NEW YORK, April 27.-The Titanic
disaster has already done much 10
make ocean travel safer. Boats leav-
ing New York now are carrying more
lifeboats and life RATS than they
have been carrying. and boats arriv-
ing here, are having lifeboat drills to
show that the boats can be lowered
and that they will float when in the
water. The evidence taken in the
Senate inquiry into the Titanic dis
aster has shown that there was no
lifeboat drill during the brief trip
made by the boat before her career
was ended In mid-ocean, and il has
been proved that members of the crew
did not know to which boats they
we're assigned. The accompanying
pictures Of a boat drill on the Kaiser
Wilhelm II. were made as the boa;
was I'm her dock here.

childrsn's Manners.

Good manners as we'll as charity
should begin at home; therefore par
ents cannot begin too early to teach
their children how to talk and how to
behave.
A child should say "Yes, father,
''No. Mrs. Blank" or THANK you. Mis-
so-and-so," never mo, sir" "Yes
ma'am," or merely YES" mo" OF
"Thank you" The latter forms o.
speech are used by servants only.
A child should always wait to bt
spoken to by an older person. He OF
she should never interrupt In a conver
sation.
A boy can hardly learn too early thai
he should stand when woman o.
young girl enters the room or comes e
the dining table after he is seated. Al
children. both boys and girls, should b.
taught to stand whenever they are
spoken to by older persons No chill,
should remain seated when older per
sons are standing In the group Of whicl
they are members.
10 lose one temper WIN Nhhu d
one OF the greatest mistakes a paren
can make. In a childs mind to b.
mad" is naughty; therefore when IL
ther OF mother is angry OF irritable th
child notices II and feels that II his O
her parents can do this why shou
they scold the child for the very sam
fault? Example means everything I
a child; therefore II you want you
child not only to be good and cleve
but TO have good manners and to tai
well, remember you parents set Il
example in all.

Points
for
Mothers

Correcting Children In public.
A habit that parents have acquired
is that Of reproving their little ones in
public, causing them endless mortifca-
ton. There is something very small
IN the idea Of wishing to cause a child
humiliation and pain. and yet there are
hundreds of parents who do It ten
times day. meaning only the best for
their children. The parents sole
thought is. I'm shame my little one
30 that he'll never do such a thing
again." forgetting what marks that
shame will leave on the child's char
acter.
Every one has met the mother who
is continually nagging at her children.
For instance. she will choose the op-
portunity to say to her little girl. when
the room is full OF guests. For good
ness sake. Betty, can't you sit up
straight? Here's Just the way you're
punched over" Then a caricatured
imitation Of the chllds dropping shoul-
ders is given. or else it is. Cant
you be still one moments" or 81 never
saw such an awkward child in my
life" each one OF these remarks send
ing a sharp sting to the heart of the
little girl. already self conscious up-
der the eyes Of so many people. Yet
this is a most conscientious, devoted
mother.
Once I'm awhile one meets a mother
who realizes the pangs that humilia-
tion brings to children. and she does
the wise thing. For instance, such
mother does not send her mischievous
son away from the table when there
are guests present with n sharp reprooi
for misbehaviour she calls him pleas
antly TO her side whispers to him 10
wait a few minutes. then to excuse
himself and go to his room. This
spares him the needless pain of public
exposure. You may be sure that the
son OF such a mother would grow up
quite as obedlent as the boy with the
nagging parent. and the first boy
would have the perfect breeding which
comes from constant association with
well bred people.

80 CHICKS
OUT OF'29
EGGS? SURE,
EIIlCrsSt Association Hears
Problem in Poultry Raising
That StumpS Members
MALLOYs, HOWEVER
HAVE BEEN SHOWN

The advertisement Of an incubator
that fifty-one chicks have been hatch
ed out of fifty eggs has found a
match in the experience Of Maurice
S. Malloy as related at the meeting
last night of the Hillcrest Improve
mcnt Association. Mr.. Malloy an
nounced that he set two hens with
fifteen eggs each. They were black
Minorca eggs. A few days after the
hens began their twenty-one days
session. one egg was broken, which.
the mathematical experts will observe,
left twenty-niue.
Now the hatch is out and Mr.. NAL
10y was rather excited when he
counted thirty chickens. He count
ed them several times, and then call
ed Mrs. Malloy TO count them She
also found thirty Mr. Malloy Is
willing for anyone to verify the count.
In attempting to account for the
extra chicken II was suggested that
there had been a double yolk egg and
that It had produced two chickens.
But Mr.. Malloy further explained that
one chicken out of tho thirty is a
Rhode Island Red and as the hens
were Rhode Island Reds, he supposed
was beginning her task OF incubation
Nature lovers will regret that this
fact will interfere with the possibility
that a double yolked egg could have
produced q black Minorca from one
end and a Rhode Island Red from
the other
