Prepared For Him.

The member OF the board OF education
who was visiting one OF the schools in
the primary department had made a little
speech to the children on the importance
of correct pronunciation. Picking up
chalk crayon. he wrote the word chem

"To give you an example, boys and
girls" he said, 81 wonder how many o'
you know how to pronounce that word. y
"HaynuS!" shouted the children in
concert.
"Miss Guernsey" said the visitor
turning suspiciously to the teacher, chow

81 didn't know it, Mr.. Judson," she
answered, "but am something OF crank

served in 200, 900 churches in the country
manner similar to that Of "Iuoe'cu-
osis Sunday in 1910, when over 4e'0Oo
sermons were preached on the proven
ton of consumption. In this INST ON
cial announcement of the occasion made
nv the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis today,
the leaders of the movement state tIlal
they hope to enlist all of the 33,OOO'oOo
church members in the country. 49,
In one respect tuberculosis Day VIII
differ from tuberculosis Sunday OF 1910
Instead of requesting the churches to give
TO the tuberculosis cause special SUM-
day service, the National Association IS
going TO ask this year that meetings. al
which the subject OF tuberculosis ard It's
prevention can be discussed, be held on
SUNDAY, April 30th, or on any other day
near that date, either in the week preced-
ing or the week following. "What we
want" saws DR.. Livingston Farrand, EX-
ecutive Secretary OF the National AsSo-
citation for the Study and Prevention CT
tuberculosis. il a report on this move
ment "is to have this whole subject OF
tuberculosis discussed in all OF the w.
600 churches OF the United States at as
nearly the same time as possible. This
does not mean that a stated service must
be given over to this work, though mat
might be desirable, but that any minister
or other authority whom he ma, invite,
can present his problem to his congrega-
ton before or after his regular service
or any day within the week preceding or
following April 3Oth."
The National Association is planning
to gather statistics from thousands OF
ministers, showing how serious a problem
tuberculosis is to every church. These
figures will show among other things the
number OF deaths last year from tuoercu-
losis in the church congregation, and the
ways in which the pastors are called on
to minister to sufferers from this disease.
1t is planned to issue millions OF circulars
and pamphlets on the prevention OF I'LL
berculosis, both from the national office
and from the headquarters OF the 45O anti
tuberculosis associations who will coop
crate in the movement.

Hens Law Favored Eggs.


Celebrating scheme of fellowtrades-
man in Connecticut who induced his hens
TO lay by deceiving them as TO The. sea-
son OF the year, Charles 5. Cooaey3 who
conducts greenhouse at Livingston, N
l., has succeeded even beyond ms nope.
The Connecticut man screened one end
of his small greenhouse as hen yard.
His chickens, turned into this inclos-
ure and looking through at the geraniuns
and other plants, were fooled into a be-
lief that summer was at hand, and they
began laying at top speed.
Mr.. Cooney entered into the expert
ment on large scale. Three weeks
ago he fenced off with large mesh wire
screen space about 20x30 feet in the
center OF his plant He picked OFT eight
OF his finest Leghorn hens and put them
IN the corral. Mr.. Cooney figured that
if looking through screen on one side
of hen yard would make hens think
summer had come, the prospect on the
four sides of yard would make them
think several summers had arrived and
thus stimulate them to even greater egg
laying activity.
He theorized correctly. FirSthe began
to get eight eggs day from the eight
hens. Then the number began to in
crease until about two weeks ago, on
the word OF Mr.. Cooney, who is man
of heretofore unquestioned veraclty, each
hen began laying two eggs day. AT
least, that average was maintained. Sew
eral DAYS later the average increased TO
two and one-eighth eggs day. This
rate has been maintained since. The
pleased owner is in doubt whether the
extra egg is laid always by the same hen
or all of the colony take turns in laying
it.
The strangest part of Mr.. Cooney's
experiment, however, lies in the influ-
ence on the chickens in the proximity Of
the plants and flowers that surround them
on all sides. The eggs from the chick
ems used in the experiment after the first
few days OF their confinement began to
have a peculiar and especially dainty
flavor. The shells were more or less
tinted. He observed that when not en-
gagged in scratching for food, and even
on their nests, the birds would stand or
lie in .rapt admiration OF the flowers.
Some would gaze for several minutes at
time at American Beauty roses, while
others would find pleasure in viewing
the carnations or violetS. Others were
wont to cast their eyes on geraniums
that flauked one side of the Enclosure.
The eggs, according to Mr.. Cooney,
seemed to take on distinctive flavors and
distinctive tints OF the flowers most ad-
mired by the birds.
The demand for geranium flavored,
rose colored and other tinted eggs is
likely to be such, Mr.. Cooney hopes, that
the price he may demand will be much
higher than the present rate OF TO cents
a dozen.

DR.. Charles Hi Keene, of Minneapolis,
in public statement says that the high
French heels which high school girls
wear are the cause OF deformed feet that
have to be cured by physical culture, and
therefore such heels are TO be barred from
the school.
DR.. Keene will have the physical in
structor in the high school find out how
many girls have curvature OF the spine.
He has found many boys in the Minneap-
oils schools so afflicted He attributed
the prevalence of curvature OF the spine
to bad posture, both in sitting and stand
ing, and TO faulty customs and TO improp-
er footwear, such as French heeled shoes.
