Her first function is 20 provide the

as broad as the man is a fundamental
of education, and hence llle school can
do no less than provide an equipment
which shall consist of good health,

THE POSSIBILITIES OF

The public school system is main

state. It is an institution, therefore,
holding direct and responsible rela-

part
Its primary function, Is, of course,
the giving to the boys and girls Of this
generation, commonly called the
school population, 6-21, an equipment
which shall fit them for the duties
Of citizenship at majority; to so direc-
this coming citizenry that they may
be able to build wisely upon the foun-

already laid; and to so influence the
environment Of these growing citizens
that the training thus given may be

state and society in all of its require

In other words, the main function
of the school system is TO meet the
need Of the potential citizen at each
stage of his development and to give
him to the service of society. a full
rounded man, sound physically. sane
mentally and morally right, with all
of his powers quickened; that he may
take his place in life and make the
world in which he lives the better

that he had received it from a gentle
man whom he had met when he was
in Boston, delivering his lecture on the

card and then l, too, assumed a puZ-

How the Great Novelist Was Invited
to Exchange Professional Courte-
sizes by the Exhibitor of the
Giant Pat.

One hundred years ago July Is last
William Makepeace Thackeray was
born. Fifty-fve years later he made
his second successful lecture tour of
the United States.
During his second visit to this coun-
try Thackeray made the editorial Of
fees of Putnam's Magazine his New
York headquarters, said the late
Parke Goodwin, publicist and son-in-law
of William Cullen Bryant, to me a
few years ago, land we became accus-
toned TO daily visits from him which
he made in the most unceremonious
manner. George William Curtis and
were then the editors of the maya
zine. We took great delight in show
ing Thackeray about the town, and he
took equal delight in telling us of
some of his queer experiences in the
cities Of the country he had visited.
One day Thackeray came into the
office in his usual unconventional man
ner. He had upon his countenance
puzzled look, that, felt sure, was as
sumeu. He took from a pocket wal
let in which he kept cards and valu-
able papers, and after tossing the con-

Butler and the Shinplasters

Butler, whose Boston Office was in
Pemberton square, on the hill near
by, came into the hotel either on bust
ness or for luncheon. In some way
that frame full of scrip-which, of
course, by that time had all been re-.
deemed, for after the national banks
were established and the government
had also issued small currency notes
in denominations of from fifty cents
down to three cents there was no
longer any necessity for the use of
scrip-came to Ben Buffers notice.
He was greatly interested in it. He
asked many questions about it. He
wanted to know if the people were
willing to take it fer produce or
meats or other supplies. He wanted
to know if, having taken it, they had
any difficulty in passing it along. He
asked how the scrip was redeemed
and was told chiefly through the Of
fering of it at the cashiers desk in
the hotel in payment of board and
lodging
Why, that is all there is to a cir
culating medium Ben Butler said
All that is needed is something that
will serve as a medium in exchange
