By Warren Judson Brier

The writer Of this contribution
spent the best twenty years of his
life in the State Normol School at
River Falls, Wisconsin, entering the
institution at thirty,n years Of
age in 1889 and resigning in 1909.
He was placed in the school as
Conductor of Teachers Institutes
and Teacher of Literature. He held
this position nine years and was
elected President Of the faculty and
served in that capacity for the re-
naming eleven years.
In 1889 and for many years before
and during three years after the
dominating figure on the Board of
Normal Shoot Regents was the sec
rotary Of the Board, Hon. Willard
II. Chandler.
In those days the Secretary of the
Board was amember of that govern
ing body Mr.. Chandler had been a
member Of the Board for something
like eighteen years. was member
when the school was established in
River Falls and when it was opened
in 1875.
He was man OF insight into the
motives and actions of his fellow
men and by swift and positive pro-
cess of reasoning he reached con-
illusions which the lapse of time sell
dom proved to be erroneous. He
had an unusual fund Of good sense
and was not easily sWerved from the
path he had marked out to his goal
He held in contempt the Whims Of
Missionaries as he did the plaudits of
the designing or thougktless. He
never played to the galleries" and
he scorned to increase his own popu-
larity by any of the sycophantic
processes we'll known to the polite
ian. On several occasions the State
Superintendency was within his
reach had he been a place seeker
willing to jostIe less worthy men
aside and seize the nomination.
In carrying out his policies con-
corning the Normal schools he i'm
partially gave every one a chance to
be heard, the Governor who APP
pointed him; The President of a
Normal School; teacher in a fac
ulty; the Janitor in the basement,
and each one had as much influence
as the other unless he brought forth
better reasons for his opinions. Men
who knew him best knew how little
he could be influenced by anything
in the nature of pulp.
AS Secretary of the Board and
Chairman Of the Committee on
Teachers his dictum was final in the
selection or rejection of the EN-.
ployees of the Board. Many a mem

Der of faculty was indebted to Mr..
Chandler for his continuance when a
president was anxious to sever the
persons connection with the instl-
tuition and on the other hand some
were dropped by the Secretary
against the wish of the head Of the
school.
The writer was Intimately ac-
quainted with Mr.. Chandler before
the River Falls school was organ
lied and had the opportunity to
learn first hand the part the Secre-
tary played in launching the Fourth
Normal school and to know what a
safe and steadfast pilot he proved
for the institution from its opening
in 1875 until he was swept over
board by the Democratic wave of
1891 which landed George w. Peck
in the gubernatorial chair and wash
ed all Republican names from the
Normal Boards slate.
There is no question but that the
Normal school system of Wisconsin
is under greater obligation to Will
ard H Chandler than to any other
influence ever exerted to carry it
forward on its prosperous career.
With the writer, making his ad-
vent into the school, came John O..
Emery, who left the Fit Atkinson
schools where for many years he
had enjoyed a phenomenal success,
to accept the presidency Of the Riv-
er Falls Normal.
For four years we worked side by
side in the institution and saw the
enrolment in the Normal depart
ment increase forty per cent and the
number in the Normal faculty in
crease fifty per cent. 1t was during
Mr.. Emery's presidency that the
departments Of Drawing, Music,
and Physical Training were estab-
lithed and taught by teachers spec
tally fitted for the work. He left the
school in Furnishing condition His
influence upon the school was not
destined to disappear Immediately
for a Republican wave swept the
Democrats out to sea and landed
Mr.. Emery in the office of State
Superintendent. This made him a
member, lex oficio," Of the Board
of Regents of Normal schools, in
which capacity he served four years,
steadfast friend to the school.
When the school building burned,
November 20, 1897, there was a
strong effort made to build a school
in its stead in some other part of
the state. On the final question be-
fore the Board to rebuild at River
Falls four votes stood in favor of
rebuilding and four against among
the regents appointed by the Gov
ernor. Mr.. Emery voted with the
River Falls regent, Freeman H.
Lord, thus giving five votes in favor
of continuing the school to four
against the measure. This saved the
institution to River Falls.
There are many persons who have
been connected with the school whom
it would be pleasure to name in
this contribution, persons whose
services are worthy the highest com
but the presumption is
that they will be dealt with by 9TH
er contributors.
The writer cannot we'll conclude
this paper, however without par
ticular mention Of a man who for
more than decade was a helpful
and guiding influence in the school,

ment was formed on the evening of
July 81. 1914, in a Partisan cafe.
Some young Italians issued an APP
peal, and a result about 5000 Eng
lish. Belgians, Italians and Slavs at
tended the meeting to consider how
they could best aid the country of
their adoption. Later on when
British and American residents in
Paris tried to form regiments of their
own the authorities informed them
of their inability to accept the offer
so IL was decided that the volunteers
should be drafted into the Foreign
Legion.
The pay of the men of the legion
is the same as that of the other SOL
diers of France-five cents a day and
an allowance of tobacco and wine.
The total membership of the Le-
gion is said to be 35.400, made up as
follows: 500 Britons. 500 Luxembou-

of 1912 and Candidate.

