CHILD, A HABIT

THIS is SUBJECT OF CHILD cuL-
TuRE SERIES NO. ~ PROF. A.
p. HOLLIS OF THE VALLEY CITY
NoRMAL--HABITs OF LIFETIME
FIXED AT 10.

Following is the fifth paper of the
series on child culture being issued
by Prof. A. p. Hollis of the Valley City
Normal:
After Is, says the late Prof VIM.
James of Harvard, the eminent psy-
chologist, the brain begins to set like
plaster No absolutely new and un-
colored ideas are received by the brain
after this. All ideas are modified by
the body OF ideas which receives them.
The personal habits are nearly all
formed at IS. Personal cleanliness,
bathing, manner of dress, table man
rers, habits OF speech, the walk, ges-
lures and pastures are nearly always
fastened On for good and all" by Is.
Not that there is any magic about the
age OF IS; for some it is II, for others
10 or 20; but quite close to these
years for most people, the tissues of
the body and brain begin to harden;
the paths Of nervous discharge along
the muscles have nearly all been fixed.
AS Kipling says, The ship has found
herself" and the habits of a lifetime
have settled down to mark their per-
manent grooves in the nervous stFuc-
ture.
Youth is the golden age for implant-
ing life's best habits. Habits are both
good and bad--useful and harmful. IL
is the business of society-of parents,
Of schools, to see to it that the pro-
f1table habits are started during this
golden age, and that the improbable
ones are not allowed to form. Brain
cells are plastic and yield persistent
impressions from 10 to 20. They are
of course plastic much earlier than
this, but less liable to persist in error.
Before 10 in most children the person
atty submits more to the control Of
superior personalities as parents and
teachers. Between 10 and 20--the dan
gerous, swiftly changing adolescent
period-the youth assumes new digni-
ties and new emotions. Youth and
manhood meet in tumultuous struggled
and manhood energies from the storm
and stress, wrecked or triumphant
If there are any good habits that
should be fixed for life, pleads Profess
sor James, let all the forces of human
society concentrate on their formation
during early youth. 1t is not suf-
ficient to drive out bad habits; good
ones must be implanted in their places.
Habits favorable to the growing Or
ganisn are, regular bathing, a rea-
sonable degree of personal neatness,
such as combing the hair, wearing
clean linen; pleasant home evenings,
instead Of pleasant street evenings;
erect carriage, clear enunciation and
good English, memorizing short selec-
tons of literature, attendance at re-
ligious services appropriate to the age
of the child, outdoor tramps and ex-

ideas to the effect that our agricultural
students go into clerical and mercan-

school and that they are lead away

many of the graduates from the coll

1905 (the 18th year of her existence)
the North Dakota Agricultural college

Fargo, N. D.--To The Forum: The

covered by senate bin No. 1913, which
by its terms proposes to control and
regulate the sale of intoxicating Ii
quors for medicinal purposes through

secured by those druggists who are
reputable and entitled thereto by APP
plication to the judges of our district
courts he undisturbed for the reason
that 1t is the best provision and regu-

where the officers do their duty has
proved quite successful.

TESTIMONY ENDS
IN GATSKE CASE

Both sides of the Gatzke murder
trial completed their testimony Satur-
day and the pleas to the jury began
in the afternoon. States Attorney
Kneeland made a comprehensive sum-
ming up of the case and the jury was
given the case late Saturday.
The state closed it's case late Satur
day forenoon and C.. S. Buck, Mrs.
Gatzkes attorney, made a motion to
have the case dismissed. There was
little argument over this and the
judge soon decided that it was in re-
ality a jury case. The defense then
began the examination of its witnesses.
The oldest daughter of the defendant
was the second witness called She
was on the stand when the noon re-
cess was called and she again took her
place in the afternoon. In her testi-
mony she said that on the morning
previous to the shooting, her father
had thrown a cup of coffee and other
dishes at the defendant and that he
had threatened to kill his wife and
himself.

Habits unfavorable to the growing
organism are smoking. drinking and
all forms of nerve deadening, slouchy
carriage and dress, avoidance Of

going to cheap shows and OF exeitable

its lies his destiny. for they will rise
up and thank for him in the emer-

Professor Balm lays down two rules
for habit forming that have become
classic among the psychologists and
should be household words in every
home; they are:
/. In acquisition OF a new habit or
the leaving of an old one, launch your
self with as strong and decided start
as possible.
2. Never suffer an exception to oc-
cur until the new habit is established.

FIVE TIMES IN 400 YEARS

Scientific American: With the
beginning of the second decade
OF the twentieth century (1s11)
some very strange and interest
ing facts are decided.
That the beginning of 1911 be-
ing on Sunday. the first day of
the week, the first day of the
month, and the first day OF the
year, is not so strange as that
the first day of the decades are
very few that start out on Sun
day. This singular coincidence
in the decades has occurred only
FIVE times in just 400 years, when
in 1911, according to the Gregori-
an calendar (new styie), it was
the same as now, 1911. Again it
occurred in 1851, then again in
1861, and again in 1741. and then
the last before now was the be-
ginning Of the decade 1871, forty
years ago. The next time that it
will occur will be in 1861, or fifty
years hence, and the next time af-
ter that will be POSI-; then again
in 2l41, the next in 2271, and then
again in 1911, or 400 years from
now, and so along down the ages
at periods of 400 years from each
of the years given above. 1t is
also very interesting to note that
since the beginning of the chris.
tain era, according to the Julian,
old style calendar, that the seventh
and fourteenth centuries that
is sol and 1901, are the only CEN
turtles UP TO the present time that
have started off on Sunday (the
first of the week, month and
year,, and according to the present
calculating Of time, 1t will never
occur again.

WAS LOST IN STORM.
Pinsree Minister Has q Very Mar
row Escape


Pingree Patriot: Reverend Fimme-
land had very narrow escape from
perishing in the storm Sunday. Start
ing from Peter Norlid's about o'clock
he intended to drive to town to hold
services in the afternoon. In the bliz-
gard the team got off the road and the
sleigh tipped over, the wind blowing
one of the robes a few yards away.
When he went to get the robe the team
ran away in the storm spilling out the
rest of the robes. Mr.. Fimmeland
picked up the rest of the robes and
wandered about in the storm until 3
o'clock in the afternoon, when he
came to an old deserted shack. He
found some wood and made a fire.
When the storm had abated in the
evening, he found the lost team stand
ing on the prairie near the shack, but
not knowing his whereabouts, he re-
manned there till morning. Mr. Finn
meland froze his face quite severely
and was almost exhausted when he
reached the shack and he declared
that this had served him as a good
lesson concerning North Dakota
storms.
