Who was requested TO tell what he thought
about honesty. 10 owed me two cents that
I won off him for q long time, but he
didn't forget il and paid me last week.
Giuseppe has a wise teacher-wiser than
the textbook. She didn't inquire how Giu-
seppe won that money off 10.
Here is something else from Giuseppe
about honesty: 4 think Jack is honest
cause once when he was hungry he could
a swiped an apple. but he wouldn't do it
He wouldn't even take a bite Of mine
Query: How did Giuseppe acquire the ap-
rle which honest Jack refused to share? !?
i looks as if this small son Of Sicily
might be good while acquiring the thirty
two virtues in the course. Giuseppe seems
To consider the endeayOr hopeless himself.
The last sentence in his smeared little pa
per on honesty records thus: My papa

a lesson on self-contTol. got so mad cause
he couldn't win Nicll's three cents that he
tried To lick Nick. but Nick smashed him
on the nose and made him yell. 7 think
Ned didn't have much self-control" This
is one of those complex compositions that
must stump a teacher 70 deal with. Here
Is another that is simpler:
Once when 1 was coming TO school, ]
saw d man SO drunk he couldn't hardly
walk He didn't have any self-control."
Was il a girl or a boy who wrote this"
Guess.
4 think girls ought to be clean. but it
don't matter. for boys, cause they have to
play in the dirty streets anyhow"
There is something pathetic in one SEN
tence written by little girl asked by her
teacher 30 give her impressions of clean
illness: Il like TO eat my hot lunch at
school, Tor il Is nicer and cleaner than
what We have at home"
Il wash my face every day I como TO

Sunday" writes 4 proud little boy
A class in one of the schools is strong on
cleanliness. but II seems TO have slumped
rather in courtesy another Of the virtues
in the course.
I'VE call the boys on our street who
don't wash their hands aud faces and comb
their hair the pig brothers," " writes one
of these children.
II doesn't seem to be very clear from
these excerpts whether what the introduc-
tion 10 this course in character building
calls "one OF the greatest needs of the
country to-day-a correction OF the deplora-
bic lack in morals is going to be served
b. these lessons or not. But the teachers
are taking hold Of il enthusiastically. The
textbook, which has a picture of Abraham
Lincoln on the title page, and includes
scores OF examples from American history,

BANK OF FRANCE SEYS AT
POLITICAL COMPLICATIONS


Washington, Apr 5.-How the
Bank of France has steered its course
clear of political complications and
has prevented financial crises by serv-
ing as a harbor of refuge for the
joint-stock banks is told in graphic
manner in a question-and-ans~er in
teTview with NJ. Pallain, governor OF
the bank, included in the publication
of the national monetary commission
which will be issued tomorrow under
the title Interviews on the Banking
and Currency Systems OF England,
France, Germany, Switzerland, Scot
land and Italy"
The story of the French bank was
told in "a conference held at the Bank
of France when Senator Aldrich, Rep
resentativs Wreeland ard other mem
bers of the commission were in Eu-
rope holding similar conferences with
the heads of the great note-issuing
and join1.stock banks
The Bank of France was founded
in the year 1900, and It's charter was
renewed in 1897, expiring in 1920.
Almost the first question asked
Governor Pallain WIS whether the
bank was ever attacked in the CON
troversies between political parties.
He answered in these words;
No charge has ever been made
that the bank favored or aided any
political party. There is never any
claim that politics enters in any de
gree into the management of the
bank Except for She renewal of the
charter in 1897, no legislation af-
fecting the bank has been enacted
since 1857. These is no sentiment
for any change in banking methods
nor for any new legislation. 1t
shouifl be added that neither the gov
ernor nor deputy governor is permit
ted 40 be a member of either body of
parliament"
The government does not owB .
share of the capital of 1S2, 50d-b00
francs tsS5,225,100), but exercises
decisive influence through the APP
pointment of the governor and uspu-
ty governors and ,one of the boards
of the bank. the governor and the
two deputy governors are appointed
by decree of the president of the re-
public upon the proposal of the min
lister of finance. Their terms of ger
vice are not fixed, but usually extend
over many years.
Some light is thrown upon the abb
scnoe of political hostility to the hank
by the number OF its branches, the
manner in which it aids small o1m-
merce and the strength which it af-
fortAs to the banking system of the
country. There are about 500 bank
ing offices scattered over France, the
more important, to the number of
127, being known as branches, and
the others as auxiliaries and agencies.
The managers are remunerated by
fixed salaries, which does not. how
ever, prevent the bank from letting
all tssecstaff participate in the results
of particularly productive years by
exceptional allowances. There is al
so pension system for employees.
which guarantees to each agent en-
titled thereto at least one-half the an
nual salary after 80 years service.

AFTER MANY
BOOIlECGERs

The federal grand jury which will
be impaneled by Judge Robert E.
Lewis today in Denver will have be-
fore it no less than forty cases for
indictments against liquor sellers
who are charged not only with vio-
lating the local option law, but who
are cited on the more serious allega-
ton of having sold whisky without
securing government license.
Federal secret service men have
been busily engaged in securing evil
dence against the liquor dispensers
for the past few months, and although
United States Internal Revenue Col
lector Frank w. Howbert is not in
clined to give out any information
concerning the action of his deputies,
it is well known that the internal
revenue men have been busy in some
of the dry" sections of the state.
That the liquor element in the
dry" parts of the state is stirred up
Is evidenced by statement made by
one of the leaders in the wet" move
.ment, that If it were not for the
revenue men there would be no trou-
BILE at this time"
The Anti-Salooa league is directly
responsible, IL IL SAID, Tor the ralu
that has been made by the revenue
authorities. 1t is claimed that in
most of the dry" counties and towns,
located in the northeastern and north
,ern part of the state, the local option
law has been so rigidly enforced that
lit was impossible for the liquor men
to secure licenses, but that they did
large bootlegging business without
first having secured government IL
eense.

That orchards OF Fruit can be pro

was amply demonstrated by an expe-
riment in the orchard of Albert KUN

fore last, Local Forecaster Sullivan
taking charge OF the work,
BY the use OF srIrndge pots, 70 to
the acre, the temperature in the Or
chard was raised AN average of be-
tween and degrees, with some
records of as high as IL degrees.
The experiments We're commenced
at midnight Wednesday night and
continued until 1880 in the morning,
at which time the temperature was
high enough to prevent all danger OF
frost.
Several thermometers were placed
about the orchard and closely
watched. The smndges were not ne
cessary until $3.50, at which time
they were lightsd and kept running
for two hours. The temperature at
that time read from 80 to SIS de-
grees, and the effect of the smudge
was to raise it 20 from SO to 40 de-
grees in the orchard and keep it uni
form. The pots were charged with
fuel oil. The cost of operating is less
than l cent per hour for each
smudge.
There was heavy frost north of
the city "Wednesday night and light
frost all through the country. 1t is
not believed that the fruit was seri-
ously hurt.
