He would and did try to lead in ey-

social function and step on every la

question from the declaration of indie
pendence to Resolved, That the pen
is mightier than the sword
He would lead in prayer, lead a
prayer meeting or lead a fight with the
same enthusiasm.
He did not break the association up
but he broke every rule, made and un
made. But at heart he loved Jesus

The population of this world is di-
yided into two classes--those who have

faction.
The "Old Field School, on Friday
afternoons, Resolved, That there is
more pleasure in pursuit than in pos
session" The stock Illustration OF tho
affirmative was the chase after the rab-
bit, and it was insisted that the fun
was all over when the rabbit was
caught. The negative used for illus
traticn courtship and marriage ana
asserted that it is more pleasant to
possess a wife than pursue a sweet
heart
Relative or comparative pleasure,
with chase and rabbit, sweethearting
and wife, no one would be so foolish as
to deny; but is permanent, unyarying
satisfaction probable?
The desire for satisfaction in food and
drink gives activity to the markets of
the world, and sends people to their
knees in supplication for daily bread;
but permanent satisfaction is impossi-

tenance would suffice for lifetime

Teaching Material in Government Publications

The hidden wealth in Government
publications, especially as it affects
teachers, is described by Frederick K
Noyes in bulletin just issued by the
United States Bureau OF Education.
MIR. Noyes has delyed, as he says, into
the vast stores of teaching material
that lie embedded in Government doc
uments, many of which give no indica-
tions. from their titles, of their value
for educational purposes" and has
furnished a guide to a small portion Of
that part of this material which has
special significance for teachers or
others interested in education.
Tons and tons of reports, bulletins.
and miscellaneous documents are
turned out daily by the immense print
ing plant of the Government. Congress
and the Congressional committees are
constantly having documents of car
ious kinds printed for general distri-
button. Every Department and every
bureau in the Department has its own
publications, frequently amounting to
millions of copies annually for each
office The bulletin just published y,
the Bureau of Education aims to list a
small part of the large amount of this
material which may be of direct use TO
teachers, especially material from I'M
expected sources, the special value of
