DOES TEACHING PAY2

TINE talk that was started by Miss
i Helen Taft, acting president of
Bryn Mawr college, when she assert
ed that In her opinion the professors
of the country should strike for high
er salaries has led many people to ask
pays. 1t has long been called the
''worst paid profession and there is
no doubt that the teacher must sacri-
flee any hopes of n great income, how
ever eminent he or she may become.
Yet there is no profession of n more
vital importance than teaching, and
the teacher should be treated as, and
receive the remuneration of, valua-
BILE member of society. Teaching
should be made attractive, and every
means that could induce people of
talent. force, energy and charm to
take up teaching should be used as n
matter Of course, since the community
is bound To benefit.
There are some who say that the
vacations of teachers are longer than
In the other professions, and this is
SO. But the work itself is extremely
fatguing; even with the long vaca-
lions, many teachers break down Il
what should be the prime of life.
Then these vacations are often cur
tailed by summer work and extension
work.
Teaching in America is largely in
the hands of women. 1t is woman's
duty TO see that teaching is brought
70 IFS highest efficiency, and that II Is
made attractive to the right people.
Teachlng must be better paid or the
men and women who are most needed
az teachers will 90 into other work.

SOMETHING TO
THINK ABOUT
By F. A. WALKER


He imagined his battles long be.
fore the first gun of conflict sounded.
and though he dwelt on victory he
saw In his Imagination Waterloo as
plainly as Marengo or Austerlitz.
Swifter than light the Imagination
travels In an instant of time to the
outermost star of our universe and
returns as quickly as 1t went.
1t defes time and annihilates
space.
1t disregards probability and over
looks all laws.
1t has pioneered every progress
that man has made since the world
began and multiplied his happiness
and his Ills alike.
1t is one function which man pos
sesses which he does not share with
forms of life lower than himself.
There are many animals who give
proof of having the power of
thought, even of reason.
There is not one that has ever
shown the slightest evidence of be-
ing able to imagine anything outside
of something 1t has already expert
enced.
Do you cultivate your Imagination ?
Do you guide it along right and use
full lines and direct it into result
getting endeavors?
If you do not you are wasting a
power that God bestowed on you
when He said, LET them (man) have
dominion over all the EARTH"
Imagination will help you to have
that dominion If you use 1t rightly.
1t will help the weakest thing in
all the earth to have dominion over
you If you use 1t wrongly.
Base your imaginings on truth
give them foundation of fact and
| they will prove useful and fruitful
profitable and worth while.

LIERNG, R. F. D., Ravenswood, w. Va.
The ordinary day of most housewives
is a ceaseless treadmill of washing,
cooking, cleaning, mending, sweeping,
busting and caring for little ones. How
much harder the tasks when some de-
rangement of the system causes head
aches, backaches, bearing-down pains
and nervousness. Every such woman
should profit by Mrs. Liering's expert
ence. Remember this, for over forty
years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
compound has been restoring health.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
IT RA6EDY.n

N ISGoNERY Of the fact that
H. the word tragedy" is
compound of two Greek words
meaning goat" and song and
that literal translation of the
original term would be "a song
of the goat" throws but little
light upon the modern use of
the word, until one examines
the custom in vogue in ancient
Greece, particularly In connec-
tion with the production of
tragedies.
Here, though, we find that the
goat played a central role in
these entertainments. Not only
was one of the animals offered
as prize for the best perform
ance by the actors but, because
the goat is very partial to eat
ing grape-yines, and therefore
an enemy of Bacchus-the pa
gan god of wine In whose honor
the festivals were held-one of
them was sacrificed at each pro
duction Of Il tragedy. Further
to carry out the smile, the ac-
tors were dressed for the most
part In goat skins, because
many of them posed as mar
tyrs, Il custom from which we
obtain our word "satirical." The
singing of a solemn, melanchonc
song was the signal for the sac
rifice of the goat, and 1t Is be-
cause of this connection that we
apply the word tragedy" to
something which is extremely
sad, whether on the stage or In
everyday life.

