Ny Summer Preparation.


Having attended summers schools
for number of years, l decided last
summer to make a change. Consider
ing the value Of travelling understand
ingly and with an educative purpose,
I planned to visit several places Of his
torical interest. Having Travelled but
little and knowing that it would add
to my store Of material knowledge,
made preparations for tie trip. Be
fore taking a trip one needs little
mental preparation A review Of his
tory and art, Of poets and men of let
ters, even though a nasty one, will give
an added interest, a deeper meaning,
and be an invaluable aid in the appre-
citation of each historic spot and every
work of art. The value Of travel to
the teacher who has never Travelled is
very important Considering the sub
ject from an educational standpoint
only, the influence is far-reaching and
lasting. This is my decision after hav-
ing visited Washington, Philadelphia
and New York.
In Washington the time was very
proftably spent visiting such places
as Mount Vernon, on the Potomac, Is
miles south of Washington; Alexan-
dria, eight miles from Washington,
which contains the historical build
ings CArist church, Carlyle house and
Marshall house. The capitol, the Ii
brary of congress, white house, the
treasury, Washington monument,
Smithsonian institution and National
museum, Pan-American building and
numerous other interesting places.
From Washington I went to New
York. This is much of city and is
worth mach to see it. The most in
teresting trip while there was the visit
to West Point, On the Hudson dis
tance of Is miles from New York city
The museums, art galleries and parks
were all interesting and were helpful
From New York On my way home
stopped for few days in the Quaker
City" This city contains many build
ings of historic interest, which have
been carefully preserved. Carpenters
hall, independence nall, Betsy Ross
house, old Christ church, in the ceme-
terry of which lies the body Of Benja-
min Franklin, Gloria Del church,
known as "Old swedes," and others
were visited. This trip took less time
than attending the summer school.
After short rest, I did some home
preparation for the next session. Per-
ception cards were made, also reading,
language and arithmetic charts. Songs.
stories and memory gems suitable for
each month were also selected. After
these preparations for the next term
there was still left a short time for
rest. Olive Feagle,

While we were driving the enemy
around a big house called C-ancellors-
Vile, it is said that Gen. Hooker was
standing on the portico when shell
from one of our guns struck column
near him, tearing it into splinters. II
that was so, | wonder yet how he es-
caped being killed. 1t was commonly
reported amongst US tat after the
s. ell exploded so near him he rushed
TO his horse and rode off at a break
neck speed to the river, perhaps far
ther with his coattails so straIg- out
behind him that you could lave played
marbles on them. The only thing now
q davs that reminds me Of Hooker's
ride. as he got out of our way, is
motor cycle, with daredevil fellow
on it trying to see now fast he can go.
Hooker got over some of his scare
when he got the river between him ana
those terrible Johnnie Rebs. Over
there he stopped and looked about to
see where lis men we're. Longstreet S
"Bull Dogs were hot on his trail, yelp-
ing every step. However, old Joe had
found pretty safe place on the other
side of Jordan''-not dead, but over the
rivnr-safe for a while.
We went down the river ana made
few barks at Sickles. Then it was TOO
dark to do much, and we left Off flg-t-
ing till next morning. When morning
came we could not find a Yankee
that is live one-anywhere. They
got away like a slick eel or creased
mouse. The "Bull Dogs" were a little
bit disappointed. Hooker had in that
fight $4,000 men. Lee had 10000
We killed, wounded and captured more
men than we Tad in the fight.
The battle of Charlottesville was
grand and glorious victory for the
South, but-my pen almost refuses to
record tit was there that brilliant
and dashing, yet quiet and reserved,
genius, stonewall Jackson, received
his death wound-at the Lands OF
friends. Certain North Carolina SOL
diers had been placed on a certain
picket line and told to fire upon any
one who might approach from the
front. During the night, it is thought,
Jackson and few of mis- aides forgot
or did not know, they were just where
they were-perhaps they were lost
while accommodating, approached too
near those North Carolina soldiers,
who b >lieved in doing what they were
ordered to do-and tie result was the
untimely and uncalled for death OF
Jackson.
Jackson was truly the fright hand
of Lee" and no one ever could take
his place and fill it. Wien he was snot
he tried to keep the army from fndlng
it out, but it soon was known all over
the army. When 1 heard it felt that
I had lost one as dear to me as some
blood relative. I had never made MS
personal acquaintance, but had seen
him several times.
1t has always been said that jack

so about his wife. But mere is an in

the top of the hill, and, praying God

The next day we were sent to a
place about two miles away, where our
men were falling back. We took a po-
sition near Salem church, where We
were opposed by the Yankees, who
came swiftly forward, cheering as they
came. Just at the right time, Long
streets "Bull Dogs" barked big and
loud, and you ought to have seen the
Yankees running. We could see moth
ing but blue backs, blue legs and sole
leather for some time. Just one big
wnoop and one volley did it all-and

Tie captured men told US they knew

fire and two roars united, that of bat
tie and that Of burning brush and logs.
I guess many wounded Yankee
burned to death that night.
One of our men saw a wounded Yam
kee, who was thought to be dead.
Thinking to take the fine pair of boots
off the dead Yankees feet, he attempt

Fur Markets pisoroanIzed.

