Having started upon the pursuits
of life on the farm, then the traits
of character and habits will be
formed that will make life a success
or a failure.
Every farmer should study the sur
roundings of his farm and compare
them with those of other farmers
and bring them up to the highest
possible standard of Improvement
year after year. Special care should
be taken that all out-buildings, or
char s, pastures, etc., should be so
arranged as to be as convenient as
possible to the dwelling, thereby
saving time and unnecessary worry.
System should be scrupulously adj
hered to on the farm.
Everything consumed should, if
possible, be raised on your farm,
thereby avoiding the necessity of
going into debt for supplies that
could be produced on the farm. 1t
is the little things, when properly
looked after and cared for, that
gives life its most valued sphere
and distinguishes pleasure and pros
perity from vexation and poverty.
Pleasure, contentment and success
are sure to be found on a farm that
is judiciously managed, with for
bearance, frugali-y, perseverance
and industry.

Life Pleasant and Profitable-Ad-
dress by w. S. Overton, paper by
G. A. Black, Sr., comments by w.

Black, w. G. Pirtle, Charley Har-
ris, D. J. Campbell, w. A. Ca
ruthers, Mont. Jones, Frank Doris.
The Institute adjourned to meet
on the first Saturday in September.
The following paper on elbow to
Make Farm Life Pleasant and Pro
fitable," was read before the Insti-
tute by G. A. Black, ST.:
In the beginning man was created
and placed in home where all his
wants and pleasures were abundantly
provided for by the divine Creator,
and human life was in its most per-
feet state.
The integrity Of man was brought
to test when the evil spirit pre-
sented mental picture, portraying
the possibilities that were in store
for him if he should partake of the
fruit of that tree which had been
forbidden him by his Creator.
BY one disobedient act the scales
of human life have been overturned
on the side of evil and man is left
on his own resources, to build his
own character and to work out his
own destiny.
There is no vocation in life that
is fraught with more possibilities
and less contaminated with evil in
fuences, and where pleasures and all
that is good in life may abound, than
should be found upon the average
farm.
To develop the resources of the
farm and make life pleasant and
profitable, a good school and church
should be in every community to
lay the foundation upon which true
Happiness and prosperity are
founded.

AIDS TO CHILD STUDY.
Questions Asked the Mothers Glass
by Miss Backus.

by Miss Backus.
So many requests have been made to
Miss Backus for her questions as help
TO child study that they are published as
they were given to the members of her
class. They are meant merely as help
to the analysis of child's character, and
were given because many mothers cannot
describe their children accurately and
dispassionately. and because there are
many others to whom 1t has never &C.
CURED that they can study their own
children as types. The questions are as
follows:
Describe the childs physical appear
ance, as 10 coloring, build, hight for his
age. etc.
Is he usually active or inert, if the lat
ter is there any physical cause?
Is he motor or sonsory type, or a
mixture of both? If both. which type pre-
dominates?
Mention the subjects of his plays when
ne thinks that he is unobserved; also II
: hey are dramatic or about ordinary life
as he sees IT.
Consider the following points with re-
gard to him: Attention, concentration
observation, perseverance or continuity
interest, accuracy.
How does he show his Imagination, and
what is his connection of the border-land
between reality and fancy?
What games, stories or songs does he
like? CDo you sing to your children reg
ularlyO
What purely hereditary traits do you
observe and from which side do they
come?
What secondary traits" or habits OF
mind has he acquired?
What especial talents has he shown
and how do you intend to cultivate them?
How does the child most easily form,
mental images? Does he respond more
quickly through the eye or ear?
What do you consider his worst faults
and by what methods are you correcting
them?
These questions do not pretend to cover
any deep psychological grounds, said Miss
Backus. They are only intended to make
people stop and think more accurately
sbout their children as individuals. They
are mere guide posts.
A good deal of amusement has been oc-
casioned by che questions In reference to
hereditary traits because II Is almost in
variably found that all the Objectionable
traits come from the "other side"
At the seventh meeting OF the class I'm
child study Miss J3ackus gave lists of OBJ
jects recommended for training the child 8
senses, and helping him to form correct
images. The descriptive stanza we're used
TO make the members of the class paint
word pictures" very entertaining way
Of finding out the difficulty of forming a
really definite image OF what is read.
Many new members have entered the
class since the organization meeting, and
copies OF the various clippings form the
Morning News have appeared In other
Georgia papers. showing that everywhere
interest is awakening in the proper study
of "the future citizens Of our republic"

PICNIC OF THE VETERANS.
Daughters of the COnfederacy Aid,
ing TO Make 1t a Success.

A joint meeting of the committees OF
the Confederate Veterans Association and
the Daughters of the aConfederacy. ap-
pointed to make arrangements for holding
the Veterans picnic at Tybee in May.
was held yesterday afternoon.
The committee has not decided definitely
upon what date the picnic is to be held,
but the inclination is to have it on Sat
urday, so as to permit, the attendance of
the Children of the Confederacy. This
consideration, however II may be found
necessary to sacrifice to some more vital
necessity. ESQ.,. ....
The general committees of the Veterans
Association and the Daughters have been
divided into sub committees, and from
now on the work win be conducted along
systematic lines. 1t is hoped that there
will be a large attendance, and pleas
ant day is assured those who attend the
picnic. ~
BY the time of the picnic the new pavil
ion, which, as announced several weeks
ago in the Morning News, the Central
Will shortly begin to construct will be
completed, and there will therefore be a
much better opportunity for the picnickers
to enjoy themselves than has been the
case in the past. = - ea
