''The teaching of Geography
in Elementary Schools"
CHAPTER "

CHAPTER "
Give two reasons why the
continents should be studied in
in the elementary schools.
How many continents do you
think we should teach in the i'm
termediate years?
What are the two important
phases of Geography?
Illustrate the method of ap-
preach by the topic of ranch life
in the West.
In breaking up a country into
sections for study, four methods
have been resorted to. Name
them and give their advantages
and disadvantages. Which one
do you prefer?
CHAPTER v
Have YOU found the Principles
of Geography hard to teach?
Why do you think the subject
is so difficult?
Name tie topics, the authors
consider under the head of
Principles in Geography
Have you been helped by their
discussion of the topics?
Did you ever pause to think
how much we are indebted to
Wilson, that grand and sagacious
statesman? We are frank to con-
fess that business conditions are
not normal. How could it be
otherwise? With over 900. 900, :
900 people engaged in the most
stupendous conflict the world has
ever known, is it possible for
business to remain normal
1t is only the ignorant and
unreasonable who are heaping
scorn upon our pre-eminent
statesman. When you are
tempted to participate in the
loafer's criticism of our very
efficient administration, pause to
considered these startling facts:
nine-tenths of thh people of the
earth have lost all power of
reason and have taken recourse
to the sword. Included in this
vast number are the world IS most
prolific nations. The war-like
teuton is arrayed for battle. The
allied armies are rolling on to
meet him. Is this fault of Will
son s, or is it due to increasing
jealousy of those tyrannicai
sovereigns who hold the life of
their subjects at their command.
Wilson, as great and noble as he
is, cannot change these inevitable
circumstances. Friends. in view
of these unfavorable conditions,
reason demands that you cease
your condemnation. Regard
your ruler in the same light as
he is regarded by the remainder
of mankind. We are too near him
in time to do him justice. AS we
look down the vista of time, we.
cannot fail to see his striking
physiognomy rising to the high
est pinnacle in the hall of fame.
He is the qrandest figure of the.
present century. Can't you see
his smiling countenance shining
through this horizon of blood and
debauchery? We should rise as
one man and do honor to this,
the most ideal of earthly rulers,
for he is the only friend of peace
among the dictators of the pres
ent time.

MAKES REPLY
TO CHARGES OF MOORE
Wants to Know What He Has Done
to Be Picked as q "Congres-
sional Farmer"

Representative Prouty of Iowa on the
floor of the House yesterday made reply
to Representative Moore of Pennsyl-
yania, who recently made reference to
congressional farmers" in relation to
District legislation. and spoke of some
of the attacks on the half-and-halt
plan as being nostrums.
what have 1 done that he should
pick me out as a farmer?' asked hep
resentative Prouty. 'I don't look like
one and I don't dress like one. He
doesn't call me a liar; he Just BRANDS
me as a farmer and rube from the west
He clearly conveyed to that meeting OF
the Columbia Heights Citizens Asso-
citation that we are a lot of rubes. How.
ever, 1 will put my knowledge or DIS
trict affairs up against his, although
recently he has professed knowledge OF
things of which 1 am ignorant.
Representative Prouty then went on
to exploit some OF his views Oh tdA"
ton in the District.
Moore Reiterates Charge.
Representative Moore. gaining the
a.or did not deny that he has spoken
of farmers and nostrums. but reiterated
the charge with considerable Vigor. ne
said that Washington has more people
than two of the states of the Union
and that expression of opinion in the
District is left almost entirely to citi7
zens' associations.
He said that the House is called upon
.to vote for nostrums that the gentle
man from Iowa and gentlemen from
other states present here"
representative Moore said that the
Kenyon red light act was one OF these
nostrums. that 1t Is an Iowa product
.nd that II 10 not working satisfactor-
lily.
Representative Moore drew laugh
from the House by having read from
the clerks desk clipping from
nawsnaper telling of the shipment OF
several thousand dozen n.sf. Of eggs a;g sa,e Tbe
to be more than two years ola. ane
Ginning stated that the eggs came
from Iowa. and Representative entail er; Moore 1Sns
used this allegation to point out ina.
IL there are any farmers In Iowa they
are of a very shrewd sort.
