form Hormovich and, accordingly after
dressing, she started out with her

SCHOOL CHILDREN
ASSIGNED TO GRADES
Active Work to Begin To
day in Most Of the De
partments.
HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WAIT
Given Reprieve Until Thursday
New Book Arrangement
To Be Tried.

The Gary school children yesterday
assembled and received classification as
to grades in the various schools of the
city and school year was started, al
though no work was done in the way
of study or recitations. Nose of the
students will resume their studies to-
day after having been given an OPP
portunity to secure their books yester-
day afternoon.
The students at the high school were
given reprieve from duty until
Thursday at which time they will be
enabled to secure all of their books
and equipment IT was found neces-
sary to take longer time for the high
school because of the uncertainty of
the number that would be in attend
ance in the various years and it was
them in advance.
Board Buys the Books.
The plan of the school board buying
the books for the children has been in
augurated this year with great sue
cess The students in the third and
fourth grades are charged a fee of
so cents for the books during the year,
in the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth
year they are charged rs cents, and
the high school students are charged
1925.
These books are merely used by the
students for the fee which they pay
and are kept in the possession of the
board. They will be used year after
year by other pupils, thereby lessening
the cost of the school books to the
parents. This method in a way sup
plants the free school book law which
is in vogue in some states in the coun-
try. The books are purchased by the
board at wholesale prices.

WILL NOT
Be With Us
Commercial Club Directors
of Gary Receive Word
From President That He
Will Be Unable to Stop
Off in Gary While on Trip.

Directors of the Gary Commercial
club received word from President
Tafts party this morning that the
president would be unable to stop of
at Gary for few minutes to address
the members Of the Federated Com
mercial clubs. which viii convene in
Gary Thursday morning, the time at
which Taft passes through the city on
his way to Chicago.
The reason ascribed for his inability
TO stop off at Gary is that he must
eonfne himself closely to his sched
ule and that he could not afford to de-
lay even for a few minutes. This de-
cision was really expected by the di-
rectors. although there really was some
hope held out that the steel city could
lure him to stop here for few minutes
al least.
CrumpacIxer VIII Attend.
1t has also been determined that
neither Governor Marshall nor Sena
tors Beveridge or Shively will be able
10 attend the convention and have sent
in their regrets. Congressman Crum-
packer has howeer accepted the invi-
tation and will make an address in
this city.
From the present prospects the mum
Der in attendance at the convention at
Gary this year will far outnumber those
who held forth last year for the two
days at Richmond Not only is the
Federated club better organized this
year. but Gary itself is expected to
prove an additional attraction for the

-Four clubs have already accepted the
invitations to attend. These are Ham

Other acceptances are expected in TO-
day Although there were but less than
hundred delegates at Richmond last
year 1t is believed that the number will
be over two hundred this year. and the
local Commercial club is preparing to
entertain that number

BY FLORENCE BosARD LAWRENCE
ONE CAN hardly imagine a more
delightful title than the one
" which leads Caleb Lewis book
almost Fairy Children" to the eye of
an interested public. The public to
whom this book appeals, will not be
confined to the Juvenile readers either,
but to those other folk, grown up
in stature but retaining the child's love
of that which is true, in which fancy
is allowed some fling as well.
The stories in the book are fairy
tales related to Peter and Jane by
Uncle Tan This uncle, who is not a
really truly uncle at all, but one or
those far more delightful adopted kind
tc whom little boys and girls run with
their joys and sorrows always sure of
a sympathetic listener. Uncle Tan is
living in a fishermans hut, but the
story explains that he is not just a
fisherman and from the mention OF
dasks and books and many, many
queer jars holding sea-urchins, one de-
cides that he is a naturalist. Ihe
children go to visit him and after sup
per Jane said: Uncle Tan can you
tell stories?"
IT can but not very good ones. can
make biscuits better"
"Why aren't your stories good ones?"
Because you wouldn't DeueVe IHeIn,
and besides, they aren't true"
1--WE can play they're true. That's
just as good.''
"I think" said Uncle Tan, that
you'd much better get your mother to
read you really good stories ] should
be ashamed to have you tell her my
stories because there isn't any head
or tail to them'
The children insisted upon having
these stories, however, and the rest of
the book is made up of marvellous
tales about most interesting subjects.
"The One-eyed Cow is one story, and
THE Nutmeg Man is another, while
1.-THE Ancient Schooner" 1.-The Lost
Freight Car" and 1.-The Extraordinary
Me- are all stories which will amuse
every reader.
The Illustrations for the book are
handsomely printed in color and are
well drawn and effective. George F.

A recent edition of the "Stalky
Stories," with which Rudyard Kip

Los Angeles herald., 1909-09-19

hearts, has come from the press of
Doubleday and Mcclure company.
Stalky and Co., school boys and board
ing school boys at that, have adven-
lures which form the liveliest kind
of reading, and their sole efforts to
outwit each other, as well as their
teachers, house-masters and so forth,
are described in the frank style which
endears them still more to all young
readers.
II is mistake to consider this book
a boy s, book, for while it is in all it's
char cteristics eminently fitted for the
boyiSn reader it has so much spirit,
is so full of entertainment and so ra-
dates the joys of living, whether in

peace and quietude or with the battle
and scheming with which the young
human male enlivens his school days,
that girl readers, too, will find it de-
lightful AS a change from the more
or less harmless and innate literature
which is frequently offered as fit diet
for their mental needs it will have the
same benefit that rare beefsteak and
baked potatoes would have after a
prolonged diet of toasted marshmal-
lows, pickles and soda water.
The book is composed of short
stories, many if not all of which have
appeared separately in magazines.
Some of the favorite titles are I'm
