address by DR.. D. P. Macmillan on
some important factors preventing
the normal growth and development
of pupils in school life" DR.. MacMil-
Ian, who is directory of the department
OF child labor of the Chicago public
schools, spoke in part as follows:
There are many children who are
hygienically handicapped from the be-
ginning OF life. First, the chain Of
heritage is weakened in some links,
and, of course, this goes back to I'M
hygienic conditions and influences.
Children come into the world with
incipient nervous disorders, which en-
vironmental factors early transform
into oyerstimulated or Understandable
ed nervous systems. Then, again. dis
eases in early years are found to be

IN
LANAR COUNTY
BLACK EYE PEAS GROWN BY
FARMERS WILL BE SOLD
BY LOCAL WHOLESALERS.

b. A Talbert, principal OF the La
mar county agricultural high school,
was in Hattiesburg Friday making ar
engagements to handle through Hat
tiesburg wholesale grocers upwards of
400 bushels Of black-eye peas grown
by the members OF the farmers CO.
operative club of Lamar county.
Mr.. Talbert says there is heard a
great deal about cooperation among
the small farmers in this section of
the Union. He has lnaugurated a CO.
operative movement among the farm
ers of Lamar and hopes, through a CO.
operative farmers club to obtain great
improvement in methods within a few
years. "If cooperation is a good
thing why wait. until every farmer can
be enlisted or until a great organiza-
tion can be effected before beginning?"
asks Mr. Talbert. His idea of the
way to do a thing is to do it. II
all farmers will not cooperate and
some will, let those who will, coop
crate, and results will follow.
In keeping with this idea it is stated
as fact that the greatest cooperative
organization in the world started in
England less than sixty years ago.
when % poor weavers who found the
cost of living advancing so rapidly
they were unable to support their
growing families, decided they would
start cooperative grocery store and
each subscribed and paid for one
share OF the capital stock rated at one
pound sterling, affordlng the organiza.
ton a starting capital of twenty-eight
pounds. equal to about $40 of Amerl-
can money. The price of a share Of
this stock has never increased above
one pound sterling but the capital has
grown to over $4,000, 900 and the Co
operative society does an annual vol
uDe of business equal to 100000, 900,
all accomplished through cooperation
and starting with sum equal to about
one sixth the present value OF the
Lamar county farmers 400 bushels Of
black-eye peas.

DIVE KEEPER CONVICTED IN CITY
COURT is THEN ARRESTED
BY CONSTABLE.

Several days ago the police found
five quart bottles OF whiskey secreted
In the dance hall section of the How
ell three-story building on Mobile
street, and in addition to confiscation
of the the liquor, affidavit was made
against Will Iverson, the negro sue
cessor to Noah Shackeford who form
erly made the place noted as a negro
dive and blind tiger. The case against
| Iverson was heard by the mayor this
morning who rendered judgment of
guilty and levied a fine of $40 and cost.
j. e. Davis, attorney for Iyerson at
once gave notice of an appeal and
furnished the required appeal bond
signed by himself and d. w. Draughn.
Immediately upon the release of
Iverson by the city he was arrested
by Constable Cooper on a charge of
liquor violation filed in Justice Fair
ley's court.
The liquor alleged to belong to
Iverson is said by the officers to be
literally mixed with artesian water.
The case of Will Johnson, a negro
man charged before the mayor with
petit larceny, when heard this morn
ing was dismissed and transferred to
a magistrates court where he will be
tried on felony charge, it being ties
titled to before the mayor that on the
night of June /, 1913, Johnson way
laid and held up Oscar Tyler, from
whom he took a coat, hat and a
small sum of money. Johnson has
since then been a fugitive though the

IIuerta and the establishment of le-
gally constituted administration in the
southern republic.
That the United States is backed by
worldwide sentiment in its peace
policy is conceded in diplomatic circles
here. Tangible evidence of the atti-
tude of France came Sunday in the
news dispatches from faris, stating
it was practically certain President
Poincare and Foreign Minister Pichon
would not receive Francisco de la
Barra, appointed minister to France
by Provisional President Huerta, and
now en- route to his post.
His status, it was pointed out in the
advices from Paris, was similar to that
of Gen. Felix Diaz, special ambassador
to Japan from the Huerta administra-
| ton. who, it was announced in Toxic,
would not be welcomed except as an
individual.
Great Britain's statement recently,
that the recognition OF Huerta had
been provisional, pending an election,
taken together with expressions from
France and Japan, all of whom have
recognized Huerta formally, are the
only public manifestations of sym

States in opposing the Huerta regime
to yield to the American suggestions
for peace.
Assurances that Latin America
stands by President Wilson have beer
received here informally. This haC
been expected, however, as the inter
ests of Central and South American
countries, where volatility of govern
ment has prevailed throughout mill
taIy relationships, are admittedly il
line with the attitude taken by thc
United States in the present situation
While President Wilson has complet
ed his message, which will embrace
not only summary of the proposals
made by John Lind and the reply Of
the Huerta government, but also q
statement of the policy to be forward
ed by the United States, administra
| ton officials were reticent to discuss
what course would be pursued. They
pointed significantly, however, to the
Latin American statement issued by
President Wilson during the first fort
night of his administration, and de
clared it would be the basis of what he
would have to say Tuesday.
Secretary Bryan had brief confer
ence with President Wilson during
yesterday, discussing the Mexican sit

State Laundrymen Name Heads.

