take their chances and that at the worst
the only consequences of a tumble or
two may be few bumps and bruises.
But the figures recently given out by
the National Highways Protective So
eiety startle one into believing that there
Is ample ground for the impression, and
that the sport Is just as dangerous as
II looks.
In the ten months OF this year in
Greater New York lO6 young lives were
sacrificed to the craze for roller skating.
Sometimes the trouble came at the
hands Of automobiles or heavy trucks,
and sometimes the boys and girls, going
faster and faster on their down-hill-
coast, fell-and that ended II all. For
they gain great speed as they get under
way, and when an accident comes the
blow is pretty heavy, and the little folk

MRS. WILSON IS A
SPLENDID COCK
Wife Of President-elsct Is a Model
Housekeeper.

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson. wife OF the next
President of the United States, is a
Southern woman--a native of Georgia.
She Is a model houEekeeper, an expert
In the kitchen. and particularly proud Of
her ability to cook the famous Southern
dishes.
Mr.. wilson il also a Southerner. and
Southern cooking goes in the Wilson
household.
"Gov. Wilson since his marriage has
lived on Southern chicken" says Mrs.
Wilson. you see, we have always had
cooks from the South or those who were
Southern born. and they know how to
cook chicken better than anybody In the
world. the Governor thinks. He would
rather have chicken Southern style than
q foreign-cooked banquet.
The Governors idea OF fne din
ner includes chicken Southern style, rice
and corn. fruit and a salad.
Never do we have q meal without
rice.
And can you cook rice-said by many
cooks to be the most difficult of vegeta-
bles?" she was asked.
Two Ways to Cook Rice.
Yes, indeed. can cook rice. have
always taught my cooks ever since my
marriage to cook rice. as / have taught
them how to cook anything we liked
which they did not know how to cook.
Now, there are two ways of cooking rice
one is steaming Il: by taking two or
three quarts of boiling water, putting
in salt to taste and a cup Of dry rice,
cleaned by rubbing through a napkin
and poured in a little at a time; let II
boil hard twenty minutes. then drain
through a colander and let 1t stand on a
hot part OF the stove for a few minutes
Ask any Southerner II that won't be
beautifully cooked rice"
Mrs. Wilson has been accused OF be-
ing extravagant in dress. Her views on
the subject would seem TO disprove this
Clothes should consume a part of any
thoughtful woman's time" she said. but
too much dress should not be put upon
them. a woman with any sense OF the
artistic knows intuitively what to wear
and clothes are an easy matter to select
in these days, when home dressing is 80
easy
Is Not a SunraEfst.
On the subject OF suffrage she says:
while my daughter Jessie is an out
snd-out suffragist, / cannot say that
am. though no one in our family is an
anti-suffragist. As my husband eX-
presses IT, l feel that am In the middle
the question from my own personal
standpoint, and from that of women
similarly placed. l should say that We
do not need suffrage. either for our pro-
lection or for influence.
But when l hear the arguments of
social wOrkers-of my Jessie-I am in
clined to believe that it is necessary To-
the working women. In fact, the attitude
of these workers who come In direct con-
tact with the working women of our
country Is the strongest argument have
met for the woman vote. But l do not
think at the present time it is necessary
to the great body OF women"
In recent years Mrs. Wilson has taken
up the art OF painting. which she began
in her girlhOod, and her work is being
favorably commented on by critics.

Unfair to Children.

Few, very few of our cities, are fair
to the children. They warn them that
they must not do this and they cannot
do that; they must not play ball for fear
Of broken windows and they must not
play with roller skates for fear OF
broken heads. Rightly enough they are
scolded and threatened when they run
In front of cars and heavy trucks on the
busy streets, because they worry the
drivers and run the risk of something
worse. They are told they're a nuisance
with their shouting, they run staid
pedestrians down with their bicycles,
they give them a shock with their skat-
irg, and the street IL no place for their
games.
But cities do not tell them where TO
20, do not, in sufficient numbers, pro-
vide big open spaces where there is no
tody TO ''can them down." and do not
make up for half the "don'ts'' that are
uttered.
Every once in a while We are con-
fronted with some great demand that
We are told is a public necessity. We
must have this for the sake OF the city s
fair name We need that TO show that
we are progressive, and there is some
thing else that is a common comfort,
and of course that cannot go by the
board.
The city wants them. the city needs
them: and money is appropriated and
space devoted to the improvements that
will make the city grow.
But the children? They want more
Fairgrounds, and they need them, too,
for the sake of growing big and strong
and wholesome like the blossoms that
have light. air, and room a-plenty.
The bigger and more crowded the city,
the greater the need for Fairgrounds,
that there is no play-problem at all. 1t
was in little village this summer that
a party of city folk saw scores OF chill
6ren playing about in the streets. That.
of itself. was nothing, for they always
will play there. But the strangers look
ed about them for the traditional will
lage green looked for front yards, back
yards, too; and they did not wonder that
the boys and girls flocked out to the
sfreetS-there was nowhere else to go.
The rich folk, the well-to-do folk, the
comfortable everywhere, do not always
think very much about Fairgrounds
Their boys and girls can play in the
open and can keep OF the busy streets,
but of those los children killed while
roller skating, most OF them skated and
had no play space of their own and no
big place where they could go.
Children do not have to skate, do not
have to romp and shout or play on the
city streets, but nature made them want
and need to, and cities should give them
the space.

