Be a Woman.
Oft i've heard a gentle mother
As the twilight hours began.
Pleading with a son on duty
Urging him to be a man.

Though with love's words quite as ready,
Points she out the other duty,
"Strive, my dear, to be a lady."

Tom Ellington was down from Bison,
Monday.
What's a lady? Is it something
Made of hoops and Bilks and airs?
Used to decorate the parlor
Like the fancy rugs and chairs?
Is it one that wastes on novels
Every feeling that Is human<
If 'tis this to be a lady,
"Tis not this to be a woman.
Mother, then, unto your daughter,
Speak of something higher far
Than to be mere fashion's lady,
"Woman," is the brightest star.
If you in your strong affection,
Urge your son to be a true luan,
Urge your daughter no less strongly
To arise and be a woman.
Yes, a woman! Brightest model
Of that high and perfect beauty,
Where the mind and soul and body
Blend to work out life's great duty
Be a woman: Naught is higher
On the gilded crest of fame;
On the catalogue of virtue
There's no hrignter, holier, name.

Last Saturday, the Waukomis second
eleven came down to play the return
game of football with our boys.
Tho game was called at 2 o'clock p.
, On account of a fumble on tho kick-
off Waukomis got the ball and scored
but after that they never "saw home
again." When our boys got the ball
they wont through the Waukomis lin
"like quick silver down a funnel".
Our boys wore too fast for the visitor*
and were not so heavy.
Arthur Cashion was hurt in the early
part of tho game.
Good ball was played on both sides
and Waukomis went homo well pleased
with the treatment received at the hands
of the second eleven.
Tho line up was as follows:

His salary is small, lie must purchase years, that when an institute opens the
books, journals, papers, etc., etc., to
keep abreast the times. He, must pre-
pare for and take examinations for
which ho must pay. He must attend
summer normals, institutes and associa-
tions, which costs money Where is the
coin to come from? What has the
teacher at the end of the year to show
for his wasted energy?
What inducement has the teacher to
remain in the field of education longer '
than something more profitable opens
for them?
For example, the woman, who has
thoroughly informed herself on primary
work, has ten, fifteen or twenty years'
of experience, is compelled to work side
by side, at the same salary with th#1
young girl graduate, who has perhaps J
been her pupils.
It is useless to suggest that they do
the same work, and should receive tho
same pay for they do not! They may j
put in the same number of hours but i
the quality of work is beyond compari-
son. All know that the teaeh< rs' work
for the first few years could not bo
equal to their own work later on; from
the simple fact that our teachers enter
the field in a crude state of preparation.
Few we find who are thoroughly educat-
ed for the work they are to do.
Why not have the examinations cover
every point they have to teaeh. Have
it heavy, important, voluminous and
strong so when they have once success-
fully passed the examination, they are
through for all time. There should be
fixed salaries, increasing them with the
years of experience. For example an
instructor's first year they should re-
ceive not less than $1)0 per month, tho
second $35, and so on, giving a gradual
rise.
The actual school term he not less
than nire months, the summer term of
institute of six weeks, then the much
needed vacation, with the salary con-
tinuing during the entire year.
No teacher should be removed from
their position us long as they continue
to do good work. This would lifi tho
great load of anxiety from their minds,
necessitated by the constant fear of
failure upon examination, fear of losing
their position, and fear of not being able
to cope with expenses -and add to their
outer world will say in derision:
"The green house has opened for
season."
