State AppOrtlOnment.

Boise, Feb. 23.-The legislative APP
portionment bill promises to form
another bone of serious contention.
The total vote on governor is used as
the basis. This, however, will be OPP
posed and as a substitute the sugges-
ton will be made that the vote for the
republican candidate for governor be
used This, too, will be objected to
because OF the detection In the last
election in Ada and Fremont, both

DRILLERY'S MOTTO
IS THOROUGHNESS
Every Branch of Business
Methods Taught at This
School.

Occupying an entire building at New
York avenue and Eleventh street. the
Drillery claims to have the largest corps
of experienced instructors Of any busi-
ness school in Washington.
Within the last year the school has
been placed under the management Of
John r. Bethune, who has been a short
hand writer at the United States Senate
for the last ten years ano an instructor
az the school for a number Of years
Under Mr.. Bethune'S personal direction
the work OF the school has been mate
rally broadened, new courses OF study
added. and the institution made mod
ern school for drilling ald preparing for
commercial work.
"Thoroughness" IS tie motto OF the
Drillery and this is the principle on
which the school is conducted and
which the instructors say is the secret
OF its great success. The necessity Of
"thoroughness" in every line Of work IS
made evident by the instructors IN all
he classes. Business men know the
necessity Of this quality and deplore the
lack Of thoroughness In many young
men and women who present them
selves for clerical positions.
Preparation for civil service exami-
nations is one Of the sPecialties OF the
Drillery. Special courses are arranged
to prepare for the diff srent examina-
lions, and students from the Drillery
have passed well.
The DFillery also conducts CORE
spOndence course in all its branches.
The commercial and bookkeeping de-
partment has been placed under the
direction Of an experienced accountant
and auditor. Actual business transac-
tons are used IN the classes. and the
pupils keep sets Of books similar 70
those used by a large business hoJsS.
All the principles Of bookkeeping aac
auditing are taken up and followed out
I'm systematic order, 50 that the str
dent Is qualified 70 open a set Of books
or sep in and take up the work OF
another bOOkkeeper- Students may con
tinue their courses through the highest
forms OF accounting.
The system Of shorthand is the Ben
Pittman. referred 70 by the COmmis-
sioner OF Education in his report as the
American system" The method Of In
struction which has been the secret Of
i success attained by the school has been
| highly commended by the official re-
! pOrters OF the House Of Representa-
tives probably the most expert short

This College Offers Excep-
tional Preparatory Course
for Girls.

Besides a finishing course" for high
school graduates AMI others who wish
10 further their education away from
home and receive the benefits Of a fin

fers exceptionally complete academic
and college preparatory courses for
young women.
The purpose OF this school IS to pre-
pare young women for their places IN
the horne and in society Effort is made
10 create an atmosphere so stimulaJ-
ing that there will be cheerful ready,
and uaselfsh obedience to the rules Of
good conduct and good breeding; TO
develop and enlarge their minds and
hearts, and 70 instiH the sense Of per-
sonsI responsibility So earnestly that
tse students will realize that the good
name and work OF the seminary are in
their keeping. and that as true Amer
lean girls. they are co-workers with
the faculty.
The buildings are provided with the
best modern appliances for heating,
lighting. and sanitation. Every room

furnished. The library has collection
OF carefully chosen works Of poetry
and fiction, and is also provided with
the leading weekly and monthly maya
zines enabling the students TO famil-
iarize themselves with the best current
literature. Nothing is considered un-
important In the surroundings of the
students which will cintribute to their
happiness or culture.
The work Is arranged for four differ
ent classes OF students. First. those
desiring to complete academic and col
legiate work: second, those desiring
10 prepare for college; third. those de-
string to supplement former study by
specializing in a finishing school, and
fourth, those desiring 10 take a special
or postgraduate course.
The school makes a feature OF famiI-
iarizing its students with the Ieadinl
political questions of the day. Frequen
talks are given on political issues anC
current events. Such talks are mad,
impressive by frequent visits to the Cap
itol when important bills are under dis
cussion, and when prominent orators
are scheduled 70 speak.

