A MODEL KITCHEN

The great saver of time is a COM
pact, handy kitchen. This part of the
house should receive most earnest at
tention. An almost model kitchen ]
have in mind is lighted by two long
sash windows opposite, which gives
chance for currents of air on warm
days A room not large enough for
gathering place. A huge kitchen
cabinet with numerous drawers and
shelves; behind glass doors makes it
possible 10 do any baking without
wasting steps. The wide zinc covered
bed of it is fine for dishwashing. AL
most within reach at the right is the
sink with hot and cold water faucets,
and having a drain. Besides the
range on the opposite side of the
room is the upright boiler which
makes washing easier. The floor hard
maple, but better covered with linol-
cum. A rug before the cabinet saves
the jar to the nerves which comes
from walking on hard floors. For the
two hard days of the week, washing
and ironing, no pains or money should
be spared TO get some of the many
appliances now on the market. For
saving labor ironing is the one task
that may be sighted.

when they begged TO be allowed to
live: kill me, and you may set your
traps"
One night, when the family gather
ed about the hearth, they held coun-
ell. The old Indian said nothing, but,
when his wife rose, saying, ut shall
be So" his dull eyes frightened with
a strange new light. Suddenly, he be-
gan singing his death song, rocking to
and fro.

said she, and the old Indian ceased
his singing. He had hoped it might
be that night. The wife OF the de-
mented Indian was to name the execu-
toner, and she named the brother of
the young man who had died of fever.
All night, they say, these Indians sat
about the fire, and when, at length, the
short day dawned, the others went out,
leaving the Indian and the brother of
the dead Algonquin in the lodge alone.
What happened inside has been set
down by interpreters, and is on file in
the department of justice at Ottawa.

would not make nice reading, and
some would blame the mother and
some the Algonqun's brother, but /,

and upon the sorrowing, can see her

of God. Father, forgive them for

An Old Favorite
HUMAN ENEMIES.

The man who never must deny what
other people say,
Who never has to dodge a brick that
some one sends his way,
Who has no enemies to scott or stand
around and sneer
At what he does or tries to do, who
finds his pathway clear,
May find the world a pleasant place,
but when his course is run,
They'll sing no songs and write no
books about the things he's done.
The man who never has to fight to
gain the ends he seeks,
Whose word is never challenged by
another when he speaks.
Who travels on an easy way where
foes are never met,
Who never at the close OF day is
haunted by regret,
May linger long within the world and
hate to go at last,
But few will mourn when he is gone
or mark the way he passed.
1t is not sweet 20 feel that there are
people who would yell
With all their might with JOY II you
went wrong, some day. and fell;
II does not help to make your dreams
all happy ones, at night,
To know that you have enemies who'd
stab you, if they might;
But even Christ, with all His Grace,
would never, I'm afraid,
Have triumphed If II had not been for
enemies He made.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES
Items OF Interest to Friends and
Patrons of our Schools.
BETTER PENMEN.
Penmanship Is TO be Required Sub.
ject I'm the Normal Schools.

The following ruling was made by
the State Board of Education at the
meeting OF January 81, 1914: Moved
and carried that a required course in
penmanship be established in each
of the state normal schools beginning
July /, 1914, and no student shall be
excused from taking the course un-
less an exceptional penman.
A new course in penmanship is be-
ing arranged for the district schools
of the state. Many cities are placing
unusual stress on drill in this subject.
This statewide movement will be
heartily Endorsed by business men.
The poor penmanship of the gradu-
ates Of our schools has not been a
credit TO the public school system of
the state.

BOOKS FOR CHILDREN.
Districts May Purchase Only Books
on the Approved List.

The State superintendent of Public
Instruction, with the cooperation of
the State Librarian, is required by
law to prepare lists of books suitable
for township and district libraries.
These lists will be ready for distribu-
ton in about a month and copies
will be furnished to each township
and school officer entrusted win the
care and custody of their respective
libraries. From these lists the school
officers are to select and purchase
books for their libraries. This law,
however. does not apply to city school
libraries and high school Libraries.
The law is without doubt one Of the
most important school laws passed
by the last legislature. No school
plant is ideal without library of
well-selected books. The selection of
not only good books but books adapt
ed to the age OF the child is vital.
The list as prepared is arranged ac-
cording to subject and indexed by
both title and author.

Economy i'm The Use of Gas.


