WOMEN ARE HoNoRED IN WAR
Medals, Decorations, and Rank to

The work OF women at the front
Is not only appreciated by officers and
men alike. but 1t already has been

Cold Storage a Blessing.

Those poached eggs which you will
have for your breakfast next Christ
mas morning went into the cold stor-
age house the other day. And you are
lucky that somebody is saving a cou-
pie for you.
Our Industrious hens are now pro.
ducing twice as many eggs every day
as we care to eat. Months before De
cember comes they will have gone up
on their prolonged vacation.
Without cold storage those two eggs
for your Christmas breakfast would
cost as much as you will pay for q
dozen. A solution Of ammonia pumped
through pipes in storage rooms does
for you what the hen herself cannot
do-distributes supply OF good eggs
evenly around the entire calendar.
We talk foolishly about cold storage
as II 1t were q menace instead Of one
of the genuine blessings of scientific
age.

ANCIENT AND MODERN
LANGUAGES

Will the so called dead languages

year TO these subjects. Latin still
has a plarge place, but Greek has al
most dropped out of sight.

It does not seem much use for the
ordinary boy to study Greek today

WHAT FREE GOVERNMENT
MEANS

The granting to the English people
20 years ago June 10, Of the Magma
Charter seems an event OF very dis
tant interest Yet all through our
daily life can be found ideas and
principles that date back to this MS
toric occasion. The present genera
ton owes It's debt to those who ages
ago asserted the right Of the citizen
against tyranny.
A school boy was asking the other
day, about the method OF procedure
in case a man was arrested Tor some
minor offense. II the offender was
seen by the police officer to be clear
" guilty, without any question about
IL. It seemed strange to the boy that
he could not be punished without go
ing through with the formality Oh
taking him before court. Perhaps
some grownups will think so too.
AS the boy grows older he VIII ma
running through our life the Magma
Charter principle, that no one can
be condemned on suspicion, or In an
irregular or informal way. Every as'
cused person also must have MS
chance in court to prove his innocence
before a jury if he wishes. This ana

BIG FORTUNES IN ENGLAND

Some Of Those Enjoyed by

This was the fourth largest estate
in England, exceeded only by the es-

Ernest Cassel and Lord Iver But the
real estate income of the duke OF
Westminster Is less than the securi-

Mr.. Thatcher then gave statistics

for drink made 100000 paupers, $780,

premature deaths, and 100000 bu-
shells of wheat were consumed In one
year. For this expenditure she got
crime, misery, vice, disease, ruin and

would have paid England's debts and

cense under which 1t has grown to
such shocking proportions.
II lay It down as sound principle
in regard to legislation that society,
should not by its laws protect evil.
This perhaps, is sufficiently clear
from the remarks already made; but
the importance OF the principle in
itself, and the application which
intend to make of 1t, require that 1t
should be made little more 3istinct
and prominent. The position Is that
the purpose of society in organizing
government under such organization,
should not be to protect evil in any
form. The law is made for the law
less and disobedient, for the ungodly
and for sinners, for unholy and pro-
fame, for murderers of fathers and
murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
for whoremongers, for them that de-
file themselves with mankind, for men

Is to suppress crime, to punish wrong
doors. to remove iniquity, to promote
that which is Just and true. And 1t
matters not what the evil is, nor
how lucrative 1t may be, nor how
much capital may be invested In 1t,
nor how much revenue may be deriv-
ed from it. nor how many persons
may have an interest in its sontinu

to suppress it-not to protect It; to

VOCATIONAL TRAINING
FOR INDIAN SCHOOLS

The committee on course OF study
for the United States Indian schools
recently convened by the Commission
er of Indian Affairs, Cato Sells, after
several weeks work In conference
at Washington, has completed n course
of study which will give to the Indians
the best vocational training offered by
any school system in the United
States.
As these schools must train Indian
youth of both sexes to assume the
duties ard responsibilities of self-sup-
port and citizenship, this course
stronly emphasizes vocational training.
II is divided into three divisions. The
first Is the beginning stage, the second
the finding stage and the third the fin
lshing stage. During the first and
second periods the training In domest'
ic and Industrial activities centerS
around the conditions essential to the
improvement and proper maintenance
of the home and farm. The course
outline in the prevocational division Is
unique In the fact that in addition to
the regular academic subjects, boys
are required to take practical courses
in farming, gardening, dairying, farm
carpentry, farm blacksmithing, farm
engineering, farm masonry, farm paint
