ranged by the principal in cooperation
with the domestic science teacher. A
cereal. a cup of warm cocoa ana q
piece of bread Will make a comfortable
breakfast for a child upon chilly
morning. In some schools an emer-
gency fund is used in this way. Ere
quently the means are supplied by vol
untary contributions upon the part OF
the teachers, or of some organization
which they have interested. Sometimes
the lack of breakfast is not due so
much to poverty as to carelessness Of
the mother.
The success with which the effort
to supply school lunches has been met
indicates how great the need is The
demand for bTea kfGst would be equally
great in many schools 1t is best for
the child to pay small sum If pos
sible. When a mother gives a child
five cents to buy something 20 eat at
a bakeShOp, in lieu of the breakfast
he should have at home, the school
can supply food better suited to his
health for the same money. This is
being done in a number of cities,
usually under the direction of some
but the school always guarantees the
quality of the food thus making it an
important health movement
The menu furnished for the school
lunch varies with the nationality or
the children for whom it is supplied.
The menu for a school in New York,
having over 1000 Jewish children in
attendance, is supervised by a Rabbi
having a kosher cook to serve it The
children of an italian neighbOrhOOd
at first refused to eat such strange
food as sandwiches, bean soup, rice
pudding, milk and cocoa instead Of the
rich greasy soups of their own land
Little by little the teachers made them
understand how much more whole

at home An accurate table of weights
kept for three months in New Ork
school last year gave the average gain

at ten and a half pounds against three

The SearckEght
UNNECESSARY FATIGUE OF
WORKERS.


WORKERS.
When the world first began to hear
much Of scientific shop management
and stop wa tch efficiency the emphasis
was placed strongly on the fact that
by eliminating lost or waste motions
a workman could do more work, de-
liver more of a finished product than
without the aid Of the scientists to
tell him how to work Undoubtedly
many humanitarians reconed from
what seemed to be a method Of max
ing a man into a mere machine, even
if that were done in the interest of the
modern God Of Efficiencv-'
Now come the scientific managers
with apparatus and argument to prove
that fatigue Of the worker in the in
oCstrial plant is, in the long run. more
dangerous to the workers and to 50
ciety than the Industrial accidents
which are so much deplored.

bltion Of devices for the elimination
OF unnecessary fatigue has been opened
by Frank B. Gilbreth. an efficiency ex-
pert OF Providence, r. T. His system
has been based upon motion studies
made WIKI the aid of the moving pic
ture camera and while he insists upon
such conVenieaces as seats. safety de-
wees, s2n1Ury conVeniences and the
like, he depends for the greater part
OF his fatigue prevention upon train
ing the workers to avoid useless mo-
llon and therefore waste of muscular
effort involving useless fatigue

Football Rules
BY GEORGE FITCH.
Author of AT Good Old Siwash.s

4 BOUT this time OF the wear the
n national football commission looks
carefully over the remnants of
the less durable players who have in
( dulGed IN our great autumn pastime to
excess and tries to think of new set of
rules aimed directly at the prosperity of
the cOrOners, with whom this country
abounds.
While most of the eminent shin vir-
tuosos who participated in the various
gridirOn pleasantries this fall emerged
comparatively intact, some few of them
have not been entirely collected as yet
and there Is great need of reducing the
ballistic power of the 1S9 pound half
back. while at the same time care must
be taken to avoid squeezing the thrIIs
and gate receipts out of the game.
This can be accomplished II the COM
mission VIII only borrow the experiences
CT other exact sciences and exercise a
wide c0mmOnsense in its deliberations.
One of the most serious features of
the present game Is the number of
sprained ankles and knees sustained.
While this cannot be entirely eliminated
the number can be cut 80 percent by
using only one legged players.
collisions between men who carry
the ball and members of the opposing
line are often attended with frightful
results. The semaphore system would
obviate this. By tile adoption of an
ordinary train rule forbidding a player
to enter a block until the player ahead
has lett 1t the mortality would be cut
down IS percent.
Interference Is also the cause of many
accidents. Interference according to all
Wall street authorities IS entirely m-
warranted and unwise, and a skilful
use of the common or temporary in
junction VIII eliminate it.
Many football players are sadly
marred bv the reckless practice of walk
ing over the faces of the opposition with

Dear Miss Fairfax:

about it? Embarrassed.

For three years you have taken up
this girls time; for three years you
have made her believe that you were
in love with her and now Just because
her cousin is new, you are ready TO
break the other girls heart
A fine fellow you are, 10 be sure.
So you think the cousin knows you
are in love with her?
Why don't you tell the truth for
once2 You know she knows it. for you
have done everything you could to
make her know it. Be honest now for
a few minutes and admit it.
Every time you've had a chance.
