Wyandotte was, as usual, first in nearly everything she tried for at the Kansas City fair. Her general display, under the management of EL H. Kerns, of Delaware, and George Thiret, of Wyandotte township, -carried off the first premium for county products. We have seen larger, but not better displays from this county. Besides the quality which was equal to anything Wyandotte has heretofore shown the arrangement is superior to any former display we have seen.

The design is very good indeed, showing artistic skill, showing the products of the county in their order. We can not here give an enumera tion of all the articles with included manufactured products of the county, but will mention a few. There are 1,700 bundles of grain and grasses, 9 varieties of superior wheat, melons that weigh from 70 to 80 pounds, a pumpkin which weighed 150 and the finest potatoes yeu ever saw, from the farm of the potato king. Besides the 1st premium for the best county display a citizen took the 2nd on agricultural display by one exhibitor. First premiums were taken on white and black oats, white and red wheat, rye, timothy, castor beans, best 5 varieties of grapes for table use" best 5 for wine, and the best 5 plates of white and black grapes for wine, and sweet potatoes, and 2nd on white corn.

Mrs. George Thiret took first premiums for best collection of jellies, ten varieties, on tomato preserves, jar mixed pickles, canned strawberries, plums and peaches and 2nd on best collection of jellies and pickles and canned fruit. Mr. Thiret took first on Ben Davis apples. -((f'- JJ ft sC FFICE, 129 ankr Are Prepared to Excavate an Thoroughly Renovate Privy Vaults and Cesspools, SHORT NOTICE AND AT REASONABLE RATES.

Large Stock of MEN'S AND BOYS on 11 KANSAS. Me! SI JUST RECEIVED AND Being Closed Out, All matter for this column should be addressed to Edward F. Taylor, Wyandotte; and must be pent to this office by Thursday 12 o'clock. Mrs. Boss should have been named as one of Armourdale' teachers, instead of Miss Hirt, in last week's issue.

The county superintendent has been visiting at the old homestead, near Smith-ville, Clay county, the past week. The Western School Journal, for September, is full of good practical matter. Read it. From all over the state comes the report that two-thirds of the failures at the last teachers' examination were on arithmetic. Why is it? Are our methods of teaching faulty, or are the questions faulty What is Education? One of onr greatest educators once said, "Education means three things.

(1). To know something. (2). To do something. (3).

To be somebody. We like this definition of the word, and think it a good one for teachers to think on. The first object of the child on entering school should be to acquire knowledge and the teacher to aid in this must create in the child a strong desire for a broad and liberal education. As the knowledge is acquired the student should be taught the importance of using it. Many of the graduates of our high schools and colleges commit their greatest error, in that they do not use the knowledge which they possess.

An education can be ot no benefit nnless it is practical. The greatest minds which have moved the world have been the men who used their knowledge. It is not how much we know, bnt how much we are able to tell; how much we use. Many men who have had but a common education have been far more successful in life than many others of our best educated, simply because they have used their talents instead of burying them with the thought that, "To know is enough." Then why shall we not say something to the school children about the importance of using the knowledge which they are acquiring in school. Above all this, to be somebody.

Let this be their highest aim, by using their education as a means to attain some high and noble end, to become one of thd world's greatest men or women, and to live true and honorable lives. A. In last week's issue, a short article appeared opposing the present system of examination There may be valid objections to this system, but we fail to see the force of the objections raised by the author of the above mentioned article. Because a teacher must teach for twenty-five dollars per month is no excuse for his attempting the work half prepared. If the profession does not afford just compensation, let him abandon it for something else.

Besides this, he says the supply will always be equal to the demand. It is probably true, that the grading in these counties will be lowered to supply the demand, but that is no worse than to have a law grade of questions. Under this system, if his position is true, the supply is not likely to be any greater than the demand, and this itself will tend to elevate the standard The very fact that the teachers know that they may be called upon to pass this examination will stimulate them to prepare on such subjects. No. 2 school has been reported as open ing on the 13th but nothing was said of the improvement of the school property that is being made by the school board, and the present school board of district No.

2 may be said, without the least exaggeration, to b. the most enterprising school board in the county. It is safe to say that the school house is the most perfectly furnished district school house in the county, and the improvements this year will consist of a new fence, a new coal and wood house, a new plank walk from the road to the house and about forty volumes added to the already large district library, besides other things of less importance. The school opened with 30 pupils in attendance, and it is the inten tion to make this the most successful school year that district No. 2 has ever seen.

If the mental acumen of the writer of Rosedale items in yonr last issue was equal to his lack of perception he would long since have graced a chair in lale or Harvard. Nothing was said about measureing Kansas City by the cubic inch. It was the educational enthusiasm" that we proposed to measure by the cubic inch. In fact there is no other way to measure our enthusiasm, because it does not exist on the surface only. We have no obje ctions to our Rosedale friends measuring theirs by surface meas ure if it exists only on the outside.

