our posterity become consummate living
pictures, compared to which the gor-
geous colorings of Rubens are tame and
insignificant AS one friend
hands to another bouquet, so, this an
niversary sends greetings and flowers,
foliage and fruit, to posterity. 1t is the
sole holiday of the human family which
looks forward and not backward.
Another important matter is that of
library and text books. Carlyle was
right when he said: "The true Univer-
sity of these days is collection of
books" But be careful in their selec-
ton. None but the best should be
allowed to occupy space in the school
library. Do not neglect the grades; it is
there that the love for good reading
must have it's origin. Let pupils be
taught to frequent the company of their
betters. "In books and life, that
is the most wholesome society; let
them learn to admire rightly; the great
pleasure of life is that. Teach them to
note what great men admired; they ad-
mired great things; narrow spirits ad-
mire basely and worship meanly."
There are text books in too many of our
schools today valuable chiefly, as relics.
1t is impossible to enumerate in this letter
all of the new sciences, the new forces,
new systems and new methods that
have entered, and are about to enter,
the domain of pedagogy through
twentieth century text books. 1t is
sufficient, here to say, if your school is
suffering from text books that are
behind the times, awake your school
board to their duty in fitting you out
with the newest and best text books,
now on the market. Twentieth cen
tury boys and girls demand, among
their inherent rights, twentieth century
text books.
How to keep the American high
school from becoming female semi
nary is a serious problem. Few high
schools are graduating more than one
boy to three girls. To overcome this,
let us put our courses of study in touch
with the avenues open to young men
and young women who graduate from
our high schools. There are those who
will go to the University. Some will
enter the profession of teaching. Others
will enter the business world. Let us
acquaint ourselves with the circumstan-
ces and desires of pupils on their en-
trance to the high school, or as they
may develop during their high school
course. Those who have the ability
and means to get direct to college or
university on graduation should be
lined up for such course. Those who
must teach before they can take univer-
sity or normal training should be given
some instruction during their high
school course in pedagogy Let them
study the actual work of teaching by
visiting the various grades in your own
school. By a careful use of their time
they may read two or three good works
on methods of teaching. For those who
will enter the business world, let us de-
vote at least "a part of the senior year

solicits the hearty cooperation of every
superintendent and principal in Ne
braska, in working for the good of the
graded schools of our beloved state.
With your help we can render the peo-
pie service, worthy our profession, but
without it, our efforts may be in vain.
Make any suggestions you please for
the good Of the graded schools in parti
cular and the cause of education in gen
eral. Criticise our publications freely.
How may we improve them?
Send us copies of all your printed
matter and publications, manuals,
courses of study, lists of teachers, school
papers. and local papers which publish
school items. By comparing notes and
exchanging ideas we may advance
education until in spirit and in truth it
will be the principal support of virtue,
morality and civil liberty, throughout
this noble commonwealth. Whenever
and wherever we can assist you, COM
mand us. We are ready to be with you
in commencement exercises, educa
tional rallies and patrons meetings.
We hope to meet you at your district
association this spring. Come with
suggestions and questions.
Let us urge that this first year of the
twentieth century be made memorable
in Nebraska by a fitting observance of
Arbor Day The indications at the
present writing are that this spring will
be a favorable one for tree planting.
Awaken your community in this mat
ter. Urge your people to plant trees
along the street, on the lawns, and in
the parks Let the school beautify the
grounds by planting trees, shrubs and
flowers. For long time Nebraskans
were snubbed by being called "Bug-
Eaters" But to the Hon. Charles HI.
Sloan, of Geneva, belongs the honor of
being the author of the resolution
adopted by the legislature of 1895,
which gave Nebraska new name
"Tree Planters State"
To emphasize the Importance of this
day we quote the words of it's
author, j. Sterling Morton: ''Arbor
day-Nebraska' own home-invented
and home instituted anniversary-which
has been already transplanted to nearly
every state in the American Union, and
even adopted in foreign lands, is not
like other holidays. Each of those re-
poses upon the past, while Arbor Day
proposes for the future. 1t contem-
plates, not the good and the beautiful of
past generations, but it sketches, out
lines, establishes the useful and the
beautiful of the ages yet to come.

backs to the future, peering into and

HOW to Fricassee Chicken.

