Home Traffic in Girls

The white slave problem is local
as we'll as international. For many
years New York City has been
known as the "Port of Missing
Girls" owing to the fact that an
average of several thousand per
year are lost there. Some of these
are subsequently located but there
are many that are never heard Of
again.
Recently two girls were arrested
in raid upon a resort in Philadel-
phia. They told a story of being
abducted during sightseeing tour
in New York City during which
they visited some chop suey res.
taurants in chinatown" Their
abductors were walters in one o.
the restaurants, who took them tt
Philadelphia.
According to evidence gathered
it appears that this is regular
business of certain New York PEG.
pie who supply girls not only to the
larger but to some of the smaller
cities of the country as we'll.

To Dry Vegetables and Fruits

Plan to dry vegetables and fruit
when the stove is hot for other pur-
poses. Fasten a wire frame over
the stove to utilize heat otherwise
wasted. Fill oven and warming
closet with corn, apples, etc., when
not in use for other purposes. Dry
ing bit every time the stove is
heated will conserve foodstuffs for
winter with no extra fire and but
little extra effort.
In washing black stockings add
one tablespoon Of vinegar to the
rinsing water to have the stockings
retain the color.

Good Use for Rubber Bands

Small elastic rubbers, like those
used around rolls Of paper, are
more convenient for placing around
rolls of patches or cloth left over
from making a garment, than using
pins or strings for tying around
them, and presents a neater APP
pearance in storing away. Catalogs,.
magazines, punches Of papers may
be rolled with a rubber band around
them and stored away in smaller
space.

The Problems of
HOME AND FAMILY
A Talk with our Wives. Mothers,
and Sisters
The Modern Plague

Parents are probably wholly res
ponsible for spoiled children; yet
it is not in any sense a matter of
blood or heredity.
A spoiled child is not born spoil
ed. The spelling process does not
begin as a rule until the child is at
least two or three months Of age.
Its beginning comes when habits
begin to form. In fact the spoil
ing Of child is purely a matter Of
the formation Of selfish habits.
Early infancy is the great habit
forming age; and the formation of
habits of selfshness at this time is
no more a sign Of evil in the child's
nature than would be the forma-
ton of habits of fast eating or loud
talking in the natures of his elders.
We repeat those actions which
yield us satisfaction; and in this
way habits are formed. 1t is the
satisfaction, not the nature of the
child that determines what habits
shall be fixed. Grown-ups should
cease to lay upon him the stigma
of an evil nature merely because
he has been allowed to form selfish
habits.
There is great responsibility
resting upon the parents to see
that such habits do not become
fixed in the lives of their children.
Not only the future happiness of
the little ones, but the interests Of
society, demand that this parental
obligation be faithfully discharged.
1t is in no sense a matter Of choice
or preference on the part Of
parents.
Bad habits are hard to break;
but it is NOT hard to prevent their
formation. Nowhere is the ounce
of prevention more effective than
here. If parents, and especially
mothers. would adhere strictly to
the rule that children should never
in any case be allowed to accom-
plish ends that will yield them sat
isfaction or pleasure by wrong or
selfish means, selfish habits could
not begin and so would not be
formed. Then the modern plague
of the spoiled child would soon
come to an end.

A Woman Honored

For the first time in the history
of the Baptist church, a woman
holds its highest Office in the Nor
thern Baptist conference.
Mrs. Helen Barrett Montgomery
of Rochester, New York, was prac-
tically unanimously elected presi-
dent at it's recent converting at
Des Moines. She was elected at
an assembly composed chiefly of
men, for the men greatly outnum-
>bered the women in the conven-
ton.
At one of the sessions of the
convention, Mrs. M. Grant Ed.
mands, of Pasadena, California
one of the vice presidents, presided
when the president became ill.
What the Baptists think of the
qualifications of women for public
service, is of considerable conse
quence and will have a bearing or
public sentiment.

Women Rule Bad Lands

By a strange turn of fate, the
9 Jackson's Hole" country in Wyo-
ming, which was for a long time a
notorious resort Of desperadoes and
outlaws of the worst type, seems
about to come under the exclusive
rule of women.
At an election held last month
it was decided that the county of
Lincoln should be divided into two
parts. One Of these, which will be
called Teton County, includes the
famous rendezvous of the bandits
of other days. The county seat
will be Jackson, which is the only
town Of any size in the new county.
1t happens that this town is and
has been for some time in the
hands of its women; and they are
preparing and fully expecting to
elect a complete women's ticket
for the newly-created county
offices. There appears to be every
probability that their program will
be realized as they have held the
reins so satisfactorily that there is
little opposition.

champion to his feet after Downey had
knocked him down a second time.
AT Gardeners slow. count of ten the

while he was down. This was after
Downey had battered down Wilson the
third time.
