The county teachers listened on
Saturday to a very practical talk ON
school management by Prof Mosiah
Hall.
There are great many teachers
who think that discipline is the aim
of schools. order in school is a means
toward an end. That end is to de-
vclope school work. character, etc.
The general object in school govern
mcnt is to produce sclf-goyerning
being.
The special object is to get the most
economical work.
one thing that Is often overlooked
is organization a school that is well
organized is almost sclf-goycrning.
DO not make rule until it is nee
ceSsary, then make few rules Govern
ment must spring from the children if
YOU would have good government.
When you are arbitrary and make your
own rules the children will feel re-
bellious Gain the confidence of your
children. Confidence is better than
love.
When you have rules the good, bad
and all must suffer for the breaking of
those rules. They must know there
Is no escape from justice. If you make
rules and then do not rigidly enforce
them the children will not have any
regard for law. Never allow mercy to
rob Justice,
Never indulge i'm SCOlding il does no
good, but does a great deal of harm.
Discussion followed the lecture
Supt. Thompson said that in some
districts in the county, schools were
being dismissed earlier on certain
days to accommodate religious organ
iZatIon. Principals were asked TO
report conditions in their districts TO
the uptcIietendent.

Mysteries Made Plain.

The sermon at the Metropolitan Presby-
terrain Church yesterday morning was
preached by Rev. Duncan c. Miner, D. D.,
pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church
of Joliet. ILL.,, in the absence of Rev. Albert
Evans. who is in New York state for his
vacation. Dr. Miners subject was "Mys-
teries Made Plain in the Future" and was
founded on the text, What 1 do thou
knowest not now, but thou shalt know here
after" John, xiii: Z. He said in part:
'These mysteries are not confined to the
questions of faith or religion alone They
are found in the realms Of nature and
among the most advanced teachers of
science.
1.-The humiliation and suffering of Jesus
Christ furnish the key to the whole problem.
In Him we find the greatest suffering on
the part of the best and purest being that
was ever on our earth. Suffering is not a
mark of Gods wrath. 1t is false idea of
God to imagine that He acted like petty
despot looking out to try to get even with
people,
cited as an instance of one answer that the
Bible gives to the mystery of suffering.
The case of Helen Keller. the deaf, dumb
and blind girl who recently graduated from
Radcliffe College, at Cambridge, and who
has written her own biography and a work
on optimism, and has promise of a brilliant
literary career was referred to as exempli-
flying the doctrine of good coming out Of
apparent evil.
''In order to settle this whole question
we must have faith in the immanent and
indwelling God. AS Carlyle has said, The
beginning and the end of what is the mat
forgotten God. Many people act, work and
strive as If we had not a Heavenly Father,
or as If God were like an absentee landlord
withno personal or direct interest in u.s.

Baltimore Minister Fills Local Pulpit

The pulpit of the Church of the Reforma-
ton, Lutheran, was occupied yesterday by
Rev. Marion ]. Kline Of Baltimore, Nd. in
the absence of the pastor, Rev. DR.. Parson.
The preacher took for his theme, Follow
ing Jesus Closely"
Following Jesus closely often leads into
conflicts between the Christ-life and the
self-life. There can never be perfect har-
mony between the two," said he. I'm the
difference Is the cross which We must bear.
We must bear 1t courageously.
What the world needs pre-eminently Is
race of giants. Men, giants In their
earnestness for service; in their interests to
devotion; in rectitrde, not alone in reputa-
ton, but in character; giants In thought as
well as in outward act. We need them TO
shout out that God Is King. In the Ian
guage of the sensiblfties and OF the emo
tons, the Greek; in; the language noted for
its outward expression of feeling. the He
brew; in the language of will and power,
the Latin of the Roman, God has been pro-
claimed as King. So, today, every other
scepter must be laid aside and the King OF
Kings alone honered as the standard
bearer.
ITO follow Jesus closely, more exhalted
faith must result Finally, those who 1ol-
low will receive the crown. He VIII lead
them into a peaceful harbor. Jesus never
warns His followers of approaching storms,
hut finally Hes leads tthem into the maven
where storms come no more"

ANACOSTIA BRIDGE.
Adverse Report on Plan Without a
Draw.

The army engineers have reported adj
versely upon the plans prepared by the
District Commissioners for the reconstruc-
ton OF the Anacostia bridge without a
draw. Gen. Mackenzie. chief of engineers,
to whom the matter was referred, has re-
ported to the War Department that 1t would
be inadvisable to build such bridge at
that point Of the Anacostia river for the
reason that it would interfere with the
navigation of the river. He calls attention
to the fact that the War Department and
the District Commissioners recently estab-
lished harbor lines in the river above the
present Anacostia bridge, and that certain
merchants doing business above the bridge
have protested against what they deem a
closing of the river SO near its mouth.
Another reason why the army engineers
deem it advisable to have draw in the
proposed bridge is the present inadequate
docking facilities of Washington, which
would be reduced by the action proposed by
the Commissioners. The report has been
submitted to the Secretary of War for final
action.
