J., Oct 2'i.?Wood-j row Wilson, who was nominated by the Democrats for Governor of New Jersey, today resigned the presi? dency of Princeton University, and his place will he temporarily UUei hy John A. Stewart, of New York*, the senior trustee of the institution. | The day after Dr. Wilson's nomina? tion he indicated that he would re Bign as the head of Princeton, and the action taken today is, therefore, no surprise. Dr. Wilson, who was present at the rr.eeting today of the board of trus? tees, preserted a letter to the board setting forth that he had been nominated for Governor by the Dem? ocrats of New Jersey, and that he deemed it his duty to accept. He asked that the resignation be ac? cepted at once. The board then unanimously ad? opted a resolution accepting the resignation with deep regret and a committee was appointed to prepare resolutions for adoption by the board in recognition of Dr. Wilson's dis? tinguished services. In his letter of resignation Dr. Wilson referred feel? ingly to the institution he had so long loved and sought to serve, and! concluded as follows: "It is my earnest prayer that the 1'nlverslty may go forward without halt or hindrance in tho path of thorough scholarship and thought? ful service to the nation." Dr. Wilson had been connected with Princeton for twenty years, and was made president of the in? stitution in 1902. President Pro Tern Stewart has been a member of the board since April, 1868. Mr. Stewart is a form? er president of the United States Trust Company, of New York city. The board today reported the re? ceipts of gifts amounting to $250, 602 in cash and securities amount? ing to $126,500 since the June meet ing of the board. VKRDICT AGAINST LIFE TERM?

Clemson Extension Work. Article Realising the need of industrial education, the State Board placed the subject of agriculture in the public school curriculum. The good to be derived from 'his step cannot, at this early date, be estimated. The average child, when it enters school, knows more about agriculture than any other profession, and most of them go back to this calling when they have finished the public school course and the sad part is, they go back little better fitted to carry on their work then when they entered school. They have their minds filled with facts about almost every con? ceivable subject except the Import? ant one, the one by which they are to derive a Using. The interest In the teaching of ag? riculture is but a part of a much larger question, the movement for teaching by means of things that have come within the student's ex? perience, and for teaching something that will be of some material use to the student when school days are over. Unless our education is of some practical use, time is ill spent in obtaining it. When the subject was placed In the public school course, very few of the teachers were pre? pared to teaeo it since their train? ing had not included it. Realizing the state of affairs, the trustees of Clemson College created the position of Rural School Agriculturist. The work of this position is to assist the teacher in any way possible in pre? senting the subject of agriculture to the pupil. This is done by co? operating with the teacher, visiting the school at regular Intervals, and giving help by suggestions or any other way by which the suject may be presented to tho pupil in a help? ful manner. The plan at present is to select a few schools In different sections of the State, and visit each of these once a month, staying a day or two days if necessary and work with both teachers and pupils. It will not be possible for one man o work all the schools of the State, but by working with as nany as possible in different sections, others may profit by the work of those visited. Since the principal thing in teaching is to keep the pupil interested (for if we can keep the interest up, the pro? cess of obtaining the knowledge will follow naturally), the visits to the schools will be to work with the pu? pils as well as the teachers. This work with tne pupil will be of dif? ferent nature as circumstances dif? fer. With some, clubs of an agricul? tural nature will be organized and prizes awarded. With others contests of different nature will be given, as for instance, corn judging contests. With still others, reading courses will be given, and essays written by the pupil on agricultural subjects. The underlying reason why such teaching is desirable is because it brings the school In touch with th-> home life. As Mr. Warren of Cor? nell says. ' The teaching of agricul? ture will make ?etter farmers, who will make more money,'* and it is only by this means that we can build up our schools and make our coun? try life what it should be?the most pleasant, profitable, and independent of all lives. Since it will be possible, as above stated, to visit all the schools of the State, it Will be necessary for the teachers, o; any one interested. to make application for the work. This can be done by writing the Super? intendent Extension Work, Clem? son College, S. C, as this work is directly under the Extension Divis? ion C. B. HA DD EX. Rural School Agriculturist.
