hall The Illuminating apparatus was
loaned by the O. Torrison company,
While other firms and individuals gave
the use of rugs, decorations, furniture,
etc

EDUCATIONAL.
By w f. LARSON.

Teaching is the noblest of all pro-
fessions, but it is the sorriest of trades;
and nobody can hope to succeed in it
who does not throw his whole heart in
to it, and who does not find a positive
pleasure as he watches the quickened
attention and heightened color Of u
little child as he finds new truth
dawning upon him, or as some latent
power is called forth. j. c. Fitch

Perhaps no speaker ut the meeting
gave more practical suggestions, and
really more inspiration to the average
teacher than Supt O. j. Kern Of Rock
ford, III He gave two talks; one on
How to Create Public Sentiment with
Reference to the improvement of the
Country School, given before the County
SuperintendentS section, and the other
on The Educational Uplift for the

showed the great possibilities of the

Among the speakers at the meeting of
the Wisconsin State Teachers associ-
alton was A f. Winship, Editor of the
New England journal of Education,
who spoke on "A Just Appreciation of
IA Teacher After explaining carefully
the meaning of the terms orcUp0ijOu,
huic, olicc caiiiug and protcNSjo,L he
showed how education is II profession,
and those who make teaching merely
an occupation fail to realize the great
importance of the work. The most
noted professional men are in love with
their profession and are not simply
money makers, The worlds greatest
scientists are not considering how much
personal gain they are to receive for
their work The great men in the legal
profession also show devotion to their
work which money alone could not
bring forth.
The speaker mentioned four things
which dre due the teacher. FIRST of all
are material conditions which include
sufficient salary to enable the teacher TO
live and grow in the work; second,
social appreciation. which Is very much
lacking in some places, especially in
larger cities; third. professional recogni-
ton. and fourth, II permanent peace of
mind He said Il do not plead for the
teacher | plead for the fifteen million
children attending the public schools of
the country We must put more
money into our schools and spend it
more wisely in order that these children
may be supplied with teachers who are
the strongest characters of the land
The money raised as taxes are ex-
pended in three different ways: first
for general expenses or administration
of the government: second, to take care
of the persons who because of their
weaknesses or vices are u menace to
society and third, for investments.
Under the first may he put salaries of
officials the second, iaIls asylums and
hospitals; and third parks and water
works The money used for education
al purposes, or schools, is always an in
vestment and should be so considered
No money pays 50 much As that put in
schools.

Thursdays Storm.

Thursdays weather was productive
of about everything in the way of a
storm, including during the day a
downfall of snow, sleet and rain, and
all united in producing most dis
agreeable day.
The storm began at about o'clock
in the morning with snow and increas-
ed rapidly in intensity SO that by noon
quite an amount of snow had fallen.
During the day the temperature rose
steadily. with the result that during
the afternoon the snow turned to sleet,
covering everything with thin coat
ing of ice that rendered pedestrianism
extremely uncertain.
Toward night the sleet in turn
changed to rain, which continued to
fall steadily during the evening.
i, The electrics were bothered some by
slipping rails during the latter part of
the afternoon, but regular trips were
made, though some of the cars were a
little off time.
