LOT OF THE SERBIAN WOMAN
To Her Falls the Hard Work of the
Household While Her Husband
Guards Nations Freedom.

"A house is not based upon the
ular proverb in Montenegro, echoed
heartily by others of the Serbian race.
Among the Serbs women are burdened
from their marriage day with harder
work than the men because they have
to use the sickle as well as the spin
ming wheel, to tend the flocks with a
piece of knitting or embroidery in
their hands, and to build haystacks
that will do them as much credit as
the earthenware crockery which is
made in summer for the use of the
whole household
The Serbian cottage contains no pot
ter's wheel, and the rough clay has to
be pounded with an AK and worked in
to paste by mixing with hot water.
Dough is placed in these primitive
dishes, which are supplied with hooks
to draw them from the embers, where
the bread has been baked very slowly.
In Montenegro the curiously-shaped
made, and, owing to the primitive ma
ture of the mountain roads, often have
to be renewed. 1t is considered de-
grading for a man to take up any
trade. The men lead pastoral and
warlike existence, and disdain to carry
| burdens on their backs, though they
| treat the women of their household
with kindness and are never known to
use them cruelty. The defense Of ma
tional freedom must be the main OBJ
ject of his hardy mountain race who
have come through hard struggle
against the Turks without losing their
independence.
| The women of Serbia take second
airy part in all public rejoicing, such
as the Slava. The Slava is a social
gathering as we'll as a religious festi
val, and guests are welcomed by the
women of the house rising to greet
them. A Serbian wife must always
jump to her feet to return a greeting
even if she is seated at her spinning
wheel; she may never cross the roat
when q man is passing.
Serbian women have their owl
merrymakings, known as Prela ant
Sela, when they sit at work together
and while away the time by story tell
ing (Prela) and singing (Sela). The!
are witty by nature and have a rea
gift for expressing their feelings il
song.
A collection of lyrics, composed b,
Serbian peasant women, was publishe,
not long ago, and astonished the crit
les of the western world by the reve
lation of new tone in national poetry
Most of the songs are sad and slow
but there are gay little tunes, in
provised when the Kolo is danced, me
and women joining hands and formin
a big circle.

GETTING RID OF INVENTOR
How General Miles Handled Wild
Eyed Man With BuIletproof
Army Coat.

When General Miles was at the head
of the army he used to be continually
besieged by cranks with pneumatic
firing guns, dirigible war balloons and
other martial inventions. But the gen.
eral would weed these cranks out with
admirable speed. An inventor in his
Office one day tells of curious Incl
dent in this relation.
A card was brought in and laid be-
fore the general
"Oh, send him in," said Miles. "His
business won't take more than min
ute or two"
So in came wild-eyed, long-haired
man, twisting his soft hat nervously
in both hands.

Joins Faculty of the
University.
CHOSEN FOR HIS GOOD RECORD
Prof., Kelly Has An EnViable Reputa
ton for Efficient Work-Author
as Well as Teacher.

F. J. Kelly of the Kansas State Nor
NAL has been chosen Dean of the
School of Education Of the University
of Kansas. The appointment was
made recently by the Board OF Admin
istration in session at Lawrence.
The new Dean is at present in
charge of the Training School at the

methods, new forms in school records,
efficiency devices-brought him to

will enable the state high schools to
profit by his emphasis on efficiency in
educational matters.
Professor Kelly is the author of the
reading test adopted by the New
York City, Detroit and other public
schools. Nineteen Kansas schools
also, are using his reading test this
year. The test assists teachers in i'm

pills by developing their ability tc

ANOTHER BLOW FOR LIQUOR
A Movement Among Bankers of State
to Refuse Collection of Drafts
for lntoxicants.

Almost the last prop upon which the
brewers and distillers and the whole
sale liquor houses have been building
their business in Kansas is about to be
swept away. The Kansas banks are
turning against them. w. w. Bowman,
secretary of the Kansas Bankers Assc-
citation, comprising almost every state
and national bank in the state has sent
out a notice to all of the members of
the association that the collection of
sight drafts for liquor shipments
should be abolished by the Kansas
banks, not because the collection bust
ness is illegal, but from moral or
public policy viewpoint.
For many years the custom of hand
ling the liquor business in Kansas was
for liquor dealer to ship carload OF
his goods to some Kansas town, make
out bills of lading and sight drafts for
each case and forward these to the
banks. There were no names, but any
one who was in need of liquor could
go to the banks and ask if there was
a draft with bill of lading attached for
John Jones. The banks were instruct
ed to turn the bills of lading over to
anyone who offered payment for the
draft
The banks stopped this practice
some years ago and refused to accept
these drafts and bills of ladirg made
L. l,fNNi
are threatening to refuse all liquor bus
mess entirely In fact the secretary
of the state association is urging them
absolutely to decline collection of all
liquor drafts. A small number of Kan
sas banks now refuse to accept these
drafts, but most of the banks take
whatever business comes their way.

The bluebirds' consumption of cult

practically confined to cherries, rasp'
berries and blackberries, and its fruit
eating period is very short, being only
from late fall to early spring when
the insects which it prefers are scarce.
