sides some of the finest talent in
music and oratory, should be
something to which almost any
young lady, who has an ambition
to cultivate her ideas and enlarge
her field of knowledge, should
strive to obtain. The Sentinel
has succeeded in making this offer
by the cooperation Of the Colorado
Midland railway and the Boulder
Chautauqua. Some young lady
in this city, with only the cost to
herself of her board, can have all
the advantages of a delis shtful sums

Other towns besides Grand
Junction are afflicted by the growth
of weeds on vacant lots. The man
who cultivates and beauties his
home and lots, adds to the proper
ty OF the man, who has no care
for the looks of his property. We
would like to venture this propo>
sition that, if we were the mayor
of the city OF Grand Junction every
vacant lot would be cleared of its
beauty destroying weeds, whether
the street and alley committee
wanted it done or not. We would
see how much our veto was worth.
We would have that done or there
would be no warrants signed for
any alderman or for no other officer
receiving any pay from the city,
until it was done.

We do not want to be understood
that methods Of teaching like every
thing else have not advanced, but
as in everything else there are some
old things which cannot be i'm
pr oved npon. We are for modern
methods. We are for upholding
the teacher in his or her dlsciplina>
ry methods, in nine cases out OF
ten, but we do hold and take issue
with many modern educators, that
all the things and all the methods
which obtained in the schools OF
twenty-five years ago are not aban>

of education.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
The public schools Of this city

The public schools Of this city
have the fairest prospect before
them now that, they ever had. A
board of the most representative
citizens Of Grand Junction and the
school district, represents the peo-
pie. The mel who compose the
board are anxious and willing that
the schools of this city become the
best schools on the western slope
OF Colorado.
The many changes OF the last
few years have not been beneficial
to the schools and with a settled
policy the schools should make
rapid progress. The higest saler-
les are paid the teachers in our
schools and we should be entitled
to the best in return for the money
paid. The board should see that
its teachers are those who make
pedagogy a study, who are not
teaching as makeshift.
1t has been the policy of several
of the teachers and superintendents
of the Grand Junction schools to
entirely ignore old methods in fa>
vor OF all the new ideas of peda>
gogy. one Of the superintendents
going so far as to say that, it was
not necessary, in accordance with
modern methods to teach the null
tiplication table, that this came to
the scholars as they grew older
without memorizing it. We took
issue with the superintendent upon
that question and we are glad to
say that under Prof. Miller's sup
erintendency that the foundation OF
mathematics almost is having due
attention.
A little OF the old hammering
method OF teaching would not
come amiss. 1t is not taxing the
brain of a child too much to make
them commit a little more of the
text book than they do. 1t will
not hurt to drive home by repeats
ed doses, some of the great facts

The chickens don't crow as they used to
crow,

And the COWS don't low as they used to

When we wuz little boys;
The wind don't blow as it used to blow,
The flowers don't grow as they used to
grow,
Nor the streams don't flow as they used
to flow,
When we wuz little boys.
The snow don't snow as 1t used to snow,
When we wuz little boys;
And the corn don't hoe as it used to hoe,
When we wuz little boys;
Ah, time don't go as it used to go,
Nor hope don't show as it used to show,
Time now fast, then went slow,
When we wuz little boys.
The sewing don't sew as it used to sew,
When we wuz little girls;
And know don't know as it used to know
When we wuz little girls;
Love don't owe ss it used to owe,
Flowers don't strew as they used to
strew,
Nor sweets don't stow as they used to
stow,
When we wuz little girls.
The fire don't glow as it used to glow,
When we wuz little girls;
The boat OF life, as then, don't row
When we wuz little girls:
The mark don't toe as it used to toe,
And beaux don't beau as they used to
beau,
Mother and father both say 80,
When we wuz little girls.
Oh yes. the chickens, cove and winds,
The streams and flowers and boys,
The time and snow and hope and hoe
Are just the same as long ago,
And will be as long as boys and joys
Are every poets rhyme with noise.
Sewing and knowing and owing g the
same,
The strewing and the growing;
The glowing and rowing. toeing and
beauing,
The same just now as they used to be,
And will bs 30 while the old world whirls
And the poets rhyme for curls, is girls.
Be happy then, fair boys and girls!
Know it, and go it, grow it and toe it;
Don't blow it or snow it;
Whoa it, slow, direct it and show it,
With flowers OF beautiful character
strew
This grand old world as you go through
And when silence reigns instead OF your
noise,
When gray has changed the hue OF your
curls-
The world will remember such boys and

In Memoriam.

There is an indeflnuble something in
this world which makes man desire to be
remem bered, after he has departed there
from. To the father and the mother
this is one OF the happy considerations
in their life and its struggles that. in the
faces OF their children, in their physical
form, they have a likeness on earth long
years after they have gone across the
silent river.
One Of the beautiful ties that binds
the members OF many orders together,
and which is especially significant in the
Benevolent, Protective Order OF Elks, 10
that an hour of each day is set apart to
recall the member who has departed to
lar de- far distant or has crossed the river
which permits of no return.
This hour in a lodge Of the order OF
Elks is one of the most profound solem-
nifty and one to which each living MEM
Der pays tribute with the best thoughts
that in him there is. II he that has
gone has no children to whom he has
conveyed by nature, his features and his
characteristics, he may know that his
brethren in this order will recall to MEM
ory his deeds and virtues as the hour OF
eleven on each night comes around and
is tolled to the world.
Grand Junction Lodge No. 575 B. P.
o. E. very recently suffered its first be-
reavement in the death of Brother
George r. Ogle. Unexpectedly and with
out the usual warning Of sickness, he
passed into eternity. None who hold
membership in the order was better be-
loved than was he, none more genial OF
temperament, none SO helpful to lift the
burdens OF others.
Born in the sunny southland LIE had
in his nature all the kindliness Of those
who while meek are strong, and yet
noble as the lion, in the defense OF the
weak or the afflicted. His brethren
mourn his loss and at suitable memorial
exercises they have said that it should be
made OF record the esteem in which he
was held, and that resolutions express
i've OF that esteem be forwarded to those
who mourn bis loss in his home.
Therefore they have resolved that in
the death of Brother George r. Ogle the
order loet a noble son, his friends kind
and beloved companion, and his parents
son OF whom they could be Justly
proud.
Be it further resolved, That copy OF
these resolutions, expressive OF the re-
gard OF his brethren, be spread upon the
minutes of the lodge, published in the
Daily Sentinel and a copy forwarded to
the family Of the deceased, ae token OF
appreciation Of their beloved brother.
