NN CHEMICAL D|IG|NE.
The Town Board Adds Am
other Fire Fighter to
the Equipment.

I - Z A5t SO,
Several weeks ago the Courier
threw out the suggestion that it !
would be a good idea for the town
in . chemica.. fire engine |
tt,s act in conjunction with the
steamer that we now have, he
lieying that while steam was be-
ing gotten up the chemical would
in d great many cases put out an
ordinary fire and would be much
quicker. The board evidently
had the same idea in mind for
last Monday they purchased q
forty five gallon engine from D.
T. Jones. of Carrlngton. The
engine is manufactured by Oben-
chain & Boyer, of Logansport.
Ind, and is a frst-class machine
in every particular. In connec-
tion with the engine thereis 100
feet Of hose. Tuesday morning,
the machine was loaded and a
test of its strength was made.
The hose was carried to the top
of Hammer & Condy s new build
ingswhich is 20 odd feet high and
stream turned on. The pres
sure seemed TO be good and u
stream was sent 20 10 80 feet
out Of the nozzle from the top of
this building. One charge lasts
12to Is minutes and it can be re-
loaded in q very short time, so
that good service can be secured
from the little fighter. The test
was perfectly satisfactory to
those who don't expect too much
from a small chemical engine
and we believe that the action of
the board will be sustained by
thu: bus inessm We now gE'' have have
a well equipped fire department.
and certainly ought to be able to
cope with the fire fiend, if occa-
sion presents itself, with good
effect. The cost of the machine
is a little under 5000. a small
amount compared with the good
it is capable of doing.
In addition to the engine the
board has added TO the equip
ment two sets of extension seal.
ling ladders, 48 galvanized fire
buckets, and four 3 gallon fire
extinguishers.

q peevish condition to follow q |
course like this which so goes
into minor details, it is an absurd
assumption for one to think that
they can keep pace with the
course of study with only six
months school in q year and
these not always consecutive,
and with one pupil entering now
another one later on, with Mary
staying at home month to mind
the baby, Carl remaining at home.
to herd the cattle for five weeks,
etc. There is not one pupil
out of twenty five that would at.
tend the common school long
enough to complete the course.
AS soon as a country child recog
nizes their ability they soon leave
the common school and seek ad-
Tittance into some high school.
or normal school, and a st,,icu ad-
herence to the course. at the
time they leave. would be of very
little assistance in determining
their classification on entering
the high school.
You may ask in dispair what is
the right course to pursue? l
will answer this question simply
by saying: Let the idea of what
the young man and young wo-
man should be or do, and the
ability to learn determine their
classification and course uf study.
This matter of a course Of study
| is circumstantial, and should be
arranged according to individual
necessities. There is no doubt
but what any competent teacher
of the common schools, who has
thoroughly mastered such books
ON pedagogy as Pages Theory
Practice of Teaching. Roark' s
Method in Education, ETC., vii
be able to accomplish all that car
be expected of the common
school, and have no need of (
course Of study to harass theil
plans. SAM.

In peaceful slumber closed we laid aside
The burdens of a week and sweetly slept.
No thoughts of household task or anxious
cares
Come entering in to mar onr peaceful slum-

And now on this sweet Sabbath day SO calm.
When we once more to yonder church repair.
Well join the throng in songs OF praise to him
Who set aside the Sabbath day for man.
And lDade him rest from every care and toll
Rest weary brain and hands and feet.
From toll and care set free. We break the
thread
That binds our thought to heeting temporal
things
And feast on things eternal Of the soul.
