School Commissioners Notes.

No notes last week. The commits
sioner was attending the Farmers
Institutes, driving thru the drifts, hear
ing some splendid programs, speechi-
flying little bit herself, and enjoying
potluck twice daily.
There was splendid substance in the
course this year-just how a farmer
may Judge what his soil needs without
a scientific test, how he may supply
this by proper planting without relying
on commercial fertilizers, why Michigan
should lead the world in stock raising,
just why milk-testing pays and that a
movement is actually on foot to procure
a county agent for Charleyoix county.
Hurrah for county agent! Join the
boosters fast increasing crowd!
Three school boards last week made
the request that the state standard
school inspector be invited to visit them
and help them to consider the standard
school proposition. The expense Of
this visit is borne by the state depart
ment. All the school board has to do
is to welcome this expert and to be
open to conviction.
The finest Teachers Institute ever
was: large attendance, earnest speakers
and courteous, attentive listeners.
Pres. Bryan of Colgate University was
popular as a man of fine delivery and
deep thought. Pres. Kaye is master
of details and has way that wins a nd
keeps winning. The Palmer instructor
was very practical in her work and
lives up to her nickname, the "Whirl-
wind" She was less practical but none
the less popular in fortune telling.
Supt. L. L. Tyler of Traverse City came
in at the last moment with new breath
of enthusiasm from without and the
interest could not possibly flag at that
crucial moment. He's capital hand at
story telling too, with fund of beauti-
full truths bound up in compelling
poetry.
One hundred eight plates set at the
teachers supper. Supt. Holiday was
truthfully master of merry-making, and
handed the slalns-wee compliments
right and left. 1t was rather hard on
those East Jordan teachers but he gives
them year to revive.
New drinking fountain expected to
arrive soon at Horton Bay and Barnard
school, one more barrier between chill
dren and disease.
A number of teachers and parents
regret the loss of leader in the spring
activities of the Rural School Athletic
league. Why couldn't each township
have meet just the same. The teach
ers of each township could arrange by
phone or correspondence. That's
easy and the banners don't cost much.
A popcorn stand would pay for them.
Then after you have them they mean a

reason she can not be in Boyne City

Joe Fisher was ono of the most
promising OF the Night School stud
ents. He was by nature light heart,
ed and care free. Unlike many, his
young years had been spent in a
home of affluence and he had had
excellent schooling in Russia. Two
brothers are surgeons in the army.
His last letter from home told Of
the proximity OF the war. His mother
wrote Of the cannonading, the skies
lurid from the lights Of bursting
shell and the terror and suspense
on every side. The boy looked for
ward fearfully to the coming Of each
letter. There was once three
months lapse and he feared and
worried and fretted. He made conf
dantes of his teachers but how much
can teachers do when their time is
so greatly limited?
A honey" place where these fine
winsome, and trusting young folk can
be counseled, loved, entertained and
instructed should be open all the
time.
With look of suffering in his eX-
pressive eyes Joe related the fates
of his Comrades in the Old World
They had returned home from the
war without arms and legs. Joe's I'M
usual refinement and delicate sensi-
biities were worthy generations of
"blue blood" He craved congenial
and elevating companionship. In his

A CRYING NEED.
Bismarck,

Editor, Bismarck Tribune:
The sudden death by suicide of Joe
Fischer, a night school student, drives
home the lesson of crying need.
Throughout the day and evening
there should be open some place
where our immigrant boys and girls
may find warm welcome and a cor
dial interest. A strange land, strange
customs, strange faces and strange
tongue are conducive to headache,
loneliness and depression. With any
degree of i'll health added there is
every incentive for an abnormal act.
