Registrar overholt has made special ar
rangements to rave the state examination

The Normal offers courses in all the work

number are working toward this end.

DUTY OF THE HIGH SCHOOL.
The Wind-up I~nstitution for Major,
ity of Students.

The high school, says the Ohio State
Journal, should be made emphatically a
wind-up institution, since the great ma
jOrity of the youth go no further. Its
classic. its science, its history, its philoso-
ply should be so taught and generalized
as to give 20 each its appropriate influ-
ence upon the life OF the pupil. These
studies should be pursued not so much
for their knowledge as for their influence,
a distinction that every educator ought to
understand.
For instance, to be able to analyze a
flower, classify it, tell the function Of
each part, and so on, is knowledge to be
learned. but one comes short of the real
learning OF the flower, II he does not feel
In his heart Its beauty and harmony and
to see how close It Is to the stars, the
mountain, the river and the sunset. He
can get this In the high school, and he
doesn't have to go deep for II. Sometimes
they go so deep as to miss 1t. 1t depends
upon the teacher and the school; and the
school may be across the street from
where he lives. We do not deprecate the
broader opportunity; We exaIt the one that
is near at hand.

FOR BACKWARD PUPILS
Philadelphia Teacher Association

Makes Recommendation.
Strong arguments for the establishment
OF special schools for children who are men
tally, morally or physically defective, and
separate classes for those who are other
wise backward, are presented in a report
which has just been published by the Phil
adelphia Teachers association. The re-
port also contains the results of a recent
census Of the defective children in the pub
lie schools. This is the first definite in
formation on the subject from an authori-
tative source.
The census was taken under the direc-
ton Of DR.. A. c. Abbott Of the bureau Of
health. 1t was found that there are in the
city's schools 4,s40 children, or 81 per cent
of the total enrolment, who are 50 defective
that they require segregation, while there
are 6.e0s backward children who would
benefit by special instruction in separate
classes, associating, however, with the
other children during the play hours.
OF the f~eeble-minded pupils there are
twenty-eight in every 10000; Of the lncor-
rieibie and vicious children who are also
mentally deficient, there are also twenty
eight in every 10000; Of incorrigibles
normal mentally, there are seventy-two In
every 10000; OF backwar children requtr-
ing special treatment, 1856. and OF dull chill
dren, AIS in every 10000.

DEAN OF COLLEGE PRESIDENT
Distinguishing Traits of President
Angel of MichfRan.

Prof. Charles H. Cooley Of the University
Of Michigan, a son OF the late Judge
Thomas Cooley, and one who has known
President Angel all his life, has written
a characterization of DR.. Ans ell, at the
instance of Graham Taylor Of Chicago,
which was published in the Survey. This
was reprinted in the May number of the
Michigan Alumnus and from 1t the follow
ing extract is taken:
Shallow writer's and takers, astonlshed
at his influence over all sorts of men,
including legislators, have sometimes de-
scribed President Angel as a man of pro-
found and almost italian subtlety and
management. In fact there is nothing Of
the sort In him; IL there were his influ-
ence would be far less thar it is. His
nature is essentially simple and downright,
disliking indirect methods end always
trusting rather to principles than to man
ipulation. The sole foundation for the no.
ton in question Is a manner which can
be blandly impenetrable when he chooses,
and his frequent practice-much like that
of Lincoln-of avoiding unnecessary issues.
mo one understands better the value,
at times, of mastery inactivity, or has
more patience to practice II. Some people
decry a man who Will not declare himIelf
on one side or the other OF any and every
question which they themselves are agl-
tated about; but the more judicious know
that this capacity of reserve is a trait of
strong character, and one most useful to
the president Of a university supported By
public opinion. In no other sense Is Mr..
Angel the accomplished politician he is
sometimes represented TO be-"

wher Lid Wa Held Down

Now that most Of the colleges Of the
country have closed their doors for the
summer months, hundreds Of students will
be seeking to earn money to help pay their
way through the next school year.
Their means OF getting the coin will be
various. Some will remain In their home
town, assisting the village grocer or dry
goods merchant But the far greater num-
Der will have a prediction for ~canvassing
and will take to the road selling many
kind OF articles, Most popular canvassing
snaps" among the students will be the
stereoscopio views, Bibles and patent black
boards.
Each summer every college in the coun-
try sends out a large per cent Of its
students to sell goods on the road. In a
majority Of cases the fortune seekers pick
territory thai takes them several miles
from their home towns. Often they go into
other states to canvass.
Selling goods on the road during the
summer is not chosen by the students be-
cause Of its pleasant features, for It has
few. 1t is selected because IL is the most
profitable line Of work that can be found.
wher work at home will net a student bat
$50 or $40, canvassing will give him from
800 to $500 a month.

Some students start on the road and,
meeting with the hardships that the
"peddler'' has to face, quit before they
have earned any money. But the boys
with real nerve stick to the summer can
wasting work and make good.
The University of Nebraska has turned
out several students who have been exceed
ingly successful In the canvassing business
during their summer vacations. A year
ago one student sold views in the southern
part of Kansas and cleared $500 on three
months work. Another In one summer
made $500. This latter boy worked at the
view business for three years and next fall
will go to Harvard university, where the
money made in the view business will per-
NIT him to pay his way through the law
college.
Students who have been engaged in the
canvassing business say that selling views
is not as profitable as it used to be. Three
or four big firms have employed several
hundred students for the last ten years
in putting the Views out all over the
United States, until now most OF the
families are we'll stocked with pictures for
microscopes.
