work up public interest in behalf OF
these annual teachers institutes, and
the marked success attending this last
which by the way, will be the last dur
ing his present incumbency, must be
very gratifying to That faithful and COM
petent official.
The good people of North Yakima
take great interest in everything per-
tanning to the cause of education.
When the subject of schools is under con-
temptation, nothing is too good for
them; the very best of teachers must be
engaged and the best of appliances in
the most convenient and attractive
school rooms furnished. 1t is commonly
understood that the delegation from
this school district at Spokane, is to
invite the Washington Teachers State
Association to hold its next annual con-
vocation in this city. If the invitation
is accepted, the teachers of the State of
Washington may be sure of kind and
courteous reception and that no expense
or trouble will be spared to make their
stay at North Yakima not only profita-
BILE to them from a professional stand
point, but pleasant and attractive So
cially.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY.
NINETEEN FOUR A MEMORY.

Before the Herald greets its great fam
lily of readers again the year 1904 will
have closed and taken its place in the
silent past, from whence it can be re-
called only in memory. This paper will
start a new volume with the new year,
which will be its seventeenth. In look
ing back over the twelve months all but
past, we are able to see more clearly
what we nave always realized-that the
prosperity and growth of the paper is
due in no small measure to the interest
support which the paper has received
from its friends. In turn. i'll apprecia-
ton of this support, we have endeavor-
ed to give our readers the best paper
that the price of the subscription would
permit, and one that would in every
way fulfill their expectations OF what a
home paper should be. Thus we believe
that both sides have been served. As
we have it in the Latin, "alterum alter
Jus auxilio eget"-the one needs the help
of the other.
No year in the time that the present
management has been connected with
the control of the Herald has been so
gratifying in results; the volume of
business in the subscription, advertising
and job departments is greater now than
it has ever been. the receipts are larger
and the pay roll is the heaviest. But we
look forward to the coming year in the
belief that it will be still better There
is little danger of a panic or financial
depression of any extent, and on the
other hand there is every prospect for
Increased prosperity. Every business
man in the city Of North Yakima, we
believe, shares this opinion, and we sim
cerely hope that their expectations may
be fully realized. We wish all our read
ers,- subscribers, advertisers and patrons,
and the loyal corps of correspondents
who have helped to make the Herald
readable, a happy and prosperous
New Year. May 1905 be the happiest
and best year the favored valley of the
Yakima has ever known.

The announcement that James A.
Drain Is to be retained in his present
position, adiutant general of the Nation
al Guard Of Washington, gives genuine
pleasure 10 all members of the guard
throughout the state, and to a great
majority Of all who take enough in ter
est in the guard TO know the merits of
the men who are at the head of it. Mr..
Drains retention is a compliment to
his integrity and ability, and politics
as such had little to do with it. He is
popular with the guard on account of
the work he has done to build it up to
its present state of efficiency, and it is
gratifying to the members of Company
f TO know that their petition to Mr.
Mead for the retention was among the
first received by the governor elect.

THE TEACHERS INSTITUTE.

The teachers county institute. which
has Just closed its session in this city.
was probably the most successful one
ever held in the county. 1t was largely
attended not only by teachers but by
patrons OF our public schools, who Just
ly considered that a more intimate
knowledge concerning the common school
system of the state was matter of
advantage to them The lectures and
discussions were OF a higher order than
ever before. The address Of DR.. Gault
at the Presbyterian church on Wednes-
day evening was an extremely able and
instructive paper and was, what SC
many dissertations on education lacl,
intensely interesting even to a lay aud
fence.
Our citizens note with local pride. that
very many of the teachers in the city
schools took prominent part in the in.
stitute and acquitted themselves with
credit to themselves and school district

The city councilmen are entitled to
and will without doubt receive the
thanks of every parent in the city for
having instructed the marshal to ring
the curfew bell and to see that the or
dinance prohibiting children from run
ming the streets after Q o'clock at night
is strictly enforced. Children who are
out after that hour of the night find
that there are but few places where
companionship and amusement can be
found, and they gravitate towards these
places as a moth to the candle. The ma
ioritv ef places thus open are not such
as may be frequented by children in
safety to their morals, to put it most
mildly. Parents are, of course, most to
blame, but if they have not the welfare
OF their children at heart sufficiently to
prompt them to keep the youngsters
off the streets at night, the officers of
the law should do it.

REV. HEMRY'S ADDRESS
TO MASONIC FRATERNITY
An Eloquent Discourse, Treating the
Different Standards for Judging
Men, and of Mans Intrin-
sic Value,

The Masons of the city met in their
hall Sunday evening and marched in a
body to the Methodist church, where
Rev. Henry delivered the following SER
mon in an impressive and forceful man.
ner. The Herald has been requested by
a large number to publish it, and takes
pleasure in doing so, believing That all
will be interested in reading it. Taking
for his text Isaiah xiii:l2, 81 will make
man more precious than fine gold !;
even u man than the golden wedge of
Ophir,' Rev. Henry said
"By mans intrinsic value I mean
his value simply as a fully equipped
man. Not as a rich man, as distin-
guished from a poor man. Not as a
man of genius, as distinguished from a
man of mere common sense. Not as a
man OF executive ability, as distin-
guished from man of feeble will and
inactive purpose.
"These elements enter into the con-
sideration of mans value to society.
l want you to consider his value as a
man, created in the image of God and
endowed with certain faculties and
powers that he possesses by right of his
humanity and in common with all other
men.
"a man is to be valued wholly and
solely for that which he is in himself.
for That which stands up in the four
feshly walls of him, apart from clothes.

ever.

