Want Arts on High Grade.
Recommendation have recently been
made before committee of Congress in
regard 70 the Importance of certain de
partments of the public schools One
teacher Of much experience desired that
the departments of literature, music,
and art should be placed upon a higher
grade, and that the scale of compensa-
tion Of the teachers of these depart
ments should be greater than those Of
the manual training. domestic science,
and domestic art 1t seems rather as
tonisning that this recommendation
should have been made. and II is TO be
hoped ii will not obtain. since perfec-
ton in manual training. domestic
science. and domestic art is the founda-
tion Of the education and training Of the
pupils who attend public schools There
fore they should be placed on the same
plane as the accomplishments enumerat-
ed above. which are in no sense as es-
sential as the more practical and impor-
domestic science. and domestic art.
Teachers for these departments must
prepare as carefully as the teachers OF
other departments; they are required TO
pass special examinations before they
can secure employment, In all respects
as much is required OF them as CT
teachers in other branches.
Those fortunate enough 10 graduate
from the high schools have in some in
stances a better education for all prac-
teal purposes than many OF the college
graduates.
The wonderful achievements Of great
minds in the nineteenth century Will
doubtless be eclipsed in the twentieth.
The greatest minds that analyzed the
difficult questions and bore the burdens
OF the past would be unequal to the
task OF solving the problems Of today.

College Degree Mania

Greater Care Should Be Exercised to See

BY MRS. JOHN A. LOGAN.

We a~e rapidly nearing the season
when the public and private schools,
colleges. and universities will be send
ing out army of male and female
graduates Many of them will be very
proud Of having received degrees which
entitle them to add capital letters 70
their signatures; while others must be
contented with certificates and diplomas
setting forth that they have finished
the curriculum of their Alma Mater.
There is one great question that with
be asked: How much practical eduCa-
ton have these young men and women
and how well are they fitted TO take no
their life work. In nil too many in
stances the possessors OF these parCh>
ments have really no useful knowledge.
nor are they in anv sense ftteed for
careers that will bring them fame OF
enable them to contribute anything to-
ward the betterment or advancement OF
the world.
Mania for Degrees.
There has been sort Of mania for
degrees. They have been conferred al-
most ad !ibitum, and In many cases
have been most unworthily bestowed.

versities 70 be more careful in confer
ring degrees; they should he sure that
the recipients are worthy OF the honor.
and that they be not found wanting

Casper was in gala dress when
the train containing the delegates
from the southern and northern
counties rolled into that prosper
GUS city. A large arch, spanning
the main street and facing the
depot, had been erected and the
word 'Welcome" greeted the pro,
cession, as it marched up town,
headed by the Casper band.
The convention WAS not called
to order until 1870 that evening.
Chairman j. A. VanO rsdel raped
for order and Secretary X. 2. Full
Ter read the call for the conven-
ton. The regular committees
were appointed and, after a ten
minutes recess to give the commit
tee on credentials time to report,
the convention proceeded with the
regular order of business, which
was preceded by a very able adj
dress from the retiring chairman,
Hon. j. A. VanOrsdel.
BY the time the Carbon county
delegation had arrived at Casper
it had become convinced that it
was a Brooks convention, SO that
the name of Mr. Cosgritf was not
placed before the convention.
There was no delay in the pro-
ceedings. Governor Brooks was
nominated by DR.. Wilson of Cas-
per and his nomination seconded
by Carbon county, g. +. Winter

Lady Shoots Badger.

Miss Rhoda Moore is the owner
of a % rifle and has become quite
expert in its use. A family of
badgers have taken up their resi-
dence under the house occupied
by Mr.. and Mrs w. H. Greene.
and, SO far, have absolutely re-
fused to either vacate or paw any
portion of the rent of the house.
This refusal on their part to bear
their full share of the rent burden
led to disagreement and finally to
open warfare. The Greenes were
up in arms against the badgers
and the badgers were, as usual,
ready for any kind of an old scrap.
The other day one of the badger
family was caught mapping by
Hugh and Charles, and hemmed
in while Miss Frances went for
help. Miss Moore took her rifle
and when she got through there
was mourning in the badger fam
lily and one less to provide for dur
ing the coming winter.

Congressman Mondell were of the

he aver is, able, logical and con-

Mr. Mondell has a national repu-

nowhere so well as among his own
people and his return to the Goth