Put the chicken after it is cut in a saucepan. Clean the giblets and add them. Slice medium sized onion and add it to the chicken; then put in two cloves. Pour boiling water enough over the chicken to just cover up to the lev el. Cover the saucepan; stand it over brisk fire. When it has boiled 15 min utes, season the chicken we'll with salt and pepper; cover it again and set it back on the stove, when it will simmer slowly till very tender. Then add 8 pint of cream, and when it begins to bubble again thicken it by stirring in 9 heaping teaspoonful ulsof flour, thorough ly dissolved in cream. If the chicken is not fat, add tablespoonful of but ter. Don't use salt pork. It hardens the chicken and detracts from it's flavor.

How to Prevent Falling Out-Scalp
 Massage and Ponies.
 Falling hair is one of the most com mon ills that attend upon spring, beau teous spring.! Possibly it Is symptom of weakness, and as such should be treated by tonic of iron, which the doctor will prescribe, says the Phila- delphia Times. Outward treatment is also advisable. The hair should be washed regularly, but not too ire quently, or it will become still more impoverished.
 An excellent shampoo is made by melting a cake of pure castle or olive oil soap shaved into thin slices in quart of boiling water. When the soap Is thoroughly dissolved, the result will be of jelly1ike consistency. Add to 1t one teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda, and when cool perfume it or not, as preferred. Put the result away In wide mouthed jar for use. For sham poo wet the scalp with hot water ana rub small quantity of the mixture well into the roots. Rinse afterward in several waters, each one becoming cool CT and cooler. Where dandrun is pres ent good shampoo consists of powder
 
 ed borax, 2 ounces; powdered cam phor, ounce; boiling water, quarts. Mix these ingredients, and when the mixture is cold bottle it for use, and rub a little of 1t we'll into the scalp every few days.
 Scalp massage is a powerful auxti- iary to hair health and is best perform ed by a specialist. It affords relief to nervous headache and neuralgia. A simple and ef1cacious hair grower is made from pure castor oil, ounces, and eau de cologne, 16 ounces. If the spirit is of the proper strength, the oil l Is freely dissolved, and the solution is clear and beautiful, cleanly and safe. One of Sir Erasmus Wilson's famous tonics was the following: Tincture of cantharides, 3 ounces; oil of rosemary, 1 ounce; bay rum, 6 ounces; olive oil, l ounce. It is, said that one ounce of rock sulphur broken into small pieces not powdereG. added to this lotion will retard the coming of gray hair. Then, too, the following quinine tonic is highly eficacious: Sulphate of quinine, half an ounce; bay rum, 16 ounces; oil of rosemary, half an ounce, and tine ture of cantharides, 2 ounces. Dis solve these in enough spirits of wine to make the mixture smooth.

How to wash Cut Glass.

The sudden expansion caused by the heat is almost sure to crack the glass, whereas if it is laid in, the water edge wise or sidewise the danger is over- come. Glass washed in cold water will have 8 much clearer look than that washed in hot water, but it does not respond so quickly to the drying towel. Whether it is washed in hot or in cold water glass should be dried as soon as it is lifted from the water. If allowed to drain, it will be dingy.

How to Pan Potatoes.

Cut raw potatoes in thin slices, put them in baking pan, sprinkling each layer with salt. When the dish is nearly full, pour sufficient milk to cov- CT the potatoes, and bake them in slow oven about two hours. Stir them occasionally, taking care not to break the slices, and if the milk is reduced more than one-half add a little more, as there should be good deal of mois- ture when the process is finished. This mode of cooking gives peculiarly de- lcious flavor even to inferior potatoes.

How to Act When Menaced by Tlsis
 Dangerous Element. -s- < In case of fire if the burning arti- cles are at once splashed with a solu-. fion of salt and nitrate of ammonia an incombustible coating is formed. This is preparation which can be made at home at a trifing cost and should be kept on hand. Dissolve 20 pounds of common salt and 10 pounds of nitrate of ammoniain in seven gallons of water. Pour this into quart bottles of thin glass, and fire grenades are at hand ready for use. These bottles must be tightly corked and sealed to prevent evaporation, and in case of fire they must be thrown near the flames, so as to break and liberate the gas contained. At least two dozen of these bottles should be ready for an emergency.
 Tn this connection it is we'll to re member that water on burning oil Bcatters the flame, but that flour will extinguish 1t. Salt thrown upon a fire if the chimney is burning will help to deaden the blaze.
 If fire once gets under headway, a covering becomes a necessity. A silk handkerchief moistened and wrap ped about the mouth and nostrils pre- vents suffocation from smoke. Failing this, piece of wet flannel will an- EWer.
 Should smoke fill the room, remem- Der that it goes first to the top of the room and then to the floor. Wrap a blanket or woolen garment about you, with the wet cloth over your face, drop on your hands and knees and crawl to the window.
