GETTING THEIR EYES OPEN.

board mas at last come to realization
of the fact that our schools are dcplor-
ably behind those of most Kansas
towns that make any pretentions of
keeping abreast of the times, and that
they cannot hope to get them out of
the pit into which they have tumbled
without securing the proper talent,
and that to secure that they must pay
the market price. With school board
imbued with the idea that our schools
must be built up and maintained on
standard at par with our other insti
tutions and enterprises at any reason
able cost, we may expect them to
come up, and in a few years we hope
it may be possible for a person, when
away from home among educators and
the educated, to tell where he is from
without blushing for his town.
So long as price OF personal favor
itlsm is the only criterion by which
teachers qualifications are measured,
we cannot hope to attain the most de-
sirable results. In selecting teachers
there are many things to be consider
ed besides ability to parse sentence
or solve a problem in common frac
tions. An applicant may have the
above qualifications, in fact, he quite
learned, and still not be such char
acter as you would like for your child
rem to set up as a model. Teachers,
like musicians, are born, not made.
Unless a person has natural love for
children and a heart that can enter
into the spirit of their joys, sorrows,
aspirations and troubles; encourage
them in their efforts, rejoice with
them in their triumphs, and symp&-
thize with them in their defeats, she
should not have a place in the school
room.
A person who cannot use reasonably
pure English and avoid coarse slang is
not proper person to put over your
children. A teacher who dresses slOv-
emily and is careless about personal ap-
pearauce is apt to be sloven in
methods.
All the wisdom and learning of a
Webster will not make a teacher, in |
the highest sense, without the qualifi-
cations which nature alone can give.
The more education and culture a
teacher can have the better, but these
will not take the place Of natural
We hope for revival in our school
interests. We hope the board will
act with intelligence and caution.
We believe they will. And then it
becomes the duty of every patron TO
sustain the board and the teachers in
building up and maintaining the best
school system in the state.
Why should Chanute, with its in
5elligence and its enterprise in other
ines, be placed at the foot of the line
If graded schools in the state instead
,f at the head, where it should be?
A good, first-class school should be
he pride of any town, but it Gao only
,e attained by employing skilled and
teachers. The services Of
uch teachers have an established
market value.
If our board will drop all sectional
ceiling in providing buildings and Sc
uring teachers, and all work har-
loniously together with the one
hought in view-that of building up
nd lettering our schools-and keep
ID a unanimity OF action, in a few
ears we viii have a school system Of

FIGHTS AND FIGHTERS.

Pittsburg, July NV. Corcoran, manager of Jack McClelland, the local featherweight boxer, has sent chal- lenge ill behalf of his protege to Tom O'Rourke. Corcoran's challenge is to the effect that the Pittsburger will box the winner of the Billy Gardner and ''Kid' Broad argument that is to take place before O'Rourke's new club. Any kind of reasonable conditions will suit McClelland and goodly sum of money can be secured to back him against anybody at 126 pounds. Man. ager Corcoran says: T am ready at this moment to deposit With the Morn ing Telegraph forfeit of $500 or ST. GOO to match AIcClelland against either Broad or anybody else at 126 pounds. Of courseI will not bet 1000 that Jack can defeat McGoyern, but the lat ter can be accommodated with battle on the same terms on which he meets others. Outside of McGovern I will back McClelland to fight anybody of his weight and just as soon as this is accepted I will forward a forfeit to the Morning Telegraph"
