Patriotic Quotations."

PUBLISHED BY THE WHITAKER & RAY CO.

The hero of time is the hero of thought;

The hero who lives is the hero of peace; And braver his battles than ever were fought,

From Shiloh back to the battles of
Greece.
-Joaquin Miller.

As at early dawn the stars shine forth, even while it grows light, and then, as the sun advances, that light breaks into bands, and streaming lines of color, the glowing red and the intense white striving together, and ribbons the horizon with bars effulgent, so on the American flag, stars and beams of colored light shine out together; and wherever this flag comes, and men behold it, they see in its sacred emblems no ramping lion, no fierce eagle, no embattled castle or insignia of imperial authority; they see the symbols of light. It is the banner of dawn. It means liberty!-Henry Ward Beecher.

Upon my fresh, green sod

No king has walked to desolate,
But in the valleys Freedom sits and sings
And on the heights above:

Upon her brows are olive boughs,
And in her arms a dove.-Ina Coolbrith.

Our country-whether bounded by the St. John's and Sabine, or however otherwise bounded or described, and be the measurement more or less, still our country, to be cherished in all our hearts, to be defended by all our hands.-Toast at Faneuil Hall on the 4th of July 1862, by Robert C. Winthrop.

Her heritage, from sea to sea,

A land that owns no craven's right,
Where but to breathe is to be free,
The flag the symbol of her might.
-Madge Morris.

The men to make a state must be brave men. I mean the men that walk with open face and unprotected breast. I mean the men that do, but do not talk. I mean the men that dare to stand alone. I mean the men that are to-day where

[blocks in formation]

they were yesterday, and will be there to-morrow. I mean the men that can stand still and take the storm.-George Washington Doane.

So, then, our last words shall be for the Union. The Union will guard the fame of its defenders; will keep alive for mankind the beacon-lights of popular liberty and power; and its mighty heart will throb with delight at every true advance in any part of the world towards republican happiness and freedom.-George Bancroft.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of Testimonials.

Enterprising School Journalism.

The Popular Educator, the Public The International Education Series

School Journal, and the Pacific Educational Journal contained in January an article on "Vertical Writing," by the author of the D. C. Heath system of vertical penmanship. This article was published, not as an advertisement, but as a high-class, valuable contribution. It read all right in the Public School Journal, but to have to read it the same month in the other journals seemed too much of a good thing. It also seems strange when there is so much good school literature that the Popular Educator and the Pacific Educational Journal should copy an entire article, including illustrations, from the Public School Journal. Enough said!

The Orpheum.

At the Orpheum there is a lot of famous singers and comedians. The most notable is Rachel Walker. She has a voice of wonderful compass, and a personalty that makes her one of the best drawing attractions that the Orpheum has ever had. The management of this house has succeeded in pleasing the public, and when the public is pleased the profits are good. The Orpheum is on O'Farrell street, between Stockton and Powell. A visit to the city is not complete without a quiet visit to the Orpheum.

T. JOSEPH'S COLLEGE, San Jose,

Jesus, was opened for the reception of students on the first of August, of the Columbian year 1892. Built of brick with terra-cotta trimmings, it is a handsome structure, while its interior arrangements place it on a par with any of the other educational institutions of the Garden City. The college is divided into three distinct departments-preparatory, commercial, and classical. Each department contains a full complement of very capacious schoolrooms well lighted and ventilated, entirely free from the noise of the streets, and furnished with all modern conveniences. There are besides a debating-room, a sodality chapel, a library-room and an elegant exhibition hall for lectures, exhibitions, and entertainments. There are two courses of instruction - the commercial and the classical. Upon the completion of the commercial course the students will receive a college certificate.

The Most Authoritative.-Its production required the co-operation of 247 editors
and experts for nearly five years. Every branch of science, philosophy, literature,
art, etc., is represented on the editorial staff by some person peculiarly qualified
for the work of defining the terms pertaining to that branch, and recognized as an
authority on the subject.

The Most Complete.-It defines over
300,000 words and phrases, one-third more
than are defined in the large and expensive
Century Dictionary (6 volumes), and more
than twice as many as are defined in the
latest editions of Webster (International)
and Worcester.

Constructed on Original Plans.-It
more than doubles the uses of a dictionary
by introducing scores of new features, sug-
gested by leading scholars of the world.
These, together with its superior treatment
of the subjects, and the extreme care taken
to secure accuracy, carry it beyond the
point of competition with any other refer-
ence work.

proper names in appendix, 5,000 illustra-
tions, of which 400 are in color, etc.
The Most Costly of Literary Enter-
prises-The total amount expended in
the production of the Dictionary was about
$1,000,000-an average of $4,000 a week for the five years that were required for its
preparation. The new features and the care exercised to prevent errors, made the
average cost per page $450-three times as great as that of any other dictionary

ever published. E. D. BRONSON & CO., Pacific Coast Agents,

To Consider Educational Matters. The Code Commissioners have arranged for a special session to be held at the Capitol some time in June next to hear suggestions looking to an economical and effective administration of the schools of the State. State Superintendent Black has appointed two committees, one from the Council of Education and another from the county and city Superintendents, to consider what amendments may be deemed necessary in carrying out the wishes of the commission. Practical suggestions from all citizens interested in popular education will be thankfully received and carefully considered.
