TASK OF SHOPPER
Forethought Necessary in Select
ing Toys for Riddles.
Articles That Lead to Constructive
Play Urged by Primary
School Teacher.

THE nice art Of toy selection. In
anticipation Of the Christmas
season, recently was discussed by a
primary teacher of the Indianapolis
Normal school before a group of
parents and teachers.
The leading thought of the lectures
was the need Of choosing playthings
that will lead the child to dramatic
or constructive play of Its own inven-
tion, and conversely. the avoidance Of
playthings that are perfect or total,
In the sense that they speak to the
child's admiration only. and suggest
to 1t nothing that means action or ef-
fort on its own part.
The toy shopper, as his task was
treated by the teacher, has more to
do than to collect at random and
take home In triumph truck load Of
baubles.
"The thought used to be-" she said.
that a child's play ought to be or
dered with view to It's preparation
for Its adult life. Girls, Of old, were
taught to sew, to make fine stitches,
such as they could put to practical
use when they grew up. Now we feel
that the eye strain and the nervous
focus required by such a task are un-
desirable. And the tendency is to
make play satisfying to the child's
wants In Its child life-to teach 1t to
make itself at home and happy in the
here and now-and to trust to that
training to prepare 1t to care for It,
self equally well In the later stages
Of Its experience"
BkTfks. tools. lumber, papers and
pencils and crayons, cloth and the raw
materials Of every art and craft are
the ideal stun for the ideal play as It

studies Of the child mind, as explained
by the speaker She illustrated point

materials.

walk from the upper fiat are to be
preferred, for several reasons, to the
kind that crack at fall of the tenn

common with many fond fathers. The
doctrine that play Is the work of
childhood, the vocation Of little people
from which they will turn, little

course, and gave to its summing up a
dignity and consequence that was not

Owing to the accidental breaking

boat, which caused the loss of all
the gasoline while on the way from

fell heavily, striking on his left side
across a log and injuring himself
severely. He was taken back to the

day morning overruled the demurrer,
as stated above. Defendants were
given ten days in which to answer
the complaint.
The Complaint
In her complaint Agnes Loret q
Day, widow of the late Eugene r. Day,
alleged that certain property belong
ing to the estate OF the deceased had
been distracted, enumerating the list
given in the original complaint filed
in the federal court and in addition
mentioned a one-sixteenth interest in
the Hercules mine, valued at half
million dollars, and the Osburn ranch,
valued at $4,000. 1t was alleged that
the first named properties had been
transferred to John II. Wourms and
that the interest in the Hercules
stands in the name Of Eleanor Day
Boyce; that the Osburn ranch was
transferred to the Standard Dairy
company at a valuation of $4,000 and
that stock in the company to the value
of $4,000 had been transferred TO
Mrs Boyce. 1t was alleged that Axel
p. Ramstedt and p. j. Maggy have
knowledge of these transfers TO John
II. Wourms and Mrs. Boyce, and of
various De eds, conveyances, contracts
and other writings which contain evil
dence tending to prove the right of
decedent to the said property The
court was therefore asked to issue CT
tations to John II. Wourms, Axel P.
Ramstedt and p. J. Maggy to appear
and answer such questions pertaining
to the property as may be put to them.
Ground of Demurrer.
In the demurrer filed with the court
1t was alleged that the facts stated
were not sufficient to justify the cita-
ton that the complaint was uncer-
tain in many particulars named that
it was deficient in not stating what
the conspiracy alleged between John
II. Wourms. E. r. Day. deceased,
Harry L. and Jerome j. Day, and how
Ramstedt and Maggy could have
knowledge of conveyances connected
with the transfer of the interest in the
Hercules mine; that said complaint
with reference 10 the Hercules inter
est is barred by the provisions of the
statutes, and the plaintiff is guilty of
laches in not asserting her claim to
the same; and finally that no inter-
rogatories having been filed, the
court is without authority to issue the
wherefore the court was
asked to dismiss the complaint
