CHILDREN AND SPENDING
MONEY.

Easy money is no better for chill
dren than for adults. Earned money
is the money which carries with it a
blessing to all; and how to train chill
dren to be earners of money instead
of beggars of it is not readily thought
out by the average parents. A Mas
sachusetts mother, who has worked out
the problem, thus discloses her plan,
which a good one, for there is both
system and discipline in it. She says:
My oldest three sons receive the
whole sum of 10 cents every Saturday
night, TO do with, exactly as they
choose. The other three get 3 cents
for the same purpose. Then they have
to earn the rest that they want. One
good way they earn it is this: Every
quarter at school they bring home a
report of their school work A is ex-
cellent Is good, c fair. ID poor, and Z
failure. Daddy gives them 10 cents
for every A, cents for every b, moth
ing for c. Then if they have any
DIS they must pay Daddy cents, and
if any Els they must pay him 10 cents;
and you may believe, Eward, they work
faithfully for their money. Do you
like this plan? OF course, Dick is only
in the first grade and Buddie doesn't
go TO school yet, so they don't partioi-
pate in this scheme. Then Eugene
C1J) works after school in the grocery
store and Kenneth (12) has a paper
route. Ronald does nothing but read
and experiment with his wireless sta
ton, and Keith is my hired man and
gets a cent for every hod Of coal and
basket of wood he brings. l never
question them as to what they do with
it. only know they buy their own
playthings and presents for the fam
lily"
The value of such training as this
during juvenility cannot be questioned
The incentive and reward are made
sure and the system is one that will
tell through life. Doing something to
get money is business-ge getting some
thing for nothing oscillates between
beggary and fraud. This early order
in home affairs must make good bus
mess men and home managers.

A MANIFESTATION OF JEALOUSY

The leading explorer of Canada,
Captain Bernier, does not like to have
American explorers making geography
in the Arctic regions and he is trying
TO induce the parliament at Ottawa to
protest to the United States because
Commander Peary has been trying to
grab a lot Of islands and icebergs in
the North Pole country that belongs
to the Dominion. He complains that
Peary gave nemGs to islands on which
ne never set foot, and he appears to
fear that unless the Dominion govern
ment takes vigorous steps to prevent
il. the North Pole country will be list
ed as a territorial possession Of the
United States.
This is a very amusing movement on
the part Of Captain Bernier, since no
one in this country will think of taking
it seriously. The desolate regions of
the north may very truly be defined as
No Mans land-being Of no value to
any nation. The imaginary lines OF
the Canadian boundary may center
upon the North pole and the American
flag may fly on the point OF the
boundary without any infringement
upon the Dominion.
II Canada does not like the names
Commander Peary has given to the is
lands il can commission Captain Ber-
nier to give them new names. There
doesn't appear to be anything in the
Arctic regions worth having a conten-
ton over.

PUSSY WILLOW

had its origin in her kind thought. All
the girls referred to her for advice
and suggestion, and very rarely was
any jealousy or resentment shown
when Pansy was praised for the re-
suits She always disclaimed any such
flattery, saying that the other girls
did much more than she and deserved
the approval for good results more
than she did.
Needless to say, she was not lack
ing IN admirers of the opposite. sex.
Like the lassie who came through the
Rye" all the lads smiled at her, but
she was evidently most pleased with
the attentions of Harry Grinnell,
whom she had known from childhood.
He was of good parentage and ambi-
tious to try his fortune in the out
side world, but could take to the city
little except good character and a
clear head. Pussy and he had a fair
understanding of each others affec-
ton but he would bind her to no
promise until he saw his way clear
TO financial success, and her people
refused to accept any other arrange
ment. So they parted, good friends
and nothing more. "pll come back
when the pussies are in bloom and
claim my Pussy Willow said Harry,
cheerfully, and Pussy sent him on his
way with a fond smile and words of
encourageme
But seasons came and went, and
nothing was heard from Harry Grin
nell II was known that he went to
a distant western city, but there all
trace Of him was lost The death of
his parents, which occurred soon aft
CT his departure, severed the last ties
which bound him to his native place,
and he was forgotten by most of those
who knew him in boyhood.
But Pussy Willow recalled him with
every return of springtime. II she
felt neglected, she never told of it,
and with happy, contented smiles bus
led herself in caring for her parents
as time advanced, and endeared her
self to an ever-increasing circle of
nephews and nieces, who were sure
Aunt Prudence was the incest aunt
ever children knew.
They all knew her fondness for
pussy willows and searched out the
largest and earliest for her. But she
liked to get them for herself, and
often went with them to gather these
early treasures. Returning on one
such occasion, with an armful Of
treasure trove, whom should she see
approaching but her long-lost though
forgotten childhood friend.
Disregarding the surrounding group
Of wide-eyed children Harry Grinnell
gathered Pussy and her willows to-
gether in fond embrace, as he said
Il told you I'd come when the pussies
were in bloom. They tell me at the
| house that my frequent letters have
gone astray. received none from you

