The Frenchwomen are q lot more dar-

skirts are no divided compromises, but
are real pants" as you can see. The
only difference seems to be that they
are little baggy as to seat and have
a funny little apron continuance In

The map is based upon the original Hayden atlas and is brought up to date by other au- thorities and Prof. Lakes own intimate knowledge of the igneous area of the state.
 Probably no man in Colorado is more familiar with it's geology than Prof. Lakes, since he has been citizen of the state for quarter of century, and during that time has devoted himself, almost without interruption, to field activity in behalf of his chosen science.
 The book is entitled Prospecting in Colorado" 1t is first rate guide to the prospector who may be actuated by the recent grubstake movement in Den yer to spend the present season in the most promising undeveloped mineral sections of the Centennial State. The price of this booklet is S1.

Where He Put His Savings

As the new district visitor looked at Mir. Leahy and noted his determined chin, she had a momentary sensation of reluctance to question him, but she overcame it, and began her appointed task.
 "Where do you deposit your wages, Mr. Leahy, if you've no objection to telling mel" she asked. ''I am trying to interest the neighborhood in the ex- cellent Peoples bank, lately started"
 "Sure, I'd as soon tell you as not," said MT. Leahy cheerfully.

The Republic of Alaska

The ultimate destiny of Alaska is to become nation in itself, said MT. Fall con Joslin, addressing the house com mittee at Washington fourteen months ago. The average distance of Alaska from the seat of government at Wash ington is upward of 5000 miles, and the time, expense and difficulty of travel to Washington is greater than it would be from Washington to St.. Petersburg. It is impossible, he de- clared, that Alaska can eyer become an integral part of the nation similar to the existing states and territories.
 We quote MT. Joslin as authority be- cause, as all persons must agree who heard his speeches during The political campaign last summer, MT. Joslin, in constructive and far-sighted statesman. ship, ranks easily formost of all Alas kans.
 Alaska differs from the rest of the world over which the Stars and Stripes dy. There are territories, peopled mostly by Americans, which are of a piece with the United States There are territories, peopled mostly by the dark skinned races, which are separated from the United States proper by Vari ous widths of oceaD- But Alaska IS peopled by Americans and dark.skins in almost equal number and is also an ocean voyage distant from the main body of the United States.
 The very wisest members of congress evince gingerIy attitude when called upon to classify Alaska. One calls it strictly the "Dstrict of Alaska; an. other. more generously, the "Territory of Alaska; while Mr. Mann, the able leader of the republicans in the house, calls it discreetIy, "a part of the Dis trict of the United States, populated: adds Senator Clarke, of Arkansas, by a "lot of disconnected, dissociated, non' contiguous neighbOThoods, with no CO., herenGe, no public opinion, to be oreat- ed into law" It is the lack of contig. uity, not only within the territory itself, but between Alaska and the states, that places Alaska in a class by herself. Before we discuss whether 1 Alaska shall be admitted to the Union as one state or four states, it must be settled whether she will be admitted al all. It will be something new in the history of the republic to take into that family of states territory that does not form compact body with the rest of the family, and while the aver age person may see no reason in com mon sense why it should not be done we must remember that republics, oi all political entities, are siowest tc make new departures from precedentE es established by forefathers.-Fairbanks 1 Times.

Institute with a reading which
was enjoyed by all.
Before taking up the regular
work of the Institute, the In
structor called for a review of
the previous days work. In
this review the memory, imagi-
nation and judgment stages. in
the growth of the child, were
taken up. The Instructor said
that the child in it's life, ply
sically, mentally and morally
lives over the past experience of
the race, and it is the teachers
duty to lead him onward to gain
on the experience of his expert
ence of his ancestors and to do
his part to help on the progress
of the race. :" If the energy of
the child is being utilized the
child is being educated.
Recess.
This being Trustee Day, there
were about fifty trustees of Crit
tenden county schools, present.
There were several patrons and
visiting teachers present also.
The instructor addressed the
trustees, commencing the good
work they have done for the
schools, in the past year. He
also spoke of the duties and re-
sponsibilities of trustees fer up
on them depend. the education
of the future generations, and
the welfare of the nation. He
next spoke of the impure water
that has been used in schools
and of the necessity of pure wa.
ter being provided. The impor.
ance of the trustees knowing
the teachers, that they imploy,
was emphasized. They should
know that each and every teach.
er, that they employ, has high
sense of honor, is competent tC
teach, and fit for association
with the children.
The instructor spoke at length
upon the danger of tuberculosis
which is so often spread in the
school room. He then spoke o.
the help and encouragement ;

his memory for facts. leaving
out the details and complexities,
until he is ready for advanced
history. The lessons for the be-
ginner in history should always
be in story form in order to APP
peal to his memory.
Mr.. Nc Nicely discussed,
Faults in History Teaching"
bringing out plainly many mis-
takes often made in the teaching
of history. Mr.. McNeely said
that history lessons are easier
grasped il outlined and associ-
ated with other events. He also
said that History and Geography
must be correlated.
Miss BERTHE Kirk spoke of the
lack of interest often shown in
the study of history and said
that this was often caused by
the teachers neglecting to ex-
plain d dry lesson. Miss Kirk
said that to long lessons should
not be assigned and that pupils
should not be allowed to commit
their lesson to memory.
The instructor further said
that supplementary reading
would cause a pupil to take more
interest in history. A great
fault in history teaching is at
tempting to teach a class history
before they have got a vague
synthesis of the contents of the
book, and analized each chapter.
Mr.. Fred Hillard in discussing
a Teachers Preparation for
Teaching History, said that
the teacher should know
history and have an aim in view.
Prof. Christian, of M. H. S.,
gave splendid outline of U. S
History, and spoke of the neces'
sity of the teachers giving the
class a good outline.

tory was a record of events of the
institutions of our country. "
The three important institutions
being the Home, Church and
State. Few teachers place
enough emphasis upon the study
of the state.
Mr.. Harmon, of Bowling
Green. spoke to the teachers
about the Beautiful Spirit in
History, and of the pleasure
and enjoyment, as well as the
intrinsic value that the child
gets from the study of history
when it is made plain to him,
and the great men of our coun-
try are made known TO him in a
way that he can understand.
BY using the blackboard Mr..
Harmon illustrated his splendid
talk and pictured TO the teachers
they way TO make the Revolu-
ton and The Civil War plain.
Mr.. Harmon also talked of the
teachers duty to be interested
in the politics Of the country and
the different issues of our times.
Mr.. Richards expressed the
thanks OF the Institute TO Mr..
Harmon for his interesting and
l illustrated talk. speaking furth-
er the Instructor said THE
greatest hero is the man or
woman who is willing to live an
upright. law-abiding life for his
country" The Importance of
this thought should be impress
ed upon the minds of the school
children of today and thus pro-
mote the great peace movement
which is sweeping the universe.

The value of association of
historical facts" was next dis
cussed. The Instructor talked
upon this subject and in closing
said. There is a time in the life
of the child when he is a hero
worshiper, and when he reaches
this period he is ready for the
study of history, and the only
way for the child at this time &c
