ocean voyage, ought to bo $2.50 each way. Baths and laundry bills according to taste and necessity. Say $10.00 all told. Mid day lunches, twelve days, in London and Paris say 50 cents a day, makes tho aggregate lc6B than $25.00 for tho trip This may be made lower by cutting lunches and laundry bills. Lunches in London and Paris may bo had from 15 cents up, just as in American cities, Of course if one drinks wine, orders high priced lunches, goes to tho theater every night and so on the extras may ho piled mountain high, but this is unnecessary. Tho expense of louring Europe is just liko tho expense of going to tho St Louis Exposition or Mardi Gras, or anywhere clso. There aro certain necessary expenses that can ho avoided and other unnecessary expenses that may bo indulged extravagantly. Tho sensible individual usually practices economy, but occasionally tho tourist loses his head and pays the fiddler. Sometimes people ask why not the extra expenses that an necessary in tho cost of tho trips. Simply because they can not be equalized. On the ocean some folks want all kinds of attention while others take caro of themselves and waiters expect compensation in proportion to what they ao. Some folks think they must bathe in salt' water twice a day while on the ocean, whilo others are content with fewer baths, and tbo same principle holds good in laundry and lunch bills. Ono person incurs light laundry bills whilo others go to the othor extreme and in lunching one will order a sandwich and cup of coffee and bo happy while another wants broiled pompano and blue points on tho half shell with chocolate and chamgaigno fringes, so that the only equitable thing to do is to leavo the individual to regulate this part of the expense. Tho price of tho trip includes every necessary item that can be equalized; and the cost of tho necessary things that can not be equalized need not bo more than 35 to 50 ecnt a day for the trip, need not exceed $20. to $25. This is purely a matter for tho individual aud may be made economical or extravagant, just as shopping bills may be almost nothing or ruu into extravagance. The actual extra necessary expenses of a trip abroad aro very light and only the thoughtless tourist makes them burdensome. For Sale.

Extras on Trip to Europe. The first question asked by the average individual who thinks of going to Europe is, "What about the extra expenses of such a trip?" The general, idea with the inexperienced ii that the price of the tour is only a tarter and that the extras Hah'e to bankrupt a millionaire. This is a scare row, Tho writer his never allowedhis extra sxpessas to run above aa average af 35 cents a day for the trip and any one nay hold

Mis Itctukiii eaid that a timelier should bnro hdr work ful'y planned mueh uliead of her oluns and that in assigning a loason a teacher should xuliitu tho mi in points so that the hi Id will know what to look for. Miss Martha Moore do.iorlhod hor idea of a good roeitatiou in She would bavo outline before pupils and oall on one of thorn to a aubordinato pirt then let tho lan ilieus it. She would have uup lioforili class and use them The iiistruotor said that most country schools wor idoally locslcd for tho dtudy of primary gooprutihy, I for a ohild must have his imagry well dovoloprd for fnrther goography work. Map drawing is abused by most teachers Miss Willie Clement thinks. She says that cither to much or not enough is an abuse Homo rnliof and industrial mapi mado by pupils were shown by Miss Florence Harris She said their value was as great as object lessons in the primary grades, that tho making of the map helps the ohilds memory and that the act of making has an industrial value, lVof King suggested that tho making of soils, erosion, otc . arc gMg on all around the schools and ihst i his fact could bo used as valrable Illustrations. Ho also said that mueh of the introdimtory pirts of the "Natural Complete Geography would be host left alone if the teacher doos not or cannot use illustrations while teaching. He thinks that the study of geography and tho making of maps should be commenced in the third grade. Tho first msp made should be tho map of the school room drawn to scale with objects in the room correctly located. The next map made could ho the school-yard drawn to onother scale or the home of the child to another scale. The map of the district could he made, ntrcams, roads and hills located. He also called the attention of the teachers to the fact that these maps would bring in arithmetic work. Ho naid that if the teacher neglected the illustrations o f practical nature, Bprings, streams, etc., around him the work in geography would lose much -it its value, that everything should bo made concrete and full of life. Adjonrmcnt until nino p. ni., Wednesday. After a song and tho roll call tho devotional exercises wcro conducted by Nov. M. K. Miller who spoke of tho responsibility of a tcaohers' position. H? said that all tcaohors should be christians and that they should constantly keep iu mind that a childs spiritual welfare may depend on them and that they should often ask themselves "What am I doing for humanity? After Kcv. M'ller'8 "Mrcs th regular work of tho Institute was continued. The first subject on tho program tho basis of arithmetic work as discuss. by J. It. Weill.

