CHILDREN

The plan to giving the child exper-
fence in his education in the line of
home-making is being tried in Winnie
bego, Nebraska.
An acre of land near the school
has been donated by a public
spirited citizen for the children to
use in making miniature farms and
gardens.
Each child upon entering school at
six years of age, is assigned a farm
thirty-three feet square. There are
forty of these farms in the acre Of
ground
The pupils study the soil and test
the seed. They sow, plant and cul-
tivate their farms just as the grown
ups do.
During the winter, fences, gates,
hen-houses, barns and cottages are
planned and built in the manual
training classes.
S. Toledo Sherry, the author of
the plan was at the recent conference
Of the National Educational Associa-
ton in its behalf. The plan was or
iginally used by Mr.. and Mrs. Sherry
with the Indians of the Pine Ridge
reservation in South Dakota. It has
been employed on several of the In
dian reservations and is being intro
duced into our own public schools.
Children love to initiate their eld-
ers and having farm of their own,
which they can cultivate themselves,
gives them great pleasure. The
teachers instruct them but do not in
terefere with their freedom in oper-
ating their farms.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sherry believe that
this model farm plan teaches children
the value of a home and how to make
one, and the farms serve as miniature
experiment stations.
knowledge gained from experience
is more lasting and much more inter
esting than that gained from books
alone, and it is of far more working
value
Mr.. Sherry thinks this way of unit
ing manual training and industrial
work furnishes the best kind of edu-
cation for the head, hand and heart.

IHE:' WAGES
Of women

The employment Of women in the
industries and in public service is
probably receiving more attention in
all civilized countries just now than
ever before.
Two specific questions are involved.
One is, should they be allowed to
perform the work Of men at a time
when there is not work enough to go
around? The other is, should they be
paid the same wages as men for the
same work?
In the government offices at Wash
ington, $4,000 women are employed
but only 80, 900 men. However, when
it comes to salaries, the comparison
is all in favor Of the men. Of 5000
appointment recently investigated,
only five per cent of those going to
women paid more than 1900 while
forty-six per cent of those going to
men paid more than this. In the
Labor Department the highest salary
allowed is $4,000 while in the Mems
Bureau of the same department, the
pay for similar work is $4,000.

by an Illinois postmaster inspired by

politeness and humanity in their

DR.. C. j. Gose, postmaster at Kin

his appreciation of the suggestion as
follows:
A Fourth-C Glass Postmaster.
l do wish that Mister Hays
Could see my sweet and charming
ways
And how polite and nice l am
When some guy comes to mail
ham.
How sweetly to those nuts | smile
When they are asking all the while
For stuff they've bought from Sears
Roebuck,
To whom they sent one lonesome
buck
They're looking for a bale of tripe,
A Kiddy-Kar or meerschaum pipe;
And round the Office they will stick
Till I get peeved and durn near
sick.
But yet l have to smile and say:
"Your package did not come today"
And then they draw an ugly sigh
AS if to say: 81 think you lie."
| spread them one elastic grin
| And say: Twill soon be coming
| in"
If Mr.. Hays would come and see
The way some folks are treating
| | know full we'll that he would sob
And he would let me keep the job.
| He'd say: Dear Doc, if you'll stay
| here
I'll boost your pay two beans a
year"
After getting these lines out of his
system, DIR. Gose let it be known
that he classes himself as a "frst
class fourth class postmaster"

Kentucky, sought and obtained the
Office of policewoman, ard is the lone

Neon has been rated as a Iawless
town Women and children have
rarely been permitted on the streets
at night, and in many instances the
movies were unattended Grand juries
made Investigations without results
for no one dared to testify against
malefactors.
Through Mrs Wright's efforts a
transformation has already taken
place. "Men won't do; we have tried
them for years and things are get

cessity Of stamping out the whiskey
traffic and other vices, and applied for
the job. l go on duty as a policewo-
man with the sole purpose of doing
my duty and making Neon one of the

Mrs. Wright goes armed, and she
is a crack shot. She is an attractive
woman on the sunny side of thirty.
She tips the beam at two hundred and
twenty-five pounds which alone dis
poses evil doors to think twice before
counting trouble.
