The Babcock boys lived in Burling-

father had been killed in battle.
Their mother died the year after.
They were orphans whom nobody
wanted. Too proud to become burs
dens on their relatives and too indie
pendent to go to any asylum, they
disappeared one day. Henry, 10 years
old, stayed In the statej Charley two
years younger, went west. For almost
thirty years notla word dldlOnesheRr

INTERESTING PAPER
Continued from Page Ten)

Persons with sputum, when they can
not or will not care for themselves in
their own homes, ought to be segregated
and isolated If any Roadway worthy the
name is to be made against one of the
worst scourges known to mankind. The
individual must be sacrificed for the type.
To strive to impress upon you the urgent
necessity of such a program have / con-
sented to appear before you this after
noon. 1t is the essential step in an anti
tuberculosis campaign. New York state
has taken it in most approved fashion
as follows: In 1909 law was passed in
New York state authorizing the estab-
lishment and maintenance in each county,
by It's board Of supervisors, Of its own
hospital for the tuberculous The New
York state department of health, in A.
junction with the State Charities Asso-
citation OF that commonwealth, has since
been striving to make this law effective
with gratifying results. Twenty-one coun.
ties have decided to build such instItu-
tons, some of which. indeed, are in oper-
alton: and it is hoped that by the end of
the present year 80 will be projected, rep
resenting action by more than half of the
counties in the state.

Music with Typewritine.

Music is to be used ins conjunction
with the typewriting work at Cony. for
the first time since the commercial de-
partment Of the school was established.
The idea behind 1t is not a new one,
for it has been successfully demon
strated in other schools and Is said to
en,body q scientific principle which
works out to the entire satisfaction Of
the teachers who have used the meth
Cd. The idea, briefly, is this: Music
stimulates motor activity and becomes
a factor in teaching all subjects in
volving physical response, and. through
the use Of the monograph, Is used to
produce even, controlled and effective
action in typewriting, penmanship. and
dictation.'
A selection is played on the Victrola
in minimum time; at given signal
from the teacher the class begins the
finger exercise, timing their strokes
with the rhythmic beat, or count, Of the
music. The stimulating force Of the
rythm tends to quicken the pulse beats
and to spur on the operator to try and
catch up" and to keep pace with the
rythmic beat Of the music. AS the ex-
ercise proceeds, the tear her may grad
ually quicken the time by slowly in
creasiuy the speed indicator of the ma
chine. 1t is claimed that the time and
energy usually devoted to the average
yearly course in typewriting may be
reduced 40 per cent and yet the same
proficiency be attained.
So the project is not in any sense an
experiment. the method has been sue