IMAGINATION

7 SAT the other day in the studio
L of d great artist and watched him
as he made ready to begin a picture.
As he placed the canvas upon the
easel l asked him what he was to
paint.
The answer that he made to me
was so vivid and so strikingly told
that l almost seemed to see upon the
blank canvas the finished work.
But | knew what l saw was only
a dim counterpart of the thing that
he saw, for in his Imagination the
whole picture was as plain in its
form and as distinct in, its colors, In
its then mental existence, as it was
later to be to thousands of admiring
eyes.
This world would be a sad and
desolate place without Imagination.
Art would falter and science would
dry up and blow away.
Imagination is the real mother of
accomplishment
If the boy did not vision tho man,
did not imagine himself as he will
be when he grows up, all the great
incentives of youth would vanish and
all its endeavor disappear
Nothing is so exhilarating a spur
to endeavor as the imagination of
what will result from effort.
1t Is the imaginings of what money
will buy for us in necessities, COM
forts and luxuries that keep us keen
ly at its earning and conscientiously
at its saving.
1t is the imagining of what may
be the result that keeps the chemist
in his laboratory through night hours
or the student at his books when ma.
ture would send him to bed.
Imagination helps us to live and II
not infrequently causes us to die.
A felon in an English prison, who
had been sentenced to death, was
made the subject of an experiment
which showed the power of imagined
suffering.
He was blindfolded and 1t was ex.
planned to him that in the place OF
the usual form of execution he was
to be bled to death.
His arm was barred and across the
large vein on the inside of the elbow
Joint was drawn, but without max
ing any wound, the edge of a knife
Immediately there was caused to flow
down his arm a stream of blood-warn
water.
Attendants counted his pulse and
carried on whispered conversation
about the evidences of failing vital
ity.
Slowly the man grew weaker, his
flesh lost its color, and about the
time that a man would have bled tC
death from such wound actually
inflicted, the prisoner died from pure
Imagination.
Half our ills are no more substan
tial than was the cut in the prison
er's arm, but we, like him, suffer
through our imaginations all the pains
of reality.
"Imagination," said Napoleon, "rules
the world"
Imagination ruled Napoleon. HI
lived on the vision of himself as
conqueror of Europe.

comes along asking impertinent ques-
tons as to how many children I have,
and my maiden name before I was
married, and whether there's insanity
in the family.
I'm sick and tired of answering
such questions. If my old friends
want to dig into my family history,
I'll give them all the information they
want, although [ may consider their
c0nundrums in bad taste, but when a
perfect stranger comes along and asks
me If do my own washing, feel that
the line must be drawn somewhere.
Every jack in office asks questions. It
used to be that the assessor would
come to the door politely, and inquire
how many dogs we kept, and take our
estimate of the value of our prop
erty without looking as though he
knew we ought to be prosecuted for
perjury. But now he must know the
color of your grandfather's side whis-
kers, and if you tell him that you keep
no dogs he goes out and looks under
the house, and in the barn, and when
he, comes back he warns you that the
penalties for giving false information
are severe
"Mr. CurfeW says that the next
time the assessor comes, he is going
to throw him over the back fence and
kick him down the alley for a dis
lance of seven blocks, and hope he'll
keep his word"
II didn't mean to offend YOU" said
the stranger "I'm introducing a wash
ing powder that saves half the labor,
and dispenses with soap altogether
With this marvellous powder woman
can do the weeks washing and have
her clothes hung on the line, inside of
two hours"
swell, mister, you take a package
Of your marvellous powder down to
the creek, and give yourself a good
scrubbing, for you look as though you
had been fishing out Of somebody's
dustbin. Your whiskers are full of
sawdust, and your face is covered
with CRIME. If you were introducing
bituminous coal, there might be some
excuse for your appearance, but a
man who is selling washing powder
ought to be like the driven snow, or
nobody will have confidence in him.
