ON LONDON
BY REV. R. S. POVEY
Speaks of Social Unrest In Eng
land-DeScribes Metropolis
at Length

Although it rained hard last night
at the hour announced for the first
lecture in a course of four to be given
at Trinity NJ e. Church on the Tues
day evenings of January by the pas
tor Of the church, Rev. r. s. Povey,
a good crowd assembled, nevertheless,
for the evenings entertainment.
Old Fleet street and ST. PauPS Ca
thedral, Westminster Abbey, and that
part of London which comprises the
old London landmarks such as Lon
don Bridge, the Monument and the
rover received considerable attention
from the speaker. The noble and i'm
posing memorials OF London, such as
Lord Nelson's monument in Trafalgar
Square, the Queen Victoria Memoir
ial, the Albert Memorial and the well
known Monument built by Wren in
1866 to commemorate the great fire OF
London, were all sp1endfdly described.
Mr.. Povey said that the growth and
development Of the city of London in
every department of life and activity
1zed world A population of nearly
1000, 900 of people makes up London's
great problem.
The lecturer spoke as follows of the
social unrest in London and in Eng
land generally: There is a wave Of
social righteousness sweeping over
this country. The curse of landlord
ism rests upon England, and the work
ing men who unselfish1y, have help
ed to make possible the great material
come when they should have share
IN the vast wealth of the nation
Every day the Haunting of wealth in
the eyes of the poor and hard pressed
only intensifies the feeling of anger
Which 50 many thousands Of the hum
bier poor experience. The cry of dem
ocracy is in the air.
King Edward VII could, probably,
foreSee the coming social unrest when
he said: My son, George v, will
resign but my grandson will never
reign"
Miss Dorothy Beach and Miss Clara
Mix furnished music for the evening,
which was very greatly enjoyed.

From the foregoing list the number
of graduates equals five hundred and
ten or an average of practically fifteen
students per year, which is very good
considering that in the year 1883 the
course was changed to more complete
course of four years, consequently there
was no graduating class that year
There have been 1877 boys graduated
and 1923 girls, which shows "A majority
in favor of the girls of 1876. The small

Music and the Mineral Point
SchoolS

After his visit here as patriotic in
structor, w. H. Rood gave Mineral
Point very interesting write up i'll his
Grand Army corner in The Madison
Democrat. Here is an extract
There We're twelve or fourteen pieces
in the orchestra-seven violins. l can
say for their music all that l have said
about that of the band-more, too, per
haps. 1t was excellent.
1t is a great thing to have such mu
sicians in school. The music is not on
iy entertaining and inspiring, but the
training for it educative. And then, as
Professor Loveland told me, the having
OF such organizations as the orchestra
and band helps hold the school together,
especially the big boys; and it gives
somewhat of both spirit and refinement
to the school environment. Happy is
the school that has within itself re
sources so helpful and blessed is the
teacher who is able and gladly willing
to develop them and make use of them
in the development of character.
From what | saw that day, and from
what 1 heard people say, the Mineral
Point schools must be in excellent CON
dition. Professor Loveland has long
been successful high school man in
Wisconsin. In thanking the Grand
Army men and Relief Corps for their
visits, he assured them that it was his
conviction and that of his teachers that
our schools should undertake to train
not only the mental faculties of the
pupils but their moral nature and pa
triotic sentiments of home and
