education, the de| c>n ?sj >u .
ing to what used to be called in the o.d
normal schools the department of
pedagogy. Since it is a teachers' col
lege, the natural thing is, of course,
that special emphasis be put on the
professional part of the work; but.
just as a ductor is taught many things
other than the one thing designated
the principles of medicine, it is deemed
necessary to teach a teuCSsy many
things other than rules of teaching.
The thing that most clearly distin
guishes Peabody from other teachers’
colleges is the departmental school of
country life and the departmental
school of practical arts, divided into
domestic science and industrial arts.
In these schools tiie men and women
preparing for teaching are given spe
cial training for special work. Those
who expect to be country teachers and
rural life leaders learn in the Knapp
School of Country Life the problems
that have to be met in that field and
the best method, in the opinion of prac
tical experts, of meeting them.
For the summer school, which will
begin June 25, a faculty has been
got together that money alone could
not secure. Many of them are men
and women who ordinarily decline to
teach in summer schools, but who have
agreed to do it this once because of
their interest in the first session of the
first southern college for teachers and
to help work out its distinctive plan.
Going down the line as they appear
in the catalogue there are Professor
E. C. Brooks, head of the department
of education in Trinity college and au i
thor of a number of books; Dr. Joseph
K. Hart, professor of education and',
psychology in the University of Wash
ington and author of books in educa
tional research: Meredith Smith, in

••It’s queer what strange things hap

to the stage driver who later carried
him away from the woods. “That is
the first time I was ever accused of
stealing a dog.”
“Yes. sir.” replied the driver sympa

A Sv -Jiat-’s Joke,
When a certain distinguished gen
eral was in old days military secre
tary at Malta he was sent during a
government house function to ask a
yotm-i lady to repeat a skirt dance
which had met with much apprecia
tion. The fair dancer, who was some
what affected, protested that she posi
tively couldn’t and that if she did she
would be completely ••blown.” The of
ficer returned to the governor looking
rather sheepish, and hesitated as if
there was something he did not like to
say. “Well?” asked the great man.
“She won’t.” replied the other. “Won’t!
Why?” “ I don’t know,” was the re
ply, “but she said she’d be blowed if
she would!”
Gallant Service.
Colonel James Hamilton Lewis went
over to a hotel near the capitol for
some luncheon. He finished, walked to
the door of the case and stood looking
out into the lobby, occupying the place
usually held by the head waiter.
A very pretty woman came up. mis
| took the senator for the head waiter
and asked: “May I have that table
over there?”
“Certainly, madam,” the gallant colo
nel replied. “It will give me great
pleasure to escort you thither.”
He led her to the table, pulled out
her chair and seated her. She picked
up the bill of fare, glanced at it and
then said to Lewis: “What do you rec
• unmeud today ?”
“Madam.” Lewis replied with one of
his famous bows, “if I were not mar
ried I should unhesitatingly recom
mend myself.” Saturday Evening
