Especial to the Argus by courtesy OF

Great Falls, May 1S.-Dr Knowles
has gone to Kalispel to investigate
the death of $50 horses shipped to
that point by Grant Smith. Great
Northern contractor, which died from
drinking water in stock yards. II is
thought the water may have been
poisoned by sheep dip, as sheep have
been dipped in the troughs before the
arrival OF the horses.
DR.. Knowles has just returned from
the Musselshell country, where he es-
tablished quarantine on account of
scab among sheep over large area
of country, in which there are 10000
sheep and $4,000 of these were placed
in close quarantine.
The territory included in the quar-.
antined district lies between Mussel-
shell and Junction On the Yellow
stone. Most of the sheep in quaran-
tine range from a point ten miles
north of Junction up to the Mussel-
shell. The entire area OF quarantine
reaches from short distance east

stage road from Junction to Mussel-
shell Crossing being the west bound

stone to the head of Muggins creek.
running in a straight line west from
about the Big Bend of the Mussel-
shell. He lays particular stress on
the fact that sheep men are warned
that trail bands can by no possibility
be allowed through the territory be-
tween the Musselshell and the Yel-
lowstone.

A Statement.

AS the facts In regard to the resig-
nation of Miss Margaret NJ. Shipman
from the Fergus county high school
are not generally known. wish to
make the following statement:
When the vacancy occurred in
February was asked to decide II IL
was advisable for her to leave her
position in the high school OF Litch-
field, Mimi, where she was assured
of a position for the following year
TO teach here. The secretary OF the
board of trustees said that while
nothing farther than the remaining
part of the term could be promised,
owing to a probable change in the
board and the possible return of Miss
Williamson. still, as there was like
lihood of an increase in the corps OF
teachers. he thought her chance good
for retaining the position. On this
showing | advised her to come, the
board of trustees at Litchfeld con
sentlng.
From the time OF her arrival until
the election OF teachers for the en-
suing year no criticism Of her work
was made by either the board or the
principal of the school. In fact, the
latter stated that her work and gov
ernment had been satisfactory so far
as he knew and he considered the
board under obligation to retain her.
Upon consideration. Miss Shlpman
decided that as her application for
reelection had been entirely ignored
and other applicants called for. her
time would be better spent In looking
for another situation and resigned at
once. HENRY e. SHIPMAN.

not come to the boy for two or three
years later.
This third period is one of strange
inconsistencies. Il is the time of
doubt, but also religious convictions.
More conversions now appear than in
all the other life. II is the time when
the child seeks q confidant. but also
becomes reticent and in particular
draws away from the parent He
seeks TO run away from home. mis-
takes normal physical symptoms for
abnormal ones, and sometimes almost
loses his mental equilibrium because
OF loss of control. II there is ever
time In life that the individual is
to need wholesome association and
helpful advice 1t is now. He needs
also interesting studies, wholesome
activity and the preoccupation of the
mind. Safety is now In preoccupation
by good things. II there Is not this
preoccupation, the mind will run riot
There is also the need OF gymnastic
exercise. for manual training, for
scientific experimentation. for bio
graphic reading; but above all for
association with some strong teacher
of attractive, wholesome personality.
The recognition of these three per-
iods is fundamental TO the best edu.
cation of the child. There are times
in the life OF every pupil when he
has great and special needs; when
the 'let up" policy must be the possi-
bility of the school,. II is not right
to treat all children alike nor TO press
them equally hard at all times. Edu-
cation will never be scientific, never
reach the greatness of its mission,
until II bases itself upon the best ply
sical life of the child.
