HIGH-SCHOOL NOTES GF
CONSIDERABLE INTEREST
Rev. Lew Wallace Cade will preach
the sermon to the graduates of the
high school on Sunday evening, May
21, next.
At an election among the members
of the senior class Mr. Matthew
Herold was selected to deliver Cue
salutatory and Mr. John Falter the
valedictory at the commencement ex
ercises, May 25th.
Supt. Abbott has Invited Senator
Hitchcock to deliver the address to
the graduating class on commence
ment night. The senator hns not yet
replied to tho Invitation, but It Is
hoped that his numerous duties may
permit him to comply.
The high school debating squad,
although selected, the nanus are not
yet given out, will meet the South
Omaha team In two weeks, at that
place. The question for discussion
being: "Resolved, That the policy of
tho United States In maintaining the
navy In Its present efficiency Is pref
erable to substantially Increasing It."
It Is to be regretted that Superln
tendent Abbott may find it necessary
to appear in the county court with
complaints against two or more
vicious boys, who, It appears, prefer
to attend school at Kearney, than to
comply with the reasonable rules of
the Plattsmouth schools.

BhVERIDGE FIRES
OPENING GUN
fight for Approval of Reciproc
ity Treaty Begins in Senate.
VITAL P.11NCIFLE IS INVOLVED.
Details, Indiana Senator Says, Are of
Little Significance and Can Be Ad
Justed in Light of Future Experi
ence Mistakes Easily Corrected.
Washington, Feb. 10. The first gun
In the congressional battle over Cana
dian reciprocity was fired in the sen
Ite. Senator Beveridge (Ind.), an insur
gent, was the marksman, and he lined
up on the side of the administration.
He did not make a pretense of repre
senting others of the progressive Re
publican camp.
Beveridge welcomed the compact as
the first concrete evidence of the es
tablishment of such relations with
Canada as, he thought, the United
States would maintain with a country
so closely adjoined physically and
with a people so intimately allied
with Americans In kinship and inter
est. Contending for the importance
of the principle involved, he urged the
necessity for prompt and decided ac
tion. Tho details, he said, were of com
paratively Utile significance and
might well bo left to future adjust
ment. Friendship Instead of Hostility.
"Shall the United States and Canada
begin the policy of mutual trade con
cessions and commercial friendliness?
Or shall we make permanent the pol
icy of trade obstruction and commer
cial hostility between the countries?"
Thus asking, Beveridge said thusr
were the real questions which must
be answered In dealing with the reclr
rocal agreement. His general po
sltion was then announced as follows:
"If some think that the agreement
Is not all that it should be because
of the treatment of a few articles, the
answer is that even if this objection Is
sound ns to those few details, yet It
is negligible when compared with the
Importance of getting this great na
tional policy established.
Mistakes Easily Corrected.
"If the agreement Is enacted Into
law and proves beneficial to the nation
as a whole, It Is certain to be extend
ed tis time goes on and the two peo
ples experience Its good effect If, on
the other hand, It should prove harm
ful to the nation as a whole it coul
be repealed quickly.
"We do not need to protect our poo
pie from the Canadian people. Whnt
we need Is to make It easier for Can
ada to freely buy from us the thintra
It needs and that we produce. What
wo need Is to make It easy for our
people to buy from Canada tVos
things which our people need Instead
of making It hard for them to do so."
Argument was then presented to
show that the natural resources of
Canada nilirht be depended on to re
duce the cort of living In this country
and to replenish the loss suffered by
the premature destruction of Amer
lean resources.
WILSON REPLIES TO GRANGE
Secretary of Agriculture Answers Ac
gument Against Reciprocity.
Washington, Feb. 10 "The pending
reciprocity treaty with Canada will
go some distance towards meeting the
demands of the people ut the las
electiou without Interfering with the
policy of protection as applied to the
whole world." This Is the conclusion
of James Wilson, secretary of agricul
turel. in an answer on behalf of the
Taft administration to the Nationa
Grange's declared opposition to the
proposed agreement.
mo answer is in tne form or nn
open letter made public, addressed to
the legislative committee of the Na
tional Grange, Concord, N. II.
Sseretury Wilson argues that th
cost of production In the United
States snd Canada Is more nearly
Identical than It is between the Unit
ed States and any other country, tha
the sama difT.cultlea with regard to
farm labor exist on boh sides of the
Internationa! line and that Canadla
and Amorlran farming methods are
virtually the same.

01 SUGGESTIONS ON
NATTER OF SCHOOL LAWS
If the Nebraska school men want
to benefit our public schools they
should recommend some such laws as.
these:
Making it a crime punishable by
Imprisonment for any teacher, prln-
Ipal, superintendent, or school board
to confine any school child continu
ously in one seat in one room for a
period to exceed two hours at one
time, without "recess" or dismissal,
no matter what the age of the child
Is.
Prohibiting football and other
strenuous athletics which give the
most vigorous children ell the exer
cises while the weaker ones, who
need exercise most, sit by and rah
rah! Compelling more face to face,
mouth to ear, instruction and less ex
aminations,, tests, tablet and pencil,
nerve-killing, tomfoolery which
checks originality, confuses the child
and wastes time which 6hould be
spent in encouraging the child to
think.
Less attention to individual drink
ing cups and more to Individuality.
Compelling school courses to be
arranged for the benefit of all pupils,
not the one or two per cent who final
ly reach the State University.
Compelling Bchool books, school
arrangements and courses of study
to be gotten up for the convenience
and benefit of the pupils and not for
the benefit of the teacher.
Arranging the teaching of mathe
matics so that puzzles are excluded,
and basing the course on the average
person not on the superior knowl
edge of some Boston freak.
Arranging the study of history so it
will give the child some knowledge
of peoples and damllttle of kings and
politicians.
