Farrar's Conception Of Justice.

Attorney General Farrnr's bias in
favor of the owners and his conception
of fairness is well shown by his COM
mcnt on the grand jury which met at
Trinidad in August. 1914. and which un-
der his direction returned indictments
against i24 strikers and strike leaders.
OF this jury Mr.. Farrar testified before
the commission in Denver.
I desire TO say here that regardless
of the reports which have been made,
have never seen more fair minded body
OF men gathered together under condi-
tions such us prevailed there than were
the twelve men who constituted that
grand jury, and the charges which were
made that they were absolutely one
sided aud partisan are absolutely with
out foundation whatever
Following is the composition of this
grand jury as reported by Mr.. John A.
Fitch of the staff Of the Survey. an
Investigator of established reliability
and fairness.

Completion of these two courses will firmly ground the student in what are usually known as the classics and will enable him the better to appre- ciate the other and lighter reading to be found in the other lists.
 The reading course for parents. which is under the direct supervision Of Miss Ellen c. Lombard. secretary of the home educational division. in cludes a number of books dealing with problems of everyday life in tho home. The volumes on this list fn- cfude books on practical motherhood. marriage, development of children. care of babies. domestic economy. shelter and clothing. domestic science and a number of pamphlets and bul- letins issued by the department of agriculture and dealing with the can ming and preserving of fruits and vegetables.
 The boys course includes . few of the more exciting books upon the lists of American literature and worlds fiction. and in addition such books as Hans Brinkcr.' The Jungle Book Westward Ho!' biographies of Lincoln. Lee and Franklin. addresses by Lincoln and Washington. Cleveland Mo6ett's Careers of Dangers and Dar- ing and Bulfinch's Age of Chivalry.' The careful perrsal of these books will, we feel. pay large dividends not only upon the moral character of the boy himself but upon the future vel fare of the country at large.
 The girls course includes only one or two of the books recommended for boys. but it parallels the other course in that it advocates the reading of . selected few of the worlds master pieces of fiction and the moro ju. venile of the American authors works. Alice in Wonderland Little Women. The Min on the Floss Evangeline. Helen Keller's story of her life and the four books dealing with house fur nishing. the preparation of food and tue physical side of girlhood and wom' anhood are among the other books rec commended"

wiches packed in these boxes keep fresh and moist. Ginger bread. which is so good when fresh. may also be packed in a cracker box. Coid-cream jars or wide-mouthed bottles will be large enough to hold portion of jam or jelly for a child's lunch. Screw-top matted milk bottles are fine for car rying matted milk. cocoa or plain milk. Sandwiches should be provided for satisfying hunger with pickle or other relish and dessert of fruit, cake or tart
 When preparing sandwiches set the butter where it will be softened by heat. as it spreads much better.
 Crisply fried bacon put between un- butta-ed bread slices makes a good, wholesome sandwich.
 Corned or roast beef. chopped as for hash. mixed with chopped onion and mashed potato. is generally liked.
 Goldfish made as for fish balls made thin. and used as filling for sand wiches. is also delicious.
 Peanut butter or peanuts chopped, mixed with cream cheese as another good filler. is most tasty.
 Sweet sandwiches served with a fruit salad and coffee will make a fine lunch.
 We must remember in putting up . child's lunch that 1t must be some thing nourishing and quick to eat, for he is anxious to have more time to play. The school that is up to date will have some arrangements made to serve some hot dish like soup or cocoa, or even hot milk. A small kerosene stove is a most convenient part of any cchool equipment, If the heating stove is such that there is no surface for warming food. Children are always happy with a bit of fruit. A bit of candy is another addition which is always q delight, and . piece or two is not objectionable at the close of meal

There are the 'lliad' and odyssey of Homer. the Divine Comedy of Dante. and the great dramas of Shake speare--The Merchant of Venice. Macbeth Hamlet and 'Othello'-and Goethe's Faust
 These books should be read by all who would know the worlds best lit- erature and life. The bureau of educa- tion therefore has chosen them for its first course in reading. and we have been very pleasantly surprised to note that the majority of persons who have evinced interest in this movement have inquired particularly about the bibles and their supplements. the Tit erary masterpieces We have been of the opinion that the majority of people would find these selections . little heavy for their reading and would prefer the works listed under the fiction heading. But nearly every inquiry which has reached us from adults has specified tha' the writer de- sired particularly to familiarize him. self with the frs. two courses. ITO everyone who inQui-es concern ing the course we send . blank. to be filled out and kept as a record in Washington, and a list of the books of the special courses designated. We advise that the reading begin as soon as possible and that. when possible. the books be taken in the order named. But this is not essential 70 the obtaining of the certificate of merit given by the government in lieu of the usual college or university diploma or degree when the student completes the entire course and sub. mits satisfactory evidence of having read all the books on the first two lists within three years from the time ol joining the reading circle.
 The second course is intended aa
 a supplement to the first and includes nine books: Job. Isaiah. Deuteronomy 'Prometheus Bound of Aeschylus virgil's 'Aene,a.' The Nibelungenlied. 1 Cervauucs A'vn ~~i>oso, 4sIHUeI vi plays by Moliere and Milton's Para | disc Lost

 Photography.

Young Bilkins is an enthusiastic de- votee of amateur photography. He al- ways insists upon taking" his family and friends posed in more or less ar tistic attitudes.
 Not long ago there was an exhibi- tion of the work local photograph ic club to which the young fellow be- longs, and where were displayed the results of certain of his efforts to im- mOrtalize his family and friends. In one corner hung a group of figures twisted into the most extraordinary positions, the general effect being that of persons in various stages of par alysis.
 Who in the world are those queer looking people?" asked someone.
 ''Oh. those are sope of Bilkins' strained relations" said a bystsuder.

Warrior of Today.

George Wharton Pepper said at . luncheon at the Plattsburg training camp for officers:
 The methods of warfare have changed enormously in the past year. The sword, for example. is no longer carried. The sword has quite disap- peared from war.
 "A story comes from the Argonne about a French chasseur who took . German officer prisoner. The chasseur. boy, tyro. said to the officer:
 Give up your sword.'"
 But the officer shook his head and answered:
