WHAT TO Give HIM FOR
4 CHRISTMAS GIFT
Useful Offerings That Every Man
Is Sure to Appreciate.

A man Is only a man after all. and
he likes useful gifts. no matter who
he may be. II you are wealthy or If
your income is quite moderate the fol.
lowing gift suggestions may be adopt
ed, as they are things that may cost
only little or may be quite expensive:
1t is rather curious that woman's one
idea Of a gift to man is q cravat.
for it is the one thing that a man de-
tests having selected for him. But
man can nearly always wager that
woman will get him cravat Of a color
that is not becoming to him or one
that is too absurd to wear. And yet
hundreds Of thousands of women insist
upon giving cravats for Yuletide gifts!
If you are overpowered by this idea
please have little mercy on mankind
and select black and white cravats,
for they are smart and are becoming
to every man. Silk knitted ties are
again in vogue, especially those that
are three to four inches WIDE Ties of
heavy faconne silks are also Endorsed
by London.

Plum pudding and mince pie are mi

Christmas day, and strangely enough
the former was long ago accepted as
typical Of the riches and spices brought

And death within the pot.

Planting of forest tree seedlings. "a
Clear cutting and burning to rid the
woods of noneysuckle and TO secure

Exchange To Discuss Schools

The Calvert Exchange of the Farmers
Civil and Business Association will hold
their next open meeting, Saturday, l p.
m, April 5, 1913.
j. E. Crothers, Chairman of the School
Committee, takes a strong stand for a
change in rural schools. He says:
THE school should be a community
center, with an assembly room, where
could be held lectures, farmers meet
ings, lyceum debates, and the old time
spelling bee; place where the parents
could meet once or twice a month tt
discuss the questions of the day. Older
people need entertainment and amuse-
ment, and If we wish to keep our boys
and girls on the farm, we must provide
for their entertainment, most of which
they can furnish for themselves and their
parents, If a suitable place could be OBJ
tanned"
He further contends that IN the con-
sti uction of the buildings and arrange
ment of curriculum, and in the admins
tration of the schools, simplicity should
be taken as the keynote, and common
sense as the watchword. No teacher in
the rural school should have more than
fifteen pupils, and better sanitary con-
dt.ons should prevail"
