beauty standards, as she places the
three photographs from Europe on
her easel and examines them with a
critical eye.
at is fact" she said, ''that these
faces do not meet the art test" and
illustrating with a pencil, Miss Har-
rlson showed how the Greeks tested
the quality of the human face by
"quarteripg it."
They drew four horizontal lines
across the face-one at the peak of
the forehead, one at the eyebrows,
one at the tip of the nose, and one
at the point of the chin. tSee the,
diagram on this page.)
If the face was perfect according
to the Greek ideal the distance be-
tween the lines had to be the same
in each of the four divisions. In
other words, the space between the
top OF the head and the peak of tho
forehead matched the space between
the peak Of the forehead and the
eyebrows, Likewise each of these
matched the space between the eye
brows and the tip of the nose, and
also the space between the tip of the
nose and the point Of the chin.
The Greeks modelled their statues
and painted their pictures on this
standard, He who departed from ID
flew in the teeth of convention. And
the ideal Greek woman was the
beauty whose features "quartered

Nature study now forms large part
of the weekly program of the major
ity Of American schools, and no other
department of instruction succeeds so
we'll in stimulating pupils to work
which is all play. The classes identi-
fly the many kinds Of birds and study
their habits, watching especially their
nest-building and rearing of the
young; they construct M sting boxes,
winter feeding stations, and bird
baths. Before long the destructive

Americana are transformed into con-
structive activities. He becomes a
more broadly educated and tolerant
citizen, and the State is the gamer
thereby both in man power and bird
power.
The Association operates through
Junior Audubon Clubs, which it es-
tablishes and assists in the schools of
the country. Teachers in Rural
Schools usually welcome the opportun
ity for service Of this nature, and in
every school i'll each town and city of
the State there should be at least one
teacher who will be sufficiently inter

June l, 1922, there were 1882 Jun
ior Audubon Clubs in the schools of
the United States and Canada, with
total membership of 1,893,t 5.
Each pupil fishing to join such n
club brings ! cents to the teacher,
who sends the collected fund to the
state agent. Twenty-Five or more
pupils form club, which may receive
an appropriate name of their own

bird Study NEEDED
IN THE SCHOOLS
Education Week Brings Campaign
Cooperation of Teachers Urged

A bird in the bush is worth two in
. the hand. Such is the modern twist
given to an old adagc, and ornitholo-
gists everywhere are familiar with
the array OF cold figures which prove
this statement in the most convincing
manner. The Mockingbird, the Rob-
in, the Partridge,-nearly all of our
native birds in fact, are not only crea-
lures of grace and beauty that in
many cases delight us with song or
wonderfully developed instinct. They
are each worth a not inconsderable
sum of money to the agricultural in
terests of the nation, and hence more
or less directly to the individuals Of
any community. And their collective
value is enormous.
The National Association Of Audu-
bon Societies was established in 1901
for the protection of wild birds and
animals, and today so high q value is
placed upon the services to mankind
of our furrcd and feathered friends,

Bulldin gin the world, the United

Over 100000 books are now in tho
collection. TO them are to be added
manuscripts, maps, and pieces of mu-

ratory Bird Law, for example, rccog-
nizes that our common and very use
full song birds are not the property of
any one state or peoples, but of the
entire Nation, and imposes penalties
for their destruction. How many
communities in South Carolina en-
force this law? How many, in fact,
even know Of it's very existence?
Birds are of inestimable service to
mankind as destroycrs Of noxious in
sects and weed seeds. These pests
arc their natural food and will be
kept in check if only the birds are
encouraged and protected little in
stead of meeting persecution. The
loss of agriculture in the United
States from insect depreciation alone
runs into the millions of dollars an
nually. This question then affects the
farmer directly, and the city tax-pay-
er but slightly less, though it is diff
cult the general public to take such
matters ut all seriously. Let us hope
that the people of the Palmetto State
will respond while there are yet
birds to assist and save.

GARDEN TOMATOES CAN
BE sTAkEp PROBABLY

Tomato growers, including farmers
commercial growers and back yard
gardeners, again are considering the
question of whether or not to stake
their tomatoes or cultivate them and
allow them to fall on the ground, in.
quiries being received at the College
of Agriculture show. Stalking is out
of the question for commercial peo-
pie, but can be used to advantage in
the average garden, specialists on
crop at the college say. Staked
plants are easier to keep free of dis
ease, they yield more an acre and
produce a more perfect fruit than
unstaked ones.
"The cost Of stakes, the additional
labor involved and the greater num-
ber Of plants required are the limit
ing factors for profitable stalking
of tomatoes when the crop is grown
for the canning factory" N. R. ELI
OFT said. "In this case, the ground
should be cultivated thoroughly and
then mulch of hay, straw or some
similar substance placed on the
ground so that the fruit will be kept
out Of the dirt. Placing this mater
ial on the ground also helps to con-
serve moisture.
For the average garden, it may
be best to stake the plants. They
are set about three by five or four
by six feet apart and trained to a
single steu. Stakes similar to a to-
bacco stick are driven beside each
plant when these are set BY train
ing to a single stem and pruning off
all other stems and removing suck

Eugene Meyer, Jr., managing d.
rector of the War Finance Corpora
ton, spent one day last week in
Lexington as the guest of the Bur
ley Tobacco Growers Cooperative
Association, lunched with the Off
GERS and directors of the association,
purchased three Kentucky saddle
horses from w. M. Jones, of North
Middletown, delivered an address on
the aid given cooperative marketing
associations in the United States to
an audience in the ballroom of the
Phoenix Hotel, conferred with repre-
sentatives off the War Finance Cor
poration in Kentucky and left for
Chattanooga on a tour of the south,
which will take him to Atlanta, and
will include a number Of conferences
with representatives of cooperative
marketing associations in several Of
the southern states.
Mr.. Meyer declared before his ad-
dress at the Phoenix Hotel that even
IL the War Finance Corporation had
not had full confidence in the move
ment in Kentucky there would have
been no doubt on that score after he
had met the splendid men among
the leaders of the association and
who compose its board of directors.
President James c. Stone presided
at the afternoon meeting at the Phoe-
nix. He paid tribute to Judge Rob-
ert w. Bingham as the tobacco
growers friend. Judge Bingham
was cheered for minute before he
could introduce Mr.. Meyer, the au-
dience rising.
Judge Bingham told the meeting of
the growers at Elizabethown Mon
day. He said he had been told that
similar conditions existed In all the
other counties, that growers were
satisfied, and that they would not re-
turn to the old way of selling. He
said that the War Finance Corpora
tion had been of immense aid to the
hurley growers, not only in aiding in
the financing of the second payment
in part, but in the credit accruing to
the association from the backing of
such an institution as the War FL
nance Corporation in the orderly
marketing of it's crop.
Mr.. Meyer in his address said 1t

Corporation would be continued for
another year and said that recon-
mendation had been made by his Of

ers that grow out of the axis of the
leaves, it is possible to raise fruit OF
better quality than is produced when
the plants are allowed to run on the
ground.
'If the plants are set in the ground
at least five inches deep and staked
they should produce fruit until frost.
Cultivation may be continued until
the growing season is over when
stalking is practiced. When staked,
the plants are tied every six to
twelve inches, care being taken to
see that they are not tied too tight
