At every session of tho .TouVrson

Itnllnn or HungRi'lnn nroHult nnd Imttory

Men who quarrel over politics are
foolish and don't know It. Political par
ties are a necessity, on which tho very
life of our country depends. If there
wore but ono party, how long would wo
remain a Republic? No two parlies
can have like principles or policies.
Each political party thinks Us doctrines
rlifht and for the best tfood of the coun
try. So, people who tiro honest In their
political convictions should always lie
respected, no matter to what political
party they may belong. People who
can not argue or talk on tho political
situation without getting "hot" and
abusing their neighbors, better stay nt
homo and paw wood or tend tho baby.
With proper attention to breeding
and selection, taking into account
pedigree, sound sense and sound constl
tut ion, and a careful observance of the
laws of health and morality, there is no
reason why a race of men should not be
developed who would livo at least two
hundred years. A man would then bo
considered young until he wasahundred
and fifty years of age. This could lie
brought about by tho men who had tho
longest lived ancestors constantly select
ing as wives tboso women who had tho
longest lived ancestors, after careful
inquiry as to tho soundness of their
constitutions. Tho effect would show
itself in a few generations, and in tho
course of five or six centuries a race of
extromely long lived people would cer
tainly be tho result. Punxsutawney
Spirit.
Tho authorities of two states and the
veterans of two armies on the 17th Inst,
helped to dedicate the monument civet
cd hy the Philadelphia Brigade to per
petuate the heroism of those who died
upon Antlotam battlefield. Ah a tribute
from the living to tho dead it was as
impressive a spectacle as any inspired
by tho civil war. But tho occasion was
more than a memorial to valor; It was
as fine an expression of homage from
the sons of war to tho higher splendors
of peace as tho country has ever looked
upon. And so long as tho spirit which
thug crowned the dedication of Antle
tam'a shaft shall continue to ennoble
tho American character, so long will
the country be secure against the mad
ness of Jingoism on the ono hand and
tho peril of internal strife on the other
Philadelphia Record.
"Did you ever run across an old homo
newspaper? Did it not prove extremely
interesting as you read its columns of
local news and home mention ? As you
look over its pages, the many seeming
trivial mentions carry with them
multitude of tender and pleasant associ
ations, and you wondor that you prized
me paper so utile at me time it was
printed, when you find it so full of
interest after so many years. It is only
whuu we got hold of some local paper
and view its panorama of the past and
reflect on what perfect mirrors of local
events the papers are, that we begin to
ostimate their true value as recorders
of current history, and reulizo how
worthy of support and patronage is this
collector and reeord-kotipor of tho life
and doings of the community which
from week to week and year to yeur ar3
no faithfully portrayed.
"Religious Tramps," is the subject
Itev. Metzentbin, of the Trinity Lu
theran church, has announced for next
Sunday evening. The Reverend might
odd a little to the subject and niuke it
read tbusly: "Religious Tramps and
Dead Beats." We have no idea how he
will handle the subject and are not sure
that our definition for "Religious
Tramps" will be the same as given by
Rev, Metzenthin, but it is a fact, never
theless, that there are too many "relig
ious tramps and dead beats" in Reynolds
vllle. People who have no regular
plttoe for worship and go from church
to church, and thus escape being ex
pected to support any of the churches,
re certainly "religious tramps," and
on the other band people who are mem
bers of church and don't pay to the
support of the church and pastor are
the meanest kind of "dead beats."
True the gospel Is free, but it requires
money to keep up the current expenses
of a church and keep tbe pastor's lar
der filled.

The favorable reception that "Our
Kducatlonal column" was accorded last
week Is certainly appreciated by the
editor, and we Bhall endeavor to merit
tho samo by giving our renders from
week to week good readable articles.
We were not overstocked with volun
tary contributions this week, but wo
sincerely hope that, those of our friends
who aro interested In tho welfare of this
column will take hold and contribute
something. The editorhasotherdntles
to perforin and with this in connection
makes his labors very burdonsome in
deed. Let us hear from you, one and
all.
We deem tho following clipping from
the Dullols Courier, and written by
Superintendent Harmon, worthy of re
production in this column:
"What Is your idea? Is it tho toacher
who has the quietest school during pro
gram hours; the best marching to and
from tho class and through tho halls;
tho neatest papers and the highest
averages in your examinations; the one
who is a thorough master of the subject
to bo taught, and has a perfect ac
quaintance with tho best methods of
Imparting instruction, and complete
understanding of tho laws of the growth
of tho mind? Do all these questions
combined make tho successful teacher?
8nposo that wo add to theso ncconv
plishments beauty of form, grace of car
riage, a spotless reputation, an enviable
moral character. Are you satislied now
with your Ideal teacher? A woman
may w possessed of all these attributes,
and yet prove an unfortunate failure.
Soul in tho work, a love for children
faith in thorn and in God theso clo
ments must bo found in the ideal teach
er. Other attainments sho may and
ought to have, these spiritual gifts she
must have. With those she may appar
ently succeed, and yet in truth fall most
lamentably. With these hur work can
not bo a failure, though sho lack as
greatly In inanngement as did Pcstaloz
7.. or in learning and professional
knowledge as did some of those earlier
teachers of our boyhood days, whoso
Interest In us, and love for us, Inspired
us as no others were ablo to do."
