should not be too remote from the ex-
periences or comprehension of the
pupil What he does not understand
or enjoy can have little or no culture
value for him.
2. The study of such technical
factors as style should have no place
in high school course The learn
ing of definitions may contribute
nothing to the improvement of the
pupils use of language.
8. To get the pupil to speak in
correct sentences in all his work
should be feature of every recitation.
4. All written work, whatever
the subject with which it is connect
ed, should be correct. The first es-
sential is that the thought should be
expressed in complete sentences that
are begun with capital letter and
closed with periods.
5. The most elementary factors in
good composition should be mastered
before any attempt is made to in
troduce the pupil to the more com
plicated features of punctuation,
paragraphing, etc.

CHANGES
PROFESSIONALLY
One Medical and Two Law Part
nerships Dissolved
While a Third Takes in New Member
With the Beginning of the
New Year.

January L, 1910 marked number
of changes, professionally, in Lam
caster, some of which came as a
general surprise to the public.
One of these is the dissolution OF
partnership of the firm of Doollttle
Bros physicians and surgeons, with
Offices over Benefits drug store.
DIR. S. W. Doollttle, the senior and
retiring member has been in prac-
tice here for about IL years and has
built up large and lucrative prac-
tice. During these years he has al
SO acquired numerous outside inter-
ests aside from his professional bus
mess and he intends taking a years
respite from active business during
which he will look after these side
affairs and also take a liberal
amount of recreation. A portion OF
the year he intends spending in New
Mexico and other portions OF the
south west and says he never again
will engage in the general practice
of medicine but may take up spec
ial line of work in the profession.
DR.. j. G.. Doolittle will continue
the practice, at the same location.
DIR. q. c. NARROW will this week
move his dental office from the
rooms he has occupied in the 8ax
ter block, in the rear of the law of
fees of Brown & Brennan, into
rooms adjoining DR.. Doolittle in the
Bennett block, and the two will use
the same reception room jointly.
The firm Of Lo wrv and Carthew,
Lawyers, was dissolved on January
1st and Mr.. Carthew becomes a
member of the firm of Brown q
Brennan, which will be known here
after as Brown, Brennan q Car
thew. The rooms vacated by DIR.
NARROW will be reno leled and ad-
ded to those now occupied by Brown
81 Brennan which will provide them
with very commodious quarters and
accommodate their large and grow
ing business.
e M. Lowry, the senior member,
of the firm of Lowry & Carthew,
which has just been dissolved, is
one of the best known lawyers In
this section and has perhaps the
largest practice of any individual
lawyer in the county. His entire
life has been spent as a resident OF
Lancaster, where his father was en-
gagged in the practice of law before
him. He will continue IN practice
alone, at least SO far as any plans to
the contrary are known at present,
and will retain the Offices he has so
long occupied.
Still another change has taken
place, that of the firm of Bushnell,
Watkins & Moses. After the death
of the Hon. A. r. Bushnell last
/ spring, the firm name was retained,
| pending settlement of matters per-
tanning to the estate of the deceased
member, but with the beginning OF
the present year a dissolution has
taken place, and both Me-. Watkins
and Mr.. Moses will Ego 1t alone" as
the saying is.
And taken altogether the above
is considerable of change for one
week, even in the beginning of
strenuous year.

LANCASTER FACES A
REGULAR COAL FAMINE
Not a Bushel of Coal Now in the
Local Yards.
Plenty of it on the Way but Congisted
Traffic on Railroad Delays Its
Arrival.

'Hellol Is this the coal Officer"
'sSure! What's the troubled"
'How's your stock Of hard coal?"
Haven't got bit"
what, none at all9"
mot pound"
"Any soft coal or coke?"
Not Bit"
when you going to have any?" >
Don't know. We've got several
carloads somewhere on the road be-
tween here and Milwaukee and some
of it may be here today or it may
not arrive for week or two, and IL
this perpetual showing keeps up to
blockade trains there's no telling
when we'll have any,"
Some such conversation as the
above takes place over the telephone
with the two local coal dealers every
day, and the situation is serious
one. Half the people in town who
use coal have only a small supply
on hand. Many are entirely out,
and have been out for several days,
with but little prospect of relief.
We have had more than four weeks
of steady cold weather, and nearly
the same length of time of sleigh
ing. The pile of coal in the bin
has seemed to literally melt away,
day by day, faster than it ever did
before. Trains have been block
AIDED on all railroads and some days
not pound of freight has arrived
in Lancaster.
The only relief seems to be the
supply of good dry wood which the
fine sleighing makes it possible to be
brought to town in liberal quantities
every day. Nearly everybody is
laying in a supply of wood for fear
that the coal may not arrive in time
to help them out.
And in the meantime the weather
man says ''Cheer up, the worst IL
vet to come, and winter has only
fairly started yet.

A BULLY HUNTING TRIP
Game Sports Were These Who
Braved Zero Weather
For Rabbit Hunt.

