Job Work TEACHERS’ INSTITUTE The Sherman county teachers’ institute began its tfhnual session at the high school building in Loup City, Aug. 24. The enrollment had reached 104 by noon Tuesday and the pros pects are good for the largest at tendance ever had in Sherman county. A lively interest is mani fested by the teachers, and much use is being made of outline books in noting the practical points pre sented by the corts of instructors. Such a manifestation of interest is not only inspiring to the teaching force but also gratifying to our superintendent. Mr. Currier is to be congratulated in securing so able a body of instructors during this busy institute season. Supt. J. H. Beveridge of Coun cil Bluffs, has charge of arithme tic, grammar and composition, and school management. He presents these subjects in an interesting and practical manner, interspers ing his lectures with just enough humor to keep the machinery of the school room in good running order. Supt. Geo. <E. Martin of Ne braska City, is instructor in read ing, model work, history and civics, geography and agriculture. Mr. Martin is an earnest speaker whose lectures are an inspiration to every teacher. Miss Alice J. Hennigan of Lin coln has charge of the primary work,industrial work and primary writing. She has a quiet, attrac tive manner which can not fail' to make her popular among the little folks as well as with older persons. Miss Henigan’s work is all practi cal and workable. Her methods in primary writing are unusually valuable to the teachers of the lower grades. Boelus, Nebraska G. G.

A excellent opportunity to buy, a fine large farm reasonably. R. H. MATHEW, Referee THE HOME TOWH (By Nels Darling) President Wilson, in an article in the July numberof the World’s Work, makes this statement—“If America discourages the locality, the community, the self contained towns, she will kill the nation.” Many of these self-contained towns are losing in population, are going backward, while the great cities are growing by leaps and bounds. In the article above referred to, President Wilson adds — “You know that the vitality of America consists of. Its vitality does not lie in New York, nor in Chicago, it will never be sapped by any thing that happens in Saint Louis. Nearly every city, great and small, every town large and little, sprang into existence as a trading center, as a place for the exchange of commodies and thus became, not only the commercial, but the social center of the people of the country tributary to it. When a town becomes a great city, it ceases to furnish to the people of the adjacent country the social side of their lives, for the art of being a good neighbor is a lost one- with a majority of the people in the large commercial centers. The automobile, the interurban, the long distance telephone are all bringingthe large cities nearer and nearer to an ever increasing number of people. These great centers have in them a lure for the folks of the smaller communi ties, of the less pretentions trad ing points. The great city is a vortex into which is drawn the very life blood of our nation. People who cannot go to it to make their homes are wont to like to trade with its stores. Human nature is very much the same the world over. Distance lends en chantment. Kansiis City likes to shop in Chicago, while Chicago folks are inclined to buy more or less from the stores in New York, and many a woman purchases gowns in Paris which can be du plicated in staid old Philadelphia for less money. My next article will give some interesting figures. I will have something to say regarding the the towns that will hold their own, and will grow and continue to be potent factors in the life of the people in and around them.
