Gates furnished the open ing sensation in the Investigation when he revealed the history of the United States Steel corporation. Pres ent at the birth of the greatest steel manufacturing concern in the world, he described how it was the natural outcome of what he described as the refusal ot Andrew Carnegie to be bound by the "gentlemen's agree ments" that marked the early day ot open competition In the steel busi ness. He told of millions lost and created almost in a breath; how the Carnegie mills, appraised at 1160,000,000, were recognized as worth $320,000,000; the grim clash In the formative days, when John D. Rockefeller was dis suaded from joining In the creation of the corporation, and the manner In which others were prevented from engaging in the steel trade. Relating how Carnegie had been V ' forced to abandon plans for extending his steel business. Gates frankly ad' mittd the gigantic Industrial combination was formed to throttle competition, and he surprised the committee with the further information that when John D. Rockefeller had sought to enter' the steel business a deal had been put through by which th tandard Oil magnate was forced to sell out lor 40 cents Jg jn the accounts of the absorptloi y the United; stj m Steep on that deal should do with it should.bf examined, r Jona w .;.

L. mat DOOK, ana ine leacniugs unnwut out therein. Let the class listen care fully to each essay, and at the closo dictate a set of questions, which you) have written beforehand, on the quar ter's lessons as a whole, having th class write answers to the. question as they are read. The teacher will write pn slips or cardboard or heavy manlla paper a series of questions on the lessons of the quarter, about five questions on each lesson. These questions will cover the principal facts of the Ias i. and will be so framed that th answers can be very brief, yet ade quate. Lay the slips of paper, face down, on the class table or on a large book held In the lap, mix them up. and have the class draw them one at a time, in turn. The scholar that draws a question will read It aloud. and then answer it if he can, retain ing the slip. If he does not answer correctly, or at all, the next on hi left will try to answer It, and so on around the class. The scholar that answers It will hold the slip, and th scholar that holds the largest num ber at the end of the recitation is de clared the victor In the little contest Announce this plan a week In ad vance, that the class may study for it Take a series of lesson pictures.
