Mr. Murray was the representative of Mr. Ingalls’ roads in the Joint Traffic As- sociation from the time of its organization until the period of his appointment to his present place with the Baltimore and Ohio, and Mr. Walker was the freight trattic manager of the Chesapeake and Ohio. When Mr. Murray became receiver for the Baltimore and Ohio he retained his former position on the Chesapeake and Ohio. At the same time Mr. E. F. Co: was made general freight agent of the Big Four, and Mr. Whitoker was made sistant traffic “nanager of the Chesa- ke and Ohio. The story goes now that to handle the Chesapeake and Ohio trafle and to at- tend to his duties in the board of managers in the Joint Traffic Association is more work than Mr. Walker can do and that Mr. Ingails has decided to make Mr. Wal- Moreover, we are always Teady to prove it. f7our prices for Fine Harness are 25 per cmt below what they can be bought fer in New York.

Now she is in the fourth grade of the public school, but on account of so much “home work’ being insisted upon through the different grades, we are quite in despair, and have almost concluded that we may be forced to place her in a private school, where she can be allowed ample time to rest from study and for recreation in the open air.

The public school whose methods took the premium at the American centennial in 1876 began its work at 9 a.m., closing at 11:30, with no recess. It reopened at 1:30 P.m., closing at 2:30, giving two hours at noon, thus doing away with the objection- able features of a recess.

Public school instruction fs for the pupils; the pupils, and not their parents, are expected to do the work, and one of the evils against which the teacher is con- tinually struggling is the writing of sen- tences and paragraphs for the children by their parents or friends. The language work, writing of compositions and correct use of words in oral recitation are the prep- aration for the English work in the h Schools; or, if the pupil does not go to the High Schools, preparation for the intelli- gent use of his mother tongue in after life.
