The mother of small children who

dergarten need not feel compelled
to deprive her little ones OF the
training. 1t is true that the stimu-
lus of cooperative work and play,
so vital feature Of the kindergar-
ten, is not so apt to be found in the
smaller group at home and is en-
tirely lacking in the case OF the only
child. Nevertheless, many OF the
activities provided in kindergarten
can be carried on not only by the
small group but by the lonely child
as well.
Come let us live with our chill
dren" is the old familiar Frocbclian
slogan. We might paraphrase it by
saying, Come, let us sing with our
children!'
Why shouldn't children sing
morning greetings to father and
mother as well as to teacher? Even
two-ycar-olds that | know can sing
them and delight in doing so. The
good morning songs to various
members of the family to the new
day, to sun or clouds, sung while
dressing, do much to create a sun
ny morning atmosphere. There are
songs to accompany many of the
home duties, besides a wealth o.
nature songs. At bedtime the de
votional spirit Of the evening pray
er may be enhanced by the sing
ing of a child's hymn. Songs sucl
as these can be found in Game
and Music of Froebel's Mothe
Play and in other kindergarten
song books. Any good librar,
would have some Of these, or i
would be possible to buy copie
through a bookstore.

GERMAN DEMANDS HEAVIER
Take the Fortified Part of the
Black Sea.

Petrcgrad, March 8 (Sunday).-I
In the fear that argument would |
result in even more onerous terms, |
the Russian delegation at Brest
Litovsk has accepted all the Ger
man peace conditions and is about
to sign an agreement, according to
a telegram from the delegates re-
ceived today at the Smolny lnSti-
tute.
The demands already have been
increased, they reported.
The message, which was adj
dressed to Premier Lenine and For
eign Minister Trotzky, follows:
AS we anticipated, deliberations
on a treaty OF peace are absolutely
useless and could only make things
worse in comparison with the ulti-
matum of February q. They might
even assume the character of lead
ing to the presentation of another
ultimatum.
Sign Without Discussion.
'In view of this fact and in con-
sequence OF the German refusal to
cease military action until peace is
signed, we have resolved to sign the
treaty without discussing its con-
tents and leave after we have at
tached our signatures. We, there
fore, have requested a train, expect
ing to sign today and leave alter
wards.
The most serious feature OF the
new demands compared with those
of Feb. p is the following:
"ro detach the regions of Kara
band, Kars and Batoum from Rus
sian territory on the preteNt of the
right OF people to self-determina-
ton
In Interest of Turkey.
The new territorial claims upon
Russia are apparently advanced in
the interest of Turkey, Batoum, a
strongly fortified seaport on the
Black Sea coast, in Trans-Caucasia
about 20 miles north of the border
of Turkish Armenia, was one of the
cities cedcd by Turkey to Russia
after the RuSsia-Turkish war o.
1879.
Kars, also in Trans-Caucasia, 10;
miles northeast OF Ehzerum il
Turkish Armenia, has been in dis
pute between the Turks and tn,
Russians for nearly a century anC
finally was ceded to Russia at tn,
same time as was Batoum. Th,
other region mentioned probably i
that of Karabagh, Trans-Caucasia
lying to the east of the Kars regioi
, and north of the Persian border.

meeting win be held at the Cosy the
ater at p. m. Friday Mr.. Bald
win of the bureau of markets in Port
land is here today in connection with
the meeting.
The investigations OF the depart
ment have developed the fact that
the grain dust explosion problem has
not been thoroughly understood by
many millers, elevator operators and
threshing machine men. AS a result
certain practices are now being car
ried on which are felt to be danger
Gus and which may cause extensive
grain damage by fire or explosions. a
number of very disastrous fires and
explosions have occurred during the
past year. many if not all of which
could have been prevented.
