POPS IN THE FIELD

Guthrie. Q. T., July 14.-One Of the re-
suits of the Democratic-P -Populistic meet
ing here Saturday for Logan county, Is
that the Populists will put a county
ticket in the field as will the Democrats.
The Democrats viii hold a primary cleo
ZION on July 2S, and the Populists Will
hold their primaries on August 9. The
session was a warm one. and several at
tempts were made to get together before
the Populists walked out and left the
Democrats to fix things to suit them
selves. This leaves conditions in splendid
shape to elect a Republican ticket.

In all, five counties and one reservation

IS IT BEING OVERCOME?

v
During the winter now drawing to a
close scores of educational meetings
were held in various cities and states,
and the papers were full of the wisdom
of experienced men and women teachers.
Personally, most everyone outside, ac-
cording to a recent>writer, has great re-
gard and sympathy for teachers In the
observations following, he says there is
no desire TO diSparage what are I'M
doubtedly honest and praisewOrthy eff
forts. He does not suggest remedies He
only notes 1hings which are food for
thought
We spend perhaps five times as much
MOI ey per capita in education than did
our forefathers in the days Of the lit
tie red school house. Of course we ought
to have five times as good scholars
Cur educators have progressed to an
educational height in methods and man
hers of instruction many times higher
thar their forefathers ever dreamed of
and, of course, pupils should advance
thftt much more rapidly and absorb that
IHuch greater quantity.
In those days a birch CAD, or leather
strap was about the only method teach

Ideas and kindergartens unheard of n
most country schools each pupil was a
whole class by HIMSELF; he studied read
ing, writing and ''ciphered'' through the
arithmetic without a recitation from one
end of the book to the other Grammar

branches. Webster's spelling book ana

months made the usual school year. Look
back at the rude school house, methods
and facilities and compare them with
those of the present day, when school
rooms are better built and better furnish
ed than many of the homes of the M
pills. The contrast is great indeed-but
is the contrast equivalent in the grad
yates?
We certainly, in many ways, have made
the road to learning easy and smooth
but does the pupil progress faster, or, #
faster, then as fast as he ought with the
increased facilities?
Some pretty good men and scholars
came out of the little red school houses
of seVenty-flVe and one hundred years
ago. Their names are in the histories
and on the title pages Of great books on
all manner of subjects. They were states
