HO HUM :! THERE'S
 THE SUPPER BELL
Tired Lot of Children Lay Aside Rakes and Hoes Every Day
 at the C11ildren's Home.

Supper-time is a sleepy time these days at the Babies House of tho
 Children's Home. The little tots come in to their supper tired and hungry from their work in the gar- den. Work! you exclaim in horror. We'll. they do work, just like beavers. The matron cannot keep them from it. It seems as if they reasoned ] that. gardening being the rage at present, they. too would go at 1t heart and soul. Sometimes the ar- dor of these little folks between three and eight years of age worries Miss Larson bit, but if all play is sim- ply imitation of something already observed. the children may as. we'll initiate gardeners as anything else. How they do labor! One lad stag gers about for short intervals with
 g wheelbarrow, that gives him great
 Joy. Another comes into port with cargo of weeds on a tiny cart. An- other conveys load of stones toward the ash pile. not dropping more than half on the way if he has good luck. An energetic lad is practically going over the lawn with a fine tooth comb since he searched around the cellar. and made the glorious discovery of 8 handleless iron rake with which to curry the grass. One little girl who has all the characteristics of Mary. Mary quite contrary. Is searching for angle worms over by the fence whore the peas are sprouting. Another is trying to keep the ants from tickling Q shrub, while two more look on and yearn for the rain to stop for . good long time, so that they can use a fascinating sprinkling can. Toy dogs and cats and few dollies are brought out for companionship amid all this toll.
 If a sympathetic visitor appears on visiting day the little gardeners cheer fully throw down their tools and gather In group to sing . few songs. for all the world like the double quartet in the Old Homestead. One wee urchin bored by all this nonsense solemniy leaves the ranks, picks out the cart that attracts him most, and disappears around the corner with 1t. But the rest of them love to sing and recite. and mercy what long memories they have!
 Much space has been given over to this spring, and older boys work here to excellent advantage under direc- ton. but the little tots with their imitation gardening. are most beguil- ing.

Dauphin County Court
Highly COmplimented on
Its Election Decisions

The Philadelphia North American,
commenting to-day upon the decision
of the State Supreme Court upholding
the nominations of the reform, or
town meeting, candidates in Phila-
delphia, has this to say of the cleo
tion decisions of the Dauphin county
having rendered decisions upon which
the Philadelphia cases were decided.
TT may also be said that such
rights as independents now possess
are due very largely to the uniformly
fair Interpretation of the election
laws by the Dauphin county court.
This court is the first appeal tribunal
in election law cases ,and it's DEGREES
have powerful weight. throughout
the state. Had it not been for those
decisions, the political contractor in
forests probably would have found
judges ready to make Independent or
fusion movements quite impossible in
Philadelphia.
THE promoters of the murder
ticket" had no desire to have their
case reviewed by the Dauphin county
court, and therefore timed their ac-
tribunal a physical impossfbility, a
purpose revealed by the prolonging
of the hearing before Judge Davis.
The whole framework of the Town
Meeting cases rested on points of
law outlined by Judges Kunkel and
McCarrell whose election decisions
have been regarded as not only fair
but beyond successful attack in court
