the teaching OF the common branches
it has been Professor Copeland's
practice. as he visited the different
school rooms, to conduct classes in
the various grades and subjects, thus
putting himself into the closest and
most cordial relations with the pupils
and making school visitation some
thing more than mere listening and
looking on. He has also given j
portion OF each day to regular class
work in the high school and it is
perhaps in this line OF work that he
has achieved his greatest success.
His students in the Greeley and
Eaton high schools, who have had
his pers. nal instruction. do not need
to be told of his happy manner OF
conducting classes and maintaining
order, or OF his faculty for so direct
ing their thought as to lead them to
master for themselves the difficult
things.
Professor Copeland's power as a
classroom instructor was so well
known to the Greeley school board
that for several years an assistant
instructor was employed to superin-
tend the grade work under his di-
rectiOn, i'm order that a greater part
of his time might be given to the
high school classes. Under his ad-
ministration in Greeley the high
school enrolment became the larg-
est, in proportion to total enroll
ment, OF any high school in Colorado
and one of the largest in the United
States. Il was also under his ad
ministratiun and through his efforts
that the Greeley high school obtain
ed a more than state wide recogni-
tion by being placed upon the ac-
credited list of the Northern Asso-
citation of Colleges and Preparatory
Schools, an organization covering
large number of states.
One of Professor Copeland's dis
tinctive characteristics as a school
man is his insistenCe upon good or
der in his schools and his loyal
support of his teachers in the main
tenance xpf good order. No one thing
has done more to secure for him the
cordial friendship of his associate
teachers than this strong backing in
the matter of school discipline. As
a citizen Professor Copeland has al
ways been absolutely independent
and fearless in defense of his convic-
tions and he has always taken high
ground on all questions of social
purity and civic righteousness.
His eminent fitness for the super
intendency of the Weld county
schools, as TO physical strength, ma
tive energy, teaching power and pro
fessional standing, is not questioned
by the adherents of any political
party who have adequate knowledge
of his work.

Wizard Edison
 to Visit Arizona

Thomas A Edison the worlds great. est inventor, will next spring visit the only cobalt mine in the United States, which is located about eight miles south of Jerome, in the Black Hills, at the head of Grapevine creek. Cobslt is the metal that is absolutely neces- sary in the manufacture of Mir Edison's new electric storage battery, therefore he is vitslly interested in the discovery.
 The owners of the mine, $ Morrison and his son, R E Morrison, are now in Prescott. Their property consists of four claims, known as the Red Bluff group. Up to year ago they were developing the claims for copper, gold and silver. Some excellent copper ore has been uncovered, but they have lost interest in the red metal now.
