Teachers Notes.

We ask that our teachers look
about their school to see what is
needed. Remember. it will soon be
time for the March meeting Of your
board and plans for the succeeding
year will be made. Do no attempt
to get all things needed. Select two
or three that will be most helpful,
then make your plea in a business
like manner 1t is generally admit
ted that teachers do not ask for
enough Such being the case in
general. is it too much to ask that
Delaware county teachers be an ex-
ception? Get the pupils and patrons
on your side and your director will
be easier to approach.
Plans are being made to hold a
few township meetings for parents
and pupils. 1t is expected that
teachers will be present and assist
in making the day a success. 1t will
be impossible to reach every town.
ship so we shall plan meetings fol-
such only as present favorable con-
ditions. 1t is expected that corn
contests will be held, likewise an
old-fashioned spelling school and Q
short program. The places and
dates Of meetings will be announced
later.-Delaware County Teacher.

To His Long Home.

Charles ID. Malvin, son Of Samuel
and Sarah Malvin, both deceased,
was born at Colesburg, Delaware
county, Iowa, in 1861, and was one
Of a family Of twelve children; six Of
whom survive him. He was taken
very suddenly, last Friday evening,
January 18th, with an attack of con
gestion of the brain. All that could
be done under the circumstances
was rendered but, after a few days
Of suffering he passed to his long
home, dying Tuesday morning, Jan.
g, 1906, at I o'clock. Charlie re-
ceived his preparatory education in
the common schools of this County
after which he attended school at
Hopkinton, Fayette and Valparaiso,
Ind, from which school he gradua-
ted from the department Of Law
with a class Of twenty-nine. During
the period of his active practice in
his profession he was frequently call
ed upon the stump during active po-
litical campaigns, in which capacity
he met with considerable success.
A year ago he became a member of
the Congregational church of Coles
burg and shortly before his death he
became member of the Christian
Endeavor. God in his his infinite
wisdom saw fit to call Charlie home
and silence and sorrow reign in that
desolate home. But ever DER the
heavy cloud of grief shines the bless
ed promise of joyful meeting on
the shores Of the better land. where
sorrow and pain never come and
death cannot part us more Yet
there is Joy in the words,of him who
has said:. N 5sfg
There is no death! The stars go down
To rise upon fairer shore,
And bright In Heavens jeweled crown
They shine forever more.
There is no death! An Angel form
Walks DER the earth with silent tread
lie bears our best loved things away,
And thsn we call them dead"
lie leaves our hearts all desolate;
He plucks our fairest sweetest flowers
rransplanted into bliss they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
and where he sees smile too bright,
Or heart too pure for faint or vice.
Lie bears 1t to that world SO bright
To dwell in Paradise.

fOrded him an opportunity of making
characteristic speeches than there
have been for several years. He is
opposed to the tendency of corpora
lions to monopolize trade and destroy
competition. and In the railroad rate
legislation and the propositions to in
yestigate combias tons of railroads
Mr.. Tillman has had his greatest OPP
portunities to attack corporations in
his inimitable manner of speech.
Tillman is nothing II not original
and picturesque. He can say things
on the floor of the senate that no
other man would dare utter. He ex-
cuses 1t On the ground that he is "a
plain, blunt man." When he first
came to the senate the sticklers for
senatorial proprlcty, like the late
Senator Hoar of Massachusetts and
Senator Plat OF Connecticut. would
take Tillman to task, for his almost
brutal form OF speech when referring
TO his colleagues or government Off
Gals. The senator would promise to
be good but on the next occasion his
temper would get the best Of him and
he would spit out words that were pa
tently supplementary. The mentors
Of the senate got tired finally of try
ing to reform the one-eyed iconoclast
from South Carolina and he is now
allowed his own sweet way, unless he
gets absolutely in3ulting.
Mr.. Tillman is now at home in his

his political fences. He Is candidate
for reelection next year, and already
considerable opposition has developed.
