SHOULD GO TO SCHOOL FOR WORK.

The editorial in a recent issue of this paper regarding. the influence of women teachers upon boys has called forth some discussion. A number of interesting letters have been received carrying on the discussion as to

whether a woman is a fit teacher for a

ary grades. One writer says "if the lady teacher succeeds in getting my I iy to work at his studies and induces him to learn something I will be satisfied, butVl believe it takes a man to pound education into a lad after he

has reached the age of fifteen."

Thei writer evidently takes a teacher for a pile driver, but there is no

doubt that a great many things in education of the present day are allowed

tn Interfere with school work pure and v n T,ersnn than Horace J. J 4 U W W .IT -. nntlv Ravs : "A boy shquld realize that when he serious work, and certainly many things

. should be relegated to the hours of play. We need more Puritanism in our . early education. A boy should bring, therefore, to the secondary school at thft ae of 13 or 14 a mind wonderfully trained, according to our present

standard, in rote memory and habits of accuracy. Above all he should bring a sense of duty and familiarity with hard work earned through six or

eight years of practice. Our present method is to mane scnooi nair-piay ior the first six or eight years, to require nothing that calls for hard work or develops a sterner side or develops the power of concentration or the willingness to undergo drudgery." There is altogether too much to detract from learning these days. The high school boys these days spend their time aping the colleges, and crowding in as much of college custom and spirit into the high school as they possibly can, both in school and out. The opening exercises now are called "chapel," the girls "co-eds," the football team, "the varsity;" the two or three chaps not big enough to make the team, "the scrubs" and so on ad nauseam. LAKE COUNTY THE MAGNET. That Lake county is destined to be absolutely- the- greatest county In the state of Indiana Is plain to a great many people who do not live within the circumscribed borders of the county. Many of these people admit it rather grudgingly and reluctantly. For that they cannot be blamed, however. It is gratifying to" note, however, that the fact is recognized. Four of White county's most noted lawyers one of them a former judge on the circuit bench have moved to Hammond to begin the pratice of law in

special cases. So convinced are they met region that they have come to in with Lake county. The removal en to this locality is significant. It this rart of the state. Statistics show four times more than the counties that

of the free admission of hides has something to do with the new movement.

The news that the Gary mills first of the approaching year is hailed

and all those in Lake county who axe vitally interested in the growth of the "Magic City." The depression caused by the cessation of manufacturing

industry over the "United States for the past year, while influencing Gary indirectly, has not made so much difference to her, but the starting of the

great wheels of industry in the Indiana Steel plant in January is of vital

importance to Gary and those who and prosperity of the city. From this grow with rapid strides and we will

Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright. 1908, by Edwin A. Nye. KEEP STILL. When trouble is brewing and you can't help it, do the only thing you can do, the only thing that may help, the thing that is appropriate and sen sible Keep stilL When Slander gets on his legs and peddles his fool wares; when Gossip, meddlesome dame, goes on her rounds from door to door, all you can do, the best you can do, Is to Keep still. When your feelings are hurt, be slow to show your wounds. You are excited and have lost your poise. Wait, WAIT! You may say or do something you will be sorry for later on. Keep still. When harsh words come uppermost, put them down BOTTOMMOST and HOLD THEM there by the ponderous weight of deliberate silence. When anger tightens your muscles to strike, wait Wait until you can speak calmly. And when you can speak calmly you may not want to strike. Keep still. When wrong is done you, be slow to give back evil for evil, because he who WTongs you WRONGS HIMSELF THE MORE. He puts the warp of evil in the fabric of his 60ul, which is the same as if he should put poison in bis blood. He will harm himself more than you. Keep still. When a mean correspondent stings you to the quick, you want to "give him as good as he sends" and more. Wait. Write the letter if you must. Say the mean things. But DO NOT SEND THE LETTER. Put it away and wait a few days. When you are no longer agitated, read It again. You may not care to send it. Keep still. ' Silence Is a mighty force. When rightly used it i3 one of the great powers. Silence distinguishes the forceful man. Speech is silvern; si lence is golden. He who under pressure holds his tongue in submission has mastered himself, ne has learned a subtle secret of life that TIME AND SILENCE WILL WORK WONDERS. Keep still. SILENCE WEIGHS TONS. The strength of it, the weight of it has been known only to the few. The great men have been the silent men. Out of their silences they have grown their greatness. The strength of these men is as the 6ilent towering of the mountain peaks the strength of soli tary grandeur. Keen still. THIS DATE IN HISTORY.

Feminine Fads and Fancies

BRIDE IN A at ANDRY. The self-suporting girl who is a prospective bride is oftimes in a quandry regarding the purchases she must make for trousseau or home. It is indeed a very old-fashioned idea which still prevails, that women must provide a linen chest, the table linen, the bedding, towels, curtains and the like. This is not expected of the average bride even when she can afford (such luxuries. It is nice and convenient to have these articles, and it is not improper for one to provide herself with the necessaries, but it is not expected. The only advantage is this: The articles will probably be much nicer than ready purchased ones, and the clever girl will give a touch of handiwork with monograms and the like that look so attractive in the new home. But a working girl when she weds is supposed to be leaving the working world to be cared for by the man who marries her, and he is expected to find the home and be in financial circumstances to provide for it. If he cannot do these" things then the ceremony had best be deferred. After a woman has her own home, through her own ingenuity, cleverness and painstaking she will be able to do more that is helpful in securing needed articles, for she can wait for bargains, do her own sewing, which she cannot do while in the working world, and she can get just hat she most needs. When it comes to preparing her wedding outfit the youthful bride, be her station ever so humble deserves a dainty, girlish dress, after which she must count her money and use It to the best possible advantage. But even the wedding garments are not so numerously F. L. C. soccer race, defeating the Campbell rovers. Howards and Blouins tied for first place in the Monroe Bowling league. NEW HOUSE ROLL CALL IS OUT. Shows Democrats Have 172 and Republicans 219 Representatives. Washington, Nov. 16. The temporary roll call of the house of representatives for the Sixty-first congress has been completed and published. It presents a complete list of members of the new house as shown by unofficial returns, and gives the politics of all of them. According to this publication the next house will consist of 219 republicans and 172 democrats, a total of 391, as against a total of 389 in the house during the last session, of whom 223 were republicans and 166 democrats. The result is a net loss of four from the republican side and a net gain of six on the democratic side, the discrepancy being due to present vacancies. All told, the democrats ' gained seventeen districts and the republicans twelve. The most marked advance made by the democrats was in Indiana, the home of Mr. Bryan's running mate, Mr. Kern. Of the thirteen members constituting the Indiana delegation, only two will be republicans in the next congress, whereas in the present congress thpre are eight republicans from that stateFreight traffic is showing a remarkable Increase the present week and a large per cent of the freights are holiday goods en route wept for that line of trade.
