UNCLE TED'S
CIRCLE

Here is an essay that will be good for grownups
as well as children to read. It is a heart-to-heart
appeal from a 13-year-old country boy, asking for
more kindness in the schools. This boy declares
that pupils will give their teacher more attention
and respect If they are treated like equals"
The boy does not want his name printed, for OBJ
vious reasons.
However, the appeal in his essay is so good that I
have awarded him the dollar prize for the best essay
of the week. UNCLE TED.
MY TEACHER
Teachers in our public schools today are changing.
They are no longer the radical bosses of Young
America, but are beginning to treat their pupils
with respect and justice. 1t seems that a small rev.
olution in the ways Of school teaching has occurred.
This is true in the country schools at least. I
have gone to school in the country all my life, and do
not know about the cities, but 1 know that the day
of the rod and switch in the country school has given
place to the day of kindness and respect.
My teacher is a man. He is a big, jolly, good ma
tured man. OF course, he is strict, but he treats us
boys like equals and we respect him enough to live
up to the rules of school. Teachers a short time ago
were rough and mean. There was always a switch
or a stick somewhere in the room, and hardly a day
passed but that we were whipped.
I think the teachers will get much better work
from the boys and girls by treating them like equals
and not trying to bully them.

Apache County Items
(From the Herald -News)

We understand that one or two
of our local business men are pre-
pairing for a brisk trade in Ginger
during the coming winter.
According to a recent estimate
there are just four thousand and
seventeen dogs in St. Johns which
join in the nightly concerts these
figures are not official however.
You might look on the Tax Roll
and see how much Montgomery
Ward and Sears, Roebuck and
company are paying to keep up
the county, and then spend your
money accordingly.
Who said Apache County
couldn't do it? Have the knock
ers' anything to say about it now?
For the first time in the history
of the County, perhaps, Apache
had an exhibit at the State Fair.
No effort was made to secure the
various specimens until about two
weeks before the opening of the
fair. Crop conditions have been
decidedly unfavorable for the
past season. No effort was made
to get an exhibit. Still, in view
of that, our exhibitors brought
back a bunch of twenty blue,
white and red ribbons and sever
al different pieces of prze money.
What could have been done had
any preparation been made? Our
people have never taken enough
interest in such matter, but it is
hoped that the showing made by
the exhibits placed by Mr.. Joseph
Udall, who represented the Coun-
ty at the State Fair will awaken
the farmers and others to the
possibilities, and that prepara-
tions will be made for such a dis
play that no one can doubt, next
year, that Ahache is the best
county in the best state Of the
Union.

One of the professors of our
leading educational institution,

the streets alone and unprotect-
