the finishing touches to the meal.

finished, my first month OF w~ifehood. My
three-weeks' honeymoon was over, but
my hrst week as a h~ousekeeper was not
ended.
I turned from the gathering gloom
with an impulse to brighten up our
living room. As a young child, I
had seen my mother build many a fire
in an open CRATE to welcome my daddy
on q dismal evening.
But new times and new ways Of build
ing and new ideas about living had de-
prived me of a crate. My mothers ways
as a wife could not be mine. Neverthe-
less, I decided that some attractive sub
stitute for an open fire must be created
in my flat.
Ny husband, like my daddy, must
pause on the threshold to smile his
appreciation OF the rest and comfort so
obviously awaiting him.
At the far end of the room, my table
was set daintily.
I lighted the candles IN my silver
candle Notwithstanding presents.
The effect was pretty, but I was not
satisfied. I moved my few pieces Of
furniture about, finally grouped my one
large chair, a small table and tall floor
lamp conspicuously opposite the entrance
to the suite. 1 placed Jacks smoking
set near the lamp, piled bright books on
the table for color, then marched to M

ing the lessons Of the grades they have
failed to pass.
Som children are unfortunate enough
to fail a number Of times. Some OF these
may be deficient mentally, but tests have
proved that defective eyes are to blame
in a greater number Of cases than one
would suspect.
Retardation of this sort is not only a
waste Of the taxpayers money. but is a
positive detriment to the children who
become discouraged and dislike school.
Not all truants are bad. Many can be
reformed by correction Of the physical
defects which handicap their efforts to
succeed in the schoolroom.
To force such children to attend school
before their physical defects are removed
Is not only cruelty to the child but a vast
waste Of time and effort for the teacher.
No child with defective eyes uncor-
rected by glasses is In proper condition
to do the work assigned in school, and
for many a child close application TO
books involves almost uncomfortable eye
strain.
It is but a natural consequence that
such children either leave school entirely
or are retarded year after year.
When a boy or girl is bright and active
tention upon his books for any length Of
time there is sure to be something wrong
with his eyes that needs correcting i'm
mediately.
The child just starting schooI should
undergo a complete physical examination.
Better to remedy faults early.