Ho advised teachers not lo ooufine themselves to problems given in toxt but let him do practical work Adjournment for a twenty minutes recess. After teccss the Instructor addressed the teachers on tho subject I pf tho morning's program, .AjTjUl0 tic. Ho said that a teacher should hav? three dofinito aims: to give the child ability to think in numbers; to give him skill, rapidity and accuracy in tho use of numbers; and to his power to apply the principles Ioarncd to his own experience. Ho mid mat arithruotio should bo nude s usable tool for the child, that problems should deal with things with which he comes in contact. Do not uso tho text loo much, mako problems which bring in his actual experience, market prices, measurement of actual things. We, the teachers, to have their pupils collect data and make problems. Kcv. Miller said that much of tho lack of interest on part of patrons of rural schools could be stopped by problems of a practical kind given at school and in many instances actual conditions on the farm could be im. proved in this way. Hollis Franklin said that all children could be interested in arithmetic if problems in which they were interested or which concerned their actual life were given. Mr. Matthews asked if a teacher hould ever tell a pupil to work as far as he could in any arithmetic lesson. Mrs. Perry thought it in allowable in some instances. In speaking of tho preparation, Clarence Thompson said that all pupils sbould understand that it is better to understand one problem than to get a doten answers. The Instructor said ho thought it best to pass over any part of toxt book that could not bo mado concrete. Miss Marian Hichards in speaking of tho recitation, said tho interest of no pupil should bo allowed to drop. She thinks interest can bo done by preparation on part of tcaohers and by well considered problems. (will be continued next week.)

ONE YEARS WORK IN AGRICULTURE WfcL FORM PART OF THE COORSE. Amugemcots have at last been madof .whereby all common.school gradcatcs of school age residing in uvuuvuen YHiumy win uc aamuicu to the Marion High School without paying tuition. This contract between the County Board and the Marion School Trustees is in accordance with tho provisions of tho law passed by the last Legislature, which seeks to furnish the pupils from tho rural districts, in every county of the statcf educational opportunities c(ual to those furnished the boys and girls of the cities. In order that tho Marion High School may meet tho requirments of tho law it is necessary to increase our course of study to four years and to employ an assistant. A course of study has been arranged which makcB the work offered hero second to that of no high school of the sumo size in tho State. An assistant will be selected immediately. It is now up to the people of the county outside Marion Graded School district to show whether they wish to take adl vantage of the liberal provisions offered by the County Board. You can afford to sacrifice mueh to give your boys and girls the fullest possible training for life. One year's work in Agriculture will probably form a part of the course; if not this year, certainly next year. Board can bo obtained as cheaply in Marion as anywhere. Rooms may bo rented and pupils board themselves thus reducing thoir expenses to tho minimum. Those wishing to be teachers in the near future will do well to take a high school training, as the time is coming, and that soon, when it will be necessary to havo n hiirli school education boforc they will bo licensed to teach in the district schools. This is now the roquMcineut in many states and Kentuoky will not long remain behind her sisters. Tho contract between the two school boards calls for the payment of a fixed sum regardless of the number of pupils who avail thcmeclvea of tho opportunity. So, it rests with you who pay the County School tax as to whether you get much or little for your money. If you wish to get value reoeived, send yonr boys and girls to the County High School. Jno. B.
