WORK ALL COUNTS

business men in Kansas City who were
kicked out of high schools because
they did not get the answers to the re-
quired number of problems. Teachers
are concerned too much with answers
and not, enough with the method of
getting the answer.
Professor Drake spoke on the Per
sonal Side of craftsmanship" and
pointed out many interesting facts on
this somewhat intangible problem.
THE students efficiency depends
upon the amount of supervision neceS-
sary. The trouble is that we do. too
much of our work twice in order to
overcome our negative personality.
When you add a column of figures in
correctly and then add it again to cor
rect the answer you are correcting the
result but not the cause.
IF it takes nine-tenths of a mans
energy to supervise his own mind, how
much can he do with the other mans
mind? This is a big factor in sales
manship. One does not have to Guilt
vate inefficiency. 1t just springs up
student does have to cultivate is the
positive side"
In her paper this morning Miss Sui
Ivan, the president of the association,
stated that the school should develop
the personal qualities needed for sue
ceSSful participation in business.
1.-The training should be concrete,
showing the relation between the per-
success in business she said.
1.-The great end of all instruction is
not to stamp our minds on the young,
but to stir their own, to quicken and
strengthen the power of thought, not
TO burden the memory with useless
matter. Mr.. James B. Forgan, a bank
er of Chicago, when he announced his
retirement from the presidency of the
First National bank, said that he owed
whatever success he had to hard work
and conscientious performance of his
duty, that he always prepared himself
for the first opportunity of advance
ment."
Cooperation Necessary.
Cooperation between the business
man and the commercial school was
the paramount question before the
ninth annual convention of the Mis-
souri, Valley Teachers association.
which opened in Representative hall

teachers some insight as to what the
layman expects to get when he hires a
graduate of a business college.
1t was estimated today that 300
teachers from five states-Kansas.
Missouri Nebraska, Oklahoma and
Iowa-would attend the convention.
The program this morning included

SO-We have an idea as to why the women
on the farm are dissatisfied.
Why can't the farmer make money on the
farm?
Because he is the best bet ever when it
comes to listening to the golden voiced candi-
date for political office, who promises him
every protection, every advantage, and every
known mode Of legislation to lower the cost
of the things he needs, and raise the price Of
the things he can take to market
Because, he has let other people do his
thinking for him so long, his brain has rusted
and he can't see how to calculate beyond the
need Of so many bushels of seed for so many
acres of land.
Because he has placed ahead Of himself, his
wife and his children, the needs and the de
mands of every one else, and because he mas
lost sight of the dignity Of his calling, the
absolute balance of power he would hold, if
he would wake to the fact, and the value Of
holding together, as the big trusts do, the
product of his own, and the farms Of those in
his locality.
This past year has witnessed the greatest
Juggling with the farmer. that has ever been
witnessed since this country became Nation.
He has had to sell, to pay his taxes with, the
things he and his family needed to ike on,
and he has had to sell at the lowest price. lie
has had to buy, and pay the highest prices for
the things he could not raise, or did not have
the forethought to plan for raising,
The farmer breaks his heart and his stock,
going over bad roads to his nearby town. and
he takes this as philosophically, year after
year, as he does the rain, the drought and The
hail-storms; it doesn't seem to occur to him
Giro O+h i
be possible for him to get statement as to
where the money he paid as taxes for good
roads, went to, though he has visible evidence
that none of it has gone into the road through
his property.
And some day, the farmer is going to wake
up. Maybe it won't be until this fool govern,
ment has flooded the South and West with
more cheap labor, religious gift farms, such
as those proposed now for the Begians, and
when he makes, good and wde he may make
a rule or two for himself that will keep his
children on the farm, make his wife happy,
and incidentally make his own worth an
acknowledged factor in the scheme Of things
in his locality.

A number of residents of West
