LAWS RELA TING TO

Measures Enacted in United States,
Denmark and New Zealand.

Laws relating to Mothers Pen
sions in the Until States, Denmark,
and New ZealandIis the tile of
publication just iaued by the chill:
dren's bureau of he department of
labor.
Miss Julia C. Latrop, chief of the
bureau. in her lett<s transmitting the
bulletin to SecretaF Wilson, calls at
tention to the raIl development of
this new type of ldslation. Last year
more than half ofthe state legisla-
lures in session ha under consldera-
ton bills providinfor the support of
dependent childre in their own
homes. Twenty-oh states now have
in operation laws providing aid to
mothers in varyini sums and under
varying conditions. The earliest of
these laws was scored in 1911.
"Thus it will be Gen. says Miss
Lathrop, "that in to years there has
come into existent in states en-
bracing half the ppulation of the
country type of legislation whose
purpose is admitted uniform, name
", to secure for yong children home
life and the person care of a good
mother. No one barrels with this
purpose. On the 9th hand, the opin-
ions of experts on ,ocial betterment
do not agree as to t wisdom of try
ing to secure this ppose through So
called pension legislation. as will be
seen by an examinaon of the discus
sions referred to i'm he photography.

The methods and shdards prescrlb-
ed in the different Eates vary. 1t is
impossible that all sbuld prove equal
ly valuable in servi their common
purpose. At the pr&nt time it is i'm
practicable for this ureau to under
take any field stud3of the operation
of these laws (even Pre- it not prema-

and of its various brings, it is be-
lieyed that the folding compilation

CJLTIyATING THE DISPOSITION.
Monroe News-Star9

Some people seem to be chronic
rrouches. Nothing suits them and
everything is going wrong. This is
most unfortunate disposition that
should not be cultivated. Other peo-
pie have the happy faculty or rising
victorious over the troubles OF lie.
Though they may not loom large. IN
the worlds history. they are the
worlds true conQuerors. Some are
naturally gifted with a happier and
more cheerful temperament thah
others. 1t is merely matter OF habit.
The man who lives his life cheerfully.
without complaint. rises steadily in the
scale of happiness and strengthen
while the grumbler slips notch
downward each day. Some worry so
much over the everyday trifies that
when really big trouble comes along
they have not enough reserve force
left to meet it. Most Of us are too
much given to worry. And most or our
worries are without real reason. Nine
tenths of the things we worry about
are either over and done with or III the
future and never come.
Life Is short: so let's make it as
cheerful as possible. Trouble is BAD
enough without being exaggerated,
without carrying the worries ana Ill
feelings of one day over to the next
without permitting them to be con-
slant wear and tear on the temper
and nerves. Remember the happy
hours and the successes, forget the
sad ones and the failures-as the gold

PRESS OPINIONS
COMMISSION GOVERNMENT.
fChristian Science Monitorl


Facts collected by the federal gov
eminent with regard to the progress
of commission rule in municipalities
In the United States are far more elo-
quent than any argument based on
theory in favor Of the new system or
opposed to it. Commission government
is still occasionally rejected by COM
munities; in few instances where 1t
has been adopted the results have not
been wholly satisfactory, but speaking
generally. increase in the number OF
places adopting it and growth OF sat
isfacton over its operation have been
steady from the beginning. Every
year adds new municipalities to the
list. and every year shows that the
tendency toward its adoption is grow
ing stronger in the larger cities.
Charter reform is the order OF the
day. Where the commission form is
not adopted in its entirety, it is ac-
cepted in modified form. Whether
it Is the form adopted by Galveston.
the, place of its original conception. or
by Dallas, or Des Moines, or Duluth,
or Haverhill, or Knoxville, the idea OF
condensing the governmental system
Is seldom, If ever, lost sight of. AL
most as an invariable rule, the ward
and aldermanic systems are abolished,
the entire council is reduced to five,
the entire electorate votes for its
members and the business OF the mu-
nicipality is taken out of the hands CT
politicians and placed in the hands or
persons competent to deal with It's
several departments. The council, In
other words. becomes commission
of experts.
The effect of this Is seen in the bet.
ter and more economical handling OF
all municipal matters. or the sixty
nine commission cities covered by the
latest government report. sixty-one
were found to be running at less cost
per capita than the average head cX-
pense of the 1875 metropolitan centers
of all classes considered. But even
were the expenditures Of commission
cities higher than others, 1t is gen
orally conceded fact that the taxpayers
of the former are getting more for
their money than they ever received
under the old system. Public i'm
proyements are not only more numer-
Gus under the commission form,
but the character Of the inn
provements has been raised. With
hardly an exception. the reports from
commission-ruled municipalities tell
OF more efficient and cleaner admins

has to be done over again in few

But although plumbers wages are
