ChiIdren's Trees.

One of the most useful lessons which
may be impaired TO child Is thorough
instruction in the method of planting a
tree. In country like ours, where
reverence for natural beauty was so
long in danger OF becoming one OF the
forgotten virtues, it would be well II
parents would foster 1t by such means
as lie in their power. Arbor Day, which
is an excellent thought, will do much
perhaps in this line, but cannot rival
instruction at home, which from the
nature of things may be far moro thor
ough and practical, as it may be made
to take deeper hold upon the child's
affection. A tree planted by the teacher
or by two or three of the older pupils In
the sight OF the others is OF course an
object lesson OF no slight value. But
tree, shrub, or vine planted in the home
grounds by the child itself, with some
iudiciouS help and comment from the
parent, becomes at once source OF
pleasure and pride; its welfare is care
fully guarded, and win prove hence
forth fruitful teacher OF patience,
thoroughness, and order.
These early weeks OF the meilowine
earth and ascending sun, when vegeta
tion is awakening and the soil is ripe tC
receive the dormant plants, suggest the
hope that some OF these lessons. thus
latent in it, may not be lost to the gen
Grafton OF little men and women coming
up all about us.-BoSton Transcript.

Little News Received.

PARIS, May 24-The French public are
chagriued and iucensed by the meagreness
of the Official news regarding the trouble
between the French and Siamese in the
Mokong Valley. The details Of the attack
on the French Aunamite garrison at hnong
are still wanting, and the affair, notwlth-
standing its evident importance and the
serious loss suffered by the French, is
barely mentioned in the official dispatches.
The newspapers give voice 10 complaints
OF bad management on the part OF the
French authorities entrusted with the de-
fence Of French interests on the Siamese
frontier mingled with invectives against
Great Britain, which power is accused OF
backing the Siamese in their hostile attl-
tude toward the French. The French
government appears to be influenced by
the outcry and it is reported that M.
Verneville, the French resident superior
in Cambodia, has been recalled.

1.-THE Proprietor OF the Herald" In
which is denied the report tha5 hr.
james Gordon Bennett cOntemplates
turning the Herald into joint stock
company. The editorial then says;
"The present proprietor, it is true,
has in view the formation Of cO-opera-
tive society, but one for the sole benefit
Of the Herald staff, including the gen.
eral manager, city editor, news editor,
night editor, all editors, correspondents,
reporters, artists, cashier, clerks, fore
men OF press and composing rooms,
proof readers, cOmpositors, printers,
exchange readers, shipping clerks, tele-
graph clerks, advertising clerks, mes
sengers, porterS, fremeu memoers-for
they are all members Of the Herald stan
are they not?-and not for any
stock iObbing or speculative purposes, as
has been done so often IN England ana
America. This cooperative society may
be formed at any moment by the pro-
prietor whenever he thinks proper. The
founder Of the Herald disposed OF IL

struction OF will, as IN the Tilden Will
case not long ago, the proprietor of the

OF its founder and direct the disposition
OF the Herald without outside interven-

perpetuating the property in this way

significance other than that its further
retention was deemed unnecessary"

EnrIY Imnressions.

Every one must have found how diff
cult II is to eradicate early impressions,
or 70 overcome prejudice acquired later
in life. Our first impressions cling to
us with teuacity which no change OF
place or situation can destroy. The
home Of our childhood, the friends and
associations of our youthful days, form
images Ia our remembrance which can
never be wholly obliterated. The wan
derer from his native country may in
his adopted home meet new associations
and acquire more wealthy connections
and higher standing in society than
he held in the land which gave him
birth, still humble dwelling in which
he was reared, the partners Of his early
Joys and sorrows, the habits he was &C
customed TO 10 youth, are all 'green
spots" in his "reminiscences, continually
watered from the fount Of never failing
memory.

Comes out Against the Proposed Short
ening of the Course-Dates and Purses
Named
ROCHESTER,, n. Y, May 24.-The
Stewards Of the Grand Trotting Circuit
met here to-day and arranged the pro-
gramme for the summer meetings thus;
Pittsburg, July 10-14; Detroit, July
1921; Cleveland, July 24-29; Buffalo,
August GIL: Rochester, August Ills;
Springfield, August 2l-25; Hartford,
August 2S 10 September /; New York,
September 40; Philadelphia, Septem-
Der 11-15.
The follow resolutions which are OF
so great interest TO horsemen were
adopted:
Pesolusl, That the meetings OF the
circuit be trotted under the rules OF the
National Trotting Association as they
stand to-day, unless specified to the con-
trary by any member.
Resolved, That the Grand Circuit OPP
pose the proposed change in the pres
ent distance rule as inimical to the rul-
ing sport, an unjust hardship TO pat
rons of the turf who pay entrance
money, detrimental TO the business OF
the Association, productive of tame
racing thereby depriving the public
who pay at the Of spirited and exciting
contests among good fields Of horses;
in short, bad at all points, and most
unwise movement.
ResolUed, that the managers o.
any Association desiring shorter dis
tances may have it by advertising
special clause in the programme, but
that we regard it as unjust and arbitrary
TO change the rule making 1t neces-
sary for an association, opposing the
change TO insert a special condition In
their programme.
The total purses for the different
meetings are:
Pitts5urg $4,000; Detroit $4,000;
Cleveland S32, 900; Buffalo $4,000; Ro-
chester $50, 900; Springfield $4,000;
Hartford $40, 600; New York, 100000;
Philadelphia $4,000.

Aluminium is gaining q place among
industrial metals. Lately there has
appeared In the show-windows Of fancy
goods stores variety Of articles made
from aluminium. Ia appearance these
goods are lite, II any, inferior to sill
yer articles. and they are less liable TO
tarnish from the action OF sulphur
gases. The metal is well adapted for
numerous things in common use, such
as pocket match-safes, cigar-caseS, pen
cil-cases, and even watchcaseS. 1t will
be more and more used for these and
other purposes al time advances. Oae
OF the disabilities that has prevented its
more rapid Introduction into various In
dustries has been the lack OF suitable
soldiers for joining 1t after it has been
reduced to required forms. According
to an article In the Engineering M0Gd,
zinc, however, several recipes for sol
ders for aluminium working have lately
been brought out which promises to be
OF great value 10 the various trades In
which aluminium finds a use.
