CASE SYSTEM or TEACHING
Almost ur'yer-sI In study Of Law
Now Largely Used In Eco
Monies Courses.

Radical changes in the teaching Of
economics, consisting of the introduce
ton Of the case system, have been
made by the department OF political
economy at the University Of Chicago.
says the News Letter of that institu-
ton.
The case system was FIRST employ
ed In the teaching of law and is now
almost universally used in that sub
ject. The object In introducing this
method into the teaching of economics
Il to make the student think for him
self and solve problems In economics
as he would In mathematics.
The department at Chicago has pre-
pared q syllabus or outline which con-
sists Of about LIDO problems. and is
now engaged in printing a bi-weekly
bulletin made up exclusively OF orig.
inal cases or material descriptive OF
our Industrial organization.
At the nnal examination In the
course students are told to bring note
books. text books, outlines and any
thing they wish and are allowed to use
them freely. The examination consists
entirely OF problems.
The experience OF the department
proves the present method most sue
cessful. resulting In more individual
work on the part OF the students and
giving them better understanding OF
the subject.

FOR NEW ERA IN HOME LIFE
Kings College for Women IN London
Will Give Girls Training for
Domestic Science.

A new era in home life is inaugu-
rated by the formation of national
scheme for the endowment of home
science in connection with Kings
College for Women university Of
London). Altogether, one-half mil
lion dollars is required, and Of that
one-quarter million dollars has al
ready been subscribed privately.
"By insuring that in future every
girls education shall include some
knowledge of the science which sf-
fects her home problems and some
practice Of the domestic arts, the
whole standard Of home life would
be raised" point out the promoters.
Therefore Kings College for
Women has opened its doors to spe-
cial courses for training women in
the study Of the science Of the house
hold 1t Is hoped in that way TO in
sure for the schools Q continual sup
ply Of TEACHERS qualified to give girls

that means to mitigate the present

Rain At Last.

After weeks of waiting, with frequent
showers all around US but nothing more
than one or two light sprinkles of rain
here in town during the month of May,
Rising Sun got good, heavy downpour
on Wednesday evening, that has freshen-
ed things up wonderfully and put new
life into all vegetation. A heavy gust
passed over this section, the rain begin
ing about six o'clock, and at about eight
coming down in torrents. The storm
lasted until about nine o'clock. Rain has
been badly needed in this section for
weeks. the continued dry weather greatly
retarding all growing crops, the grass and
wheat being probably the worst sufferers,
and these crops will undoubtedly be
greatly shortened as result of the drouth
that has prevailed. Naturally, Wednes-
day evenings rain was greatly apprecia-
ted, and everyone feels doubly thankful
for it.

Father OF Rural Delivery.

William B. Baker, the former member
of Congress, who is generally credited
with having been the originator OF the
rural free mail delivery system as it now
extends all over the United States. Is
dead at his home in Aberdeen, Md.
A memorial should be erected to this
man, and the patrons served by every
rural route in the country should contrib
ute to its construction. Mr.. Baker did
more to Danish solitude and carry light
into remote sections than any other indi-
vidual. Through his efforts the daily
papers are delivered in homes which
were formerly forced to content them-
selves with weekly mail trip to distant
postofice.
Since Uncle Sam has gone SO extensive
ly into rural delivery, the travelling
library has also sprung into existence.
and through the magazines. papers and
standard books many States and clubs
are circulating throughout remote coun-
try districts, education is being advanced
at rapid rate. The county high school.
with its courses in agriculture, has devel-
oped along with the mail service and the
circulating library, and agricultural dis
tricts, once out of touch with the worlds
activities, are finding themselves.-Nash-
vile Tennessean.

SO YEARS AGO.

Mr.. John T. Burkins, Rising Suns old
est resident, in commenting on the item
published last week in which it named
the first board Of commissioners elected
in Rising Sun, in 1861, gives some inter-
esting "reminiscences of that period. The
board which was elected in 1861 was for
the purpose of procuring charter to in
corporate the town. Job Haines, one of
the board, had position in the Comp
troller's office at Annapolis at the time
and the procuring of the charter was
placed in his hands. 1t was granted by
the legislature the following winter. but
on account of the war the board did not
organize and the matter was not again
taken up until 1867. In 1861 the railroad
had temporary station in Edwin Haines'
warehouse which was located where the
present warehouse of Duyckinck, Sterrett
& Co., now stands. A few years later a
station was built where the present one
town commissioners was elected in 1867
it was for the purpose of procuring loan
for the purpose of building boardwalks.
street crossings, Strengthening and put
ting Queen street in passable condition.
The board elected in 1867 was composed
of John Kirk, John Bowden, John Cald-
we'll. John Burkins and Job Haines.
They borrowed $1,000 for the purpose
mentioned and straightened the street
which runs to the present railroad station,
the road formerly leaving the present
street about, at the Catholic church, cross
ing the railroad where the freight build
ing now stands and winding around to
Henry ,Briscoe's front porch. During wet
seasons it was almost impossible, being
hub deep with mud. w. w. Carter now
living in Oxford. was the first station
agent here after the station was built. !

Olllna The State Road.

In addition to macadamizing the sec
ton of State road from the concrete bridge
at Howard Browns mill to the cross roads
at Thankless Lane, the entire three
mile section east of town. is to be
swept, oiled, top-dressed and rolled.
A tank-car of oil and also several
carloads of Clipped stone for top-dressing
have been received, and the stone
deposited along the roadside. The work
of sweeping and oiling began on Monday.
This treatment will undoubtedly put the
road in better condition to resist the
wear occasioned by the speeding of
autos. than when first built, as the
oil will prevent the tearing up and scatter
ing of the top dressing by the auto tires.
