Cleaning the Gas StoUe
Some Suggestions to Keep the Range

By MRS. CHRISTINE FREDERICK

F there is one thing the city

it is the opportunity to use

of coaling, the gas stove seems ike

Turn to the right and 1t is gone!
But even this easiest of all stoves

Champion of "Super-Norrnal" Child
Defines Education AS Self-COntrol|
Mrs. Winifred Sackville Ston-
er Urges Mothers of Clever
Children to Take Charge
of Training Themselves.
BY FLORENCE E. YODER.

The champion of the super-normal
! child. Mrs. Winifred Sackville Stoner,
and her twelve-year-old girl prodigy,
Winifred, jr., are in Washington today.
The authority for the name of cham
pion is no other than Mrs. Stoner her
SELF for she is seff-styled as such, and
does not hesitate to state emphatically
that there Is lots of work for her to do.
Il am the champion of the super-nor-
mai child she said cheerfully this
morning in a brisk and breezy inter-
view. There is everything in the
world being done for the normal child.
Our whole school system is an attempt
to give him an education, and in the
last few years 1t has been found nee
essary to acknowledge the existence Of
the sub-normal child. So there are but
two types accounted for, and the un-
usually bright child, or the child who
is even little better than the average,
Is left out entirely.
Child Held Down Is Tortured.
His plight is as bad as that of the
sub-normal child. but has not been pub
liclv admitted as such. Our schools
can do nothing for him. or else so little
that from sheer lack of something to do
he gets into mischief.
physically and mentally. the clever
child who Is held down is tortured. He
Is like a spirited horse, hitched tight
and fast to an old wagon beside n
heavy plug horse who cannot and will
not proceed at anything but an ambling
gait. Straining and pulling, the spirit
ed horse works himself into a fever
mentally and physically. and succeeds
in merely delaying all progress.
II am not fighting the public schools
and ! do not wish to be quoted as
having made any charges against them
The fault lies largely with those moth
ers who could train their children at
home but who do not

that the duty to the child be carried
out was the next idea to be explained
by Mrs. Stoner. The fat and healthy
young Winifred was not to be seen. but
anxious looks up the head of the lobby
indicated that the fond mother was on
the lookout for the young woman. who
has been SO widely talked of In Amer
Tea. She had gone for a walk. and even
though perfectly sure of the ability OF
her daughter to more than take care Of
herself, Mrs Stoner was normally anx-
ious not to miss her.
Next summer at the Castle at Tar
rytown- on the Fl udson a school for par
ents will be established. There fathers
their children. The women are to be
graduates Of the school, and they will
live in tents pitched in the grass.
The mother Is not the only one who
should he taught and who should do
share In the instruction of the child.
The only perfect thought emanates from
tho nan-woman mind, from the comb
nation Of the mental powers of both
sexes. The child who Is entirely under
TIE influence Of either one or the other
OF the sexes is not given the broadest
Of development. Fathers should assist
In exactly half OF the education Of the
child.
Just Human and Natural.
Mrs. Stoner will appear at the audi
torium of Woodward & Lothrop this
afternoon, and at the Public Library
this evening. The public is invited. Miss
Winifred, jr., will contribute her share
of the program by merely being her
self. And this. b. the way. was the

In most sections of the South It is

grown. The same varieties may pe
grown in the autumn as in the spring.
but 1t Is usually desirable to plant larger
varieties. such as Flat Dutch or Danish

After her experience as a student of
IndiaS religious and social life, Sister
Devamata has been greatly impressed
by the lessons the country can teach

ing the early settlement of India, she
went on to account for the idealism
that is an essential part of the life
both social and religious.
When the Aryan race migrated
from Central Asia one branch settled
in India. Here everything was on
such large scale, the mountains
were so high, the forests so luXuri-

There was only one caste at that

Tor eight or ten years for instructions

ton was completed the young men
received vocational advice. Now we
