CURTAINS IN THE BEDROOM
Economy May Be Combined With
Good Taste in the Manner De-
scribed in This Article.

In making curtains for the bedroom
windows you can economic in ma
terlal by selecting swiss or scrim the
width of the window. Now measure
of the length you desire the curtains
and cut the material from corner to
corner on the bias. In other words,
cut from the lower left-hand corner to
the upper right-hand corner
TO this bias edge apply a rutiie
either of the material OF of coarse
lace.
Finish the joining seam neatly by
stitching a strip of featherstitched
braid or a narrow bias fold over the
ruff1e and seam edge.
Now finish the broad straight edge
at the top with hem and narrow
casing, through which is run tape
the length of the width of the window.
The curtains are then shirred over
the tape or small brass rods and at
tached to the windows.
Drape them to each side of the win
dow with ribbons or cotton cords,
and you will have pair of very good
looking curtains, made from the guam
tity of material generally employed
in making one curtain.

who could and would grapple inEell-
gently and effectively with the prob
lens confronting them.
Where districts are not large enough
to support higher-priced teachers
without unduly burdening the tax
payers, consolidation is the solution Of
the problem.
1t is only In comparatively few
cases that this would be necessary.
and when the consolidation of dis
tricts involves too much travel for pu~

1t is one OF the bad aspects in every
farming district that there are many
people who are Indifferent about hav-
ing their children attend school reg
ularly.
If there is any little duty about the
farm where the boys and girls can be
worked to advantage, the parents do
not hesitate to keep them from their
school work, for as long period as
they can be profitably used. This Is
one of the most important reforms

the teachers. Coupled with in exper-
lence in many cases, there is q lack
OF interest Assuming, however, that
every teacher has a proper amount Of
interest in her school, and a devotion
to the cause of education, 1t is rank
folly to look for practical results on
an extensive scale, from an instructor
between sixteen and twenty years of
age.
Thousands are teaching all over the
west and middle west who are still In
their teens, and who have no broader
views Of life than they imbibed while
hurrying through a high school or
academy course. In the nature of
things, such teachers cannot impart
respect and love for agriculture. a
lofty public spirit, taste for home
making, or a skill which will enable
the young people OF the farms to lift
themselves out of the rut In which
their fathers and grandfathers have
pIodded year after year.
What can these young teachers, boys
and girls just out Of school, know
about one of the greatest problems
confronting American society today?
This problem is. as suggested by for

RAISED DUCKS IN BATH TUB
Colorado Man Gets Setback by Cold

Boulder, Colo.-To raise prize win

man, who owns number OF Indian
runner ducks. He wanted them to be
In good condition for the Boulder poul-
try show, but the cold weather came
on and the ducks began to look shag-
gy. Brown studied over the situa-
ton. Finally he gathered up his
choicest ducks and took them to the
house. where he announced to the
family they would have to return to
the tub back of the range or use the
kitchen kettle for their baths, for he
needed the bathroom.
Filling the tub with water and plac-
ing the ducks there. he closed the
door of the bathroom. a broad smile
wreathing his countenance- The birds
won first prize.
