A Corrective of EVIL that In Itself
Possesses Evil.
1T strikes me that It is better to nave
a boy whipped than to let him go straight
to the devil" said United States Commits
sioner of Education Brown, quoted by the
Chicago Inter Ocean, In discussing the
question OF corporal punishment as a dis
ciplinary measure In schools. He added,
however, that the doubt OF the accom-
p~llshment OF the desired End in checking
a downward career by this means in any
particular case and the many evils ac-
companying this form of punishment
seemed TO be causing It's gradual elimina-
ton.
fact that the Baltimore schoo authori-
ties had under consideration the question
of reViving this corrective means in the
schools Of that city Mr.. Brown expressed
the belief that It is preferable to whip
a boy IL It will turn his course from evil.
Continuing, he said: 81
There are cases undoubtedly where q
loving sort Of whipping has shunted a boy
off the downward track, but It Is pretty
hard to tell in any given case whether II
will have that effect or not, and there are
punishment that 1t seems to be slowly
dying out in this country"
The cruelties which accompanied the
whipping OF children in the schools In the
past were disappearing, he said, and re-
sort to that means of punishment was
gradually being diminished.

iS~eventy-five per cent of the cases of
illness in Omaha reported as typhoid fever
are not that allment at all, but are sim
ply intestinal disorder. accompanied by
fever OF much less severity, according to
DR.. Langfeldt, the city bacteriologtst.
OF sev~enty-five cases Of illness reported
as typhoid fever the physician found only
eighteen showing traces of typhoid bacilli.
The remaining cases showed fever to ac-
company the illness, but there was no
trace whatever Of typhoid germs.
y The report of the city bacteriologist Is
made following actual blood tests OF pa
tients supposedly suffering from typhoid
fever.
No blame. however, is attached by the
health department to physicians regarding
reports. IN the early stages symptoms
are the same and real typhoid cases do
not assume a dangerous aspect until the
fourth or fifth day.
Most OF the cases where there is a
marked fever are believed to be a sort OF
intestinal, grip. not particularly dangerous,
but still needing careful attention.
Although it is advisable to boil city
drinking water in order to avoid Intestinal
trouble and possible infection from typhoid
germs, expert tests show the water to be

Success OF the Plan InRugurated by
YanktOn College.
The regular announcement and invitation
has Just been issued to the Eighth Annual
State High School Contest in Defamation
under the auspices Of Yankton college, TO
be held at Yankton. May 10, 1910. This au-
nouncement and Invitation, as usual, goes
to every high school in the state.
The state contests In as
originated by the faculty of Yankton coll
lege seven years ago, has proved a means
OF helpful stimulation to this important
branch OF school work. A large number OF
the best high schools have participated
In these contests from year to year; and
principals, teachers and all concerned have
expressed their approval Of them. Last
years meeting was the largest and best
ever held in the history OF the contest,
tw~enty-three contestants being present.
and large numbers of visitors. representing
high schools in all parts of the state.
The usual manner Of selecting the rep
resentative of the high school Is to hold a
local defamation contest. This always
proves interesting n stimulating to
townspeople.
Last year a new plan was tried, of hav-
ing two different Glasses of declamations.
OhS was hhoWA 90 Inv be1bIul Glass;
in which there was no limitation as to
subject, and the other was known as the
'oratorfcal Glass; In which it was recon-
mended that the selections be taken from
the great masterpieces of oratory. This
latter iii OF defamation naturally APP
peals more to the young men. The new
plan gave such good satisfaction last
year that It will be permanently continued.
Each Of these two classes will be judged
separately, and solid gold and silver med
ais will be presented to those winning first
and second place in each class. Also the
high school winning first in each class
will be presented with a handsome state
championship banner.
The utmost pains will be taken to secure
competent judges, who will be acceptable
to all schools represented. Every effort
will be made to make the occasion a pleas
ant n profitable one for contestants
and their friends. and all may be as
sured of a hearty welcome.
The committee having charge of the
contest this year consists of Prof. G. H.
Durand and Prof. Alice r. Kingsbury.
Prof. Lyon, chairman of the committee,
is the head of the Department of Public
Speaking in Yankton college, and his work
is already held in very high regard here.
