market was moderate to-day, and the

was concerned did not show any
change. For export demand was of a
moderate character, and this further
strengthened the staple cotton division
of the market. On print cloths bust
ness was quiet, the Fall River market
being closed, owing to a holiday.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, April 19.-The policy
which has been consistently followed
during the present speculation cam
paign of large buying and bidding up
of some one prominent stock as an eff
fective leader of the whole market was
maintained to-day, with Union Pacific
as the favored stock. No new con-
sideration was advanced as a reason
for the buying, which carried the
stock price up to 1071s, where it closed
at a net gain of rs.
Under cover of this sustaining infiu-
ence, there was a broad and active
speculation in all parts of the list. The
movement was exceedingly irregular,
as the taking of profits went on side
by side with new buying in way
characteristic of an active speculation.
Many special stocks were under ma
nipulation by separate pools, and some
of the industrial specialties made sem
sational movements. international

feverishly Chicago, Indianapolis and

Sugar showed the effect of the vote in
the House of Representatives to re-
scind the differential duty on refined
sugar. Amalgamated Copper found
some support, but was feverish. Amer
lean Snuff, Kansas City Southern pre-
ferred and Minneapolis, st. Louis made
unexplained advances. The loan con-
traction by the banks shows that the
resources for the weeks speculation
have been secured from other sources,
presumably the trust companies and
the foreign money markets.
The bond market showed some de-
cline in activity as the stock market
gained, and there were sharp reactions
in some of the highly speculative is
sues.

A CHRISTMAS THOUGHT.

Oh. Christmas is coming again. you say,
And YOU long for the things il is bringing
But the costliest gift may not gladden. the
day,
Nor help on the merry peifs ringing
Some getting is losing. you understand,
Some boarding is far from saving,
What you hold in your hand may slip from
your hand,
There IS something better than having;
We are richer for what we give,
And only oy giving We live.
Your last years presents are scattered and
You have almost forgotten who gave
them;
But the loving thoughts ycl bestow I've on
AS long as YOU choose TO have them.
Love, love is your riches, though ever 50
poor;
No money can buy that treasure;
Yours always, from robber and rust Sc
cure,
Your own without stint or measure;
1t is only love that can give;
1t Is oaly by loving we live.
For who is It smil IS through the Christ
mas morn,
The Light of the whole creation?
A dear little child. In a stable born,
Whose love Is the worlds salvation.
He was poor on earth but He gives us all
That can make our life worth the living;
And happy the Christmas Day We call
That Is spent, for His sake. in giving.
He shows us the way 70 live;
Like Him, let US love and give!

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
COMPETENT TEACHERS,

Any one of ordinary common sense
knows that teacher cannot teach
that which he has never learned. In
deed, it is well understood that some
persons are not able to impart to
others the knowledge which they may
possess. Learning is one thing and
the liability to teach" is another thing.
One may pass the required examina-
tions in reading, writing, arithmetic,
etc." and fail, entirely to teach the
subjects specified. liability to teach, -
next to ''moral character" without
which the most learned person in the
land is not tit to be teacher, is of the
greatest Importance. The chief bust
ness of the teacher is to teach. How
ever much or little he may know, it
matters nothing if he is unable to
teach it to the children, who come to
school to be instructed. A person of
quite limited knowledge may succeed
as a teacher if he is proficient in the
science of teaching, which must be
learned like everything else.
The State demands first of all that
the Board of School Visitors shall sat-
isfy themselves, ''as board" that
''all persons desiring to teach" have
''moral character and ability to teach. -
And then comes the secondary matter
of qualification to ''teach, Thorough
ly," observation-disclosures. Section 70 School
Laws.
President Eliot of Harvard Univer-
sity has been quoted as saying that the
greatest menace to our public schools
is the school committee. The value
of education depends upon the teacher,
but the quality of the teacher depends
upon the school visitors. If the school
visitors are incompetent to examine
the candidates for teachers, as to their
liability to teach," or for any reason
fail to do so, then the law is of none
effect to start with. And if the super
visor does not know nor care whether
the teacher has ability to teach, then
who shall decide whether the teacher
is competent or incompetent.
The success or failure of public ed
ucation does depend upon those who
And it is plainly the duty of the board
to protect the public and secure the
inalienable rights and privileges of the
children to such instruction as the
State intends them to have at the
public expense. The law is clear
enough on this point: ''They shall
revoke the certificates of such teachers
as shall at any time be found incom-
petent to teach or to manage school,
or fail to conform to the requirements
of the bOard.''
If teacher is really incompetent to
teach or manage a school, then is it
not great wrong to the people of that
district to deprive them of their legal
and moral rights? But if the teacher
is all that the law requires. and is
faithful to his trust, should not the
board make haste to vindicate him as
public servant? Why not?-[O. O.
