Cannot BE Held-Those Who
Paid Fees Stand Loss

SALEM, Ore, July 15.-The su-
preme court held that John Coffey,
clerk of Multnomah county, is not
liable or responsible for over $15,-
600 in court fees which his prede-
cessor Frank Fields, failed to turn
over to him. The case was brought
before the courts on a suit for man
damus. The court held those who
paid the fees will have to stand the
loss pending a possible settlement of
the affairs of the bank in which
Fields had the funds deposited when
the institution failed.

Bar The Fit From College

suspect we are likely to underesti-
mate the number of naturally fit men,
row barred ont of college by the ira
ditional requirements, who could readily
enough prepare themselves to enter with
quite as promising an equipment as that
possessed by the regular high school cand-
idates. They are to be found in every
walk of life. Some are on farms, many
are teaching rural schools, others are
rlcrking in banks and commercial Offices
or working at trades. These promising
men should not merely be welcomed.
They should be sought out. All colleges
and especially those connected with state
universities should bear torches in the
search. 1t is a phase of conservation
which transcends in Importance the con
scrvation Of the forests, the water powers
end the coal Why should there not be
state surveys for this higher object,
something after the plan proposed by
jefferson for the discovery of gcniuses
in Virginia?
Not all naturally brilliant youth will
desire to enter the professions, and this
is WE'LL for they are needed in the other
walks of life and will ever be found in
goodiy numbers, as now, in business, in
the trades, on the farms. Those prefer
ring these occupations ought to prepare
for them Il II" vocational schools or in
other eftectua ways. The college course
would he open to them for the purpose,
hut they would be expected to pursue it
under the severe intellectual regimen pre-
scribed for those looking forward to the
professions. -- Joseph Schafcr in the
American Review of Reviews.

Poultry Enthusiast Puts
Purpose In A School

I'm order to show what club can do
in small school a particular ease in
very small Western country school will 4
be cited. A poultry enthusiast who lived 4
close to a small school, which was taught
by "A city girl, was much interested in its
srrcess. He believed that agriculture
in some branch should be placed on a
respectable footing in every school.
One evening six of the oldest children /
aere invited to his home, accompanied .
by the teacher. They all had a iol.::
time and ended the fun by agreeing to
Duild a poultry house in the schooyard,
provided the farmer would furnish the
lumber and superntend the work. Since
three of this small crowd we're girls, the
boys did all the work, and placed the
house in the front schoolyard, not far
from the schooroom door.
When the house was built each child
brought IA hen from home and placed it
in the house. Each took turns feeding
and keeping records for week. At the
end of six weeks the children became
Jealous of each other s ability to feed
hens and so they suggested holding an
egg laying contest at their several homes.
This seemed agreeable and club was
formed. Each member was to select six
hens from the home flock and feed them
for one month as he or she desired, max
ing reports of all income and expense.
I,,, ,,,.I b, IN h,
community became interested. The town
ship trustee and the county superinten
dent looked in that direction and wonder
ed what was going on. All the children
came to school every day, for they dared
not miss anything during such exciting
times. Prizes had been offered to the
! winners, and reports of the work had to
be written and handed in to the teacher.
a The final day was a great one, and that
e night all the neighborhood was to come
5 out. The schoolhouse had no lights, 50
n the farmers brought lamps and lanterns
}. and lit up the room in great shape. The
h and speeches were given by an agricult
i ural instructor and by local men. The
c township trustee and the county super
d intendent both visited the school on thai
day. How proud the children were OF
g their school!
IS The club members had learned readn.
,e when they studied methods of feedins
IS hens, they learned mathematics when the'
n figured profit or loss, and composition
and writing were both necessary in tn
,e preparation of the reports. Thus the con
IN test fulfilled some of the requirement. o
= the school curriculum.
e, What is the object of education? Gen
tainly it must be to teach the child ho'
in to be valuable man or woman. Thes
children learned what dry studies neve
N. teach, and the respect for education ths
w they acquired caused them to look f0rWar
ee to college careers with the hore OF d,
N. yeloping into successful farmers I'll
n teacher was taken at the end of the ten
70, at almost twice the salary, because s.
ne had become a better instructor. Ame
tie lean schools need more of this kind
education; it bring results. Chiidrc
in should be educated with interesting al
zee concrete things, aud be shown hoy lra
ed tical and valuable school work IAN
