We thus see it was at the 1-arly“ age of seventeen years that he; began a line of work which was 1 calculated to better prepa1'1- him ' 1 for future usefulness. Two years were spent in this «capacity, wl1en. feeling the need ‘of better preparation, and desir- ging to indulge his natural taste ifor study, he decided to enter 3the Sus11uel1anna Seminary as both student and teacher. The need of money again led to his teaching the following year at Chenango Forks. VVhile there his home was witl1 Mr. and Mrs. James H. Porter whose friendship at that time and in in- tervening years has been most cordial and helpful. In 1871? he came to Ionia. where fo1' a year and a half he conducted a private school.

The time is coming when it will be discred- itable to a farmer not to belong to some industrial association. THE V1s1To1c has had some things about out-door work for health. Let me give you some of my experience. My he-alth failed partially in my youth and left me with general nervous de- bility. I was educated for a pro- fession. but I went on to my fath- er‘s farm, and the most of the time since I have spent i11 some out-door business. As the re- sult. I have kept my general -health good and prolonged my life to the age of seventy. Per- manent indoor business would probably have laid me in the grave long ago. I have experi- enced that there is great n1edici- nal power in open air work. It is all that is wanted to build up many 21- half-broken down man. I wish you would 21-dvise fariners to bring up their d21ughter.s‘ to work out of doors. It would give us; strong-bo1lie1l. licalthy. 1-.111.-1'g1-tic} women. and the 1not111-rs of 21 vig- - orous race. \Vorl1' in the pure air of heaven is the absolutely necessziry thing to make liealthy. forceful men 2111d won11.-11. and give us "paradise restored." I think that the ambition to be athletes will by and by cause many men to want to be farmers. The development that the indus- trial associations are making among the working classes will make farming more popular with educated men. The farm is the best place in the world for cul- tured men—and women, too. to do thinking in. and they are go- ing to like it for this reason.more and more. I think one of the greatest troubles with farmers is, that they don't do thinking enough. For want of it their hands don’t accomplish so much. their hands don't accumulate so fast. and labor isn‘t so pleasant as it might be. That is good counsel in our ritual: "Add dig- nity to labor.” and one way to do so is by giving thought to it. Our schools are improving. but they are a long way from the time when all the teachers, or a majority of them. will train the boys and girls to be vigorous. in- dependent thinkers. This is the beginning and the end of educa- tion. The cramming notion is mostly prevalent yet. What is the use in putting girls and boys to committing so much to memo- ry as is done in the schools? A large part of it they can never make any use of. and a large part they will forget. Why isn't it better to train them to commit perfectly to memory the essen- tial things. and to understand perfectly everything they learn— to analyze and reason well? Let them have a large range of read- ing and study, but don’t make them burden theirmemories with ISITOZR. I (7111-2111, 111111-., ALLEGAN. March l3.—En.V1s— ITOR: The session of Alleg-an“ County Council. held at Watson March 3. was too pleasant and profitable a meeting to let pass without a little notice from me. which you will please give a lit- tle space for In your paper. The weather was quite unfa- vorable. being both cold and stormy. but notwithstanding about 130 were in attendance. and a very enjoyable time we had. The song and recitations from the very young folks were much en- joyed. and the music of the choir and orchestra won m11ch praise and helped to lighten the heavier essays and discussions. The address of welcome by Homer Leggett was a fine pro- duction. and was delivered ex- tempore. He is quite young. but the Grange has in him a fine Workman and helper. The re- sponse by Bro. Stockwell was well received; in fact everything was first-class. and the program nicely responded to. Bro. A. T.

Tl1e question is being consid- ered whether it is good policy for the state of Michigan to 21p- propriate money for the purpose of entertaining the members of a national organization whenever its annual meeting shall be ap pointed within its borders. Mem- bers of the Grand Army are 21sk- i11g that S-.'1().000 be appropaiated l)y the state 1111- such a purpose. The ‘Presbyterian General As- sembly will also meet in Detroit. the coming summer. with 111-111- gations of prominent divines 211111- laymen from all points of the Union and from foreign la111ls. There are likely 111 be other na- tional organization meetings with- M in the limits of the state. which: might with equal propriety ask for money to enable them to en- tertain the strangers wit-hin their gates. The state of California did indeed appropriate $10,000 toward the entertainment of the National Grange in Sacramento in 1889: but the year before. Lan- sing and the members of the Or- der in the state. managed to make the delegations from abroad feel quite at home here during their stay. and they left with quite as good an opinion of the state as though they had been banqueted. marched under arches and bunt- ing and treated Ste 21 "sound of revelry by night.” It may be argued that a spirit of loyalty to the nations defend- ers ought to inspire the state with generous feelings. and that $50,- 000 is the proper figure to meas- ure this appreciation. Tne na- tional government has already provided the money considera- tion for soldiers through the pen- sions, which are being constantly increased, so that there is scarce- ly a soldier living, but is bounti- fully provided for by this provi- sion of government. The sum asked for the Nation- al Encampment at Detroit Would reflect very little honor upon the state at large, but would rather reflect the slick 1111-thods of De- troit workers for the wherewithal to fix up for their show. The state has its own military service to provide for. into which a good deal of "horse play" is projected, quite sutficient. ordinary people would think. for the honor of the service. If any other "Encamp- ment" or "Session" or “Assem- bly” were asking for an appro- priation in any city in the inte- rior of the state, Detroit papers w11uld be objecting. as the Visitor is now objecting. and the major- ity of people would rate their reasoning as sound. <-¢ -- The World’s Fair. Every resident of Michigan is interested in the success of this great enterprise. and is doubtless 1leter1nining to be one. of the many millions who will be pres- ent at so1ne time during its con- tinuance. Every one also is anx- ious that our state shall be fit- tingly recognized and appear as finely decorated and domiciled as any of the sisterhood of states. To do so will require money. and the state fortunately has at its disposal in the treasury of the general government a fund from which it can appropriate such an amount as will make a creditable showing in the great exhibition. Michigan is out of debt and can afford extravagance on occasion. It has a credit of nearly half a million dollars in Uncle Sam's bank. and if it should use half of it to “show off" before the great congregation of nations. it could be excused for the lavish expen- diture. Everybody who goes will buy a new suit of clothes before they start. and M11.-higan ought to "dress up" as well as the rest and be there in season. It may be able to squeeze into the par- quet with $100,000, but ought to double that so as to be able to take one of the highest seats in the synagogue. _._._.___,,>, Waverly Juvenile Grange No. 1.

