+ j. WeishroG,

One of the saddest accidents in
recent years at the Bernice coal
mines occurred last Saturday when
Mr.. Joel Saxon was fatally injured.
While at work in the mines he was
caught beneath a fall of coal and
rock and when rescued by his fel
low workmen it was found that
both of his legs and arms were
broken and he was otherwise badly
injured. There was no hope, what
ever, for his recovery, and on Tues
day he passed away after endur-
ing intense suffering. Mr.. Saxon
had worked in the Bernice mines
or 20 years, and was one of the
most respected citizens of that place
being an honest and upright man.
He is survived by widow and
one son, Prof. Gordon Saxon, of

The Sullivan County Normal
School will be held i'm Dushore this
year. The School will open Monday
June %, and will continue four weeks
Prospective students are requested to
read the following carefully.
The work will be based entirely
upon the Illinois Course of Study.
If you own a copy of the Course do
not fail to bring it with you.
Text books will be used to supple
ment the Course, hence uniformity
of text books is not important.
Bring your own books if you are
supplied. A limited number will be
supplied with books without charge
if carefully used.
The purpose of this School is to in
crease the efficiency of the teaching
force of our County and give students
an opportunity of reviewing their
studies. 1nasmuch as the illinois
Course of Study has been adopted
throughout the county it is of pre-
eminent Importance that the teachers
thoroughly familiarize themselves
with it. No matter what grade of
certificate the teacher may hold, he
or she should not fail to make care
fnl, critical study of this Course,
which must be followed i'm the schools
The best teaching is that done by
those who are faithfully and intelli-
gently following this Course of Stu
dy, and it is always the best teachers
who are in demand.
Only those who are willing to work
are desired as students. The work
will require lots of hard work and
idlers will be out of place.
Despite the additional burden
Which it places upon him, the County
Superintendent, will supervise the
work and assist in the effort to in
crease the teaching power of those
who are intrusted with the life
interests of the boys and girls of the
County.
Remember, this school is not con
Quoted for profit. Every dollar re
ceived is expended for the expenses
of the school. After paying the in
structors II fair compensation for
their labor the rest is spent for aid
in carrying on the work. Cavin's
Orthography and smith outlines in
History have been purchased with
the balance left from last year and
will he furnished for use during the
school term.
Tuition: Four weeks, -; less than
four weeks, 81 80 per week.
Students desiring boarding places
and citiznus who desire boarders will
communicate with any member Of
the faculty or with the Superintend-
cni.
