The officers of the association are enthusiastic in the fine treatment accorded them in Omaha ard are saying all kinds of nice things about the well-attended sos- sions. From the singing by well-drilled ohil- dren’s choruses to the ably prepared and delivered address by Dean Fordyce the program teems with good things, as was well shown by the absorbed Interest of the large audience. The first speaker of the morning Wwas Principal E. U. Graft on “The Development of Moral Belthood.” y Though he has been Omaha but a comparataively short time Mr. Graff's pop- warity In Omaha was shown In the spon- tancous: burst of applause which greeted 7is appearance. From the first well told story he captured his audience and held it while he explained the importance of de- veloping the positive in the youth of the He sald that “don’t is an abstraction lidren. They usually translate ‘do not” to mean ‘do’ They cannot understand negatives. Moral development comes from the positive. What the child does counts for ethical as well as for physical power. The problem of the teacher is to ‘hold up' Fether than hold down.' No teacher should be content to work on the negatlve side of child lite, even though the bringing out of the positive be difficult No Need to Tell. “Americans need not be told that there 5 & class of citizens whose motives are so6d, but whose actions are seemingly riminal.

He al- luded to the fact that the anclent philoso- phers had said, “All ls change.” Then he | showed how In nature, the sky, the | soil, In the plain, in the city, in inner man and In his environment nothing persists. The activities of men are constantly chang- ing.

With a strong and attractive the program fourth annual conference of the East Central Nebraska Teachers' association began Thursday evening in general ses- | offerea the invocation. ture at the University of Chicago. A total attendance of 1,500 or more edu- cators from Douglas and the other ten eastern countles of the state Is expected before the session adjourns Saturday noon. Preliminary to the main address at Thursday evening’s general session, Rev. J. W. Conley of the First Baptist church Hiram Scoville of South Omaha rendered an acceptable violin solo and Miss Fannle Meyers of Omaha won favor with her sweet voice In a solo and encore. “Dmaha bids you welcome,” spoke Dr. W. M. Davidson, superintendent of the Omaha public schools, In closing his address of welcome to the assembled teachers. Out- lining briefly, but In his able way, the scope and importance of the educator's profession, he pictured the magnitude of the present conference and its possible re. sults, and with a few well chosen words made the visitors feel at home in the city Responding to the proffer of welcome Superintendent Dixon of Tekamah inter- polated several apt anecdotes and stories and incidentally made his acquaintance with the members of the assoclation, having only recently taken up his work in this state after being engaged In educative en- deavors in Ohlo. He not only accepted the welcome on behalf of the visiting teach- ers, but also thanked the Omaha teachers who are acting as hosts during the confer- ence for the opportunity meet In a metropolitar city whose school system has @ wide and high reputation, Dr. by his mere bearing and delivery. He has a volce of warmth and depth and his lec ture proved a treat. Though promoting no ideas or announce- ments of startling scope or nature he pre- sented an interesting address on the sub- Ject, “Some Educational Ideas.” *“There is no enterprise in which America is more deeply Interested than In education,” he declared, and sald that In spite of social political and religlous activities the coun try is more fixedly paying attention to the mental training of its millions of peo- ple than in considering the other activities Comparing education to the golden fleece of the Argonautic expedition, and medern teachers (0 the men who trained the an- clent heroes of mythology to the task of Tecovering the prized trophy, the turer then proceeded to a comparative mention of the methods of education Irf the south and north. He said that while special ichools, Gonvents, tutors and governesses promulgate much of the higher knowl- edge In the south, universality of education prevails in this part of the country and &reat schools for all classes offer splen- 4ia opportunities for learning. Amusing examples of imitattons In knowledge and education were skilifully cited by Dr. Willette in his proof that America is among the first In education And to show that not all such narrow- ness and limitation {8 outside of America, to amination questions of which he heard in this country. “To place the child where he can just earn a living is one of the last purposes had sion at the First Methodist church.

How many of us would be satisfied now with the life occu- pation we first picked out? It takes time and training to bring ourselves into our own vision.

Concluding the evening, Mrs. Leverett of Councll Eluffs gave a balf- hour lecture on composers, Bach, Mo- sart, Mendelssohn Wagner, fllustrat- ing her talk with colored views and motion | plotures. |FRUIT AS A SPRING DIET Julia R and it Sald to Be Far Superior to Any of the Old-Time onenl which many take a It is an old-fashioned rule | yet obey, that every one should | tonie in the spring of the year Bvery child in years gone by was com pelled to swallow that nauseous dose of oll which he so dreaded that equally | awful sulphur and molasses. 1" True, these things may not do an | harm, But there correctibles will do as much good and are more pleas ant to take.

Commis- sioner Decker, who wrote the opinion, says In part: ‘It 1s entirely possible that the company might continue to get along perhaps fairly well for a considerable period without re- lief of the character here shown. The volume of traffic and revenue may be 80 great that its nmet income would be sur- prisingly large. The board directors may be able to meet pressing debt pay ments or secure extensions, and gain foot- holds of financial advantage through un remitting economies and constant composi- tion of debt obligations which would enable the raliroad operations to continue without putting in force the arrangement here con- templated.
