cuses for not accomplishing the re-
suits
While he did not blame the schools
for this state of affairs he said that he
did claim that it was the business of
the schools to recognize conditions
as they existed and to go to work to
do all that was possible to better them.
Then he put 1t up to the teachera
that they had contracted to take some
thing like 1900 children and deliver
them a half year nearer to the goal of
an educated citizenship on Janu-
AIRY %, 1914.
Not all who cared to work but the
whole 1920 should be full half year
of their best effort under the best of
conditions farther along to the desired
goal
He then made a talk along the seven
heads: self surrender, enthusiasm, re-
sponsibiiity, vigilance. incentive, cour-
age, endurance. The initial letters
spelling Service the life work of
the teacher. He illustrated his idea OF
self surrender by story of two for
mer teachers, the one who did all he
could for the student and forgot him
self entirely and the other who could
do as much for the student and work
for himself at the same time. The
effect OF the life Of the former was
much greater in the lives of his pupils.
Enthusiasm results In preparation.
the most effective kind being that
preparation that fits itself to the In
dividual pupil. In this connection, he
called On the teachers to choose some
one thing that they proposed to do bet
ter than they had ever done 1t
before. While he left the teacher to
choose that subject he challenged
them to take the subject that they had
the most difficulty with. In this con
nection he offered this as his defini.
ticn of education or rather as one def
milton. Education is that which gives
one the power to overcome difficulties,
his idea being that only by actual ex
lpeTience in overcoming difficulties dc
we gain this power or really become
educated.
Under the head of responsibility he
urged the teachers to cultivate thf
habit OF responsibility among theii
pupils. This being one Of the chic
needs in overcoming the tendency O

cultivation Of that quality In the teach

ADDRESS BY ALDR1cH

An inspiring address delivered by
Superintendent William Aldrich was
the feature OF the annual preliminary
meeting of the teachers of the Keokuk
public schools held Saturday afternoon
at O'Clock at the high school. Practic-
ally all OF the teachers were present
at the meeting, which Is held annual
ly on the Saturday preceding the open
ing OF the schools. Matters of rou-
tine business were attended to, and for
the first time in several years printed
outlines OF the course of study in all
of the subjects taught in all of the,
grades were distributed to the teach
ers. The meeting was an enthusiastic
one and it was evident that during the
coming year the high standards of eff
cheney and effectiveness for which the
Keokuk schools are noted will be main

Keokuk Is fortunate in having COM
paratiyely few changes from year to
year in the teaching force of her
schools. This fall the changes are,
perhaps, slightly more numerous than
| is usual. In the high school, Miss
Nina Reck will take charge of the work
in commercial subjects. Miss Hannah
Baum will succeed Miss Sadie Marion
Becker in the department oil physical
geography and agriculture. Miss Alice
MCGOWAN will teach the extra seventh
grade in George Washington school
Miss Bertha Nelson and Miss Florence
school, while Miss Buena Newberry
and Miss Pansy Beckett will have
rooms in Terrence school Miss
Nina Phillips will go from the fifth
grade in George Washington school to
! the sixth in the same building while
! from the fifth grade at Lincoln to the

school In addition Miss Adele Foster
will take up her work at the head of
the department of domestic science,

Days and Feels Prapost-

Plans are being formulated for the
location in keokuk of large factory
for the manufacture of gas traction

out Saturday by B. w. Harris OF
Minneapolis, one of the men interest.
ed in the proposition who has been
here during the past few days lnves-
tlgating conditions relative to manu-
featuring problems.
Mr.. Harris will return to Mime
apolis with a favorable report. II his
associates are convinced by what he
tells them about Keokuk and the pos
sibilities here, steps will be taken i'm
mediately with view to having the
factory ready for spring business.
According to Mr.. Harris, who was
interviewed by a reporter Saturday,
1t is proposed to make Keokuk the
manufacturing and distributing point
for this new territory to be opened
up, comprising the states Of Iowa, I'LL
nois. Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska.
Regarding the proposition Mr.. Harris
said:
Great Engine for Farmer.
1--WE will manufacture traction
engine for farm motive power which
will do the work of five or six teashs.
It will have one tremendous advan-
tage over gas traction machines now
made in that we will make only the
smaller rig for price within reach
of every farmer. The engine will sell
at from $3.50 to $500.

There is nothing that more general
" engages the attention of all ages
and classes of people at certain per
iods than the shows known to all as
circuses. Every boy acquires a fairly
encyclopedia knowledge of the circus
and retains that information till he
reaches second boyhood. 1t is exceed

ed. The most peculiar feature of this
absurd idea is the absolute fact that
such thing has never been attempt
ed, by any show big or little, in the en-
tire history Of the show business in
America, or, SO far as is known, in any
other country Indeed, it would be just
as easy to take an ocean steamship in
the larbor Of New York and cut it up
into two or more parts and send each
of the parts to some port other than
the port either of the other parts go
to and then have these separate parts
unite in mid-ocean and proceed to Liv-
ferpool as one big steamship Such a
scheme would be quite as feasible as
the one OF dividing big shows. That
such an entirely baseless faliacy
should exist in a country peopIed by
persons OF any intelligence or common
sense is one Of the most mystifying
mental and physiological phenomena
ever developed Speaking In simple
truth neither the Robinson show or
any other show wants to divide, nor
could they if they wanted to- Divided
shows are simply a physical and man
agerial impossibility.
