The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1912-06-04

United States with the report that the
East is to be the center of the great
est governmental activities of the TWEEN
tieth century and our position in the
Philippines has made 1t possible for
those on the ground to get an insight
into these problems and take very
active part in their solution insofar as
the participation by the United States
government is concerned.
The development of the American
public school system in the Philip
pines, modified to meet local condi-
tions, has been a most remarkable one
during the past ten years, yet the
opportunity for further growth is very
great The organization is still in its
primitive period and these hundred
young men who have just sailed from
San Francisco to add their training
and experience to the nine thousand
American and Filipino teachers al
ready on the ground and familiar with
the local situation, will result in
very material advance in the perform
ance of our obligations in the Philip
pines

CHARM OF TURoENEV.

'"Turgenev," says William Lyon
Phelps in his essay on the novelist,
although an Incorporating real
list, was at heart always a poet. In
reading him we feel that what he
says is true; it is life indeed; but
we also feel an inexpresSible charm.
1t is the mysterious charm of music
that makes our hearts swell and our
eyes swim. He saw life, as every
one must see it, through the medium
of his own soul. AS Joseph Conrad
has said, no novelist describes the
world; he simply describes his own
world. !"

USING the Left Hand.

Why is 1t that we neglect to use
the left hand so much? asks London
Answers.
Among English-speaking people 81
out of every 100 are right-handed
when they reach maturity. Out OF
every 100 such persons II are born
right-handed, and the remaining SO
are born without preference as to
either hand. Eighty are Influenced to
become strongly right-handed during
the early childhood.
No great asset Of the world is so
neglected as the average left hand.
Formerly all the world was ambidex-
trous. Primitive man had no prefer
erence which hand he used. And in
various parts of the world efforts are
now being made to revive the use of
the left hand.
Japan has for many years been
teaching two-handedness to the men
of her army and in her public schools.
The German government is following
Japan's example. Sir Robert Baden
Powell hero of the siege of Mafeking
and founder of the Boy Scouts, does
not consider a man well-trained SOL

Day 10 Almost Gone When He 10
Made the confdant Of
Rulers.

The recent appointment Of DR..
G.. e. Morrison, the well-known
English newspaper correspondent, as
adviser to the new Chinese govern
ment, is an exception which empha-
sizes the fact that the day is almost
gone when the journalist is the con-
fdant Of rulers OF course, one rea-
son is the passing Of master journal
lists Of the type Of Delane, Blowitz
or Greeley. 1t is probable that none
of those men could flourish today as
they did in their time, for the rea-
son that journalism itself has under
gone a tremendous change.
When Henri de Blowitz got his
famous Cheat" on the Berlin treaty
of 1878 it was the result Of years of
intimate contact and service to
craftsmanship. There were 'leaks''
in those days that spelled fame and
fortune for the man who caught the
leakage.
Such relationship is well-nigh
impossible now. Today, and espe-
cially in our own country, the whole
machinery of government is press
ACCENTED, so to speak. Every great
department of our national life has
a man whose function is to dissemi-
nate to the public, and through the
press, knowledge of its activities.
Rarely, indeed, does great piece Of
exclusive news come out of Washing
ton-or, for that matter, from the
European capitals.
All which simply goes to show
that news, like everything else, has
come to be a matter Of system

A huge wall of water swept down

the surrounding high land, while others
sought refuge in the tops of their
houses. When the flood reached the
settlement its depth was estimated at

mostly shacks, were broken up like

crest of the wave, being hurled aside
in the ruins as the valley b~roadened

into the bay. p.
The Chinese and Japanese sections

Havana, Feb. 12.-The wreck of the

the dam is about IA feet below the har-

admit more water more rapidly, so that
the wreck will be raised to the harbor

except to break the dam and float off

Water was forced into the dam
through a system of pipes fixed at the
bottom of the dam, the power being
supplied by a pump which had been
recovered from the wreck. The ship

SOME GENERAL SUGGESTIONS.
FOR SERVING.

SOME GENERAL SUGGESTIONS.
FOR SERVING.
Move as noiselessly and handle
dishes as carefully as possible.
Serve hot things hot and cold things:
cold.
A well and neatly-laid table is a big
step toward a good meal.
Fill the glasses two-thirds full. Do
not lift a glass when filling 1t, but II
necessary draw it to the edge of the
table, eve touching the top of the.
glass.
Finger bowls are to be filled one
third full; a rose or petals, a leaf or
a bit of lemon, IN the bowl is an addi-
ton.
Water should be put into the glasses
the very last thing before the guests.
are seated.
Never reach in front of a person
when serving; serve to the left when
the food is a matter of choice by the
guest. Il
. Remove all dishes from the right
and place all food not chosen at the
right.
Relishes, like nuts, olives and
pickles, may be left during the entire
meal for the guest to help himself.
A dolly should be placed between
the plate and the sherbet cup as we'll
as under the finger bowl.
With the salad, crackers or bread
and butter are served. .z
Sugar and cream should always be
passed with black coffee, as many pre-
fer it.
One service should be removed at a
time, not stacking the dishes; this
savors too much Of boarding house
life.
When changing courses, every thing
pertaining to the previous course
should be removed. s+g
Two vegetables may be passed at
once at the left, allowing the guest to
help himself.
The knife and fork should be placed
side by side when passing the plate
to be %replenished or when the course
is finished
The intimate process of mastication
should be performed in as noiseless a
manner as possible with a closed
mouth. This may seem superfuous
advice, but existing circumstances
warrant a reminder.
