EZRA BURTON SLOANE.

Ezra Burton Sloane aged twenty-four years, of this city, died suddenly in Providence, R. T., yesterday. He left New Haven Saturday to visit friends in New York, and the news of his death in Providence was surprise to his rel atives. His death was caused by pois- oning. For some time he had been un- der great mental strain caused by over study. He attended the Hillhouse high school for three years, was member of Alpha Delta Sigma fraternity and at one time was a member of the staff of the Radiator. Leaving school he con- tinued his studies at home expecting to enter college next fall. He combined other work with his studies and the strain was undoubtedly too great for him. He leaves a mother and father and several brothers and sisters to mourn his loss. Arrangements for the funeral which will be private have not been made.

of the past year. including the snfi-box

Blessed is the poor man, says an ex-
change. Pickpockets never bother
him and road agents give him the wide
be- tn. The tax collector never hounds
him. Nobody tries to borrow and no
one asks him to endorse. If the bank
breaks he can grin and bear it like a
man. He never runs head over heels
in debt and Is Tot robbed by LAWYERS or
harrassed by litigation. Burglars never
invade his premises and he sleeps in
peace. When he dies nobody questions
his will or attempts to confiscste his
bones. Blessed therefore are the poor
in pocket, for they always get their
moneys worth.

County Reading Circle.

The Teachers Reading Circle will
meet in Lexington, Saturday, October
y, 1901.
1t is expected that large number of
teachers will take part in the county
reading circle work. There are quite IA
number OF teachers who will finish four
years work this year and receive a
certificate from the State Reading Cir
Gle Board.
Every teacher should take an active
part in this work and keep abreast
with the advancement made. The time
is fast approaching when teachers who
are content with what they acquire
while in school must seek employment
at something else and give way to those
who are prepared TO meet the demands
of he times.
The Reading Circle is one of the
means by which the teacher can ad-
vance in the work.
This year, nature study and litera-
ture will be the subjects for study. The
texts adopted are "Lange's Handbook
OF Nature Study and Introductory Les
sons in English Literature" Both OF
these books are taken from the list
recommended by the board of directors
of the State Teachers Reading Circle,
and can be obtained from H. A. Gass,
Jefferson City, Mo-. the price being
one dollar each
Local circles are being organized al
over the county, and the County Board
of Education invites the superin-
tendents and principals of the various
towns and villages TO organize locaI
circles, composed of their teachers and
the teachers of the surrounding dis
trlcts.
A programme will be sent to each
teacher as soon as the same can ht
arranged. JOS. KUEHLS, Pres.
