THE GERMAN COMPULSORY SCHOOL LAW

Germany has in force a compulsory
law that, / think, is good model, be-
cause does all the people justice, en-
riches the school district, and was never
known TO have been broken. As mat
ter of fact, no school law in Germany is
ever known to be broken, for if the
children are shown how easy it is to
break law, how can they be expected
to become .law-abiding citizens when
they grow up? The German compul-
sorry education law is very simple, and
can be understood by the most ignorant.
The law reads that child between the
ages of six and fourteen must attend
school during all the time that school is
in session Ia little over ten months)
For every day that he is absent from
school without a good, legitimate ex-
cuse (there are no more than five leglt-
innate excuses), the parent is forced to
pay sum of money equal in value to
fifty cents. The list of unexcused chill
dren is handed by the headmaster to
the local truant officer, who goes around
once every three months and collects
the fines. The people, knowing they
have to pay or go to jail, submit with
out a murmer.
1t is true, the law is an old one, and
so vigorously has it been enforced from
the start that the truant officer has now
very little to do. The attendance is al
most perfect, and, naturally, the work
is almost perfect too. A whole lot of
red tape and lawsuit is considered too
much trouble and expense. Immediate
action is far simpler and better, and
produces fewer sore heads. W A.

THE Truth about Fruit Growing IN

pamphlet just issued by the State Hor-
ticultural Society. This Bulletin is a
''boost'' for Wisconsin from title page

for the cherry crop at Sturgeon Bay

are shown to be worth as much as 1921
per acre for series of years. The OPP
portunities in Wisconsin for fruit rails
ing are shown to be as good as in any

stated that 'land can be bought in Wis

to be sent to such an institution Why,
the stamp of babyhood is yet upon their
countenances and the thing that they
seem to be in greatest need of, is the
cares and care of a kind-hearted moth
er, who would love them enough to
praise them when they did right, but
correct and reprimand them when they
did wrong
Kenneth Ladder is nine year old
boy with very pleasing disposition.
His expression is honesty, his actions
humble, his intellect very good. Now
listen to his home conditions. His faith
err is in the penitentiary at Waupun,
his mother is not able to provide for
him. Previous to coming to the Indus
trial school he was put under the care
of his grandmother, who treated him so
badly that he ran away, so she had him
sent to the school for incorrigibility. /
might mention many different conditions
of home life which sent these small boys
to the Industrial School, but to sum
them all up into one statement ! would
say the boys are all like Topsy they
have not been raised they just
| .growed. =
Now, in thought, go with me to Fam
lily number nine, which is composed of
boys from the age of fifteen to,twenty-
one Many of those boys have pretty
good intellectual education, yet they
are very deficient in moral and religious
knowledge. The intellectual faculties
have been developed while the moral
propensities of the brain have not been
developed properly because the parents
and teachers have not done their duty
in teaching that most precious accomp-
lishment, morality.
Geo. Zehnner, an eighth grade stu
dent, told that it was never impressed
by anyone that it was wrong to get
money by lottery, until | spoke to him
about it. This young man left the
School while / was there and is now
working on farm He has been .con-
verified and has joined church.
Some of the boys have been led astray
by reading unwholesome reading ma
terial. So great many may be classi.
fed under the second cause-defective
moral and religious education.
The third cause namely: Influence
of evil surroundings on an unemployed
or idle boy, would apply to many boys
from every cottage The city of Mil
waukee sends so many to the school
that they are thinking of building a
school in Milwaukee for them. A very
small per cent of the boys come from
farms
If you ask some OF the boys why they
were sent to the school many will say
that it was because they got into a
gang and were coaxed to do the thing
that was wrong.
The industrial school is doing a great
deal to make useful, law abiding citi-
zens, and to make life better and hap
pier for the boys who are sent there.

WISCONSIN INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL

Paper by G. c. Feist read at the Rusk County
Teachers Association
In the southwestern outskirts of
Waukesha is situated the Wisconsin In
dustrial School for Boys which consists
of sixteen large stone structures be-
sides numerous wooden buildings and a
farm of four hundred and four acres of
choice land
Around and within the buildings of
that institution three hundred and sixty
boys on the average, ranging from the
age of nine to tWenty-one, are being
taught to lead moral and Industrious
lives.
Boys of different nationalities, with
unlike religious beliefs, and from all
classes of society are put there on equal
terms with conditions favorable for
healthful growth and development.
Ii you should ask me what | consid-
cred the greatest causes which led to
the commitment of those boys to re-
form school, would say these three:
First, lack of home or parental train
ing; second, defective religious and
moral training; third, influence of evil
surroundings on an unemployed or idle
boy.
Now, at present there are nine Cot
tages' or Family" buildings. Each
Cottage has from thirty-six to fifty-four
boys who are under the charge of an
Officer and Matron.
Cottage number ten is composed of
boys ranging from the age of nine to
twelve. These boys may practically all
be classified under the first cause lack
of home or parental training. Anyone
going into that cottage and looking at
those small lads is Immediately i'm
pressed with the thought that with
proper home training those boys would
never have committed acts bad enough

That prize fight at San Francisco last
week would not have been an uninter-
esting spectacle in the arena of ancient
Rome thousand years ago. The As
ISOLATED Press reportof the thirty-eighth
round-six minutes before the end
reads:
Nelson was a pitiful sight as he stag
gered to the center of the ring. VOL
CAST appeared to be in no hurry to COM
plete his work. Robinson at this stage
tried to throw up the sponge, but the
other Nelson seconds took the sponge
from him and threw it in the bucket.
Nelson to all intents and purposes, was
a beaten man and it required the use of
all his senses to stave off or prolong in
evitable defeat. Both men were COW
cred from head to foot from the Dane
blood and the arena soon became a
shambles. Wolgast peppered away at
the disintegrating champion, the crowd
yelling itself hoarse for the Milwauk-
eean to finish his man and the agony.
These cries were mingled with express
ions of pity for Nelson Betting to |
in favor of Wolgast.

never trouble their children with lit

very valuable, every available piece OF

10 to 40 acres for the growing of trees.

