GROVER CLEVELAND

The anniversary of the birth OF
Grover Cleveland follows closely that
of Saint Patrick. The latter is sup
posed to have been born on March II,
while the late President first saw the
light of day on March Is. If he were
living today he would be 50 years
old. There will be the usual annual
commemoration at one Of the theatres
in New York.
The New York Times makes this
the text for d fine and appreclative
editorial upon Nh. Cleveland, who
was a truly great man, and one OF
the ablest and most fearless OF our
Presidents. Like Andrew jackson, he
was three times a candidate for the
Presidency and twice elected. he
was twice elected because tnc
people had confidence in him. lie was
thrice nominated, not because the
statesmen and politicians who CON
trolled the national conventions loved
HIM. but because they were forced by
public sentiment to nominate MN!
an, they were impcllcd to it also by
Ike conviction tina: he was the only
available Democrat who could DC
elected.
Mr.. Cleveland did that which h
thought, ii his duty to do without any
regard to the consequences wh!cf
would affect him. ~Inv!ncihlc :ouraGe
rugged honesty and unyiSiding vii
power were among his great qua!l,

PART II.

IT is most interesting to watch how
children of different tempera-
ments and with different home train
ing find themselves in the social life
of the kindergarten.
There is the PROFESSIONAL type of
child who has an academic type of
mind. He takes to books as a duck
to water. He prefers the company of
grown-up people and he is indiffer-
ent to games, He does not want to
join the group, he wants to be let
alone.
But this is the type of child whose
parents (if they are the right kind)
will have to drive him out of the
house to play after school hours, when
he is in the grades. The physical and
social needs must be developed, his
mental hunger will take care of the
development of his mind.
Too often the vanity of parents
makes them take pride in the rapidity
with which this academic type of
child advances through the grades.
They compare him with the neighbor's
child, jolly, normal little individual
whom the other boys on the play
ground recognize is twice as much of
boy as the little professor.
Children that have hunger for
books should have that hunger salts
fed, but education should give
balanced training, and no child can
develop into the right type Of human
being who has not had the normal,
child-like experience of the give and
take of play life with other children.
Another type of the child that does
not fit into the group is the child who
is painfully shy. A shy child suffers
so acutely in the presence of other
people that it is natural to protect
him and keep him in retirement.
But at some stage in his existence
he will have to come out from his iso-
lation and mingle with people and
take his place in society. 1t is some
times easier for the bashful child to
enter a primary school than a kinder
garten.
The children are isolated in the
formal type of primary room. Each
child sees only the back of the child
in front of him, and in the formal rec
itations, he recites as an individual
and only has TO respond to the
teacher.
But while this type of school may
seem more acceptable to the shy
child, as it did to the child of the
academic type, his isolation from his
Americus times-recorder., 1919-11-23
PUTTING AWAY
SUMMER TOGS

The organdies, palm beach, the
straw hats, and the low shoes are
fast disappearing from the day-to-
day wardrobe The wise housewife
does not let them stay in the over
crowded closet to take up valuable
space and brush against the velvets,
serges and broadcloths. Neither
does she lay them away in any con-
dition they happen to be in after
their last appearance, In stead, she
puts them away carefully cleaned
and treated so the least change pos
sible will come. to them, keeping
record of what supplies there are
and where she puts them in order
that she may find them when the
occasion arises by simply looking at
her desk records. If packed in
boxes, label on each box telling the
contents makes the finding of each
article an easy matter. Her outline
of treatment would be very nearly
like the following, according to home
economic specialists in the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture:
Washable White Clothing.-Wash-
ed carefully, no starch added, blued
more than usual to avoid a yellow
appearance when spring unpacking
comes. Hung in closet reserved
for this particular use or folded so
that the creases will correspond as
far as possible with the folds into
which the garment falls in use and
laid in trunk or box.
Washable Colored Clothes--Wash-
ed, unstarched, turned wrong side
out and hung in the closet or pack
ed away as were the white garments.
Palm Beach Suits-Cleaned and
put in separate box, carefully folded.
Hats.-How to treat the summer
hat depends much upon the material.
If of straw, brushing off all dust and
packing in a hat box is good treat
ment. The georgette and lace hats,
if soiled, should be dry cleaned and
allowed to air thoroughly before
wrapping in tissue paper and storing
away in a hat box. Avoid weight
which will crush the trimming.
Shoes.-The pumps and oxfords
should be cleaned and put away with
shoe trees in each one.
Inventory should be simple, OF
course, but definite, giving list and
storage place of the clothes for each
member of the family. This will
prove of definite service when next
springs clothing budget requires
thought and time.
Americus times-recorder., 1919-11-23

school mates is not developing in him
the habit of assertiveness and conf
dence in a social situation which is
the training he needs.
If the shy child is intrusted to the
care of an intelligent kindergarten
teacher she will take into considera-
ton his timidity and provide inter
esting and absorbing occupations
which he can enjoy in isolation; but
gradually she will help him become
acquainted with . small group of un-
derstanding little playmates. He will
grow in confidence from day to day
and may develop a latent power of
real leadership.
1t is the art of teaching-indeed,
it is the art of motherhood-to be
able to give the little children of diff
ferent temperaments the right kind of
training. Too often mothers and
teachers can play only on one kind of
instrument.
How many mothers have had a set
of rules and a training program which
has worked admirably with the first
child, and then little brother has come
along and upset all the theories.
Too many teachers feel aggrieVed
because the type of child that it is
pleasing to them to teach can not be
produced in large, standardized guam
titles. Parents and teachers seem TO
oblivious to the fact that dealing with
different types of children successful
ly is the real test. Many teachers
fail in discipline because of lack of
adaptability and lose their jobs, and
many mothers fail, but alas, the same
alternative does not follow.
