Old Pop Time is a mighty formid-
able foe, but records show that many
athletes, in many different divisions,
have given him some long and herce
tussles before the referee finally
counted them out. while others. after
nearly a score OF years in active serv-
ice, are still waging a merry little
battle against their unbeatable enemy.
There Is no diyision in athletics
that uses up man vitality SO much,
none that makes a young man age so
fast. none that is 80 strenuous as
pugilism. 1t calls for everything there
is in a man every moment he is in
battle, and practically every battle
robs him of d little more of his nat
ural strength, and leaves him just a
little easier for Pop Time to con-
quer.

nearing his fifty-second milestone,

Educational
CONTROL

The power of controlling others easily is a gift of nature, yet it may be improved by observing a few essentials. A sympathetic knowledge of child nature and the disposition to be of service wins the child's confidence. Ability to do without faltering what needs to be done at once wins the child's respect. Arous- ing his interest in the work to be done secures his cooperation.
 The power to help the child at profitable work without relapses into aimlessness or idleness makes constant attention to discipline unnecessary. The school that needs constant effort to control is in diseased con dition. Real control can be established only by getting all into right relations with the school. so that work fully occupies all. It may be necessary to stop all attempts at school work until the disease is cured. Bat if the whole time has to be given to this, the school is a failure. The teachers care should be to establish a condi- tion of health, and to enjoy the fruits thereof. cooperation of |all concerned in securing the realization of the purposes of the school.

 That glanders vaccine is not effective in rendering horses immune from this dangerous disease is the conclusion reached by specialists of the Bureau of Animal Industry as a result of extensive experiments with horses and other animals.
 In the experiments IF horses were used. These were stabbed under such conditions that vaccinated and unvaccinated horses could be brought into con- tact with a good discharging case of glanders.
 The results obtained by these investigations appear to be suffi- cient to demonstrate the unsatis- factory results of this method of immunization. Of the 13 immunized animals, 9 contracted the disease from natural exposure, which is a large proportion when 1t is con- |sidered that all animals were aged and kept most of the time during the exposure out of doors. Of the 4 remaining immunized horses, 1 died of impaction after the second vaccination, while the other 3 animals were killed August 20, 1913, in order to ascertain by post-mortem exami- nation the possibility of glanders existing in these animals which had given positive serum reaction but which had returned to nor- maj.
