EormIno a ChiId's Ideas.

Priceless opportunities belong to a mother to give to the baby, with his whole life before him, the true foun- dations of character and chances of future happiness and greatness. So the first thing wise woman does is to reason the matter out, deciding on a method of action which can be pursued with as little deviation as possible. Preparation is needed, for just as love does not bestow a mysterious instinct as to the proper physical treatment of a baby, so affection alone will not prove a sufficient guide or teacher in the matter of character training. One has to cultivate the power of restrain ing impulse, of infinite patience and infinite self-control and firm grasp Of those principles which underlie the for nation of character. By possessing these powers herself, the mother Is able to direct child's conduct and to suggest motives to him at a time when his impulses are natural and his ideas vet uniformed, when he will learn lit orally unconsciously.

TAKE IT EASY IN ,THEATER
Japanese Customs That Seem odd to Those Accustomed to the For
 maiities Of the West.

Japan must be happy land for theatergoers, because in that land seats are not paid for-in fact there are no seats. The Japanese much pre- fers to squat. feeling, no doubt, much more at home in this comfortable at- titude. Seats, however, are usually brought for the use of any foreigners who may be present. There are no hard and fast laws of convention. The Japanese playgoer may do as he pleases; he may eat, drink, smoke and criticize to his hearts content. Conversations are carried on, and, if they merit 1t, the actors are met by storm of criticism and chaff. When man enters the auditorium he removes his boots, and if the weather is hot, any clothing that appears to him to be superfuous. The naive frankness of the actors prompter is rather de- hghtful, for if an actor forgets his lines the prompter comes on the stage and, quite openly, points out to the actor where he is wrong. A boy is kept for the express purpose of walk ing on the stage and wiping the per spiration off the actors faces; this duty he carries out without disturbing the even tenor of the play.

Shall We Discard Hyphens7

In the struggle for the conservation of energy and material we are urged to cut out the hyphens from our books and writings, says the Chicago Jour- nal. Their use causes us to waste an enormous amount of time, ink and physical force. Some nations build up compound words without any hy- phen to break them, but the English find one necessary for simple word of five letters, like to-day" It may be roughly estimated that each of the 2OOO,OOOOOO people who write Eng fish write today" tomorrow" or tonight" three times a day. Half an ounce of force Is required to make a hyphen with pen or a pencil, so this superhuous symbol entails to- tai waste of 1s,5OO, 900 pounds daily, or enough to draw passenger train round the world.

Beetle CuItlVator,

Ants are not the only insects that practice the cultivation of mushrooms, although for long time 1t was thought that they were the only creatures of a lower order than man that possessed the intelligence to follow such an agri- cultural pursuit. Bouverie. the ento- mologist, had found that a certain wood-boring beetle, known as the bos- trychide, is as familiar with mushroom cultivation as is the species of ant of which so much has been written. Pro- lessor Bouverie discovered that the beetles in question bore holes in wood and half fill them with a prepared fungus which makes an ideal mush- room bed. The garden Is carefully spawned and in course of time the mushrooms appear. In this way the beetle provides itself with food suf- ficiently tender for its feeble jaws.

REPORT ON FREIGHT
 CAR SITUATION

The present freight car situation on the railroads of the United States is revealed in report just issued by K. M. Nicoles, Chairman of the San Francisco Committee on Car Service. The interest and cooperation shown by shippers in the Bay District is ap- preciated by members of the commit tee and attention is called to the aec- essity of keeping up the good work.
 Says Nicoles: F,Nt
 'In the eastern part of the coun- try, the movement of coal shows im- provement, while the movement of steel and steel mill products shows a decrease amounting to congestion at mills in some sections, the scarcity of open top or coal carrying cars togeth- CT with the increased demand, being responsible for the situation. In the wheat growing sections the box car situation is very serious. Large quantities of last years crop of wheat and other grains awaiting shipment fill the elevators and storage places, and the new crop now about to be harvested shows in some places large increase. z. ''E
 "1n the Northwest Minnesota, the Dakotas and Eastern Montana, where usually at this season are stored 15,- 900 to 18,000 box cars ready to move the crops, there is actually a car shortage with elevators full of old grain. Minneapolis and St. Paul, are particularly in bad shape, unable to get cars enough to keep elevators nor mally free.
 "The Pacific Coast, and especially California, so dependent upon the steady movement of box cars from the East to handle its product, will in the near future find the supply being cur tailed to dangerous degree, and to make the burden as light as possible, California shippers are again urged to take every possible means to con serve box cars. An immediate survey should be made by every business in- dustry to see where and how cars may be saved by cooperation with one an- other and the carriers. Several we'll known methods are again suggest ed-double load, pool shipments, load to maximum capacity, load and un- load promptly, keep in close touch with carriers agents, report antici- pated release of cars, order only when ready to load and only cars that are required from day to day, surrender bills of lading in advance of arrival of cars when possible and utilize drays and trucks for crosstown and nearby movement.
 "Al these concern the shipper and are offered in spirit of helpful CO., operation and efficiency. Make one car do the work of two, and do it now" s'f

