TEACHER GIVES CREDITS
FOR WORK DONE At HOME
Novel Method Employed in a
Wisconsin School Is
Successful.

In the November Woman's Home
Companion appear accounts of sew
eral public schools in the United
States where great progress is be-
ing made. One of the stories told
is the story of Wisconsin public
school teacher who gives his pupils
school credits for home work. Fol-
lowing is an account of this teacher
and his plan:
There is country school in
Manitowoc county, Wis.,. where the
teacher, Mr.. II. +. Antholz, has in
troduced thoroughly original and
practical course in manual training
and personal responsibility. Mr.
Antholz gives school credits for
home work That is, the children
do chores at home and get credit
for them at school. Each child has
small memorandum book in which
he writes a list of the home duties
he performs, between 4 p. m. and ,
a. M, and the number of credit
points received for each. This list,
which is kept on honor, includes
sweeping. making bed, preparing
meal, baking cake, baking
bread. scrubbing the floor, washing
and wiping dishes, milking, feeding
horses. cleaning the barn, cleaning
and currying horses, splitting and
carrying wood, sleeping with open
window, cleaning the teeth, coming
home with feet dry in wet weather.
AT the end of each month the
names of the three pupils who have
! the best records, with number of
points each received. are published
in the local papers. AT the end of
the year the three pupils holding
the highest number of credits in
each class are awarded prizes by the
school board.
This scheme proved successful
from the beginning. Nearly all OF
the pupils entered the contest at
once and the rest entered a little
later. Not one dropped out.
Zone farmer told Mr.. Antholz:
Before you started the credit sys-
tenn couldn't get my boy out OF
bed in the morning to do any
chores. Since then he is in the

A GLIMPSE OF LIFE IN
A AEATHEN COUNTRY
How Old Chinese Scholar Found
All He Needed In Book
OF John.

Over in a distant province OF
North China there is man who
knows no church, no ordinance, no
fellowship, no teacher save Jesus.
His one book is the marvellous Book
of John, but in this he has found
the simplest and the profoun1est
truths, and he wants no other.
Mr.. Edgar l.. Morgan. mission
airy, writing from Laichow flu, North
China, tells the story and it is worth
retelling:
Forty miles east of LaichOw fu,
in village infrequently visited by
preachers. an evangelist, Mr.. Lin.
discovered one he described as the
most remarkable man he has met in
his six years of work BY some
means about five years ago this old
man, now beyond sixty. had secured
a large print of the gospel of John.
To a Christian messenger he said,
81 know that Jesus came down from
God, | have the book that telAs OF
Him-Yoa-Han Fu-yin (John's Good
News). / read it constantly, but
says that ! do not understand. Can
you tell me, sir, what He means
when He says, i am in the Father
and the Father is in Me?'' On be-
ing answered he asked, What was
the name of the pool to which Jesus
sent the blind mani have forgot
tenn" This and other things Mr..
Lin patiently hunted out, explained
and discussed.
Such a knowledge of the book
and its meaning, heretofore hidden
from him, amazed the old searcher
for truth. How, sir, do you know
these things?" he asked. every
chapter and verse and just where
they are and just what they mean?
How long have you been acquainted
with the book?'
Mr.. Lin then told him of his own
ten years experience, and asked If
in his reading he had found the
flavor" of this book different from
that of the classics. Sir. | read no
more of the books of this world,
he replied. 'My whole leisure time
is spent on this one"
He was told that there are other
sacred writings. John was only zone
of many. and that some of the 9TH
ers would be sent to him. He said,
THANK you, you need not trouble to
do that. do not care for any 9th
ers: this flavor is excellent. / read
this constantly, and ten parts (per-
fectly) believe in Jesus. You need
not exhort me to trust in Him. For
nearly five years | have read about
Him in this book and | want moth

Mr.. Lin then taught him to pray,
and urged him to visit and become
acquainted with the bodies of be-
levers near him, with whom he
might have fellowship. I'VE have
sent him a complete large print New
Testament" writes Mr.. Morgan
"and have invited him to visit US al

MOsBY FAILED TO CAPTURE
Supply Train of Gen. Phil.
Sheridan. Baking His
Usual Custom.
AN ATTACK BAD As BULLETS

