1.-THE INCEST THING IN THE
WORLD"

A gentleman-farmer of Tarrytown,
N. Y, in letter to one of the metro
politan papers. says that child asked
him What Is the incest thing in the
world?" And not feeling competent to
answer the question himself, he begged
FOR time and put II up to. four Of his
friends, "a philosopher, man OF the
world, a woman and fool"
The philosopher announced that the
Incest thing In the world Is place
where Bernard Shaw has never been
heard OF. where the natives ask no
personal questions and where there are
no white spats.
The man of the world opined that
he incest thing is a woman-not any
sort OF woman, but one who is not ex-
'tavag1nt, who doesn't wear sloppy
clothes around The house, who will
AXE d mans loyalty and love for grant
I'd and who will once in a while be
1unctual for n engagement.
The won 81 said. ut IS that curl
us. charming and marvelously com
olex illusion as TO the attributes Of my
ex held by decent men when they
happen TO be In love with us--or in
1lain English, the incest thing in the
world Is the way men idealize women.
The alleged fool, having heard these
hree definitions and turned up his
'ose n them. explained that the mic
st thing" is the belief he once heard
expressed in a play. that none of us
re bad. but that It's simply harder
or some OF us to be coed than 1t Is
or others.
Nov" concludes The gentleman,
what shall tell this child?" And
he best answer he can figure out is,
hat ''the incest thing in the world Is
what YOU haven't got"
What would You tell the child?

POSTGRADUATE WORK IN
"THRE,E RS"

| An exchange makes a novel sugges~
tion along the line of reinforcing pub
| lie school education. 1t reminds us
that in spite of the years spent in drill
| ing the three R's"--not to mention
the two G's"--into childish minds, the
present generation of pupils seem la
Imentably lacking in knowledge and
understanding of those strides, after
graduation. This exchange, therefore,
| foresees:
"The coming of day when some
person will create positive sensa-
ton in educational circles by rediscov-
ering the essentials. of education
lreading, writing, arithmetic, grammar
and geography-re-estab them
| in the public schools and. taking all the
Especial studies, grouping them in a
separate educational system ard max
| ing it possible for them to be studied
effectively for year or two after the
pupil passes out of the public school
as sort of preliminary for collegiate
tstudies.'
The suggestion has a substarum of
sound sense in it.: Undoubtedly there
| is too much instruction OF varied sorts
mixed up together nowadays in the
grammar schools for really thorough
and effective work in any of them. An
other line Of policy, however, is sug
gested by this proposal of POSTCARD
uate course in "frills.' Many of these
special studies, it must be recognized
are well fitted to childish minds, but
some of the heavier regular studies"
are net. Why not give postgraduate
work in the IRIS and "G's."
There can be no doubt that a good
deal Of the instruction impaired to
children in the grammar grades is not
| digested by them, and therefore not re-
membered and made serviceable in
after life, simply because at the time
their minds were not mature enough.
High school teachers in many cities
find 1t necessary to take freshmen
through a quick review of some OF
these common school studies before
they can go ahead with the advanced
work. And usually 1t is found that
the same pupil who Numbered through
10 his public school diploma now, as
high school student, grasps the essen
ltials and sees the application of his
arithmetic, grammar, geography, etc.
far more readily than he did year
or two earlier.
One or the most valuable principles
IN education Is to avoid losing the
things once acquired; otherwire, years
Iare wasted Cicero used to take his
vast stores of information off their
mental shelves. SO to speak, periodi-
cally. and run through them to keep
them fresh and ready for use. It's a
good thing for anybody, young or old,
to turn back occasionally and pick up
The old books. and with the ew com
prehension of maturer minds and
broader experience grasp and mail
down the knowledge that slips SO cas-
| lily out OF mind.

THOSE KANSAS DINNERS.

Last year there was a movement in
Kansas to eliminateSthe hot and bur-
| densome Sunday dinner, giving the
house-mother real day of rest instead
of fimsy imitation It's plan that
may well be followed from one end of
the land to the other, and now is "a
good time to begin.
There is no real reason, social, eco
nomic, or domestic, why Sunday noon
should be chara cterized by heavy
meal, and there are great many rea-
sons of all kinds why it should not.
And in these days of gas and oil stoves
md fireless cookers there is no neces-
sity whatever for woman to slave
over hot stove when she ought to be
resting or at church.
1t is perfectly possible to "have the
Sunday dinner Saturday night" in a
good many homes. This always pro

giving warm meal with only a few
minutes preparation. Roast beef and
chicken can be warmed in the gravy,
meat loaf can be steamer over small
burner. Vegetables can be partly cook
ed and salad dressings made the day
before. One or two hot dishes are
Lplenty fer the main meal of a hot day.
The possibilities of the fireless cook
er are almost endless. With the pre-
valence and accessibility of cheap Pc
loleum fuels and small, handy, inex-
pansive stoves in which to burn them,
there Is no excuse for any family be-

DR.. A. J. OCHSNER WRITES
INTERESTING ACCOUNT !
OF SWITZERLAND FOREST

The following account of Swiss
forest was received from DR.. A. J.
Ochsner in response ato an inquiry by
Miss Emma Gattiker who had learned
that the Ochsner family stood in
some special relation to this forest
The account came too late to be in
corrorated in her paper (on European
forestry at the Fortnightly club.
The young man, Henry Ochsner,
who won the lawsuit on coming to
America settled in the town of Honey
Greek, Sank Co. The well-known
Ochsner farm passed into the hands
of the oldest son, Henry A. who in
turn has given over the active man
agement of it to his son, Arthur
Ochsner.
The youngest daughter, Emma, now
in Los Angeles, had the pleasure, a
few years ago, of visiting and walk
ing about in this fine old forest.
Recollections concerning the mu-
nicipal forest Of the village of Nae
nixon, Canton Zurich. Switzerland.
One hundred years ago, the village
Naen kon owned large forest which
was cultivated by the village author
tiles. Every year a portion was har-
vested. The timber was sold to lum-
Der merchants and the firewoOd was
distributed equally among the fam
lilies, each family receiving it's equal
proportion without regard to wealth
so long as the head of the family was
a citizen of the village.
During the year the children of the
poorer people would gather dead
limbs of trees for firewood, SO that
there was never any rubbish in the
forest. The forester looked after the
trimming of the trees and the thin
ming out when this was needed.
The land from which the wood had
been harvested was planted with po-
tatoes and carefully cultivated for
year or two or possibly three until
all of the little roots had decayed,
although there were practically none
left because the village children
would go over the ground and pick
up every root they saw. tie it in a
bundle and take it home for fuel
During the early part of the last
century some of the farmers became
quite wealthy by intermarriage in
small families while others with
large families whose land had to be
subdivided between the various heirs
became relatively poor.
It occurred to the weather. ones
that the wood from the forest should
be divided in proportion to the taxes
paid by each householder so that the
income from the municipal forest
would go ito the rich families almost
entirely They elected officers who ar
