Y0UNT UNIFORMITY BILL
Is HIT BY EDUCATORS
Strong Resolution Against State
Uniformity of School Books.

Cedar Point, o., - Educators
of Ohio to the number of 1000 attend
ed the annual meeting of the Ohio
State Teachers Association here. The
session was marked by two important
incidents-the teachers refused to lis
ten to an address on equal suffrage and
they took unanimous action against
state uniformity of school books.
During the last session of the legis-
lature the Yount uniformity bill was
passed by the senate and was lost in
the house. The educators of Ohio do
not want uniformity considered again
and they voice their protest in the fol-
lowing strong resolution:
I'VE believe that the educational
value of school process IS and practices
should be paramount to every other
consideration. We are therefore op-
posed to all efforts which would aim
to establish a system of State Uni
formity in the selection of textbooks,
because we believe that such a sys-
tenn would be hindrance to the pres
ent progress of our schools

Her Supreme Moment

The manager, who was also the
leading man, faced the newest mem
ber of his company with a flinty coun-
tenance.
Il can't do it," the newest member
walled. Il can't can't. Play that
part here, of all places-a part | dent

necessary? Won't you reconsider"
The manager sighed inwardly. But
before him were two ills-the anger
of his star, the grief of his newest
member; and the grief of the newest
member was a tiny evil compared
with the anger of his star.
I'm sorry, Miss awfully

He was silent He was the man
ager, but the star was the star, and
to her he was in absolute subjection.

life, and Stunned and feared are now the
abodes of numbers of people who find, since
the introduction of the eucalyptus trees, but
little traces of the dreaded malaria that for
ages once caused those regions to be so
stunned and deserted
In the low malarial regions around the Cape
of Good Hope and in some similar unhealthful
regions around Algiers and elsewhere, the
same benfcent results have followed the intro.
duction of the eucalyptus trees.
AS yet no variety has been discovered that
is able to withstand even moderate frost, but
the fact that millions of these trees can be
raised easily and quickly in California and
Florida and perhaps in the warm places on the
Gulf of Mexico, and that It's timber can be so
widely utilized, is matter for coHgratulation
to all who interested in the conservation of
our forests and also in the introduction of new
varieties of trees that will add to the timber
wealth of the country
- general, eucalyptus may be successfully
planted In the sections of the United States
suitable for the culture of citrus fruits. They
grown in nearly all the agricultural sec
tons of California, along the coast of southern
Oregon, and to limited extent In Arizona
New Mexico and western Texas. Several spe.
cies have also been planted in Florida and
along the Gulf coast. Here, however.
sional frosts have killed or severely damaged
been discouraged.
The blue gum Eucalyptus globulus) has a
phenomenally rapid rate of growth Seedlings
stands will average height growth of so feet
in years and 100 feet In 10 years. Under
very favorable conditions individual trees have
reached height of 1876 feet and diameter of
Sc inches in years. In sprout stands growth
is even more rapid trees frequently reach 3
inches in diameter and 35 feet In height in 8
months, while in years diameter of inches
and height of 70 feet are often attained. In
California, under favorable conditions trees
have attained height of IT'S feet and d.
ameter of feet in 20 years. Although some
times irregular in form, the tree tends to de-
velop straight gradually tapering, unforked

ralia, its original home.
1t was surprise, as well as a revelation, to
find on our recent visit to Australia that IN
that far-away land, under the Southern Cross,
were growing trees that lowered in the air 100
feet higher than the great Sequoia, the famous
red wood of our American west: and yet such
ic the fact as some specimens of the Eucalyp-
FMS amygdalina reach to the great height OF
aSO feet Specimens abound that are from lZo
IN 2OO feet in circumference. They are prac-
ncally Of no use for commercial purposes, as
the expense of cutting down such enormous
trees and then getting their logs split up into
nieces that can be handled is so great that
these monsters are passed by the thrifty lum-
harmen for the smaller ones that are more
easily handled
The Eucalyptus amygdana is the tallest' II

intense heat of the tropical sun of those lands
where they most flourish
The Eucalyptus globulus, generally called
the blue gum, from its bluish-green feaves, is
the variety most successfully grown in Califor-
nit. 1t has also been introduced and fourishes
in India Natal. Egypt Algeria, and in various
parts of southern Europe and in some other
warm countries. 1t cannot stand the frost and
so must be classed among tropical trees. Per
haps only In the state of Florida and Calfor-
MIA can we expect to see 1t in perfection in
this country: yet although its introduction into
California has been of but recent date, already
its value to that state has been very consider
able.
Some of the species of eucalyptus are much
more valuable than others. There is also
great diversity both in their appearance and
worth One of the most valuable is the Euca-
lyptus marginata, popularity called the Jarrah

It resists the attack of the ship worms and

into the construction of ships and is utilized
In other marine uses.
Some varieties of the eucalyptus yield

while from others species of manna-a hard

abounds the eucalyptus has obtained con-

he divided as to the way in which its benef-

result of the volatile oils which these trees
give off through their leaves, acting a neu.

maintain that its benefcent results are caused

DOG is FAITHFUL
TO SICK MASTER

New York, Nov. 25.-For the last
three months q shaggy black dog has
been pacing up and down in front
of the Kings county hospital. Efforts
of attendants to drive him away We're
vain.
About August ! an old man, sick
and destitute, Pete Donohue, went in
TO the hospital with dog which he
called Bruin The doctors ordered
him into the dispensary and the dog
refused to leave him. Bruin was put
out six times and finally resigned him
self to stay outside.
The frst day ponohus was up he
went to the window and there on the
walk outside he saw Bruin gazing up
at him. The dog almost went crazy
with JOY and despite his fifteen years
he leaped up and down as in his pup
by days. Since that time the good old
dog has patrolled regularly beneath
his masters window. Donohue is in
the consumptiye ward. The dog never
will make friends with any one, al
though the physicians touched by his
faithfulness, have taken to feeding
him.
Donohue says that he and Bruin
have wandered over good part OF
the country together. Neither o.
them had any home nor any other
friends.
