These in charge of children who find
them persistently bad, should first de-

parent or teacher, rather than the child.
But even DR.. Montessori comedies that
there are cases where All abnormality

Interest in naval circles centers in
the mounts now being completed Tor
the triple turrets of the Oklahoma. The

says the report, will be equipped with
the same type of triple-gun mount as
was adopted for the triple turrets Of the
Oklahoma and Nevada.
The scarcity of torpedoes on hand for
use of the navy, which, year ago, was
causing the department considerable an
Xiety. has been relieved somewhat, ac-
cording to the report, although Admiral
Twining is of the opinion that the sit

Regarding the operation Of the eight

on Government work are prohibited
from working their employees longer
