to the normal child, a time of delight
and Of bright anticipations. He who
presents it in any other aspect is COM
hitting a crime against childhood.
The teacher, who for the months
to come. assumes the position, II not
the relation Of parent to the children
placed in her care. assumes . respon-
sibility that is sometimes regarded
entirely too lightly. Nerves and tenn
per should be eliminated from the
teacher or the teacher should elimin-
ate herself from the school room. The
two are incompatible. The child, even
as the adult, has certain rights which
should be sacred to the teacher. To
wrongly criticise Is Is much an error
on the part of the teacher as to fail
to govern. To unjustly accuse is to
cause the child to lose confidence in
fairness, and to wrongly contradict is
to destroy his respect for truth. To
unjustly injure the formative mind of
the child is to scar the developed
man or woman.
The teacher who fails to intelli-
gently impart knowledge to her class
es sins against intelligence. To teach
in such a bungling fashion that men,
tai power is confused and mental de-
velopment retarded is to undermine.
if not destroy the future of the child.
Therefore. it is the duty of the teacher
to examine herself and see if she is
fully competent to fulfill the task she
has undertaken. If she is capable of
calling into activity all the dormant
possibilities Of the children entrust-
ed to her care. she will add to the
happiness of the child's first school
day of the year and she will contrib
ute her part to the building of the
intellect and character Of those whose
destinies she holds in her keeping.

THE CHILD MOVEMENT IN TEXAS,

Populating rural Texas with CITY,
born babies is a feature of the back
to-the-farm movement that merits en-
couragement, albeit it wrenches all
u sensibilities to part with the tots.
For one thing. the little folks are
spared the pain Of parting with life
long friends and associations, while
growing up with the country from
babyhood manifestly has its advan-
tages ove beginning life anew after
the habits Of city life nce have been
formed. The baby immigrant grows
up as if to the manner born, while
its elders who seek to better their
condition are slow to accommodate
themselves to the new life. Too often
they fail altogether, and drift back to
the city the worse for the venture.
1t might be urged against the tiny
newcomers that years must elapse be-
fore they can begin to recompense in
a pecuniary sense the good people into
whose hands fate consigned them. but
this argument loses force in the face
of the fact that what they have contri-
the fact that what they have contri-
buted to the cheer and sunshine of
hitherto childless homes Offsets the
monetary point Of view a thousand
fold. Anyway. in the end they will
have justified the outlay by their own

TO LIVE OR NOT TO Liver

The soliloquizings Of the melan-
choly Dane may have been no more
than the vaporings of a diseased i'm
agination. halting irresolute between
the natural impulse to renewed activ-
tiles and an equally impelling desire
to anticipate the inevitable by calling
the game before it is halfway through.
But the great poet who dipped his pen
into his own heart was not given to
creating impossible characters, with
thoughts and deeds at variance with
the general run of human experience,
and there are evidences innumerable
that the momentous question of ito

solved, In one way or another by more
than n poor mortal.
When Sienkiewicz wrote his Quo
Vadis. admittedly the least Of his
great productions, he fell foul Of the
animadversions of the critics by hav-
ing Petronius and his beloved slave

surroundings. They cried against the
falsity of the whole situation. Yet.
on the second day of the present

the same Roman stock, struggling
against fate in New York city, gave
as his last contribution to an unfeel-

days after Storniolo's death a quartet
of singers and a violinist gave a con-
cert in the lighthouse at Sing Sing
to fourteen condemned murderers
awaiting the summons to the electric
chair. 1t was the first time such an
event had ever occurred in that grim
quarter, and it was received with

BUG ALIVE IN SOLID ROCK.
(Salt Lake Correspondence New York
Times.)

(Salt Lake Correspondence New York
Times.)
Entomologists here have found
something that has stumped them, and
they are likely to call on their breth-
rem elsewhere to help them out. It
is q bug that has been taken from an
apparently solid piece Of rock blasted
out more than 200 feet below the sur
face.
The find was made BY W. J. Wosten-
holme. general manager Of the Sham
rock Gold Minine and Milling company
at Marysvale. recently. He was go
ing vel the dump looking at the
broken ore that had come up from
the mine in order to pick out some
specimens he wanted to use. He
broke open what appeared to be q
solid piece Of rock, first cracking It
with a hammer. When he separated
1t he found in a little cavity q bug
about q quarter Of an inch long. It
was not very lively, but it was alive.
He examined the rock to see II there
was any f1ssure that could let in air
to the insect, but there was no evi-
dence Of any.
Mr.. Worstenholme was particularly
interested because about q year ago
George F. Dalton. the president Of the
company, while hunting specimens.
came across q similar bug In q sim
liar little hole in what appeared to be
solid rock. This had been taken from
hard q~uartzite that had been blasted
out 100 feet below the surface. Mr..
Dalton consulted some experts in such
things, but they could not tell him
what he had found. As a matter Of
curiosity he put the bug in a sealed
bottle, and 1t lived for months with
out any visible means Of subsistence.
The entomologists here are very
much interested in this new find, and
1t is expected that a full description
Of the bug will be sent to various au-
thorities IN the subject in the hope
that some one Of them may be able
to tell what 1t is and something Of the
phenomena surrounding its life under
such remarkable conditions.

upon his mind the untruth that school
and its duties are things to be avoid

The child delights in new things

unknown. School affords the oppor-
