Club Notes.

The Mothers meeting Wednesday
afternoon was largely devoted to read
ings from Horace Fletcher's new book
''The Lost Wait" 1t is a strong pre-
sentatiOn of the need of kindergarten
work in character building: on the
humane and Christian plan of carl g
for unfortunate children as a prevent
alive of crime, instead of allowing
them to grow up on the street, and
then taxing the state ten times as much
for their maintenance in criminal in
stitutiOns as it would take to make
useful citizens. The discussion over
this book showed that the Kinsley
club women have progressive ideas
and know how to express them clearly
and concisely.
Mrs. Higgins contributed an excel
lent article on Experimenting Child
rem" and Mrs. Cormach one on Sian
guage. Mrs. Blanchard gave ''Child-
ren's Companionship' and Mrs.
Wire read an original paper on THE
Encouragement of Industrial Traits in
Children which aroused much inter-
est. Next Wednesday is the business
meeting and will be devoted to DIS
cussion of plans for forming neighbour
hood botany classes for children dur
ing the summer vacation.

The Farmer Lads Room.

B. sure to allow the big boy
of the family to say just how he
wants his room. Do not make
the mistake of putting the boy
off with just any old thing; many
4 boys life has been made
miserable by a constant migra
ton from one sleeping place to
another, winding up with bed
on the floor, just to make room
for some more important mem
Der of the household. Give him
room of his own, and do not
ask him to leave it. The
furniture in one boys room
whom l know is Old oak; the
old fashioned lounge is covered
with figured cretonne IN brown
and gold: the big easy chair
matches it. The windows have
draped curtains of Japanese art
cloth in dull red and gold; even
the floor covering corresponds.
One may be sure that this boy
has bonnie brown hair and eyes,
with cheeks like the sunny side
of a fall peach. That he is
orderly We can tell from the
arrangement of his collars and
neckties in the top drawer of his
dresser. that Ire loves pictures,
from the small reproductions Of
good ones which adornthe walls.
His grandfather's sword and his
great grandfather's picture, talk.
en- with the drum which beat
time for marching feet in 1872,
serve as constant reminders to
him of his duty to his home and
country and unconsciously he
tries to live up to his heroes

jefferson CITY Letter.

The House has adopted a
resolution 10 provide for Il joint
committee to inquire into the
ACCESSIBILITY of the state publish
ing school text books. 1t will
go to the Senate for concur
renee. California publishes its
text books and they get books
cheaper and find it satisfactory.
The Senate has passed Il bill re-
pealing that section Of the
school law which makes it Il
penalty to use any other book
in the school room than those
adopted, Undoubtedly the
house will pass the Senate bill
or better one. Shelby County
will continue TO get along with
two terms of circuit court each
year at Shelbyville. The bill
for two terms each year at
Shelbina is dead.

Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1899-02-16

Through the DEMOCRAT the
people have asked the Honora-
BILE County Court of Monroe
County to tell why nearly $500
more of the peoples money than
the contract price, was paid for
printing and publishing the bal
lot of the last election. While
not asked tor an answer two
papers of the county have made
an attempt to answer bat tailed
to make u satisfactory one: Up
to tins good time the Honorable
County Judges have made 10
answer, Why? 1t may be that
they think such a little thing as
spending $500 OF the peoples
money Of so little moment to
the people as not to deserve at,
tention. If such be the case,
the DEMOCRAT begs leave to in
form the gentlemen Of the conn.
ty court that the people consid-
er the spending of their money
an important matter and again
ask that the county court tell
the people why that $500 was
paid.
