seriously with the college work of the stu

reasonable and proper that the college au-

Who's On The End Of The Log?

A good many years ago a great
man was asked what were the
necessary requirements of a good
education. His immediate reply
was to have Mark Hopkins, "a
famous educator of the day. on
one end of log and a boy on the
other.
Some people in this day and age
accept that as literal specifica-
ton for a school. They provide
their children with the log upon
which to sit (not always a good
log) but instead of placing a great
mind on the other end of the log
they take some little girl, perhaps
wearing her first long skirt, often
girl whose pa" is some pumpkins
in the district and expect her to
pilot these youthful minds through
the devious paths of literature and
mathematics.
Quite often she is hired because
she can be secured for $50 per
month, and is willing to teach for
that until some boy in the neighbor-
hood, whose share in last years
corn crop was large enough to pay
for a horse and buggy, gets up
courage enough to install her in
home of her own.
AS an example of the prepara-
ton which some of these school
ma'ams" have, here are few SEN
fences from a letter which we re-
ceived only last week from an 49,
year-old girl. Contrary to our
usual custom we point it as it is
written, emitting parts.

1t Might Be Worse.

Consider Mr.. Shadrach,
OF fiery furnace fame;
He didn't bleat about the heat
Or fuss about the flame.
He didn't stew or worry
And get his nerves in kinks,
Nor fill his skin with lines and gin
And other cooling drinks"
Consider Mr. Meshach,
Who felt the furnace, too;
He let it sizz, nor queried, is
It hot enough for yOu?"
He didn't mop his forhead
And hunt a shady spot;
Nor did he say, Gee! what dayl
Believe me, it's some hot"
Consider, too, Abed-ne-gO
Who shared his comrades plight;
He didn't shed his coat and make
Himself holy sight.
He didn't wear suspenders
Without a coat and vest;
Nor did he scowl and snort and howl
And make himself a pest,
Consider, friends, this trio
How little fuss they made.
They didn't curse when it was worse
Than ninety in the shade.
They moved about serenely
Within the furnace bright,
And soon forgot that it was hot,
With mo relief in sight"

articles in use every day on the

These are not all the mistakes
contained in this letter, but they
are fair samples of this young
lady's ability to handle the mother
tongue. Yet to this young person,
according to the laws of our state,
and the certificates of the county
officials of one of our most pros
porous counties, has been granted
the right to instruct others.
If the truth were known, there
are many now in the school rooms
in this and other states, who would
make more mistakes in writing the
same number of words.
But as long as we furnish only
the log and expect to place the
cheapest mind Obtainable upon the
other end, we can expect little else.

Clark On Tariff.

Champ Clark, in closing the de-
bate for the passage of the wool
bill over Taft's veto, among other
things said:
The President had a right to
veto this bill if he wanted to do so.
/ am not quarreling with him. l am
lamenting his lack of wisdom, as
his personal friend. He has raised
an issue that will rage with un-
abated fury until the close of the
polls in November, 1912. | am
not going to say anything deroga-
tory of this tariff board, but l am
going to say what | think, as al
ways do But any member of the
ways and means committee knows
more about the tariff than that en-
tire tariff board rolled together. l
have been preparing for the wool
bill for the last twenty years." said
Mr. Clark. They say that we are
playing politics. Whenever any
one stands up and undertakes to do
anything for the benefit of the
great masses of people, he is de-
nounced by the interests. That is
dema9oguery. But to stand up and
advocate the cause of the interests
is the highest evidence of states
manship. The President made a
speech at Winona. The only part
of that speech that was any good
was that part of it in which he said
the wool schedule was too high and
ought to be reduced. was so GER
tain that the President would sign
the bill cutting down the wool tar

be made in the United States on
that proposition. l took him at
his word. / never did believe he
