Two million Of the seven million peo-
pie in Canada speSA only the French

English are in a preponderatng ma iority

Canada is concerned the two languages
are on an exactly equal basis. The toll
Grafton of any language other than Eng
lish is 50 foreign to the spirit of the
institutions Of the United States that
Americans are almost unable to APP
preciatc the troubles our northern neigh
bors have with their blinsual system
1t is true that there are more persons in
the United States who speak no English
than there in all Canada. but they
are nearly all recent immigrants. Their
children will go to English schools and
English will he their language: their
grandchildren will know no other tonsuc
than that of Shakespeare and George
Ade. This facility for asSimilating immi-
grants and forcing them to forget even
their mother tongue is the most aStonish-
ing thing bout the United States in the
eyes of foreigners Americans take it as
matter of course. The German en-
peror once said that he could understand
every action Of Germans in America ex-
cept their failure to teach their children
the language of the fatherland.
The one portion of the United States
in which foreign language persists is
in Louisiana and the southern part of
Alabama and Mississippi. where the
French language still is largely used. But
these southerners nowadays also speak
English for in every local community
the English-speaking people far out
number the French. In Louisiana Eng
fish was made the official language almost
as soon as the territory was purchased
from Napoleon and it so remains.

that the energy of some of these

tioning here that of these one

Idaho and Lewis, together with
many of the citizens of Grange

Gather in Largest Meeting
in History of County.

The teachers of two counties,
Idaho and Lewis counties, are
meeting together in Grangeville
this week, and the teachers in
stitute is therefore more interest
ing and lively than usual. Every
hour of the five days session is
crowded with helpful work. DR..
Howerth of the University of
Chicago is both interesting and
instructive. In a way that Sc
cures attention and holds it, he
is enabled to present his instruc-
ton IN very effective way.
There is no doubt that as a result
of his work many teachers will
go back to their work better pre-
pared to meet the problems of
their districts. DR.. Howerth,
who is associate professor of
Sociology in the University of
Chicago, has lectured before
three institutes of Idaho on his
western trip, and in each case
has come away with the approval
of his hearers.
Mr.. Nelson, who is giving in
structiom in music and drawing,
is now supervisor of drawing and
music at Payette and Caldwell.
For seven years before coming
to Idaho he held the same posi-
ton in the schools of Sandusky
and Newark, Ohio. His work in
the institute being adapted to the
needs Of the teachers will result
IN much good to the schools of
the county.
Mrs. Curtis is appearing sec
ond time before the teachers of
Idaho county because of the good
and helpful work she gave in
her first institute here. In her
lectures she is dealing with
primary reading phonics and
elementary literature.
About one-hundred-fifty teach
ers are present from the two
counties, ninety-five being from
Idaho county, and the remainder
from Lewis county. All are pres
emit from Lewis county, except
one on account of illness, and
Nil from Idaho county except
three who live in such far away