Early Irish History.

In the earliest time of which there Is any record, Ireland was inhabited by tribes of the great Celtic family, to which belonged the ancient Brit ons of the larger island, and the Gauls of the country now known as France. Each tribe had its chief, and after a time supreme monarch came to the front. One of the most famous of these was Brian, who overthrow the invading Danes in the battle of Clon- tarf, fought in the year 1014 near Dub- lin. He was slain in his tent at the close of the fight. After his death the supreme monarchy was often In complete abeyance, misrule and an- archy widely prevailed and the ancient form of society was largely broken up. It is said that Roderick O'ConnOr, son of Turlough, was the last of the mon- archs of Celtic Ireland. From that time the influence of Anglo-Normans increased. 4. H. a

Running Birds Nest.

Burroughs, in his charming little book, Wake Robin." says 1t is an event in ones life to find humming birds nest. The event happened to me without any effort on my part. Looking up from seat in the grove, I saw the ruby-throat drop down on It's nest, like a shining emerald from the clouds; it did not pause upon the edge of the nest but dropped imme- diately upon it. The nest was situ- ated upon an oak twig, and was about the size of a black-walnut, and from where I sat 1t looked more like an excrescence than a nest. It was sit uated in the fork of two twigs, and firmly glued at the base to the lower, but was not fastened to the upper twig.-Mary Treat in Home Studies in Nature.' ..'

STATE BOARD OF
 HEALTH REPORT

It is interesting to note the failing off of communicable diseases for the month of June, reports the State Board of Health. This is particularly true of the incidence of smallpox. Since the first of the year, the num- Der of cases has gradually increased until May when 55 cases were report ed from counties. During June, the number of cases dropped to 15.
 In Gila County there were 16 cases of scarlet fever, 2 cases in Graham and in Yavapai.
 Of the other communicable diseas- es, the number of cases were negligi- ble. Maricopa and Pinal counties re- ported one case each of Infantile Pa ralysis. Cochise reported case of Malta fever, a disease contracted from goats.
 STATISTICS SHOW GROWTH
 An examination of the births and deaths reported to the Arizona State Board of Health at different periods is of considerable interest. The first number of the quarterly Bulletin of the Health Department issued Nov. 1, 1907, shows the Births to have been at the annual rate of 1,212 and the deaths, 1888. For the year ending June 30, 1910, there were 3,O54 deaths. The deaths for 1919 number ed 5,O40. In 1918, the influenza cpl demic brought the death list to 6,623. The births for 1918 were 6,257; for 1919, 6,591.
 BIRTH RECORD ADVANCES
 Arizona's birth record shows a con- tinuous and gratifying increase There were reported for the first five months Of 1Q20.

How to Utilize Wood Waste.

The utilization of wood waste IS one
 way recommended to cut down the high cost of living. Here are some ar
 ticles made from sawdust and shingle waste which the New York College of Forestry is exhibiting in its efforts to show how the waste of the sawmill can be utilized to cheapen the cost of living: "Silk" socks, sausage castings, photograph records, paper milk bot ties and tanbark shingles. The "silk" looks like silk and feels like silk, but is much cheaper than silk. The sau. sage castings are made by treating the wood with chemicals that turn 1t into viscose, and rolling this into thin films.

Of the 3,294 babies reported, 26 were illegitimate.
 Although Arizona has no specific law insisting that the eyes of babies shall be protected against the possi- bility of blindness from opthalrnia neonatorum, yet this protection was accorded in 2,S43 births. It was not given in 3S1 cases. It is worthy of note that 371 births were attended by midwives.
 More than 25 per cent of the babies, 893, were the first born of their fam lilies. Nearly half, 1,563, were in families of from 2 to 5. About 16 per cent, 556, were in families of from 6 to 10.
 There were 112 born in families of II and over.
