The school district of a few square
miles Is the educational unit in the
state Of New York. The residents are
generally unwilling to give up this par
tcular institution even though de-
creasing population makes a very
small attendance at school. Consoli-
dalton of school districts has been ad
vocated as means OF strengthening
districts and Offering better opportuni-
ties for supervision and instruction
No doubt consolidation Is valuable.
However. there will still be country
districts where 1t is impossible to
transport the children and where it Is
necessary to keep up a high standard
for the school for the children living
In the community.

BOY SCOUTS IN RUSSIA
Tiny Warriors Go Through Their Ev- oIutions Under the Eye of
 the Emperor.

The review of the boy scouts by the czar at St. Petersburg was de- lightful spectacle. The vast expanse of the Mars field was checkered by the scarlet, green, white and khaki uniforms of the tiny warriors, whose evolutions were watched with delight by immense crowds. The bright sum- shine was tempered by a breeze.
 As the emperor and his suite rode down the lines, greeting each detach- ment, the boys answered in Russian soldier fashion: "We wish good health to your majesty" Each sepa- rate command then demonstrated its special aptitudes. To the accompa- niment of their own bands they went through drills and gymnastic exer- eises. The Tashkent battalion pro- duced some excellent fencers; the Odessa contingent, 1000 strong, showed admirable training; there was a football team, which kicked the ball among the imperial suite, much to the czar's amusement; and small tremen climbed dummy houses. The march past of the 5000 boys lasted 10 minutes. One little drummer was five years old. A tiny brigade had a tiny ambulance drawn by donkey. The czar, who was hugely delighted, thanked each detachment, and after the review expressed his gratitude to the officers and the schoolmasters.
 The movement is growing rapidly. Russia will soon have 200,000 boy soldiers.

Pleasing Street Parade

When the Yankee Robinson street parade appeared in sight today there were many exclama- tions of pleasure and admira- tion from the large crowd that was watching it from the side walks and tall buildings.
 The parade was net so large as Ringing Bros. parade for in- stance, but that is not what it takes to please a crowd; our peo- pie want quantity, not quality in the circus line as in everything else-and the quality of the Yankee Robinson parade was very creditable indeed. The horses were simply fine, as good any circus horses that ever come o Beloit and better than most lof them. Good horses more than any other one feature go to make up a gtreet parage. The other most notable feature of the pageant was the pretty cos. tunes of the lady riders. So far as the writer known those were the handsomest costumes ever worn by ladies in a circus street parade in Beloit.
 Judging from the parade the afternoon and evening will be good and worth seeing .-Beloit Kansas Daily Gazette.

POPULAR GERMAN PRINCESS.

The most talked of princess in the German emperor's household is Princess Eitel Frederick, the wife of the second son. She is very charm ing woman and the kaiser is quite fond of her, his only regret being that his son has no children. The wife of the oldest son, heir to the throne, is the mother of three chil- tiren, which pleases the kaiser.

American life is the ignorance as to tn,
use of bunting. For any teacher not t
know and teach the right use of bunt
ing is absurd.
Never use bunting with stars other
than white.
Never use bunting with stars any
where except in the blue stripe.
1t is as vicious to have red stars and
blue stars in bunting as it would be to
have red stars on the blue of the flag
and blue stars on the red stripes.
The only correct stars on bunting are
white, and the only place for them is
on the blue stripe.
In hanging bunting the blue stripe
should always be at the top.
How would the flag look if the blue
with. its stars was at the lower left
corner? Bunting is just as unpatriotic
and represents as dense ignorance
when the blue stripe is at the bottom
as it would if the flag was hung bottom
up.

Day how this should be done. journal

Polish Miners in Linden.

In his last weeks mining notes j. H
Lewis among other things has this t
say concerning Linden:
Linden is peopled almost entirely
by Cornish. They began coming into
the mining field in the thirties and in.
PRODUCED mining industry in the field.
Now the old time Cornish settlers are
becoming uneasy. Twenty Polish min
ers are now at work at the Optimo
mine, and much credit for the fine
showing made by this property must be
chalked up to the imported men. Fiji
teen more arrived during the week and
were snapped up with little ceremony.
In one weeks milling at the Optimo
mine recently, the company recovered
lis tons of zinc ore and twenty tons of
lead ore. The main drift is being car
ried directly under the village proper
and the mine forehead is only few
hundred feet from the main street.

more suitable can be suggested than
the wearing of spray of evergreen or
