Young PEOPLES EVENINGS.

Harm often comes from the too i'm
plicit faith which parents place in chill
dren's accounts of where their eve
nings are spent. To obviatc the US
by young people of the social centerS
in the schools as an excuse for their
absence from home when they have
leen elsewhere, the schools Of Milwau-
kee issue cards TO children of parents
who demand them. When the young
man or woman goes to the social CEN
ter the time of his or her entrance *
recorded on the card us are also the
time OF leaving and kindred data. In
this fashion parents are enabled 10
verify their children's assertions thai
they have spent an evening at n school
center.

EXPLAINS WARMTH OF WOOL
Superior to Linen Because It Is an
Animal Product and Also Has
Special Properties.

The main difference between wool
and linen is that wool is animal and
linen is vegetable. and that the fiber
of wool is irregular. while that Of
linen is straight and regular. When
the irregular fiber of the wool is woven
1t contains certain little cells which
hold neutral layer of air. The linen
has no such cells. This layer of air
which the cells make is like an in
visible coat that keeps the normal heat
Of the body from leaving 1t and which
at the same time keeps the atmnS-
phere which is colder than the body
temperature from entering II.
This layer of air Is. as some writer
has put 1t, little gaseous arnor.
II WOODEN yarn is rendered straight
and regular by some special treatment
In the mill, and Is woven like linen II
is only a very little warmer than linen.
That little is due to its being animal.
which has always more warmth 10 1t
than vegetable product.
