Feeling of Duty.

Feeling of Duty.
 He made plain that the questions of modern education bear largely upon inn pressing our youth with feeling of duty and keen sense of responsibility to the state and the community. He urged the teachers to train their pupils In good cit izenship. He suggested for example that they organize their pupils in a war against flies and mosquitoes. "I believed that Is better civics than to know the names of congressman. This is life
 What the world wants of us is willing ness and ability to show in our lives the real and true value of living.
 Modern eduoation," he said, "seeks to confirm the value of the study of nature and the world about us. She offers riches every morning, but to the idle blockhead nature Is poor and servile and inhospit- able"
 Dr. Dresslar also suggested that modern education stands for higher spiritualism. Not less of scientific, honest thinking, but more of it will bring to us purer. truer faith. Intellectual emancipation from superstition is the highest of duties. Let us learn to hail with delight every new vision of truth, and with this faith the day will come and doubt will have fed Each day will bring to us its nobler and truer and diviner lesson"
 pr. Ida Bender Speaks.
 Miss Ida C. Bender Ph. D., supervisor of primary grades, Buffalo, an authority on hygiene of national reputation, deliv- cred an address on Physical Factors in Education
 pr. Bender is a woman of charm. with a fine voice and good delivery.
 She began by taking the teachers back to their class rooms, and asked if they had any pupils suffering from disease any that was defective. abnormal, back ward, and urged that there be some recog- hilton of 1t and some provision made for it.
 She told of the Educational Conference Hygiene held in London and followed the line of Dr. Dresslars talk on the 1m- portance of living for ones fellows.
 After describing the work In northern cities she concluded that the training of the school is dependent upon the physical state, and the mental teacher needs the help of the school physician and medical inspector.
 She took up consecutively the changes in the body of the child and urged regard for their needs. You can't make a mistake without paying for it." Another idea elaborated was that young children must not be forced to things which they are not able to do. Her discussions of the proper treatment of infectious dis eases and healthy children were both unique and original.
 Dr. Dender closed her able effort with this assertion :re''We do not know to what achievements the human body and man may rise. but through the children is the way"

bunal and if Attorney General Stirl-
ing expects to personally collect the
fourteen million dollars sued for he
will have to get himself reelected in
the meantime, as his present term will
expire in two and one-half years.
But the attorney general does not
expect to actually collect the full
amount sued for, although he is conf
dent of judgement for it. He realizes
that many of the 70 defendants will be
unable to pay the penalty or anything
like it. In fact, it is believedthat in
the event of a final decree for the
state as prayed for, every concern in
the list would be bankrupted, and it
is doubtful if a single one of them
could pay its share of $4,000. Many
of them probably have property worth
that much or more, but not above
their liabilities. But the securing Of
judgments would place the defendants
in the position of being perpetual
debtors of the state and force them to

money they could make, or else re-
