The following are themes written
BY the commercial English class:
Students who volunteer recita-
tions should not receive extra
credit.
The teacher who allows a student
to make voluntary recitation has
very poor idea of how a class
room should be conducted. She is
permitting that special student to
take good mark out Of fellow
students hand. II one student re-
cites, without being asked to by the
teacher, surely there will be a sec
ond one to try 1t and before long
you will find that the orderly class
room has been turned into a noisy
and altogether too confusing one.
The pupil who recites without be-
ing called upon shows how limited
his manners are. He is being rude
to the teacher by depriving her of
the right to be just and fair to all
whom she Is teaching. He knows
he is taking a good mark from an
other and adding to his spoils. Is
he conscious of the wrongs he is
committing and still seems to be
untroubled!
Why, then, should a student who
is wronging the teacher, his fellow
student, and himself, be given extra
credit to encourage him to continue
to do wrong!
He should Not!

IN SUMMER HATS
White Lingerie Headgear Likely
to Return to Favor.
Some Of the Smart Su.,mery Millinery
10 Formed From Furnished
Lisere Straw.

With the prominence being given by
great French milliners to the broad
brimmed hat of antique leghorn with
ribbon streamers or lace trimming, We
need not be surprised, observes fash
ion authority, TO see the white lingerie
hat worn ID years ago with the sim
pie muslin dress return TO popularity.
Some of the summary hats are
formed from FURNISHED llsere straw.
with no trimming other than a mar
row velvet ribbon placed about the
crown and tied In a tiny bow at the
back with long flowing ends. Such
models may have small punches Of
fruit or flowers tucked under the
brim, as il seems that there is no ten
dency TO depart from a bit of dropping
trimming at the side.
Lace is used more sparingly than
last summer and in Its logical place
for the real dress hat. Vanished rib
bons and vanished straws still are
smart with ginghams or simple frocks
A wide-brimmed shiny straw hat, with
a broad glazed ribbon crossing the
crown and ending in loops or fringed
ends at either side, is decidedly at
tractive.
The true spirit OF summer appears
In some Of the simple straw hats by
our own American makers. Very
lovely TO wear with a sheer white
frock is one of bright green horse
hair with dropping brim, cut wide at
the sides and short In the back and
front. The only trimming is a wreath
of green leaves going across the front
and extending beyond the brim on
either side.
With the movement for four sea-
sons In this country the large, sum-
merry hat will doubtless grow I'm favor.
This Endorsement of Paris and the
sending over Of many large shapes TO
be copied for this midsummer season
will doubtless have a very definite
bearing on the efforts of our own mil
liners to create a demand for real
summer hats at this time. 1t would
seem unnecessary that any great
amount Of effort should be expended
to develop four seasons in clothes.
They should exist logically. But here
In America they have not. There
have practically been only two seasons
In millinery.

II pays the community to make a
battle for tree treasures. 1t is a
fight which should employ many differ

should be the selection for city plant

immune 10 the more dangerous pests.
Next is good care, and the foster

scraping and spraying to get rid Of the
enemies which, like the oyster shell
scale, have broken through the other
lines of defense.
