France has been doing giants
work since 1870, exclaims the New
York Herald. After the Sedan disas
ter she started in to pay war idemnity
to Germany that would have made
most nations tremble. She shook her
tawny name and millions dropped out.
Then she pocketed loss of hundreds
of millions more in the Panama ditch
enterprise, shrugged her shoulders, to
be sure, fretted and fumed good deal
but soon fell back into her usual good
nature with plenty left for rainy
day. And when England was in
financial straits, she picked up stin
another pile of millions and sent them
across the Channel to save her old
time enemy from panic.

A Spanish California Wedding.

Nothing was more attractive than the
wedding cavalcade on its way from the
brides house to the Mission Church.
The horses were more richly caparisoned
than for any other ceremony, and the
brides nearest relative or family repre-
sentative carried her before him, she
sitting ON the saddle with white satin
shoe in loop of golden or silver braid,
while he sat on the bear-skin covered
anquera behind. The groom and his
friends mingled with the BRIDES party,
all on the best horses that could be OBJ
tanned, and they rode gaily from the
ranch house to the Mission, sometimes
fifteen or twenty miles away In April
and May, when the land was covered
with wild flowers, the light hearted
troop rode along the edge of the uplands,
between hill and valley, crossing the
streams, and some of the young horse
men, anxious to show their skill, would
perform oil the feats for which the
Spanish Californians were famous. After
the wedding, when they returned to
Iead in the feasting, the bride was car
ried on the horse of the groomsman.
One of the customs which was always
observed at the wedding was to wind a
silken tasseled string or silken sash
fringcd with gold, about the necks of
the bride and groom, binding them to-
gether as they knelt before the altar for
the blessing of the priest. \ charming
custom among the middle and lower
classes was the making of the satin shoes
by the groom for the bride. A few
weeks before the wedding he asked his
betrothed for the measurement of her
foot, aud made the shoes with his own
hands; the groomsman brought them to
her on the wedding day.-[The Cen

According to the New Yol

According to the New York News
the number Of children enrolled in the
public schools in the United States is
in excess of $4,000, 900. For this
great army, $50, 900 teachers in round
numbers are required, while the an.
nual cost is not far from 1926, ZOO, 900.
The figures almost stagger the imagi-
nation. The education of our little
ones is paramount to all other ques-
tons. Important as it is to every
civilized nation, it is especially so to
us, among whom education is the cor.
ner stone of the structure upon which
our institutions rest. Therefore, what
further effort is necessary, what infiu.
ences are to be stimulated, what
methods are best in order to increase
and waste no money, what
high ideals are to be put before our
'hildren-these are matters of pro-
found concern.

Her Hickory Switch Made Man Of
Him.


Twenty years or more ago Mrs. John
NJ Crowell, then Miss Grant, was the
teacher of country school near Yellow
Springs, Ohio. Among her pupils was
an orphan by whom the principal far
mer Of the district had found in Illinois
and taken to raise. The boy was capable
and bright, but he lacked application,
and on that account was never prepared
in his lessons. Miss Grant complained
of the boys shortcomings to his adopted
father, and was advised to wear hick-
DRY CAD out upon him.
She hesitated, for the boy was big and
strong, although good-natured. But the
father Insisted, and, after warning the
boy several times, she one day used the
hickory upon him IN the presence of the
entire school. 1t humbled the lad, and
it was feared he would run away that
night. He was accordingly watched.
But instead of running away he took o
candle and went to his room, where the
light was seen to burn the greater part OF
the night. The next day the boy was in
his place as. usual, and throughout the
day he was perfect in his lessons. The
reformation was complete, and the or
phan became famous in the district.
Miss Grant came West and married
Mr.. Crowell. A few years ago, while
Mr. Crowell was still in the service OF
the Post Office Department, he was rid.
ing over the Fort Scott and Wichita
road. The conductor was new to the
business and was averse to recognizing
Mr.. Crowell's credentials. But the
president of the road happened to be in
his car, attached to the rear of the train,
and the credentials were referred to him.
Pretty soon the president appeared in
person, and led Mr.. Crowell back into
lis car.
'sYour wife, sir. made me president OF
this roadt' he said. IF it had not been
for whipping she once gave me ] would
now be ploddiDg on farm"
II was Francis Tiernan, rich and ia.
nous, all from the school-teacher's dis.
cipline. Mr.. Tiernan soon after called
in his special car at Atchison with his
wife to see Mrs. Crowell He is now a
millionaire and is building railroad
from Salt Lake City to Los Angeles. =
