TEACHERS TALK OF PRESENT DAY
CHILD VIEWPOINTS.
FRENZIED GREED OF DOLLARS
Home Influence of Business Men Upon
Their Children Was Attacked at the
First Session of Northern Nebraska
Teachers' Association.
I From Thursday's Dnlly.J
Tlio 'Itlcn that nionoy-KcttliiK Is the
chief 'end of life \vna roundly scored ,
asvoll ns tile hiislness-nmn father of
today. : who. engrossed with his own
comcmrqlnl nffnlrs , IIUB little time to
devote- his children , In the llrsl ROS
slon pfithe twelfth annnnl meeting of
the N.ar.th Nebraska Teachers' nnso-
vclatlqn 'lilcli was held In the high
school , assembly room yesterday utter-
noon. . The topic which brought about
the discussion upon the wi-culled prac
tlcal education for school children , was
that assigned to Superintendent A.
V. Teed of Dlxon county , "A Uroador
.and More Substantial Elementary Ed
ucation. "
Mr. Teed took the view that the el-
' ementnry education should bo of a
more practical and sounder nature ,
while Superintendent Sornisou of No
ligh , who followed with a discussion ,
designated the "so-called practical ed
ucation" ns "but the frenzied desire of
something that will aid the child to
earn a few dollars speedily. "
Practically this same view was held
by Superintendent Stlno of Ilartlng-
ton , who also discussed the question.
"What Is the real purpose of life to
day ? " ho asked. Ho cited the theories
of the ancient , dwelling upon their po
etic natures and their philosophy of
thinking and getting enjoyment and
happiness from life , while today , he
said , the chief aim seems to bo prin
cipally money-getting. Ho also said
that the teaching of language and
common sense English should bo
among the practical thlngcs taught.
Children must bo taught correct views
of life.
Attacks Present Home Influence.
One of the most Interesting fea
tures of the afternoon was the attack
of Superintendent Sorensen upon pres
ent systems of homo Influence. Ho
said that the business man gives too
little attention to the development of
his ciiiidrcn. "He barely knows them ,
so engrossed is he in his business af
fairs and money-getting , " he declared.
Superintendent Sorensen also said
that children should be given a course
in manual training , that the idea of
wealth as a chief aim In life should bo
crowded out of life and that there
should be a more positive moral in
struction.
Superintendent Teed , In his treat
ment of the subject , showed first that
only a small percent of school chil
dren ever received more than an ele
mentary education. Education should
' bo first practical and then cultural ,
he said , If possible. Ho touched upon
the course of study. Ho said there is
too much adding and not enough sub
stitution. Quality Is often sacrificed
to quantity. Text books present too
much material Arithmetic xhould bo
completed In less than eight years
He urged a more thorough knowledge
of subjects , snld that too many teach
ers lack In scholarship and entered a
plea for more careful work. He said
that there Is more interest and more
of a desire to make touching a real
profession , i ecessary to development.
President Wilson Calls to Order.
President E. P. Wilson of Wayne ,
who Is a big man both physically and
mentally , called the meeting to order
at 2 o'clock. Miss Ruth Shaw gave
a piano solo which was rendered with
feeling' . Invocation was pronounced
by Rev. W. J. Turner , and then Su
perintendent Teed took up his sub
ject , which he handled In Interesting
manner.
Lecture Tonight.
. Tonight Dr. Thomas E. Green will
deliver a , lecture to the teachers at
the Methodist church. Concerning Dr.
Green , .Dr. Frank W. Gunsaulls , the
noted .Jectu'ror , says :
"The lecture of Dr. Green has a mas
terful and noble purpose. Such mes
sages to the America of today , proph
esy a better and a greater America to
morrow. Dr. Green Is creating a lof
tier faith In the Ideals for which re
publics are created. "

TLo Jurymen declare that they never
had a finer companion than the million
aire's Hon. . Young Frew , who lu a seri
ous sort of chap , HH.VH that he wus very
much Interested In the work.
Russian Radical * Win Victory.
St. Petersburg. April 4. The offi
cial canvass of thu voles cast at the
election , owing to the unexpectedly
heavy vote and the Inexperience of
the officials , has not been completed ,
but it is conceded that the radical
tide has swept to victory every one
of the 160 constitutional democratlo
electors. The constitutional demo
crats are naturally jubilant , as the
sweeping triumph which they have
won at tl.e capital , the headquarters
of the bureaucracy , is bound to have
a strong effect on the country at
large , and are now looking forward tea
a working majority In the national
parliament.
Elections In Kansas.

the negro question was an Issue , the
Democrats made a clean kwcep. on a
platform opposing negro officehold-
Ing. Guthrie has hitherto been Re
publican. The whole Republican
ticket was elected In Oklahoma City
The Air of London.
There Is no fresh air In the heart of
London , according to the conclusion *
of a recent Investigator. lie says : "No
evidence of ozone was anywhere ap
parent except at Browuswood park , In
the northeast. It was from the north
east quarter the wind wan blowing ,
and the air had lost all trace of ozone
before it had reached Hyde park. At
Bushey park , although practically a
country district , no ozone was present
In the air. London had not only ab
stracted the goodness out of the air
that swept over It , but hud added to It
tLo exhalations from the breath and
bodies of millions of human beings and
of tons of thousands of animals. Per
sons living within a one or two mile
radius of rimrlng Cross cannot have
fresh air entering their dwellings at
any timo. "

RESULTS
The word results means a whole lot to the farmer of to-day and it is
especially attractive to the homeseelier or those seeking new locations.
If we tell you of a country where you are fiurc of success , will you
believe us ? It is only necessary for you to farm the land and the
best results will follow a State which the government reports will
show leads in the production of wheat. It also ranks among the first
in the raising of corn , alfalfa , timothy and other products , together
with Block raising. We speak of
KANSAS
The great State of the West , where lands can be purchaucd from $5
to $30 per acre which equals the returns of the $50 to $150 per acre
lands of other States. EASTERN COLORADO is identical in most
respects and the same opportunities are offered there. Buy quick
while the lands are cheap and secure the benefit of an excellent invest
ment. THE MISSOURI PACIFIC RAILWAY touches the
heart of this rich agricultural region and extremely low rates are
offered , allowing stop-over at pleasure in certain territory for inspec
tion of lands , etc. Write us and we will send you free descnotive
literature and full information.
