aCLUB WOMEN APPEAL TO
 THE COMING CONVENTION

are a part of this great work Mobile is to have one kindergarten at least op- erated under the auspices of the city board of education. The Mobile public schools are the first to take this impor- tant step. In the other cities where free kindergartens have been established they have been under tn auspices of an asso- citation or some church society.
 Mrs. Phillips dweit upon the splendid methods employed in the Birmingham Training School.
 The following recommendations pre- scented by Mrs. Phillips were unanimously passed:
 l. The fact that kindergartens have been established and successfully main tained In several leading centers in the state. shows that the same can be done in other cities and towns in Alabama. In order to popnlarize the kindergarten idea and make it's work effective in the state it should be established in all our larger cities and towns. During the com ing year there. should be at least a dozen centers from which the kindergar- ten Influence should radiate throughout the entire state. We would recommend, therefore. that the members of the fed eration use their influence to secure the establishment of kindergarten in their respective communities. The best method of procedure will probably be to send committees to one or more southern points such as New Orleans. Louisville or Birmingham to investigate the de- tails of the system.
 2 Your committee would recom- mend further that in the selection of kin dergartener graduates from training school under the ausicis of the Free Kin dergen Associations should invariably be given the preference. The training of the graduates covering a period of two years renders them better equipped for the work than the so-called kindergarteners who have had merely summer course Of a few weeks in the work. The failure in the kindergarten has too often been due to a mistake In the selection of kinder gardener A poor kindergartener is worse than none at all.
 8. The several Free Kindergarten Associations already established in tho State should as early as possible be or ganized into State Association for mu- tual assistance and for the purpose of spreading the influence of the kindergar- ten throughout the State by means of united and well-directed effort.
 4. Yours committee would beg the members of the federation to use their best efforts in every manner possible to prove the efficiency of kindergarten work and ideas, to the end that ultimately the kindergarten shall be adapted as corporate part of the public school sys- tenn of the State

There Is no fear of this when tho electric shot firing method is used. as the shots can Do fired on tho surface or in the dyns. mo room if preferred. Then. again. the fuse method cannot do az much work as tho electric method for the same number of shots. as eaca shot Is fired separately. owing to their being of diff. ferent lengths and other causes. and con. sequently n less amount of energy is brought into force ou the rock.

The meddler, man, hath left the elements
In peace.
Thou pausest not in thine allotted task,
0 darklng River Through the night hear
Thy wavelets rppling on the pebbly beach
hear thy current stir the rustling sedge
That skirts thy bed; thou intermittent not
Thine everlasting journey. drawing on
A silvery train from many a woodland
spring
And mountain brook. The dweller by thy
side
Who moored his little boat upon thy beach,
Though all the waters that upbore 1t then
Have slid away Ger night, shall find at
Thy channel filled with waters freshly
drawn
From distant cliffs, and hollows where the
rill
Comes up amid the water flags. All night
Thou givest moisture to the thirsty roots
OF the 1.-THE willow and o'erhanging plane,
And cherishest the heritage of thy bank,
Spotted with little flowers. and sendest up
To steep the hills with dew, or darken
heaven
With drifting clouds, that trail the shadowy
shower.
o River darkling River what voice
Is that thou Interest while all else is STILL
The ancient voice that. centuries ago.
Sounded between thy hills, while Rome was
yet
A weedy solitude by Theirs stream
How many, at this hour, along thy course
Slumber to thy eternal murmuriDgs,
That mingle with the utterance of their
dreams!
At dead of night the child awakes and hears

And sleeps again. An airy multitude
OF little echoes. all unheard by day,
