Frances Nash to Glue Her Recital
: Next Sunday at Metropolitan Hall
Distinguished Young Pianist
Will Play Again for the
Home Folks After
Eastern Tour.

Frances Nash, the charming young
Omaha pianist, whose repeated and
notable successes distinguished her
first season in her native country,
will be heard in concert at the Metro
politan hall, December 10.
One of Miss Nash's critics says:
"Her whole soul is poured out at the
ends OF her fingers" and so when we
really analyze the tests that have de-
veloped her character. we find that
music has proved to her intense ma
ture a soul release, an outlet to bright
skies.
Early European successes did not
disturb the sincerity or depth of Miss
Nash's purpose, but instead spurred
her on to greater effort and longer
periods of study. Even her brilliant
second seasons bookings were not so
much regarded as. compliment, but
rather as an opportunity, another
chance to prove, and, accordingly, her
summer vacation was spent with her
practice schedule undisturbed."
A recent review of one of her east
ern appearances with the New York
Philharmonic orchestra says: "One
did not expect such attainment from
so young all artist, to whom we
could scarcely attribute the strength
of soul and body for such effects"

LAGS IN VITAL STATISTICS
United States Far Behind More Pro-
uressiVe Foreign Countries In Sys-
TEN of Preserving Records.

The United States has Jagged far be-
hind the more progressive foreign coun-
tries in the matter Of maintaining re-
liable records of births, deaths and
sickness, says Uncle Sam. However,
there has been In recent years a
marked increase in the interest taken
by state and municipal authorities in
the recording of vital statistics. The
greatest difficulty in obtaining any
thing like a uniform system has been
the fact that under the constitution
the registration of vital records must
be left to the individual state govern
ments.
"The difficulty in obtaining proper
registration of vital statistics Is not in
most cases due so much to absolute
lack Of legislative provision for regis
tratiOn as to the inadequacy OF the
laws or the failure to enforce them,"
says a bulletin of the bureau Of the
census. "Much progress, however, has
been made in recent years. In 1900
no two states employed uniform blanks
for recording either deaths or births /;
but at present what is known as the
standard death certificate has been
adopted or approved by states repre-
senting nearly SO per cent, and the
standard birth certificate by states rep
resenting approximately 85 per cent, of
the total population Of the country.
"Those who view with apprehension
the decline in the American birth rate
may take comfort from the fact that
the births in this country are still far in
excess of the deaths. The excess is
probably as great as 30 per cent, and
may be even more, but its not pos
sible yet to estimate 1t with any de-
gree Of precision. The population OF
the United States would, therefore
show healthy increase from decade
to decade, if the present birth and
death rates were to remain substantial
ly unchanged, even though immigra'
ton should cease entirely"
The Greenville journal. [volume] (Greenville, Ohio) 1850-1918, 1916-08-24

ting excited over it. Didn't we all do
the same thing when we were young?
Or at least we were all tempted to,
and If we did not yield 1t was just our
good fortune and not our superior vir-
tue. Besides, its the sort of thing
child will do just because he is a
child. When he gets to be as old as
we are he won't be tempted to go down
to the lake. Remember that boys will
be boys. Give him chance to grow
up and he'll be all right.
This did not sound so heroic, but it
did seem reasonable. After all, day
out of school breathing the fresh air
and taking good exercise won't hurt
any boy. He could make up his school
work just as easily as though he had
been absent on account of sickness,
and this was better than sickness.
Thousands of boys play 'hooky" and
then grow up to be decent citizens
some of them even become teachers or
ministers. Let him alone, and he'll
grow up all right.
Young Blank, whose children had
not yet reached the age of truancy,
was interested, but bewildered. He
had expected to lay up supply Of

Forest Notes
(From U. s. Forest SerVIee.)

There are 592 consumers Of tannin
In the United States who use annually,
625,000 cords of hemlock bark, 100000
cords of oak bark, and $4,000 cords of
chestnut wood.
Experts Of the forest service esti-
mate that the farm wood lots Of the
United States contain from 200 to 300
billion board feet of lumber and from
one to one and a half billion cords Of
wood.
All Of the 20 counties of Utah con-
tain portions of national forests, and
consequently all share In the % per
cent Of the national forest receipts
which Is paid over to the road and
school funds. This is true Of no other
state.
One hundred thirty thousand maps
of the national forests have been dis
trlbuted to tourists this summer. These
maps show the best camp sites, good

HIS MOTHER CAME FIRST
Fiancee Of Illinois MiIitiaman Had to
Wait Outside the Camp
Grounds.