The forester must display good intell-

areas yield annually net return of six
to ten dollars per acre. The expense
varies from sixty to ninety cents per
acre.
The duty Of this forester is to assist
in planting, selecting trees, marking
trees to be cut, etc.
After a cutting has been made the
forester comes around to check up and
give instruction in planting.
Two trees are planted for every one

trees as there were in the previous
crop.
Pine, spruce and beech are the COM

There is nothing on earth SO mysteri-
ously funny as a newspaper advertise
ment. The prime first, last, and all the
time, object of any advertisement, is TO
draw custom 1t is not, was not and
never will be designed for any other
human purpose So the merchant waits
till the busy season comes and his store
is so full of Custom that he can't get
his hat off, and then he rushes to the
newspapers and puts III his advertise
ment When the dull season gets along
and there is no trade and he wants to
sell goods so bad he can't pay his rent
he takes out his advertisement. That
is. some of them do but occasionally a
level headed merchant puts in bigger
one and scoops in all the business while
his neighbors are making mortgages to
pay the gas bill. There are times when
you couldn t stop people from buying
everything in the store if you planted
a cannon behind the door and that's the
time the advertisement is sent out on
its holy mission. 1t makes light work
for the advertisement, for chalk sign
on the sidewalk could do all that was
needed and have half holiday six days
in the week, but who wants to favor an
advertisement? They are built to do
hard work. and should be sent out in
dull days when customer has to be
knocked down with hard facts and
kicked insensible with bankrupt reduct-
ions and dragged in with irresistible
slaughter of prices before he will spend
cent Write this down where you'll
fall over it every day. The time to
draw business is when you want bust
ness, and not when you have more
business than you can attend to already.

aondoIas and windmlIls Going.


AS the gondolas of Venice have
been supplanted by the electric
launch, so the equally picturesque
windmills of Holland are falling in
the face of the march of modern in
vention. In Venice the few gondolas
that are seen on the waters of the
city are maintained merely to answer
a demand on the part of tourists who
think visit to that city is incomplete
without a ride in one of these anci-
ent crafts propelled by a gayly-clad
gondolier. They have long since been
abandoned by the natives, who make
use of modern launches.
And now the word comes from Hol-
land that gas engine pumping plants
are taking the place of the historic
windmills AS the latter are princi-
pally used for the purpose of pump
ing water out of drain bitches, which
must be done regularly In order to
keep the fields and meadows dry, their
uncertainty for this work is now rec
ognized, and gas motors are gradually
being introduced. Like the Venetians
the thrifty Dutchmen will probably
maintain windmills enough to offer
attractions for the artists and tour
lists who flock there from all parts of
the world in search of novel sights
Indeed, the statement has been made
that the natives of this section have
long been inclined to depart from
their old-time style Of apparel, but
they realize that 1t Is drawing card
for travellers, and for this reason
they cling tenaciously to the baggy
brceches and voluminous skirts which
the men and women of that country
haze affected for centuries.

THE COMMON SCHOOL AND THE FARM

| Paper read by w. B. Graham at the Rusr Coul,-
ty Teachers Association Saturday, Feb &c 1910
In many states the only educational
advantages provided in rural districts
are the common schools, and doubtless
this condition will remain so indefinite
ly. This the farming commun ty ap-
preciates, and it's interest is naturally
centered in the work and in the efficien-
cy of the common school, knowing that
generally speaking, all the education
the boys and girls will receive will be
derived therefrom Therefore it is the
right and the duty of the people to view
with critical eye the teachers en-
ployed by their school board
They are sending out call not only
for teachers who hold good certificates
not only for such as are fully prepared
to handle all the branches With normal
skill, but the call also extends to such
| teachers as are character builders,
whose habits command the respect and
tend to raise the morals Of the COM
munity. The time has passed when a
| teacher can spend one or two nights
out of every week in the dance-hall or
in any other amusement that saps the
vitality and energy that is so essential
in the school-room.
The rural communities are awakening
to the fact that the only real teacher is
the one who has not taken up the work
of teaching as stepping stone to some
thing else of more lucrative character
but the who has taken up teaching as a
profession, as life work, and that too
with the knowledge that it is second to
no profession on earth; one who feels
that she has as much right to take pride
in her profession as a lawyer, doctor or
statesman do in theirs.
The great problem handed down by
the farmers from time immemorial.
how are we to keep our boys on the
farm? can be partly if not wholly
solved by the common schools, if they
are being conducted by the Eight kind
of teachers, those who have the ability
to instruct the boys and girls along
such lines and in such way as to lead
them to appreciate farm life and all its
environments.
The first effort of the teacher in this
regard is to implant in the minds and
hearts Of pupils that labor all labor is
noble and holy; that farming is fast be-
coming a science; that as much brain
as Drawn is needed on the farm; to
teach them that it is just as respecta-
BILE to plant corn, or sow wheat, as it is
to handle goods over a counter; that it
is just as respectable to study and in
vestigate the different grades of cattle
to determine their milk and fattening
qualities as it is to study chemistry or
any other science.
If the child has been properly in
structed, on leaving the school-room he
will have that love for good and whole
some literature, that hungering and
thirstlng after knowledge, that will
cause the farming community to fill
their homes with the best Libraries at
tainable and with all that promulgates
culture and refinement.
These then should be some of the re-
suits of the work done in the common
schools and then and not till then will
they be great factor for good in the
land and accomplish that purpose for
which they were intended.
