FACTS AND FICTION.
Experiences Of Bryan Citizens Are
Easily Proven To Be Facts.

The most superficial investigation
, will prove that the following state
ment from a resident of Bryan is
true. Read it and compare evidence
from Bryan people with testimony OF
strangers living so far away you can
not investigate the facts of the case.
Many more citizens of Bryan will en-
dorse Doans Kidney Pills.
T. II. Brown, farmer, Bryan, Texas,
says: 81 had kidney trouble for so
long that | almost despaired of ever
being relieved. The pains in my back
were the worst feature of my case.
Hearing of Doans Kidney Pills, pro
cured a supply at r. r. Emmel's drug
store, and began their use. Since then

EXPRESS lNQN2l 3EG'Ni

New Yort Nov 2e.-The interstate
commerce commission began a series
of importart hearings in this city to-
day with the object Of determining
whether the rates charged by the big
eXpres; comnanies doing business in
the United States are reasonable ana
lust. The investigation is regarded as
one OF the most important that the
commission has yet undertaken. 1t is
the direct result of numerous com
plants received from commercial o.
carnations aud individual shippers in
all parts of the country. These com
plaints have cited many alleged abuses
incident to the regulations and prac,
tees of the express companies.
The commission will endeavor tc
find out why the express companies
PERSIST in keeping their tariffs practlc
ally secret. The basis of their division
of profits with the railroads also viii
receive attention
The express companies have shown
some disposition to oppose the lnVesti
cation and it is not expected the in
side facts in the matter will be gained
except as the result of a strenuous
fight.

THE CITY SCHOOLS
..r..-.''
The People Should Know All About

The present superintendent has
spent four years advocating higher at.
tainments both in subject matter and
in profes sional training 1t takes this
in any teaching force in order to Sc.
cure the best work The people are
entitled to information on this ques.
ton. They pay the bills and should
know the qualifications and progress
sive steps taken by those to whom
they send their children. The purpose
of these notes is to give information
to the public. The schools are public
institutions, so why not tell the public
what goes on? Many good things
have been done and the public would
know that it may commend the same.
The teachers generally have respond.
ed to the call for progressive move
ment and deserve hearty commenda-
ton. The improvement of teachers al
ready in service is great question,
and one which we are all trying II
solve in the very best possible way.

DR.. William J. Milne of the New
York State Normal College has point
ed out the weakness of those who
have college education but have
never studied methods of teaching
That is the great mistake of so many
folks. They think that if a teacher
comes with college degree that it is
sufficient without course in methods
of teaching. No greater mistake could
be made. Just here it may not be oui
of order to say that all the teachers
in the Bryan schools have degrees.
Superintendent Lawson, Mr.. Kinnard,
Mr. OXley, Mr., Vance and Miss We'd
dington have had regular professional
courses.

Herman Harrell Horne, Phi. d., OF
Dartmouth College, in his new book
on The Psychological Principles OF
Education" speaking of a rational
method of instruction, says; This is
one of the weakest spots in both our
theory of education and our school
practice" This is strong evidence
from one of the ablest of American
thinkers showing that the professional
training of those who are at work
with the children is the proper poinJ
from which school improvement can
be secured. Now. that is just why the
superintendent studies professional
books all the time and urges the
teachers to do the same.

Life is growth and professional life
is professional growth. To the super.
intendent of the Bryan schools the
last four years give pleasing illustra-
ton of just such life of professional
growth in the case of Mr.. c. NJ. Beth
any, principal of the Westside school.
He was a young married man, already
well qualified for the work for which
he was assigned, but he urged no eX-
cuses. On the contrary, he entered
heartily into the spirit of the progress
sive movement planned for the Bryan
teachers and put into it his very best
efforts. Every summer since he has
been here has found him in 4 summer
school, and every winter has found
him using spare time at home on his
books. What he is doing tells the
story of what any teacher who is ear.
nest. enthusiastic, aspiring and pro
gressiye can do. Bryan was fortunate
in securing him for the work to which
he has been assigned Other exam

No teacher worthy of the positioG
he holds ever objects to professional
work required. 1t has fascination
for him and he enjoys going far be-
yond mere devices, and becomes a
student of the life history of human
ity. and the stages of growth for each
of which proper training must be af-
forded. He forgets mere requirements
and pushes his Investigations further
and further, anxious to know more OF
the study which ever lures him on.
