HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
lBY GRAEME O'GERAN.)

There is certainly nothing the mat
ter with the high school when it comes
to football and football spirit.
The "Orioles," team composed of
high school boys, has recently been or
ganized, and when IL comes to real en-
thusiasm the official school team hasn't
anything over the Orioles.
The team is under the efficient man
agement OF Adolph Johnson, while
Jack Markham, one OF the schools
most ardent boosters was chosen cap
tain.
The line up for the Orioles is as fol-
lows: Ends, McCauley and Smith; tack
les, Fred Dueno and T.. Pankratz;
guards, l.. Duffy and Bob Markham;
center, Mike Hanson quarterback,
Jack Markham; half-backs, Johnson
and Sidney Lang; full-back, Lewis Ny
hagen.
Their first game played was at the
West Side grounds with the Luling
school team. The score, which was
400 In favor of the Orioles, shows the
quality OF the team. The features ol
the game were the tackles Of McCauley
and Smith and twenty-five yard rur
by johnson. Now that the regular
team has no more home games, bu,
must seek its laurels elsewhere, the
games played by the Orioles are worth
seeing. The next gene is slated fol

Professor Barnes of Philadelphia in
his address at Milwaukee last week
said 'Children love to function where
they function we'll" BY this he meant
they like TO do what they can do we'll.
In other words, teachers must drill
and drill pupils until they can do the
things well that are before them.
They dislike school and school work
when they are continually called upon
and make very poor recitation.
This is good food for thought.

EDUCATIONAL.
(BY G. W. MEISNEST.)

The following are some of the ex-
cerpts from the Milwaukee State
Teachers meeting:
Booker T. Washington in an ad-
dress before the State Teachers Asso-
citation said that the Tuskegee Institute
OF which he was the head, owned and
cultivated 1900 acres of land, and has
nearly 100 buildings. This institution
is only about thirty years old At this
institute they teach practical things,
such as cooking. sewing, baking, brick
making, carpentry, etc. just like any
other new venture, the negroes of the
south were strongly opposed to this
kind of education. Booker T. Wash
ington worked hard and pleaded with
his people for this kind Of work and
finally won out. Almost al of the
buildings erected at that institute
were erected by his pupils and with
material made by his pupils at that
institute. The Southern Educator,
in criticising our general methods of
teaching regarding spelling says that
the trouble is we have nothing to
spell, and cited an instance where the
southern negro could not learn how to
spell the word horse until he actually
owned one of his own. Then it was a
simple matter.
He says that there is no reason why
the school should be any different than
the home, and he has in his vicinity
humber of country schools with a
kitchen, dining room, sitting room and
laundry. Here the children learn to
do real things. The children were
divided up into different sections, one
day they do some cooking. next day
they do work in the laundry, next day
do some serving, etc. This, in addition
to the regular ordinary routine of
school work seems to be the ideal
school of Booker T. Washington. In
his commencement exercises he has
also made diversion from the regular
method. Some actual agricultural
topic which the pupil has studied in
school is given as commencement
talk by some of the pupils. Booker
Il. Washington claims there are at
least two advantages Of having this
kind of exercises in preference to the
knows what he is talking about, and
second, the people know what he is
talking about.
Prof. Bailey of Cornell said that it is
his impression that the farms in
general will grow larger instead Of
smaller. He said that it does not pay
to produce the maximum on our land.
There is at least one reason for large
farms and that is that the equipment
required on an eighty acre farm is
practically the same as that required
on the lG0 acre farm. The advance
along farm lines that must be made
are in line with the modern improve
ments suggested by our scientific
people. We must not be satisfied with
the same OLD thing in the same old
way. Professor Bailey told the story
of why the farmer. when asked the
reason he plowed around large stone
for number of years, said that he had
to do it in this way as that stone al
ways was there.

Anton Vogt, an old settler of this
city, aged 70 years, died last Thursday
