BACK TO FIRST PRINCIPLE.
More Time Should Be Spent la Our
School. On Good Plain English.
At tbe recent meeting of tbe
Pennsylvania State School Direc
tors' Association in llarrisburpr,
Lieutenant Governor Robert S.
Murphy, in a strong, stirring ad
dress, said that one great need of
our public schools is to "give
more instruction in good, plain
English." In line with the same
idea, the county superintendent
of Blair cjunty, at the directors'
convention of the county, held at
Hollidaysburg, laid stress upou
the importance ol giving more at
tention to the spelling of words,
and made arrangements for hold
ing county spelling bees to arouse
a greater interest in this study.
All this is a getting back to
first principles, aud indicates that
our moat thoughtful men are real
izing that in our efforts to crowd
into the period of a common school
course, a curriculum that covers
various languages, and different
branches of the higher mathemat
ics, the ai ts, sciences, and many
other branches of study, making
the course as extensive as that cf
colleges, we are undertaking too
much. '
All these studies are valuable
and interesting, but a common
school life is too short to consider
them all. But enthusiasts in spe
cial studies have succeeded in
foisting their hobbies upon tbe
schools, until the course is so
crowded tht the common studies
are abandoned before they are
well understood, and the conse
quence is that good spelling, good
writing, good language, and a
comprehensive knowledge of com
mon arithmetic, that can be made
available in every day life, are not
attained by the pupils of our day.
The study of Latin and various
sciences is needful to those who
intend to continue their studies
beyond the high school, in college
or university, but to the bulk of
our boys and girls who will never
get to college, all such time is
wasted, as they can only obtain a
smattering of the elemeutary
parts, while if the time were de
voted to better culture in the Eng
lish language, orthography, pen
manship, and common arithme
tic, they would be far better til
ted for the duties of life and for
the enjoyment of good literature.
It is high time that our leading
educators are calling a halt to tbe
trend of our commoa schools, and
are making an effort to lop off
some ol tbe many novelties intro
duced in recent years, thus get
ting back to first principles or
fundamentals.

Faithfulness of ''Sunbeam Class."
The sage of the Scriptures tell as to
' train a child in the way he should go
and when ho Is old ho will not dopart
therefrom." Certainly the results of
faithful training are apparent In the
most of the members of Sunbeam
Class, of Asbury Methodist Episcopal
Sunday School. The parents and
teachers of this faithful band of little
girls deserve highest praise for the
tendency Implanted in these little
hearts to work for God and the church,
and other parents, should try to emu
lite their example oy early teaching
the children to love their Sunday
School, and to make a definite effort
to help the church along.
The latest effort of these children
has been to each raise as much money
as possible to help pay their pastor's
salary; and, no doubt, many "grown
folks" will sit up and take notice
when they find that the girls raised
819.00 among themselves with their
teachers contribution.
Surely these youthful workers de
serve praise for assisting the church
with such a nice sum; and the parents
ought to feel justly proud that they
could help the little ones in Buch a
good work. We would do an Injustice
if we did not mention the work of their
teacher Mrs Mae Bair Jn directing
the efforts of the little ones. Surely
the Lord has called her, and especial
ly endowed her with gifts for this
phase of christian work. It is no
wonder the children all like to go to
Sunday School; becauss they love
their teacher.
The number of cents contributed by
each member Is as follows: Opal Slpe,
12c ; Goldie Sipe, 10c.; Nellie Kline,
12c.; Myrtle Williams, 12c.; Edythe
Fix, 15c; Nettie Barker, 30c.; Marian
Hessler, 4ho.; Carrie Mellott, 50c;
Alda Mellott, 60c ; Rachel Sipe, 74c;
Hazel Slpe, 77c ; Pearle Cutchal, $1 00;
Ethel DeShong, $1.00; Rachel De
Shong, 11.00; Esta DeShong, $1.00;
Julia Mumma, $1.05, Nela Bair, $1.50;
Pauline Hann, 9 1.50; total with teach

To Be Le(al, Must be Held the Second

From the fact that a few town

to be lflgal, must be held on the
second Monday of March. Where
the term expires on the first of
March, the newly elected officers
are sworn in on the first Monday,

