The Value Of Examinations to Us

The Value of Examinations to Us
Examinations or six weeks quiz
yes are looked upon by many students
as necessary evil that goes hand in
hand with school life and therefore
must be endured. These quizzes
though, are very practical agents in
impressing upon our minds, and help
ing us to remember the things we
are taught in school.
We may learn a lesson perfectly
and remember it until the recitation
period, or for day or two, but in a
week it will have partly or entirely
slipped our minds. When studying
our daily assignments many of US
study them only with the intention
Of remembering them until recitation
period and consequently we easily
forget them afterwards. Examina-
tons call for review or re-study
work and in this manner the subject
becomes further and more thorough
ly introduced into our mind. They
can be said to be synonyms with the
time worn adage Practice makes
Perfect" And examinations are be-
yond comparison as practice work
for our memories.
{ Our life and the life of every thing
In the world is divided into periods
which represent the circumstances
and influences which cause the diff
ferent stages in these lives. Thus
it is with the subjects which we study
in school and so we study them by
their periods, sections, or divisions OF
occurrence or development. 1t is al
ways easier to learn any subject by
obtaining it's facts in order of its
period, providing it can be classed in
to periods.
The six weeks quizz generally
covers the subject by its, periods or
sections in the order that it was
studied. AS result of the system
attic reviews practiced in preparing
for an examination we train our
minds to remember the facts Of the
subject much more easily. Writing
the knowledge on paper also aids
greatly in impressing it upon our
minds. These and many other
facts show that examinations are a
very valuable and necessary part OF
our school work.
On Monday, Nov. %, a meeting OF
the rural school teachers of western
stearns county was held in the audi
forum and various class rooms in the
Junior building. Interesting talks
were given by the following people:
Mr.. Edwards, Miss Backus, Mr..
Huntemer, Mr.. Gillig, Mr.. Smith.

Early Opening of Silo Urged by
Prof. Eckles Requiring animals to
clean up grass and corn stalks at this
season is all right if it is not car
ried to a point of causing drop in
milk production, according to c. H.
Eckles, chief of the dairy husbandry
division at the University of Mime
sofa. The tendency is, he says, to
wait too long before opening the silo.
When this is done the moldy silage on
top should be taken off and hauled
away to some field where the cattle
cannot get at it. Experiments at
the Minnesota Experiment Station at.
University Farm have shown that
moldy silage is not likely to cause
sickness with cattle but the expert
ence of stockmen indicate that sheep
or horses may be injured, according
