Now, teachers always tell che truth, %
this particular teacher had 20 keep the
little girl out Of the Training School,
no matter how much IL hurt her TO
do so. But "tsrdiness" isn't quite
enough Of q SIN 70 keep q girl from
becoming q teacher, according to the
rules; and, besides that, somebody had
found out that this little girl had 10
help a sick and overworked mother at
homs before she came TO school.
But the teacher had said that this
girl could not 90 70 the Training
School, and she was very good teach
or. So she hunted up all the little
wrong things the girl had ever done,
and she found three. Rather small,
uncertain and nearly two years old,
but a charge of "untrustworthy" was
made against the girl, and there II
stands on her record ut the beginning
Of her career.

When children travel they are apt
TO become restless. They need some
thing to divert them, something TO look
forward to. Now when families are
starting of on the trip TO Southern re-
sorts care must be taken that the small

Proper Things at Improper Time.

Proper Things at Improper Time
This was Just the idea the teacher
had In mind, and Of course the boys
answer pleased her. When she saw the
child's mother a few days later she told
her Of the incident, and then the
mother was also pleased, for, as she
said. she had always tried to teach liar
vey that most Of the things he did were
not wrong, but that he sometimes dio
perfectly proper things at the wrong
tim, or In the wrong place. She was
rl.ased 70 think that her teaching had
borne fruit.
Little Ruth, who threw her brothers
new baseball about until 1t went crash
ing through the window, was really a
very nice little girl, and no wicked
thought had ever entered her head.
She admired her big brother and his
friends. and II was natural for her TO
initiate what she had seen them do.
There Is no disputing the damage done
20 the window. But this damage was
hardly compensated by the damage
done TO Ruth by the scolding she re-
ceived for her "naughtiness." II win
dows and bric-A-brac we're saved from
future destruction at the hands Of

a child to do any Of these things, but
there liz a time and n place for all Of
them. 1t Is necessary for US to teach
the child which Is the right time and
which is the right place. and 1t is also
necessary for US 10 make sure that the
child is provided with an opportunity
TO apply this principle-that Is, there
must be place where he can do al
most anything that his impulses call
for, and there must be time for the
free play of his impulses. Then we
shall be In a position TO direct as TO
what may or may not properly be done
in the home or in the school.
A seven-year-old boy who had started
to make something with his mechanical
construction outfit just before bedtime
was told that he could finish Il In the
morning before going to school. In the
morning, however, he played with his
brother and sister until II was time to
leave. He felt that he was entitled TO
redeem the promise made him the even
ing before for a chance TO finish his
construction. His father said 70 him:
you used up your building time for
playing. When you use time for any
thing II Is gone, and you cannot use it
again for anything else"
"You Are Making Me Waste Time"
Nothing moro was said at the time,
but week or two later the boy called

A more elaborate box, fitted up las
summer for a girl of ten, contained ar
assortment of square and fat pack
ages, including a little camera, q
leather sewing kit, an art game, 9
package of drinking cups, all packed
into an attractive dark blue leather
travelling case. The instructions for
opening the several boxes were in
quaint rhyme.
In planning a Surprise travel box,
the gift for the first day or hour, might
be box of minis or nuts, for the sec.
., ond an amusing game. Another pack.
age might reveal a notebook and set OF
sharpened pencils. SO small a thing
as pair of blue linen bean bags
monogrammed in white, would help af-
ford some fun on the deck of q

For the single gift, one can think up
no end of things sure to be a source of
entertainment to a child. The folding
animals, which fit into bag resembling
a Noah's ark, are worth while. An as
sortment of colored beads and a few
coarse threaded needles amused little
girl all the way to California last win
ter, while fancy sewing bag, a spool
of crochet silk and crochet hook was
another happy inspiration. Now that
knitting is so much in vogue. any little
girl traveller would delight in won
der ball." which Is large ball of col
ored yarn. As 1t is being knitted up
it reveals favors which, of course, can
not be obtained until the yarn is
wound off.
There are all sorts Of clever books
which are instructive as we'll as anus
ing. Those with all the colored house
furnishings, to be copied on the oppo-
site pages from the original, are good.
With this book Is a box of crayons.
Then there are similar, bird, flower and
animal books, which would make SUIT
able travel gifts.
Japanese Flower Seeds Which Expand.
When starting on q trip, no matter
how short, the fsrseeing mother or
nurse should remember to take along
some Of the Japanese flower seeds,
which, when put into water, spring into
blossom. A pair of blum. scissors, an
assortment OF pictures, a blankbook
and q tube Of glue is another sugges-
ton for an inexpensive remembrance.
II Is most often not the costly toy or
trinket that gives the most enjoyment
Any child starting of on q trip
would appreciate 4 small leather port
folio to At into the travelling case, and
would like 70 find a fountain pen, a
book Of postage stamps and several
postal cards done up In an attractive
package, with & box Of bonbons. No
matter how expensive the gift, one
must remember that pretty ribbons,
paper and general wrappings will play
q large part In the pleasure the gift
brings 20 the little traveller.

The history Of those States where
women vote shows that every one OF
them has certain rights and laws for

denied the privilege of voting. This
Is especially true in reference TO
school laws and child labor, to say
nothing of laws on subjects of pccu-
liar interest to women.
The chief argument is that women
do not want to vote. This is on a par
with that other threadbare and false
argument that prohibition does not
prohibit. OF course all women will not
vote. any more than all men do not
vote. but why should those who wish
to vote be deprived OF the right be-

THE WAREHOUSE BILL /,

Representative George Warren, ono
OF the youngest members OF the House
OF Representatives, mas gotten into
the public eye by the bill he has in
troduced into the House to repeal the
act passed last year to create state
cotton warehouse system. MIR. Warren
thinks the, powers granted the ware
house commissioner are being used
to build up political machine In the
State. and az such ie is opposed to
further appropriations for carrying on
this policy. His view is held by q great
number of representative men from
all sections of the State. and the out-
come OF the matter will be watched
with interest.
The News and Courier has the fol-
lowing TO say. about. this bill:
;Itis pu2sling that there should have
been an unfavorable committee report
on Representative Warren's bill to
peal the act passed at the extraprdf-
nary session last fail for the 5crsa-
tson OF q State cotton warehouse sys-
tenn! aoii,3. yls1ss .,49' i,>,4sys,
The State warehouse commissioi,er
has reported to the General Assem-
bly, that an appropriations aofs eS127,.
SS765 IL necessary for sthe continun-
tion and development OF the system.
We do not believe that the. public fa-
iyors for a moment snch an extracrd-
mary expenditure under existing con.
ditione. What the people expect OF the
General Assembly Ia that It shall do
everything In It's power 20 reduce pub.
lie expenses SO that II possible the
tax levy may be decreased.
The State cotton warehouse system
will not be worth anything unless 1t 81
literally financed The State In not
In position TO do this. Besides. 1t has
not been established that private capt.
tai is not amply able to meet the eitu-
alton.