MEN AND RELIGION FORWARD
MOVEMENT.

AS a cooperative moment for the
stimulation of communities along re-
ligious, moral and social lines, the
Men and Religion Forward movement
has never had a precedent. Its pur-
pose Is to produce conditions more
suggestive Of the brotherhood of man
to take the grind out Of daily labor
and to establish good fellowship be-
tween employer and employee. 1t is
designed TO make religion practical,
and TO have the principles of righteous
ness manifested in the directing of
work and in the doing of it.
Just for a moment think of 70 Amer
lean cities being interested in this
same work which is being done here
in Norwich and the campaign is to
80 forward until the close OF April.
The Conservation congress, winding
up the series Of conventions of the
Men and Religion movement, is to be
held in New York April 10 to "a.
President Taft will head the list of
speakers and the congress itself will
terminate a three months institute
which has already started in New
York. A feature Of the congress will
he a parade, big enough, it is expected,
10 impress even New York.
Conventions just held. or to begin
at once, include Baltimore, Indianapo-
lis. Pittsburg. Newark, Birmingham
Toledo, Charleston and Washington,
These are in the main division, with
members Of the general teams as
speakers
Williamsport and some other cities
Of It's size are drafting into service
their own experts and, copying the
general plan. are having conventions
the equal Of any in relative size and
interest
Good reports come from all the cities
and IN many places the expectations
Of the promoters Of the work have
been surpassed in what may be rated
as permanent effect.
Let the good work go on

HOW GREED WAS CHECKED.

1t took the action of two govern
ments to check the greed which would
have destroyed the beauty and ma
jesty Of Niagara Falls. By a treaty
between the United States and Great
Britain, which forbids the further con-
verting of the falls into industrial
power after the LIST of March, 1872,
the Falls will remain unimpaired for
years to come Under this new treaty
it will not be possible to draw off water
for commercial purposes sufficient to
impair the splendor of the great cata-
ract to any visible eXtentA Niagara
can be harnessed and made to do use
full work. but it is not TO be despoiled.
This treaty is the result of the in
tense agitation carried on for several
years in the past decade by the lovers
of natural scenery to prevent the de-
struction of the finest waterfall on the
American continent by engineers who
showed a yandaI-like spirit in their
work there.
This is an achievement which is
creditable to the people of both coun-
tries

THE TESTIMONY OF A JUDGE.

Judge Fawcett Of Brooklyn, n. Y,
recently put forth from the bench a
declaration worthy the consideration
Of youth and parents. A l9-yesr-old
boy, charged with burglary, was by
the judge sentenced to prison, and
in the performance Of his duty he took
occasion to say:
Il have seen your friends who
wished to speak to me about you. and
I find that all attempts to have you
20 10 Sunday school have failed. In
the I'VE years I have been sitting on
this bench / have had 300 boys be-
fore me for sentence, and not one OF
hem was an attendant Of a Sunday
school. Had you gone there ! am sure
YOU would not be before me today
As an evidence Of the value Of the
work being done in the Sunday schools
OF the land this is worth sending
broadcast: and as an assurance to
faithful self sacrificing workers in
these schools Of work well done and
fruitful. it is OF inestimable value.
Norwi ch mas good Sunday schools,
and they deserve to be more largely
attended.
The Ohio Journal is right when it
says:
There are three things in a boys
education that we would have pre-
ferred beyond anything else. They are
his reverence for sacred things, his I'M
selfishness and the strengthening Of
his will power. These things are Of
greater moment than all the knowl-
edge Of the textbooks. They belong
to the educo part Of education-the
unfolding part, the soul-expanding
part. which is the essential fact in
education. An educator who'doesn't
know this, who doesn't practice it,
ought 10 give I'D the business"
