SOCIAL AND
P E RS ON AL.

Come on in the ice isfne. 49,.
All the papers all the magazine!
at Peterson's.
A good resolution to make for the
new year is to keep a diary. Prob
ably in proportion to population
this practice is not as widely
observed as it was in former days
There is so much business to absorb
the man of affairs that after he has
finished his days work, eaten his
dinner and read his paper, it is time
to retire to rest and prepare for the
next days round. There are SC
many distractions for the young that
they hardly have time to enjoy them
all let alone recording them. Between
youth and age the pace is such that
we leave the things of yesterday be-
hind and forget them, while our
hopes, ambitions and preparations
concern only the things of the
morrow. 1t has been said that every
man has within him at least one
good book. This is doubtless no
exaggeration provided every man
would be the author of that book. 1t
would not necessarily be for publ.
cation, but it would be available for
the confirmation or correction of
many things that are published. II
is never to early to begin. The Real
Diary of a Real Boy suggests that
the earlier the habit is formed the
more amusing the product will be.
The fond mother jots down the say
ings and doings of her prattling
dar]ings. Encourage them to take
up the record as she has left it, even
as soon as they can only clumsily
form the characters of our written
language, and under her direction
put down the happenings of their
little lives from day to day until
they are old and skilled enough to
continue the work unaided. Such a
habit thus early formed will become
one of the best educational forces
with which the child can be endowed.
It causes him to be more observant
and more reflective. He soon learns
that life is not series of fragmentary
incidents, but continuous story, and
that, so far as he is in touch with it,
he is its historian. 1t tends to give
clearness and conference in the
statement of experiences and the ex.
preston of ideas. 1t gives him at
stated periods of life his finger posts
of progress which from time to time
he may consult for guidance in the
future. So it will be a wise New
Years policy for parents to supply
their children with facilities for
writing so much of their autobio-
graphies as pertaining to the coming
year and develop so far as possible
their interest and enthusiasm in the
project. But many, proably most
people, have neglected this early
training, and though they have lost
much thereby, it is never too late too
mend. None is so poor and not
many are so illiterate that they can
not leave to their children the
stories of their lives, with such
commissions and expurgations as
are likely to make them more &C.
ceptable. 1t would help to keep
memories green and would show that
even the humblest unit in the social
cosmos had a part to act.-Boston

4 Bluebird"-that elusive symbol
of happiness which the searchers
never quite fud-as has London and
Paris for the past season. These
mascots, with their assurance of
good fortune, come in the shape of
dainty bird brooches, enameled in
blue, with simmer of silver show
ing on the wing feathers. Pendant
blue birds in gold or silver, are worn
on light chains around the neck.
Hatpins of them rival the Chantec-
leer ones, and are not half so COM
mon. A novel use of this mascot
is to have a good sized bluebird
fashioned in plush to perch on the
top of a motor car. If this is too
conspicuous, a small mascot is given
a place inside near the bouquet
holder. A bride of the autumn will
give bluebird charms for the chate-
laine to each of her bridesmaids.

are rapidly introducing the pheasant
TO the fields and forests Of this land.
Hunters in out OF the way places not
infreQuently come upon wild
pheasants, and the fact that the fields
and meadows are overrun with insects
because Of the scarcity OF native
birds makes living easy TO get, ana
they are always fat except, perhaps.

Not long ago $500 pheasants were
shipped through New York TO Kansas

cultural Department Ruthless slaugh-

wanders away to mother future wild

and large number OF pheasants were
successfully raised by Matching the

privileged to shoot them In season.
The ordinary pheasant lives fifteen
years wild and multiplses fast.
