sorbing an education of the higher
sort. But as some of her unreason-
ableness is universal, her letters
have suggested to me little conduct
or etiquette talk to the mothers of
other school girls.
What are the faults of my little
second cousin Ray? She has doubt
wholesome girl is without faults
but they are all of a sort that ac-
companies uniformed youth. Ray is
only IT, as she told '.er foolish mother
and SO she cannot be expected to
think too much of the pretty man
ners which pave the way for a good
marriage. Her mind is exceptionally
brilliant, but serious studies are hard
for any 17-year old, and so, with an
animation always on the carpet and
with the question of class rivalries
to be considered, of course she is ir-
r1table when her studies are inter
rupted. And when they are all over
for the season, her overworked, I'M
developed young Dody cries for the
outdoor exercise which are her
rightful portion.
In short, to my mind-and 1 have
watched her carefully-Ray is the
usual sound, overgrown girl, with her
budding nature baking at the artt-
localities of manner which come later
on as matter of course. She is the
usual dear, poor, unfinished woman.
to whom the mere mention of a BUSH
ness or profession would be as much
of horror as that of marriage-the
darling always too-big-for-her-clot
lassie, who needs only to eat, sleep
and play between bouts of hard
study.
In fact, you can see with half an
eye that when her nature and mind
catch up with her length of limb

talk of the bitter, hard world or of
husbands? And what is a long skirt
but another name for one of society's
young body may be only z still-a
gIeesome, kittenish thing that only
finds fun in the red worsted ball
when the hard studies are over.
All this is as il should be in a
normal girl of II. She becomes a
woman quickly enough, heaven
knows, and instead of fostering an
early maturity of mind and manner,
mothers should take pains to keer
their daughters as simple and child
ish as possible.
But then this little talk Is only
for the too-ambitious mother-she
who wants the daughter of II or less
to grow up too quickly merely be-
cause skirts have been made long
enough to hide long legs. With the
other mother-she who keeps the
tall girls dresses so short that she
is ashamed to be looked at and who
babies the big hobbledehoy of girl
before Tom, Dick and Harry would
take quite a different tack.
AS a last word, let me turn again
to my cousin and her trio of COM
planning letters. do you think l
am too exacting, cousin, too ambi-
tious? You know Rays heart is in
the right place-a brave. deep, true
heart
All, Caroline, you will break my
own. AS if that were not all-for
the manners of a true lady have their
roots in the heart.

and long skirts she will be quite a
splendid woman. Meanwhile. she
must grow-and study.
Many a mother, as 1 have indicat-
ed and have reason to know, errs in
expecting too much grace of manner
in a growing school girl, and to them
will give the same advice that /
sent to my cousin Caroline.
Remember how. cruel and unnat
ural and unreasonable some of your
own beloved mothers exactions SEEM
ed long ago; and don't forget for q
moment what an unpruned Dough
you were yourself at that age. Give
nature a chance first, then study and
look out for the small trimmings of
manner. They are easy enough to
acquire when girl has fully ma
tured, If she is entirely occupied with
forming bones and gray matter be-
fore then; for, after all, manners are
only the ribbons that tie the bou-
quet, and not the perfume that comes
from the heart of the bud. To be
taught how to go in and out of a
room is certainly an important part
of a well-brought-up girls education,
but it is far more sacred to keep her
body in health and her mind I'M
touched of the subjects and prob
lens unsuited to her years.
Business, like marritge, is a sub
jeet to deep for the mind struggling
with Greek and mathematics SUBJ
ject too cruel for a growing girl who
up to now has been shielded from
every wind, and one calculated to
give her only terrors and hatred for
the life which seems likely to be her
portion. Give her chance, dear,
foolish mother, and when the time
comes, lol she will walk forth with
the wings of her soul wide and take
up her destiny at the right psycholog-
zeal moment.
Give her all the undisturbed time
she needs now for study and rejoice
that though she is II and wears
long skirts, she still has the heart of
child. Then, what is II after all
what save bundle of long legs
and thin arms and big sweet eyes,

LUNCHEON
BY ETHEL ANGERT.