Fl. w. Brown and party of
friends went out TO the formers
bungalow on Pine Knob last Satur-
day morning for few days hunt
ing and recreation. The party con-
sisted of Mr.. Brown, Tom Haley, g.
O. Sykes, Nick Tiedemann, Fred
barnett, Joe Ivey and Gene Wood
house-all good hunters as the most
dyspeptic critic will admit. They
found the hunting" plentiful; the
country fairly abounded with it but
what they got was mainly an ap-
petite, and come to think about it
that was one of the principal things
they went for.
Nick Tiedemann came back Mon
dav afternoon and said that up to
the time he left the only game that
had been bagged was few rounds
of Whist and solo, but that Sykes
had discovered some fresh tracks
Sunday evening that he thought
would bear following up.
The comissary department was a
noble one, Judging from the list OF
articles seen by The Herald and 1t
is doubtful if even such an appetite
as Tom Haley's could make very
perceptible inroads upon it In two
or three days.
Any way there is no doubt that
the occasion made very pleasant
outing and the man who can't enjoy
that sort Of thing must have some
thing the matter with his liver.
The really thrilling incident that
has been flashed this way by the
grape vine wireless is that concern
ing Tom Haley. Tom is no feather
weight. In fact when he gets his
hunting clothes on he looks about
the size of Jim Jeffries. Sunday he
was doing some fancy stunts on the
ice at the little creek near the cot,
tOge and the ice wouldn't stand fol-
it. There were no life preservers
handy but the combined efforts OF
the crowd got Tom out of the water
and wrupg him out. 1t is reported
that he stayed pretty close to the
fire place the balance of the trip.

Wedding Reception.

The home of Mrs. Y. Yoose, of
Sinner Creek was brilliantly lighted
New Years night, Jan. 1st, 1910,
the occasion being reception given
in honor of her son Andrew and
bride, who had returned from their
wedding trip Thursday evening.
About sixty invited guests were
present. After congratulations the
evening was pleasantly spent by visit
ing, singing, jokes and stories. Rev.
Laube spoke short time in German
which we are sorry we did not under
stand; he also spoke few words of
kindly advice III English to the young
married couple which we older mar
ried couple stored away in memory s
corner. 1t Was good advice for any
one. At eleven o'clock delicious
refreshments were served, consisting
of sandwiches, pickles, cakes, fruit
and coffee, after which Andrew treat
ed his gentlemen friends and neigh
bors who had come to welcome him
and his pretty bride home. The
bride Miss Cora Letcher, a cousin OF
Mrs. Y. Fitch, although almost a
stranger here. we know by her bright
friendly appearance that Andrew has
been wise in his choice for a life
partner. It was reported that he had
gone to Texas to take mp a claim, but
he did not do that; he went straight
to Nebraska, took up mis- claim and
brought it home with him where they
will settle down to farming. We
join in wishing them long life of
health, wealth and prosperity.

THE TEACHING So
n OF ENGLISH
County Supt. Brockert Makes Some Sug
gestions That are Endorsed
by Teachers.

In connection with the Teachers
Institute held in Montfort December
1O.and II a conference of high school
principals and assistants was held to
discuss the teaching of English. Supt.
Brockert, recognizing the need of i'm
proving the spoken and written
language of pupils, called this con-
ference in the hope of thus stimulat-
ing a more united and persistent effort
to improve the work in English. The
conference was attended by high
school principals of Grant and Iowa
counties, and, after discussing the
subject, the following resolutions
we're unanimously adpoted:
RESOLUTIONS.
Recognizing that the language used
by the child is the counterpart OF
his thinking; that slovenly spoken or
written language in any subject in-
dictates slovenly thinking in that SUBJ
iect; and that any inaccuracy in ex'
preston is usually an index of cor
responding defect in thinking; we.
the high school teachers of Grant and
Iowa counties in conference assembled
this 18th day of December, 1909,
recommend that both spoken and
written English be considered more
important part of every subject taught
and that no pupil be given a passing
mark in any subject unless he can use
and does use correctly the common
terms employed in that subject, and
has formed the habit of using
language with fair degree of ac-
curacy and conciseness in the expires
sion Of thought in that subject.
We realize that all teachers must
be held responsible for the English OF
their students and we here resolve
that the spoken and written language
of every pupil shall be given greater
attention-noT only in class. but in
diyiduals attention as well-from the
time he enters the high school until
be leaves it.
We believe that the habit of speak
ing and writing in simple, correct
sentences should be formed in the
early years of the child's life, and
urge that every possible effort be made
to get teachers of primar intermedi-
ate and grammar grades to appreciate
the Importance of this phase OF the
child's education and realize their
responsibility in its development.
Some of the points of general agree
ment expressed in conference were
/. That the masterpieces of
literature studies in the high school

STORM
WAS A VERY BAD ONE
Heavy Snow Storm Prevailed
Nearly all Day
North and South Roads Badly Drifted
Trains Blockaded and Mail Car
riers Shut Out

Yesterdays snow storm was the
worst one of the entire winter.
Snow began falling early in the
morning and kept it up necessarily
the whole day through. And 1t
came down fast and fierce too, ac-
companied by a constant wind
which swept the snow in drifts upon
the railroads and highways in a
manner to thoroughly impede travel
of all kinds. The morning train on
the Northwestern started out east
bound from here about on time and
spent the day in reaching Fen
nimore. Late last evening 1t was
still there. intending to stay
the night and turn around to come
back today. The westbound train,
due in here at noon, reached Mont
fort and turned around there, not
CHANGING the drifts between that
place aud Lancaster. In conse-
quence we had no mail yesterday
except that which came from Potosi
and Bloomington by stage.
The rural mail carriers were up
against a hard game: All Of them
covered part of their routes but
none were able to make the entire
round because OF the badly drifted
roads. Tine snow is considerably
more than a foot deep, even after
the shrinkage from the thaw on
New Years day.
Last night was a wild and biz
zardy one.
This is the ''old fashioned" winter
all right, all right.
