Normal Courses
reMadeUniforoi
Systematized Training ut in
Force Throughout State by
Superintendent.
A
Lincoln, Nov. 21. This yearns
the first time student teachers at
the 215 normal training high schools
of the state are receiving uniform
courses of study. In previous years
school superintendents and school
boards in the various districts and
cities outlined courses of study. The
result, it is said, was a great vari
ance , in subjects, and insome in
stances the work was below the
standard sought by the department
ot-public instruction.
The uniform courses of studv were
(outlined and prepared during the
summer vacation season under tne
direction of Superintendent of Pub
lic Instruction John M. Matzen. -The
course has been prepared in
pamphlet form. . Six thousand Cop
ies of they 300-page pamphlet -were
printed and distributed to teachers
and to each of the 4,000 students
attending the normal high schools.
- Though the courses of study have '
oeen loiiowea less than three
months, reports from teachers -in all
parts of the state to normal school
inspectors and to Superintendent
Matzen indicate that considerably
more progress has been made this
year than in previous years.
According to Superintendent Mat
zen no other state in the United
States has systematized the instruc
tion of studeiit teachers as has Ne
braska. . . '
Nebraska is one of the'few states
not suffering from a teacher short
age. The answer to this, Superin
tendent Matzen says, is the fact that
during the last 13 years nearly 40,008
students ha.e graduated from the
normal training high schools of the
state. Nearly all of them, it .is said,
took up teaching as a profession up
on their graduation, -, .

Body of Priest Found. ,
TGalway, NoV. 21. The body
Father Griffin, who was the curate
of. Bushy park, was found An a bog
by1 the roadside near Darha, four
jfiles from Galway. Volunteers had
teen searching for the missing mat?
since he was kidnaped by three un
known persons last Sunday. A party
of country lads made the discavery,
The lads observed in the bog what
appeared to have beeiv recent-up-htaval.
They began probing iiito'the
mound with sticks and finally, uncov
ered, the skirts and the overcoat of
the priest. Without proceeding fur
ther they sent for , priests iu- Gal
vay and when theV arrived, working
under theirdirection by moonlight,
unearthed the body qf the missing
curate. A, bullet woupd iu the head
ot the priest was evidence of the
cause of his death.
. Cottasres in this bleak and sparsely
inhabited oart of the countryside tell
ji me mysterious arrival at mianigni
last Sunday, following the kidnapinjr
of Father Griffin; of a lorry1 load of
men. The lorry halted near the spot
where the body was found and the
lights" extinguished. In about 20
minutes the lamps were relighted and
the party drove away. -
, First to Forfeit Life. V
At St. Johephs church where
Father Griffin presided, pathetic
scenes of erief were witnessed. The
priests omitted the usual sermon andJ
confined themselves to relating in
cidents of the life of Father-Griffin
and paying tribute to him. v They
declared that the priest had earned
a martyrs'- crown and beggec the
congregation to . pray for the , re
pose of his soul, but not to forget
alsd to pray for his murderers.
Although a number oCprieste late
ly, have been ill-treated .or threat
ened, Father- Griffin is the first to
forfeit his life, t
In fact no priest has been done
to death1 in Ireland in many wears
Father O'Meehan, Father Griffin's,
dolfiague and senior curate, with
whom Father Griffin lived, said
in church,that he had received five,
written threats of death since last
May and that he did not dare sleep
in his xown home. He added that
Father Griffin had never receieved

Knowledge of
Leper's Escape
t r . - - ,
Veiled Humor, Current When
Victim First Left Madison
County, Supplanted by
Gravity of Situation.
Madison. Neb., Nov. 21. (Spe
cial.) Tltd fact that Charles Young,
a Jcper, is roaming sjhe United
States and probably spreading the
disease is a question of distaste to
members of the board of commisr
iniwrt of Madison county.' Some
of the slories whichhave come-out
since the leper escaped' from -the
county poor farm last July are now
being denied by membersi of the
board, rend an effort isbcing .rrtade
to indicate that evifcfng was done
to hold the Jepcf m- this county.
The veiled humor which existed
when it was made generally public
that this county was rid of the un
welcome victim seems to have dis
appeared. . The boasts which some
citizens have mane tnat tne county
saved $5,000 by the departure of the
leper seem to have been subsided by
the more serious thought of ..the
leder mingling- with healthy people
and spreading a disease which can
resut in an epidemic. '

a stright forward statement now tna

County Commissioner Fred Terry
declares that the county has done
e'vervthino- oossible foR the- comfort
. t , . i . r. a... i
of the diseased man and had, also
exhausted every possibnt means of
sending him to a leper colony, The
commissioner agrees that jflo. p.rovt
sions had been made to confine the
man and that he was free to come
and go as he pleased. In fact, Young,;
was an nonor panenr oi mc tuumj
in a temporary pesthouse on the
popr farm-grounds, flii food was
brought to him by employes at the
farm. He led a lonely .and miser
able life in unsanitary surround
ings. ' j '
Records May Be Disclosed.
sJow that the state board of
health is making an investigation
info the case, it is expected that the
records at the poor farm which are
withheld from the public ' af this
time, will be uncovered. s ' '
One reporf ot the incident m con-f

"One newspaper has . announced
that the county never had the
m.oney, or intended to pay .the
money to. the Louisiana leper , pol
ony for the care of the Madison
county leper," Terry said. "This is
absolutely ;untrue, .. The facts are
that n. -urpnf- tn 9 faifisnn hatlW.
purchased .a draft for $5,000 anjlu
sent a man to Louisiana witn tne
money. When he arrived in Louisi
ana the stat board of health there
refused to. allow Young entrance
to the colony. ': . y . '
Secret Trip Planned ; '"'
It was previously explained that
the -Louisiana colony management
wanted $5,000 for- the-care of
Young. Plans were made to, send
Sheriff Smith and some other man
tp Louisiana with Young. The trip,
accorcVing to unofficial reports, was
to have been made secretly because
of ooSsible objections, which would
have been raised bv state board of,
healths en route. Ihe name of the
man who made the trip to Louisiana
with the money was not given out by
Commissioner Terry.-

Why Be Skinny?
It's Easy to Be Plump,
Popular and Attractive
- It?s easy to be plump, popular, and at
tractive instead of being thin, angojar and
scrawny. Almost Invariably the trouble
ia due to weak nerves and consequent fail

eat heartily, but owing to the lack of nerv.
Oui energy and impoverished blood yon
don't get the benefit from the food yon
eat. All of this can be remedied Vyery
quickly by taking with each meal a live
grain tablet of Blood-Iron Phosphate. This
quickly strengthens the nervous system,
enriches the blood and increases its oxy
gen carrying power, and in.a remarkably
short time the average, thin, weak, nervous
man or woman begins not only to put on
flesh, but also begins to look and feel- bet
ter. Sleep, appetit, strength and endur
ance are improve dull .eyes become
bright, and, uiflei '(Tlicted with some or
ganic complaint, Hlj a no reason why,
if you take Blood-Iron Phosphate regu
larly, you should not soon look dnd feel
much better and many years younger. De

Connell Drug Co. or any other druggist
for enough Blood-Iron Phosphate fir a
