with nature, contact with men,.
Time a when the public school concerned itself chiefly with teach
ing how to read to-day the problem is more one of teaching what to read
how to get that out of books which will help the individual to make a
living and to live.
The work of the schoo. should project itself into that of the library.
The need of a fuller understanding between teachers and library work
is becoming more and more obvious. Librarians should understand
the school and the needs of the children; a general knowledge of the
library and its methods should be one of the requirements for receiving
u teachers certificate.
The library should be truly a university of the people and should
have the same fostering care of the state as the public school. State sup
port and control of the library does not repress local initiative and inter-
est. AS in its aiding of the public school, the policy of the state with
regard to the public library would be to help those communities that help
themselves. The free school book system and the travelling library are
powerful allies in the library movement. There should be a central
authority exercising such control in the purchase of books Is would mean
the getting of only the best and the frustrating of the manipulations Of
mere book agents. All librarians, educators and phnanthropists should
cooperate A campaign for the broader culture should be carried On
from Legislature to remotest district. This is a timesaving age. How
will all the time saved advantage us if W are ignorant Of its value and
unable to spend it proftably? The school must teach how to W. time
in getting the gt of the newspaper. Although valuable, newspapers
cannot take the place Of more purposeful and large literature. 1t is ours
by use of present opportunity to open highways to fullness of life in the
future.

|Thr TrarArr'H &trlr-
rHt Compensation
BY PRESIDENT GEORGE w. NASH.
or the Northern Normal and Industrial School,
Aberdeen. S. d.

Syracuse learned in his declining years that the teacher enjoyed com.
pensations not weighed in the steeJyards O balanced in the ledger If
the merchant.
The teachers best fortune is of that invisible sort that makes the
posessor happy, content and unenvied. Than this life has no higher re-
ward for any man. Measured by sentimental considerations, his rewards
are substantial and enduring. "To give subtiity to the simple; to the
young man knowledge and discretion" is the divine commission of the
schoomnder, and he who sincerely sets his heart to the development and
uplifting task imposed cannot fail to reap a rich return of satisfaction as
he beholds the magical fruning of his honest planting.
The complacency due to the development of the intelligent and moral
citizen, the eXhlaraton wrought by the expressed gratitude of pupils,
the Joy and success of those whose lives have in u sense been nodded NV
his hands, are delectable commodities in his store not purchasable in the
coin of the realm. Bacon put 1t well when lie said: "The pleasures of
the intellect are greater than the pleasures of the senses" and these intel
lectual pleasures are in a peculiar degree to be reckoned among the school
masters compensations.
He who teaches is best taught" and the opportunity afforded the
teacher to perfect himself in scholarship is no small element in the exta
financial compensation of his position. The teacher who does not dailv
lind lis life richer IN intellectual attachments while with pride and low
he watches the intellectual unfolding of his pupils has wretchedly miasd
hi calling.

Cowboys Can't Get Their Mail.

Laramie, Wyo.-Some confusion has
arisen here in the changing of one of
the star mail routes to train service
between this city and Centennial Inc
the mountain postoffices. Under the
star route service ranchmen living
along the line had arrangements with
the mail carrier to leave their mail at
certain places.
In one instance a number of ranch
men built a little house for the accom-
mediation of the mail bags, where the
outgoing mail vas left, the pouch
opened and the mail distributed. Here
the ranchmen would come and get
their mail. When the service was
transferred to the railroad the shanty
was moved to the road and some of the
ranchmen are now without mail serv-
ice except a long drive to either Lara
mic or Centennial. The matter has
been referred to the p%ostofiice depart
ment for adjustment. 1t is probable
that p~ostoffices will be established in
at least three stations on the new rail
road and wagon roads opened to them.

Oyster Bay, N. UT was A o'clock

their sleepelss vigils, patrolled the ap-
proaches to the abode of the chief ex-
ecutive. The President peacefully
slumbered, without even a nature fake
dream to disturb his rcpose.

crouching behind a bush.
A scraping, grinding noise could
be heard, as though a heavy body was
being drawn across the roof. The Sc
cret service men crept forward. Tho
noise awakened President Roosevelt
n members of his household.
AS the sleuths drew near they got
out their revolvers. Agent Sauter
| climbed to the shoulders of his com
panion n peered owe the edge of
the roof.
Two tiny balls of red fire gazed at
him through the darkness and he
caught a glimpse of two rows of sharp
white teeth. Next instant a furry
body darted across the roof and dis
appeared over the other side. Sauter
and Richie gave chase, but they could
pursue only to the edge of the woods.
The cracking of twigs could be heard.
1T was a bear!" calculated both
sleuths in establishment.
President Roosevelt came out to
see what had disturbed his rest. He
could hardly believe that a zeal had
visited him. The secret service men,
not wishing to be stamped as nature
takers, carefully guarded the ground
where the bear jumped from the roof
until daylight. and sure enough, bear
tracks were found.
There are several pet bears near
Oyster Bay, and it is believed one of
them escaped and went to visit the
animals friend.

The Simple Life.