He thought the VISIT- OR should be sustained and fin- ally wound up by a motion that the W. Master be said canvasser, and it was carried.

County Council. ners. feeling that we have shown them to be a public necessity. and proceed to the grading of our district schools. This may appear to be a difficult matter to the uniniatiated. but I am assiir- ed that it is not. except. in the less scholars. where it sometimes puzzles the teachers to make supply of material. To assist in extreme cases like this. the services of the superin- tendent becomes an absolute ne- -pleases the teacher with 1 very small schools of seven or‘ eight grades from such a limited 1 The methods by which those to whom I refer have obtained their high coirimissions. would not obtain under the old regime. ()n the other hand people have stated in my presence. that teachers in the prime of their lives. with long records as suc- cessful teachers. were barrcdout under the new rules. Then it is said that an occasional circuni- stance occurs by which some person. with a superabundance of native modesty and naturally diffident and a poor hand at guessing conundrums. has failed to get inside the flag. Perhaps they were made an example of. to teach their associates to "Be bold. be bold!" Teachers should be able to work out simple problems, like the following, before attempting to teach even a back woods dis- trict school. for they are prob- lems in real, every day life and yet they say they have puzzledi many a would be pedagogue and ' perhaps have caused some to be , distanced in the race: 1 Two persons purchased ul dressed hog weighing ‘_’l)(l pounds 1 for $10. Said one to the other. Iwill take my share from thei hind quarters and will allow you six cents per pound. and you, may take your five dollars worth from the fore quarters. at four cents. Agreed. said the other. How many pounds should each have? Suppose your certificate de pended on a correct answer to this simple problem. which no doubta majority of those pre- sent have already figured out in their heads and got, it’ not the correct answer. at least very near it. Would you feel like robbing the poor superintendent of schools of his hard earned sal- ary, just because you could not divide a. 200 pound porker? Another: The angle of retice- tion being equal to the angle of incidence, at What angle should a boy standing in the door in the center of a side of a square hold a pistol so the bullet. reflecting from one wall to the other. should return to the point where the aim was taken? Easy in theory. but hard to practice: for the proof is liable to knock out an eye: that is if you got the correct answer. Hows this for spring examination, about house clean- ing time‘? A cistern ten feet deep is six- teen feet across the bottom. and the cover is four feet square. Supposing this cistern is one- t-hird full of dirty water. how long will it take a boy thirteen years old to dip out the water. using apole 11 feet long and a bucket holding 3.‘; gallons? These problems are not sup- cessity. That instances like this sometimes occur is no faultof the system. nor of the superinten- dent. but is usually attributed to the penurious habits of the patrons oftlie schoolsthemselves. l*1orohvious reasons these diffi- culties usually occur in wealthy districts. The beiielits from the system of grading schools. made possi ble only by the efforts of the county superintendent. may seem to be obscure to many. but I will only mention a single one. illustrate: A boy. in the old way. might commence going to school when he was five years of age and stay till he was old enough to elope with the schoolina'ain. and not have any means of toll ing when he had gone long eiioiigli. Now he starts in at the first guide. exliibits his monthly ex- amination curds marked 97. out iof a possible 100: aiinouiiccs. from time to time. that he has been promoted from grade to grade and at twelve he graduates and is ready to take his place where? \\"hy. in the filth grade in the union school. There he passes from grade to grade and after graduatiiig from thence he is prepared to enter‘- the university from which he. if he has enough of common sense left, may yet learn to be a useful citizen. If. after this. he will be abusiness man he must needs attend a business college. He can possibly yet learn to be a civil engineer, or he may yet get to be a professional man by learn- ing the special trade just as the old boys did when grading was not heard of. For fear that I may not have made it plain that grading is a positive benefit and worth the small tax per capita that I will shortly show that the whole bus- iness costs. I will give another illustration of its benefits. I will refer you to oi.ir county pa- pers. where reports from Cheshire and Pine Plains and all over our beautiful county fur- nish the interesting statements that Edie Biggs and Sammy Gaminel stood 87 in the eighth grade and Pearlie Robbins and Ina Bowersox were at the head of the 5th grade. "Tl1irdly.“ as the minister used to say. the duty of the superiiitendeiit is to visit the 240 or so schools in the county. If the superintendent does 110 other good than to tell each teacher that she has the most orderly. the brightest and altogether the most lovable school in the coun- ty; and to tell the scholars that they have only to cherish, rpo I allowed the great privilege of be- ing her pupils. and they will speedily grow to be great men like himself. George Washing- ton. Abraham Lincoln. Grover Cleveland. Napoleon Bonaparte and the like: and these bright. dear. little girls. they will soon be strongniinded. splendid ladies like their teacher. VictoriaWood - hull. Susan B. Anthony. .\‘Irs. Hazlitt. Adeline Patti and a great many other noted women. ‘ whose names occur to the super- intendent. but whom the little girls never heard of. All this and don't fool the kids who. after he is gone. remark that the old gcnt thinks that he is stuifing some- body. Further the supcrintendent can suggest. if he wislies. to the teaclier. that the kinds of text hooks used in her school are obsolete. out of date. back num- hers. and urge lu-1' to iuakc tha- lives of the school board niis<-r- ahlc until they adopt new and modern publications. This causes a lluttcr of pleas- urahlc ('X(:itciii(!1it among patrons of the school and they gladly part with the small por— i We will now leave the exanii- . tion of their large surplus of lshekels necessary to make the ;.desii'ed change. But some peo- ‘ple will growl and say that the ‘; superintendent stands in with the publishers. But any one who will stop to think will know that ithe ridiculously low price of ' chool books precludes the pos- isibility of any such division of ‘ithe spoils. Then the superintendent can ifurther suggest to the teacher ithat pure air brings a useful }commodity in a schoolroom; the iidirector should place on the sill l()f each window a cleat three linches wide so the windows could be raised a triile to allord venti- 1 lation and not allow a particle of wind to strike the pupils. And Miss Brown. the school board in itliis wealthy district should be ‘. ashamed of tliemselvcs that they ’.do not provide you with a few i conveniences such asa dictionary, ‘iglobe. maps. organ. physiologi- ‘.cal chart. rulers. square and lcompass. pointers. clock. pokers. ietc.. etc. Then the most important part ,of the siiperiiitendenfs duty and lithe one for which we should be lithe most thankful is the rise in 1value of teachers‘ services since lthe creation of the ofiice. The ivalue of anything is the price it iwill bring in market. ‘from the service now reiidered lby some tca.cliei's who L‘.()lT1lll'¢lll(1i tho ‘who. undcr the old style. used to ‘build their own tires. and sweep their own houses and teach every ‘other Sa1,ui'day for ten shillings in week. must have bet-ii poor in- deed.

