Dowey, State Worker, Soranton, Pa., on The Teacher Studying, was most helpful and Inspiring. Every lemon, said Mr. Dowey, contains three primary elements: First, something said; second, something done; third, somebody speaks or acts. Every lesson coutalus one central truth, duty, danger, truth or hope. The central truth of each lesson is either a duty to be performed, a danger to be avoided, a truth to be believed, or a hope to be indulged. Mr. Dowey further enlarged upon bis subject by showing that tbe teacher's general prep aration of the lesson included: First, bis general fund of knowledge, gathered from all sources, science, art history, etc.; sec ond, tbe necessity of replenishing ibis fund by reading and other methods of Instruction; and third, only the best material should be used in the preparation. Mr. Dowey made a plea to tbe teachers to read and bear only tbe best, as everything we hear or see, as teachers, will bear directly or indirectly on the lessou. Three thoughts on the special preparation of the lesson were given to col lect, cull and concentrate, lbs teacher seek ing ever to graft into the lesson tbe ele ments of attractiveness, instructlveness and persuasiveness.

NEW PROBE OF HONErOOTOPUS Sought by Representative Henry in House Resolution CAUSES FLUTTER IN CONGRESS Texas Democrat Begins Hostilities on Administration Program Henry Resolution Will Mean Real Scrap. The Democratic camp In Washing ton was thrown into confusion Fri day when Representative Robert L. Henry of Texas, chairman of the house committee on rules, presented a bill designed to pave the way for a re newal of the Inquiry into the so-called money trust. In a statement accompanying the bill Mr. Henry declares that Wall street conspirators are back of the present movement for banking and currency legislation and that ."their only aim is to pass the Aldrleh bi'.l veneered over bo as to fool the peo ple." Whether Mr. Heury intended It or not, his bill aud the accompanying statement are accepted as a declara tion of war by radical Democrats on the administration plan to put through a banking and currency revision 'bill at this session, of congress. The bill -htjjtoed by Mr. Henry give. comiuUe$C4ng.res8 the sole visitatlonal p'ows IVover rational banks and other financial institutions exercised by the courts and the comp troller of the currency. The leaders are hostile to a renewal of the money trust Investigation and will do everything possible to have the Henry bill pigeonholed In tba banking and currency committee to which It was referred. .Mr. Henry an nounced, however, that he would make every effort to have the bill reported. Probe of Lobbies to Go Deep. A probe Into the working of lobbies and lobbyists will be tbe next movo of the special subcommittee now in vestigating President Wilson's allega tions that powerful and Insidious in fluences have been working against the tariff bill. This whs Indicated by developments at an exe&fiilve session of the commit tee. Thus Tar the committee has con fined its efforts to the sugar and wool lobbying on the tariff bill, but It be lieves that there are more interesting fields for Inquiry. Senator Jacob H. Galllnger of New Hampshire, a Republican and "father of the senate," furnished a sensation while on the stand. He supplemented the attack made a few days ago upon President Wilson by Senator Townsend and told the committee he thought the influences were not superior in force to the in fluences asserted by the opponents of tariff reduction by the publicity cam paign, the endless chain letters and every other phase of outside Influence. Chairman Overman, quite upset by the trend the examination was taking, Inquired: "Do you think a member of the house or senate could be intimidated?" "Oh, I hope not," said Senator Gal llnger. In answer to a question by Senator Reed the witness replied: "When a man says that he would 'hang someone as high as Hainan' if that person did not do certain things, and that an industry which proposed reduction of wages and did so would be Investigated, I think that Is about the worst kind of Influence I can imagine." Senate Committee Favors Suffrage. Senator Ashurst submitted the re port of the women's suffrage commit tee recommending passage of the Chamberlain resolution for a constitu tional amendment extending suffrage to women. In considering whether the vote should be granted the report sets forth the Important considerations for grant ing equal franchise and concludes that the woman applicant 1b entitled to her share in running the government.
