EACI1ERS CLOSE THE WORK
Saooesifnl Session of the Southwest Iowa
Association Ends.
EDUCATION AND THE LITTLE FOLKS
TVeod of One find Cnre of the Other
tJlveti Connldurntlnn l r the Spenli-
crn Election of Olllcem Held
During ; thn Afternoon.
After one of the most successful and
profitable sessions In Its history , the South
western Iowa Teachers' association ad
journed yesterday afternoon , and by night
moat of the visiting teachers had left the
city for their homes.
The election of officers for the ensuing
year , which was held at the afternoon ses
sion , resulted In the selection of the fol
lowing : President , H. II. Hayden , superin
tendent of schools , Council Bluffs ; vlc i
president , Miss Nellie Richards , Osccola ,
county superintendent of Clarke countyr
secretary , H. E. Dealer , Clarlnda , county
superintendent of Page county ; treasurer ,
E. U. Graff , Red Oals , principal of High
school ; chairman of executive committee ,
William Wilson , Atlantic , superintendent ot
schools. A number of resolutions extend
ing thanks to all who had helped to make
the meeting a success and to the press weri
passed. ,
The special feature of the morning session
was the nddrces by Dr. Arnold Tompklns of
the Illinois 'State university on "The Re
ligion of Education. " Dr. Tompklns In
opening pleasantly greeted the teachers as
those of the second best state In the union ,
claiming the first place for his own stats ,
Illinois. Ho said :
Education Is Intensely religious. We di
vide things as being either sacred or secu
lar ; nevertheless , all things in the world are
sacred. You can make no definition of edu
cation that Is not a definition of religion.
There Is a universal element of religion In
the human race , and I believe that every
sect Is true and right. All study Is a true
sort of religion. The purpose of all think
ing Is to touch the other life. The soul Is
final In Its testimony. The problem of life
Is to escape Its evils. Thinking Is a re
ligious act if it be a worthy thought. If a
man Is genial , Just and generous he must
bo educated and religious.
The morning session was shortened owing
to the fact that Prof. Chevalier , although
present , was unable owing to a bad cold
to carry out his part of the program.
KlndcrKnrtcn Symposium.
At the afternoon session the election ot
officers was held , following which a kinder
garten symposium was the program , which
brought the session to a close. The first
address on this subject was by Mrs. Hard-
man , supervisor of the kindergartens In this
city , who spoke on "Tho Kindergarten trom
th Mother's Standpoint. " Mre. Hardman
said in part :
Motherhood loses none of Its sweetness In
becoming wise. Knowledge of the child , his
nature and his needs brings to the mother a
purification of thought and purpose , a heart
growth which yields rich fruitage. To the
mother Is entrusted In large measure the
working out of God's Ideal for each child
given to her care. To lead this complex
little being Into a recognition of his rela
tionship is the ultimate aim of all who seek
his true development. Father , mother ,
teacher whatever name we bear , a fellow
ship of purpose unites our work. It re
quires "tho economy ot co-operation" to
unite the elements of human life Into characters -
actors of Immortal beauty , and the babe Ir
the mother's arms must be led step by step
toward this high Ideal. From the simple
plays common to all mothers in all coun
tries the child is led , when he has acquired
the power of speech , by song , atory and ex
ample a little higher on life's stairway. Little
tlo duties are given him to complete the
circle of household service. But the homo
environment does not supply all the condi
tions necessary for child growth. The young
life must touch other lives rooted In other
homes and nourished In different atmos
pheres. Another home circle , a larger and
broader one , brings together thesp young
lives. A mutual profession Is ours mothers
and klndcrgartners the work of character
building. The mother needs an Intelligent ,
sympathetic understanding of the kinder
garten ; the kindergarten must be in close
touch with the home to co-operate with the
mother for the best Interests of the child.
Mil * DlcU on Action.
Mlis Jessie E. Dicks , supervisor of kinder
gartens In Des Molnes , followed with a
paper upon the subject , "The Child and the
Kindergarten. " "Action alone , " said Miss
Dicks , "Is productive of results. One may
read beautiful books and dream beautiful
dreams , but to what good If the Ideas thus
aroused are not developed Into action ? It
| 3 not enough to form the Idea of becom
ing a great man ; one must do things to
make himself great. We talk fluently of
the equal and harmonious development of
the child's three-fold nature , but few of
us are yet wise enough to keep the edu
cation of these three natures In perfect
balance. With some the Intellectual side
weighs heaviest. With others greatest
weight Is placed upon spiritual training ;
but I have yet to learn of a case of too
much physical development. There have
been cases of ill-timed and wrongly di
rected physical exercises , but I know of none
where the development ot the physical na
ture overbalanced that of the mental and
moral nature. " The speaker urged a greater
employment ot the motor activities as a
means for holding the attention of the child
and advocated a moro general , thorough and
harmonious training ot the physical senses.
