Inc Speer method of teaching arith-
metic, commonly known as the ratio
method, which has been in use in the
public schools of this city for num-
Der of years, Is to be supplanted by
the old fashioned method and the Sec
rotary OF the board OF education has
been Instructed to purchase stuff.
cient number of Whites Primary
arithmetics to supply the pupils In the
various schools. The acceptance OF the
resignation OF one Of the teachers and
the letting OF contracts for the wall
and the grading at the Garfield school
building together with other business
occupied the attention of the members
OF the school board in two sessions
held yesterday morning and evening.
The decision to change the method
Of artthmetical instruction in the low.
er grades OF the school comes in re.
Spouse to an urgent demand from the
patrons of the public schools which
has been growing stronger each year
for several years past. While the oppo-
sition to the system has been strong
yet there have been strong champions
for 1t among the teachers, patrons and
members of the board.
nCSultS MOI SaIlST aCCOry.
The opponents of the system con.
tend that even after several years
work the pupil who uses the Speer
method has indefinite and hazy ideas
OF the true and correct values of nun.
bers and that the results are not prac.
| teal and satisfactory.
The speer Method.
The Speer Method is built upon the
theory that 1t is more productive Of
thought. observation and development
for the child to observe the proportion
and comparative sizes and relations of
concrete things than 1t Is to merely
memorize numbers and facts. The
child Is taught to observe that one
apple is one-half the number of two
apples, one-third Of three apples that
blocks of varying sizes are twice or
one-half as large as others instead of
being cne-inch or a two.inch cube.
This idea is carried out through the
first five grades Of the child's school
work and after that period of time the
pupil goes forward much in the same
manner that has been customary since
the days OF the three RS" readin,'
ritin, and 'rithmetic.
| The decision to return to the old
method Is made with the idea that
while the old system and methods can
perhaps be greatly improved there is
at present no set of text books that
the board feels inclined to adopt.
Contracts Let.
The offer of August Hurd to build
! the stone wall at the Garfield schoo
building made necessary by the grad
Ing of Ash street for 81 per perch was
accepted and the contract awarded
The offer Of 1914 cents per yard fol

same building was also accepted ant

Advertise for Goals,
The secretary was ordered to ad

needed by the school building durins

FLAMlNGoEs.
There Are Several Species of These
Radiant Tropical Birds.

EauIaht IrOp1CA1 h1ruS.
There are about seven species of
f1amingoes inhabiting the tropical parts
Of both hemispheres, three of which
are in America, frequenting the BAHIA
mas, Florida and Cuba. In height the
bird averages about five feet, and if it's
curved neck were stretched to its full
length 1t would tower above the head
of an ordinary man. Flamingoes breed
In May and June. At this period their
bright colored plumage is faded. 1t as
sumes its most radiant hues in winter.
When first hatched, the young have
straight bill, which after time de-
velops into one of bent shape Their
first plumage is grayish white and
passes through various tints of pink,
rose, carmine or vermilion to the full
scarlet of the adult, which reaches it's
deepest shade on the wings. Several
years are necessary to perfect the
final gaudy plumage.
The eggs are white, showing blue
tinge when scraped under the surface
They are long, oval and have thick
shell, equaling in size that Of the com
mon goose. The flesh is not(palatable
to the taste, being extremely oily.
They feed upon both animal and vege-
table matter from the ooze and soft
bottoms Of the shallow waters and
lagoons selected by them both as a
feeding ground and nesting place.
When flying, their long legs are stretch
ed out behind and the neck becomes
! straight. They have peculiar voice
and sort of one syllable outcry,
which they utter as an alarm signal
| the moment they are approached or
believe themselves to be in danger.
On account Of their keen eyed and
wary nature it is almost impossible to
get within close range Of them. They
walk with slow and cautious tread

Traits of Turkish Nomads.

The Yuruks assert that human souls
return into the bodies of animals and
that the spirits Of the latter take also
a human form and appear at deter
mined epochs. This is certainly the
reason why they are so kind to ami
mails. A Yuruk loves his horse as
much as his family. The horses have
their place under the tent, and it is
not uncommon to see them warmly
wrapped in a magnificent robe when
the Yuruk and his children are Gov
cred with rags.
Some other customs attest also pa
gan origin. In the orient everybody
knows that the Yuruks worship GER
tain trees and rocks. These facts yield
sufficient evidence that monotheism is
by no means the essential dogma Of
their religion.

A QUEER COACH ROAD.
Passengers Pay Their Fare and
Work Their Way ms Well.

Passengers Pay Their Fare and
Work Their Way ms Well.
In the old days of canal voyaging
captains Of boats were not infrequently
asked to give a wayfarer a lift. The
man was asked il he was willing to
work his passage. If he said Yes he
was put to work driving the horses. In
Europe, 1t seems, a similar custom is
practiced on paying coach passengers.
In the Pyrenees there is coach road
between two villages, one on each side
Of a mountain 10000 feet high. After
the coach has proceeded little dis
taneee Tsstd reached the steep part of the
ascent the conductor begs the passen-
gers to get out so as to ease the horses.
They are even requested a push be-
hind and help the poor animals to drag
the huge vehicle uphill.
When at last the summit is reached
the traveller, wiping from his forehead
drops of sweat as big as kidney beans,
congratulates himself on the breezy
ride down the steep slopes of the de-
scent which awaits him.
There is where he makes a mistake,
for the conductor, with d sweet smile,
begs the gentlemen to be kind enough
to hang ON to the coach behind and act
the part of a Westinghouse air brake
or else the horses may be injured.
In this manner the terminus of the
line is reached, the passengers having
pushed the coach all the way up one
ei1 of ;,, D,,l ,n1I 1,,n
all the way down the other.
In spite of this there is rush for
places on the coach daily, as there has
been for half century. Spare Mo-
ments.
