when the inevitable crime occurs.
we yell to the high heavens and cram

I do not ask If this is Christianity;
I merely ask IL 1t is common sense.
In a recent article in the California
State Board of Health Bulletin. DR..
Robert Louis Richards, pleading the
necessity of psychopathic hospitals
for detectives, says: 1T is estimated
that California loses $2,000.000 each
year because of retarded pupils. 1t Is
now known that there is a problem
of studying the individuals men,
tality. and not simply OF mental test
ing. Psychopathfc hospitals are nee
essary for the proper solution Of this
problem.
criminality, are essentially problems
Of individual mentality and can never
be efficiently approached without the
means furnished by the psychopathic
hospitals. Their financial costs are
admittedly enormous. Can we, then,
afford to be without psychopathic
hospitals? Shall we continue in
definitely to increase our state hos
pital expenses? Shall we lose S2.00O.-
900 annually in our schools and make
no effort to avoid this loss and re-
store these pupils to their proper
educational status? Shall we simply
remove the social offender. the drug
addict. the criminal, from our sight
and not study the reasons for their
existence? Or shall we use good
business judgment, stop the waste, in
crease our production and insure
against unavoidable catastrophes?"

BEGIN NOW ON FAMILY PLANS
OF CHRISTMAS FOR. CHILDREN
Real Household Tragedy When Tree Is
Omitted From Program-All Kinds
of Attractive Features.

HIlSTMAs is for the children
first. last and always. Adult
plans for this season should
receive attention only after
all plans for the children are COM
plete. If possible. have some kind of
y Christmas tree. 1t is real tragedy
| to the woods and find one II you buy
ria.lt when every other child in the
neighhorhood has one. The decora-
tions and gifts for the tree need not
cost much. and the tree itself may
cost You nothing if you take a trip
to the woods and nd one. If you buy
one. it will cost you much less if you
get it early instead OF waiting until
the day before Christmas to buy it.
1t is astonishing the amount of hap
piness that can be purchased in the
easements of department stores and
from lO-cent stores for so cents. You
can get dolls. balls. woolly she ep.
cows and horses. tiny cups and sau-
GERS. doll furniture. picture books.
blocks. marbles, boxes of water
pads. all sorts of games and puzzles
aud baskets and other articles too
numerous to mention.
1t takes SO much to cover the tree
that it is Il good idea to begin early
and make most of your decorations.
Then. too, by this method you will
have a tree with decorations that are
individual and not like every other
tree in the neighborhood. Lovely
decorations ar. even made for the
Tree out of different colors of paper.
Long. bright colored chains Of paper
rings fastened together and hung
from one bough to another are very
decorative. Snow ba lis made of white
TISSUE paper and icicles of silver paper
odd much to the decoration. Strings
of popcorn and little cornucopias or
NJ, bags filled with homemade mo-
laSseS candy will help to fill up bare
spaces. On the very top of the tree
could b" placed Il paper Santa Claus.
The stockings could contain a bright
red apple and an orange. a few sim
pic toys. Il box of gum drops and
some candy animals.
Value of EESshelIs.
From now on save all egg shells.
They can be made into variety of
dainty little toys by gliding the
shells. covering them with tinfoil or
tinting the edges with dyes or water
colors. transforming the shells into
chariotS on paper wheels or into
bells and hanging them to the tree
by fastening to string with bit
of sealing wax Just before Christ
HAS tiie oranges anu ieflloHS uSeO III
the house should be carefully SCOOP
ed out with a spoon. leaving the shell
as nearly whole possible. Eyes,
nose and mouth can be made in the
face of an orange or lemon. a candle
fastened in the hollow shell with its
own wax or with a bit of sealing
wax. and the result will be a tiny
Jack o lantern. which can be at
tached to the tree by wires. Very
small pumpkins or gourds can be
used in the same way. If used. they
should be placed at the bottom of the
tree. Bright new pennies hung by
sealing wax and string brighten the
tree and make inexpensive gifts for
children. Dolls can be made from

