1'renlilont Hlroun thoii introduced
William Hnwloy Smith of Poorla , Illin-
nolftVh6io subject Won "Lltornturo in
the Public Schools. " Ho wan greeted
with n duo ovation when ho made his
appearance on the platform and Immed
iately launched into the dlsdustUon of
his mibjoot with the following forceful
Htittuuiout : "Litornturo inn record of the
oxporlouooH nud the Irtcnlb of hnmniilty
thnt nro of stilHclent vnlue to nmlco them
worthy of hulng perpetuated ; nnd it in
the business of teaching of Htornturo to
mnko the experiences nnd the idonlH of
huu'inutty ' to como , hotter tlinn the ex
periences nud the idonls of humanity
that has boon. " With thia an n basis
for liiH talk ho made nu address that nu-
questionably sank deep Into the hearts
of his hoarura , whoso ideas regarding
the touching of literature In the public
schools undoubtedly Hufforod a radical
change , to the mutual Improvement of
tvauhorri nud pupils. His idea was not
that children /Uiould bo converted into
walking oyolopodiiw , but that they
Mould1 booouio men nud women nud
thnt the teaching of literature shouldy
not ho confluod to the high school course
hut thnt it should follow through nil
the grades nud the love of good reading
should lie onrly instilled into the honrtfl
of the ohildron. lie orontod n profound
nnd lasting impression.
Mr. Smith is n humorist , hut not ono
of [ the light nhd nousotislonl sort ; his
humor ia Hashing , Bolntlllntiug , nud in-
trodncofl , foltpws and permeates thoughts
of p'rofdaud depth nnd logio. Ho is nu
adopt nt creating d laugh mid yet when
tiio laugh in over some thought of value
remains that years' cannot efface. Ho
dollgiits liis hearers niidjyot instructs
thoroughly nnd permanently. Ho la n
pVaotioal educator , but one does not
liood to bo nu educator to take n deep
interest in his lectures. Mr. Smith hud
addressed Norfolk audiences several
Union Ih the past nnd it in to bo hoped
tlint his acquaintance with Norfolk nnd
Norfolk people IH but just begun.
Tiio evening closed with nuothor piano
selection by the four ladles from the
Wnyno college.
Much credit for the success of the
mooting just closed is duo to the re-
tlrlhg president , Prof. W. G. Hirons of
Pierce , who made n model presiding
officer nud handled complex questions
with skill besides attending to the de
tails couiiug before him with grace and
dispatch. Other oillcera nud commit
tees of the association were also given
unstinted credit for the very onjoynbh1
session.
Suporiutoudont O'Connor of this city ,
,
Superintendent Gruui of Madison nnd
the teachers of tno Norfolk schools
worked enthusiastically , untiringly nud
energetically thnt the association might
ho n creditnblo one iu point of interest
nud attendance. The visiting teachers
took deep Interest iu the exhibit of
school work nnd many of them asked
for ( specimens to tnko homo nud show
their pupils.
The citizens , nud especially the busi-
ness men , expressed n hearty npprooin-
tion tlmttho ; session had boen'hold here ,
bringing n flue , clean class of people
hero for nlmost n week. As n matter of
business they were n great advnutngo to
the town , 'many ' of thorn-having comejlib-
orally supplied with money with which
to do shopping , nnd n conservative busl- i
nosM mnu estimated thnt they had or
ponded not loss than $3,000 during
their visit nnd was of the belief that
they will come again and bring others.
The people of the city were uniformly
accommodating nnd courteous , many of
them going out of.their way to oblige
the visitors. Oue or two instances
might bo cited where they were not 1
but one worthy example of courtesy
might bo given in thnt of Burt Mnpes
who snrroudored his homo entirely to
too
the use of the teachers without charge ;
nndn goodly olnb found comfortable
lodging there , while he boarded nt the
hotel , his wife being absent in Omaha.

A Spring Warning.
Look out for n visit from the nnunn
fakirs who sell groceries "direct to th
farmers" from n "big" Chicago house
They nlwnya stnrt the order nt augur n
n low price , -1 cents in this case , but i
you order uothiug else your sugar neve
conies , nud if yon do not order ouong
other stuff with your sngnr your ordo
is promptly torn up. However , if yo
buy n nice lot of ten nt 80 or 90 ceuts
and n nice lot of coffee nt15 centsspices
bolting powder , extracts , etc. , on whic
they double the cost price in every in
stance , yon get your goods. Yon got
saviug of about 05 cents on your sugar
you pay this back on the first two dollar
worth of other items and from thou o * >
yon are fixing yourself so you will
feel good until the whole bill of goi < N it
gone nud forgotten. They are high pr o
men , selling n limited quantity of gouiin ,
drawing big salaries nnd paying high
expenses besides livery hire , they
make it nil off of you , dear friend , the
minute yon listen to tholr lying , oily
tongues. The editor of the Republican
has nn accurate knowledge of groceries
from Actual experience iu handling
them and advises fnrmers to liny of
homo merchants , not becnuso of their
being advertisers possibly now , but he-
cauBO of it being money in the farmers'
pockets. The locnl grocer would cheer
fully duplicate the bill with better
goods nt the same price or the same
goods nt n lower ouo as ho makes his
good profits always off of the thlugti
you pay a still higher price for when
you touch 45 cent coffee nnd 80 centj
teas. Then he only asks his money back
nud a slight margin when ho weights
np sugnr thnt costs always too much
wo think , but a whole lot too much if
wo buy n high priced lot of stuff to save
about 05 cents on a sack. These folks
nro doiug business in northern Iowa
nnd will bo in Nebraska in n short
time , no doubt. Wnyne Republican.

A recent iesuo of the Madison Mail
offers the following corrections nnd nd-
ditions i to the item recently published
by 1 THE NEWS concerning George Hnst-
iiigs of thnt city :
"George B. Hustings , the young
Spanish soldier who accompanied Com
pany F on its return from the Philip-
"ies , recently visited Norfolk , and the
. .ourorK NEWS in chronicliug that fact
, ittuoug other things , thnt he 'do-
ortea the cause of his country. ' While
his statement was not so intended , it
oes the bravo little Spaniard injustice.
The fnots of the case nre thnt at the
ime of the capture of Manila nud its
ofenscs , George wns a member of the
Spanish garrison at Onlooonn , n few
miles from the city. When this body
f'troops ' was brought to Manila , young
iouito , George's real nnmo , was iu a

mppeued nt n time when Spain hnd no

except in his refusal of repatriation ,

Seorgo was always on the firing line ,
