THE COLLEGE GIRL AT HONE

1t has been objected that the inde-
pendence and exhilaration Of college,
the association with culture and
wealth. render a girl dissatisfied with
her home, writes Smith college
student in Good Housekeeping. There
is some truth in this but it has been
oyeremphasized. and the ether side
of the medal needs to be locked at.
A girl does not truly appreciate her
home until she sees it in perspective.
From childhood she has accepted It
just as it is, with no thought Of re-
sponstbility or effort. The love and
care was as much a matter Of course
as the three meals a day or the pic
lures in the parlor. and while she is
not always satisfied, she has nc
definite idea Of improvement.
College opens her eyes more or
less perceptibly. She discovers other
ideas and ideals than the ones she has
known. and other ways Of doing
things. In visiting her college friends.
many widely different homes are
seen. and furnish distict standards
with which to compare her own life.
Naturally on her return she looks
at her surroundings With different
eyes-but her comparison is more an
appreciation than criticism IF
college has taught her anything. it

They All Abolish Passes
Erie, Lehigh and lackawanna Follow
Pennsylvania lead

All Of the railroads in the East
ern part of the country have now
followed the the example OF the
Pennsylvania, and decided to abol-
ish tree passes. The Pennsylvania,
New York Central and Reading
had already announced their inten-
ton of making the reform, and the
Lehigh Valley, Erie and Lacka-
wanna are added to the list. While
each of the roads has acted inde-
pendently it is believed that the
presidents have reached an imfor-
NAL agreement. Included in the
action Of the New York Central
and Pennsylvania are their subsi-
diary lines, such as the West Shore
and the Baltimore and Ohio.
1t is estimated that only about
IS per cent of the people to whom
passes are now issued will travel
when they can no longer get them.
Some Of the railroad officials tear
that they will be subject to all man
ner of annoying legislation as a
result Of the abolition of passes.
The directors of the Pennsylvania
railroad have adopted a resolution
indorslng the action of President
Cassatt in doing away with passes.
The new rule on all the railroads
goes into effect on January Ist.

Winter Will Continue Mild.
Son and Grandson OF Prophets Bases Pre-
diction on actions and Appearance OF
Geese, Checkers, Rabbits, Muskrats
and Other Creatures.

Uncle Eb. Lowman, the Con-
nellsville weather prophet, who has
manufactured weather forecasts for
many years, predicts a continuance
of the mild Winter,
The reasons he gives for his pre-
diction are that will geese have
stayed north month longer than
usual; because farm poultry has
neglected to moult until a month
later than ordinarily; because fresh
cider ferments in two weeks and
turns to hard cider in a month; be-
cause the shells of beech nuts and
husks on the corn ears and tue
heaps of new earth over mole holes
are thinner than common; because
muskrats have not on any thick
undercoating; because rabbits still
run about in the woods and fields
i'll their brown Summer garments,
and because crows and robins have
not yet migrated to the South.
He insists that the goosebone is
unreliable and the merit which at
taches to it depends upon the kind
Of goose from which it is taken.
The old man says that any person
who will base his faith on the goose
bone, without knowing what kind
of goose it came from, is risking
his reputation for reliability.
His system of making predictions
was worked out by his grandfather,
who passed it along to his father,
and when he had practiced it for
forty years and made many i'm
provements, it was turned over to
Eb.
