A cork on the end Of string which
is attached to stick is thrust in the
fire. When it catches fire it is time
the cork be withdrawn from the fire.
One boy blows out the flame. but
leaves the glowing end and passes it
to his chum at the right. eXclaiming,
Jacks alive" Then boy No. = re-
peatS the same thing, and SO ON.
As the bright end becomes duh the
boys pass it with greater haste. When
no amount Of blowing can produce the

Jack must submit to having the score
marked on his face-such as half of
mustachr, Il black eyebrow OF Il biz
black round mark on his cheek.
This is repeated ana 50 Oh many

public schools goes to educate repeat
ers. Fifty-three per cent, or more
than one-half of all children in Wiscon-
sin schools, are over age for the grade
in which they are working. Five out
of every eight children who enter the
first grade drop out before the compile
tion of the eighth.
These statements are contained in a
bulletin, Suggestive Studies of School
Conditions" issued by State Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction G. P.
Cary They may we'll give the people
of Wisconsin cause for thought. Doubt
less lack of cooperation, poor teaching
and poverty which leads children to
leave school to go to work, are respon-
sible in part, but there is another fac
tor the Importance of which is likely to
be der-estimated.
The search-light of medical inspec-
ton has revealed our schools to be filled
with children handicapped in body and
mind by physical defects. Such de-
| fects, reacting unfavorably upon the
mentality, cause retardation in school.
Lack of proper food, resulting in NAL
nutrition and aenemia, explains many
of the sick brains with which schoo
teachers impatiently struggle.

NOTWITHSTANDING the fact that
nearly every newspaper published con-
tains the announcement of one Or more
automobile accidents for which reck-
less driving is responsible, causing the
death and injury of any number of per-
sons, yet these accidents continue to
occur day after day, notwithstanding
the frequent warning that everyone
driving a car should take no chances
and practice safety first. Do you own
an automobile? If you do, have you
any assurance whatever when you start
from home that you will return home
without being seriously injured or even
killed? If this recklessness continues,
it will be as much as a mans life is
worth to travel any of the state high
ways in the near future. Who is to
blame, or what are we going to do
about it? If this recklessness cannot
be stopped by simple persuasion, the
law must be invoked and those who dis
regard sane driving and the safety of
others should be dealt with accordingly.
