DROWNING ACCIDENTS.

One of the most distressing aspects
of the summer season is the number of
drowning accidents. Every mornings
paper through the warn weather brings
a catalog of deaths, drowned while
bathing All through the week, from
the surf bathing beach, to the village
swimming hole, there is one long story
of sorrow and death. Overturned
O and row and sail boats contribute
a heavy toll.
And the parent does not secure safety
for his youngsters by teaching them
how to swim. That may encourage
them to go far out into deep water,
without friends to accompany them,
taking chances of sudden attacks of
cramps and chills.
Certainly every boy and girl ought
to learn to swim. With a little pains
and effort, this can be arranged almost
anywhere. Also let them know how
many accidents are all the time hap
pening from a too venturesome spirit.
Young people should not be permitted
to use canoes and boats until they have
learned to quit fooling on the water. -

association of Winnsboro, Texas, har-
vested their 1912 sweet-potato crop they
found as many other growers have
found, before, that all the marketing
centers were overstocked with potatoes,
and so cents per bushel was the best
price that reliable commission houses
would offer, despite the fact that pota-
toes were then retailing at from 81 to
SO per bushel in these same cities.
Fortunately, however, this associa-
ton had an enterprising manager who
decided to quit the beaten track and
place the potatoes of his growers di-
rectly into the hands of the consumer.
"Some hundred miles to the west of
Winnsboro lies the great 'black-land
belt of Texas, which is ideally adapted
to cotton-growing, but this black soil
will not grow potatoes. The manager
decided to market his potatoes there il
he could only get in touch with the
demand. After careful consideration
he sent a man directly into this terri
tory to locate the demand. When {
likely-looking district was found this
representative of the truck growers
would book advance orders for pota
toes, and when enough were secured t.
insure the disposal of a carload tn
information was communicated to tn
home office and a car was prompt,
loaded and sent out. Then when tn
car arrived at it's destination the pc
tatoes were delivered direct from tn
car door to the buyers"

WORK OF RURAL SCHOOLS.

C. H. Wiley, superintendent of the
school union district comprising the
towns of Bristol, Lincoln and Monkton,
New Haven and Starksboro, includes
the following in his annual report;
The number of visits made by the
superintendent this year is $40. In
each town of the Union, ~stereopticon
pictures were exhibited. There will
probably be a new set of pictures to
exhibit next year. If there is a
sufficient demand, | shall be pleased to
show them in village or rural school
rooms.
There should be in each school room an
extra table and one or two extra chairs.
| have noticed a disposition for people
to wait until after shool was finished
before telling me of things that need
correction. | prefer to know these
things early enough to correct them if
possible.
Reading is still to be thought of as
the most important work in the school
where books are concerned. Since |
came into this field, primary readers
have undergone a revolution. The old
word-by-word method has been laid
aside and books with real stories from
the start have replaced them. Rea
literature is now used; such as is suited
to the age and power of the beginner.
Poems by Stevenson, Field and others
are taught. 1t is almost uncanny to
see how quickly a class of beginners,
hardly more than babies. can distinguish
the excellence of real poetry. This
power should be developed early and
continually strengthened. BY misuse
it can be lost. You will do we'll to pro-
vide many different texts for the
early grades. There should be no limit,
except that set by dire necessity, upon
the material furnished for beginners.
Once more, | urge a wider use of
school houses. The expense, even in
the winter time, is not great. The
school room is practically the only hal
within reach in many communities.
Any reasonable appeal, whether social,
literary, musical, political or religious
should have a generous response in the
neighborhood. Old and young SHOULD
meet often together in the school house
with the school children and establish
anew the old habit of s|ociability.
A school is not a thing apart from
the community. Schools should com
into community life and the community
life should come into the schools. Theil
aims, interests and ideals are or shoulC
be identical. Schools should interes'
themselves in the activities of the com
munities in which they are placed. 4
school should not be an artificial thing
nor an abstract thing but a bit of home
life in the best sense of that term
useful and practical.
