Correspondent Visits Typical
Agricultural County of England

ANIMALS they may pasture is alsosre-
stricted. Here there seem to be no
limits.
In the next parish | noticed some
fine fields cut up into strips of an
acre or two, unfenced but in different
crops. Here, was told, about seven
hundred years ago there was a forest,
in which the villagers had the right
to pasture their animals. The lord Of
the manor found this inconvenien+
and gave them the fields have men
toned in compensation for the pasture
rights. To this day the fields are
divided up annually among the viii
layers and cultivated for the benefit
or the entire community. In many
places such common fields have exist
ed from time immemorial, and are
still cultivated in a prescribed rota.
tion OF crops which indicates a very
primitive system of agriculture.
One afternoon we heard, far up the
street, the changing Of dinner bell,
followed by shouting. The noise was
repeated nearer at hand. The third
time we could see the funny little
man who was making it, and the
fourth we heard him. 1t was the
town crier, announcing "at half past
six precisely. on the Green, a sale OF
ladies', gents and children's boots,
direct from the maker to the wearer.
The last few words were pronounced
with a peculiar rising infection, like
that of g clergyman intoning the serv-
ice. This is the ancient method Of ad-
vertising anything from the birth of \
child to the straying of a calf-the
first English newspaper.
We asked our landlady. a middle
aged woman, If she had lived here
long. "Oh. yes" she said, my father
was born in this house." The house
looks it, and it is filled with antique
furniture which we are longing to
pack up and bring home with US. In
the hall stand a genuine grandfath-
er's clock and an oak cupboard with
the date 1857 carved upon it. There
are no less than three copper warm
ing pans in the house, and stores of
old brass candlesticks and pewte"
mugs and plates. We sleep on a
feather bed. in an old-fashtoned four
poster. The posts reach to the cell
ing and are hand-carved in a quaint
design of leaves and spirals.
There was day when antique deal
ers and collectors went about the
farms and villages picking up such
treasures or a song, but the country
people are wiser nowadays. We
should need much more money THAI
we have to furnish even tiny bunga
low with their heirlooms.

Human Nature in the Ford Car.

"As the casual visitor stands at the
end of the assembly line at the Ford
Motor Company's plant at Detroit,
Mich.," says L. E. Titus, local Ford
dealer, land observes an almost end
less line of cars pass through to COM
pletion, he is likely to think that 1t Is
all q matter of production-thath HUI
man nature is not considered. and
that it does not enter into the making
of Ford automobile.
Yet it is not all matter OF math-
ematic and mechanics. Human nature
plays an important part in the manu-
facture of motor cars and Henry Ford
and his associates give full realization
to this fact.
"Keeping up the morale of from
100, 900 to 1850 workers is no small
lob, and the manner in which this Is
done in the Ford factory is Of unusual
interest not only to the owners OF
Ford cars but to the public in gen
eral.
"A large. completely equipped hos
pital, manned by large staff of ply
sicians. surgeons, and internes looks
after the physical welfare of every
Ford employee. In addition. numer-
Gus emergency stations, situated at
strategic points about the plant take
care of accident cases and others,
which the most highly developed safe
ty devices cannot prevent.
Not only the physical condition OF
the employees but the mental welfare
is also looked after by legal and ad-
yisory departments. Employees arc
free to seek guidance on any subject
which is troubling them or on which
they wish advice.
"A completely equipped school,
with large corps of instructors.
teaches an almost endless variety oil
subjects to large classes. Tool max
ini draughting. English, spelling
and many other subjects are included
in the curriculum.
I'm these days of high prices the
Ford Motor company is attempting -
give every employee the opportunity TO
stretch his pay envelope as far as IL
will 60 and to this end it has estab-
lished a real department store. Here
groceries. supplies. and even clothing
and shoes may be bought at substan-
tial savings.
1.-The result Of all these facilities Is
spirit on the part of the workmen
that is at once apparent to even the
most casual visitor. 1t is the real Sc
cret behind the mammoth production
Of the Ford factory.

Brill. Eng, June 26, 1920.


After the Cooks Tour prospectus !
wrote last week. this should be an ac-
count of brilliant doings in one Of
the great capitals of Europe. not the
simple annalh of a country village in
Buckinghamshire. But | have been
taking examinations at Oxford, and
the examiners require me to return
July 5 for the rest of my medicine
l mean law. Everyone knows what q
depressing place a university town is
when the colleges are breaking up,
and Oxford is especially depressing
in summer. An old lady told us how
one Ernest and his mother came up
here in the spring, and Ernest picked
UP right away" We decided to fol-
low Ernest's example.
Leaving Oxford, we rode IA miles
over winding, hilly roads of good
macadam, past old timbered cottages
with matched roofs, surrounded by
gardens of bright. old-fashioned flow
ers. In almost every field were
clumps of splendid old trees-oaks,
elms, and pale-green beeches. Elder
blossoms and wild roses, pink and
white, made the whole countryside
seem one great garden. At last re
painted up one more hill, the highest
yet. and the second highest point in
Buckinghamshire," into a little knot
of old brick cottages which is Brill.
On this hill, it is said, the old Saxon
kings used to hold their councils
(Witangemots). They certainly
picked a good spot.
Buckinghamshire, commonly known
as Bucks" is one of the typical agri-
cultural counties of England. 1t is
still practically without factories, and
was the last English county to be
without a railroad. though that was
many years ago. We find many old
customs surviving here which hava
died out in most places. Every morn
ing early the baaing Of sheep under
our windows awakes US, for our lodg-
ings overlook the Square" q bit o!
open. grassy land. Farther up the
hill is a similar patch known as the
Green" To the west OF the village
is a large rough tract OF open land.
All of this is Common" and anyone
living in the parish of Brill has the
right to pasture upon 1t as many ami
mails as he owns. II he is going to
build a house he may dig in it for
stone. clay, or sand. In most places
where there is common land thesa
rights are limited to the owners OF
certain farms. and the number OF

