CoMMENDs THE ACTION.

The Trenton Times commend
Booraem upon his action il
the truancy matter as follows:
Ten children, with their par
ents, summoned before
Judge Booraem, in M%iddlesex
county on Saturday. The chill
dren were charged with truancy
from school and their elders
were called to show cause why
the truants should not be sent to
the state homes. County Super
intendent Willis was the COM
plainant. Nine of the children,
it was found, had been attending
school regularly since the sum-
monses were served, and they
were placed in charge of Mrs.
Emily e. Williamson, the pro-
baton officer, while the parents
were informed that they were Ii
able to fines of $1,000 each or
six months in Jail for willfully
aiding in keeping the children
out of school. 1t is safe to pre-
dict that there will be less tru-
ancy in the county in the future
and, as the distribution of the
school moneys is made upon the
basis of attendance, the incl
dent will be of financial advan-
tage to Middlesex."

THE CARNIVAL COMING.

The ladies of the hospital auxil-
larry are going to have the carnival
here again this summer. To those
who are familiar with the work con
1lected with the event last year the
meaning of this can be readily under
stood. AS long as the hospital has
the auxiliary back of it there need be
no fear of its failure. The carnival
means work, and lots of it, but the
ladies do not seem to look at that end
of it. They know that it also means
money for the hospital and with that
end always in view they are ready
TO tackle almost anything. Hats off
to the ladies.

THE LONELY CHILD.

Here in the lovely house of Paradise
With it's golden roof and its rafter,
| am warmed with the million lights
of God,
And share celestial mirth and
laughter.
But oft l grieve apart in lonely
pain
Mother l want my little room again!
With shining cherub and with angel
bright,
I play around Gods throne of glory
But mother mine l want to sit with
you
And hear youtell a fairy story.
And, oh, | want to hear you laugh
and sing
Mother, l want my toys and every
thing!
I fear the awful burning of Gods
stars;
/ fear the great winds and the
spheres;
But when the angel Spring comes
= back to earth,
l too shall come in violet faces
Mother, come out to the grass and
the dew,
And I'll smile from my little grave at
= you!

STILL AT TT.

The price of coal. g5es down fifty
cents on a ton Monday. But who
wants coal then? The price of coal
goes up fifty cents on a ton Septem-
Der /. But everybody wants coal
then. Yet the railroads, which con-
troll the coal situation, complain be-
cause there is a general uprising
against the methods they employ. The
people want square dealing, nothing
else. There is a man in the White
House at Washington who has de-
clared that he is for a square deal.
He has made good thus far and the
people stand by him. AS soon as tn e
railroads, coal operators and OTHER
corporations come to their senses. the
better it will be for all.
The remedy to the present unrest
throughout the country lies right
with the trusts themselves. OF course,
they would like the people to stay
asleep and allow them to go. on run
ming things as they please. but the
end Of that kind of business has
come and the sooner they realize it

THE MOTHER AND HER GIRLS.

DO not be unduly disturbed, dear
mother, at the dawning of a day al
most sure to come in your experience
with your girls advises Mrs. Sang
ster in Woman's Home Companion
for April. IF they have strong char
acters, if they are able to stand on
their own feet, they will reach a sta
ton where the train they take may
lead them away from you. Girls
have said to me, with a shade of sad
ness, that they regretted that they
must sometimes make decisions of
which their mothers did not approve.
one OF the temptations to which we
falllble mothers are liale is that Of
ignoring the obvious fact that grown
up daughters or daughters nearly
grown are not babies any longer and
are not to be compelled to yield their
Individuality to ours. There are
crises in young lives, and the only
thing for a mother to do, having
given such counsel as she thinks best,
is to leave her daughters entirely free
to work out their own problems.
Enormous trouble and overwhelming
disaster may follow interference in
the management of other peoples
lives, and although daughters are
part of your own existence, vet Won
cannot treat them as If o were an
autocTat. Give your daughters room
for individual expansion and liberty

Bert Bowen Married.

A simple but very pretty wedding
ceremony was performed today by Rev.
Father E. ]. Conanty at the Catholic
pastoral residence, when he united in
marriage Miss Katherine Kennedy,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Lawrence
Kennedy of University avenue and Mr..
Albert E. Bowen of LaMoure, N. D..
The nuptial words were spoken at half
after twelve in the presence of only the
intimate friends and close family con-
nections. The bride was attired in a
rich brown travelling suit and was
attended by Miss Katherine Kenny of
Minneapolis as bridesmaid, while Mr..
William Clark of this city officiated as
best man. Following the ceremony
and the extending of Fluctuations, a
dainty wedding luncheon was served at
the home of the bride. They left on
the afternoon train for Grafton and
will be located at Auburn shortly,
where Mr.. Bowen is instructor in the
schools.
The above is clipped from the Grand
Forks Evening Press. Mr.. Bowen lived
with his grandfather, Hon. H. ].
Mallory, in Hudson township for a
number of years and will be remem-
bered by his many friends about Oakes
as Bert Bowen.

John M. Will, of Riverdale, although
he is going out of the horse and ma
chinery business, is not going to quit
f rming. Johnnie has been doing some
hard thinking while he has been follow
ing the teams and conceived the idea Of
harvesting and plowing at the same
time by means of steam. Accordingly
he rugged up his 26-horse engine with
a binder on one side and plows on the
other, and as he cut seven-foot swath
of wheat on one side he was turning
over seven feet of ground on the other,
throwing the shocks on the plowed land.
With the help of two men he cut and
plowed twenty acres per day and
figures that his harvesting did not cost
him anything as it is worth SIPS per
acre to get the land plowed. Johnnie
figures that this way is one-third
cheaper than the old way. There are
no horses to care for or hitch up and
no time wasted or man or beast over
worked. Johnnie has patents on sew
eral hitching devices and some of the
tmachinery concerns are taking a lively
interest in the experiments. The plan
is both practical and money saving.
