NEWSPAPERS IN SCHOOL
 ONE OF THE NEW PADS

One of the fads that are taken up at intervals and passed about with deal of gusto is that of sub- stitution or snpplementing the ordinary school reader with the newspaper. The argument made always is that the pupil is given a knowledge of cohtemporaneous and local history that is valuable, and that it is conveyed in the newspaper in English God save the mark) as good as that in the ordinary text book or the popular novel.
 Now the correctness of the assertion depends a great deal upon the newspaper, and the ed ucation and erudition of those con ducting it. No one attempts to compile a text book upon any branch of education without being first an educated person, and then an individual of long experience and note Tn educational work. No novelist or magazine writer attempts to educate the public without first thorough education and then long training. Some newspapers are as careful ot their work as any. educator or any nov elist. They are conducted by men of education, erudition and broad general knowledge, their reporters are persons of education and wide information, in their offices only first class compositors and proof readers are employed, and there is made every effort for accuracy in statement, in names, in facts, and the use of good English. Even then errors creep in: but on the whole the newspa- per conducted in that way can be useful and valuable in the schools.
 Upon the other hand there are in the newspaper business, as editors, reporters, compositors and proof readers, persons who seem to have been taken by the scruff of the neck and the slack of the trousers, and pitched into it. And the alleged newspapers they produce are sufficient to make Horace Greedy turn over in his grave, while their use of English, whether in orthography, etomology or syntax, would alright the shade of Lindley Marray; and their errors with regard 10 contemDoraneous history, even of local nature, are ridiculous in the extreme.
 Of what value in an educational sense in such newspaper, wheth- CT in the school, the household, the store, the office or in the pub- lie reading room?-Nogales Oasis.

Colds are Often Most Serious-StOp
 Possible Complications

The disregard of cold has often brought many a regret. The fact of Sneezing, Coughing, or a Fever should be warning enough that your system needs immediate attention.

 A bill to compel advertisers to tell the truth has been introduced by Representative Merrill in the Arizona legislature: another to prevent the traducing of candi- dates for office was recently intro- duced. Why some brilliant legis- lator does not introduce a bill pro- hibiting small pox, the foot and mouth disease and a few other such things, is a question. Law and regulation is what we need badly. Few know what laws we have now, consequently more won't do any harm.
