The world moves on . The discovered gelll must be polished, the nugget minted. The daily round of responcibilities must be met with prehaps little to inspire and less to elevateThe relentless world nods approval or with averted face seeks the horizon, where dimly out· lined, appears the latest figure, equally n<;>vel, equally hopeful, and equally doomed to d1ss • pointment. Fortunately for the future there always a,p· pears something new or at least some new l ~:.i, d of the old which is the next thing to be desJie in the uncertain game of• life and art. ,, Three years ago, the NORMAL "COU~IE.R wide-eyed and truthful stepped out merrilyThon the high-road of letters and pedagogy. 0

Such a mind know what it knows and what it does not know There is in it but little of the vague, and yen that little is kept away from the certain, assigned by thought and word, to the ch~mber of unc e rtainti from which the word never brings it forth without the preface of a "guess" or "supposb," or "should think," or "was told," etc. , thus labeling it with a ma.rk to distinguish it from that knowl dge that has pa'-sed tl:: ro11°·h the en ible and t com n, 11art of the mind's coir: cl gold.

The annual reception of the Y. M. & Y. w. C. A. association's was held in the Chapel Satday evening, F:ept. 14. Although the heat wa intense, there was as ,large an attendance a usual. There was no formal re ception.
A very · interesting program was rendered , representing School life at the Normal in its various departments.
The instrumental solo '' Old Aunt Rhoda" on the piano by Miss Carrie Ord fittingly represent · ed the musical departmen t . Those that could appreciate that grade of clas;;ical music wer highly entertained. The player showed remarkable skill and accomplishment,

The great cause wh ich hinder s public education i n this country is th e fact that th e· p eople, - the cit iz ens, the vote r s - h ave no genuine love for education and no real app r ec iatio n of what learning is

By laws we protect liti ga nt s from falling into the hands of p e ttifoggers who have not been admitted and licensed to practice at the bar after a regular course of instruction. So, too, we protect sick people against the ignorance of physicians not regularly graduated from a school of medicine. But our teachers, though after a perfunctory examination they acquire a certificate to teach, in six cases out of ten are young women with no heart in their work, and who intend to follow the trade only until they are invited to marry; in two other cases they are young men who wish to support themselves while studying what they consider a real profession; in another the teacher is an incompetent;

In the country, wheth e r in th e ast or West, North or South, the 'co mpensation to school-teachers is so small that it seems wo,1derful that those who receive th ese sal a ri es can live on them . These salaries range from $10 0 to s900 a year. The average for a school year of seven months is $318.36 for men and $26 2 .9 2 for women. The village school-master will earn as much as the cobbler, the school-mistress will make as much in the year as the dressmaker, and they do not work any baraer. Those of the number who have thouuht 0 about their calling, and who have been moved to feel that great responsibilities devolved upon them, have realized that the conditions were such that they could do next to nothing, and usually they have g iven over any effort to secure a change in administration.

Their social position in England, France, a nd Germany is infinit e ly superior to that of American teachers . Here to be a teacher is presumptive evidence of lack of force, of deficiency of mental initiative. School-teachers should be considered the elect of the land, and they will be so considered when they are selected from th&t class which is the best in every community. The school-teacher should be a leader in social life and an adviser in the political life of every neighborhood, because the position is the most important public local office held in any community.

The Youth and the Whistle,
"You have hear~, " aid a youth to hiss, eetheart, who tood, While be sat on a corn - heaf at daylight's d ecline"You have heard of the Danish boy's whistle of wood? l wi h the Danish boy's whistle were mine."
" nd \\ hat would do with it ?-tell me," she said, \ hile an arch mile played over her beautiful face, "l w ould blow it, • be an wered, "and then my fair maid " ould fly to my side , • and would here -take her place."
••Is that all you wi h it for ? That may be yours , ithout a n y magic," the fa ir maiden -cried: "A favo r so slight ones go od nature secures;'' nd she pl a yfully eated herself by bis side.
·•I would blow it again,'' said the youth , "and the charm vVou\d work so, that not even modesty' s check " ould be able to keep from my neck your fine arm;" She sm il e d- and she laid her fine arm round his neck.
"Yet once more would I blow, and the music deviue Would bring me a third time an exquisite bliss; Y ou would lay your fair cheek to this brown one of mine.
And your lips, stealing past it, would give me a kiss."
The maiden la ugh ed out iu her innocent g lee, "What a fool of yourself with your whistle you'd make!
For only consider, how silly ' twould be To sit there and whistle for-what you might take !" ROBERT STORY.

