Teachers are often employed TO act

eliminated If possible by the board OF
education. A teacher with q certifi-

the proposed organization must be built upon an up

the theses of Prof Ernst IIaecke be made the tentative

Brother Maple says:
1--WE second the motion of The Blue Grass Blade for

The Blade appreciates the interest thus manifested and
agrees with the suggestion in all that it implies, but as the
strength power and influence of the proposed organization
can be found only in the number of individual units

THE BEGINNING OF THE
BIGGEST ARMY IN WORLD

WUCHANG.--Th biggest army of
the world has now its beginning In
this fast-awakening empire OF China.
IL already numbers 100000 trained
soldiers. Two years from now II will
have 100000, and within twenty-five
years, II IL goes ahead as did that
of Japan. II will have 100000 on n
peace footing and lO.O00.0O0 in times
of war
Such an army is not a dream OF the
opium pipe. II is a live possibility.
and 1t seems less improbable than
did the present army of Japan twenty
five years ago. The Japanese army
began It's creation in 1872. On a peace
footing it now numbers 100000, and
its war strength is close to mil
lion. Today, one Japanese In every
eighty is serving as a soldier, and at
a pinch. one in every forty can be
thrown into the field. China is al
ready in advance of the Japan of a
quarter of century ago. Her sol
diers are now being trained by the
best of foreign military talent. They
are armed with modern weapons, and
their organization is on the lines
which have brought up the army of
Japan.
The military system of Japan came
from Germany. That of China is the
same. with Japanese improvements.
Let us contrast the China of the fu-
ture with the Germany of the pres.
| ent. The Germans keep 1 per cent
of their whole 60,OOO,O0O under arms,
and in times of war they could put 5
| per cent of them into the field. Their
peace army is 100000 and their war
| strength more than 100000. In the
same ratio, China, with its 100000
900. will keep 100000 soldiers in
time of peace and Will be able to mus
ter 20,0OO.000 In times of war. These
are not visions. The yellow giant is
already In the gymnasium. He is
swinging dumbbells and Indian clubs
under the besr OF modern physical di-
rectors. He Is out on the drill ground,
practicing the goose step and learning

In view of the approach OF cold
weather and the severe loss to ap-
pie growers of the eastern slope two
years ago, Prof. II. r. Bennett of the
agricultural college has sent out ad-
vice to fruit growers. He says that
by careful study of the weather con-
ditions, such loss as was suffered two
years ago could be prevented. In
nearly every instance heavy snow is
followed by drop In the temperature,
and the apples are frozen to the trees.
Especially is this the case with the
Ben Davis and Gano. two winter va
rieties. At this season many of these
apples are not ripe enough to pick.
Should heavy snowstorm come, Prof.
Bennett advises the growers TO shake
the apples off the trees. allow them
TO fall into the snow and remain
there. He says the snow would act
as a cold storage for them and they
could be left In 1t with safety.
