Thursday Morning

Thursday morning the opening ex-
ercises were in charge of Supt. Fickel
of Centerburg.
"The Educative Value of the Study
of Language was the subject of Prof.
Barbour's talk. A child's mind, he
said, will grow by studying language,
by learning to express his thoughts
accurately. Those men who have
great intellectual power have always
been very careful to use the exact
word or phrase to express their
thoughts. AS examples of this, Prof.
Barbour told of how Lowell, Daniel
Webster and Bryant would go over
their writings again and again chang
ing and rechanging words, in order to
express their thoughts exactly
Mr.. Coughlin's subject was "Con'
crete Methods in Arithmetic" and he
expressed the belief that concrete
teaching is not carried far enough
along in the schools. The imagination
of the pupil should be cultivated, he
said, in order that he may see things
as they are stated to him. He should
be taught never to accept on author
ity that which will admit of a rationa
or sensible explanation. He should
work out, or prove, for himself state
ments he reads in his lesson and II
this way he cultivates the power O
thinking for himself, which Is so i'm
portant in mathematics.

Pueblo Indian Problem

Santa Fe, New Mexico. w. r. Pnr-
ter. chief Of administration in the In
dian bureau, who has been here for
several days, has received a telegram
transferring his activity to New Mex
leo as supervisor of schools for the
specific purpose of studying the history
md character of the Pueblo Indians,
hat the administration of Indian af-
fairs may devise a special policy as
regards their future, which is press
ing question, especially in view of the
admission of New Mexico to statehood.
The status of the Pueblo as citizen,
Il voter, Il taxpayer and owner of ex-
tensive reservations which can be al
lottcd or leased, is recognized by the
present Indian administration as a
serious question. There is only one
other class of Indians that has thus far
received special treatment from the
hands of The Indian office, the civilized
tribes Of Indian Territory.

NIGHT SHIP TIE
PRIZE TO KEHOE

Middleton, N. Y, Jan. 80. An
interesting fact in connection
with the awarding of the prizes
offered by Dr.. Thomas Darling
ton, health commissioner of New
York city, for the best essay on
How can clean and wholesome
milk be produced at least cost
for the New York market" is that
the winner of the second price is
a patient at the Middleton state
hospital and has been confined in
that institution for several years.
The prize was a 5000 full bred
Jersey cow and the winner is Ray
Sponenbergh, who was com
mitted to the institution from
Fulton, N. Y. Although he has
not been able to do any farming
for several years he prepared his
prize winning paper in the state
hospital, and dairy men all over
the country have thought that
the writer was an experienced
dairyman. It is not known just
what Mr.. Sponenbergh will do
with the COW he has won.

The Fort Gibbon Social and
Dramatic Club held its last ses.
sion for the season on Tuesday
evening last, and much of the
time was given to the passing of
bouquets and compliments among
its officers and members.
This they could we'll afford to
do as for the past five months
this club has been the real life Of
the garrison to the enlisted men,
and many of their pleasures have
been shared in by the officers and
their families and townspeople as
we'll. In fact the club has been
one of the most popular organi.
cations of it's kind ever conceived
in the army post of Alaska, hav.
ing on its membership rolls at
one time and another nearly
every man in the garrison.
Furthersome during its five
months existence there has not
been single hitch or disagree
ment in it's operations, due
largely to the excellent manage
ment of it's officers among whom
President Kinzer, Secretary
Broyhill, and Chairman of Social
Committee Tobin come in for a
large share of credit. Speeches
were called for and were forth
coming from these and the other
officers, including Mr.. Reid, to
whom a hearty vote of thanks
was rendered as organizer. After
the payment of all bills the bal
ance in the treasury was turned
over to the Peerless orchestra,
which had contributed so largely
to the success of the club feat
ures. The club properties were
turned over to Sgt. Tobin, as
custodian, for use in similar or
ganization next winter. Follow.
ing the business session the club
enjoyed it's usual smoker and

the prettiest kind of contest last
Tuesday.

the hosts that fought under the Rod

grew forgetful, and then the spirited
team broke away with the empty sleigh
and invaded the hostile precincts of
Campbell's homestead, where it halted
among the niggerheads. This was the
worst break during the whole cam
paign, a mere matter of fractured

with a bit of baling wire.
At the polls there were numerous
challenges, directed in most part at
men of uncertain qualifications of resi-

instance, however, LADY was challen-

learning that Il years was requisite
