What is Your Child Learning?

Much of child's earliest education
often the most valuable and most en-
during part, is that which is uncons.
ciously acquired at home, not by pre-
cept or teaching but by imitation
From the earliest beginnings of learn
ing the child is copying the sights and
sounds about him.
Thus he learns to speak his first
words, and from this time until he be
gins his formal education in school
and indeed through his entire child
hood, he is initiating the language
manners, and emotions of the older
people about him. His behavior and
opinions are undoubtedly to some ex.
tent the direct result Of this copying
OF his elders. He will repeat the
tricks of spc e-h and manner which
they constantly employ.
II child lives among people whose
language is correct and agreeable,
whose manners are pleasant, who
show always a thoughtful considera.
ton for others and whose behavior is
gentle and kindly, he unconsciously
acquires similar ways. The habit of
courtesy comes not alone nor chiefly
from direct instruction, but from imi-
tation. If child sees that his elders
are habitually courteous in their AS.
ISOLATION with each other, II kindness
and consideration for each ot...r are
the habits of the home, these qualities
will inevitably stamp themselves upon
the child. Good manners are an In.
valuable asset to every person, but
good manners have their root and
foundation in fine qualities of mind
and heart, and only the constant daily
exercise of them will help give the
children that charm Of manner which

T THREATEN RAID ON
PRIVATE COAL BINS
TO PREVENT HORDING

Washington, ID. c., Nov 5-Tht
United States fuel administration
threatened today to make a raid on
private bins and to redistribute Goa
unless the practice OF boarding is
stopped.
1.-The production of anthracite coal
for the present year will be 10 pei
cent. in excess of the production for
l9le,' the fuel administration says IL
4 formal statement The demand Is
also greater Figures are not avail
able as to the increase OF production
in bituminous. but the total tonnage
viii be in excess of last years ou,
put
1T would appear, therefore, that
any shortage of domestic coal would
show hoarding-a practice the fuel adj
ministration strongly discourages as
being matter difficult to deal with,
and regards such action as unneces-
vary, unwise, and unpatriotic in this
EN- Urgency.
IF the practice is INDUCED in to an
xtent as to cause the redistribution
of coal, the matter will receive prompt
cons ideration, and such action as may
be necessary to the general good will
be taken"
The fuel administration has infor'
ma ton and is conducting general in
auiry in the direction of storing coal
by Industrial concernes and manufac.
turing Establishments.
Unless there Is cooperation of both
shippers and consumers. the fuel ad.
warns that II may be
necessary to take drastic action in
the direction of suspending shipments
to such plants"
The fuel administration also today
proposes a great harvest of natural
ice this winter as a means of saving
coal. Fifteen million tons OF coal are
used annually in American ice manu-
facturing plants. Billions of tons OF
ice are available in rivers and
streams every winter, much of which
Is wasted.

SOME FAMOUS BATTLE CRIES

Among Others there Is the gallant
cry of "Stlck it, Welsh, !" uttered BY
the late Captain Haggard, which has

Langdale, whilst encouraging his
men with the gallant cry Of "Come on,
the Lecest ershires !" fell on the field.
But the Leicestershires did "come on"
with disastrous results to the Huns.
We must not forget, however, that
famous cry Of "Kamerad!" uttered by
whole German regiments, which has
