TEACHING UNDER DIFFICULTIES.
An Arctic School Wlmro Tlicto Wiiro Few
Textbooks.
Miss Aunt Fuleonior writes an nrtlolo
for Tho Century on "Tho Throe It's at
Clrclo City." Miss Fuleomur says:
Tho greatest, di'awh.i' k to iny school
vrorls was the lin k of bonks. Naturally
most of the children required chart ami
primer, nei tin t nt which was Included in
tho schoul outfit, nor could they bo ob
tained at Circle City. Had there not been
n, good lilnciiliiiiird anil a plentiful supply
of crayon i scarcely know how I should
have mummed. I would irrotin tho little 1
onos about 1110 at the blackboard and make ,
uj) tho lessons day by day In both printing
mid writing. They liked to write it
came easy to them anil each ono trlud to
mako his writing look plainer mill neater
than that of his fellows. Tho littlo ones
wero ambitious to read out of books, ''like
the big nirls. " As I had nono for them,
thoy hunted up "books," as they culled
them, seizing upon stray leaves from nov
els mid pieces of ncwf.paper.
A good many grown girls nnd boys wero
Just learning to read. They wero ashamed
and awkward at tho blackboard, mid at
first did not progress us fast as the littlo
ones. Tills uiado such uphill work and
was so discouraging that 1 was afraid I
would loso nmny of tho older ones alto
gether. At tills juncture, however, tho
missionary of the church of England, who
was stat i. .in il tor the winter at Circle Olty,
kindly helped me out by the loan of (I
number of bonks, slates and pencils.
Among these I ks wi re six primers and
first renders. How happy I was to got
thorn, oven though they had to bo divided
among 21! children! I doubt If such n
medley of books as ever bcloro seen in n
KchooliiHDin a set of ordinary schoolbooks
for intermediate grades, including ft phys
ical geography and a world's history;
Knglisli reaifers, spellers and littlo paper
covered arit timet ios; UUpugcb from "Chris
ty's Old Organ," about half of tho Now
Testament, 100 pages from " Tho Woman
In White," parts of four other novels,
newspaper scraps and n couple of tho
queerest possible littlo religious primers,
publlshul by u, London tract society. Tho
leaves of somo of tho books wero yollow
with ago, having been taken into that
region by somo minors who had studied
them !!0 or more years ago. It was nmus
ing to watch tho children spelling out thu
words nnd trying to read in theso wraps
of old books and papers.
Xoiispapiirs lit Spain.
An educated Hf anbiril Is not tho rulo,
but the exception. A newspnor among a
population mor(thnn two-thirds of which
can neither lead nor write is not likely to
have a trouiiiiilous circulation or unlimit
ed power. Kven in tho cities tho circula
tion is not large. La Kpocha, tho conserv
ative organ of Madrid, for example, has n
circulation of less than 5,000 copies. Out
hlde of Uurcolomi nnd Madrid thero nro
perhaps !00 papers published in Spain,
nnd not half of these pretend to bo nows
pu pcrs.
Indeed outof nil tho 1,200 periodicals
published In Sifilti the sciuutlflo Journals,
religious papers and fashion papers nro
largely in the majority, while tho newspa
pers aro in the minority. Newspaper en
terprise does nut have much encourage
ment. Foreign news is oblaincd chlcily
from government oWciulB. Tho wholo
kingdom of Spain does not recelvo as
mnny foreign dispatches in u woek as nro
sent to a single city in this country in u
single day. Tho average .Spanish editor
doos not seo much use in paying for an
intcruetlng dispatch from nbronrt when
the chances are about ten to ono that when
ho g'ts tho dispatch tho press oensor will
not allow the pnpur to print it. Chicagu
