RELATIONS OF AUSTRIA AND
ITALY REACHES ACUTE STAGE

London, March 21.-10:25 o. M
The relations between Italy and Aus
tria are believed to have reached an
acute stage. A Rome dispatch says
Austrian and German subjects have
been advised by their Consuls to leave
Italy in the shortest possible time and
that a number of Germans who re-
Gently arrived in Italy are being
watched because of a suspicion that
they are military spies.
There have been reports for some
days that Germany's efforts to secure
the continued neutrality of Italy by
inducing Austria to cede Trent and
other territory to her were not meet
ing with success. Italy, it was said.
demanded that the territory be ceded
to her Immediately, but the Teutonic
allies desired to make the transfer af-
ter the war.
Following this came reports that
Austria had commenced strengthen
ing her southern frontier, and, &C.
cOrding to a dispatch received in
Paris from Rome today, Italian Off
GERS of all arms belonging to the first
line, who have been on half pay, have
been called to the colors. In military
circles here this order is considered
significant. it being commended that
these officers would not be called from
the public administration unless the
situation was serious. No Austrian
news on the subject is available in
London, the censor in that country
having, it is said, prohibited COM
ments.
Greece More Active.
There also are reports that Greece
is preparing to adopt a more active
attitude. Following a series Of pro-
longed cabinet meetings at Athens the
Greek Minister of Marine is quoted as
having said that the Greek govern
ment had received all guarantees and
to have indicated that the country is
about to engage in some enterprise.
AirShips Raid Paris.
Paris, March 21.-zeppelin airships
raided Paris early this morning and
dropped a dozen bombs, but the dam
are done was unimportant. Seven or
eight persons were injured, but only
one seriously. Four of the aircraft
started for the capital, following the
valley of the Disc, but only two reach
their goal. Missiles also were drop
ped at Compiegne,. Ribecourt and
Dreslincourt, but without serious re-
suit.
Paris remained calm while the aeri-
al invasion was in progress and resi-
dents of the city exhibited more curl

the comfort of living. Finally. there
is more opportunity for recreation in
the city, and frequently, strange as it
may appear, more to appeal to the
sense of beauty that is inherent in
practically every man.
Cooperation or the part of rural
communities car do as much to alter
these conditions as it can to increase
the average cash income. The COM
mittees that have these matters in
charge should, therefore, be regarded
as quite as important as those which
deal with business questions, and
they should receive the same support
from the entire community which
they are endeavoring to benefit. The
result will be a community spirit
which, in it's way, is capable of pro-
ducing as valuable results as the ma
tional spirit. In facts says the ar
ticle in closing, Patriotism, liko
charity, begins at home that is in
the neighborhood."

children how to get it. So in the low
er grades, through that form Of oc-
cupation called nandwork, the chill
dren learn unconsciously to study.
The accomplishments later developed
in the higher grades are painting,
physical culture, domestic science,
manual training, dramatic art, music
and field trips
Miss Martin spo,-e briefly of each of
these and of what they contribute to
the mental and physical development
Of the pupil. She made the point
clear that the ultimate use OF studies
and OF occupations is to fit the child
for life. In concluding her paper, she
said: Literature is an art as elus-
i've as moon shadows on still might.
1t must reflect life as the clear stream
carries on its waters the image of an
overhanging tree. It is sympathy,
humanity and an understanding OF life
that we need. Anyone can accumulate
facts in regard to life. but to know it.,
to fove it, to live it, one must feel its
beating pulse In literature and in all
these experiences, a little child shall
lead them"
Child's Religious Training.
The second paper of the afternoon
was given by Mrs. John P. Hornish,
Who spoke on the Religious Training Of
Children She said in part:
THE religious training Of the child
is peculiarly the parents duty and
privilege. If the common school is
Inadequate for his secular education,
certainly the Sunday school is not
sufficient for his religious training. In
our common schools the teachers are
more or less trained Tor their work, it
is a life occupation to them, means
to their daily bread. While alas the
army OF Sunday school teachers rs
made up from the rank OF tired and
worn mothers, fathers, or oyer-burden-
ed church workers, frequently thought
less, giddy young people, whose lives
in no way measure up to the standards
they teach Occasionally however, a
trained religious student is found
among the Sunday school teachers.
While most Sunday school teachers
betray a commenda ole zeal for their
work, and conventions and asso-
Citations have somewhat added to their
and equipment, yet 1t -e-
mains true that the teaching in the
Sunday school falls far below the
pedegogic standard. notwithstanding
the fact that the subject dealt with in
the Sunday school is Of pre-eminently
greater importance. In the limited
time allotted in the Sunday school, 1t
is impossible for the teacher to do
more than theorize; the young mind
needs more than that, 1t needs prac-
tice. Do not misunderstood me as
the Sunday school going
habit and the church going habit: they
are excellent habits to be formed in
childhood, but the religious education
must not stop there. The child should
be taught that the Bible is guide
book for life and that God is daily
factor in his life. Every child should
have his own individual Bible and your
child should be provided with illustrat.