The effect of the European war has
been felt in few channels more keenly
than in the market for furs. Before

Paris, Petrograd. and st. Louis, were
the world markets for fur distribution,
the largest part of the trade being car.
ried on in London and Leips!c. Since
the conflict began, the London market
has been the only one to conduct bust.
ness on large scale, and even here
the demand has diminished. In conse.
quence of prevailing conditions trap,
pers in Canada and the United States
are finding difficulty in getting a mar.
ket for their catch. Probably the
greatest sufferers are the Canadian
Indians. who have been notified by the
trading companies that the usual sup.
plies of food and ammunition will not
be advanced against their prospective
catches. Sea otter is the most valu.
able fur at present, with Russian sable
next. followed closely by silver fox.
although when the size of the skins
is taken into consideration the sable
is much the greatest in value. More
of the worlds fur supply comes from
the United States than from any other
country, with Canada a close second.
Then rank Russia and Australia.

cussion. There are 255 school officers

MexIco's superb cathedraI.

The Cathedral of Mexico was begun
In 1573 but so marshy was the land
that after so years of work, the wall
was only 200 feet above ground, al
though the Spaniards had used the
stones of the Aztec temple as their
foundation. Two hundred years were
necessary to complete the sacristy and
chapel for the cathedral is over 400
feet long; with height of 179 feet, not
counting tno tower, which measures
240 feet. It's magnificence of altar
furnishings, with lamp before the
sanctuary reputed to have cost $780,
600, glittering with jewels; it's dark
cream walls and IA chapels, suggest
that Croesus rather than Cortez was
the master builder. The architecture,
in the main, is of Gothic, with a lavish
use of Doric and Corinthian pilasters.
Here are buried the remains of Itur-
bide-the first emperor of Mexico, and
also the head of the good padre,
Hidalgo, who, in his own far away
province, first rung his church bell to
summon the people to overthrow
Spanish rule in Mexico. Not always
did this skull rest in the bosom of
the church, for when Hidalgo was
killed battling for liberty, the Span
iards hung his head on iron hooks,
still to be seen, on the prison walls
at Guanajuata.

EDINBURGH is always haunted
by ghosts, to those who have
read a little history, the novels
of Walter Scott and the min
strelsy of ole poets. says Philip
Gibbs In the London Graphic; but
when the king is there and old cere-
monies are revived in his honor, and
the spirit of the ancient chivalry Of
Scotland is lighted up by this royal
visit, the ghosts walk so that one can
hardly fail to meet them down by Holy
rood and round about the Grassmar-
ket and the Canongate.
Once again lights are flashing In
the windows of Holyrood itself, and.
wandering this way by night for a
stroll under the stars, ones mind
gropes back to the romantic, tragic
memories of this house of ghosts. One
woman's face peers out upon one
from the dark shadows. There behind
the walls are those little dark-paneled
rooms in which she sat smiling and
hiding her heartache, where men paid
homage to her and schemed her ruin,
where poets made sonnets to her
beauty and preachers scowled at her
laughter. There, still, Is the very
room, thronged on most days of the
year by loud-voiced tourists, where
she rose with her hands to her breast
at the clatter of feet up the stairways,
giving the shelter of her skirt to the
Italian clerk, Rizzio, until Darnley, her
husband, put his arms about her and
kept her still while Ruthven and Nor
ton and Ker of Fawdonside butchered
their man in the chamber beyond
There are other places in Edinburgh
where one is haunted by the spirit
of Mary Queen of Scots, whose beauty
bewitched the hearts of men less dour
than John Knox and more chivalrous
than Boutwell,.
But as the carriages pass through
the gates of Hollywood and highland
soldiers swing, their kits across the
courtyard, another figure, tall and
debonair, appears before ones minds
eye. One sees Prince Charles Edward,
who held his court here on his last
adventure for a crown, in AS. The
faults of the Stuarts were forgotten

Crushed by Modern Conditions.

or all the modern worlds strong
holds of machine-driven labor none
can compare with Belfast and Glasgow
to emphasize the truth of Ruskin's de
nunciation of modern industrialism
Ugliness and monotony are here the
keynotes of life-great barracklike
buildings, where the workers toll
eternally in their day and night shifts;
long rows of sordid cottages, smoke
begrimed and hideous, where, in their
long hours of ease, the men converge
upon the corner saloons as their chief
recreation and solace, while the wom-
en- pursue their truant offspring in all
manner of unsavory haunts. One of
the commonest and saddest sights of
Belfast's mean streets after work
hours Is street corner group of girls
from ten to twelve years of age, each
carrying her younger brother or sis
ter tightly fastened to her by the
ubiquitous shawl. Small wonder that
under such conditions the mill hand
woman has hardened, that her fea-
lures and her manners have lost the
gentleness and grace that should be
woman's birthright
