We may ask, Has any actual difference
been ascertained between the growth OF
the children of the favored class and
that of the less favored child: Do fresh
air and good food and exercise and the
absence of exhausting labor tell not only
upon the general health and happiness OF
oar children. but upon their height and
weight and the development of their
chests? Does nurture tell in actual fs-
ures upon the size of a man: To this we
may answer yes.
1t should be remarked in this connec-
ton that in regard to their actual origi-
nal endowment Of bone and muscle. ma.
ture is impartial in her favors. that her
children are born free and equal in this
respect. and that circumstances as re-
CARDS poverty or wealth or class, whether
Of king or peasant, have little or no in
fiuence upon the size of the new born.
1t is also noteworthy that the tendency
in the beginning is always toward the
normal symmetrical development Of the
body, and Speaking Of the rule) that
children are not born deformed, or with
the deficiencies and irregularities we
sometimes note in them later. Out Of
23,2OO infants observed by Chaussier.
only l22 were found to present any de-
Walton from The normal. and these ex-
ceptions We're actual monstrosities. while
from 1920 cases observed at a mater.
mite in Paris only Is were deformed.-

WHILE it is entirely unnecessary to do
an! 'electioneering" in matters pending
before the school election TODAY. we
merely perform a duty in calling the at
tention OF those interested, to the fact
that there will be an election today
that it will be held at the school house
between the hours of > and 6 o'clock D.
m: that W. \. Haynes and ii. r. King
are candidates for trustees without
known opposition. and that the PROPOSE
ton of issuing bonds to the amount of
$1,000 for increased school facilities vii
be voted upon. This is the one occasion
when woman's suffrage can be exercised

as are willing TO brave the test regarding

THE REFORM SCHOOL,

Judge Strevell. II. Ii. Wiley and G. Il.
Middleton yesterday received notice Of
their appointment 10y Gov. Richards as
trustees of the state reform school.
which was located by the last legisla-
ture at Miles City. The appointments
will doubtless meet with the approba.
ton of all who know the gentlemen. and
guarantees for the new institution a
guardianship in the crucial stages of its
early existence. that will zealously work
for its best interests. and accomplish the
best results possible with the means at
hand. The act creating the reform
school requires. we believe. that the
trustees as soon as appointed organize
and proceed to select a sit for building.
decide upon plans and commence work
before June lst. As Only two months
intervene. it will be seer that the board
have plenty of work laid out for them in
the near future. Regarding the site. il
seems proper to suggest that this should
be donated. The onl, institution located
thus far-the agricultural college at
BOzeman-received rom the county of
Gailatih a generous gift of lands for
both experiments farm and building
site for the college. This donation while
recognized as a generous act by the press
OF the state. was nevertheless uniyer-
sally regarded as being no more than
the locality favored should have done
and it seems to be the general opinion
that neither the state nor the approptia-
lions shall be at any cost for grounds
connected with any of the state institu-
tions. With this feeling prevalent Miles
City can scarcely afford to run counter
to it by expanding money for a site for
the reform school. unless the price be
such a nominal figure as to be equiya-
lent to a gift. Having a better oppor-
tunity of noting the feeling of the state
at large in this matter than our readers
have. we feel justified in bringing the !
suggestion to the notice not only of the
newly appointed trustees. but of the cit.
liens as well.

Two notable conventions will meet in
Miles City this month. On the 18th
inst. the Woolgrowers Of Custer county
will meet and deliberate upon the cop-
dition of their industry and e~nyolye
plans for the betterment Of il. On the
next day the annual meeting If the
Montana Stocksrowers association will
convene and remain in session ty-a or
more days. This latter brings together
representative cattlemen from AL parts
OF the Union. az well as a large cantin-
gent of railroad managers and superin-
tendents whose lines are interested in
the transportation of cattle. Both CON
ventions will be marked by some kind
al social recognition rendered bv the
people OF this city. the details of which
are yet to be determined. Next year we
will have an auditorium in which to
meet and offer entertainment. This
time we will have to do the next best
thing. but behind it will be a hearty
