The reaction of relief turned him,

what he feared worst had not happen

him, almost at once, when he saw

mortar wound, but a man OF roscoe S
physique let's go Of life slowly. He
was bleeding to death, internally, but
the process was. probably, retarded by
his huddled position as he lay there
in the tunnel
So he had lain still and awaited his
chance. Cayley was standing quite
at the edge of the cliff, and the mans
momentum carried him over. His
clutching hands grasped Cayley's
shoulders, and they went down to-
gether over 600 feet of empty space.
For Cayley the space was all too little.
AS they went over he thought that he
and his gigantic enemy were going
down to death together. Instructive
ly, and much quicker than a man can
think, he swept his great-fantail for
ward and flung himself back in an at
tempt to correct the balance destroyed
by the great weight that was clinging
to his shoulders
They were. OF course, bound to 20
down. Neither his strength nor the
area Of his planes was sufficient to
support them both In the air But in
the position into which he had flung
himself they would go down a little
more slowly. He would gain, perhaps,
precious second more.
But he did not waste even an in
finitesimal moment in any struggle
against the force Of gravity.
Twice, with all his might, he sent
his left fist crashing against the face,
the staring, horrible face, that con-
fronted his own. But still that con-
vulsive, dying grasp held fast.
They were now more than a bare
200 feet above the ice. With a SUI
preme effort, an effort whose sudden
ness awaited 1t better than its strength,
he wrenched himself free and the
great weight dropped off Another eff
fort, the instantaneous exertion of
every ounce of force he possessed, cor

the edge and looked over, but it was
too dark to see. The light of the au-

TEACHING AGRICULTURE
IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS

In the modern renaissance of agri
to take no small part. The Federal
government recognizes this fact and
by the Nelson law of 1906 provides
that a portion of the increase to the
Morrill, fund may be used for the pur.
pose of training teachers of agricul
ture in the public schools. The de.
mand for such training in the schools
of West Virginia, under the law re-.
curing elementary agriculture to be
taught in the free schools of the state,
led the board of regents of the state
university to provide a department of
Agricultural Education in the College
of Agriculture. Prof. A. w. Nolan,
who had charge of the departments of
horticulture, forestry and entomology
in the college, was recently trans
ferred to this new department.
The plans for this new department
have not been fully developed, but
some definite work has been outlined
for next year., proposing to help the
boys and girls and teachers in the pub

tin on school agriculture edited last
year by Prof. d. w. Working, will be
continued this year by Prof Nolan.
School Agriculture will be issued each
month of the school year beginning
next September. Each issue will con.
sist of eight lessons containing sim
,Nln dicorccionc
on agricultural subjects, adapted to
the needs and requirements of the
public schools, teaching agriculture.
1t is proposed also to issue monthly
bulletins on nature-study for teachers
of grades below the 7th and Sth,
where agriculture is taught. Nature.
study, properly taught in the primary
and intermediate grades, is the best
preparation possible for the study of
agriculture, as well as for other sci.
ences; and when we recall that the
majority of the people never get be.
yond the elementary grades of the
public schools, we see the importance
of teaching some of the laws of nature
and of life early in the school course.
The department of agricultural edu-
cation will cooperate with the county
superintendent and teachers Of the
state in pronoting the boys and girls
corn growing contests, and will assist
in any way it can in making the corn
show exhibits and contests a
success this fall. Contestants
will remember that the win
ners are entitled to compete for
the big state prizes in the corn show
at Keyser next December.
The head OF the department of agri.
cultural education and others in the
faculty OF the College of Agriculture
will visit many district institutes and
confer with the teachers in the prob.
lens of agriculture and nature-study
in the schools. Conferences are also
TO be held with high schools and nor.
mails in regard to the Introduction and
teaching of agriculture in these
schools. In all the ways possible the
department stands ready to help the
boys and girls and teachers of West
Virginia in the work of studying and
teaching agriculture in the public
schools, and through this cooperation
to enlarge the lives or the people Of
the open country
