we take this supreme object out Of the
life OF teacher, the profession Of a tea

Teaching school is hard work; keeping

Miss Adams, lady blind from infan-
cy, made an eloquent plea in behalf of
the blind children at the N L. A. She
urged the necessity of having these chill
dren of the dark, taken into our schools
for the seeing children, and not have
them isolated from home and loved
with the blind, where they get the blind
habit She claims that the influence of
their homes and surroundings Is what is
needed aud if they are permitted to en-
ter the regular schools for seeing child
rem they will develop into better and
broader minded men and women than
they otherwise would if brought up in
institutions for the blind without the
home influence.
We talk abont the possibilities of a
grain of wheat; about the possibilities of
science and art. and the possibilities of
human discoveries Of all kinds, but
nothing compares with a child in its in
finite possibilities. 1t is said by D. G.
Murphy, 'The future study of the child
will deal more particularly with his
moral nature. In order to do this pro-
perly, the home and the school must be
/ brought into closer relationship.
Parents and teachers should be well
, acquainted. The child is the one to be
benefited by tine acquaintance, anC
the study of the child by both parent
and teacher is the one thing needed to
day to make our educational work Of

Uncle Winfield, the worthy old sex

one day in high state of pleasurable
excitement.
"A little while ago." he said. "a slim,

QUEER NEST BUILT BY BIRDS
Crioie and His Mate Had Made Use Of
Post Office Irvine.

One of the oldest birds nests l
have seen In long time was that of
Baltimore oriole and its male near
a busy railroad station" said an en-
thusiastic amateur ornithologist. The
nest, which was constructed almost
entirely OF cotton twine, hung from a
lower branch of little maple tree
over the steps leading to the station
platform and within 20 feet of the rail-
road tracks, where about go trains
pass 4 day. The hustle and roar didn't
seem TO bother the birds a bit

cranes with light Irvine TO prevent
them from being blown off. When the
bag is jerked from the post or crane
to the car, the Irvine breaks and falls
TO the ground, and it was these
strands that the birds had gathered
and woven into beautiful hanging
nest. The station agent, who took
ereat interest in the orioles, told me
they had been coming to that particu
lar spot for three or four years, but
that they did not build a new nesi
every season. He said when they die

about week to construct 1t, the male
collecting the material and the female
doing most of the weaving"
