BETTER TEACHERS. FOR ...,.-
 '''-' ''F'''': & THE RURAL SCHOOLS
Talk Two

(By J. L. McBrien, School Extension Agent, U. s. Department of Educa- .tion, Department of the lnterior)
 No man of prominence has ever em- phasized the value and importance of professionally trained teachers with better logic than did J. Sterling Mor- ton, secretary of agriculture in Presi- dent Cleveland's cabinet, when he said:
 "We demand educated educators We demand professionally trained teachers, men and women of ire prochable character and well-rested abilities. We demand from our legis- lato0re laws raising the standard of i the profession and cxalting the office of the teacher As the doctor of med icine or the practitioner at law is only admitted within the pale of his c.l.iag upon the production of his pachmest or certificates, so the applicant for the position of instructor in our primary and other schools should be required by law to first produce his diploma, his authority to teach, from the nor nal schools.
 We call no uneducated quack or charlatan to perform surgery upon the bodies of our children lest they may be deformed, crippled, and maim- ed physically all their lives. Let su take ejual care that we instrust the development of the mental faculties to skilled instructors of magnanimous character that the mentalites of our children may not be mutilated, de- formed, and crippled to halt and limp through all the centuries of their never-ending lives. The deformed body will die, and be forever put out of sight under the ground, but mind made monstrous by bad teaching does not, but stalks forever among the ages, an immortal mockery of the divine image"
 This plea of Mr Morton for pro- fessionally trained teachers was made the platform of the first national con ference on teacher training for rural schools which met at Chicago in Sep tember. 1914, in it's nationwide cam paign for professionally trained rural teachers.

GAME RESERVATIONS.

Washington, D. C., Dec. 2.&FftvSe' vations are maintained by the Biolog- ical Survey, U. s. Department of Agriculture. The mammal reserva- tions include the Montana Bison range the Wind Cave Game Preserve in South Dakota, the Niobrara Reserva- tion in Nebraska, the Elk Refuge in Wyoming, and the Sullys Hill Game Preserve in North Dakota. The Nio- brara Reservation was intended as bird reserve, but has been stocked with big game and is at present main tained chiefly for buffalo and elk, ac- cording to the annual report of the chief of the Biological Survey, just is sued. In the first three reservations mentioned the herds of buffalo have shown a notable increase since their establishment a few years ago, says the report, and now include 207 head, or more than a third of all the buff falo which now belong to the govern ment. The elk number about,160 and the antelope 40, making a total Of about 400 head of big game.
 National Bird Reservations.
 The number of bird reservations was increased during the year by the addition of the Big Lake Reservation in Arkansas. Sixty-seven resreya- tions are now maintained primarily for birds. The report urges the inn portance and necessity of retaining as breeding grounds for water fowl and other birds, tracts of land which are not especially valuable for agri- cultural purposes. The area of marsh land necessary for breeding grounds is insignificant, it is said, in compari- son with the benefits which will ac- crue to the public through the in- crease in our supply of game birds.

Before 1t became definitely known
that the only Democratic congressman
Maine had was defeated In the election
held in that state Monday, the New
York Times, a Woodrow Wilson news
paper, published as its leading edi-
torial comment on the Maine election,
bringing out the fact that the Republi-
cans and Progressives were fully
united in Maine and that the labor
vote in Maine can not be swung by
any such legislation as the Adamson
eight-hour-day hill. The Times says:
And the Republican vote so far as
Maine is concerned, must hcnceforth
he understood as including the Pro-
gressive vote, which has become Just
as Republican as any" The Times
says at length:
As n rule, majority of from $4,000
to 10000 in Maine has been cousid-
cred favorable to the Republican
chances in the nation. In recent cleo
tons the Republican party has been
so shot to pieces in that state that an
abnormal majority was not to he cx-
pected, and the Republicans are en-
titled 10 all the satisfaction they will
take from a majority which. il much
less than they have received in other
years, is more than they counted upon.
II is plain that Roosevelt carried
most Of the Progressives with him into
the Republican camp 1t appears
probable. too, that more Of the new
voters supported the Republican than
the Democratic candidates. II is fur
ther evident that the Republicans and
Prngressives voted solidly and did not
scratch their tickets much. This is ap-
parent from the fact that the weakest
candidate on the Republican ticket
Colonel Hale. did not run very greatly
behind his fellow-canddate for sena-
tor, Ex-Governor Fernald. The Re-
nubllcans expected Hale 10 he cut right

health and vlgor OF the country and
to the happiness OF those whom IT
Affects II Is with genuine pride that
! play my part in completing the
legislation. ! congratulate the coun-

This was the statement OF Presi-
dent Wilson as. seated before the
movie camera, he signed the child
labor bin And now the bill he
signed proves to be fraud and n
fake. 1t forblds shipment out OF a
state OF the product Of a cannery,

tiscd child labor law, they can pur-

of holding their gOoG-j thirty days
before shipment. to escape the pro-
hibitlon of the law It was one OF
Mr.. Wilson's Democratic h<nchmen
in the Senate who substituted this
provision for the really effective
provision which had been adopted
In the House.
The effort of the Wilson admins
tration to deceive the public into be-
lieving that the Democratic admins
tration had passed and the president
had signed real child labor law.
when in fact it has done nothing of
the kind, has served to recall the
fact that before no entered the
White House Mr.. Wilson denounced
the utilization of the commerce
clause of the constitution to regulate
child labor in the most scathing
terms, and serves to confirm the Re-
publican contention that he rathered
a fake bill merely to gain votes on
election day.
