GREETING TO THE TEACHERS
OF AUDUBON COUNTY

On the nineteenth day of June the
teachers of Audubon County will
again assemble in the capacity of a
Normal Institute.
OBJECT OF NORMAL INSTITUTES
The importance of the Normal In
stitute as a part of our school system
cannot easily be overestimated. To
many teachers it is the only school
in which they can get any training
in the best means of discipline and
the most improved methods of in
struction. To many others 1t is the
only place in which they can go an
nually for new draughts of inspira-
ton and enthusiasm to refresh them
selves for another years work.
The most important thing to be
done in an institute is not to impart
information that will assist in secur-
ing a certificate nor alone to drill in
the latest and best methods of teach
ing, but to inspire the lifeless,
discouraged, and elevate the teach
ers' ideals of their work and life.
INSTITUTE ATTENDANCE
The intent of the new law seems
to be that all teachers shall attend
the institute and to enforce this pro-
vision, the County Superintendent is
required to furnish to the State Su-
perintendent the names OF all per-
sons who attend together with a
statement of the number of days at
tendance.
We would say to a few teachers in
the county that it will be impossible
for you to receive renewal of certifi-
Gates unless you are extremely eau
tious in the future Of your Institute
attendance and professional reading.
We have certainly been Ienient, but
we cannot bring ourselves TO certify
to false statement in your behalf.
Don't disregard the old saying "A
word to the wise is Sufficient" Even
the scarcity of teachers will not save
the day" We hope to see you in at
tendance, 1t will help you, II will help
us all. You need us, we need you.
ARRANGEMENT OF
INSTITUTE WORK
Institute proper will begin on Mon
day, June 10, and continue until Sat-
urday afternoon. Monday and Tues
day of second week will be devoted

and enter any class you wish.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTOR OF THE
ALDINE SYSTEM OF PRIMARY
REAnING

For some time we have been try
ing to decide upon some way of inn
proving the reading of pupils in the
rural schools. Reading is the key to
all other studies, therefore We must
consider 1t first in importance. After
considerable thought along this line
We have decided to adopt this system
believing it to be the most feasible
for the use of rural teachers. 1t is
especially necessary for some sys-
tenn like this in county where there
are so many children who must learn
the languages at the same time they
are learning to read. This system
properly taught will be a great aid
to those children. If teachers are
really interested In their pupils pro-
gress they will hail this as an oppor-
tunity for them as teachers to get
out of an old rut and give to their
pupils some live material. We want
to see our teachers receive a living
wage but we want them TO give back
to the patrons of the schools value
received. We want good reading,
good writing, good spelling.
RURAL PUPILS EXAMINATION
A special will be held for those
who did not take music and civics
but passed in previous examination
in other branches, on Friday, June
30. We should like to have pupils
ready to write by 10000 a. m. of that
day. Pupils must notify us If they
wish to take this. If there are any
pupils in the county who have not
received report of their examina-
tons, please notify me-
NEW LAWS GOVERNING
CERTIFICATES
We cannot give you these regula-
tons as the State Superintendent is
still wrestling with them and has
not been able to give us information.

adrenolin glands and portion Of the
pancreas. The juices secreted by this
gland, according to Chicago physi-
clans, largely control the growth of
the bones of the body. When the Sc
cretion is plentiful the bones grow to
an abnormal size, but when it is COM
paratively small in quantity the
growth Of the bones is retarded. When
the secretion is caused to flow freely,
say physicians, rapid development of
the bones is the result. Thus, when a

cabinet work. There are between 500
and 900 different species of the cac-
tus family and the actual number
probably greatly exceeds this. They
are without exception natives of Amer
lea and their extraordinary forms con-
stitute remarkable feature in the
vegetation of the warmer regions. All
Of them have fleshy stems, often very
soft and juicy and in numerous in
stances suitable for good. Most of
them are leafess, only few species
having true leaves. Instead of leaves
most of the cacti have clusters of hairs
or thorn.
The whole organization of the cac-
tus adapts it to withstand long
droughts They vegetate vigorously
during part of the year when mois-
ture is available and then rest for a
long time. Some of the cacti family
grow on high mountains reaching
nearly to the limit of the snow, while
others thrive only in torrid districts.
The plants of this botanical order are
a great boon to the natives of the dis
tricts in which they grow, generally

of many of the varieties contain a
wholesome juice of which both men
and livestock avail themselves, and
some species produce pleasant fruit.

MENTAL ACCURACY
Greatly Improved by Leaving Off Coffee

The manager of an extensive cream
cry in Wis states that while regu-

Gus to his health and hindrance to
the performance Of his business du-
ties.
"It impaired my digestion, gave me
a distressing sense of fullness in the
region of the stomach, causing most
painful and disquieting palpitation of
the heart, and what is worse, it mud
died my mental faculties so as to ser1-
ously injure my business efficiency.
"I finally concluded that something
would have to be done. quit the use
of coffee, short off, and began to drink
Postum. The cook didn't make it
right at first. She didn't boil 1t long
enough, and I did not find it palatable
and quit using it and went back to cof-
fee and to the stomach trouble again.
"Then my wife took the matter in
hand, and by following the directions
on the box, faithfully, she had me
drinking Postum for several days be-
for 1 knew it.
"When I happened to remark that
I was feeling much better than l had
for a long time, she told me that 1
had been drinking Postum, and that
accounted for it. Now we have no
coffee on our table.
"My digestion has been restored,
and with this improvement has come
relief from the oppressive sense OF
fullness and palpitation Of the heart
that used to bother me so. I note such
a gain in mental strength and acute
ness that I can attend to my office
work with ease and pleasure and with

annoying to me while I was using