Wellington was one of the earliest
opponents of the simple life. His
sleeping chamber was plainness and
simplicity itself. He always slept
on a small campbell, was aver temper
ate and careless in his diet, mt fire.
q~uently stated that he believed his
good health was due to the three
years he spent under canvas in India,
when he ate little but rice and drank
scarcely any wine. says the New York
Weekly. He continued to eat rice to
the day of his death. He ate 1t with
meat and almost with everything, and
his Intimate friends took care always
to place a dish of rice on the table
when he dined with them. He scarce
ly knew one wine from another. and
could not discern bad butter from
good. His Indifference in the matter
of food was proverbial, a contrast to
the present day. when diet forms one
of the principal subjects of

WYOMING HAPPENINGS
Baggs a Booming Town.

Cheyenne, Wyo.-C. e. W%antland,
land agent of the Union Pacific, re-
turned here from a visit to Baggs, Sar-
atoga and other southern Wyoming
towns. He is enthusiastic over that
section, and says the Bags country is
equal if not superior to the Twin Falls
and Snake river sections of Idaho. He
lookws for rapid development in the
Baggs section during the next year or
two.
The Union Pacific is running two au-
tomobile stages between Wamsutter
and Baggs. Preparations are being
made to are for a large crowd or peo-
pie at Baggs on September 9Th, when a
large tract of lane is to be opened to
settlement under a canal just COM
pleted.
Mr.. Wantland speaks in the highest
terms of the Saratoga & Encampment
railway, and of Saratoga. He looks
upon Saratoga as a coming hot springs
cit of the West, and expects it to rival
Hot Springs, Arkansas, in a few years.
The medicinal qualities of the water
are superior to any yet discovered, and
a large company has been formed to
bottle the water and place it on sale
throughout the country. The same
company will enlarge the baths, beau
tify the grounds, erect hotels and do
other things to make Saratoga a great
health resort.
MI. Mainland says the fishing and
hunting about Saratoga are unsur-
passed in n section of the West. 1t
is now the only place in the West
where the big rainbow can be caught
easily.

Rendered Blind From Fall.

Laramie, Wyo.-A Greek section la
borer fell from a handcar at Howell,
sustaining a conclusion of the brain.
When his companions brought him
here to be treated it was found that he
was totally blind from the accident.
He could not distinguish light from
darkness and 1t is feared the accident
may result fatally or in permanent to-
tai blindness. The case is unusual, as
the accident seemingly was of not
much importance until the blindness
vas noted.
Roy Musser, ar employe at the roll
ing mills, rested his left hand on a bolt
heading m-chine while he drank a cup
full of water handed him by a compan-
ion, and the ends of two of his fingers
were nipped off by the squaring dies
of the machine.

Preparing for Next Stock Show.

Denyer.-Nearly 500. 600 has been
raised for the premium list of the
Western Stock Show Association, and
the list and rules are now ready for
distribution. The next show will be
held in Denver from January goth to
18th, inclusive. Preparations are now
being made to make this years show
much larger and better than the last
one.
The show this year will be nationaI
in character, but certain rules and reg
ulations have been mad by the asso-
citation that provide for special classes
of breeding cattle. The fat cattle d.
vision is open only to feeders west of
he ninety-ninth degree of longitude.
Several new classes have been added
this year that will make the show more
interesting. One is, for the best fat
steer raised and fattened west of the
ni~nety-ninth degree of longitude, and
having won a first or second prize at
any state or county fair in 1907. An
other is for the best fat steer under
four years old owned and fed by a boy
under Is years of age. The steer must
have been the property of the boy for
at least four months prior to the
show.
A new feature in the horse division
oil the show will be a prize for carload
lots Of range horses, twenty horses to
be called a carload. An auction will
be held after the show at which the
horses can be sold is so desired.

Big Birds on Small Wings.

oi9 iTC OH oFndI VVI1As.
In the attempt to discover some
universal law of bird flight, scientists
have disclosed concerning a number
of species a most puzzling paradox,
perhaps the most mysterious of the
enigmas that the subject presents,
says o writer in ~Everybody's Maya
zine. 1t is that in a number of birds
and insects the size of the wings de-
creases in proportion to the increase
in size of h body of the flying crea-
ture. The Australian crane, for in
stance, weighs over 300 times more
than the sparrow, but in proportion
has only ~one-seventh the wing area
of the smaller bird. This curious fact
is equally striking If we compare birds
with insects. If the gnat were In
creased in size until it was as large as
the Australian crane n If the wings
of the insect were enlarged to main
tain the proportion they now bear to
its body, they would be about $50
times larger than the cranes. 1t re-
quires 1862 square feet of wing area
per pound to float the bank-swallow,
but to sustain the tawny v%ulture. a
monster bird in comparison, requires
only IS of a square loot of wing sur
face per pound of body. The albatross,
Weighing IS pounds, has a spread of
wing of IL feet and 6 inches. while the
trumpeter swan, weighing rs pounds.
has a spread of wing of only eight
feet. The stork weighs eight times
more than the pigeon. but in proper
ton has only half as much wing SUI.