Atlanta, Ca, May 1.-THE Geor-
gia delegation to the national Pro-
gressive convection in Chicago ratified
here today was instructed for Theo-
dore Roosevelt and the national Prog
ressive platform of 1912 was given
unqualified Endorsement. The state
executive committee was given power
to name the electors to be voted on
in the presidential election in Novem-
Der. Progressive leaders said that
this plan would enable the Georgia
Progressives to provide the proper
election machinery in the event the
Progressives and Republicans fixed
on common presidential candidate.
No action was taken regarding put
ting a state ticket into the field. 1t
was the sense of the convention that
this be deferred until after the Chic
ago convention. Resolutions provid-
ing that the Progressive party enter
the Democratic primary Sept. IL were
laid on the table.
Mrs. w. H. FELTON, of Gainesville,
and Mrs. Helen Longstreet of Gains
Vile were elected honorary delegates
to Chicago. This action was said to
be the first of its kind in Georgia po-
litical history.
The contest between c. w. Nc
Clure and H. G. Hastings for national
committeeman will be decided at the
Chicago convention. 1t was announc-
ed tonight that several district con-
tests which would have been decided
in Chicago, had been adjusted here.
Eight delegates at large and 30 dis
trict delegates will go to Chicago.

He "Raised the Limit"

Some Congressman, preparing"
for weekend vacation, began talk
ing of how generous the people are
on army and navy appropriations,
and discussing how very little the
country really cares for money. Over
hearing this conversation, travelling
man philosophically passed the time
relating to his three companions how
generous he had always been with
his money, and how little he cared
for it. The inevitable Englishman in
the party insisted that gold was moth
ing to him, and proved his point by
setting fire to a ten-pound note and
lighting his pipe with it. The Ger
man feeling that this was challenge
lit his cigar with a brightly-burning
fifty-dollar bill, insisting that science
and research are the only things
worth while. The bids were going
pretty strong for the little Jew, but
he boosted that he would raise the
limit" of both the Englishman and
German and still remain neutral He
struck a match, and in its flare the
wondering spectators saw the figures
$1,000. He had made good his
bluff" but they didn't stop to think
that it was merely his check for a
thousand dollars which he burned so
neutrality-suspicious. Magazine. ,

trically.
Out of Marysville, Cal. comes a
story of hobo who prepares his food
on an electric hot plate instead of
cooking ii over an open fire kindled
with brushwood picked up from the
wayside. He camps along the right
of ways of Decentralization lines and
thus always has an abundant supply
of current at his command. He car
ries a small folding gridiron, on the
under side of which is a series of re-
sistance coils. When mealtime comes
he places the device on a couple of
bottles or a stone. grounds it by max
ing contact with a rail, and then
throws an insulated wire, fitted at
one end with a hook, to an overhead
transmission line, or fixes II to a
third rail. 1t is not a trick to be
attempted without great care, how
ever, for a dangerous shock is as
likely as not to result.-From the

Respirator For Newborn Infants

Respirator For Newborn Infants.
An artificial respirator for infants
is described in the Popular Mechanics
Magazine. 1t is similar to instru-
ments devised for resuscitating adults
and is employed to produce artificial
respiration in q newborn baby whose
breathing is insufficient or wholly
lacking. The instrument, which may
be clamped to table, consists of two
cylinders with pistons operated by a
single handle. A rubber tube leads
from each cylinder to rubber mask
held over the infants nose and
mouth. The upward stroke of the
pistons draws air from the lungs into
one cylinder and fills the other with
fresh air. The down stroke fills the
lungs with the fresh air at a safe
pressure and expels the impure air
from the cylinder already filled with
air from the lungs. The fresh and
impure air never mingle. The vol
ume per stroke can be varied from
"a to s Gu. In. About so strokes
per minute are required the first
hour. The instrument with its case
weighs four pounds.
