CHILDREN HELP THE TOWN.
now the Young People of Montclair, N. j.,
Contribute to Its Iseauty.

There are about 500 children i'll
Montclair, N. j., all pupils in the pub
lie schools, wearing tho little colored
badges of tho Children's Auxiliary Town
Improvement association, to remind
them that they have pledged themselves
to do what they can to mako Montclair
a moro healthful and beautiful place to
1.-Two in. The pledge which the children
have signed i'll tho schools was sent out
by the Women's Town Improvement as
ISOLATION and reads rs follows:
"Wc, the undersigned, agree to work
together to make Montclair Il happier
place in which to 1.-Two by trying to re-
move everything which would make it
less healthful and less beautiful and by
adding anything VIC can which will
make it moro healthful and moro beau
tiful."
Some time ago the W. 7. LA. pur-
chased a large number Of metal cans.
They were painted bright red and
We're placed Oh tho sidewalks of the
principal streets near the curb, upon
Which was printed in plain letters a re-
quest that pieces of paper and rubbish
be thrown into them instead of into tho
street.
The cans were the means of collecting
large quantity of waste paper, but not
all, and daily scraps of paper We're seen
blown hither and thithcr with each gust
Of wind.
Since the children's auxiliary was
formed the principal thoroughfares have
been devoid of what the W. I. /. A. has
called rubbish. When piece of paper
is seen, two or three children start i'll
close pursuit. Aftcrits capture it is put
i'll the nearest can.
At the intersection of three avenues
tho women went to tho expense of sod
ding and making handsome green
where formerly there was dusty place
in summer and q mudhole i'll winter.
Tho children in their haste to go from
ono street to another did not hesitate to
run across tho triangle. Now the chill
dren i'll tho neighborhood vic with ono
another in identifying this bit of
ground.
At the timo tho children received
their little red, white and blue favors
they were given lecture as to what
was expected of them if they signed the
pledge, and among other things was
that they We're not to make bontires in
the woods, i'll the fields or by the road
side; that they were not to take other
peoples fruit or pick other peoples flow
ers; that they We're not to run across
corners where some ono is trying to
make tho grass grow; that they were to
be kind to other children and to poor
dumb animals, and that they We're to
remember to do unto others as they
would like them to do to themselves
The women havo also taken upa cru
SADIE against tho placing of advertise
ments high up on trees and posts i'll the
town. They succeeded in getting one
company to take down its signs.

CARE OF TREES.
Tho Trunks Should DO Protected and
Shaded From the Sun.


Shaded From the Sun.
After planting tree protector should
at once be placed around each tree for
protection and shade to the stems of the
trees until their own foliage is able to do
the work. For this purpose the best and
cheapest tree protector yet used is made
Of wooden strips that conc feet above
the ground, placed 3 inches apart and
bound with iron hoops; this gives the
necessary shade to tho stem, and at
the same time allows q free circulation
of air. This shading is all important,
for when the trees arc growing i'll for
ests or i'll the nursery they shade one
another, and it must be evident that ii
set out in the streets of city, without
any protection from the blazing sun,
they must suffer.
Many thousands of dcciduous trees
both fruit and ornamental, perish annu-
ally the first year of planting from this
cause, as from tho woods or tho closely
planted nursery rows tho change is too
great unless the season is especially IA
vorable, no matter how carefully the
planting may have been done. Trees in
orchards and other Enclosures can be
shaded by wrapping the stems up to the
lower branches with straw or anything
that will shade the trunk from the sun
The grand success i'll planting the ave-
nues in Washington is no doubt due
largely to the persistent use of this pre-
caution, for it is never omitted, and the
results attest its value. And there all
trees for two years after planting are
cultivated by the soil being stirred up
with hoe for or s feet from tho stem
in all directions. Cleveland Plain

SUNLIGHT IN THE SCHOOLS.
Simple and Ingenious Plan For Equaliz.
ing Light In Classroo,ns.

