THE JUVENILE GRANGE.
6ome Reasons Why There should Be
an Organization Of Young PeopiA

Sn OF99h1dttoH OF Young FeoptA
Especial Correspondence
There Is no department of grange
work at the present time so important
for both present and future as that Of
bringing IN and training the young for
the work of the Order.
This Is an age of spec1alt1ea, and
among other wise and useful special
ties child culture is receiving IT'S share.
Why, then, should not the child Of the
grange receive proper training and the
granger of the future come upon the
scene of action fully equipped and
trained for the work be has to do?
The grange is an educator of Won
drous power and worth, and its train
ing Is entirely along different lines from
those followed by the schools There
is fitting for public life gained there
IN not to be found elsewhere. Many
who have grown to manhood or wo-
manhood ttmh and difident have,
with few years of grange experience,
acquired ability to express themselves
clearly and In an interesting manner
on almost all subjects Had their
training begun IN early youth, what
results might not have been reached!
The strongest argument IN favor of
the Juvenile grange Is that II takes the
child at an age before other interests
have crowded IN and left no room for
It. Many children who have grown up
In among us and who have at an early
age expressed longing to become old
enough to Join the Order have by the
time that age Is reached lost interest,
and their fresh young minds are lost
to us. Since the organization Of the
Juvenile grange many young children
of worthy parents have come to U.S.
and without single exception every
child has Joined the grange at the ear
Hest opportunity after the age OF four
teen is reached. And without one ex-
ception these children are we'll trained
on parliamentary rules, are more than
usually thoughtful and are ready to
express themselves ON subjects which
are up for discussion. Their help in
the lecturers hour is of wonderful
value. The lecturers hour is Of equal
value to them. giving them. as It does,
the benefit of expressing themselves
in public and training them for a fu-
ture of usefulness.

ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE.
Tho Difference Between Instinct and
Reasoning Power.

reasoning rover.
Most animals have little self con-
seriousness, and their reasoning powers
at best are Of low order, but in kind
at least the powers are not different
from reason in man. A horse reaches
over the fence to be company TO an
other. This is instinct. When it lets
down the bars with its teeth, that is
reason. When dog finds its way
home at night by the sense of smell,
this may be instinct; when he dragS a
stranger 10 his wounded master, mat
Is reason. When jack rabbit leaps
over bush 10 escape dog or Iuns In
a circle before a coyote, or when 1t
lies fat in the grass as q round BAH Of
gray, indistinguishable from grass,
this is instinct. But the same animal
is capable of reason-that is, of a dis
tinct choice among lines of action. Not
long ago rabbit came bounding across
the university campus at Palo Alto.
AS IT passed corner it suddenly faced
two hunting dogs running side by side
toward II. 1t had the choice of turn
ing back, its first instinct, but a dan
gerous one; of leaping over the dogs
or of lying ON the ground. 1t chose
none of these, and its choice was In
Simultaneous. 1t ceased leaping ran
low and went between the dogs Just
as they were in the act of seizing It,
and the surprise of the dogs as they
stopped and tried to hurry around was
the same feeling that a man would
have m like circnmstances.-"Ey
