Mrs. Hageman will return at once with the body and the funeral announcement will be made later. The death of MT. Franklin will come as d surprise to a great many of his friends here, who did not know of his departure for New Orleans or even of his serious illness. though he had been declining in health for long time. He was native of Missouri. 65 years old, and was one of the early settlers in this valley. For many years he was one of the few large tillers of the soil. In company with his brother. Fleming Franklin, now resident of California. in the days when hay, barley and alfalfa were about the only crops the valley pro- duced extensively and when prosperi ty depended on the fortunes of fitful supplies of irrigation water and the activity of nearby mining camps for a market.

Less than two years ago there were no

Three of the ungraded schools are "hlte

An example which could be duplicated
many times in effect. If not I'm exact fact,
and which illustrates the increase In the
sum total OF happiness since these schools
were established is that of little colored
boy who had fallen behind In his studies
through i'll health. He became unable 10
learn from books and was sent TO an
atypical school in South Washington.
Having a strong color sense. he found
interest and usefulness in baSketry work.
He made a basket SO well as to attract
the attention of one OF the directors who
was visiting the school. The child show
ed plainly his delight in her admiration.
At the close Of the school year he took
the basket to his home, as the children
are allowed to do. and the incident was
forgotten. In the fall, when again visit
ing the school. the admirer of the basket
was presented with it by the child, who
had kept 1t in excellent condition through
the summer vacation.
The records of these schools for the
year 1869 show that several children
were helped sufficiently to be returned
to the graded schools, seven were made
wards Of the court. one was placed in an
training.
Nor is this all that stands to their
credit, for parents have learned that
these help-schools are beneficent. that
backward child is frequently restored to
happiness and larger usefulness through
the kindly Investigations conducted in
them. They are learning, too, that at the
present time some defects cannot be
cured, or even lesSened, for example
color blindness. And they realize that
some line of work must be followed
where such defect will not be a bar. The
community is coming to see by practical
demonstrations that there are no incor-
rigible children; that only occasionally is
a child beyond help. and that 1t is better
that a defective child be trained in some
useful handicraft than to be an entire
dependent through life.