But we believe their worthy chancellor of the sub-university did them great injustice in thus gauging their enthusiasm. We believe the Rosedalians are all right on the educational question, and that the egotistical attempt of the writer of the University article was ill timed. "The crime of being a young man we shall attempt neither to palliate nor deny," etc "That Yochosteb." Argentine schools have been put off an other weftk, and will not open until 5th. The erroneous article in last Wednes day's Journal with regard to "trouble in the schools," and "one teacher must be dismissed," must certainly have been the imagination of the reporter. The fact of the case is, Argentine has six school rooms, and the board say that they will not dismiss one of their five teachers.

I. Lee's, successor to O. Burt, The meeting of the Wyandotte law and order league, at the German M. E. church, last Tuesday, was well attended.

The committee appointed at the meeting a week previojs, to seloct an executive committee reported that they had appoint ed three committees, one on finances, one to procure evidence, and one to look after the jury trials. The committee reported that they deemed it wise not to divulge the names of the committeemen. The re port of committee was adopted. The meeting was addressed by Rev. Asling, of the German M.

E. church, Messrs. S. Simpson, F. W.

Soper and others. The meeting adjourned to meet at the Congregational church next Tuesday evening. -The best is the cheapest. Hill's Peer less Worm Specific is both the best and cheapest. W.

H. Baldridge. Any gentleman who wants a first class hat, including the celebrated Stetsen brand, at the lowest price, can always be accom modated at Taylor's, three doors east of postoffice. A family notorious for making it too hot for decent; neighbors, who drench their neighbors'yards with slops and annoy them by the use of scandalous language recent ly caused the arrest of a respectable lady who had resented their actions. The city at-torney and police judge did not allow evi ence to chow the character of the com plainants, and the lady was fined one dol lar and costs.

Many citizens advised her to appeal, which she does. Had it been necessary she could have had names repre senting hundreds of thousands of dollars on her appeal bond. From all that we can learn from reliable sources the arrest of the other parties would have been the proper thing. We do not mention names because the case will- go to the district court, and it would seem like trying to prejudice the case.

co, salt-sou. an Unfortunately there are a few teachers in the county who do not seem to care to be known outside their districts. It is the earnest desire of the executive committee that every teacher in the county should this year ally himself or herself with the county association; that every teacher should attend the meetings as far as practicable, and the citizens wherever the meetings are held. And further than this the committee desire the attendance and support of all interested in school work, and proposes to furnish a programme for such meetings the coming year that will repay any one for attending. It was said, and we believe justly, that Wyandotte county held the best teachers' meetings last year that were held in the state.

Let us not be outdone this year. And let us have a good strong delegation to go np to Topeka in December, that will impress the state association with the fact that "Little Wyandotte" is there.

A few evenings since several ladies of the Eastern Star, with their husbands, started for a Kansas City entertainment, in Frank Fulton's furniture wagon.

Rev. John Bennett, rector of St. Paul's, being detained, endeavored to overtake them. Across lots he hurried, down Armstrong street, where he stumbled and fell fiat into the dust. When near the iron bridge'he signaled the driver to stop, being too nearly breathless to call.

But being covered with dust from hat to boots, he jerked off his coat intending to shake it, when suddenly he found himself face to face with a burly Irishman who was drunk. Pat spat on his hands and squared np according to the Marquis of Queensberry rules, saying, "Bejabers if that's what ye want here goes bad luck to yees." Not caring for a sparring match Mr. Bennett made a semicircle route to the wagon. About 48 hours later Mr. B.

thought it a pretty good joke, and told it confidentially to a friend. Less Turns for Turner. Engineer W. H. Stalnaker, who owns a small farm near Turner, will present to the board of county commissioners at their next meeting, a map and plat for a new road, which, on paper, looks like a great improvement.

It lies in a straight line from Osage street in 'Armourdale, west past south side of Alcutt's new packing house, and, supposing a bridge were built across the Raw, would continue past the house of S. Perkins and past the Turner school house between the Lovelace and Hewitt farms to the river road, striking it on the soth side of the railway. The part of the road specially asked for, instead of the rebuilding of the bridge west of Mr. Barber's, extends west from the school house to the old road. Strong arguments favor it.

On the other hand it is said that the failure to rebuild the bridge would be a great detriment to Mr. Barber. As a rule the straightening and shortening of roads, if it does not add heavy grades, is an advantage. Furthermore there are lands in sections nineteen and twenty whose value would be greatly enhanced by a straight road. Such a road would also be better than the one under the north side of the bluff.

For through travel the the new road would undoubtedly be advantageous, but the parties who are to be heard are especially the citizens of Turner and vicinity.