Colonel John S. Mosby, comman-
der of the Partisan Rangers, who
gave such dashing service in the
Southern cause 80 years ago, is liv-
ing now in the city of Washington.
One of the really amusing incidents
that passed under his notice dur
ing the war he told not long ago
In the summer of 1864, when
General Phil Sheridan was in the
valley of the Shenandoah, he found
himself much harassed by Mosby,
who was continually cutting off his
supply trains. An army cannot hght
on an empty stomach, and Mosby
knew it. He also knew how. with
his small force, TO neutralize the
strength of an army more than hve
times his number, for by rushing
from point to point and making sud
den attacks miles apart, he kept a
large proportion of the Union troops
in constant chase of him.
One bright morning Mosby heard
that long supply train was wind
ing its way down the valley. BY
noon the Rangers, in their gray uni
forms, were gathered at the forks
of the valley pike, watching for the
head of the wagon train to appear.
Presently a cloud of dust was
seen rising far up the road, and, as
the wind blew it aside, the Confed-
crates caught sight of line of men
in blue escorting a caravan of lum-
boring wagons drawn by mules. In
stantly Mosby gave the order to run
a little howitzer up on the side of a
hill and unlmber it. AS soon MS the
gun had opened fire the rest of the
men were to make a cavalry charge
and throw the train in confusion.
The Rangers jerked the gun into
position and began to swab II out.
Suddenly the man with the swab
gave shrill yell, seized the seat OF
his paptaloons. and fled down the
hill and out into the road. Almost
the same moment the other man at
the gun abandoned 1T. He seemed
to be fighting at the air as he dis
appeared over stone wall.
The suffers wagons were creep
ing nearer, and Mosby did not know
what to think of such extraordinary
conduct. He ordered four more
men to the gun, but hardly had they
reached it when they, too, yelled
began TO beat the air madly with
their hats, and took TO fight.
Squirting his horse over the wall
Mosby rode toward the gun, but his
stay was short. The 'howitzer stood
Just over a. hornets nest, and those
busy insects were resenting the in
trusion. They had repealed the in
vaders on foot, and now they
swarmed on Mosby's horse till the
maddened animal tore off down the
pike on a run. Then they turned
their attention to the rest of the
troop.
Their attack was So vicious that
the Rangers gave up any idea OF
standing by the gun. They scatter
ed far and wide. and IL was an hour
before they returned. When they
did, the wagon train had safely van
ished in the distance. So the hor.
nets saved the day for Sheridan
youths Companion.

But Is Greatest Industry
In America.
GENERAL FARMING BUSINESS
Goes Along Rather Slowly For
Lack of the Proper
Organization.
ANTICIPATED METHODS USED

Immense fortunes have been made
out of every great industry or bust
ness in America except one. Steel
made Carnegie, Frick, Gates and
scores of other men many times
millionaire. Oil made Rockefeller,
Rogers, Flagler and that unmatch-
able coterie. Banking made Nor
gan, Drexel. Schiff and Stotesbury.
Street railways made Widener,
Elkins, Ryan and Dolan. Tobacco
made Duke, Brady, Garrett and
many others. Railroads gave us
Hartman. Gould. Vanderbilt, Hunt
ington, Packer, Scott and an army
of men who were immensely rich.
Anthracite coal has its company
of barons, including Pardee, Markle,
Coke and Conyngham, while btu
minous coal made such men as
Stephen B. Elkins, Davis and Ber-
wind. Powder gave du Points to the
world with all their millions.
Newspaper and magazine owners.
merchants. lumbermen, brokers.
builders and hotel proprietUrs, all
have furnished not one but many
very rich men.
But the greatest of all Industries
i'm America is farming, and who
can name a man who has taken ten
millions from the soil? Many
more people are engaged in agri-
culture than in any other industry,
but where are the milliOnaires?
You can name a long list of chief
tains-captains of industry-in
every other trade or business. and
yet the biggest of them all produces
not one. Queer, isn't it?
For everything there is reason
and there is good one for this
astonishing lack of millionaire
farmers. Here it is: Farming is
unorganized 1t remains to-day as
it was one hundred, even three
hundred years ago, an enterprise
of individuals.
There is no combine of farmers
and no trust. Every one is small
capitalist in himself. He joins
with no one else, he retains his in
dependence and he never loses his
| identity.
The farmer goes on to-day as
his great-grandfather went before
him-sowing everything except the
seeds of fortune and reaping
every crop except a million.
| have strong conviction, but
of course, it can be nothing more
tangible. that this condition will
not last. believe that some day
we shall see Rockefellers growing
corn. and Carnegies in the wheat
field.
A genius for consolidation will
rise up and he will amalgamate
two or three countries under his
own control. II will require cap
ital. but it also involved a billion
and half when United States Stee
was born.
The extraordinary thing is that i
has not been done before. We have
big farms, of course. Darymple il
known all over the land
Colonel James Young used to be
called the Farmer King of Pennsyl
vania. and his nine farms near Mid
dletown are still show places.
But compare these great farmers
with the leaders in all other form!
OF industry!
One can not tell. but perhaps thi!
very year some lad in one OF the ex
eeflent agricultural colleges viii
have planted in him the thought Of
doing on the farm what others have
done elsewhere-make lasting
name and few millions at the same
