NEW FIELD FOR WOMEN.
One Acts as superintendent Of Ma
ture Study In Vacation Schools.

One Of the oldest occupatisn in Phil
adeiphia is that of Miss Kate Baumann.
who not only supervises the matuIe
work done by many classes IN the vaca-
ton schools. but collects and distributes
the specimens needed In teaching 500
children-comprising hundreds OF roots
OF all varieties, stems, leaves, flowers,
fruits and vegetables, Three Gays

work. Three days she spends distriout-
ing among the schools.
Her excursions take her far beyond the
railroad and trolley lines. Clad in COM
Portable walking dress, she does miles

| to gather twigs or leaves from convenient
| branches. Occasionally there IS tree

beyond the reach OF the crooked hahoie
of her umbrella.
On certain days the superintendent $
trip is to the woods and fields In search
of. wild flowers On others, armed Win
a large basket, she visits friendly farm
ers to solicit garden and orchard pro-
ducts. or again, she follows the course
OF some stream to hunt for necessary wa
ter plants.
The burden she brings back to town
at night may be forty pounds of leaves
pulled from all kinds Of trees. or hun
dreds OF twigs bearing pears and other
fruit, or a basketful of potatoes, beets
and carrots. dug UP with their leaves

an the January Board meeting of 1897.
the then Registrar General asked that
some Delinquent member be allowed to
come back into the Society as a new
member, by giving up her old certificate
and national number and starting anew
like any new member and paying but
SO and the board allowed this to be done
That was before l came on to the Ma
tional Board. So I do not know what
were the causes OF the action in that
case. But the minutes of that meeting
show 1t was so done. And since that
date, quite number have re-entered
in this way and their old numbers have
become vacant. their old certificates are
destroyed and they become new mem
bers, taking new numbers and new GER
tificates This. as you see. adds to the
vacancy numbers spoken of at our last
Congress-: And 1t never seemed to me
fair to the promptly paying members.
But 1t was allowed in order to help the
poorer members.
IT will reiterate, TO make II all pain.
$50 far as a Chapter is concerned. a
resignation takes effect in the Chapter as
soon as written, whether the member
resiening is in arrears or not.
Similarly, a resignation from the Ma
tional Society takes effect from the date
of writing, even If the member is in ar
rears.
Again, members resigning. may be re-
:nstated in their Chapters on paying to
the National Treasury 81 per year for
each year of their absence and then get
ting transfers back to their Chapters.
Members dropped for non-payment
may be re-instated in their old Chapters
on payment OF all back dues to the Chap
tiers. which then pay 81 per year for each
year of the delinquency to the National
Society.
Members dropped or resigned who
wish to join other Chapters. pay s. per
year to the National Society for each
year of their abcenoo. and then got
transfer cards to some new Chapter.
"All members not in Chapters are men,
eers-at-larg7.
'Herce all members dropped from or
resigned from Chapters are still men,
bers-at-large until they are dropped or
resigned from the National Society or
reinstated in some Chapter.
II think ! have repeated every point
But il not and anything is not clear, let
me know and l will try again.

As the date for tn big drilling con. test draws near, those who are trying hard to get line on the relative abil ity of the five big teams that are ex. pected to compete are studying their past performances.
 It is now almost certain that Berg and Johnson of Bisbee will enter the contest and endeavor to carry off the first prize. They are both handy drill. CTS, and are putting in their time drill. ing in the hard rock ct the Spray shaft
 Figuring upon past performances the favorites will be Chamberlain and Malley, closely followed by the Tarr Brothers of Globe. Little is known about McNichols and Ross of British Columbia, though they are said to be strong. Davies and Frethey of Butte are fast team.
 Chamberlain and Malley, who won the championship last January at Fl Paso, by drilling hole 40 and 6-16 inches in a block of Gunnison granite that is now on the way here, were all most tied by the Tarr Brothers, who drilled 40 5-16. The Tarr Brothers have sent their entrance fee.
 Few of the single handed drillers have sent in their entrance fees, al- though Bob Lyons of Globe and Jack McGowan of this city are certain to take a try at first prize. McGowan finished second at Fl Paso last Janu- ary.
 "A great many things figure in these drilling contests said Ed Nal ley yesterday. Take the most of the men, and they all drill about the same. It is the condition of the steel and the hardness of the rock that wins and loses contests"
 Malley, with his team mate, both abstain from the use of intoxicating liquors, and are drilling each day in a canyon southeast of the city.

ANOTHER THEORY GONE?

We moderns are utterly deprived of the
peace Of MIND our good forefathers en-
joyed in the days when the sum of
knowledge was fixed from generation unto
generation. The medieval man had a
certain religion. It was the only re-
5ligion. He had certain knowledge. It
was the only knowledge. He did not at
25 have to reject what was taught him
at 90; and at SO he did not have to rel
view the whole field of knowledge and
discard almost all he learned in school.
The world was not very complex to the
medieval man. He knew why he was on
earth. His relations to his fellow beings,
to church and state were fixed. He did
not have to do violence to his pride Of
intellect.
But the modern man is forever con-
fronted with the necessity Of receding
from beliefs and supposed knowledge. The
truth of to-day is the error Of to morrow
The most disquieting recent demonstra-
tion of the variation Of accepted truth
with the progress Of investigation is the
threatened abandonment Of the filth the
Dry of disease, GENERALIZATION hundred
years and idolized for the last fifty. Dr.
Charles v. Chaplin asserts in the Janu-
ary number of the Popular Science Month
1y that this theory has at least been
proved insufficient. No disease, he main
aims, originates in filth or is superinduced
by filthy surroundings. But 1t may be,
