fore touching the clean card. If a mis-
take was made the child was helped to
rectifv it himself. Everything the chill
dren did they were obliged to do the
right 'uay. The Kindergarten realizing
that if the little ones are made to ex-
press truth with their hands, they will
naturally express truth with their
tongues. After the occupation period
it was nearly time to go home. AS
noiselessly as they could with carpet
less floors and wooden chairs they arose
from the tables and marched to the
circle to sing a Goodbye song"
Then the hats and wraps were brought
by two children who had been careful
workers during the morning. In put
ting on the coats and rubber shoes each
child did all he could to help his neigh
bor. This helping spirit enters into
every part of the work, and only does
the watchful Kindergarten lend her
assistance when the task is too difficult
for little hands and brain, but she is
ever ready with her smile of encourage
ment and nod of appreciation. The
morning was divided into half-hour
periods, that being called long enough
to hold the child's interest TO one thing
and also to keep him from growing
tickle, and short enough to prevent
fatigue. And, as I left this little world
where the child is surrounded by ideal
life and when, if he obeys its laws, he
can enjoy all that goes to satisfy him
spiritually, physically and Intellectual
ly. and help him to meet with strength
and nobleness the trials and Joys of the
larger world into which he will soon
be thrown to do his part as one of the
great multitude, 1 thought with the
social scientists of the day, it must
have its effect on the ages to come.

MODERATION WILL PREVAIL AT
LEXINGTON, KY., TODAY.

VIII Condemn the National Ad-
ministration, Nevertheless.

LEXINGTON, KY. June 2.-Nearly all
the delegates to the Democratic State
Convention. which meets here tomorrow,
have arrived. The silver men scored a
greater victory than they anticipated. and
al first they were very aggressive, but
Senator blackburn counselled moderation.
He finally decided to call a meeting of HIS
supporters. After two hours debate the
conference decided not to censure Presi-
dent Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle by
name in the platform. but to condemn the
National Administration in as strong
language as possible. They agreed that
on the money question the resolution
should instruct the delegates to support
a free-silver advocate for Democratic can
didate for President.
The biggest fight will be over the election
Of the new Democratic State Central
Committee. 1t is given out tonight that
Senator Goebel one OF Blackburn's
strongest supporters, but a soundmoney
man. will be pushed for chairman OF the
committee. John G. Carroll, Of New
Castle. will, in all likelihood. be per
manent chairman OF the convention. while
Congressman Goodnight will be temporary
chairman.

consequent increase OF circulation. and

allowed to issue circulation under such
