Has Assistant superintendents for
Each OF Boys and Girls Divisions
Women Teachers for Girls
and Men for boys.

An innovation and advanced idea In
sunday school management Is being car
red out at the First Methodist Sunday
school by T. r. sturgess, the general
superintendent. lie has not only done
away with men teachers for girls and
women teachers for boys. and abolished
mixed classes OF boys and girls but also
has gone 80 far as to seat members Of
the two sexes on opposite sides OF tins
room, with a man as under-superinten-
dent for boys, and woman in a similar
capacity for the girls.
'Wc have found BY experience that the
best results come from this system"
Superintendent says, I'm mixed classes
Of the younger ages we found that the
boys teased the girls. and then when they
got into their teens, the boys made eyes
at the girls. In both cases reducing thu
efficiency OF the Sunday school work.
I'VE have known OF but very few sue
cessfui classes OF any age where both
sexes were included in the membership.
There is only one tn our school. and that
is made UP Of elderly people. The scheme
OF having a person OF the opposite sex
teach a class OF youngsters does not get
the best results. for a woman never IL
able to appeal as strongly to a class OF
boys as a man Is, nor IL n man able to
appeal as strongly TO a class OF girls az

Brilliant Opening For

shadowing reputation of Amato. who.
though he also had never sung In De-
troit, was known by name at least to
everyone In the audience. The ar

brown walls, but rejoices In bright,
clean bun. and even the seats had
been washed and frightened for the
new season.
Miss Case proved her, mettle be-

high fever and spotted throat
which a physician pronounced due to
tonsilitis, and II was only by slipping
hot water and spraying the throat
with various and suhdry oils after
each song that Miss Case was able
to sing at ALL She conveyed the i'm
preston that she had never been in
better voice In all her little life of 26
years.
Amato had expected to give the
Philharmonic course tremendous
send-off. and his spirits, when he saw
many vacant chairs. were considerably
dampened. He seemed unable to shake

"Chanson de la Foret Sombre" went

their feelings were not relieved by

remained for Miss Case to stir the
first genuine enthusiasm by her aria,

SAVE THE PIECESl
1T WILL PAY YOU

Some wiseacres say--though they've
never proved it--that "a French fam
lily can live on what an American
house eeper throws away"
This may be no more true than half
true, but even SO II may be well for
the American housekeeper to pay
heed 70 the way they do things In
France. These are some OF the rules
followed by French cooks:
Never throw food away. no matter
how small the amount. Save II for
soup. Save also all drippings and
bones, all water In which vegetables
have been boiled and put aside for
the soup.
Add little barley or tapioca balls
soaked over night to the clear stock.
= little celery seed, a dash Of paprika.
salt and pepper and simmer, never
boil soup.
Sometimes you will want clear
soup. Take broth from the pot roast,
and Tor soup for the next day add
noodles. There are many ways to
cook these soups at little or no ,ex-
pense, but the best way Is to use
your ieftovers and experiment In com.
bining ingredients. and you will soon
be an expert at soup making.

Modern Huck Finn Puts
Clean Little Lads to Shame

Has boyville changed its gods?
Monday morning there came into
the juvenile court, one Huckleberry
Finn Of beloved memory, ragged.
dirty little chap whose feet were
bare and whose wind-tossed hair was
thrust In clumps through the holes OF
his hat and whose pockets bulged
with string and top, marbles. a sling
shot and horseshoe nail thrust
through cork and befeathered. and
last Of all, In an empty snuff box
sad and lethargic tree toad.
His real name was declared to be
Archie, but anyone would know that
he was the reincarnation OF Huckle-
berry Finn. Now you who know your
Mark Twain--and that means most
folk--will remember that Huckie-
his dirt, his bare feet at all times OF
the year. his ability TO swear, chew
tobacco and huri- dead cat with
deadly aim and to vast distances.
For these things he was hated by
parents and adored by boys and mis-
company was sought. Archie denied
the ability to hurl cats but confessed
the others. A whole row OF small
boys were waiting trial for various
offenses. They we're astonishing ely
clean little boys and most OF them
wore stif collar and neckties and
some even had their shoes shined.
Huckleberry-beg pardon. Archie
sat on the edge Of the bench and eyed
his neighbors. They also eyed him
and there was no homage In their
stare. There was supercilious con-
tempt, drawing away from the mud
and the bare feet and one youngster
even shivered when he saw the sad
tree toad.
A boy Of the long ago was curious
about n all. 90 ne asked questions OF
| the court that now werships strange
gods and this n what he found.
Two g tie clean little boys were
- ~ seoollnG from = store.
The Detroit times., 1914-10-27

Two were up for telling lies to
truancy officers and stealing from
their papa.
Two were up for smoking cigar
cites and using wicked language to
their teacher.
One was paroled from reform
school and had violated his word Of
honor.
Three were up for just plain wick.
edness, breaking windows and slap
ping little girls and similar deeds.
And Hu-that Is, Archie--was up
for breaking window, too. but he
had done Il by accident He didn't
lie and he didn't quail before the
court. He was noisy and rough and
swore and did other things because
he didn't know any better, but he
wasn't mean. And after looking over
the clean little boys and Archie one
was tempted to wonder
Oh well. The world wags on and
times change and a new order OF
things Is born. But II was pleasing
to know that Archie went home and
some Of the clean little boys with
their petty vices didn't.

From the standpoint OF artistry, 1t
was one Of the most successful pro-
grams ever given In Detroit.
Beautiful work at the piano gave
the program finish. Charles Gilbert
Spross is wonderful accompanist as
well as gifted writer of songs He
can make his piano sing with the
singer. He played two OF his own
songs for Miss Case. THAT Is the