One OF the most important things
for gas user to learn is how to get
the most work out of the least fuel
To this end the following suggestions
will he useful:
Have things ready To cook, as far
as possible before lighting the gas.
Do not use a large burner when a
small one will do just as well. Turn
down the burners so as to use what
gas you need and no more.
Modern gas ranges have a simmer
ing burner, which will keep a kettle
boiling. Use ii as much as possible;
especially for soups, stews and vege-
tables, and TO keep food hot.
See that the flame is blue-it will
be If you keep the burners clean. Blue
flame is economical.
Plan your meal so that several dish
es may be prepared with the same
burner and fuel. and to use both ovens
at the same time as far as possible.
Meat and potatoes may be roasted
under the gas flame in the lower oven
with less gas than it takes to bake
them in the upper oven.
Turn off the gas from the oven bur-
ners several minutes before the baking
is finished, since the iron will retain
sufficient heat to finish the work.
While roasting in the lower oven
one may bake anything requiring a
moderate heat in the upper one, or the
baking oven may be used for boiling.
In the latter case il Is best to have
the kettles brought to a boiling point
over top burners before placing them
in the oven.

How You Can Help Your Boy

them. They will do anything for a
parent or teacher who believes in
them, encourages them, and tries to
help them; but disparagement dis
heartens them and they succumb I'M
der continual nagging and scolding
Their little sky is easily clouded.
If you have a particular dull child
or a stupid pupil, do not continually
remind him OF his deficiency, for this
picture constantly held in his mind
will kill self-conhdence. We help
people by making them think more of
themselves.
Never condemn the child who is
slow in developing, and even apparent
ly duh and lazy. He may simply be
struggling to find himself. Help him
to self-discovery; sympathize with him
in his difficulties, for they are very
real to him, and he may be suffering
intensely when you think he is merely
lazy. He may be growing SO fast that
all his energies are exhausted in the
growing processes.
A child must be developed from the
standpoint OF what he is. He may not
fit into your conception Of what boy
should be. If you find that the boy
a pine-tree or an apple-tree. The Gre
ator packed the possibilities of the oak
into an acorn, and as soon as 1t begins
to sprout II should not be trained like
vine because the gardner thinks II
would look better as a vine.
Do not try to twist the boy out OF
his normal orbit, where alone he will
find harmony and his life's real mean
ing.
The genius which slumbers in a
child often requires little to develop
IL; but little disbursement and an
tagonism may crush or blight IL. Great
natural ability may lie dormant and
finally die in a boy who is constantly
rebuffed and disheartened by those
older than himself, unless he has an
unusual amount of independence and
self reliance, and a strong determine
ton TO overcome obstacles. Many a
life has been diverted from its normal
channel by ridicule, a sneer, a snub,
a threat. or depreciating remark
Selected.

The training of child is the most
delicate and sacred business in the
world 1t is work that calls for the
greatest wisdom, the finest discern
ment, the most infinite patience.
One OF the most unfortunate things
in civilization, thing that is holding
the race back is the fact that so many
children are trained by mothers and
fathers and teachers who are totally
unfit for their sacred office.
The destiny OF the child hangs upon
its early environment, its parents,
teachers, and associates. Upon these
depend the qualities or characteristics
that will be called out OF it's nature.
There are seeds Of all sorts OF pos
sibilities lying dormant in the boy and
girl. A bad mother, a bad teacher,
by appealing to the bad in them, will
call out the bad. good mother, a
good teacher, by appealing to the best
in them, will call out the best. Evil
responds to evil. Nobility to nobility.
Think of a child with the possibili-
ties of a Washington or a Lincoln
holding in it's young brain, perhaps,
the destinies of millions of people,
whose entire training is in the hands
of ignorance, of inexperienced Think
of piece OF plastic human clay which
responds to the slightest touch and Is

| II you want to get the most out of
the child, you can not do IL by repress-
ing II, by cramping, by watching, or
by criticizing II. We have known chill
dren to become so completely discou-
ragged by beirg denounced, scolded,
perpetually reminded OF their short
comings, their weaknesses by being
told that they were stupid blockheads
and would never amount to anything,
that they completely lost confidence in
themselves, IL not self-respect.

their progress is to a great extent de-
pendent upon praise. Appreciation is

While three-quarters OF a pound of

Peanut Butter,

Roast the nuts, shell and take off
the brown skins. When making large
quantities the removing of the brown
skins is best accomplished by putting
the shelled peanuts in a coarse towel,
covering them with another towel
and rubbing them gently until the
husks are broken or loosened, and
then blowing them off with a bellows.
II you use salt, dust them lightly with
il and grind at once. Mix to a smoothe
paste with half as much butter as you
have peanut powder. 1t is always well
TO taste your butter and use it's fresh
ness as. a guide in the matter of just
how much salt you should add 10 the
peanuts, If any. Put the peanut but
ter in covered glass jars or tumblers,

Practically all classes OF teachers
have an opportunity to better fit them
selves for the work of their profession
during the summer vacation. Agri-
culture is now a required subject in
the eighth grade of rural schools and
is one OF the subjects in which teach
ers must be examined. In order that
teachers may be better prepared in
the subject a course in agriculture
will be given at NJ. A. G. during the
summer of 1914. 1t will begin about
