Shaking Up The Dry Bones

The above heading appears i'm the
Evening Sentinel a. the head of an
article regarding Sam Bettes' work in
Red Bluff, Cali. We publish the ar
ticle below
"Ilave you heard the Cow Boy
preacherp
That question is being asked on every
hand and when you hear Rev. Sam
Bettes once you will not forget it very
soon. He preached Sunday morning
and i'm the evening the Sunday School
room was crowded to its capacity.
1t is very fortunate that the new
pews have arrived and Rev. Brink
hopes to have them I'm place this week
The church will hardly be large enough
to hold the crowds, judging from the
interest Sunday night.
The Cow Boy preacher smashed Sun
day baseball and excursions. the saloons
and dancing square in the face, and
there is no mistaking his meaning, as
his language is direct and emphatic. if
not always elegant.
Rev. Beites is Baptist and many
of that denomination attended the
new Methodist Episcopal church Sun
day to hear him. He will hold meet
ings every evening for the next two
weeks and possibly longer, at the new
NJ. K. church"

Is Our School Making Good?

Occasionally l hear people say that
in spite of all the frills and furbelOws,
or rather because of them, the children
in the grades of our city and village
schools really have no better chance
than their cousins in the rural schools
and do not get as good foundation in
the common branches-the three Rs
as do the country children. / believe
that beside all the extras thrown in,
the town schools are giving better
foundation in the common branches
than ever before and far ahead of that
given by the country schools of today
or any other day regardless of the big
stories that | have heard of the good
old "Deestrick School,"
We have in the towns better teachers,
better equipment and infinitely better
organization and as evidence that the
results of our work, under these eX-
tremely favorable circumstances are
what could reasonably be expected we
submit the following
On the 9th and eth Of May an eighth
grade examination was held through
out the state and at the various places
in st. Clair county 248 pupils from the
rural schools assembled and wrote on
the examination. They all came with
certificates from their teachers stating
that they had completed the work Of
the eighth grade and were prepared to
take the examination. For months
these boys and girls have been drilled
on the things that the examination
deals with and they came expecting to
pass and hoping to enter some high
school next fall if successful. Their
ambition is certainly laudable one
and we are looking forward to the time
when conditions will be such that a
much larger percent of them can do
the first eight grades in the regular
time.
l looked over the 24S papers in arith-
metic, and marking as literally as pos
sible, found but 50 papers that merited
a marking of 20 per cent or above.
Being surprised at the results and
wondering if the examination possibly
was too hard, | gave the same ques-
lions to our eighth grade without Civ
ing any notice or chance for review,
and marked upon exactly the same
basis as the other papers. 20 per cent
of the class got 80 per cent or above,
Emma Richardson making grade of
100 per cent, and only one student re-
ceived less than "a per cent. This
student has been in the grade less than
month.
AS arithmetic is probably the best
taught subject in the ruralsschool and
is no better taught than other subjects
in our schools, we feel very well pleas
ed with the results of the comparison.
Our eighth grade teacher, Miss Ware,
certainly should be given much credit
for the splendid showing her students
made. n. j. Drouyor,

The grim specter of death turks In
every neglected case Of Asthma and Bron-
chitis. The delicate membrane lining Of
the air passages becomes irritated and in
famed with the continuous coughing
spells, and forms the best breeding-place
for consumption germs. Abbey Syrup,
which is prepared from a formula handed
down through the ages by the monks of
Sancto Paulo In Spain, has proved its won
derful efficacy as a permanent cure for
every form of lung trouble with a record
that has made IL famous throughout
Europe.
II not only allays the irritation, dimin-
fishing and finally stopping the cough al
together, but builds up and strengthens
the tissue and acts as a splendid tonic.
Even a single bottle has been known to
completely cure the disease. though In
more stubborn cases and those of long
duration, a longer treatment may be
necessary.
This is the original remedy and is
sold and personally recommended in

 So they pointed him to an ordinary grandstand seat and with the agility of men who love baseball and brook no ob stacles to enjoying the game he climbed nimbly over some intervening seats and sat down with a joyous air of anticipated triumph.

Not only did he applaud the good plays and feign a proper melancholy when a Chi- eago batter struck out, but he cracked peanuts, diffusing a pungent aroma about him, and he ate the kernels with visible relish. MT. Taft was doomed to See Chicago beaten when 1t would have pleased him to be regarded as a mascot but he is used to such perverse luck. He has experienced 1t on Yale field and at New London, and has gone away with a bleeding heart, although with a smiling face, as becomes a good loser. He rooted for Cincinnati during the game at Chicago, but a signal victory for Pitts burg was marked up on the bulletin board. However, these misadventures oc- cur to us all. and then the pendulum swings the other way. MT.
