THE PAXTON HIGH SCHOOL REELECTOR 2! were, no one would wisely take it as , uhority. Perhaps going to the base of the natter, the issue between the two classes is this: The one believes a Ting is true because it is in a text- look, or stated upon authority; the ot'.er believes it is in the text-book,or s atei upon authority because it is true. The eyes of the oive, then, are upon the truth of the matter, the ey-’S of the other upon the authority. Since the real truth of anything is its agreement with the design of it, and with the forces operating to pro- duce it, it follows that the person whose constant inquiry is about the truth of the thing, develops more completely and more widely than the one whose inquiry is about the facts, the authority of it. I doubt the truth of the proverb that it is better to have all of one thing than some of all things. It may be better knowledge, but not such good wisdom; better un- derstanding, but not such good judg- ment. If the work of creation were finish- ed, if all truth w ere known, if all authority were infallible, still it were be ter to turn aside from authority, seek the truth directly, and become personally acquainted with what of c-ea ion our limitations permit. No one. speaks the truth but one who reets it face to face; upon no one dues authority fall perfectly whole- somely but him who is able to test the validity of the authority.— Select- ed. GENERAL NOTES Mr. Bainum attended the Sta'e Teacher’s Institue at Springfield, dur- ing the holidays. He has attended this institute for twenty-five years. Ti is is surely a fine record and we all hope he will have the pleasure of attending many more. Ecr.lj ''Icffett, accompanied by his mother, Mrs.J.H. Moffett, has gone to Hammond. La., to spend the remain- der of the winter. Donald is one of our best students and we are sorry to have him leave. Miss Pauline Koonse has resumed her wfork in the high school. With this name enrolled, the number of pu- pils is 130, GO boys and 04 girls. We are very proud of this record. We expected to have a letter from Miss Hepburn in this number but on account of sickness in the family, where she is visiting, she did not have time to write one. WE STILL HAVE A LARGE SUPPLY OF ROLLER SKATES AND THE LARGEST LINE OF ICE SKATES IN TOWN. OUR PRICES ARE RIGHT. C. A.
