Junior boys of the Courier. | want to
tell them about an Anti-Profane club
we boys have organized. We have a
president and secretary and meet once
a week at the home Of some boy. Aft

guessing things. Generally nam

corn to pass around. We have to sign
a pledge to not swear, and most Of us
promise to not use tobacco.
We have twenty-nine boys in our
club and more coming.
We have grand times. Don't some
Of you fellows want to start such a
club?

School Notes.

BY W, T. Darlington. State Superintendent.
There is one requirement OF law
that school boards ought to enforce
now, just as the schools close. The
teacher is not entitled to the last
months salary until every report Is
properly made. The term report
consists OF more than enrolement,
attendance and hardness. Ii must,
under the law, include a detailed
statement OF whateach child studied,
how far he progressed and how we'll
he did his work.
This is the season for school CON-
mencements First came the closing
OF the rural schools after six, seven
or eight months terms, then the
rural final examinations and grsdu.
ations by county. In many counties
graduation is made a great school
rally day. 1t begets interest and en-.
thusissm In the schools. Every
county should make much Of rural
school graduation. II will mark an
epoch in the lives Of many country
boys dgirls and tend hold them
In school longer and to more faithful
effort while In school.
In recent years, standards OF eff.
cheney In teachers advanced at the
rate Of ten per cent q year. The only
way q teacher can keep abreast Of
the progress is to spend a summer
now and then in q good summer
school. All the State Normal
Schools and the Teachers College
maintain high grades OF work. No
teacher will make mistake in attend
ing any Of them. Besides the excel.
lent opportunities and grades tc
raise certificates. In due time thu
teacher can finish q good normal
training and thus secure profession
al recognition.

Prominent Man Killed BY Patrol

San Francisco, April 23.-H. c.
Tilden, one OF the most prominent
members of the General Relief Com
mittee, was shot and slmostinstant-
~ killed in his automobile about -
O'Clock at night while returning from
Menlo Park by men supposed to be
members of the citizens patrol.
A coachmsn who was in the au-
tomobile, was cut in the face by a
bullet and another ball pierced the
seat and struck r. g. Seaman, act
ing Lieutenant OF the Second Com.
psny OF the Signal Corps, in the back.
The force OF the bullet had been
spent, and Seaman, who had been
detailed on special duty with Tilden,
pulled the bullet out OF his cartridge
belt.
The shooting occurred at Twenty
second and Guerrero streets. Three
men, suspected Of having done the
shooting, were arrested and turned
over to General Funston at Fort
Mason.
The three men under arrest are E.
s. Boyneton, q telephone inspector
In the employ Of the Pacific States
Telephone Company; George W.
Simmons and Malcolm Vance. They
are all young men and members OF
the citizens patrol.
Boyneton declares that he did not
see the Red Cross flag on Tilden's