Napoleon has be n call d a lo, r of warfare; let that appellation be reserved for one who, • •Wept because ther were no more worlds to conquer."
The French leader was not a lover of war.
Colburn says: "It is not enough to say that France did not provoke war, she all but went down on her knees to avert hostilities with England. All the wars of the European continent against the Re, olution and against the Empire were begun by England and suppo~ted by English go ld.
• It has been said that apoleon usurped the Consular throne ; never in the history of the world was such unamimity of purpose as was displayed· in making Napoleon Consul of France; he received more than three million votes against fifteen hundred. He ·dethroned nothing, when he afterward became Emperor
:ic e t anarch • yet he ha been condemed for allowing him etr to be crowned.

In hi z eal for Franc and for her benefit nd p rpetuat-ion Napoleon made the fatat mistakf of hi life- his divorce from Josephin . \II ther fault of tbi g1:eat man sink into insi ..., nificence be ide thi!i and yet I believe it was ommi tted more as a mistaken idea than as a rim , for I is love for Josephine was sine re and he suffered as much by the separation as . h perhaps more he had to bear remorse \\ hich she did not.
I apoleon was alike denounced by his enemies for what he did and from what he refrain ~d from doing He has been condemned with merciless severity for liberating portions of Italy and the Duchy of Warsaw and in the same manner condemned for not liberating Russtan and ustrian Poland.
General Gourgand says: "Of all generals whether ancient or modern, apoleon was the one ,vho paid most attention to the wounded soldiers. His first thought a{ter every battle was always for them. After the battle of Lutzen as he was riding over the field as was his custom, he came to the dead body of a Prussian who even in death seemed to press something closely against his breast. The Emperor approached and found it was the poor fellow's country's flag-in a voice tremulous with: emotion he said, "Poor lad! Brave lad You were worthy to have been born a P' renchman." He asked his officers to render the brave young man funeral honor.
He could praise fideli t y and cou r a~e v n ih an enemy.

Class Colors.
Someday the First Year Class will be having a meetir'lg at which they will organize as a class and establish themselves in the regular way as a class. • What do you think of t/lis in the way of colors? The first year adopt one
colo r an wear that as significant of yaurclass an color the next ear as a class select a ec "l nd ribbon and wear the t, a, thus signif yin th yea r and the third year add the thir and la t ribbon to th e class badge.
A r la ti n in classe and position would be 11 ,,. st d at whate , e r time th e colors would be worn which ould require no ex-plamation nor all forth any inquiries.
Thi will app l to th e enior class. Why not add th t hird colo r thus bringing this uniform cu tom in t o use in a yea r . The Second y ar la will consider the matter and no doubt fall in with the idea for next year, as t h ir two colors would now show their rank if th fir t and enior ears adopted the oth r . this meet any response from

·The importance of the laboratory and l a beratory method in the study of the socalled sc ie nces is no longer questioned 'f?y leading ed ucators, That we should study the obje c t rather than the text has long since b ee n recogni ze d as fundamental and that we . should r ega rd the book, at best , simply as an aid. lt is also important that first step work be carefully g mded in order that the observa• tions and inferences may be comprehensive, systematic, and accurate. Hence , it is desirable and essential that each student have a laboratory guide that his work may be somewhat independent of other members oJ tire class and that th<? teacher may be free to give individual assistance."

Autumn! Th ou hast come and gone; Thy withering forms we see; Th e dyin I ves now silent sleep Beneath the parent tree.
The win d t phers now we feel From o'er the w tern clime, , hich ems to say, "The Autumn's pasl Aud now tis winter time."
And as , e gate o'e r vale and bill, \\ here once 'twas verdant green \ e s till see nature putting forth A bea uty most serene.
Th e singing birds no longer hide In l eaves, from out our view; The leafless treetop stretches forth In scenes of somber hue.
Bold winter now has ushered in Its season of the year, With chilling storm and falling flake; Leaving Autumn in the rear.
Bnt yet a beauty we may see In snowcapped hill and mound, \Vbile Mother Earth with purest white Has carpeted the ground
O Winterl Thon art truly great; We love thy days so bright.
Bu\, as the other seasons, Thou Must also take thy flight.
Give way, bold Winter! stand thou back, Let glorious Spring appear With bud and leaf and flowerlets bloom, Bringing to us glad cheer.
0 Spring! bright joyous Spring! Thy beauty art sublime! With gladness thou does t fill the air
All bail! our glad springtime .
Thy lovely beauty now shine From every shady bower. And bill and valey sweet perfume Comes from thy blooming flowers .

