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 charge of kiiidc; garten work in Teach ers’ college Columbia university; Mil Ired Deering Julian, an expert in kin dergarten settlement work; Louise Dietz, supervisor of primary grades ln| the public s bools of Louisville, Ky. i Professor Charles A.

Os the men who are on the perma nent professional faculty of George Peabody College For Teachers several are recognized nationally as leading au thorities in their lines. For a number of years Dr Dresslar has been the ex pert in school hygiene of the United States bureau of education. Prior to that time he had held important chairs in such institutions as the University of California. Professor William K. Tate, professor of rural education, has been for a num lAr of years supervisor of rural schools of South Carolina and is author of nearly a dozen books on the solution of rural problems. He is one of the most active of workers tn educational asso ciations throughout the country. Upon Dr. Carter Alexander, who came to Peabody from the department of education of the University of Mis souri. has devolved largely the work of mapping out the courses for the summer school. He is widely known for his work in school administration and is author of a treatise on “Recent Tendencies In Teachers’ Voluntary As sociations.” ♦ The ♦ Scrap Book No Friend of the Militants.

The governor of a New England state was one time fishing in the streams of the Adirondacks when he en countered a handsome setter dog. which insisted on fol- I i L / lowing him from camp to camp. Later lie met a party of men work in g up stream with a n a five guide. The guide imme diately recogniz ed his dog;. “Ha. trying to steal my dog. you?” he shout ed at the gover nor. “I’ll have you in jail for this. There’s a law in the woods just as big as you have in the city.” The governor endeavored to explain that he was an unwill ing companion to the dog. which had persisted in following him, I'Ut to little or R e CO g X i ZED liIS DO g. no effect, until he had a crisp greenback to aid him in liis arguments. ••It’s queer what strange things hap pen to a man tip here.” be remarked 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 thetically. Then, after a moment’s thoughtful silence, he continued, “As for me, sir, 1 have never been accused of stealing anything.”—Lippincott’s. 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 Best.
