SHOW AT UNIQUE FOR MONDAY

The perversity Of human nature,
especially among Broadway loafers
who are classified under the heading
of ''men-about-town," led Henry Nor
ton to hazard any personal or finan-
cial inconvenience to the end that
he might possess himself of Bessie
Gale. This young actress, be 1T
known, was called "the unattainable'
in the Henry Morton set-and Nor
ton tried his utmost to become the
exception among his kind.
This condition of affairs was made
the basis of the Bluebird Photoplay,
entiteh "The Unattainable," to be
shown at the Unique Theater Mon
day, October %, with Dorothy Dav'
export impersonating Bessie Gale
and Richard Morris playing the role
of the Broadway cad. Going on with
the plot Morton followed Bessie's
theatrical troupe across the CONT
nent. persistently presenting himself
whenever she made the slightest
move.
To have a moment to herself, Bes-
sic descended from the wrong side
of the train when it stopped at a
way-station in the foothills of the
Sierras one day, wandered alone in
eager enjoyment of the mountain air
and scenery-and missed her train.
Within the space of fifteen minutes
Bessie, plus strange fate, altered
the entire course of her Hfe-she
was changed from stage butterfly
to a woman facing the realities and
responsibilities of married life.
Bessie's marriage, her life in the
mountains, her subsequent return to
Broadway and the method and man
ner of these accomplishments have
been woven by Bluebird Photoplay
producers into film drama Of in
tense power and gripping interest;
filled with the vital and verile for
ces that conspire to awaken emotions,
while furnishing, at once, good enter
tainment and moral edification.

FAST TIME TO CHICAGO

J. G. Leming, of Lexington,
shipped eight carloads of cattle
from Lexington to the Chicago stock
yards last week, the run being made
in less than nineteen hours. From
the latter part of June, when these
cattle were put on wild pasture at
Lexington, until the date of ship
ment. they gained in weight from $50
to IT'S pounds per head.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
! TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES !:
IsS SSSS'ss1SS1SSSS0

Practice teachers are busy learn
ing practically how to conduct exam
nations, mark papers and make out
report cards. Perhaps that accounts
for the FUCKERS which are visible in
some foreheads these days.
How many schools IN the county
said anything to their pupils about
Fire Prevention" day? How many
schools made a practical exercise
out of it by actually doing some of
the cleaning suggested in the bulle-
tin issued by the state? Is there
any value in observing special days
by merely talking about them?
Teachers ought to look through
the directions given in the manual as
advised by Larsen during the school
board convention last week. This is
especially true at this time Of the
year with the subjects studied by
the beginners in the schools. Ey
following the very plain directions
a solid foundation will be laid for
the future work of these little peo-
pie. Incidentally look at the fine
list of October songs given on pages
273 to 275. Teachers ought also to
notice that Civics are required dur
ing the entire 7th grade, and His
tory during the entire 8th grade.
There are good many changes in this
Manual and as a result, considerable
study will be required.
The Commissioner Of Education OF
the U. S. stated in his reports some
years ago that the Wisconsin plan
of training rural teachers in county
training school is by far the best
plan yet devised. 1t is the only in
titution of the kind having a genu-
inc rural atmosphere. This is rea-
lized fully in this state. Attempts
have been made repeatedly to have
rural teachers training classes in
connection with the high schools OF
the state The number Of such
courses is exceedingly small and is
practically not increasing. On the
other hand, every legislature is
called upon to increase the number
of county training schools, because
counties demand them even more
rapidly than they are being author
lied by the state. The high school
was required for years to offer
course in the elements of teaching.
This course was such farce that the
requirement was repealed about ten
years ago. In very few high
schools a teacher-training course
has proved a success, but this IS
due to exceptional men being put at
the head of the schools. The spirit
of the high school-rightly or wrong
ly-is the spirit of either a general
education or o. preparation for col
lege. Teacher training is a voca-
tional training and the attempt is be-
ing made seriously to make it a pro-
fessional piece of work. The gene
raj spirit of the high school is the
exact opposite, as it ought to be.
The high school is the peoples col
lege and not a professional school.
Other states, for example, Michigan,
have had the same experience. NO
longer are distinctly high school
teacher-training courses being organ
lied in that state. These courses
are all county courses, located in
most cases in high school buildings.
Similar conditions are found in Min
nesota.

RESULTS IN DEATH

Samuel Broom, the Oshkosh man
who was severely injured here Aug
ust 23, when he attempted to board
a moving train, died at the home
of his sister at oshkosh Saturday.
Mr. Broom was born at New London,
Sept. 25, 1880. The remains were
taken to New London for burial.
Mr.. Broom was taken to a hOspi-
tai at Oshkosh, as soon after the
accident as he could be removed
from the city, and it was thought
he would live, although crippled by
the loss of all of one hand and the
greater part of the other.

Report cards for the first six weeks
were distributed wednesday noon.
The city teachers who are in at
tendance at the Northwestern Asso-
citation meeting at Eau Claire are
Miss Quilting, Miss O'Neil, Miss
Merklein, Miss Lightbody, Miss
Pettingill and Mr.. Rahr
1t is with pleasure that we call the
attention Of the Ladysmith people
to the record made by the high
school students in punctuality the
first six weeks. The total number Of
cases of tardiness was only II Last
year the total for the first six weeks
was So 1t is hoped that the II can
be still further reduced.
The total city attendance the
second six weeks period beginning
last Monday is 760. There are 256
pupils in the west side building, 229
in the south side building and 275
in the high school building. The
largest grade enrolment is the third
grade on the south side with 46 pu-
pills.
It was gratifying to welcome the
number of mothers who attended the
eighth grade visiting day last Fri
day afternoon, and those who at
tended the seventh grade visiting
last Tuesday afternoon. Such meet
ings are are always productive OF
much good as they tend to build up
the cooperation between parents and
teachers so essential in our public
school system. The south side school
had it's meeting on Thursday.
The second six weeks period of
the school year finds pupils and
teachers fully engaged in the routine
of work. The work of organization
is now completed with the possible
exception of one problem in the
south side building. With the new
teachers now acquainted with Their
pupils and with the pupils acqualnt-
ed with their teachers methods, the
semester's work is in good running
order. Every high school student
carries four studies as minimum,
some of the more ambitious carrying
five This ambition to carry extra
work usually develops in the senior
year. The whole attitude and spirit
of the students toward their work
is one which will lead to good re-
suits at the end of the year. In gen
eral, the student body conveys, the
idea that the school is a business
institution and every effort will be
made to grant the boys and girls
who attend school an opportunity to
derive the fullest benefit which it
is possible to get. 1t is hoped that
the school work combined with the
various school activities will help
to create many pleasant memories
for the future.
One of the best services that par,
ents can render to the school is to
send to them children with sound
minds in sound bodies. The child
who is not we'll cannot attend school
regularly. When he does attend
he is greatly handicapped in the
learning process, and this handicar
is not felt by him alone, but extends
to all the children in the room. II
is not only diseases ordinarily termed
Catching" which are contagious, bu'
also the attitude of health or dl
sease. Each parent should see to i
that so far as possible his or hel
child has a healthy body and healthy
outlook on the world; is not eter
nally dosed with medicine, nor neg
llected as to medical, or surglca
| treatment, but is given such health
