CHRISTMAS SHOP EARLY received little education, only such as the meager schools of that time and place afforded. : At 19 he came to America. He landed in Duquoin, a mining town of | Illinois, on a Friday.: By the fol- lowing Monday he was down in a coal mine at work. When he had been employed a little while, one day he heard the whistle ‘blow to stop work and dis- covered that in this country the coal mines were operated only two or three days a week in summer. This left him with several days un- occupied. His companions put in their leisure time loafing, playng and drinking. This boy, Joe Harker was his name, had, however, been born with a desire to know. He wanted to go to school, but could not afford it. Then he said to himself: “Well, all that a teacher does is to ask you questions and scold you if you don’t know the answers. I will ask myself questions, and I'll look up the answers, and I'll scold myself even more roundly than a teacher.” So he bought him a Ray’s Third Part Arithmetic and a Warren's Physical Geography, and dug in. Before many months he knew both | books from cover to cover. Then he went to the county super- intendent of schools and asked him i he would—not ask but answer | questions once a week. intendent consented, liked the boy and helped him along. When Jo was 23 the superintend- ent said to him one day: “I've a vacancy in the negro school here, Jo, and I believe you could fill it. Will you try? If so, I will give you a teacher’s certificate.” The boy tried. There he found himself. When he stood up to teach those colored boys and girls he knew that teaching was Yet we like | | his life work.

Twenty- seven years ago he was made president of the Illinois Wo- man’s college at Jacksonville. He is there now. He is recognized as one of the, foremost educators of America. I write this in the hope that many a boy who thinks he does not ‘have a chance’ may be encouraged by the example of Jo Harker, who discover- ed that he could “teach himself,” and whom we would not dare to call Jo Harker now, but Doctor Joseph R. Harker of Illinois. — — ALL STATE FOOTBALL TEAM Here is the third of a series to be published by The Bulletin.

The work will be given in five divisions as fol- . lows: The Summer Normal (June 21 to August 14); The Rural Life School (June 7 to July 17); The Col- lege (June 7 to August 28); School of Cotton Classing (June 7 to July 17). J. O. Morgan, Director of Sum- mer Session announces a little dif- ference in the organization of the session as compared with former years and calls attention to these dif- ferences as follows: (1) The Summer Normal division has been made of eight weeks dura- tion rather than six weeks duration, as has been the case in former years. This change is a result of recent ac- tion of the State Department of Ed- ucation—requiring that all Summer Normals continue for not less than eight weeks exclusive of eraminations The Summer Normal Examinations, which are given by the State De- partment of Education, will be held at the College on August 16, 17, 18, and 19. These examinations will be conducted immediately following the close of our Summer Normal.

If a good qual- ity of velvet bean meal or peanut meal were obtainable, it could re- place some of the cotton seed meal at perhaps a cheaper cost. These pro- ducts would need to be finely ground and mixed in any proportion nec- essary to get the desired proportion with reference to protein, ete. This feed could be cheapened some by ad- ding ground alfalfa and a little mo- lasses, though these feeds would tend to reduce the quality.—C. M. Evans. rr epee.

The farmer must use from his shoulders up as well as his muscles, and unless he uses his brains he had better leave the farm and study medicine or law or |go into some business that does not require as much brains as farming. ————— 1920 , The | i ———————————— the %
