OF KENTUCKY

The recent celebrations of Homocoming week occupied BO muchattention that the Fourth of Julywas celebrated loss vigorously than

usualTherewas a notable Fourth of

July celebration at Winston in Eatillcounty due largely to the efforts ofJudge Thorp Addresses by Pres ¬

ident Front Cot Demarco and CaptGoo M Jackson of Wickliffe

The return of BO many sons anddaughters of Kentucky front otherstates is likely to have a good effecthero at homo Most of thou formerKcntuckians have found homes inthe newer more liberal and progres ¬

t sive communitiea in the West andNorth They come back with loyalaffection for tboold Kentucky homebut they tell us plainly that a considerftblo element in Kentucky issomewhat sleepy and clings tooclosely to the ideals of the past

Tho ladles of the Federation ofWomens Clubs in their recant meetingot Mt Sterling brought out thoimportant fact that the people ofKentucky are moro dilatory in send

children to the publicschools than the people of naystate in the Union save one Ourrural schools for this year are justbeginning anti now is tho time for usto improve tho record

CITIZENWHAT LIFE IS FOR

We arc not put into this world to be happy nor tobe comfortable but to work The world does not

owe me a living unless I have earned it A man hasto live you sometimes hear some one say as excuse for get-ting

¬

his living by begging stealing or doing something elsewhich is of no value to the community It is a lie Theworldwould be better off without the man who wont work

I cant get what my work is worth 10 says some oneThat may be true orit may be false but it is not very im-

portant¬

The only important thing to ask is Am Idoing all the work Ican and the work which is mostvaluable to the world which lies within my powerIf you are not doing the most and best work you can youarc cheating yourself and the world

Brain work is generally more valuable and often moreexhausting than work with the hands and the rest of thebody Emperor William of Germany and President Roose-

velt¬

do a great deal more hard work than thousands of

socalled laboring men who envy themThere is plenty of work for everyone lying

near him For some of it you wont be paid in silver andcopper but the principal part of the wages is the strengthand skill you get from doing the work and the goodconscience you have after doing your duty

Find the best work you can do and do it withyour might and God will pay your wages sooneror later and they will be paid in full

Practical Arithmetic forthe Rural Schools-

By Prof D Lewis

ARITHMETICAL METHODS AND FORMS

In deciding the question as to what methods andforms should be used three things must be consideredThey must be 1st clear 2d calculated to require aclear understanding before being explainedj3d of thegreatest possible educational value The second ofthese requires that the forms be full enough to guidethe thought in explanation but not so full as to makethem crutches for crippled minds to lean upon Thethird often gives the deciding argument in favor ofoneof two good forms equally valuable from the two firstpoints of view The forms to be givon are not merelyfrom the writers theory but derived from his practicalexperience

MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISIONnlreadybeenting with concrete numbers the following laws be ob ¬

served 1st The multiplier must always be abstract 2dWhen the multiplicand is concrete the product must beconcrete and of the same kind as the multiplicand 3dWhen the divisor and dividend are concrete the quotientmust be abstract 4th When the dividend is concreteand the divisor abstract the quotient must be concreteand the same as the dividend

These principles well adhered to will force thepupil into a clear analysis more than any one thing thatcan be done and will prove of great value in futurework

FACTORS DIVISORS AJf D MULTIPLESFactoring is one of the most important topics in

arithmetic and should be given much thought care andtime Always state the factors of a number in theequational form thus 35 = 5 X 7 and for pupilsthis may be changed with profit to 5 X 7 1

In finding the G C Dor L C M first find thefactors of the numbers and from them take the commonfactors for the G C D and the different factors eachused the greatest number of times it is found in anyone of them for L C M This method has a greatadvantage over the old form of statement in two ways1st It gives practice in factoring and 2d In every op-eration

¬

the child must have clearly in mind the funda ¬

mental idea of what the G C D and L C M are andtheir relation to each other

Model solution rFind the G C D and L C M of 00 250 and 270

1 00 = 2X3X3X62260 = 2X5X5X5 V

3 270 = 2X3 X 3X3X5GCD = 2X6 saIO

And LCM2X3X3X 3X5X5X5 0750

This solution is neat and clear if the principles in ¬

volved are understood but hopeless ifthey are not