While the mobilization Of a certain
Illinois regiment was under way wom-
en- in the persons Of relatives and
friends Of the Guardsmen flOcked to
the camp in such numbers that neceS-
sary work was hampered. Thereupon
it is reported, the colonel issued Or
ders that only one woman should be
allowed to visit each member of the
regiment.
One Of the Guardsmen, not yet
knowing of the order, approached the
camp in company with his mother, a
sister and his fiancee. The guard
stopped the party and sternly asked
who the women were. When told he
answered:
"You can take in only one. It's up
to you to choose"
The young man looked for a mo-
ment at the three, and then said,
mother"
When war is in the air humanity
gets down to fundamentals, and when
| this is done mother will never get
the worst Of it. We do not believe
that the young Guardsman will make
a worse husband than If he had chosen
his sweetheart. A man who can ap-
preciate his mother may be expected
to take good care of his wife.

childish impulses, but what will take
their placer One Of the ways in
which the grOwn-ups acquired that
feeling of righteousness in the pres
ence of childish misdeeds was through
the impressive indignation of their
parents on the occasions of their own
childish errors. 1t may be wrong for
Saffron to put so much stress upon
the wickedness Of truancy, but it is
just as wrong to evade the issue and
treat it like teething, as something
that will pass away was something
else to do besides whipping children
Brown needed to learn that there was
something to do.
AS we become more and more famil-
lar with the development Of the child's
mind we realize that many Of the
symptoms that are so alarming to 9TH
ers are in no way Indications of de-
pravity. But there is the danger that
in learning this we may become in
different to all symptoms. A child
is to be watched and understood; this
will avoid frequently the resort to
violence. But he is to be understood
and helped; this will save US fire.
uuently from the sin of omission.
We must know not merely enough
to improve on the methods Of revenge
and penalty; we must know enough to
evolve a positive program of construc'
tive assistance to the child at every
point at which his instincts conflict
with the requirements of the world to
which he must adjust himself.

PLAYING Ho0KY WON'T HURT
Parent Who Remembers How Things
Used to Feel ls One Who
Knows How to Manage
His Boy.
By sIpoNIE M. oRUENsERe.


A T THE club Jones was reading the
"A paper to himself and making COM
ments to all within hearing. Suddenly
he sat up and put down the paper.
"Was that WaIte's boy" he asked,
"that was mixed up In that affair
down at the lakeT No one seemed to
know. Didn't even know there had
been an affair. In that case Jones had
to read to them. It was the story Of
a boy who had gone over the edge Of
a pier and was pulled out by another
boy who happened to be passing. The
boy who happened to be passing
was young Bob, and he happened along
at a time when he was supposed to
be in school. That was the point. AL
though no one denied that it was emil
nently proper for him to jump into the
water and save the ragged stranger,
all were agreed that he had no busi-
ness there. He was obviously playing
truant.
IF a boy of mine did that" said
Saffron, I'D let him take all the
medals and fine speeches that were
coming to him, and after the celebra'
ton was all over l would take him
Into the woodshed and give him the
worst licking of his young life"
That sounded very heroic and very
reasonable. After all, it's wicked tc
play truant. 1t was only a lucky
chance that the boy came along II
time to save the other child-perhaps
this one had been a truant also. The
chances were even that another time
he'd got run over by fire engine. The
boys place is in the school, and h'
had no business along the lake front
He needed a lesson that. would teact
him his place.
1t made Saffron real angry to thinl
of a son of his committing an Outrage
upon law and morals. And the thing
he had In mind to do were-well, the!
were Just the expressions Of his anger
They were not thought out policies o
applying force where 1t would do tn
most good. They were the instinctiv
appeals to violence, and had just abOu
as much moral value as BOb's ow
dereliction.
And Brown, who had not been say
ing anything, could see that. And 6
he Joined the conversation. He wOul
not approve of truancy. He knew
was bad thing and liable to lead t
worse things. But there's no use ge
