The Care of the Hands in Winter.

care OF the handS In winter Is a
matter too frequently neglected and
always with disastrous results. A
few practical hints will prevent all
trouble II carefully followed out.
Soft water. not too hot. and good
soap are first essentials and are OF
the utmost Importance. Lather the
hands well. allowing the soap to get
well ahsobed in the skin. A good
way Of soaking the fingers well In
soapy lather Is to put the finger tips
of each hand into the palm of the
other. working the fingers together.
as 1t were. and then gently rubbing
tiny piece Of soap between them.
In this way the fingers. nails, cuticle
are thoroughly cleansed, and II
properly done no nailbrush at all Is
necessary. This. indeed, ought never
to be used to cleanse the inside OF the
nail. into which no hard foreign sub
stance should ever be introduced. as
II simply forces the nail away from
the flesh and leaves a cavity in which
dirt and dust collect.

St. Paul. Minr1., July s-Wath har- mony in the ranks of. the National Education Association assured as re- suit of the withdrawal from the presi- dentiaI race last night of pr. David B. Johnson, of Rock Hill, S. C., and L. R. Alderman, of Portland, Ore, in favor of pr. David Starr Jordan, the convention today put aside political ae- tivity and held 32 meetings for the discussion of educational topics
 Segregation of mentally defective children vas recommended in a pa per read by pr. Franklin w. Barrows, of Buffalo. N Y, state medical inspec- tor Of schools, before the department sef special education.
 Children who are teachable-al1 those above the stage of idiocy y-should be gathered into special classes under expert teachers = Dr. Barrows said. Children not in schools should be in- spected regularly by experts The home life of subnormal and abnormal children often suppresses the httie mentality that tAey possess
 ssT9ae school occupies a strategic pe-. sitfon with every facility for the dis covery of these unfortunate cases No other agency can do what the school can do for the prevention of evil re- suits that flow from unrecognized and untreated mental delinquency.
 That moving pictures are destined to revoIutionize the present method of teaching was the contention of speakers at a meeting devoted to the discussion of their use They said that the motion pictures give visuality and quicken the imagination Of the child to a far greater degree in few ninutes' time than the text book would in days of study
 Representatives of smaller schools are behind a resolution which is be- fore the committee on resolutions dis approving of the. Sage Foundation. the Carnegie Foundation. the various Rockefeller boards and similar organ izations and the board for the pen sioning Of teachers in the big educa- tiona1 institutions.
 The resolution is based on the democracy of education and the long effort Of the association to guard that democracy. It recites that the foun- dations injure the small schools and demands that a committee be appoint ed by the association to investigate with a view to learning whether the various foundations and boards in re- ality have stimulated teachers to study and industry or have decreased their ambition by providing them with a certainty of livelihood after their teaching days have ended.
