Sutton ana1 his family left Tues day n'ght for Orrenfield, Iowa, where they will make their future home. Mr. Sutton was among the early settleri. to this county and has been a resident of Harrison for several years. Himself and family have many frisr.d; hre that re gret their departure and wish them suc cess add happiness in their new home. Mr. Sutton has been a reader of the pKKf-Joi.'KNAL for years and it will lie a weekly visitor at his Iowa home so that he can be kept posted on the happenings in this vicinity. Mrs. Belle Dunn entertained the people of Harrison lust Saturday evening at t he Harrison House with a musical program rendered by her class, which consists of about fifteen scholars. The large dinning room in which the entertainment was given, was crowded and the program was highly praised. When Mrs. Dunn started her class very few of the scholars could read music and now they are able H read and execute readily. The way in which the program was rendered last Saturday night shows very plain that Mrs. Dunn is an excellent music teacher. After the entertainment an hour or so was spent in dancing. The people of Harrison and vicinity hope that they shall soon have the pleasure of hearing an other entertainment by these people.

Several of Tlie Signal's.. ri'- already expressed with iiope, usd tlie ex pectation, that J. L. McBrieo, ;t be pre sent S'jite lieputy Siierinteiident, would be nominated for State Superintendent, to succeed his present chief. State Super intendent Fowler, who is serving his sec ond term and who will not be acamlidate far re-election. The Signal has rattier ta!:en this for granted for various reasoos which it may be timely to recount. Mr. Mcltrien lias been Mr. Fowler's deputy for the pa-st four years and has shown such ability and such zeal and untiring industry in tlie discharge of the duties of the ofli'-e that, w far a The Signal can learn, no man in the state has any notion of contesting with Mr. McBrieo for the nomination. These facts constitute tlie large and prominent reasons for the be lief that the republican state convention will nominate Mr. McBrien by acclama tion. If Uie people of the state needed any endorsement of Mr. McBrien beyond their own knowledge of him and his work for the past three years the.y would have it in the tact that he was the regard and that his woik lias the approval of his chief. It is not questioned by any one in the state thai Mr. Fowler has proved the most capable, the shrewdest and the most successful Slate Superintendent tlie slate lias ever had. He has planned great educational campaigns and lias ex ecuted them with great brilliancy. The eople of the state have wondered how such a small oOice force as the Slate Superintendent has can turn out so much work, work of the right sort and ail so carefully and properly done. Therefore, when a man like Mr. Fow ler chooses a man forhischief lieutenant, and confirms the choice by a second ap iointment, it is a very grent compliment. Mr, McBrien has received this compl -ment. Mr McBrien's work as Deputy Sta'e Superintendent has called him to all pnrt'i nf the state during the past three vears He lias a Mi nded, in his official cspacitv, teachers' associations, teachers' institutes, junior normals and mnny other gatherings of teachers, has delivrr ed lectures, high school commencement oratinsand other public nddresses on educational matters. He has assisted in the work of securing teachers for fhe school in the western part of the state. Scarcely a week pusses that The Signal's exchanges do not nontain commendatory paragraphs about a visit, from Mr. Mr Brien to some school or educational gathering in their section. His work and bis addresses nre always highly commended, and (here is every reason to believe that the people of the state de sire him to be the next Stale Siierii.lend ent. since the third term notion will pn vent. the re-nomimUion of Mr. Fnw'er. It may also lie timeh to recall i few incidents in Mr. McBrien's career that The Signal had occasion to recount some vears ago. He is the son of a veteran of the civil war, which may account in part for tlte vigorous patriotism to which he sooften gives utterance. He was born and reared on a farm. His parents were poor and it was only through great sac rifice on their part, as well as upon his own, that thev were able to assist, him in gaining an education. How true it, is that educations that have been fought for are most appreciated and used to the liest advantage. Deciding to make teaching hie life work, Mr. McBrien first npent four years teaching in the country and village schools of Johnson county, Nebraska. Then for four years he was county sup- intenrient of that county. Then for four years he was Dean of Orleans College. Then for four years he was Superintend ent of the 0ity Schools of Geneva, re signing this place to accept the appoint ment of Deputy State Superintendent, tendered him by Mr. Fowler. Every thing seems to run with Mr. McBrien in four year periods. When he completes his present term he will have served four vars ns Deputy Sute Superintendent, and if the hoes of his friends are realized he will then step up to four years as 8tale Superintendent. Mr. McBrien is a graduate of the Sterl ing High School,. He studied at Camp bell Normal University, Lincoln Normal University, and the State University. He holds a professional life certificate ns a teacher in this state. In 1HU1 he was elected president of tlie Nebraska State Teachers' Association. The teachers of the state will gather a thousand or more strong at Lincoln in a few day to hold their annual meeting and they will doubtless do as they have done In the past, discuss earnestly men as well as measures. They have a vita Interest In the office or the State Super intendent, it is The Signal's belief that a nearly unanimous oii' iment will pre vail in favor of Mr. McBrien to succeed Mr. Fowler. Nextyeurisa presidential year and therefore all convention will probably be held early, and political dii cussions are more timely now than they otherwise might he.

Old writers in mentioning birch rocs seldom failed to say solemnly hat they were useful to grow branches with which to give boys 'hrashlngs. Turner regards the sup ily of "flexible, rendent branches" for mrposes of punishment as the chief ncrit of the tree. Coles also based his sstimate of the birch chiefly on Its ise In the supply of rods as instru ments of puniahmunt, for he writes: "The civil uses whereunto the birch erveth are many; as, for the punish nent of children, both at home and at tchool; for it hath an admirable In luence upon them to quiet them when hey are out of order, and, therefore, lome call It make-peace." In ancient Rome the fasces of the lictors, with which they cleared the way for the magistrates, were formed with rods f birch, and their Influence wag usu ally sufficient to Insure a rapid dls lerslon of men assembled where they ould Impede the passage of the ad ministrators of the law. From that lrr.e to within a comparatively recent period tho birchen rod was regarded w one of the most Important deter ents of juvsnilo depravity. Tin Soldier.