Any one visiting the quiet and unpretending villiage of Peru will be lik e ly to e xpr ess surpri s e that the Stat e rmal Sch ol is located there. One of our mod e rn humorist said, '•Some persons are born grate, some achieve grateness and some have grateness hove upon them." I know of no reason why this may not be true of some places or things, only, perhaps in a different sense, except as to the condition named. Peru's major grateness was not born with it, nor have its acheivments verified the second condition of the humorists aphothem. Hence whatever of greatness it may have may be supposed to have been "hove" upon it. In this allusion I would not cast the slightest tinge of reflection upon the enterprise and unselfish generosity of its worthy citizens. It should not be forgotten that their free will offering of the school ground is said to have induced the Legislature to establisJi its one normal school there. And yet, in view of the enormous endowment of school land, Lelonging to the state, at • that time, one can scarcely concive that, sixty acres of land, practically unsuited to

As n e f r th e first time steps from a B. & I. railway car at the foot of 5th street le ading t the villiage, an impression of <lr e amin cs a nd ab nee of enterprise is all !Jut irr es tablc. But, railroad enterprise, ith e r f r n e ce s sity or economy invariably approches cities and viligages at the most unfavorable point of view. And in this instance, it must be admitted from necessity. These unfavorable impressions are soon forgotton as the vrsitor passes from the depot to the villiage, nestled among the embowered and vineclad hills and slopes, with most transcendent irregularity, an arbored villiage whose citizens are intelligent, moral, churchgoing people; within whose precincts liquor vendnig and its concomittant vices are not allowed and nature is unprcfaned by the seductive influences of fashion, art, archi, tecture, or street grades, save from the in_ exorable demands of necessity. At peace with the world and each other, except, 011 rare occasions usually brought about by e>c_ huberance of ambition or jealously, which expending itself subsides as harmless as the fog that sometimes overcasts the hills and vallies at night, to be dissolved and dispersed by the early sunbeams. These trivial surprises are speedly lost sight of, a.s on

\ hat an Audiance May Demand of a Speaker.
C . . J ON ES.
n audi nee a sembles to hear, or, being a sembled "ait to hear, what is to be said. It i expected that sometbino- will be offered which h a ll rep ay those present. Each person is willin a to gh e ten, fifteen , thirty. or sixty minute: of his time for wha~ he will ~ain in e ntertainnent or instruction. If that were all they could not yet hold the p vaker r espo n ible if the time were wasted , tml ess he were willing to speak. That is, if ~ speaker should be compelled to address an audience h~ would be under no obli ga ti o n to pl ease. But snch a case is hardly im ag inable. ¥..e may s ay that the speake r promised, tacitly it may be, that t_hose who listen shall have that placed before them which shall ·repay them for time and attention.
It is merly ten or sixty minutes of entertainment or instruction that is to be provid e d , and has be e n promised by the speaker, but the ten or sixty multiplied by the number of p e r so ns p i;esent. Eeach one has the
ri ght to ask, "Why h as h e ask I me t listen to him?' Th e r e are many h er , some for amusement, some thr ug h cu ri s ity, s in to criticise; but why h as h e a il ed m ?"' Th e answ~r must e f un in th e a ldr ss; it must contain som thing f r a h indivdual present, n o m a tt e r h w many o r how few there may be.
Th e th oug ht may be pleasing and i nstructive, or it may be in stn1 tivc without b eing pleasing. Th e aud ie n ce ann l cl ·mand that th e speak r pl ase a ll pre s ·nt, but in this d irect io n th re may be n n • requirem ent , which is , that the s ea k e r s h al l use courtesy t oward all. o audience whi h has assembl e d o f its own fr ee will ex 1 ccts discourtesy at the hands of tho se wh ad dr ess it; and whatever ' may be the topic di sc 1ss cl and whatever may be the bearing o f th e audience toward that subject, the spe a k r must be courteo us. The o li ga ti o n here, how e ve r, is evenly balanced, a s much being <lue to the speaker as to the audience he addresses.
An audience has the right to d ema nd that the speaker sha11 be sincere in the ground he may take and in his manner f sustaining his position. Otherwi se , he may, for some purpose of his own, deceive his hearers, bringing them to a vi ew of the subject entirely erroneous.
All these things may rightfully be demanded of a speaker, even before h e, has entered the room. At first sight there is an impression received from his manner of walking. This is followed by an anticipation of the sound of his voice. When he stands to speak, an ungainly att!tude is not expected of one who is capable of instructing us, for we would reluctantly acknowledge having received instruction, or even ~ntertainment, at the hand of one who is not ~apab1e of mastering himself. If a speaker carlessly allows bim ~e lf to gesticulate at random, the effect considered

