City Superintendent F. L. Bur-

Since written composition in con-

the bulk of written work for the
Elementary school according to this
scheme. l shall present a brief out
line of that work gathered from my
observation of some authority who
has put 1t in practice, even at the
risk of being tedious and uninterest-
ing. This Is intended only as a
outline of written work. and supple
ments the larger amount of oral
work.

of written work; the material of a

The Monument.

1t is gratifying to realize that
the Grand Army ladies are meeting
with splendid success in their un-
dertaking to erect a soldiers monu-
ment here. The final result Of
their efforts will be a lesson in pa
triotism every time eyes are turned
toward the monument Many per-
sons have contributed literally to the
cause and still others ought to share
in its glory. The shaft is to be
placed on the grounds by September
20, but 1T is not likely the unveil-
ing will take place for some time
afteF that. unless the necessary
funds have all been raised.
The unwilling will be an auspic-
ious event. attracting thousands of
visitors to the city as prominent
speakers from other points will be
on the program. Possibly. the Pres
ident of the United States will he

In view of all this those who have
not yet contributed to this fund
should do so at once The contri-
buttons may be left at the Telegram
office and receipts will be given
therefor.

In concluding this paper a word
should be added on the practical
phase of written work. Aside from
the training it gives in facility and
accuracy of thought and expression,
it has an immediate value in daily
use. The trend of this discussion
has been to emphasize the points
needing especial stress in school
work, and to suggest remedy for
some practices that render written
work too burdensome. But it is
not claimed that it should be cast
aside at any point in the school. nor
that it is other than essential art IN
daily practice through life. 1t is
essential to the school room in de-
veloping all subjects and correlating
them into one whole. 1t becomes
so useful in the later years of the
school that it is a fair bases for de-
termining real progress in menta;
growth and power. In the business
world it is an art that renders the
daily task easy and efficient in mat
tiers OF clerical detail. In the field
of literature it is chief instrument
of enjoyment and happiness. To

The TEACHERS institute.

This week Clarksburg has the
pleasure of entertaining the annual
Harrison county institute for teach
ers. The institute is an event of i'm
portance in school work and Is al
ways looked forward to with much
happy expectancy. both by its men,
bers and the residents of the place,
in which it is held.
Able instructors have been secur-
ed and the state superintendent has
prepared and had printed an inter-
esting program in pamphlet form,
with much information relating to
school work. No pains have been
spared by the school authorities to
make the institute profitable and
pleasant to all its members and the
many visitors who are wont to be
present.
The success OF the present insti-
tute, therefore. now depends largely
upon the teachers themselves. They
will profit by its sessions according
to the interest they take. That all
are eager to listen and learn the
Telegram has not the shadow of a
doubt, and it is its hope that the
present institute will prove itself of
great usefulness and have a far
reaching effect for good In the cause
of education.
On behalf of the citizens generally
of Clarksburg the Telegram extends
the teachers and instructors most
hearty welcome and hopes their So
iourn here this week will be pleas
ant period of their lives.

This is a whiskerless generation. says
the ST. Louis Post-Dispateh. Nine men
out Of every ten wear neither boards nor
mustache, and the ratio between the
smooth shaver and -mustached men on
the one hand and the bearded men on the
other is one to one hundred or even
greater.
The Spanish-American war called a
brief revival of boards. the Van Dyke
being a fad among military men, and
few young men who did not serve in the
army but who followed the lead set by
the soldiers. But the old-fashiOned bushy
beard. or FURNISHES" and the goatee,
are under the ban. Boards to-day are
worn almost exclusively by elderly men.
The beard naturally is a sign of
strength and fighting procliv!ties- The
buffalo who roamed the plains, led the
herd on its wanderings, headed the charge
when enemies were met, wore a black
goatee-Hke cluster of long hairs under his
great chin. The lion has a tawny beard
and great shaggy name, which add much
to the feroc.ty Of his appearance. Male
goats and deer have very well-developed
boards. especially the elk. Many Of the
more powerful of the ape and monkey
tribes are similarly adorned by nature.
The ancient Saxons and the Mortimer
wore their hair flowing and uncut and
long boards fell upon their great mus
cuIar chests. II was the sign OF serf
OF slave with them to cut the hair or
the beard. The free necked man" and
the warrior was as proud of the profu-
sion of hair on his face and head as he
was Of his courage.
But the ancient Roman who stands out
among the men of all history as the arch
type Of personal and national force was
smooth shaver ana his hair was worn
short
In England. Germany. and Russia the
beard is worn most. 1t has not been a
very popular adornment in America ex-
cept during the civil war. and for some
years after the war, by men who took
part i'm the events Of thatl time. Boards
and war go together Men wear boards
when they go to fight. But the japanese.
who administered such a drubbing TO
Russia, are "a beardless nation.
This is an aseptic age. The microbe is
a great bug-a-hoo of our modern civiliza-
ton Physicians who are the only per
sons that ever really saw micTObe de-
clare that the beard and the mustache
are regular happy homes for these in
visible enemies of the flesh. The doctors
tell us that germs grow in FURNISHES"
like tadpoles in a stagnant pool. That
is one of the greatest reasons why faci-
hirsute adornments have been moved
from the cheeks and chins OF our coun-
trymen.
Few viii heed the medical man when
he pronouuces against the kiss. the great
JOY Of so many lives. But many will heed
him when he assails the germ-laden lam
brequins. No man wants flowing beard
