MAKING Children Think

There is no end of discussion as TO
what courses OF study shall be taken
up by the schools. Different views
are expressed, ranging from the bare
outlines Of the old-time three RS" to
the most elaborate idea Of culture
study, or more practical forms Of
teaching hand work and home arts.
Meanwhile. there is one great essen
tisl running for all instruction. That
is, that children be taught TO think
things out for themselves. Almost ans
course Of study is good If this power Ia
given.-St. Joseph News Press.

SAID TO BE UNDER CONTROL
AT CHICAGO.
SHOW CATTLE ARE ISOLATED
Value of Stock Slaughtered Is Put 1T
$74, 0oo-FederaI and Stare Govern
ments to Stand cost-Epidemic Is
Checked.

Chicago, Mo-. 10.-With the exceJ-
ton of about seventy-five cases among
the 500 prize dairy show cattle iso-
lated in the feeding stables near uss
International amphitheater thSss is
not a case of hoof and mouth disease
left at the Chicago stockyards.
The last cases we're eradicated when
252 cattle and 100 hogs we're shot and
their carcasses thrown into the quick
lime pits. For the first time since the
stockyards opened, there was not liv-
ing steer, hog or sheep inside the
yards
DR.. S. E. Bennett, government in
spector in charge. declared the cpl
demic was absolutely under control
in Chicago. His men, working with
the state veterinarian, will go out into
the state to begin the slaughter of in
fected dairy herds.
The first work viii be done in the
south end of Kane county, where about
five hundred animals on seven farms
viii be shot and their carcasses de-
stroyed.
The value of the animals slaugh-
tered and buried in quicklime since
the epidemic was found at the stock
yards is $4,000, $1,000 for the cattle
and $4,000 for the hogs. The federal
government will pay half of this sum
and Governor Dunno of Illinois has
promised { ask the legislature to ap-
propriate sufficient money to pay the
other half.
Doctor Bennett said the disease was
completely checked here. and that it
soon would be under control in all
the states except Montana. 1t is feared
that if 1t spreads to the ranges, it
may not be stamped out for years. He
had received no word from there yes
terday, but said government inspec-
tors were carefully guarding the train
load of animals in which the infection
was discovered and watching for any
new outbreak along the line
No new states have been quaran-
tined, but fresh outbreaks we're re-
ported down state. About fifty coun-
ties in Illinois are under quarantine.
Two herds were destroyed in Wis
consin, and the state veterinarian of
Colorado issued an order barring all
live stock from entering the state un-
less the cars are fumigated and the
animals passed by a state or govern
ment inspector. He also asked the
authorities Of Utah, Wyoming, New
Mexico. Arkansa= and Oklahoma to
adopt similar precautions.

PARTY FAVORS WORTH WHILE
Really Useful and Pleasing Trifles
May Be Devised for Both Men
and Women.

{ A few of the really useful favors
which may be provided for a small
party are we'll worth considering.
For the girls there are the dainuest
possible card cases Of pasteboard COW
cred with pale-toned Japanese crepe
and decorated with @ hand-painted
flower design, that cost very little
whether made at home or made to or.
der. Then there are the work bags in
Bulgarian colors that can be made Of
the blue and red wide ribbons which
have recently gone out of fashion for
sashes and girdles, but which are the
prettiest materials imaginable for
fancy" things.
Any girl will gladly welcome favor
in the shape of w-stemmed, tall
Chinese vase in blue and white or blue,
red, green and black, for 1t makes an
ideal receptacle for hat pins when not
needed for the single fresh flower
which should be on every daintily-
equipped dressing table.
1t is also a coed idea to give single
teacups and saucers in oriental ware,
because nearly every girl is now COL
lecting a harlequin set.
The men will like the latest thing in
oriental neckwear, the brown and
white ties of Tanryoka crepe de chine
which can be homemade from the pat
tern procured by buying one shop spec
linen. II 1t is too much bother to
make these ties, the party hostess may
provide watch guards in plain and sub
stantial black silk ribbon. These
guards are exceptionally good-looking
and smart.
If there is to be only one sort Of
favor provide bridge sets consisting of
two packs of cards and score pad,
leather case inclosed. Everybody plays
auction these days and everybody likes
to own an individual bridge outfit.
