WONDERFUL SCHOOL.
. Little Cripples at Prague
Learn Under Handicaps.

prIIJS is the story OF a wonderful
vocational school in Prague
czechoslovakia: the busy little boys
and the one little girl in it. The
idea. for this school originated sew
eral years ago with Prof. Bakule'
head of the institution. when ne
tound several badly crippled little
bovs who seemed absolutely helpless
He wanted to help them to become
self-supporting. so he gathered TINS
small group Of twelve boys together
and heean to instruct them in SUD-
iects such as making and decorating
wooden articles. candlesticks' it'ie
and big boxes for all kinds of uses
basketry and many other practical
trades.
The work of Prof. Bakule came to
the attention Of the Junior American
Red Cross at the time it first TOOK
mn the problem of helping the cnii, :, :,
dren Of Czecnoslovakia, ana IL uiu

American philanthropist, who gave
the $4,000 necessary to purchase the
site for a lasting home for THESE
children and more like them VINO

cal handicapS ana become uSeiui Si'N
gems. .,.
The most interesting child in the
school is little Frantik. a boy Win
out arms, who has learned to DO
marvellous carved work on tiny boxes
with his trained feet. An idea OF the
long and strenuous work behind TINS
wonderful Accomplishment is given
in the story told by his teacher. Prof.
RakuIe. when describing how Frantlk
first buttoned his cape when just
tiny little boy.
"He came home one evening. angry
that his cape was coming OF his
shoulders" said DR.. Bakule, land l
asked him, why did you not button it?'
"I cannot button it yet he SAID.

Immediately left his shoes and seated
himself on the carpet. 1t was lucky
that he was sitting so low. What
happened afterward was pure aero
batic art. He rolled like ball OF
wool on the foor in his cape. He
tried again and again to catch the
button with his little feet, shoulders
and teeth, to keep tight the button
hole.

NAMES FOR GIRLS.
And What They Mean

OCISE is a name for girls which
IL has many rather unusual vari-
ations in the different languages. The
Spanish Louise is Luisa: the Latin,
Ludovica: the German Ludwiga: the
Scotch. Alison; the Italian. Eloisa,
and the French. Lset:e Ii is prob
able that the original name was
Chlodwig. from the old Frankish,
meaning honorcd fighter The senti-
ment generally attributed to Louise
is worth and loYellness" and the
mignonette is her emblem.
Undoubtedly the most famous
Louise of history was Louisa, queen
of Prussia, who was born March 10
1776-the first year of the American
revolution-at Hanover. Her father
was Duke Karl of Meckleaburg-
Strelitz. In 1893 she married Prus-
sias crown prince. later Frede rick
William Ill. After her husband S
ascension to the throne Queen Louisa
became very popular. possessing un-
usually charming dignity and gra-
ciousness as well as great beauty
She was also noted during her reign
as being a lady bountiful in the
truest sense of the word. and she
displayed great energy and initiative
during the period of national
calamity which followed the battle
This battle really covered two sepa-
rate engagements fought on the same
day-October IA, 1906: One engage
ment was that at Auerstadt, fourteen
miles north Of Jena. in which 4S. 0OG
Prussians under the Duke Of Bruins
wick and 10000 French under Dayout
fought. The other engagement OF
the battle was fought around the
heights OF Jena by 10000 Prussians
under the Prince of Hohenlohe and
10000 French under the personal di-
rection of the great Napoleon. The
Prussians were totally defeated In
of the fatherland was the result.
1t was the queenly bearing of
Louisa under the insulting attitude
of Napoleon at this time that espe-
cially endeared her to her people.
She died in Strelitz in 1910. The
Prussian Order of Louisa was design
ed in her honor and two famous
A beautiful monument of her. exc
cuted by Rauch, stands in the mauso-
leum at Charlottenburg.
Another Prussian Louise famous in
history was Louise Ulrica, sister OF
Frederick the Great. She became
the queen of Sweden. The most un-
usual story of this queen is the one
telling how she positively refused
to wear the crown jewels because
the high treasurer quietly requested
that she count the diamonds before
she wore the jewels.
There was still third famous
Prussian Louise. This was Louise
Henrietta, wife of the great Elector
and authoress of prayer book
which was named after her. She also
wrote a number of hymns.
Queen Louise of Savoy, France
was noted principally for her crafti-
ness. but in spite Of this outstand-
ing trait she was greatly respected
because Of her love and knowledge
of the sciences and her ability to
handle the responsibilities Of enor-
nous luxury. She negotiated the
famous ladies' peace with Marguerite
of Austria One of the best known
pictures of European royalty is the
full-length picture of Queen Louise
of France descending flight OF
stairs. It was painted by Gustav
Richter in 1879 and the original Is
hung in the museum in Cologne.
