Foreigners and Our yellow Press.

The naser element Of the New York
press has precisely the lame baneful
influence in South America that il has
in Europe. writes J. a. Hammerton, in
Harper's Weekly. The evil reach OF
yellow Journalism is wider than many
suppose. Just as the London Daily
Telegraph regales its readers on the
essence Of New York's sensational
press, which gives the most distorted
view Of American life. SO co the Span
ish American journals seize on the
spiclest contents OF these prints, turn
them into Spanish, reproduce their i'll
Illustrations and leave their readers
with the idea that the North Amer
leans pass their lives in social crimes,
follies and immoralities. La Razon, Of
Buenos Aires, La Razon and el Dia, Of
Montevideo, Ell Diario 1Iustrado, OF
Santiago, ali ably edited newspapers,
are particularly noted for the use they
make OF American material of this
kind. No blame can attach to them +;
the canker has it's roots in New York.

HOME CREDITS AS APPLIED IN
POLK APPROVED.
Much Interest Is Aroused Among
Children, and Intelligent and Will
ing Service is the Result.

That the home credit system ha
succeeded in bringing about a close
relationship between the schools ant
homes of Polk county and an interes
in the industries of the farm hereto
fore unparalleled is shown by attend
ance records and statistics compiled
for some of the rural schools wher,
the plan has been in operation. I'm
der the rules of the system, credit is
given at school for work done at home
outside of school hours, including the
walking of long distances to schoo
and regular attendance. Credit is civ.
en- for washing dishes, milking cows
doing chores, sleeping with windows
open and proper care of body. The
result has been healthier appearance
by the pupils. The parents also de-
clare that more work was done at
home during the term and that the
child's attitude toward the common
everyday duties of farm life are
changed, with the realization by the
children that the performance of all
duties is a real part of their educa-
tion.
A typical home credit school is that
at Fairview, in South Polk county.
The pupils took up the work in the
fall of 1912 and were successful
throughout the term in adhering to
the rules. The children thus pleased
their parents, who demanded that the
system be employed during the next
term. The plan has been changed
from time to time. The pupils must
earn 800 credits before taking a holi-
day instead of 6O0 The number of
minute credits for milking cows was
increased from five to Is for each
COW and reasonable amount of cred
1t was allowed for all work not named
in the list of chores. Children living
over a mile and half from school
were allowed credit for the distance
they had to walk in proportion to the
Others and 5 per cent instead of 10
was added at the end of the wear on
their final averages. Two prizes were
offered by the district, So and So, re-
spectively. Children seldom took ad-
vantage Of the holiday for the 800
minute credit, as they were taught
that day lost meant the loss of
days work as well. Hardness on the
part of any pupil meant the loss of
so many credits already accumulated.
Without home credit work the term
IF l9l1-12 had record of 95 per cent
n attendance and 50 tardies. The
term closed with 90 per
,ent attendance and only eight tar
lies. Seven schools have successfully
ried the system, as follows: Eola,
3uena Vista, Suver, Polk Station,
'airview, Oak Point and Valley View.
others did some of the work. Through
he operation of valuable systems in
Folk county 4S schools became stand
rdized, completing the 16 require
nents and receiving a pennant.

REAL LIFE IN THE COUNTRY
Fact ls Shown by Mans Eagerness to
Escape From Congestion OF
the Crowded City.

Why Is 1t that railway magnates,
presidents OF banks and heads of great
enterprises who must perforce do
business in cities, almost all try to
have homes on farms In the country,
where they develop soils, plant crops
and breed animals? 1t is because there
is wearisome monotony in piled up
brick and stone. There Is confusion
in crowded streets and changing troll
ley cars and hot smoky railways
These things man has made, and they
are needful, but they are not life. much
as the farm boy may imagine them to
be.
Life is In the open country. Life is
In the growing grass, the waving fields
of wheat, the springing corn. Life is
in the trees and birds. life is in the
developing animals of the farm.
Any man who works with the land.
who feeds field and watches the re-
suit, gains a real fundamental know
ledge Of the underlying foundation on
which rests all our civilization 1t
makes him a sober man, a thoughtful
man, a reverent man, and il he expert
ments wisely hopeful optimist- Life
is where things are born and live and
grow. On the farm is real life.-Breed-

GIadstone's Domestic Rule.

Mr.. Gladstone once said that he
had solved the domestic problem in
this way: Whenever Mrs. Gladstone
insists l submit; an whenever 1 insist
she submits" He didn't say, how
ever, whether they took turns about
insisting and submitting. Marriage
is failure when one of the parties
