The Folding Nursery

THAT Is exactly what 1t is--e
whole nursery within the compact
space Of a child's crib. made from
white enameled iron with a swinging
bed, SO placed within its frame that it
may be pushed under an ordinary bed
out Of the way in daytime and IN such
juxtaposition to the mother during the
night that she need not move from her
rest in order to care for her little one.
This new nursery Is easily moved from
place to place and when used In sum-
mer there is heavy netting which in
sures perfect comfort for the child. Ev-
cry part of the bed and the bedding II
sanitary. and there is sanitary box
attached to the side OF the bed to hold
all food receptacles.

iof eponge and silk is favorite, and
when used with eponge it makes the
fabric look more like a bath towel
than ever, but wool lace that is equally
used as a decoration for these gowns is
more in keeping with the rather rough
nature of the material
| A costume of eponge as well as of
hopsacking and serge never looks SO
well as when 1t is perfectly plain and
lunadorned. and this year many OF the
best looking of these suits have only
button trimmings. Little sets of but
tons, about five in a group, are often
introduced on the skirt seams of a cloth
costume, while bigger buttons play
| their part on the coat. The most popu-
lar of these is mother-of- pearl. and

some good crops seen on the road

SO. MINI. and Nor. Western Iowa
the corn crop is far from promis-
ing and oats are very short. In
central Nebraska he saw many
farmers still cutivating their
corn fields, and some would not
average more than 2 or 8 feet
high. The outlook for corn
crop is poor indeed. Mr.. Hoffman
saw no crops on the entire trip
that compare with ours in Rich

How 70 savs the Children.

Some there are who claim that
what is needed TO save our boys is
to take them before they have
reached their sixteenth year and
have physicians tell them, in plain
out-spoken language, the awful
penalty they must pay il they
leave the path of personal purity.
l feel no assurance that this will
solve the problem. Without doubt
it would be we'll for all boys to
know that moral transgressions
are almost inevitable followed by
physical penalties. But do warn
ings ever keep any large number
of young people from yielding to
temptations? The students in
our medical colleges must know
much about the physical effects
of wrong-doing; but is the per-
centage of morality among them
noticeably higher than among the
students of other colleges or
courses?
Moreover, if we wait until a
boy is fifteen years of age, we have
waited too long. The boys and
girls in our public schools are in
danger, many of them morally
contaminated long before that.
Recent Investigations in the
schools of Chicago have brought
that more forcibly to mind. In
one of the most beautiful cities
of Massachusetts the parents and
teachers were forced, by the SER
iousness of the moral conditions
discovered among their children,
to come together in series of
meetings to consider what mea-
sures could be devised to meet
the gravity of the situation. And
the same condition exists all
over the United States.
Mothers, as a rule, know prac-
tically nothing about the moral
conditions in the public schools,
but the teachers could tell great
deal that would enlighten them
did they but dare.
We find, upon Investigation,
that in many schools, there is
what we call a ferment of impur-
ity at work among the children.
This results not only in impure
talk and suggestive writing, but
even goes SO far as to result in
what, among adults, we would de-
signate as immoral. acts. Let me
here, however, the fact
that these little ones who thus
transgress are not to be judged by
The same standard as those es-
tablished for the adult. It is not
their fault that they have fallen
into such an unfortunate condi-
lion. Their ignorance and their
innocence have made them easy
victims to the tinted suggestions
IF older companions; nor are
these leaders to be condemned
outright. They in turn, were con-
when still too young

which was thrust upon them and

men has left behind him a story similar
to the one in which she plays an uncon-

Mary's great man is President Taft,
and her little story gives complete pic
ture of one of the features of the Presi-
dents life that Washingtonians are
proud to know about-hls walks about
the city. 1t concerns the chief executive
of the greatest of all nations and gives a

covered in any other way.