Elements of Value.

LET us consider some of the elements
of mans intrinsic value. His body is
worth something. As an automatic in
dustrial machine it has its value in the
marts of commerce From the days
when the pyramids of Egypt and the
military roads and immense aqueducts
of ancient Rome were constructed by
the hand labor of millions of laborers,
to the days when the great southern
plantations swarmed with nimble cot
ton-pickers and the cities of the north
were employing an army of unskilled
factory hands, strength of muscle and
suppleness have always been at premi-
UNI and have been assigned a certain
value in the world of industry.
For many centuries man was con-
sidered simply as a beast of burden, a
tool, a slave, but his capacity for labor
was duly appreciated. We always ex.
I perience a new sensation of astonish.
ment wnen we consider the marvels OF
mans bodily dwelling What a mag.
nifcent physical frame is his! Strong
well knit, supple, elastic, beautifully
nodded Capable of enduring incredi
BILE hardship and privation; yet deli
cately, sensitively responsive to the
lightest thought!
I'VE express our admiration at the
skill that has fashioned the wonderful
lenses of microscope and telescope, and
yet they are but imperfect limitations Of
the perfect lens of the eye. Think Of
the marvellous capabilities of the organ
of the inner ear, attuned 10 all tbs
melodies of nature-the signing wind
the murmuring stream, the song Of
bird, the hum of bee, the sweet cadenc,
Of the voices Of loved ones.
Think Of the brain-the wonderful

An Irresistible Conclusion.

Il believe that. when you set before
yourselves squarcly what it means to
be a man, the conclusion will be ire
sistiblc that he is worth too much to
prostitute his powers to a low and ig-
noble purpose, to live his life aimlessly
or to squanier mis- time and energy as
a spendthrift squanders his inherit
ance. | believe. also. that if we recog-
has created him, we would not be so
Indifferent to his welfare or so careless
of those destructive agencies by which
he is surrounded.
"The chincn bug, the army worm and
the grasshopper are objects of study by
our most eminent entomologists. The
state has taken an interest in their
investigations. Experiment stations
have been erected by public money.
The constitution and habit of life of
these minute creatures have been made
the objects of profound and close in
vestigation. Why?
"In order that a means of extermin-
ating them may be discovered. They
have proven their destructive nature
How terrible when the entire states of
Nebraska and Kansas were ravaged by
locusts; when an entire wheat crop in
Dakota or corn crop in Illinois is eaten
up in few days. There is crop sub
iect to blight, mildew, rust, and inroads
by a thousand agents of destruction,
that is of infinitely greater intrinsic
value than all these, and yet the de-
struction of which does not attract one
half our attention.
Il refer to the children and young
people growing up in our cities and vii
lages-a crop for which all other crops
are grown. ! do not marvel at the fiery
zeal of the reformer, who recognizes
mans intrinsic value and sees that val
lie being constantly and terribly depre-
ciated by agencies directly under the
control of society.

"See his clumsy handling of rude
stone implements! Then examine the
delicate workmanship of the marvellous
designs in gold and silver ornaments,
and the exquisite tracery of the great
masterpieces of painting and sculpture,
that are the work of his hands. All the
glory and triumph of the nineteenth
century was potential in the genius OF
our savage ancestors, who hunted and
fished and made war under the shadows
of the primeval forest.

AN INTERESTING STATEMENT.

Mir. Ben L.Bear says he has at last dis covered a positive cure for dyspepsia For years,' said the above druggi 4 yesterday, 'I have been waiting fer some one to discover a remsdy that really will cure indigestion and dys- ueosia.
 A short time ago I learned that a new remedy called "Pepsikola" had been placed on the market. and on investigation l found that at last there is remedy that surely will cure.
 'I laid in big supply because l knew that as soon as people began to realize what a remarkable remedy Pelsikola is. there would be a big de- mand for it, and it is selling ever be- yond my expectations"
 It is not often that q druggist sells a remedy with the positive guarantee that it will cure, but unless Pepslkola does cure you of nervousness, dig zy spells. sour stomach, coat5d tongue, palpitation, biliousness, headaches. an other symptoms Of dyspepsia, MT. Bear will hand you back your money cheer fully and without argument.
 Pepsikola is also grand nerve tonic and is sure to help all who feel run down and worn out because of the de- bilitIting effects of the hot weather.
 No one should really hesitate on trying a twenty-fve-cent box of Pepsikola, as it will not cost you a penny should it fail to relieve and cure tEe very worst case of indigestion and dyspepsia.

There would be plenty of time to send for the cor oner after an examination had been made Of the condition Of the corpse, Arriving at the hotel the doctor arl a sound that would have been mistaken for a battery of electric fans if it had not been for an irregular and snorting punctuation of the buZzing.