worth While to Take Care.

Probably those figures are not ap-
preached in any other city in the world.
Europe cannot equal them anywhere.
and surely our smaller cities and towns
do not pay so dearly for the childish
pastime. But II is worth while for
fathers and mothers everywhere to take
care when their little folk indulge their
fancy for the sport; and IL they do not
bar out the level spots they can stand
guard over the graves.
A day or 20 ago when three little tots
were seen speeding and coasting about
on skates that fairly skipped over the
81 ound, some passersby were heard to
romark that there would be some broken
heads or shattered bones before many
days went by II that racing kept up
much longer. The only reply was Non
sense" and as no direful reports have
been heard presumably all has gone well
with the young racers. but those los
deaths in one great city, just from roller
skating, make one realize that Non
sense is not all that should be said.
Whatever else those figures may en-
phasize. there Is the one great crying
need thTt they bring to light-the need
Of the children for Fairgrounds where
they can gather together and play to
their hearts content, just as noisily or
as quietly as they like.

says an exchange. II is based on as
sertions which The judges of the court
are too lenient with many offenders,
and one OF the chief points at issue is
the working Of the law authorizing
judges TO suspend sentences on
showing that the convicted person is
not a hardened offender and VII lead
an upright life. Mr. Fosdick says the
police figures show that there were
1889 suspensions out OF 4.S03 convic-
tions in a years record OF the court
He does not question the value Of the

The Illinois statute for adult proba-
ton, similar to the New York law
has been in operation in Chicago six
months. The chief probation officer
Mr. Houston. Is enthusiastic about
the results obtained. though he finds
il difficult TO make many first Of
Tenders live up 10 their promise of

about the use OF the statute by judges.
It is obvious that the adult proba-

in defense OF the working of the New

THE COFFEE CORNER.

In denying the governments appli-
cation for a temporary injunction re-
straining the New York Dock COM
pany and Hermann Sielcken from
disposing of $4,000 bags of coffee
stored here, the federal circuit court
has by no means halted the depart
ment of justice, comments the New
York World. AS Justice LacOmbe's
opinion says. there are too many ele-
ments of uncertainty in the case to
stop the sale in advance of the trial.
The government will go forward with
its conspiracy proceedings, and it
should certainly do so.
There is an admitted difficulty and
embarrassment in the fact that the
coffee in question is nominally the
property of the Brazilian state of Sac
Paulo, upon which the ''valorization"
trust of bankers has merely made ad-
vances
At the instigation of the trust the
Brazilian government has taken he
roic measures to check the increase
of coffee production and create an
artificial scarcity. We cannot pre-
vent that, even if Brazil were to throw
one-tenth of the annual crop into the
sea, as was once eheerfully proposed
But so far as this country is concern
ed, we have every right to protest
against the greedy combination whose
taxation of the American breakfast
table through doubled prices 'on cof-
fee runs counter to the unbroken
spirit of Anglo-Saxon Jurisprudence
from the earliest sources of the Eng
lish common law down TO the passage
OF the Sherman act.

THE TARIFF BOARD.

The present tariff board may pass
by the wayside but the idea Of a per-
manent tariff commission with much
power towards adjusting schedules
will not pass away.
The present tariff board came into
existence under rather unfavorable
auspices. The bill for the board was
passed by standpat congress and the
board selected by President Taft has
been generally regarded as of reac-
tionary character. Real tariff re-
formers have looked upon the board
with something like disdain because
they have found it obstructive rather
than otherwise. They have regarded
the board as small life preserver to
be thrown the consuming public They
have been impatient Of such a meth
oo and have wanted to plunge in
boldly and remedy conditions by cut
ting down the tariff on trust made
goods.
If the present board is abolished it
will be more or less blow at the plan
OF adjusting schedules by the COM
mission method. Nevertheless the
government will come back to that
method because the tariff is an in

Keep a small hammer on the sew