Another Qirl Sacrificed.
Tbe desperate chances that a
rich American girl takes when
she marries a foreign nobleman
had been proved a great many
times before Anita Stewart mar
ried Prince Mipuel, of Braganzi,
closely related to the royal fami
ly, of the Austro Hungarian em
pire. But the wretched position
in which she now finds herself
one year alter her marriage, must
excite sympathy for her and in
creased contempt for' tbe noble
fool who calls her wife.
Her mother is the sister of
Mrs. A. J. Drexel, ot Philadel
phia, and London, and the widow
of J. Henry Smith, popularly
known as "Silent" Smith, who
died a couple of years ago, leav
ing "a fortune of 50, 000,000.
Prince Miguel has just been
judicially adjudged bankrupt, has
been reduced to the status of a
minor or a lunatic, deprived of all
the privileges of citizenship, while
his wife is debarred from what is
called society not only in Vienna,
but in every European capital,
London included.
Nevertheless her fate is not
likely to deter all other American
heiresses from risking their for
tunes and their happiness by mar
rying an imbecile or a rascal with
a title. The Patriot.

Complementary Colon.
Recent experiments, the results of
which have been placed before the
Academy of Sciences In Paris, appears
to demonstrate that the true comple
mentary colors of the spectrum have
not hitherto been recognized. Red
was formerly considered to be the
complement of green, yellow of violet,
and blue ot orange. But according to
Mr. Rosenstlel, the -eomplementaries
of red and orange are uelther green
nor blue, but two greenish-blue tints,
and the complement of yellow Is blue
and not violet, which Is the comple
ment of green. Mr. Rosenstlel has ac
cordingly formed a new "chromatlo
circle" for tbe use of artists, which
he believes Is more correct than Ita
predecessors.

Used In Driving Oxen, It Came Handy
In Measuring Land.
The origin of the rod, pole or perch
as a lineal and superficial measure
has been traced to the . rod, pole or
goad used to urge and direct a team
of oxen pulling a plough. So It came
about It was used as a convenient and
handy, land measure In feudal times
by the lords in allotting plots of land
for agricultural purposes to the vil
leins and othera.
One rod wide, and forty long (i. eM
one furrow long, deep) built up a quar
ter of an acre. The furlong, or four
poles wide and same depth 1. e., forty
poles, one acre was a convenient
length for a furrow before turning the
ploughs Ot course these lengths
somewhat varied In different parte of
the country where soils and agricul
ture varied, but gradually the slight
variations grew less and finally the
present accepted statutory acre waa
evolved.
Gunter's chain ' of 6 feet (ten
square chains to the acre) was invent
ed by the Rev. Edmund Qunter (1581
1626). He wbb a professor of astrono
my at Oresham College, London, and
Ingeniously adapted It to facilitate
decimal calculations In land measure
ments. The use of the rod In super
ficial measurements of brick work and
lineally In hedges, ditches and fences
followed as a convenient existing
measure.
A "Sort of Cousin."
The lawyer eyed the woman in the
witness-box In patient despair. Then,
on the authority of a writer in the
Detroit News, he rallied vUibly.
"You say, madam," he began, "that
the defendant is a 'sort of relation' of
yours. Will you please explain what
you mean by that Just how you are
related to the defendant?"
"Well, It's like this." replied the
witness, beaming upon the court. "His
first wife's couRln and my second cous
in's first wife's aunt married brothers
named Jones, and they were cousins
to my mother's aunt Then again,
his grandfather on his mother's aide
and my grandfather on my mother's
side were second cousins, and his
stepmother married my husband's
stepfather after his father and my
mother died, and his brother Joe and
my husband's brother ' Harry married
twin sisters. I ain't ever figgered out
Just how close related we are, but I've
always looked on him aa a sort of
cousin."
"Quite right," assented the lawyer,
feebly.
Pleasure and Sacrifice.
An alert little five-year-old was vis
iting a city park with her mother for
the first time. She had noticed the
beautiful red and white swan boats,
aa they passed through In the morn
ing, and her mother had promised
they should come back after the shop
ping was done and have a ride.
Shortly after .dinner they stood on
the bridge over the lagoon, watching
the boata below and listening to the
cry of the barker as he tried to in
duce the passing crowds to patronize
his swan boata.
But when her mother started to
ward the boat landing, little Elsie de
clared very vigorously that she did
not want to go at all, and as her moth
er urged her, broke forth in tears.
This sudden fear was so different
from her former eagerness that her
mother could not understand It until
she noticed tbe boatman's call.
He was crying, "Come along, corn's
along ride clear round the pond
only Ave cents for ladies and genU
children thrown in!"
