FEW BIRDS SING IN AUGUST
Midseason Month Noticeable for the
Absence of Music From Natures
Feathered Creatures.

| Once upon q time when we had
something to say about August we
spoke on it as natures silent month,
remarks the Terre Haute Star. AL
lIost instantly we were reproved by
eaders who said that in August the
locusts and some dozens CT their kin
made the month noisy, if not musical.
Confessedly, when we wrote of Au-
gust as the silent month, we were
thinking of birds, not bugs.
The song sparrow, the red-eyed
vireo and sometimes the ovenbird try
to take from August its value as a
synonym for silence, but Of what ac-
count is the music of three when their
thousand fellows refuse to sing?
August is the molting month and
molting is a painful process. The
birds do not feel like singing, and,
mostly, they do not sing, but it is high
ly probable that they would not, even
If nature were not insisting on a
change of feathers. The reason is that
the season Is late. Housekeeping was
pushed forward because roofs were
likely to leak.
August, however, for it's main part,
will hold it's silent record. 1t is the
midseason and it shows forth together
some Of the beauties of summer and
Of fall. The belated rose blossoms
with the early aster and the goldenrod
stands between. August has neither
the full glory Of burning July nor Of
cool September, but it shares in some
small part of the glories of each.

will give new life and vigor to the
teaching power Of each individual

meetings of this kind at least once
each year.

Mining Company, about a mile
north of the state line, has as
sumed the appearance OF a real
mine. The mine buildings, in
Guiding a 300 ton mill, are practi-

mill will be started up soon. The
shaft has been sunk about 250
feet and penetrated an ore body
that surpassed in richness the
expectations of the operators.
According to drill records a still
more promising vein OF ore will
be found at about the 800 foot
level. Considerable ore is already
in stock ready for milling. Just
south of the mill w. Z. Stoskopf
is building a dozen four room

S. E. X. T. Association
Gets a Cold Receipt

Gets a Cold Reception.
The extreme cold weather pro-
vided by the weather man and
lack of gas taxed every effort that
the good people Of Chanute could
bring forth to comfortably care
for the teachers who met in that
city last week for their annual
meeting. But Chanute did nobly
and all the teachers appreciated
the hospitality of its citizens.
The enrolment was not as large
as usual on account Of the severe
cold weather but those present
were privileged to hear speakers
of national reputation, and the
program as a whole was equal to
or better than the programs OF
previous years.
There were sreoial sessions for
the city superintendent, county
superintendent, rural school
teachers, graded school teachers
and high school instructors. The
general sessions were held Thurs
day afternoon, night, Friday
morning and night. At these
general sessions such subjects as
The Gift of the School by Dean
Arnold Of Simmons College, Bos-
ton, The Modern School by DR..
Geo. Strayer of Columbia Uuiver-
sity; The Divinity and Person
atty of Christ by Ex-Gov.
Hanley Of Indiana; Living beyond
Our Income by DR.. H. J. Waters;
The Truth About Mexico by
Hon. Chas. T. Scott OF lola and
other topics OF equal interest were
presented. Jealousy, the Lep-
rosy of the Soul a study from
Othelle was given by Hon. c. B.
Griffith of Fort Scott on Thurs
day night. On Thursday after
noon there was also music con-
test at which time various cities
competed for loving cups that the
association presented to the win
Ming group Of singers. The basket
ball contest drew the attention OF
many athletes. There were a
number OF teams both of boys
and girls. In the finals lola won
the cup for the boys team and
Elsmore carried off first honors
with their girls team. Some of
the Baxter teachers report that
both boys and girls showed much
speed and skill.
Another important element of
the programs was the presenta-
ton of community music. Old
songs, patriotic songs were sung
with much vim and feeling. The
state schools are endeavoring to
carry this phase of education to
the community thus cultivating a |
true spirit OF democracy.
Friday afternoon the meeting of
the various round tables took
place. Questions relative to the
different subjects taught in the
school were discussed from every
angle. Each teacher had the
privilege to attend the round
table where the particular subject
which she taught was presented.
These meetings are of much value
to anyone who is seeking informa-
ton, plans and methods that he
might carry home and use to an
advantage in his class. No teacher
can possibly attend these meet
ings and come home without get
ting some idea or r-plan which viii
enable her to do better work for
the pupils whom she is teaching.
