JNAPPREclArEp TALENT.

Talent unappreciated in the school
room will find a better market else
where if it is put into equivalent ser
vice for the public good The fore.
going is one of the striking and sig.
nificant sentences embodied in Pres.
ident Seerley's address before the
Northeastern Iowa Teachers Assoc
citation, which just closed a success
full session at Mason City. 1t is a
great truth stated in epigram. I'm.
appreciation is whitening blight
to conscientious endeavor. There is
no kind of labor more deserving of
substantial encouragement than that
of the public school teacher. Mere
eulogy Of our public school system
will not tend to swell the ranks of
the teachers or hold the good ones
who are already there. School
teachers cannot use words in the
place of food. Flattery will not pay
bills at the state normal school.
Wind will not provide pedagogic
text books and educational journals.
Teachers require cash to meet their
obligations the same as other NOR
tails. After working for their health
for series of years they naturally
feel it necessary to take up some
other line of work IN order that they
may begin to lay up something for
the inevitable rainy day. Such a
state of affairs can mot be deemed
creditable to any commonwealth.
Proper appreciation of the work of
the public school teacher will see
that the standard of compensation is
established which will make it worth
while for men and women to make
the labor of the school room life
work.--Des Moines Capital.

CHILD LABOR IN IOWA.

Quite a heated discussion was
brought out in the closing session of
the State Conference of Charities
and Corrections over the question OF
child labor in Iowa. e. D. Brigham,
state labor commissioner, advocated
the policy of using the money of the
state to reimburse parents who we're
robbed of the support Of their chill,
dren by the enactment and enforce.
ment of a compulsory education and
anti-child labor law.
The statement was brought forth
in the discussion which followed the
reading of paper by Mr.. Brigham
on "Child Labor and Factory Inspec'
ton" in which Mr.. Brigham made an
earnest appeal for the enactment of
law and its enforcement which
would take the children out of the
factories and put them in school.
Owen Bromley objected to the con.
illusions drawn by Mr.. Brigham
what about the parents who are
robbed of the support of the children
and whose support is necessary to
their sustenance?" asked Mr.. Brom
ley. IT went to work when was II
years old he continued, land earned
one-fourth as much as my father"
1t was in reply to this that Mr.
Brigham advanced his argument for
state help. $3.50 #.Ey
Mr. Brigham indicted the state Of
Iowa Tor its carelessness in the mat
ter of child labor legislation. He
said that Iowa stood eleventh place
as a manufacturing state, and in 100:
the reports from 80 per cent Of thu
establishments show they employ 2,
$50 children, under 16 years of age
In Iowa according to the twelfth
annual census there was one child tt
every thirty adults employed in thu
manufacturing and mechanical in
dustries alone, placing Iowa wa!
down in the rank of states in this re
spect, and below Louisiana anC

was increasing in proportion to tn;

WHAT OF THE FUTURE?

Whether or not this country is

closed, railroads laying off thousands
of men, trusts involved in debt and
scandal buyers hesitating and a few
banks closing their doors. On the
other side are to be seen splendid

money market and an inflow of golG

Of pessimist. AS a rule the finan

full view of the situation and con.
clude that the reaction is merely
temporary; liquidating period and
heathful check upon extravaganza
without foreboding commercial dis
aster.,
Dunn's Review calls attention to
the fact that October's commercial
failures in this country were greater
than for any month since 1893 and
explains that "a more direct cause Of
many large manufacturing failures
may be found in losses experienced
through labor struggles, particularly
in the building trades" So marked
an effect has this labor situation hac

What to Do This Month.

AS the cold weather approaches
persons with weak lungs are in dan

they should early commence the use
of Foley's Honey and Tar. 1t soothes
and heals the lungs and strengthens
them against serious attacks. Per.

remedy. Be sure that you get Foley's
