perience in handling the incorrigible
child and he has arrived at tho con-
clusion that the bad boy is not made
good by rules and regulations which
says he must be good. He deprecates
the practice of arresting the small
malfactors as it tends to make tho boy
feel he has done something to be proud
Of when the Law takes notice Of him.
MIR. Riis says there is but one solution
of the problem and that is that people
must study the boy and learn the i'm
pulses that direct him. Treat the
causes and let the symptoms alone. He
scorns the idea that boy must be bad
because his parents were bad but he
says boy can't be good if his environ.
ments are wholly evil. He spoke in
terestingly Of his many experiences with
the boys of all over this country and
made the point that boy
will be all right if we allow him free
expression for the life that is bubbling
'ver in him instead Of REFRESHING his |
natural impulses, and give him en-
ironments that will uplft him without
preaching at him.

til with the idea of bringing the
North and the South into . closer
rels tionship that the day has been set
aside. A few years ago the people Of
the Northern section talked sepsra-
ton, the making oftwo States out Of
the present Minnesota because they
felt that the residents of Southern
Minnesota were unfair in their treat
ment OF Northern Minnesota. This
talk has quite generally died out but
it is desirable that closer bond be
tsblished and that sectional feelings
be lost in the wider love Of State, and
that all come to realize that We are
brothers and should hold the welfare
OF our State in common.
The Department of Public Instruc.
ton at st. Paul has sent out to the
County Superintendent q pamphlet
giving much interesting Information
about Minnesota together with sug-
gestions for the correct observance Of
the day in the public schools. One
suggestion made is that the names of
the counties be studied for their
origin and as an aid to our many
subscribers in the teaching profession
we reprint the following article from
the St. Paul Pioneer Press, which
gives in detail the history of county
names together with much interesting
general information.
"The names of the counties of Min

Jail officials are anxious.
What's it all about? Why, a man
condemned to expiate the crime of
murder is in failing condition. Rev.
Clarence Richeson is becoming weaker
daily and may GOT survive to be exc

fairly thirst for his blood, and every
effort will be made to preserve his life
1ntil they get his blood according to

This Rev. Richeson is the vilest
criminal the prisons have held for
long time. Why should society be
eager to dirty its hands with him?
Why give him the finest food and the
3est of medical care?
Z Not long ago, this vile murderer
attempted to kill himself, after con.
tossing his guilt. Will some one
present some good reason why he
wasn't permitted to succeed? Will
some one now present good reason

attitude toward him simply indicative
