WHAT Is A RADICAL

Governor Woodrow Wilson Of New Jersey:
"Wha is called radicalism in our
day Is derived from the Latin word
which means root. Ii means sim
ply going TO the rcot Of things. 1t
means not being contented with
merely trimming the branches off
the tree, but gong TO the root of il
renewing and enriching the soil and
making good those things from
which the whole tree is drawn"
The radical In our time takes
leave to open his eyes wide and see
things as they are. In order to be
RATIONAL, you must see all Of the facts
and a reasonable radical i. the ONLY
kind worth talking to. To be an
unreasonable radical is lust az bad

that while examining Mrs. Ida G..
Gavette tor a course Of thorough base
and composition IN music with our
school, | found her possessing a
knowledge quite above the average
teacher and desire to to be honest
in teaching music.
In my travels, | find so many
teachers who teach their pupils
pieces OF music without them learn
ing the rudIments; some will even
exhibit pupils ia public for adver-
tlsement, but such pupils get very
little musical knowledge except those

Monday and Tuesday. promises 10
be the best attended meeting of the
kind ever beld Not only is the pro-
gram full Of subjects interesting to
the head and the pocketbook, but
important business is coming up
connected with the publication of
constitutional amendments. This
legislature passed number of laws
that aid the cause of general publ
city, at the same time being Of a
nature that will increase he public
welfare. II appears, however, that
under the present constitution the
publishing of amendments and of
initiated and referred laws is likely
to prove very expensive While it
seems to ne the unanimous opinion
OF the newspaper men of Colorado
that our present legal rate is low
enough, ,alreadv lower than in any
other state of which we have know
ledge many consider il advisable 70
to initiate a law which will reduce

Silent Prayer Puts
Quietus on Things

That silent prayer at the lunch hour in
the country school will act as a quietus
upon the desire Of exuberant youth to
throw apple cores, egg shells and other
missiles. was a suggestion made by Miss
Gertrude Rowans OF the University OF
Nebraska extension department at the
meeting Of the rural school section Of the
Teachers convention Friday.
Since every member who was 10 have
appeared on the program failed to show
up the young men and women got to-
gether and had a heart to heart talk on
the problems which they are facing as
county school teachers The problem of
the noon hour was conceded to be one Z
tho greatest
Miss Rwans further stated that the
children should spread their lunches on
one table and eat together instead of
each diving into his or her own dinner
pail. Nothing has a more civllizing in
fluence than swapping victuals," she
maintained.
Miss Anna East, also Of the university
extension department, made a plea for q
hot lunch at noon, saying that both
teachers and pupils work better with hot
soup, vegetables or other hot food inside
them. The country child rises early,
has an early breakfast. works all morn
ing and at noon should have hot lunch
Instead of cold one"
Miss Hulda Peterson Of Holdrege said
that family fueds in her district kept the
school children In a constant ferment un-
til she learned how to play base ball and
organized teams among the boys,
Principal Fred Hunter Of the Univer-
sity Agricultural school discussed the re-
latlon OF moral and physical education.
