of study open to children in the rural
schools, offering books as the only
sources of knowledge and words as
the only stimulus to mental activity
completely ignoring environment as
a source Of knowledge, a stimulus to
thought, and an inspiration to action
are not the best for any who attend
these schools, irrespective of whether
they go from them to engage in their
life's work or continue their studies
in other schools.
Preparation for life is a term often
used, and in some quarters 1t is urged
that the elementary and secondary
schools should be planned to furnish
such preparation. It should be recog
nized That the school is only one
factory in the education OF an in.
dividual; and that at best Whatever
preparation it affords for life must be
partial-that it is beginning-but
it must not be forgotten that it is i'm
portant that this preparation be we'll
begun.
This committee does not hesitate to
say that in it's Judgment the rural
schools which train nearly one-half
the school population OF this country,
so far as school training goes, Should
definitely recognize the fact that the
major portion of those being trained
will continue to live upon the farm;
and that there should be specific,
definite, technical training fitting
them for the activities OF farm life.
Such schools will not make farmers
nor housekeepers, hut they will in
terest boys and girls in farming ana
housekeeping and the problems con-
nected with these two important voca.
TONS
The committee further believes, and
does not hesitate to say, that course
of study framed with the end in view
here stated furnished a knowledge
content of far greater value to the
country child than courses OF study
as at present organized; and further,
that the mental training involved in
the mastery of the course of study as
modified by the Introduction OF the
Industrial phases of education is OF a
higher order than that resulting from
a mastery of the present course or
study. 1t is OF higher order, be.
cause it deals with wider range or
subjects; with a consideration OF
things in their relation to each other,
to other things, and to- the individual;
with the development, modification,
and adaptation OF these things to
serve the needs OF man-and this
largely through physician doing, con-
trolled and directed bv mental activity
to useful ends.
The committee believes that the
training offered by the mastery OF a
course of study winch includes the in
dustrial phase OF education Will
broaden the outlook of pupils, AMI be
cause of this wider view will open up
and make attractive lines OF work
upon the farm which otherwise would
not appeal to them; that it will de-
velop self-dependence and moral
stamina, through sustained effort for
worthy ends; and that for the boy or
girl who does not remain upon the
farm it is Superior to the training
offered through the medium OF the
present course or study in ruraf
schools.

1t is doubtful if any of the COM

than one that befell Mr.. Menzies, one
of the members of the Transvaal team.

Omahas police force is breathing
easier now that Pat Grove, kidnaper,
is in the hands of the law and in no
immediate danger of shooting the
heads off any number Of them, as he
has often threatened to do if they
ever tried to capture him, says an
Omaha correspondent of the New York
Herald.
And from Groves past record every
policeman on the force believed i'm
plicitly that he would carry out his
threat if he ever got the chance While

public as the man supposed to have

HE BEGAN FIRING WITH REPEATING GUN.
kidnapped the young son of Edward
Cudahy, meat packer, and secured a
ransom of $4,000 in gold for the boy,
the police departments of the big cities
remember him for his alleged part i'll
various desperate holdups and rob-
berries. While the Cudahy affair was
not the greatest of his supposed ell
terprises, at least it was the most
spectacular, and it brought Pat before
the world.
One of Groves early hauls was re-
ported to have been made in Denver,
when he is said to have robbed pawn
brokers' shop of $4,000 in diamonds
and escaped. These diamonds are said
to have been sold, one or two at time,
to Omaha and South Omaha pawn
shops, and the money went about as
easy as it came. He was never pun
iShed.
At train robbing Grove was reported
as an expert and is thought to have
led more holdup parties than any 9th
er man in the country. His favorite
stamping ground for this class of work
was near st. Joseph, Mo-, and he is
credited with record of three success
full robberies in one year. All of these
were committed on the Burlington rail
road.
But Pat, it is said, tried this once too
often, and as result he came to grief.
This, too, was on the Burlington road
Just below Council Bluffs, Ia. The
Kansas City train on that road pulled
out about II o'clock one night, and
half an hour later the train was held
up. The express messenger was COM
manded to open the doors of his car,
and he did SO, but instead of throwing
out the through safe he opened his door
and began firing with a repeating shot
gun. Groves companion was fairly
riddled, and Grove escaped in the
darkness. The dead man was never
identified but is said to have come
from st. Joseph.
A westbound Northwestern train was
held up several years ago just outside
Of Chicago, and large amount of mon
ey was secured. Grove is said to have
been the robber, with a couple of his
pals.
A southbound Louisville and Nash
vile train was held up below Hender-
son, KY, one night. 1t was a success
full raid, and the robbers were never
caught, but if Grove gets a few years
longer in the penitentiary than he
thinks is coming to him several years
might, with truth, say some, be APP
piled in expiating this crime.
One Of the most daring robberies at
tributed to Grove was that of an ac
tress on a Northwestern train in Min
nesota. Diamonds and jewels worth
$4,000 were secured, and the thief
dropped off the train at way station.
The theft was discovered soon after
ward, and as Grove was the only per-
son missing from the car he was sus-
pected. His description was recog-
nized, and trap was set for him.
1t was discovered that man answer
ing his description had sent small
grip from a Minnesota town to a Chi
cago pawnbroker. The pawnshop was
watched, and two weeks after the rob
berry Grove walked in. Within the
shop stood a detective, while on the

Coughs, Colds and Constipation.

Few people realize when taking
cough medicines other than Foleys'
Honey and Tar, that they contain OPP
iates which are constipating besides
being unsafe, particularly for chill
dren. Foley's Honey and Tar contains
no opiates, is safe and sure, and Will
not constipate. Don't be imposed upon
by taking substitutes, some are dan
gerous. A kidney or bladder trouble
can always be cured by using Foley's
