Legacies Against Public Policies

The number of wills wherein rich hus-
bands have left large sums to their wives
on condition that they do not marry again
has started the question whether such
wills are not against public policy. 1t is a
question with strong arguments on both
sides On the husband side are consid.
erations touching the welfare OF children
and the right of the wife to her claims
under the common law. On the wfe's
side is her right to the provision of the
will to be used in accordance with her
judgment, to the exercise of which right
the welfare of the children may be Justly
conhded.
But if wife's rights to legacy are to
be conditioned upon her not marrying
again, why should not the husband be re-
stricted in the disposition Of his property
If the rights Of the children are to be re.
duced by the mother remarrying, the ie-
marriage of the hasband will have the
same results. 1t ought to be as fair for
the goose as for the gander Ohio State

Replace Small Engines.
TELEPHONE No. 272.

A new order, regulating the moving
OF freight trains in the yards of the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad at RiehI's
Mills, this county, went into effect on
Saturday. June Ist The nine small
engines that have been used in moving
heavy freight trains up the grades will be
replaced by the use of the three large
engines of the Mallet type.
By the new arrangement about thirty
men will be laid off. Heretofore the
large freight trains have been pushed
over the grades by the aid Of two en-
gines, in the rear of the caboose of the
trains, and by the new order, the work
of the two engines will be done by the
one large engine. -- ~ ss.

TIE CHRISTIAN MOTHER.

Now. suppose that Christ should come
into your house First, the wife and
mother would feel His presence. Re-
ligion almost always begins there. 1t is
easier for women to become Christians,
than it is tor men. They do not fight SO
against God If women originally
tempted man away from holiness, now
she tempts him back. She may not
make anv fuss about it, but then some
how, everybody in the house knows that
there is a great change in the wife and
mother. She chides the children more
gently. Her face lights up with an I'M
earthly glow some times. She goes into
some unoccupied room for little while,
and her husband does not go after her
nor asks her while she was there. He
knows without asking that she has been
praying. The husband notices that her
face is brighter than on the days when
years ago they stood at the marriage
altar, and he knows that Jesus has been
putting upon her brow wreath sweeter
than the orange blossoms. She puts the
children to bed, and not satisfied with
the formal PRAYER that they once offered,
but she fingers now and tells them of
Jesus who blessed little children and of
the good place that they all hope to be
at last. And then she kisses them good
night with something that the child feels
to be benediction-a some thing that
should hold on to the boy after he gets
to be man 30 or so years of age, for
there is something in a good, loving,
Christian mothers kiss that so years can
not wipe off o; his cheek
When one is inclined to worry, the
remark of an old lady should be recalled:
"Yes dearies, I've had an awful heap of
trouble in my time, and the most of it
never happened"

Frederick Driving Club Makes
Plans.

d. Princeton Buckley has been chosen
president of the Frederick Driving Club
to succeed DR.. r. v Smith, who resign
ed. AT meeting of the club plans we're
further perfected for holding the matinee
of the club to be held here on July d.
From the present outlook this event will
he the greatest in the history of the asso-
citation, which in the past has given some|
very creditable matinees. This yearl
motorcycle races, and horse show are|
expected to prove most attractive features|
in addition to the races by number of
horses from this and adjoining counties.
While all the plans for the day have|
not been perfected, yet the club has putt
out its advertising matter, and handsome|
Autographs have been posted throughout
the county, and in other sections along
the railroads.

PROMPT PEOPLE.

Don't live single hour without doing
exactly what is to be done in it, and then
go straight through it from beginning to
end. Work, play, or study. whatever it
is, take hold at once and finish it up
squarely; then to the next thing, without
letting any moments drop between. 1t
is wonderful to see how many hours
these prompt people contrive to make of
a day; it is as if they picked up the mo-
ments that the dawders lost. And if you
find yourself where YOU have so many
things pressing, upon you that you
hardly know how to begin, let us tell you
a secret. Take hold of the very first one
that comes to hand, and you will find
that the rest will all fall into line, and
follow after, like a company of well
| drilled soldiers; and though the work
may be hard enough to meet when il
charges in a squad, it is easily van
qushed if you can bring it into line.
What is needed most of all in bringing
up children is example. What they see
and hear and take in by absorption II

The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1912-06-07

Women have exercised a remarkable
judgment in regard to great issues. They
have prevented the casting aside of plans
that have led to very great discoveries
and inventions. When Columbus laid a
plan to discover the new world. he could
not get hearing until he applied to a
woman for help Woman equips man
for the voyage Of life. She is very sell
dom a leader in any project. but meets
her peculiar and best attitudes as a
helper Though man executes a project
she fits him for it beginning in his child.
hood, A man discovered America, but
a woman equipped the voyage; SO every
where, man executes the performance,
but woman trains the man.

CHILDREN.


die, or WeepS over a tomb. He who has
never tried the companionship of little
child, has careleSsy passed by one of
the greatest pleasures of life, as one
passes a rare flower without plucking
it or knowing its value. And to you
whose homes are blessed with the little
prattlers, have patience and enjov them
while you may. They will not trouble
you long. Children grow up-nothing
on earth grows so fast as children. 1t
was but Yesterday. and that lad was
playing with tops and was but a buoy
ant boy. He is a man and gone now.
There is no more childhood for him nor
for US Life has claimed him. When a
beginning is made. it is like unraveling
a stocking, stitch by stitch gives
away until all are gone The house has
not child in it-there is no more noise
in the hall-boys rushing in pell nell.
1t is very orderly now. There are no
more skates or sleds, bat. balls or
strings left scattered around, things are
very neat and orderly. There is no de-
lay now for sleepy folks; there is no
longer any task before you lie down, or
looking after any body and tucking in the
bed clothes.
Oh for some children noise. We wish
that our neighbors would lend us an ur-
chin or two to make little noise in
these premises. A home without chill
dren is like a garden and no flowers.
We want to be tired, to be vexed, to be
run over, to hear children at work with
all of its varieties.
