REGISTERS.
All teachers must fill out their
daily registers. Register must
show attendance, promotion and
record of work Of each pupil for
each month during the term.
The last voucher will not be
approved until registers and
reports are filed with me.
Examinations.
Again | state, that no sub
ject should be completed, until it
has been thoroughly reviewed,
until written tests have been
held and a final examination has
proven the child's thoroughness.
A Comparison.
Tie property Of the State
penitentiaries OF Texas are val
ued at $3,653,722. The county
school houses for &C., % child
rem are valued at s., 6O6,61 In
many counties the county Jail
costs more than every school
house in the county.
Poor Schools.
Poor schools are expensive in
the waste of child life. A poor
teacher is over paid at $1.OO per
month. 1t is time that counts
in the life of the child.
School Exhibit.
There will be a farm exhibit
next fall by the farmers of Ma
rion county. Will not the tea
cheers of Marion county aid me
by preparing school work, so
that there can be an attractive
booth, showing the work done
by the pupils of the county?
Writing papers, drawing, sew
ing, booklets, construction work,
cooked food could be placed on
exhibit. Our rural schools are
doing fine work. Let the people
know it. Phone or write for
particulars.
OFT Repeated Thoughts.
The hands Of boys and girls
should be trained as we'll as the
brain.
The heart of the moral nature
should receive more careful
training than either hand or head
No pupil is rightly educated
who is not made honorable by
training and made useful by be-
ing taught to do some useful
work. Domestic science and
manual training educates head,
heart and hand.
The Recitation.
Is the teacher talking too
much and consequently teaching
too little? Telling kills both
time and study. Explaining,
even, is easily overdone. 49,
Are your pupils reciting du
ring the class period or are you?
If your pupils are merely listen
ing, they are not studying, no
matter how much you are study
ing, or how well you are reciting
for them. Time yourself and
pupils for few days and see
whether you or they are rceiting
and how much.
The teachers talking is a cost
ly substitute for the pupils
studying.-S. Magazine.

ODIOUS SYSTEM ENDED.
Ohio Aboishes the Letting Out of Con-
vict Labor to Contractors.

Ohio AboIishes the Letting Out of Con-
vict Labor to Contractors.
Ohio is now in the advanced column
of states which have wiped out the
odious system of letting out the labor
of conyicts in state prisons to con-
tractors. The last contract for prison
labor in that state expired April 20,
and there will be no more. This is the
first time for over half century that
this condition has obtained in the great
and progressive Buckeye common
wealth, and its people rejoice greatly
that the shameful blot upon humanity
and the fair name of their state has
been removed.
Some Of the prisoners in the Ohio
penitentiary will hereafter be employ
ed for a time in remodeling the prison
and others in the state shops where
socks, underwear and soap are manu-
featured. As the need arises other EN-
ployment will be found for them in the
service of the state instead of permit
ting their use to swell the enormous
profits Of prison labor contractors.
Good for Ohio. Let us hope the other
states which still have this system will
soon follow her excellent example

Cardinal Gibbons Strongly Endorses
Federal Commission.
Following in the wake of the favor
able action of such bodies as the New
York state chamber Of commerce, the
American Federation of Labor and the
National Civic federation, President
Tafts recommendation for federal
commission on industrial relations,
which is embodied in the Hughes-Bo-
rah bill. pending in congress, has re-
ceived the support Of the federal coun-
ell of the churches of Christ in Amer
lea and of many influential rabbis.
The proposed examination OF our
laws bearing upon the relation of en-
ployer and employee" and of the gen
eraI conditions of labor in our princi-
pal industries" to use President Taft's
words, also appeals strongly to Cardi-
nal Gibbons.
81 am greatly interested in the pro-
posal to create a federal commission on
industrial relations" said his eminence
Cardinal Gibbons recently in reply to
a question Il earnestly hope that the
congress may ind 1t possible TO act Ia
vorably on the suggestion Of President
Taft that such a commission be ere
ated Industrial peace must be made
relatively secure justice to both capital
and labor ought to be assured at least
substantially and confidence ought to
be restored between our social classes.
Thoroughgoing knowledge Of the facts
in our industrial situation is absolutely
necessary to these ends Only fed

Cautic task of this kind with any prom

asking congress to create the commits

enter the finals to be held two weeks
later.
Registration closed with about six

ABOUT LORDS CAFE.

A statement from the proprietors Of
Lords cafe, which appeared recently
would make it appear that they had
been cruelty wronged by the unions.
The statement was to the effect that
they had a contract with the French
laundry and because they would not
break it and send their laundry to a
fair concern, they We're placed Gun,
fair 10y the Trades council, and for no
other cause.
The officers of the Cooks and Wait
ers union wish to state that such was
not the case. The French laundry
proposition was a secondary considera-
ton. The business agent states that
he made several trips to the house in
an effort to get it signed up to an
agreement to employ union help, with
out which they were not entitled to the
windowcard. lie states that they had
experienced great difficulty in keeping
the house uuionizol and that the house
card was removed and the house placed
unfair" because of repeated failures
to unionize it, and reach an agreement.
The French laundry incident was an
agerayation, but not the cause of the
house going unfair"
He stated in an interview with the
Journal that all the proprietors had
to do to get right with organized labor
was to sign up for the house card and
agree to hire union help.
