Re freshments were served after which the boys donned aprons and showed their skill at washing and wiping dishes. Of course, in order to keep up in the race for new ideas, our schools and all other schools should adopt the newest methods in penmanship, but we believe it would also be a good idea to devote at least a quarter hour each day to the development of the art of writing legibly as described and ad vocated in the nearly obsolete Spencer ian system. In these modern days the idea that a pupil must first know the correct form of a written character ere he can reproduce it seems to have been lost sight of. I wish some of our near graduates of today could see some of the notes little Maggie Stack used to slip across the aisle to me. When she was 11 years old she could furnish a page of copy that would compare favorably with the faultlessly executed legends that adorned the top of our copy book pages.—Clay County Sun.