III most largo school buildings the
rooms arc distributed Systematically on
each sido of Railways running tho length
of the center and across tho middle Of
each floor. III this way it has been all
but impossible to give sunlight to all
tho rooms. In fact, those rooms which
have southern outlook got practically
all tho sunlight and those looking north
get mono at all. In case tho rooms faco
cast and west most have u little sun
light and none of them much. Those
facing east get tho morning sun and
those west tho afternoon sun.
A two story school building now be-
ing erected i'll San Francisco has solved
tho problem Of giving each classroom
its full quota of sunlight by having tho
main hall along the front of tho build
ing OH each floor, the building facing
north. There are four classrooms on
each story, and the entire eight apart
ments face thesouth-that is, the build
ing facing the north, the rear windows,
those of the classrooms, face the south.
Each classroom measures 26 by 33 feet
and is lighted by five windows. The
fifth window in each classroom will be
the upper light Of y door, which can be
easily raised vertically. Each one of
these window doors opens onto broad
balcony or landing connecting with a
wido staircase. These staircases reach
tho Fairgrounds from the second as we'll
as the first story. They arc to be used
i'll case of emergency, SO that the chill
drcn will have avenues of exit both
back and front from every classroom.
Tho desks i'll all tho classrooms are so
arranged that the light will fall in ev-
cry case over the left shoulder of the
pupil, and there will be no conflicting
cross lights. To each classroom there is
cloakroom and layatory measuring s
feet by 1G. The principals room is on
the second floor, and electric bells and
speaking tubes connect with each class
room. The four classroons on tho up
per floor are divided by vertically slid
ing doors, SO that the roonls can be
thrown into ono and used us an assem-
bly, hall. On each floor there area library
and special room for teachers
The school has the usual fire hose
closets and heating apparatus. The ven
tilation is effected by special suction
system, with ducts from each classroom
connecting with central tower or sue
ton shaft, thus irsuriny complete and
constant change of air.
Tho basement walls are of concrete
and the superstructuro of wood. The
style of architecture is simple and pref
ty, partaling essentially of the old CO.
lonial. In tho basement, which is feet
high i'll the clear, two Fairgrounds are
provided one for boys and the other for
girls, to be used i'll wet weather.

Japanese Peculiarities.

The little economies that have made
Japan so rich may be noticed everywhere.
This dust of charcoal is gathered up and
mixed with the chaff from wheat, barley
and other grains and with chopped straw.
1t is then moistened into paste, rolled
into balls about as big as billiard ball
and makes excellent fuel.
All the great irrigating canals are used
for navigation also. They are walled up
with stone and will last forever.
The first question asked of stranger in
Japan is, "Ohl Kuni was"-"What is
your honorable country"
Nearly all the hills of Japan are covered
with cultivated forests.
The Japanese wheelbarrow is a net of
rope, hung by four cords to either end of
q pole, which is balanced on the shoulder
of cody. Single large ones are attached
to the middle of pole and carried on the
shoulders of two men. In digging exca-
vations in grading on roads and railways
and in ali similar work earth and stone
are carried in this way. Ships are loaded
with coal by several hundred half naked
men and women, who pass ii along from
one to the other in little straw baskets
about as big as washbowl. -Chicago

Old Music In the British Museum.

The accessions to the collection of music
have been more than usually important.
The most valuable acquisition was copy
of the "Motetti de Passione," printed by
Petrucci at Venice in 1903. OF this work,
the sixth printed by Petrucoi with his
newly invented types, only one other copy
Is known to be in existence, and that
wants the title page and one other leaf.
Another interesting book is the folio edi-
ton of Soriano's masses (Rome, 1909,
dedicated to Paul V, splendid specimen
of Italian binding and typography, having
the pope's arms stamped on the covers.
Three very valuable early italian operas
formerly in the Borghese library, have also
been bought. They are: (D Daphne"
by Mario da Gagliano, Florence, 1909;
(9) "Diana Schernita, by Giacinto Cor
nachioli, (Rome, 1920; and (B) "Stral
d'Amore," by G. Boschetto Boschetti
Venice. 161s). Another interesting work,
from the same library, is the "Diletto
Spirituale," Of Simone Verovio (Rone,
1887, which Is generally considered the
first music printed from engraved copper
plates. Copies of the ''Intaboiatura d'Or-
oano di Reoercari" of jacques Buus, (Ven-
Ice. 1549), one Of the earliest books OF Or
gan music; the "Laudi Spiritual OF Fra
Serafno Razzi (Venice, 1869, in a bind