tn lie luncheon hour is d favorlte
time for the gathering t4gether
of feminine friends in lOcali-
ties where the men OF the family do
not return home for the midday
meal. Hence lunch clubs of various
kinds are popular among women.
Inc poverty luncheon is especially
appropriate to the present time, when
the perplexed housekeeper sees the
prices of food soaring ever higher
and higher. Such a one often asks
herself the question, How can l give
my family healthful yet varied bill
of fare without spending an undue
proportion of our income on the ia
BILE?
We all want palatable and whole
some food, yet it does not seem either
wise or right to allow the bills of the
butcher and the baker to absorb al
most all the available family cash.
The problem is too knotty for any
one woman to solve unaided- Hence
some good housewives band them
selves together in order to compare
experiences and thus work out the
best results. Six or eight is a good
number for a lunch club and the
meetings may be held once a week
course, depend on the amount of
time and service at the command 2f
the members of the club. For women
who do all their own work it might
be too fatiguing to entertain more
than six persons, since we must never
forget the rather prosaic aftermath
the washing up of the dishes.
Each hostess keeps a careful &C
count Of the amount used of each
article and of the price. Then she
writes out-or, better still, mani
folds on the typewriter-a bill Of
fare for each guest. Beneath every
article she puts the quantity and
price of each ingredient.

THE YOUNG GIRb
An Article Of Good Counsel For
The Mother
BY LUCILLE DAUDET.

MM Y cousin Caroline writes to tell
IVA me, between some gentle ex-
press1ons of fondness for my
sen that she does not know what she
as going Ito do about Ray. During
the winter there she was with her
nose eternally in school books, grum-
py If you asked her to dust a ROOM
ana d1ng-donging always that she
would miss her examination. Now,
up at the lake, she runs wild like a
holden, showing a preference for
rough games and wanting straw rides
and boat trips forever Ray was
certainly an unsatisfactory daughter
when it came to the point of consid-
ering how soon she would be a wom-
an grown.

and how 1 wanted to box her ears
then!-"she can't be made to see

make a good marriage. She only

is too rough and rude to take up a
profession or business, she says quite
distractedly, Heavens, do you expect
me to make my living?'
''It will be worst when she goes to
school again." ended my foolish
cousin dolefully, "for then everything
will be sacrificed for her inordinate
ambition What nonsense education

SOUTH To COMBAT
NEW FREIGHT RATES
DIFFERENCE WILL BE HELD TO
MORROW WITH RAILROAD
COMMISSIONS.

Atlanta, June LIN order TO secure
suspension of new freight classifi-
cation effecting every commodity
shipped in the ten states compass
ing the southern territory, confer
ence will be held in the capitol here
Monday, with representatives from
the railroad commissions of Georgia,
Alabama, FloriGa, North Carolina and
Virginia present. Besides cooperation
will come from Mississippi, South
Carolina and Tennessee. Keneuckv
and Louisiana are the only two fail
ing 70 respond to Chairman Gamblers
kilograms, calling the conference. In
addition, trade bodies of Macon. At
lanta, Savannah, Columbus, Rome,
A-9tny, Ashburn and Vienna will join
in. All other trades bodies in the
state have been invited.
Notice of a new southern classifi-
cation, No. 80, was received only a
few weeks ago. Superficial examina-
lions have revealed increases in some
700 articles, including carload mini
\ NUNS with 327 reductions, offset by
| change in carload weights. The roads
worked three years making the clas-
| sifcations and gave shippers thirty
days to accept them The new clas-
siticatiOns go into effect June II.
and unless the petition for suspension
is filed in Washington by June 6. they
can't be stopped. Similar changes
in western territory were suspended
six months through the efforts o>
western commissions.
1t was estimated that changes
there would increase freight rates
in that territory $3O,OOO,OOO annual
ly, and it is believed that No. 80
would so effect southern territory.
The change affects hundreds of
thousands of articles, and it is i'm
possible to tell what it means until
this is fully examined. The meet
ing will be to act on a movement to
secure suspension, then cooperate in
the expense Of employing experts to
work the classification out.
The conference is of utmost impor-
lance to shippers of the entire South.
