The Gentle Art of Kidding.

From the Detroit Journal.
It's a great American pastime-this
kidding business. 1t has taken the
place of the old-time practical joke.
which was rarely a joke and never
practical A popular form of kidding
consists of sending unwilling ap-
prentices for left-handed monkey
wrenches and of describing to the I'M
knowing some plausible. but unreal
happening. More popular than this
is the kind of kidding that makes
stock Of some accidental remark or
action and proceeds to remind the
victim Of it on every possible occa-
sion.
kidding rarely does harm in small
doses, in spite of the fact that it dis
plays a little meanness in the natures
of those Of us who do it. There is
something unworthy in holding the
magnifying glass to our fellowman's
defects even in jovial manner, un-
less our purpose is correction and
betterment. 1t is when kidding Is
it creates irritation that may not
easily e~cured
In spite of the faults of kidding it
is an index of humanness. When we
cannot be kidded at all it is high time
to examine ourselves and see if we
own worth. The chagrin that comes
at being kidded is some index that
the person still has the ability to see
his own faults-a most hopeful sign.
The man who can't take a joke, can't
be joshed or kidded has reached an
intellectual and moral deadline that
is unfortunate, for it is all too likely
impossible.
If you are one who likes to kid
others beware their tenderest feelings
in your sport. If you are one who is
sometimes kidded remember that it is
a test-tube of character if you will
read with care your own reaction

TEACHERS WILL TAKE UP
PROPOSED PAY INCREASE
Provisions in D. G. Appropriation
Bill to Be Discussed at Meet
ing This Afternoon.

A lively discussion Of the increases
in pay for school teachers, recon-
mended in the revised District bill,
made public yesterday. is expected to
be the feature Of 4 meeting of the
High School Teachers Union in the
Mckinley Manual Training School at
o'clock this afternoon.
Miss Alice Deal, president of the
union, said this morning that while
she had not been able to make a close
study of the bill. 1t did not appear
on the surface to be satisfactory.
These new recommendations are
not as much as we got from the
Senate at the last session." Miss Deal
stated. I'VE probably will talk it
over at our meeting this afternoon"
The question of reclassification of
positions and salaries of teachers
also is likely to be discussed at the
Miss Alice Wood, the western
High School teacher who was sus-
pended by the school board for one
week for alleged indiscretion in
teaching current topics, discussed
her case With her former school
mates at the annual meeting Of the
Boucher College alumni in Baltimore
Saturday.
Miss Wood said her classmates did
not take any formal action, feeling
that it would be unnecessary. now
that the dispute has been put up to
the District Supreme Court.

O Tempora! o Mores!
From the Chicago Tribune.

from the ChlcdEo tribune.
Charles Dickens found us a nation
of quid shutters awarding the laurel
wreath to the one among US who
could most neatly hit the bulrs-eye
of tin spittoon at twenty yards. He
saw our greatest delight in the
'ping!" Of brass cuspidor.
Since Dickens there has been
scarcely moment when Great Brit

feur elopes with an heiress; ergo. we
are a nation of chauffeurs clipping
with nation of heiresses. A strange
murder occurs; we are nation or
strange murderers. A wolf strays into
Butte. Mont: we are a nation Of
Leatherstockings.
The British press thrives on such
from America. On the other hand,
we are stated with the doings of duke
and earls and what not. England
keeps old John Bull face to the front
with gorgeous waistcoat and a mob
by hat: we never get chance to see
the hole in the seat of his breeches.
And yet he is always slipping around
behind US and embarrassing us.
The British literary notion of Amer

Hanksville the Remote.
From the New YORK Sun.

From the New York Sun.
A Utah subscriber writes to the Out
look to claim for his state. with melan
choly pride, the distinction Of having
the most out-of-the-way place in the
United States. Huntsville, in wayne
county. is the town name. Travel
ers approach 1t only from the west,
and, once there, further progress is
impossible except to the venturesome.
To the north are desert and noun
tain; Eastward are the Orang cliffs,
unbroken except where Dirty Devil
river pours into the Colorado. To
the south are Mount Ellen and other
giants Of the Henry mountains.
Hanksville IL only sixty miles from
Green river. but a letter sent from
one town to another passes through
the hands Of three star route con-
tractors and is sixteen days on the
way. SO circuitous is the journey
around the mountains. The nomina-
tor of Huntsville for the lonesome
honors boasts that most mail wrap
pers are worn of before they finish
the trip.

The cat had been in a fight with

Get Into the Game.

From Leslie's.
Life is like a game of cards. Some
must win. Some must lose. 1t all
depends upon the player and on the
gambling chances that may favor or
disappoint him.
All have the same gambling chance.
50 the players ability really deter
mines whether he shall be loser or
a winner. Assiduity. persistence. prac-
tice and patience all help to make him
a winner, and the lack of these a loser.
Those who win make their gains at
the expense of those who lose. There
must always be winners and losers.
the winners rejoicing and the losers
disappointed. complaining and jealous
of the winners.
How much like the experience of
everyday life. Some succeed because
of their diligence, earnestness and
ceaseless ambition, others lose because
of the lack of these winning qualities.
Some live in well deserved ease and
comfort on the proceeds of their sue
cess, others in discomfort, proclaiming
that they suffer from injustice.
Everybody must play the game OF
life, and, like the game of cards. in
the end every gamester must be a
loser. Only the Grim Reaper Is sure
to be the winner in the end.

Qualification cards are being turned
IN today for the match play rounds
in the June tournament to be held

Club. Players will be divided into
two flights of sixteen each. Three
fourths of the difference in the club
handicaps of the competing players
will be allowed in the match play
rounds.

appointed pro at the Chevy Chase
Club, has assumed his new duties at

CESS, who will leave today or tomor-
row for Asheville, n. c., there to
take the place Of Charlie Reynolds
as resident professional.
Although White is not so good
player as Burgess. he is noted as a
fine instructor and has done much in
a constructive way among the pro-
fessionals. He has been head of the
pro body for the past two years and
has had a great deal to do with bring
ing about certain reforms in the pro-
fessional ranks.
White will make a very able man

Charles H. Doing. jr.. and Charles
G. Duganne of the Washington Golf
and Country Club had fine little
scheme cooked up to win some golf
balls given as prizes in the miniature
tournament held at that club last
Friday. Doing won the qualifying
round and Duganne was in the sec
ond flight, so they agreed that if one
of them won either flight they would
split the prize, thereby insurfng each
man of some share in the prize. But
Doing was beaten in the first round,
as was Duganne, and so the little plot
came to naught.
