Puss Junior from the great Thunder
Bird, who had carried him off.

minute, but tell you right away that
as soon as this great bird saw the King
Of the Mountain and all of his subjects
he tapped his great wings and snapped
his long beak, and then he pushed little
Puss behind him and said:
II am the terrible THUNDER Bird,
Let no one come near me,
Or I'll tear the beard from of his chin
Or pun out his little goatee;
I'll peck out his eyes with my cruel beak
And blind him for evermore.
So do not delay, but go away;

MY feathers are as good as a coat OF

And. oh, dear me; The little King OF

All, WOMAN HAVE
YOU BEEN HERE?

CHICAGO. Oct. S.-The old fash
Toned girl, circumspect in talk, dress
and manners, has been transplanted
from staid England to Canada and
the United States, according to Mrs.
Samuel Barnett. English author and
social worker. here today.
Mrs. Barnett, who is touring the
United States lecturing on housing.
is shocked at the girls Of her native
land and pleased with the young
women on this side of the water. she
said
american women are very charm
ing anC old fashioned enough to carry
all the graces Of women of the Vic
torian period in England" she said.
1T is a delight TO see them and
hear them talk am glad they have
not taken to smoking cigarettes and
to the under dressing and fast talk
which has pervaded England"
Mrs. Barnett said the war caused
this condition among English women
when they came into daily contact
with men.
They worked at mems jobs and got
accustomed TO acting like men and
thought nothing of calling to one
another, Let's have a cigarette,
said Mrs. Barnett.
There is no remedy for this condi-
ton among English women. but to let
it wear itself out, Mrs. Barnett be-
lieves.

Advantages of Study by the
Correspondence Method
BY WADE r. PORTER,

To say in a general way. that in
struction by the correspondence
method is more efficient than resident
instruction. would be misleading
For a student to determine the best
method of instruction from all angles
he should consider three things
chiefly, |. e.-the subject he intends
to study; the character OF the partic-
ular correspondence course he is con-
sidering; and himself.
AS for the first consideration, not
all subjects are adaptable to cor
respondence study. If the student is
studying for the profession of Ac-
countancy, however or some simila r
profession where the work involved
is based upon written fgures or
easily grasped and has many ad-
vantages.
AS for the character Of the cor
respondence course considered. it
should be good course OF study.
naturally. And the character OF any
course can be determined upon by a
rigid investigation OF it's past and
present record
The final thing is perhaps the most
important 1t is strictly personal
and takes the human element into
consideration. Success with any cor
respondence course depends upon the
extent to which the student possesses
real ambition, determination, and
absolute willingness to study. with
out this. no student can be success
full with a correspondence course, and
