SERVANT PROBLEM HERE
JUST CONSIDER GERMANY
Berlin Mistrsssss Haze to Pay
$3.50 a Month to Keep Maid!

BERLIN, July 6y-German housewives
are looking about for ways to keep their
cooks and maids House servants are
organized IN Germany and every now
and then present new demands. They
all have their Sundays and one after
noon in the week. But their wages seem
ridiculously low to an outsider. Some
get $3.50, $50 marks. month, or at
most $3.50.
What is Germany coming tor one
German housewife asked dispairingly.
1--WE must pay our cook all of 81
month"
Wages at this level, even though
board and keep are included. are not
enough to hold servants when factories
and outside competition begin. Already
many servants have returned to the fac
tories. Here they can earn the mag
nificent wage OF Sc month. Others
have gone abroad.
More than 10000 maids have entered
Holland in the last two years. Many
who did not have nxcd places fell irto
unscrupulous hands. But most of them
feel rich at wages Of $40 month.
Contemplation Of this housemaids
exile finally aroused German house,
wives. They induced the German Gov.
crnment to make 1t difficult for servants
to get passports. But this did not stop
the housemaids. Those who could not
go through the gate went under the
fence.

Painless Education.

When a man whose intellectual
processes possess the clarity and
vigor characteristic of Secretary of
State HUGHES says something about
values in education and methods OF
mental training it is worth while to
listen. Mr. HuGHEs in a recent ad-
dress directed some pertinent criti-
cism at the extremists in education.
Although he condemned the senti.
mentalist and the materialist as
equally dangerous, he emphasized the
Importance of discipline.
The sentimentalist in education,
whose regard for discipline is slight,
is obsessed by the idea that the proc
ess Of being educated must be made
as pleasant and painless as possible.
He is determined to seek out AMI
recognize the individual bent in
every child. These are laudablo
aims but, as Mr.. HUGHES says, they
must be watched or they will defeat
the specific aim of education, which
is to train the mind, not merely to
amuse It,
"The primary lesson for the citizens
Of democracy Is self-control." said
Mr.. HUGHES, land this is achieved
