STATE TEACHERS
Opening of the Annual conven-
ton in Des Moines.

Des Moines, Dec. 29.--With ad-
dresses by President A. w. Stuart Of
ottumwa and by DR.. ]. P. d. John,
ex-president of De Paw university
the appointment of committees and
a brief musical program, the annual
meeting of the Iowa State Teachers
association was formally opened at
the Auditorium last night.
There was large attendance at
the opening session and deep interest
and enthusiasm was manifested. The
feature of the evening in respect to
its bearings on Iowa educational
affairs was the address of President
Stuart. The head of the association
took this opportunity to administer
several stinging criticisms of pres
emit educational methods. These,
he declared, still savored too strongly
of the sixteenth century. The greau
evil of the schools today, as was the
case 300 years ago, he said, is the
practice of requiring the pupil to
commit to memory the words of the
book, and compelling the student to
commit rules and definitions before
the facts on which they depend are
comprehended. An important recon-
mendation of the president was for
three additional normal schools. He
took a stand for free text books,
township organization, manual train
ing in all schools, the wider applica-
ton of kindergarten methods, for
better teachers and for compulsory
education.
The following committees were an
nounced by President Staurt:

Central Was Rushed

The holiday passenger business on
the Iowa Central was the heaviest in
the history of the road. & The equip
ment at hand was wholly inadequate
to the handling of the business.
Every car that could be brought into
use was pressed into service. Cars
were borrowed from other lines and
still the cars at command did not
meet the requirements of the travel.
On Tuesday the local ticket sales for
the Oskaloosa Office went far ahead
of any thing "within the memory of
the oldest inhabitant" or any record
of the Office. Trains had to be held
in order that the travellers might all
secure tickets. 1t was a great good
natured crowd jostling each other
here and there. For every passenger
that boarded the trains however a
passenger alighted and the crowds
about the station during the week
were great.

NEW MAIL CARS.
Iowa Central Railway Adds Two to
Its Equipment

The Iowa Central has received the
two new mail cars that were con-
tracted for some time ago. The new
cars are as perfect and as up-to-date
as is possible to make them and they
are working palaces for the handling
OF the mails. They are full sixty foot
cars with all apartments and con-
veniences. They ride upon six-wheel
trucks and have separate heaters.
The platforms are vestibuled and
there is not an equipment or part
thereof known to the service that
has not been placed in the cars. The
new cars are numbered 81 and SO and
are for the service running on trains
No. and 2. They will replace the
Milwaukee cars that have been used
on the line for some time. The cars
arrived in the city yesterday from
the shops in the east and were pulled
north on passenger No. Thursday
afternoon. Thay will be doing duty
along about the first of the year.

posing the establishment of an east,

that a petition has been circulated,
praying for such a school and signers
secured by Misrepresentation:
Whereas. We recognize in the State
School for the Deaf at Council Bluffs
capacity sufficient for all present
needs and that all agitation for an
other school at the present time, such
as has been advocated by certain per-

to serve personal ends,
ReSoEved, That we disapprove of
all such agitation at the present
time"

AMI. q. CALENDAR.
Made for the Beneht OF a woman's
Building

Indianapolis, Ind, Journal: There
was only one gift for the State Uni
versity student, past, present and fu-
ture, and that was the l. U. calendar,
which is both interesting and beauti-
full. From the moment ones eye
catches the spray of the ever cherished
arbutus on the dainty cover interest
grows with eacn page disclosing famil-
lar scenes. The calendar is decidedly
unique, but entirely comprehensive
only to those who have kindled their
lamp o. knowledge in the classic halls
of the State University. Each page
contains besides the necessary enum-
Grafton of days picture of one of the
buildings, numerous hieroglyphics
with their meaning hiden save to the
initiated, and, what will be priced par
haps most of all, an aphorism of each
of the presidents. One of these, in
which the decisive style of David
Starr Jordan is recognized is, 9TH e
World stand aside to let man pass
who knows where he is going" 9th
er sayings are equally as worthy.
There are also apt poetical quotations.
The symbolical figures represent the
signs of the zodiac, which illustrate or
are illustrated by "take-offs" on the
professors and students
But one must see this work of art
to appreciate it, for to get the force of
the contents requires combined eff
fort of memory and insight, both of
which will be inspired by the l. U.
calendar.
1t was designed by Prof Stempel, of
the English department. The supply,
which is a limited one, is on sale at
Burford's, and the proceeds are to go
towards the erection of a women's
building on the campus.

who do not like scents. A French
modiste, who gives lectures every win

at a morning talk a few days ago, at
which her topic was the sachet.
"TO secure that subtle fragrance
which is the peculiar characteristic OF
the elegantly gOwned woman, it is not
necessary to spend much money, but
rather to spend judiciously a small
amount In Paris, where we study