In conclusion she said , "To accomplish the
happiest results with the child In the kindergarten -
dergarton wo must study him not as an In
teresting subject for experiment , but as an
undeveloped bud of humanity whose blos
soming we hope to make more nearly per
fect. "
Itlndrrunrtcn nnd Primary School.
Mrs. Orlotta Shields Chlttenden , super
visor of the Omaha kindergartens , handled
"The Relation ot the Kindergarten to the
Primary School" In a most Interesting man
ner , saying In i > art :
The thoughtless have looked upon the
kindergarten as a nursery for the children
of the Indolent or of those so engrossed In
the duty of providing for their families that
the care of their children Is Impossible. The
kindergarten Is not a nursery , but the be
ginning of a system of education. It Is a
home to train little children mentally , mor
ally and physically and to glvo such train
ing In the form of play instead of work.
Play is an activity which Is Its own reward.
Work is an activity which has a definite ob
jective aim. The kindergarten is the me
dium between the two , because In U work
constantly passes into play. The- child
learns and grows physically , mentally and
morally as he plays. His play la serious
work , but not labor. The training of the
kindergarten Is a distinct advantage In the
primary school work which follows it. Chil
dren who have received It are wide-awake ,
Intelligent , observing , have clear Ideas and
express them Intelligently. They have had
technical training which makes them more
skillful with their pencils and are thus bet
ter prepared for writing and drawing. They
have , better Ideas of numbers and their re
lations. They have acquired habits of
order , prompt obedience , neatness and self-
reliance which fit them tor primary tchool
wet ! ; . U la essential , however , tn order to
ntcuro trie best results , that the transition
from thi kindergarten be made as FBI' ns
possible and something of kindergarten
methods should bo Incorporated In the work
of the primary schools.

SPEECH IIY HON. A. II. CUMMINS.
Rood Keiinlillcnti Doctrine Dealt Out
to it I.armAudience. .
Hon. A. B. Cummins was greeted last
night at the Dohany opera house by an Im
mense audience. In the absence of John N.
Baldwin , the meeting was presided over by
Hon. C. M. Hart. Hon. H. .W. Byers was
prevented by sickness from being present.
The appearance of Hon. Smith McPherson of
Red Oak , candidate for coi.gress , was the
signal for enthusiastic and prolonged cheer
ing.
ing.Mr.
Mr. Cummins , In opening his speech , paid
a splendid tribute to Mr. McPhcrson and
made a plea for a large majority for him.
His plea was answered from all over the
house with "We will , wo will. " The speaker
called the attention of the republican voters
to the necessity of turning out to the polls ,
as a vote for McPherson meant a vote to
sustain the policy and administration of
President McKlnley. Referring to the
money question Mr. Cummins s.ilcl :
There are two political doctrines , one
democratic and one republican , which have
ot late been much debated , that aeem t- >
have passed the state of discussion into that
of final Judgment. Two years ago the demo
cratic party and its allies presented a prop
osition for the free coinage of sliver at the
ratio of 16 to 1. It was captivating and al
luring to people who had grown weary with
the burdens of the severest Industrial de
pression and financial disturbance of mod
ern times , for it promised relief. It was
Instantly recognized as supreme In im
portance , charged to overflowing with the
gravest consequences , for it affected not
only the character of our financial -system ,
but the honor of the government and lha I
welfare of the people. It was therefore at ,
!
once and by universal consent accorded the ] I
first place In the memorable campaign of {
1896. Nothing could be more Inspiring , j
nothing more encouraging to the advocates
of popular Institutions , than the manner in
which the voters of the United States turned
from ever } ' subject to examine this para
mount question. They examined In the day
time and In the nighttime. They examined
It by the tallow dip and by the electrl"
lamp. They discussed It In the cornfields ,
by the waysides of the country and In the
crowded streets of the cities. They dis
cussed It In their homes , their offices , theli
Btores , their workshops and In meetings , the
like of which had been never before seen
They studied It In the light of all hlstorj
and experience. They argued It as men of
philosophy and as men of business , as men
ot reason and as men of prejudice , am'
finally when they had heard everything that
either wisdom or folly could say cither for
or against the proposition during the space
of four months they were ready to declare
their minds , and when the day In Novembe
came , great In their stuidy honesty , great
In their common rense , great in their knowl
edge , the- killed the free silver proposal
forever and forever.
