LUCK COMES
THEIR WAY NOW
Promoters Of Irrigation Will Have
Money For the Work.

Washington. Nov. 1.-The promoters
Of irrigation by the aid of the gov
ernment are enjoying an unprecedent-
ed and entirely unexpected run Of
luck. In the last Congress they were
wholly vanquished In their fight for
the passage Of the bill placing irriga-
tion projects on the same footing with
river and harbor improvements. Last
session they made an organized and
compact attack on the opposition, and
passed their measure. They were
delighted to find, what they did not
expect when they began their strug.
gle, that there was available for irri-
CATION works from funds on hand from
the sale of public lands over $1,000
600, General Land Commissioner
Hermann now announces that the
receipts from the sale of public lands
have so Increased that, with the close
of the last fiscal year. the fund for
irrigation purposes amounts to $1,000.
000 Mr. Hermann expects that the
land sales next year Will not he far
from what they We're last year, and
that about $6,oOO,0O0 will he added to
the irrigation fund, making 1t over
$15'00O,000 by the time the work nc.
tually begins.

The report also dwells at consider

teachers and it's effect on the conduct
of the schools and the efforts of the
teachers and the endeavor of the pu-

Course of Study" Superintendent
Hotchkiss has had printed Course
of Study for the teachers which not
only let's them know what they have
to do, but undertakes TO discuss
briefly the means available for attain
ing the end defined, and also gives
fairly complete statement of the prin-
ciples, laws and methods involved
In answering the question asked in
the heading of one of the departments
of the report, which Is: what shall
a Course of Study Contain?' he first
discusses the situation thoroughly
and then enumerates what the course
of study should and should not con,
tain, ms follows:
1t should contain only such subjects
as will not be learned without formal
instruction, unless such subjects must
be used in the process of learning 9th
er subjects at an earlier date than that
at which they would be learned natur-
ally.
No subject should he introduced I'M
less 1t Is suited to the development of
the powers of the children taking the
course at the period of its Introduction.
The range of subjects selected must
be broad enough to afford Il well
rounded development of all the powers
of the individuals taking the course
Those subjects should be given pre-
ference which will add to the ability
of the student to fake n living and to
enjoy life.
Only such subjects should be select
cd as readily lend themselves to the
teaching process in school.
Those who formulate courses of
study must bear constantly in mind

money.

PORTAGE BOARD
Is Guarding the Interests of Port.
age TAXPAYERS.

To the Editor of the Democrat:
] notice in the issue of your paper
of Oct 20 that you state that the Ak
ron BOARD of Education rejected the
proposition of the Board of Education
of Portage township, relative to the
North Hill school building. This is
evidently mistake, as no proposition
of the kind mentioned was ever made
by the Portage Board. The last propo-
sition made by the Portage Board was
on March II, 1902, and was substan-
TALLY as follows: The Portage Board
agreed to accept $500 for It's interest
in the North Hill buildings, provided
the Akron Board would annex for
school purposes that portion of the
North Hill school district which was
left out at the time of annexation.
This proposition was rejected.
| should not have noticed the above
mistake but from time to time there
have appeared in the reports of the
proceedings of the Akron Board ref
erences to propositions of settlement
made by the Portage Board being re-
jected by the Akron Board. which
were, In fact, never made by the Por-
tage Board. Some of these reported
propositions were ridiculous when com
pared with any proposition the Por-
tage Board ever made, and decidedly
unfair to the taxpayers of Portage
township, as well as the members of
the Portage Board, to whom is in
trusted the care of the school property.
desire to inform the public through
your paper that the Portage Board is
carefully guarding the interests of
Portage township in the matter of the
disputed property, and that the propo-
sition of March 21 was made solely as
n compromise to avoid further litiga-
tion. The Akron Board, however, we
understand, claims the right to the
North Hill building without making
any compensation whatever to the
Portage Board. This seems to us un-
Just, and in the absence of any offer
of equitable settlement, the Board Is
Obliged to let the Court determine its
interest.

President of Portage Board.

The second annual report of Super
intendent II. V. Hotchkiss, of the Ak
ron Public schools, has just been com
pleted and many copies of the report
will be printed and kept at the High
school for reference and TO answer the
calls that come for them from cities all
over the country. The schools of this
city have made name for themselves
during the past few years. and consti-
tute one of the features which has
made Ohio stand well in the front rank
OF the states which are regarded as
the educational leaders of the Union.
The Superintendent report is vol
luminous, and discusses all matters
which come under his supervision and
attention In detail, making bulk
which is too large to be handled here.
Those who have seen the document
regard II as thorough and most intel
ligent.
The Democrat is able to refer here
to a few of the more interesting points
contained in the first instalment which
has been given out for publication.
1t costs $1,000 to run the schools ev-
cry school day of the year, which
means that 1925 are required for ev-
cry hour Of every school day. In order
that oil this money may be expended
with n minimum of waste and with
close attention to detail, the Superin-
tendent enlarges upon the fact that
there must he a perfect system
throughout all the branches Of school
work. The minutes must be taken care
Of. "rhe loss Of half day may seem
a small matter" he says, when sus-
tained by but one person; but one half
day multiplied by 10000 gives re-
suit that is certainly worthy of serious
consideration"
Under the heading, Additional
Room" Supt. Hotchkiss comments on
the fact that although the Board has
been building new schools as fast as
possible, 1t cannot keep mp with the
growth of the city. when the Miller
building was finished" lie says, at
was thought by some members Of the
Board that 1t would be many years
before all the rooms could be used.
1t is probable that all the rooms will
be occupied with large schools before
the completion of the present school
year. Every school In the city, except
the Bowen and Miller, is over-crowd-
ed" In speaking OF the need on the
part Of the Board to provide more room
all the time, he recommends the fol-
lowing AS necessary: The abolition
OF all basement rooms as soon as pos
sible the establishment of kinder
gartens In all parts OF the city. and
the erection of building as soon ns
possible to relieve the crowding at the
Henry, Kent and Spicer buildings.
The substitution, in the new build
ings, of the new system of automatic
heat regulation, and the general sys
tenn adopted in this department Is he
heved by the Superintendent to he a
big step forward. The system is sa6
to be highly successful The air of q
school room is completely changed by
1t every IL minutes, without drafts Of
a change Of temperature.
Color effects and designs in all ol
the buildings have been given mucl
attention lately. and the Superintcnd
ent is much in favor of this too.
