Punctuality

The punctual man is bird he
always is true to his word; he
knows that the skate who is ten
minutes late is trifing and vain
and absurd. He says, I'll be with
you at four ;; though torrents may
ruthlessly pour, you know wher
the clock strikes the hour he viii,
knock with his punctual fist at
your door. And you say, "He is
surely a trump! I haven't much
use for the chump who is ever
more late, making other men wait
the place for that gent is the
dump" The punctual man is a
peach: he sticks to his dates like
a leech; it's a pity, alas, that he
hasn't class of boneheaded slug
CARDS to teach. He's welcome
wherever he wends; the country
is full of his friends; he goes by
the watch and he ne'er makes a
botch of his time, so he never Of
fends. If he says he'll get mar
ried at nine, you can bet he'll be
standing in line, with his beauti-
full bride, and the knot will be
tied ere the clock is done making
the sign. If he says he'll have
cashed in at FIVE, at that hour he
will not be alive; you can order
his shroud and assemble a crowd,
clear out to the boneyard to
drive. The punctual man is 10 (!
The biggest success that l know
He is grand and sublime, he is
always on time, not late by ten
minutes or so.

The convention Is really five conven-

ously with those of the engineers, ac-
countants, claims and transportation
officials.
Unusually Important Problems.
To the parent association is left the
consideration of the more general prob
lens affecting the industry. and some
unusually important ones are to be
considered this year. Railway men are
impressed with the decrease in rail-
way expansion and the difficulty In
raising money for electric railway pur-
poses. and are seeking the cause and
remedy. The electric railway industry
is but a little over thirty years old and
during the decade between 1890 and
1900 and in the following decade the
expansion was remarkable. Since 1910,
however, there has been a marked fall
ing of in new construction and a cor
responding reluctance on the part Of
investors to place their money in rail-
way securities. That this is partly due
to oppressive legislation and restric-
tion of earnings is the belief of many
Of the leaders of the industry, and
with a view of properly presenting the
facts to the public the program Of the
American Electric Railway Association
will contain several addresses and re-
ports bearing upon this condition.

Good Natured Rivalry.

Following this efforts will be made
during the periods devoted to physical
culture to develop a good-natured RI
valry among the youngsters. AS they
improve their carriage or fail to main-
tain their former standard they will be
moved from one side of the room to the
other. AS it is one Of the instructive
desires of the little ones always to sit
on ''the best" side it is thought they
will make strenuous efforts to sit and
stand In erect, healthful positions.
Also, they will wish to improve the rat
ing of their class, it is thought.
One of the features of physical cul-
ture work, as DR.. Stoneroad plans it
this year. is to inform the youngsters
just why they take their exercise.
I'VE will not make the children take
this or that exercise simply on the
basis because you're told to do it, "
said the director of physical culture to-
day. but will explain, just what each
exercise or set of exercises does for
their bodies. In this way I think we
will get them to take deeper interest
in this branch of their work"

CHILDREN TO BE TAUGHT
TO HOLD ERECT P0sTUREs
Physical Culture Department of Pub

for Winter.

Teaching children to hold themselves
erect, both while sitting and standing,
is to be one of the tasks-and it is no
slight one-which the physical culture
department of the District public
schools intends to undertake this year.
DR.. Rebecca Stoneroad, director of
physical training, has told her assist
ants to devote a large amount of their
attention this year to developing good
posture in the children
The plan to be followed is one which
has already met with considerable sue
cess In New York. Briefly. it is this:
The children in each class are examined
as they sit and as they stand. Those
who pass certain standards will be put
on one side Of the room; those who fall
below will be placed on the other side.
The class as a whole will be given a
per cent rating.
