The Penalty of Liberty.

In the matter of discipline John Rus
kin's mother was Spencerian before
Spencer. Let your penalties" says
that austere philosopher, "be like the
penalties inflicted by inanimate nature,
inevitable. The hot cinder burns a
child the first time he seizes it; 1t
burns him the second time; it burns
him every time; and he very soon
learns not to touch the hot cinder."
That was Mrs. Ruskin's method. To
illustrate her way of teaching lessons,
Ruskin used to tell the following incl
dent of his early childhood, which his
mother was fond of relating.
zone evening, when l was yet in my
nurses arms, / wanted to touch the
tea urn, which was boiling merrlly. 1t
was an early taste for bronzes, l sup
pose, but l was resOlute about it. My
mother bade me keep my fingers back;
insisted on putting them forward.
My nurse would have taken me away
from the urn, but my mother said:
"Let him touch it, nurse
$50 l touched it, and that was my
first lesson in the meaning of the word
liberty 1t was the first piece of lib
erty got, and the last that for some
time asked for."-Youth's Companion.

Americans are accustomed to say
that nothing can be really good that
does not show sense Of hTmOr.' A
person who, no matter what his de-
fects may be, has that frradiatfng light,
Is saved, and 1t is that quality
In book which we pick out
with perhaps the greatest approval.
But the serious ghetto is entirely lack
ing in the genial sense of humor,"
says Hutchins Hapgood in the Century.
"The Russian Jews do not know how
to play, either physically or intellec-
tually. There is no play in their art,
their literature, or their life. They
do not understand what is light and
graceful. Charm Of the mere evanes-
cent kind, the charm of the nuance, Is
lacking. The spirit and the art of
the Japanese are the opposite Of the
spirit and the art Of the ghetto Jew.
The young men Of the ghetto-thOse of
the intellectual type-pass their nights,
after working hard all day, In serious
conversation in which there is no
lightness or humot, although there
may be, and often is, sense of the in
congruous or OF the ridiculous"

AIRPLANE AND CAVALRY MEET
Allied Filler Escapes Capture by Charg.
ing Foes and Passing Short Dis
tance over Their Heads.

To show that it is sometimes pos
sible for an aviator to pass surprising
ly low over guns and yet escape being
brought to earth, Mr. Claude Grahame-
White cites In Heroes Of the Flying
Corps" an interesting encounter be-
tween an airplane and squad of cav
airy. One of the aviatOrs Of the allies,
descending near some German out
posts, was surprised by a patrol of hos
tile cavalry that gallOped into a corner
Of the field where the airplane had
alighted and rode full tilt toward 1t to
make it's occupants prisoners.
At the side Of the field farthest from
the Germans lay wood; and the space
between the airplane and the trees was
so small that the machine could not
rise into the air in that direction. All
that the pilot could do in his endeavor
to escape was to run his machine
across the ground directly toward the
horsemen and seek to rise
sufficiently high TO sweep above their
heads. He took his machine abruptly
into the air and flew down straight
toward them. thinking that his chance
was poor, and expecting either to be
struck himself by bullets or to have
some vital part Of his machine hit.
There was one point in his favor,
however: the German cavalrymen, ta-
ken by surprise when the aircraft
came rushing toward them, had
opened fire in a scattering and very
haphazard manner. Only just above
their heads, although travelling very
fast, swept the airplane, with It's pilot
and passenger crouching low in their
seats. Over the cavalrymen 1t few and
then 1t began to climb rapidly; and
although a storm of bullets had met 1t
as 1t approached and had been directed
on 1t while it passed overhead, the
craft flew on unchecked. No vital part
of its mechanism was hit, nor were its
occupants injured. - Youths Com

seIf-Hypnotism Nearly Fatal.

Records for keen imaginationS were
shattered In the case of Edward Cor
rigan, who almost succeeded in killing
himself with thought, Los Angeles
dispatch says.
COrrigan Is a young engineer and
had been going with girl, with whom
he had quarreled. 1.-THE end will come
In couple of hours" he said In sep
ulchral tones. Shortly afterwards he
was found in bed in comatose condi-
ton, and when his folks entered the
room he asked for priest to admins
ter the last rites.
Police Surgeon Zorb made a minute
examination and thought Corrigan had
taken poison. His eyes were dilated
and his outward condition indicated
poisonous symptoms. Treatment ap-
piled caused Doctor Zorb and other ex-
perts called in to believe that the case
was one of self-hypnotism causd by
mental depression. When Corrigan
returned to his senses in the hospital
he broke out in tears, saying he was
despOndent over his broken love affair

A sinnlficant Survey.

One of the most significant educa-
tional surveys yet conducted in this
country is the one planned for Indian
apolis. 1t will include the first inten-
sive investigation Of social and eco
nomic conditions of graduates from
public trade schools ever made in the
United States. The data on this point
will be used to determine whether the
graduates of trade schools have made
as much progress in life as the gradu-
ates of the academic schools. The re-
port will be presented to the National
Society for the Promotion of Indus
trial Education and will form the basis
of action by that body in making it's
recommendations on the preparation
of students for their life work in the
high school instead of in college.

selecting the style of roof for the
buildings of the group, the barn which
is to have q hay NOV should govern
the decision. This building should have
roof which will provide the largest
possible haymow volume for every
square foot Of ground covered by the
building, under ordinary circumstances.
There might be conditions such that a
large haymow would be unnecessary In
any of the buildings and then the style
Of roof would be wholly matter of
personal taste, based on appearance
only. Assuming that the large NOW is
necessary, however, the following facts
are considered: The gable roof pro-
vides the least volume Of any Of the
three types mentioned for a given
height. The gambrel roof furnishes
larger volume for the given height and
the gothic roof gives the largest volume
Of the three types.
The gable roof has no particular adj
vantages from the structural stand
point other than the fact that its con-
