
home and ask the question, Are the
schools Of Wheeling up-to-date in eV-
erythlng that goes to the making up
Of a. first-clasa public school? The
writer was told not long ago by one
who has the good of the schools of
Wheeling at heart that ASA body the
teachers of Wheeling were not as ag
gresslve rs they should be; he did not
say progrcSsive. hut he used the word
aggressive. He believes in the teach
ers, from the highest to the lowest in
our schools. being more aggressive In
the onward march OF progress.
He said they were. as n class. too
conservative. We act rs though we
were afraid Of doing something. With
out attempting to say whether he is
right IN his criticisms or not, there is
enough in It to cause every one con-
nected with our schools to think. II
there is man or a waman that can
afford to be aggressive It is the public
schoo! teacher. because they are en-
gagged In the right and when one knows
that he is in the right he cannot be too
radical.
When It comes to comparing our city
schools with those OF any other city
in the state we will not shun the COM
parison, nor will our schools suffer by
it.

In speaking of this wonderful prog
ress the question might be asked. Have
the schools Of West Virginia kept pace
with everything else that has brought
our state to what 1t now is, and Is des-
tined to place It in the very front rank
in a very few years? While the writer
might be charged with cgotism some
what in saying very muck on this sub
ject, yet when he thinks Of what our
schools we're twenty-five years ago
compared with what they now are he
wonders sometimes how such n change
could be wrought in such n short time
With our university taking rank with
the very best In the land. with our
normal schools growing better and bet
ter each year. with high schools in
every town OF any size, and with our
country schools supplied with teachers
coming fresh from the schools men
toned, he no longer wonders, but sees
in 1t all the greatest factor that has
made our state what 1t Is IN day, and
which viii continu, to make 1t greater
and better as the years go by. Our
schools have not attained all this with
out opposition. Strange to say 1t, but
quarter OF century ago there were
many prominent people in West Vir-
glnia opposed to n system of free
schools. and they made this opposition
felt in every way and at all times.
This opposition has been entirely over
come and the few who opposed our
schools who are still living wonder why
II was so. The public schools of our
country are its greatest safeguard.
They are far better than a standing
army. The little red school houses arc
the sentlnels of liberty and stand for
everything that goes to make up true
manhood In them is taught that love
of country that is a greater protection
than the bayonet. Our country is safe
as long as our schools flourish.

Ahnnt lho Use of Som.

There is a good deal Of nonsense, &C.
corling to one authority, about the
use of soap. Any good soap that is
manifestly not made of rancid oils is
efficient and harmless if it is properly
used. Almost no soap will ever chap
or roughen the hands if the latter are
thoroughly rinsed in clear water. Not
one person in a dozen washes his
hands properly, because OF the neg
lect of this important part of the
operation. Another point about soap
is thai where it is used in cakes the
cake should be rinsed before being
returned TO tile soap dish. Dirty soap
dishes and cakes of soap with crusted
suds upon them can be found in many
otherwise neat homes. The best soap
dish for cleanliness and economy is a
rubber one. This is quickly secured
out every morning, and there is no
fear Of its clinging to moist cake Of
soap and dropping to crack or break
an expensive marble bowl, as metal or
china may Powdered soap in shaker
is the most sanitary and economical
kind to use in n family. A further
desideratum for the washstand is pow

surelv nn AriIstlc screen.

An impecunious maiden in New
York City with artistic tendencies re.
Gently found herself in II need of screen
to hide the badness of the necessary
washstand, the one disturbing element
in an otherwise dainty room. A friend
gave her a Japanese screen Of dilapi,
dated antiquity, adding that she could
recover It and it would then be as good
as new.
After pricing the pretty things in
tapestry and Oriental drapery our in
genious maiden decided she must
manufacture something herself. She
invested in heavy cartridge paper Of
a dark gray tone, which she carefully
pasted on one side of the screen.
Across the bottom she made an artistic
scroll design in sepia, and then sat
herself down to wait for visitors in the
artistic and decorative line, of which
she had many.
Her first caller was a youth whose
drawings have enivened the pages Of
many daily journal. To him she eX.
planned her predlcament, and he good
naturedly produced the ubiquitous bit
of crayon and sketched in one of his
popular cartoons. Other friends soon
came to her assistance, and at the end
of a week the screen was finished, ,
completely covered with autographed
sketches, all OF considerable artistic
merit and many of no little intrinsic
value as we'll