work and work and work as those
Beavers did was more than Peter could
understand. 1t was still harder to un-
derstand how Paddy and Mrs. Paddy
could get any pleasure from such hard
work as they seemed to. You see Peter
quite overlooked the fact that all winter
long they would have nothing to do but
rest. eat and sleep. whereas he would
have to spend much of his time in hunt
ing for food and worrying for fear he
would not get enough.
Peter had spent much time watching
the Beavers cut down the trees and
trim Off the branches. 1t was very in
teresting. but it was almost as interest
ing to watch them drag the branches
and logs over the new dam. and down
into the Laughing Brook on the othe,
side, and there swim away with them
One moonlight night Peter had watched
Paddy drag log over the dam and dis
appear down the Laughing Brook with
1t. Mrs. Paddy was busy cutting an
other tree. Peter sat down in the Black
Shadow just back of the dam to wait
for Paddy to come back. He knew II
would take Paddy some little time to
take that log down to the food pile in
the pond and return. so he made him
self comfortable and idly looked about
him. Across on the other side of the
Laughing Brook was a big patch OF
moonlight. Peter happened to look over
at it. In the middle Of it lay what
looked like short, rather thick log.
That's funny" muttered Peter to
himself. Eyes. sir, that's funny. 1 don't
remember seeing that log over there
before. OF course, 1t must have been
there and just didn't see it. It is
queer how fellow will look at thing
and not see it. l suppose I must have
been thinking Of other things and just
didn't notice it,
Then Peter turned his head so that
he could look down the Laughing Brook
to watch for the return of Paddy. When
he glanced over at that moonlit place
on the other side again his heart gave a
little pump. 1t seemed to him that that
log wasn't where he had last seen it. 1t
seemed to him that it was a little
nearer the Laughing Brook than it had
been before.
''Of course 1t can't be-" thought
Peter. ut Is Just my imagination. Just
the Same I can't get over the feeling
that that old log is nearer than it was
when I last looked at It"
Peter sat and stared and stared at
that log. For the time being he quite
forgot Paddy the Beaver. Suddenly
Peter received shock! Yes, sir, he
received shock! That log moved! He
was sure Of 1t. It moved forward Just
a wee bit. Peters eyes almost popped
out of his head, and 1t seemed as il his
heart was right up in his throat.

WINS COSTUME PRIZE.

WINS COSTUME PRIZE.
THE girls of Mckinley Manual
L Training School are especially
proud of the director Of their activ-
tiles, Miss Jessie Coope, who took the
prize for the most effective costume
worn at the teachers dress-up ball,
given by the Faculty Association of
Technical High School last week.
Miss Coope's costume was made of
paper, based on the prosaic foundation
Of q bungalow apron. The alternate
ruf1es were Of gray and maroon in
over red bodice. Tho most fetching
Ing to Miss Coope herself. was her
hat, which was rather suggestive Of
the dapper style in its shape and was
Of red paper decorated with gray rib
bons of paper.
Owing to the fact that this high
school specializes in teaching the
young folks domestic arts and SCI
ences. there was considerable compe-
tition among the teachers in the at
tractiveness and originality of their
costumes. 1t was, therefore. particu-
larly to Miss Coope's credit that she, a
physical training instructor in girls
athletics. should win the prize for the
best costume. The girls all say, how
ever. that 1t was undoubtedly her
charming personality that helped in
making her costume so effective.

Holiday Sandwiches.

Chop fine half a pound each OF
dates and figs. and mix with them a
small cupful of shredded cocoanut, an
equal quantity of granulated sugar
and a tablespoonful of sweet choco

cooker over the fire, and cook until
the sugar is melted. then stir in q
meats and simmer for ten minutes
Remove from the fire and beat. until
almost cold. then spread on thin
crackers and put together two and
two in sandwich fashion. These are
delicious. A thin icing can be spread