On that autumn day they burled It so deep
that In vain do the wandering spirits from
Bryan to Stewart bound the trumpet to cal' '
It to resurrection and to life. And the his
tory of the country during the Intervening
times does not impair the soundness of the
conclusions of 1896. There Is nothing in our
experience since the battle was fought tr
lead the people to question the result of
that struggle. On the other hnnd , we know
now as wo never did before that soum1
money , the gold standard , unvarying and
unfaltering confidence In the Integrity of
our financial system are the foundation
stones of a safe Industrial and commercial
structure , and wo are going resolutely for
ward to such legislation as will put It be
yond the power of any man or any met
loss than the whole government to disturb
the serenity which now prevails.

DE3 MOINES. Nov. 5. ( Special Tele
gram. ) Chairman Hancock of the ropub-
llcan state central committee this afternoon
Issued the following statement In regard
to the political situation In Iowa :
"There have been received at republlran
headquarters complete and dcllnlte polli
flora fifty-eight of the ninety-nine countlen
In the state. These polls show a not re
publican gain In the fifty-eight counties of
9,612 over the vote of 1S97. In addition
there have been received conservative esti
mates of majorities In thirty-one of the re-
malnlng forty-one counties of the state. Es.
tlmatlng the vote of the ten counties from
which returns have not been received , on
the basis of the vote of 1897 , shows a ma
jority for the repulhlcan ticket of 47.654.
From these polls and estimates , which have
been carefully collected , the republican stats
central committee believes that the repub
lican state ticket will bo elected by at least
CO.OOO majority over the fusion ticket , In
caeo as large a vote Is cast on Tuesday
as the Indications now seem to warrant.
The situation In the congressional districts
le brighter than It was some days ago , and
at this time the committee believes that
there Is no question but that the repub
licans will elect their entire congressional
ticket. "
The following resolutions were adopted
by the vestry of St. Paul's Episcopal church
here today , In their fight on Dr. T. E. Green
of Cedar Rnpldt , elected bishop of Iowa , and
now up for confirmation. They will be
adopted at all of the many churches op
posed to him. The fight Is persistent and
will give Qreen no advantage :
Whereas , Hev. Thomas Green , S. T. D. ,
rector of Grace church , Cedar llaplds , la. ,
has announced his intention of seeking an
election as bishop of Iowa at the diocesan
convention to be held , under the action of
the late convention , In Grace church , Cedar
llaplds , on Tuesday , November 29 , 1898 , and
It Is the belief of this vestry that It Is to
the Interest of all the diocese that the con
vention at which a bishop Is to be elected
shall , under the circumstances , not be held
In the church of which the said Dr. Green
Is rector ; therefore , be It
Resolved , That the standing committee he
and Is hereby requested to change the place
of meeting of said convention , and we ven
ture to suggest the cathedial at Davenport
as being a suitable place for the holding of
such convention.
The fight against Dr. Green's confirma
tion lias been a bitter one and It Is evident
that the end Is not yet.
Governor Shaw was In his office this after
noon , but left Just after dinner for Mahaska
county , speaking at Oskaloosa this evening.
When asked about the dairy commissioner
appointment the governor said the name of
the man selected to fill the place would not
be given until Monday. On Monday Gov
ernor Shaw speaks three times In his own
county , Crawford , and will bo In DCS Molnes
on flection day.
Secretary of State Dobson was at his desk
again today after an absence of a week
from his ofllce on account of sickness. Ho
Is still weak and only spent a short time at I
the state house. Dobson thinks he barely I
escaped typhoid fever , but expects to be
about his work again next week.
An accident occurred In the Rock Island
shops at Valley Junction , a suburb , today
which may result In the death of Con Raf-
ferty , a young man who Is an apprentice In
the employ of the railroad company. The
men were engaged In cutting the flues for
one of the engines , when the machine
bursted and one of the flying pieces of steel
hit the young man In the head , crushing hU
skull and rendering him unconscious. Medi
cal attention was called at once , but all the
efforts of the physicians failed to restore the
victim to consciousness. It has not yet been
determined whether or not the Injured boy's
condition would warrant an operation , but It
Is more than likely one will he made In
the hope of saving his life.

There was a time when to get a first
class pair of shoes for men or women it
was necessary to pay five dollars or
more just as the retailer felt about it.
And those same retailers try to make
you believe it is necessary to pay the
same price now. But it isn't. There
is no branch of manufacturing that has
been perfected so much as shoe-making. The im
provement in shoe machinery has cheapened the cost
of production and improved the character of the
work until now yon can buy as good a shoe for
$3.50 as you used to have to pay $5.00 for.
We Sell the Best Shoes Made
for Men and Women
for $3.50.
Wo carry them in shapes , widths and styles
to fit any feet or fancy and we warrant evnry pair
of them.
