the social instinct of the species has
its highest expression in the winter
roosts. which are sometimes frequent

From these roosts daily flights OF
many miles are made in search OF
food. Injury to sprouting corn is the
most frequent complaint against this
species, but by coating the seed grain
with coal tar most of this damage may
be prevented. Losses of poultry and
eggs may be averted by proper housing
and the judicious use of wire netting

 When child lacks courage or judg- ment or Knowledge or wisdom. we are wont to deal with him gently. We try to point out to him better means of attaining these desirable things; but let him lack truth in his verbal statements, let him tell a lie." as we say, and instead of helping him with patience and wisdom to a better attainment of that most supremely desirable thing, truth. we frighten him with an evil dence of our moral horror of his fail- ure, and deal out punishment to him.
 By all these means it seems to me we belittle and stunt his idea of a most glorious thing; we deprive him of a most radiant and lovely companion ship; we rob him of an ideal, the beauty and splendor of which is not outvied by arg other ideal whatsoever. Under our teaching the child begins to think of truth largely as mere truth of statement and a devotion to 1t as something required and exacted of him by arbitrary grown-ups It is only very rarely that he gets under our tutelage a sense of truth as shining and glorious presence, to walk beside whom and to be worthy of such companion ship is one of the noblest privileges and destinies open to man.
 All this is because we are so apt to try to teach truthfulness by negative means, Nine mothers out of 10, 1t seems, try to teach the child the beauty of truthfulness by dwelling with sor- row or horror on the fearfulness of a
