GIRLS NEED PHYSICAL DRILL
Bending Over Desks often Has q
Tendency to Cause Curvature
Of the Spine.

One who observes girls in gradual
ing classes in different high schools
can hardly fail to be impressed with
their lack of good physical develop
ment, says the Mothers Magazine.
II is safe to say that at least one
third of the girls graduated from
high school have curvatures of the
spine, or uneven shoulders, or stand
in bad position, or have too much
flesh or too little. Investigations
made recently in California showed
that about three-fourths of the girls
who go to college and university are
out of repair physically.
What is the cause of all this? The
prevailing theory is that high-heeled
shoes, construction in dress and lack
Of any systematic exercise are respon-
sible; but the chief reason why girls
are so poorly formed is because prac-
tically no attention has been given
to their physical development until
very recently. In some schools girls
still do not have any regular physi-
cal exercise. They are not advised
by capable teachers regarding their
defects and how to overcome them.
The California report indicated that
many defects were due to habitual
bending over desks, which develops
curvature of the spine, which in turn
develops other deformities. But con-
ditions are probably better today
than they were few years ago. A
girls dress seems better adapted to
helpful physical development than Ii
was ten years ago. Perhaps this will
in time be demonstrated in the better
physical development Of girls who
pass through the schools.

cHIrD,s RIGHTS SET FORTH
Subject Which is Worth Attention Of
Parents Who Would Be Fair to,
Little Ones.

4 principle of psychology which
every mother should know is that the
last thought before going to sleep
makes the deepest impression. Try
it. The last thought at night is sure
to be the first waking thought. A
child should never be punished just
before going TO bed if you wish to
create in him a joyous disposition. A
happy bedtime will mean a sunny
morning face.
Another important fact, based
more upon physiological than upon
psychological principles, is the I'M
portanoe of happy mealtime- Per-
haps the child has done some little
naughty thing and is scolded for it
until he cries or is sent from the
fable. His dinner is spoiled. He
needs that dinner. He cannot be
happy if he is hungry or if he feels
undue censure and he will be. cross
or depressed all afternoon. Did you
ever indulge in weeping at mealtime
or allow yourself'to become very an
cry? If so, did you find your diges-
ton improved and did YOU have a
happy day? As it was with you, SO
is it with the child. 1t is we'll
known physiological fact that anger
and grief interfere seriously with di-
sestion- If you wish to lay in your
child a foundation for indigestion
you can find no more effective way.
1t is even worse to send.a child to
bed supperless. No one can be at
his best morally and spiritually I'M
less he is at his best physically. No
child can be improved morally by be-
ing injured physically. To send a
child away from the table hungry
or to send him supperle>s to bed is
a relic of b8rbarism. 1t will not only
TAIL to bring good results at tbe time
but will lay the foundation of future
misery and mhappiness. A happy
bedtime and happy mealtime are
the right of every child.-Josephine
Barclay in the Mothers Magazine.

REMOVED HEART OF CHOPIN
Before Evacuation OF Warsaw Rus
SLAMS Saw That FRIED Relic OF ,
Musician Was in Safety.

Before evacuatiDg Warsaw the
Russians removed from the Church
of the Holy Cross the heart of the
great musician, Chopin.
Chopin left Poland'to.seek his for
tune in more favored lands in 1880,
and was kept in exile by circum.
stances till his death in Paris.
"His body rests in Pere-La Chaise
cemetery, sprinkled with Polish
earth. His heart was sent back to
Warsaw to speak of his love for tor
tured Poland and to inspire his conn
trymen to hope and resolution" says
the Glasgow Herald.
His letters to his parents were de-
stroyed by the soldiers of General
Berg in 1863 in the sacking of the
house in which they were stored.
Paris swarmed with Polish refugees,
and Chopin found many friends
among them. List tells us he was
pure, generous, good and compass
sionate man, filed with a single sem
timent, the love Of country.
"But the man Chopin was very
reserved, and the not inconsiderable
Chopin literature does not bring us
into anything like close touch with
him. Only as. a musician could he
unburden his heart freely to all the
world. In knowing his music we
know Poland" says the article quot
ed above

GIRLS IN THE PROFESSIONS
Wecy Few Take Their Occupations as
Likely to BE the Work Of
a Lifetime.

Mary Cholmondeley once wittily
said that a man looks tolerant]y upon
friendships between girls because
he saws tic himself, Occupy until ]
come"
The same might be said with even
greater truth about mans view Of
girls work and about her own view
OF it, for thar matter.
As long as marriage is at any rate
possibility, and as long as the pref
ndiee against a woman's continuing
her professional career after mar
riase prevails, very few women will
take their professions as seriously as
a man takes his.
Moreover, and this is even more
important, very few parents will take
TIE propagation of their daughters
for professional life a. seriously as
they take the preparation of their
sqns
As rule girls are not encouraged
10 consider what they will be while
they are children, whereas father
and mother will talk to boy about
his future profession when he is only
ten or twelve years old.
