The first and best aid to the sick and

tunately, the administration rejects

The stamp taxes upon ordinary bust
ness transactions ought to be abolished
They are not only irritating and incon'
venient, but they are inequitable and
unjust. The income tax law, while
complicated beyond understanding in
many respects, Is essentionallv sound.
It can easily be made the source OF
more revenue than we now receive. 1
thoroughly believe in the exemption
small incomes, but the exemption is too
large and should be reduced. On the
other hand, the rate levied on the very
large incomes is too low.
During the continuance OF the war
we should tax, and tax heavily, the
business of manufacturing and selling
arms and munitions for export. Moth
ing could be more just than measure
which would transfer to the treasury
some of the unprecedented profit OF
those who are engaged in such trade.
Sooner or later we shall be compelled
to tax great inheritances, either direct
or collateral. possibly both. Such ar
imposition is eminently fair, but IL i
we're practicable it should be preceded
by an amendment to the Constitution
empowering an adjustment between
the state and federal authorities to &C
complish uniformity. Whether any
thing can now be done in that direc
ton is most doubtful, but it is clea
that in some way we will shortly reacl
that source of national income.

The CHARM
OF MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi-
cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood is try
Ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or I'M
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism unified for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
q happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkhan1's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.

South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1915-02-14

A small boys rumpus with his
school principal disturbance that
broke into the public press and was a
topic Of general comment and criti-
cism-moved L. p. Stanheld, who has
lived in South Bend ~ years. to re-
late experiences of school life which
occurred in South Bend in 1919
some &c years ago.
Mrs. Martha Finley. who in after
years became immortalized TO the
children Of the United States as the
author Of the Elsie" books, is the
first school teacher that Mr.. Stanfeld
can remember. Her school was very
exclusive and was known as an in
fants' +" school. The term kinder
garten was as yet unheard of at that
time.
Mrs. Finley's school was located at
the corner of Center and Main SITS,
just out of the business district The
children OF the middle classes were
her pupils, and even those of more
luxurious hOmes-aS luxury went in
those days-were known to have be-
come her pupils. Elementary studies
formed the curriculum of this insti-
tuition, mathematics being taught by
The intricacies of the slate were
demonstrated TO delighted children
who ranged in ages from six TO eight
years The slate to them was the
hallmark of school efficiency-an
ideal when realized that caused more
delight than would an automobile to
the scions Of the advanced goth cen
fury family.
Mrs. F'inley's favorite method of
punishment, according TO Mr.. Stan
field, was the crack OF a rule across
the palm of the hand. Punishment
then was accepted as a part Of the
school program. An UNPUBLISHED
student. one who had not felt the
sting of the rule or the humiliation
of a halliday with his face to the
wall, was a stranger in a strange
world of childish fancy.
The next school attended by Mr..
Stanfield was upon the lot now occu-
pied by the oliver theater. Here il
was that Prof. Sperbeck, said by the
children swayed by the iron rule of
his discipline, to be the hardest and
cruelest schoolmaster of South
Bends early days.
His school was also private, attend
ed by older boys and girls. His
pupils were at the same time edu-
Gated to correct forms of grammar
and to accept the word Of the school
master as law in whatever question
might arise. The recalcitrant schol-
ar was not let off with the sting of
the thin rule nor the disgrace of
facing the wall for a few hours
Nothing so easy met with the approx
al Of Prof. Sperbeck. schoOlmaSter.
IF that boy who was cuffed by his
principal could have attended Sper-
beck's school for a few days" said
Mr.. Stanfield, "some concrete idea of

what school discipline was in reality
would have been cleaned by him.
Sperbeck's system. while rough. was
effective. He would grasp the erring
scholar by the collar OF his jacket
hold him at arms length and kick
his feet from under him. Since there
was nothing between the boy and the
floor but thin air, there was nothing
TO check the progress of his body to
the floor.
Not only once would that be done
The process would be repeated un-
til the pupil from sheer weakness
would be unable to stand on his feet -
A system Of public schooling was
a dream in those days. according to
Mr.. Stanfeld. The rapid advance
ment Of the American system mas
been followed with vast interest by
him.
There was only one school for
public attendance in South Bend
when I went TO school" he said.
That was a district school over on
the corner OF Jefferson and Wayne
SITS. 1t has long since been removed
to give place TO a larger and better
fitted portion of the city school sys-