The annual convention of the Wis
consin Laundrymel's association at
the Republican house, Milwaukee, end
ed, and the members were entertained
at a theater party. The members OF
the association took an automobile
ride, visiting and inspecting all the
principal laundries in the city.
William Fitch, National Laundry
mems association, addressed the con-
vention. He told of the work being
done by the national association. II.
G. Emerson spoke on matters affect
ing the laundry business which are
now pending before the legislature.
He expressed himself in favor of the
pure fabric bill He read the mini
mum wage bill and asked all members
to advise the legislators of their re-
spective districts to oppose the bill.
The following officers were elected
for the ensuing year:
President, Stephen Gesell, Milwau-
kee; first vice-president, Edward Irm-
niger, Green Bay; second vice-presi-
dent, John G. Williams, Racine; sec
retary-treasurer Charles Durnin, Mil
waukee; sergeant-at-arms, e. Ray
mo1ld, Edgerton; directors, I'll. e. Re-
mer, Kenosha; H. G. Mcdonald, Supe-
rior; Ben Playwright, Fond du Lac.
Milwaukee was again chosen as the
place for the annual convention.
"The laundries of Milwaukee pay
their women workers a living wage,
said Mr.. Emerson, in his address to
the convention.
''While laundrymen are in favor of
paying a living wage, and do pay it,
we are opposed TO tho living wage
bill now before the state assembly.
We employ no girls, only women, and
the wages range from $3.50 to SIS a
week.
Suppose living wage commission
fixes the minimum wage of our help
at nine dollars. Then we will be COM
PEELED to do one OF two things; either
meet the increase by charging the
public more for our work, or reduce
the wages of the women who arO re-
ceiving the maximum wage"

half of one. The head of the house divides the
egg gives half to the caller, and eats with him
the other part. The custom has such hold on
the people that the mobiles, even when living far
away from the fatherland observe it. Many
years ago Prince Czartoryski was in residence in
Paris, when he held the usual reception on Easter
Monday, receiving each guest at the door of his
salon, and dividing the egg in traditional style
with each visitor, who ate it conscientiously.
In America, with it's population drawn from all
sections of the globe many Easter observances
distinctive of the various countries have been re-
tanned by the immigrants and their descendants.
So decidedly has Easter Sunday come to be
thought of in the United States the great show
day Of the year that the average person longer
regards it in it's most inspiring light-the crown
ing feast day of the Christian year Yet it's re-
lgious significance still lives and while the siren
uous money seekers of the present day seem to
have lost sight of any save its worldly interest
the spirit of worship is by no means thing OF
the past and nowhere is it actively alive
than in the upto-date church Of a great city.
Music is the chief feature of the usual service,
and no pains or money is spared to make it a
noteworthy event.
Easter egg rolling on the White House grounds
in Washington has become affair of interna-
tonal note. The children gather in crowds out
side the tall iron fence that incoses the grounds
and when the gates are thrown open at exactly
9 a. m. they flock in pell-mell and distribute
themselves in squads over the hillocks. No time
is lost, the sport beginning at once and soon it
is in fast and furious progress, the greensward
speckled with eggs and rainbow hues All the
children wear their best clothes which are
destined to be sadly mussed and more or less
torn before the day is over, yet a thoroughly
democratic spirit prevails, the youngsters being
of all classes.
To the eye of the casual observer the egg play
is somewhat devoid of meaning, but study Of it
shows that it is both varied and interesting.
Some of the children make races with their eggs
starting them simultaneously from the top of a
hfllock, with the understanding that the one to
reach the bottom first is the winner. If it Is "for
fair the egg of the loser passes into the pos
session of the successful contestant. Another
way is to roll egg down hill, to be received
at the bottom on the point of second egg if the
thlng is properly DONE and failure or success in
this object gives rise to much merriment Or
again, two children may roll their eggs toward
each other on fiat piece of ground and when
they have met the one cracked is lost
In no other land does the Easter egg so splen
dldly symbolic democracy as in America

Report on State sudue&.

Report on State Euduet.
There is soon to be issued by the
state board of public affairs a compre-
hensive work upon 1.-THE Budget" pre-
pared for the board by S. Gale Lowrie.
r having fallen to the board of pub
lie affairs to prepare or suggest a
budgetary system for the state, the
first thing necessary was to get sur
vey of the field to learn what to avoid
as well as what to adopt. This survey
Mr.. Lowrie's compilation furnishes in
a most complete form. Not only will
it prove invaluable to the board In its
efforts to establish a comprehensive
and economical system of supervising
and controlling the states fiscal sys-
tenn, but it will be of interest and
value to every intelligent citizen who
would understand the problems which
enter into the administration of public
affairs under Democratic form OF
government. A proper fiscal system
therefore is fundamental in every suCs
cessful government. The first chap
ter is devoted to THE Preparation az
the Estimates and the Vote on the
Budget" the second to 1.-THE Continu-
ing Appropriations; the third to "The
Relation of the Executive to the Bud
get;" the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh,
eighth and ninth chapters to bud
getary procedure in other countries !;
the tenth chapter to "Budgetary Pro
cedure in Congress-" and the eleventh
and last chapter to 1.-THE Budgets OF
American States.''
If an increasing number OF instru-
mentalities to carry on the work of
government is inevitable. it follows
that increasing care to avoid confu.
sion or overlapping of the work OF
these is necessary. This will be one
of the functions of a budgetary sys-
tenn in state affairs, as this volume on
the budget clearly shows.

the rule became effective, whereas, be-
fore, about 10000 bottles year found
their way to the dumps, resulting in a
