KITCHENS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Milwaukee Professor Says Poor Cook
Ing Drives to Drink.

Professor J. c. Monaghan OF Wiscon-
sin university Is of the opinion that
the drink evil problem can be solved
by the Introduction of kitchens into
the public schools. He maintains that
rs per cent. OF the drunkenness In tho
United States is due to lack Of
knowledge Of food properties. II tho
houselseeper doea not know what foods
to use to produce the stimulants de-
manded by the body the husband and
father will seek these stimulants i'm
other places. The Introduction OF
cooking into the public schools, with
proper teaching as to foods, would, i'm
his opinion, solve n problem which has
vexed the temperance people of tho
land more than any other. MIR. Mon
oghan was talking to the South Side
Woman's club when he made this
broad statement and II received SO
much favor that this week a movement
was started which will eventually re-
suit in the establishment OF such adj
ditions to the schools II the PERSONS

On the night OF the first snow
storm this year the night watchman
pacing his lonely beat among the
cages in the New York geological
park found the lynx cage the scene
of activity. The two animals were
wide awake and appeared to be
watching the far-away fence of tho
park. Once in a while they would
sniff the air and utter their fierce,
cold-thrill cry. This was followed by
chorus from the wolves. foxes. the
bird cages and the chatter of the
awakened monkeys in the primates'
house. The timid deer on the ranges
shrank into their houses. The next
morning man living in One Hundred
and Eightieth street found a large
track trailing through the snow clear
around the park. 1t came down the
Boston road, across Kingsbridge. up
the Boulevard, and back up Pelham
avenue. This man had once been
boy among the Franklin county hills
in Maine. and he thought he knew
the track. He expected to hear that
one of the lynx from the park had
escaped, but inquiry proved that none
had.