nl a ery limited degree of reasoning an be in du lged in without the agency of artifi ial lanauaae. If I touch a hot stove I do not need lan a uage to enable me to beIi ve it best to not do so again; but as soon as I wish to enter upon any extended process of thinkina, I must have language in " hich to clothe my thoughts.
Incre as e in powers of thought and growth in lan a uage must take place simultaneously. s soon as we begin to descriminate closely w e of n ecess ity must invent new forms by "hich the results may be registered and be p e rm a nent. On the other hand, the more the development of a language, the greater is its capacity for adapt~ng itself to the diferent phas es of thought.
The English language par excellence is capable of being made the instrument of expressing various and minute shades of meaning. Being compo s ed of several elements. The Anglo-Saxon, Romaic, and, to a less degree, from several others, it contains a large number of words which were originally duplicated from the same ideas. Recognizing the fact that on this we had an ex-
ceeding richn ess of vocabulary, and nr,t wi s hin g ou r lan guage to b n 11mh •r • I with useless wo rd s, we hav e diff ·rcntial ·d th e ir severa l meanings, a nd s we ll that a not ed author, and stude nt f En,;li s h, l,;i s said .th at there a re now n o tw words i11 th· En g li s h language havin g exact ly the s arn • meanings .
By th e pro cess ju st giv n ou r la ngiiag- e ha s become a very e last ic one, a nd p ss c• ss c·s th e power t o eX JJr ess rnor let;.i ils and s ubtl e phases o f th ught, to J i ture 111nr tint s in shades f mean in g , than any olh 1· lang-uage t h a t man's unbound ·d in genuity has so far dev ise d.
In the English Ia ng na gc , th e n, we find th b es t vehicle for thou g ht; and, in it s s tudy we learn to use to its fulle s t capac ity thi s invaluable heritage.
However limit<.:d our capacity m ay b e f r persuing thought without th e a id f langu age , to a still grea ter extent arc "'e incap a ble of conveying thought s to o th ers without the ordinary means of communication. We may by means o f n a t11ral l auguage convey to others a knowl edge of 0 11r being angry, happy, in pain. ~nd ind eed many other states. Brutes may do as much. But only the simpler phases of thoughts can be thus conveyed. Langua ge proper alone can be used as an instrument for conveying the more complex id eas fr o m one mind to another.
Says Campayre, '•To know ones language is to know how to think. Th e extent of the vocabulary which yon have at your disposal corresponds to the abundance of the ideas which you possess. The new words added to those you already know are so many conquests of your mind over the unknown. On the otber hand, the propriety of the expression is equivelent to the accuracy of the thought. Finally the grammatical correctness which you know how to put into the construction of y0ur sentences is

Some educato rs claim that were childr n educated to s e and hear langua ge spok n and written correctly, they would use n incorr ect expressions, nnd that ther would n eed be no language teachin"'. In this, I think they have not consid e r ed that many of our e rrors are made n t because other have made them before us and we are ifu_ itators but because we misapply known law of language. Und e r the most favorable conditions. the teacher of language will find ample room for work.

10. Uniformity of Education . Closely a lJied to this branch of the work is the study of the lives and works of the great Educators of these nations. The mountain peaks which always tower above the plane of the mase, and yet are but the precursors of the people in the end. As the philosopher studies the great forces which in their ever continued unity and constancy of action have made possible the duration of the physical un·iverse, so we studi e d as forces the men who have stood out from the age in which they have lived and kept the tide of education broadening and deepening, sweeping outward and onwa.d.

WHA 'l., are the aim wher to ,, •hall bape_ t h conditions of our work in the chool room? Let me at tbis time m ntion but one with the hope that whate er may be said of it may apply with equal force to any other of the various purposes which might be mentioned-one upon which we all ca1 agree, viz: To prepare the child the better to live; to Jive with all the faculti s w berewi th be is endowed, enlivened and alert ready to use for the benefit both of himself and his fellows; to live as a beincr with an eternal destiny.
O ur success o r failure as teachers lies in taking the child as he comes to us, with an nt for . whi b w ar n n ible. and helpin9" inrr b tt r in life than w ul :l ha be u without u . It i rio-ht hr hat th trai rb.a theadvant· a~ . in ha\'in•,,. learn d throu•rh in truction. b n·ati n. and b) practice under criti i m what· nditi n < r favorabl for doing- thi cure them. Exp rieu e may a.me kuowl do- and kill, but it r quir a mu h l u••er time. while tb.e dan.rer f makin°· blunder fatal to the future of both t a IPr and hild i att~ndant upon every m , .

From tbi it follow that th.e mor trikin<:r th failure the bi•rner tlJe fool. If w accept thi definition , it i quite po . ible for the fini h d product of our cboob to be 1 s :btted for li\ irw than one ,, bo e train in« lla been outside th chool room. L t me m ntion, too. that to be fitted to live does not mean a traininrr whereby to o-et a lh lihood, in the sense of ha incr a trade or a profe ion, althou<rb the one may be tb re ult of the other.
