Helping Him Out.

Jenkins, newly welded subur- banite, kissed his wife goodby the other morning and, telling her he would be back home at six, got into his auto and started for town. At six p. m. no hubby appeared and the little wife began to get nervous When the hour of midnight arrived she aroused her father and sent him off to the telegraph office with six telegrams to as many brother Elks living in town, asking each if her husband was stopping with him overnight. As dawn appeared. a farm wagon containing farmer and the derelict husband drove up to the house, while behind the wagon trailed the broken down auto. Almost simultaneously came a messenger boy with an an- swer to one of the telegrams, fol- lowed at intervals by five others. All of them read: Yes, John is spending the night with me. ?

THE PENALTY oF
 CARELES5NESS
By 6. w. IngIish, Fire Prevention Expert.

Every time you hear the cry of "Fire!" you can be almost absolutely safe in thinking that someone has been careless. Fires don't happen. They are the inevitable result of combinations of preventable things. When analysed to the last equation 1t will be found that carelessness is the root whence spring nearly all fires.
 What a penalty industry pays to carelessness. Fire is the great de stroyer. The wealth of generation can be wiped out in but a brief hour.
 Why not fight fires before they start? Why not so conduct your habits and so keep your premises that when the fire demon wants to offer your savings as sacrifice he will pass you by, just as those of Egypt of old were passed over when the sign they had been told to place over their doors, were seen?
 Too often when those who are responsible from fire cry out they are the victims of bad luck, they are put paying the natural penalty for their own carelessness.
 If you want to keep down your fire insurance rates, wage eternal war fare against those things that ever breed fires.

AN AGRICULTURAL COUNCIL
By T. N. Carver,


 Professor of Economies. Harvard University
 Every city has it's chamber of com merce or it's Board of Trade. The purpose of such an organization is to study economic and business op portunities of the city and promote enterprises which will help to build the city Does any one know of a good and sufficient reason why ev cry rural neighborhood ought not have similar organization?
 Tn Germany they already have such organizations They are generally called the landwirthschaftsrath or agricultural council. Some students ot the problem of rural organization are strongly of the opinion that such an agricultural council is necessary before much can be done for the bet. tering of rural credit or the market ing of farm produce. There is no object, for example, in having more capital in a farming neighhaFhood unless the farmers know without any guess-work just how to use that capi- tai so as to increase the production and the profit of their farms. If all the leading farmers of neighbor. hood would lay their heads together and talk over the situation and study the opportunities for new investment they would be less likely to make mistakes than if they work secretly, oo .coparato ,udividua1q

RURAL SCHOOL TERM
 SHOULD BE EXTENDED
By p. p. Claxton,
U. s. Commissioner of Education.

-
 Tn most States school days for country children are fewer than for city children. The average length of school term in cities of the United States is one hundred and eighty five days; in rural communities one hundred and thirty eight days, a diff ference of forty-seyen days. In some States the difference Is much greater fhsan tl-i2 s-vorn Tn many ccuntie: the average length of the rura school term is less than one hun dred days, and in some districts it IS less. On the other hand, in the States of California, New York and Connecticut, the country schools are in session one hundred and eighty days in year, and in several other States almost as long The country schools of Rhode Island are in sess sion one hundred and ninety days in a year
 If all children are to have an equal opportunity for education we must even up the school terms of the country and give to all country chil- dren at least as many days as are now given to city children. One hundred and eighty-five days of schooling year for all children will not be too much. There are coun- tries in which the schools, both for city and country, are in session from two hundred and twenty to two hum dred and fifty days or more in the year. American children need as much education as those of any oth CT country, and this applies to the rural as we'll as urban districts.
