Miss Work Is the daughter of Mrs. A.

such power was placed in their hands.
The starter should be supreme at the
trying position OF any, and the necessary
power should be given to him to en-
force his instructions. Mr. Rowe's work
says 1t is because his powers have been
taken away and the boys will not obey
him. This being the case, the Stewards