they wish TO do. and when l see pupils
wasting good years taking POSTCARD
Uate courses, l am tempted TO think
that it is high time that the parent did
his and her work.
How many boys and girls OF the high
school age do know definitely just what
they want to do after leaving school?
VERY few. I have in mind a boy who
entered one OF my classes three years
ago. The lad. who was a mischievous
scamp Of fifteen. had selected that par
ticular school because some Of his bud
dies" as he called them, were going
there. The course. one chosen appar-
emily at random, did not interest him.
and his progress was far from rapid
Finally the father was sent for, and the
situation was explained.
"Oh. well" was the reply THE boy
is young and has to have his fun
never could study at that age, either.
II doesn't make any difference II he
doesn't study now. He'll find himself
in a few years"
1 tried to argue the matter. presenting
the boys case as automatically as pos
sible. but 1t was useless. Before the end
OF the year. 'eTom." who was really a
bright boy, had left school. Since that
time his career. which I have followed
with interest has been somewhat check
cred. The other day 1 learned that he
is working IN a mental position in a
stable Thus he has found himself"
Oh, the pity Of Il!
on the other hand, take an entirely
different case. that Ct a young girl
whose parents told her when she en-
tered high school that she must take a
course which would prepare her for
college. Her people selected a suitable
college, sent for a catalogue, and noted
the entrance requirements. Protesting
vigorously that she would rather wash
dishes all her life than go 70 college,
the girl. then fourteen. was compelled
20 take the course that was required
for college entrance After a years
hard work the protests against college
gradually ceased; indeed. the girl be-
gan TO take a certain pride IN the fact
that she was going to college. The
habit of studying. forced upon her at
first, gradually became a hXei one, and
today that same girl. having completed
her college course. is head OF the mathe-
matlcs department in a large high
school These are by no means extreme
cases. They are but two o. similar
cases that have come directly under
my notice i Is almost needless for
me TO add that a little parental advice
given in a firm manner al the right
time has always borne good fruit

Which High School Course for Your Girl o. Boy!
Hints the Practical Guidance of Parents Directing the Education
of Their Children the Most Important Stage.

But" some one may object. you
are advocating q college career rath-
er than the selection Of a suitable
high school course
No. Most emphatically, no.
1t is only that feel and 7 am sure
many Of our high school teachers will
agree with me, that If it is at all pos
sible the pupil should know in a fair
ly definite way just why he is in
school and what is expected OF him.
At the same time I should like TO
add Just a word about colleges Many
Of our pupils leave US without even
a thought OF college, enter into dit-
ferent lines of work and become sue
cessful However. I have seen only
too often that girls ard boys who en-
ter high schools with no thouBht OF
college. and take the first course sug-
Rested to them decide after two or
three Wars of high school work that
they viii go 10 college. Then college
catalogues are consulted and the pupil
frequently finds 10 his dismay, that
he has taken the wrong subjects, and
that college for him means much prt-
vate tutoring at great expense. Dur
ing the past year, no less tnaB nine
such cases have come directly undeT
my notice. II makes one think that
II IS about time that parents were
helping their children in the selection
OF school courses. And IL IS not only
the great waste In money which
should be considered, but the great
waste in time as well. Think OF haV-
ing q boy enter college at twenty or
twenty when, had he been start
ed properly. he might just as well be
graduating If then there is even a
remote possibility Of your child en-
tering college, see to II that he takes
the necessary subjects the first year
he is in high school. II you do not
understand the entrance requirements
the high school principals and teach
ers are always able and willing 70 aid
YOU or, in case there is no prospect
of your child going TO college, consid-
er carefully the advantages Of the diff
ferent high schools. and their differ
ent courses, and then select that
school and that course which viii
eventually mean the most TO your
child.
It is not my purpose 10 explain in
detail the different courses offered.
nor to suggest TO any parent that a
particular course be followed. Each
parent knows far better than any
teacher the individual needs Of his
child II parents would make In
quiries about these courses and then
consider them carefully they would
then he IN position 10 advise their
children. I cannot urge this too
strongly upon parents. for feel sure
that IL 81 were done our nigh schools
could do far more efficient work and
the pupils would receive far more
benefit than they do at present.
