THE ELEcTeRAL COLLEGE.

The elimination of useless and In- necessary legislation or that which has long since served the purpose for which it was enacted is in the interest of overcoming much deadwoed and in behalf of efficiency. It is along this line which Governor Baldwin is work Ing when he recommends the abolish ing of the electoral college. an insti- tuition which when started was for the purpose of selecting the president of the country, but which, since party nominations have come to be the prae- tice, has been a needless function.
 In reference to the suggestion of Governor Baldwin, The New York Commercial says:
 FThe abolition of the electoral col Iege, while it will make no practical difference in result, as no eiector des- fgRated to certify the voice of his state would ever dare do otherwise than the vote had directed weuId sim ply be the removal of an absurdity from the Constitution. Every example CT g tendency to cut out useless stat Hfes from the body of law is to he encouraged, and such a case in the Higher domain of constitutional law would doubtless foster this reforming tendency. The mass of the people do not know or care much about such tnIngs, as long as the result is achieved It is only the more inteIli- gent and thoughtful members of the community whose minds are open to the ridiculous and embarrassing en- eysment of law whieh aeeemplishes neth1ng either positiv@or negative''

The candle shades are covered in

If YOU are planning games for after

out Of old-tme amusements of

TO those of different ages. Or have a
contest TO see who can string the
longest chain of cranberries within
a stated time.
Another clever way to decorate a
table is TO have a center-piece Of
wheat standing in the center Of the
table. Around the wheat could be
scattered grains of corn. little papier
mache turkeys could be placed as if
they were eating the corn.
Spinning wheels cut out Of card

That the method cannot be generally
applied TO the American child was

largely adapted TO the sub-normal

are super-nOrmal. The individual in
