School in the City Parks.

From the Springfield Mass, Republican
Park Commissioner Slower an
nounces that he has decided to grant
special privileges to kindergarten
classes in Central park, New York, as
well as in the other parks of Manhat-
tan so that the youngsters may pursue
their studies In the open air during
pleasant weather. He will commune
cate his plan to the board Of education
so that the teachers of the very young
children may know that they are priv
ileged to take their schools to the
parks without violating the ordinances.
The special feature of this privilege Is
that the children may mark the as
phalt walks with red, blue, yellow or
green chalk The teacher may get
down on her knees and with her COL
ored crayons draw the picture of a
horse, an elephant or an automobile
and the park police will stand by and
say nothing except to commend her
artistic skill. OF course the asphalt
will be discolored for the time being,
but a park laborer will come around
after school hours with a pail of water
aud a sponge and clean off the as
phalted blackboard.

remark Of the new parlor maid.
This girl was q greenhorn. She
didn't know the pretty daughter was
engaged to be married, and when the
pretty daughters intended called after
a weeks absence from town this Is
wat the parlor maid said to him:

The hero of the jungle took his razor from

Fireworks Replace Scarecrows.
From PQnIIlar Mech q Mica

The great grain fields of the Sand
born ranch in Shasta country. Califor-
mia, are ingeniously protected at night
from the vast flocks of wild geese and
other aquatic fowl that do immense
damage to crops, by means of a dis
play Of fireworks. Skyrockets and Ro-
man candles were bought in large
quantities by the management of the
ranch, and men are stationed at vari-
Gus points. Whenever a flock is heard
"honking'' in the distance. several sky
rockets or a shower Of colored balls
from Roman candle are sent upward,
and, as a result. the birds give the
ranch a wide berth.