Just how long this speech or tra- ditional period lasted 1 have been unable to‘ascert.ain. Up to the building of the Tower of Babel the people were of one speech. and we all know the tradition that accounts for so many lan- guages. I have often wondered what were the feelings of those people when their tongues were confused. VVith whatconsutnniatc. consternation each must have babel there must have been! I do not understand that an entirely different and distinct language was given each man. but that each was made incom- preheusive of the others’ sounds. They wandered near and far. spreading all over the world: some to the warmer regions, and others -to the colder north, again going through those same (level- opments of evolving a language that their ancestors did so many years before. Historians attribute differences of tongues as well as physique to climate; the rugged- ness and rigor of the colder cli- . mates manifesting themselves in harsh. rough sounds, while the warmer, sunny climates create a smooth, liquid sounding lan- guage. History was simply a verbal or oral account of things handed down from one generation to an- other. and must: of necessity be uncertain and contradictory. Clubs.

Fashion has decreed that union undergarments and princess (lresscs arc the thing. and many who have heretofore dressed in anything but a scnsiblc and healthful way are now doing so. The outfits of many brides which are supposed to be in tho l.itest style are both sensible and comfortable as well as pretty. The time was once. and not a very great many years ago either, when dress-reforni gar- ments were ridiculed and all who wore them regarded as cranks and fanatics. We are thankful that day is past and that now we are free to dress as sensibly as we please. Beauty and symme- try have been combined with common sense, and the result is most gratifying. It is a deplorable fact that trains are once more coming in- to favor. would that they were banished forever. The girl of today is ever busy, and the demands on her time are many and varied. If she has en- tered the business world she has learned that she must dress in a simple, comfortable manner if she wishes to keep well and make the most of herself. We are glad to see the im- provement in this direction for there is need enough of it. A l .’l \ ‘,2. l A ‘I L I 7 ._ ., l pl 1! I 4 «i . h V 7! II APRIL 1,1891. Do you. want the BUYERS GUIDE?
