Agitating Longer Term
THE REFoRMERs' ARGUMENTS
Too Much Work is Crowded Into Nine

Additional Months Salary an In
ducement to Teachers.
specia! to Times Republican

| Des Moines, March 27.-The people
| OF Des Moines are becoming greatly
wrought up over proposal that the
work of the schools shall be done in
ten months instead Of nine each year
Superintendent Sheakley and members
| of the school board have expressed
| themselves as in favor of lengthening
out the school year but not of increas-
ing the amount of the work done. 1t is
regarded by many as a dangerous in
novation; and If it is put into force
in Des Moines and established as a good
thing it may spread to other parts of
the state and become general. EX-state
Superintendent Henry Sabin has some
very decided notions on the subject.
Il believe we ought to have a ten
months school in all the cities Of Iowa
and in the country" he said. Il re-
member very we'll when we had ten
months of school in Iowa and thought
we were not doing too much for our
children. Then the reformers got after
the matter and said nine months of
school was enough and that became the
rule. They said they would cut down
the work just that much but in fact
they are doing more in the nine moths
now than was ever contemplated in the
ten months. believe that the children
ought to have ten months in which
to do the work of the school year. They
can do it better and accomplish results
far more satisfactory. We are crowd
ing them too much and when vacation
time comes we leave them helpless
have heard too many parents say, %.
what shall l do with the children in
vacation time?' 1t is a problem with
many of them. The children are left
with nothing to do three months and
then crowded beyond all endurance
the rest of the year. The argument
that they must have time for labor
and to assist the parents In earning
living is not a good one. Where. chill
ought to go home and help the fam
lily at certain seasons of the year they
are excused and this is always easily
arranged. But not many of the people
OF Iowa can rightly claim that they
must have their children at home to
help in making the living. believe
that If 1t is once started the plan of ten
months school will become popular in
Iowa and will be much better for the
schools. Then the additional months
salary will be quite an inducement to
teachers and keep many in the profess
sion who would otherwise drop out. It
is worth trying"

Special to Times Republican.


Fort Dodge, March 27.-Information
charging insanity was filed today
against Henry c. Garrison, the man
from Devils Lake, N. d.. who has been
kept in the Turkish bath parlors in
this city for the past few days. Gar
rison's hearing was set for 3 o'clock
this afternoon.
Doctors VINO have investigated the
case say that Garrison has lost his
mind. as the result of heavy drinking,
eliminating in the attack of delirium
tremens from which he has been suf-
fering. The man seems to have lost
all power to talk intelligibly. and to
all appearances is mental wreck.
Garrison achieved some notoriety on
Wednesday, by sleeping for twenty
four hours, almost without waking up.
Mr.. Paulson, the proprietor of the bath
parors was almost coming to the de-
aision that he had Il Rip Van Wrinkle
on his hands, when Garrison came back
TO earth again. The man has hardly
eaten since last Friday, and is fast
becoming emapciated.
1t was expected that Garrison's hear
ing before the commissioners for the
insane this afternoon would result in
measures being taken to send him to
the ASYLUM at Cherokee.
