the benefits to be had from dealing
with home merchants are many and
real:
transient peddlers are going from
house to house selling anything and
everything. These strangers are here
today and away from here tomorrow.
They are nOmads, and nearly all Of
them value their word at nothing and
will cheat and deceive, knowing that
when their trickery is disclosed they
will be out of harms reach.

THE PARENTS CLASS.

Theology and science have not yet
explained to the satisfaction Of us all
whence we come and whittier we go
but all are convinced that one OF the
prime objects Of our present existence
is the pefpetuation of the race Such
being the case wise parents will put
more care, love and thoughtfulness In
the rearing Of their children than in
any other pursuit Of life. We have no
normal schools for parents but each OF
our ward Sunday schools has a parents
class which fulfils much the same OBJ.
ject. 1t Is sort OF clearing house of
ideas on parental duties where the old
may pass on to the rising generation
the lessons that they have learned
from bitter experience and perhaps
themselves receive enough youthful
inspiration to keep them out of the
rut OF one set OF ideas which Is worse
than old age and as much sin as
ignorance. On the other hand the
younger parents may be brought to
realize the mistakes they are often
making through ignorance and may
be helped in settling some OF the many
knotty problems of discipline, morals
and expediency that arise when one
has children TO train. Although these
parents classes are under the wing Of
the Sunday school and religious ques-
tions are often discussed in them, they
are in no sense sectarian. They are
more like neighborhood parental
club, open to every parent and in
which each is free TO express his views.
Sometimes the class separates into
mothers meeting and a fathers but
usually all discuss together such ques.
lions as money allowances; tact in
dealing with children; the truth OF
the homely proverbs, LAS the twig Is
bent the trees Inclined" LAS the old
birds sing the young ones twitter,"
and "a chip Of the old block" all Of
which should make IA parent realize
the awful responsibility that lies In
his example and the vital truth that
the trouble with bad child may usu-
ally be traced back to his parents.

that he should be smart enough to

SIGNS OF THE TIMES.

The recent financial depression with
its subsequent hard times and stag.
nant industries is having other effects
on Utah society than merely flooding

up a hotel and Jail. For the first
time for years the supply of school
teachers and servant girls exceeds the
demand. Already the Logan school
board has received from sixty to sew.

teach In the Logan schools next year,
while last year at this time not a sin.

up working certain mines, or they find
themselves just now without a posi-.

small salary OF professor or instruc

cartoon In Life is entitled "Captairs
OF Industry" 1t represents lady Sc.
lecting maid at an intelligence Office
from a group OF surly. domineering,
condescending Bridgets This may
have been faithful satire on condi.
tions in the maid market few
months ago, but it does not show the
true state OF affairs today. All the
intelligence offices OF our large cities
give the same report. There are more
applicants than places to be filed.
The closed factories have turned
great deal OF cheap labor on the mar.
ket and the feminine element of it is
ready to seek temporary employment
in domestic service. 1t is to be hoped
that each mistress who gains maid
by these changed conditions will treat
her with so much tact and kindness
that the kitchen will triumph over
the factory as an attractive occupa-
tion for working women and thus the
servant girl question will be perma-
nently solved
