The School
PARENTS SHOULD SEE THAT IT
Ie ATTRACTIVE AND
WELL AIRED.

THERE is a movement on foot all
i over this country to beautify the
schoolhouse.
Our children spend the greater part
of their day in IL. Its ugly walls and
hard. uncomfortable desks and benches
affect them both mentally and phys
icaliy. 1t is bad enough to cramp the
muscles of a growing child. 1t Is just
as bad to dwarf its love for the peauu-
full by ugly surroundings.
Softly toned walls are merely 1ues-
tion of n can of paint and paint Is not
expensive. A few good prints and
photographs, not to speak Of cheap
casts. may be supplied for a small sum
by the parents themselves IL the schooi
board is not sufficiently Interested.
Children respond to their surround
ings. Although they may be destruc-
tive by nature. they are soon, even
against their wills. impressed by the
beauty of harmonious surroundings.
and they want to keep things nice IL
things are made nice for them.
A love of flowers and growing things
should be instilled early into the heart
OF every child. The walls of the
schoolhouse should be made beautiful
with vines, and the school GROUNDS
should be planted with flowers ana
vines by the students. "a
A good library should be estabilsheo
I'm every school for the benefit OF the
scholars. where they may obtain fiction
and history suited to their years In
stead of the unsuitable and sometimes
dangerous books they obtain from the
general libraries. The books should be
of the sort that form character without
being priggish. The girls books should
make them more womanly; the boys
stories should help the latter to grow
up manly There is plenty OF good
fiction along these lines.
Last and not least. the ventilation OF
the schoohouso should be above re-
proach. 1t is indeed useless to study
In close atmosphere, and many cases
of stupidity are without doubt due to
bad air.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. as.
Examinations are being held In
fourteen far Western states. and III

sistant forest rangers on the ma
tional forests. The examinations
are held at national forest headquar.
tiers in all states In which national
forests are located. except in Arkan-

days.
The positions pay, at entrance. a
salary of SLIGO per annum. Men
who enter the national forest work
as assistant rangers are eligible for
promotion to positions as rangers,
and later to the position of forest
supervisor, II they are good enough.
The latter position pays salary of
from $1,000 up. and calls both for
all-round executive ability and for a
certain amount of practical knowl-
edge of forestry. Rangers work un-

Prices Are Soaring Higher
and Higher as One of
the Results.

ST. PAUL, Mimi. oct. 24-The
man who plans to give his wife, his
daughter. or some other mans
daughters, a seal skin coat for a
Christmas remembrance this year
will have to pay more for it than
ever before, according to furrlers
and jobbers OF st. Paul, the largest
market for fur goods in the United
States, If not the world.
The woman who misses getting a
sealskin coat, probably the most
priced of all garments worn by the
fair sex, because of this added cost,
can blame It on Uncle Sam and his
members of Congress. BY recent
act OF Congress it was made unlaw-
full to kill seals after May and
this law has about put the sealskin
line OF trade out of business. This
act has made sealskln SO scarce that
coat, say so inches long, will cost
$1,000 this year. The st. Paul
manufacturer, however, has found
ready sale for all he could make and
the factories have been kept busy
supplying the demand. Bisam seals
have been used much this year in
place of the genuine fur. These are
made OF muskrat fur, which is very
fine and is guaranteed to keep my
lady as warm as the real thing.
Near and electric seals have also
been made into many coats. Ths
Russian pony and caracul skins are
next in demand, In small furs the
mink holds its popularity.
Despite the higher cost the St.
Paul fur jobbers have enjoyed the
largest business of their history this
year Representatives of st. Paul
fur houses are now in all parts of
the world to purchase supplies for
next years use. The St. Paul
houses buy in winter and manufac-
ture in summer because the fur pro-
ducing animal is trapped at the sea