SUNDAY SCHOOLS
TO Be M0DERN|zED
EPISCOPAL NORMAL TO TURN
OUT TEACHERS TO MAKE DRY
LESSONS ATTRACTIVE,

A project of vital interest to parents
and children Of this and other COM
munities which is expected to revolu-
tionize the old-time methods Of IN
struction in Sunday schools through
out the country and bring thousands
Of children into interested attendance
where in the past there have been
scores, is made public through the ma
tion-wide campaign Of the Episcopal
church.
The famous Montessori method of
instruction, which has been adopted
widely in the day schools of the United
States, is to be applied in the Sunday
schools through the new plan. The
idea is 10 discard the "dry" lesson
leaflets of the past and to teach the
child through it's environment.
The New System.
"The old system was to lead a child
to a book or leafet and say learn
that" explains the Rev. DR.. William
e. Gardner, general secretary Of the
Episcopal board of education. 'By the
new method, finding the child inter-
ested in the church's stained glass Win
dows, we explain these windows and
thus teach him stories of the saints
and incidents depicted there. This
plan is extended Indefinitely in similar
ways.
'For instance, in the vestments Of
the priest, We explain that the black
stands for separation from the world
and white for purity. We also explain
that in the colOrs of the altar hang
tngs and Eucharistic vestments, the
purple of Advent is for pcnitence,
white at Christmas and Easter for
joy, red on saints days for the blood
of the church's martyrs, ard the black
of Good Friday for DEATH"
To Teach Teachers.
The new idea has been started
through the organization Of a Church
Normal school in New York city with
a faculty of IA men and women, who
will give a six months course to 1871
Episcopal Sunday school teachers Of
Manhattan. Similar normal schools to
prepare teachers for their work
throughout the country are being
planned as part of the nationwide
campaign of the Episcopal church.
Whereas the training of Sunday
school teachers in the past has been
largely. a matter of chance and the re-
suits of their teaching has been more
or less uncertain, it is believed that by
the new plan definite results can be
obtained toward making the Sunday
schools much more attractive to chill
dren, and their knowledge of the Bible
and the purposes and ideals of the
church will be greatly developed.

Color blindness proves to be less

ChiId's Logic.

"A school teacher near Richmond,
Va, was instructing a class in geo
graphy," said the Rev. DR.. w. III. Mil
ton of Wilmington, N. c., in addressing
a meeting in the interests of the ma
tion-wide campaign of the Episcopal
church. "She talked about the equator,
the different one and explained the
general facts about the elements. To
test the impression she had made she
asked one little girl to explain why it
was that Massachusetts was SO much
colder than Virginia. The child pom
dered a moment, and then replied:

sets is SO much further away from

II think freak deliveries should

capped the game considerable be-
cause pitchers who go into the box
| with resin In one pocket and talcum
powder in the other, along with vas
cline or paraftin on their pants are try
Ing to get by with such methods.
"Without such methods to help them,
the pitchers in the future will have
to be there, as we We're in the old
days. Ability to pitch will have to
be shown all the time and am con-
ident the game will be better.
"There is no doubt in my mind but
that the freak pitchers of today can
get along without their fixings.
III they have a good arm and are
smart they can get by. So far
have not been able to work with a

NATIONAL LEAGUE HAS
MOST STAR TWlRLERS

Whatever may be the merit Of
the argument for or against the
National league. 1t is reasonably
apparent 1t has five or six clubs
with four or more first-class
proven pitchers, and that the
American clubs are not SO fortu-
nately equipped.
In the National league, New
York. Chicago, Brooklyn. Gin
cinnati. and possibly Pittsburgh,
have each four or Ave hurlers
able to pitch any club not too
deficient in other respects, into
a prominent position.
The American league can only
show one or two teams whose

able. While several clubs have
two or three stars only one or
two have four men Of proven re-

GREEN MOUNTAIN HOME
WILL OPEN JUNE lSr
School Founded by Edward ii. Everett
For Education of Sons of Soldiers

Bennington, April 27-Announce'
ment is made by the board of trustees
that the Green Mountain Home, the
agricultural and horticultural school
founded by Edward II. Everett cf Old
Bennington, will open fer the admis-
sion of students June 1st
The original purpose Of the founder
was to establish a home school for
the sons of men who had served in
the army and navy of the United
States and in the armies and navies
Of the governments allied against the
central powers in the world war, but
it soon became evident, because of the
youth of the men who served in the
American army and navy, that it
would at present be impossible TO
maintain such a restriction and the by
laws of the corporation were changed
SO as to permit the admission of other
boys, in the discretion of the trustees.
Applicants for admission to the
school must be at least 13 years old
and must be morally and physically fit
TO acquire the utmost advantage Of
the three year course in agriculture
and horticulture. The home is free
institution, no expense whatever be-
ing incurred by the students, his par
ents or guardian.
While primarily established for the
purpose of educating boys in horticul-
ture and agriculture, the course Of
study includes accounting, American
history and civics, English compost
tion and rhetoric, botany and entomol-
ogy and practical arithmetic. The
course in chemistry will be limited to
the uses Of that science in agriculture.
The school and its purposes have re-
ceived the endorsement Of the YER
mont department Of the American Le-
gion and Of the G. A. r.. direct de-
scendants Of members Of the latter or
ganization having preference in ad-
mission privileges over boys whose
fathers have no military records.
