great environment. We owe our
present conditions to the fact that
we have so much territory In
which to spread. Food, clothing
and shelter are the prime requisites
of life. The school environments
are temperature, lighting, cleahli
ness, ventilation and seating.
Impatience accomplishes nothing.
Ply sical development is of the
greatest Importance Health is
far better than anything that
education can give us. Every
schoolroom should be carefully
ventilated. Every schoolroom
should have ventilating shaft,
a jacket over the stove and hole
in the floor under the stove.
Mr.. Meck's next lecture was on
"Mensuration of plane surfaces, -
and was one of the most helpful of
all the institute. Mr.. Meek
declared their was no need to learn
lot of rules. One rule stated in
three words, would find the area
of any plane surface. Mr.. Meek
gave an outline of MensuratiOn
which made this subject appear
very simple.
Mr.. Richardson followed with 8
talk on Geography, taking as his
subject "Latitude and Longi-
tude." He emphasized the import
ance of latitude and longitude in
the location of places and the
different countries. There are
two methods of location, viz {:
"Mathematical," which has refer
ence to the latitude and longitude,
and "Relatiye," which has refer.
ence to it's location in connection
with other places. By learning
carefully the countries crossed by
the Equator and Tropic we can
very readily form a fairly correct
idea of the location of any place.
The fortieth parellel is the great
historic parallel.
EVENING SESSION
Mr.. Richardson delivered his
lecture on "Shakespeare's Men
and Women" at the Presbyterian
Church. The large audience
greeted Mr.. Richardson, and his
lecture was we'll received. Mr..
Richardson has specialized along
lines of literature and is somewh It
of a poet himself, although
modesty does not permit him ia
quote from his own work.
Friday morning opened with
music and responsive scriptural
reading led by Superintendent
Silverthorne.
Miss Meyers conducted the
musical exercises which consisted
of singing several old favorite
songs, such as America and Annie
Laurie.
Mr.. Meek took up the subject
of "Mensuration." Mr.. Meek
declared that the fellow who
hadn't made any mistakes was to
be born some time in the future.
Teaching consists In keeping the
mentnl machinery In order and
the duty of the teacher lie to keep
the machinery we'll oiled. Mr..
Meek made mensuration appear to
be very simple subject.
Mr.. Richardson give a lecture
on "History Supplemented by
Literature. The course of En-
pire westward takes it's way.
No one can gives the reason
why. The discovery of America
was the cause 0f the ruin Of the
countries of Southern Europe.
The study of history must be
supplemented by the reading a
literature.
Mr.. Meek leetured on the
especial Senses" which close d
the forenoon's work.
AFTERNOON
Mr.. Richardson discussed the
Twilight Zpne," and Mr.. Meek
took up the subject OF "school

regular program. The Institute
then proceeded to elect its oldeers

STRANGE ANIMAL
AROUSES CURIOSITY
Thought Lynx Is Roaring
Near Town. .--

Milton. Ind, Dec. 1S.-A strange an
imal in the vicinity of Milton is
arousing the curiosity, as well as no
lttle alarm among farmers and hunt
ers. A few evenings ago the animal
attacked a bulldog of Mr.. Fritz. about
three miles south of town, and was so
vicious that the dog escaped to the
barnfi, where he rename dtremhling,
and could not be induced to come out
Tuesday evening. Harry Murley and
Earl Doddridge. of Milton, were out
with their dogs in the same vicinity.
The dogs were ahead. and suddenly
set up terrific howl and were heard
to be fighting furiously. The young
men hurried TO the scene, but the light
of the lantern caused the animal to
flee. 1t is said that its track shows
claws about three inches long. The
common theory is that it is lynx

ALIAS USED BY i.
AGAR RECOGNIZED
Mother-in-LaW's Name Is
Adopted by Him.

Princeton, Ind, Dec 1S.-That the
man arrested at Harrington. Texas, is
Henry E. Agar. the alleged embezzler,
who: was said to have drowned in the
Wabash River two years ago. has been
further established by receipt of the
information that Agar had been trav-
cling under the name of Conner while
in San Bcnito. Texas.
Conner was the maiden name of Mrs.
kgar's mother and also that of one OF
Agar's former business associates, and
much significance is attached to the
fact that the Texas prisoner was using
it. This fact has convinced some of
the more skeptical that the prisoner
is Agar

TO the Editor Of The Dispatch:
I wish to thank the people of Lex
ington county for the interest they
manifested in helping me to bear my
trouble and in bringing the murder
e5s of my wife to justice. I am glad
they were caught, speedily tried and
executed, all in an orderly and law
full manner.
I don't know when or where the re-
port of my having married again
could have gotten a foundation. l
thank my friends so much, however,
for saying that they knew the rumor
was not true, thereby stopping the
circulation of such news. Nothing
has been, or ever will be, further
from my thoughts than the doing of
something inconsistent with the most
intense sorrow for the sad and vio-
lent death of nay wife.
