WILLIE IN THE REGIMENT

When Willie in the regiment
Went out to meet the foe,
His sweetheart stood, with face in
tent,
And pale to see him go.
Though sank her heart within hel
breast,
She did not care to cry;
She'd heard in war times it was best
to keep her powder dry.

CRI1lCISES PARDON
 OF BARNEY SUBLE7

The Log Cabin Democrat is in re- ceipt of communication from Jus tice of the Peace P. T. Shock of Enola township, in which he criticises the recent pardon of Barney Sublet, con victed OH charge of grand larceny. Justice Shock says the report that SubleJ while intoxicated merely took blow and threw it in brush heap in a spirit of mischief is a mistake Sublet confessed, Justice Shock writes, that he went into Andy lief fingtonton's field, took blow worth $S, put it in his wagon and carried it seven miles. Two single-trees and four chopping axes were found in Sublet's well the next morning, five parties making complaint against Sublet, the justice states, and the fine and jail sentence were imposed with the understanding that the other charges would be withdrawn.

PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES /:


 Bessie Tedder's condition is grow ing worse. The typhoid has given way, but other complications have de- veloped which make her case indeed serious.
 Mamie Lou Moore has been out three weeks and is still unable to re- turn to her work in grade one. Miss Agnes Maddox is unable to meet her classes today. Pneumonia | is feared
 The pupils enjoyed a match game of ball Friday between the girls of room eight and the boys of room six The game will be finished next Fri day.
 We regret exceedingly the moving away of the Firestones. They are all excellent pupils, and no teacher likes to lose a good pupil.
 The girls of the cooking class did themselves proud at the luncheon Friday to the school board. They could not have been more eager to do everything just right if they had been planning wedding dinner. They were sorry MT. Robins and wife, MT. Harton and Mrs. Little could not be present.
 The roof of the school building has heen repaired this week. We hope the leaks are stopped. Now if we could get doctor for some of the cranky radiators.
 The entertainment given by the Japanese Monday afternoon was both enjoyable and instructive. No better geography lesson has been taught in school than was given us in that hour. And the lecturer paid us a high compliment on the score of our order Having been in every impor tant public school in Missouri except two and in all the larger schools of this state, he is in a position to know what he is talking about.
 When one wishes to indicate how much work a farmer is doing, one usually speaks of the number of acres he is cultivating In comparing the work of two farmers we might say that one cultivates 15 acres and an other 20 acres. That does not nec- essarily mean that the second one does third more work than the first. In measuring the work of teachers we proceed in much the same way. Since all our teachers do prac- tically the same amount of work in day, it follows that the pupils under some of them get great deal more instruction per pupil than those un- der other teachers.
 The following figures show rela- lively how the amount of individual instruction in the various rooms var ies. Instead of naming the room we give the name of the teacher. Muth, 27; Hamilton, l9; Maddox, 20; Wise, 21; Bragg, 17; Burn, 20; Stephens, IA; Flippen, l2; Goatcher, ?; Car michael, g.; Denison 5; Berry, 6; Short, 4, and Becker, 3.
 In interpreting these figures, re- member that the grade teachers are not to be compared with the high school figures, since the comparison is not fair to the latter. Remember also that the rooms where the figure is the smallest is where we put our back ward pupils. For instance, Miss Stephens gives practically twice as much individual attention to pupils as Miss Muth, for her number, IA, is about half of Miss Muth's number, |27. All the numbers in the grades are far too high; none of the pupils get anything like as much individual instruction as they need.

 In that dear old land where I was
 born.
 I'll put my bundle on the rack And board the train for Rackensack. This country here don't seem like that. The more you work the less you get. Back thar when the days works
 done,
 Join a possum hunt or some such fun. As for pleasure, there can be no lack Back thar in dear old Rackensick.. They plant their taters in rich ground, And get full worth every pound, And the scented meadows in the
 spring
 Back to my heart seem to cling. So I'll take my duds and journey back To my old-time home-old Racken-
 sack"
