taken. We spiders are not insects.

YOUR BEAUTY


There are lasts-and they are
neither exorbitant in price nor
hard to find, for practically all
the wise manufacturers of shoes
make them-which are the result
of scientific investigation of the
kind of shoe that gives the foot
most freedom and comfort and
does not drag it down with badly
balanced weight.
If you sensibly care for your
feet and see to it that they are
properly shod, weak ankles, fallen
arches and extreme fatigue are
probably unknown to you, even
though you may stand long hours
or tramp many miles each day.
And when your feet are COM
Portable and strong and not in
any way cramped, you are just
that much more graceful in every
movement. Your expression also
is sure to be more pleasant You

MOULDING THE CHILD


passable showing in his studies
but likes them, who continues in
a harmonious relation with his
teachers and schoolmates, who
lives amicably with his home fam
lily circle-that child is practically
certain to make a good and sue
cessful citizen.
The Coue psychology, in other
words, puts all the emphasis
upon the attitude of mind of the
child during the growing period.
1t is not the scholarly attain
ments of the teacher. 1t is not
the subject-matter OF instruction.
Any ordinary school which Of
fers reasonable variety of per-
Torrance, of play, of work, of
study, Of strenuous but happy re-
sponsibility-that school is sup
plying the sub-consciousness Of the
learner with the hidden energies
which will come out in the form
of success for the future.
= Rather than a fixed, standard
ized course of the study-and the
Prussians had one for a genera
ton previous to the war-it would
be preferable to have no course of
study. A long list of grouped
topics with wide range of choice
in each group and with only the
requirement that something be
taken from each-that would en-
able the teacher to keep the learner
in righteous, constructive atti-
tude of mind.
The night school, the business
college. the correspondence course
and the industrial practice insti-
tuition are growing by leaps and
bounds. They are all offering in
struction in what the learners
want and not in what they must
take to get through. The public
school will gradually be forced to
do likewise.

hold Management.
f" HE League of Women Voters
tells us. according to
printed statement, that the
majority of women workers en-
ployed in the United States in
other than the professions, are
between the ages of eighteen and
twenty-five years.
And another item tells us that
q group Of influential women
housewives organized for mutual
protection-had decided to boycott
certain food dealers who supplied
cafeterias and tea rooms in the
neighborhoods where thousands Of
girls are employed because these
dealers are alleged to have
charged exorbitant prices, causing
indirect gouging of these working
girls.
Surely, in these critical years,
the young working woman needs
nourishing. midday meal at a
nominal price amidst cheerful sur
roundings. Working in disor-
dered lofts and amidst other un-
attractiveness, the girl instinctly
seeks the food shop where there
is q little respite in the way of
quiet, order and comfort. And
here the gouging seems to go on.
Women are still writing to me
asking me how they may help
the community and pleasantly EN-
ploy those latent energies they
found such excellent outlet for in
the various activities of war DAYS.
How about these women organ,
izin2, hiring Il room somewhere
III the business or factory district,
donating their services and serv-
ing nourishing attractive food in
attractive surroundings at a frac-
ton above cost? Surely here is
way that women Of leisure might
profitably donate three hours on
perhaps one day of the week for
the good of these girls whose
heritage it shall some day be to
carry on@the race?
Another suggestion is that a
couple of women who are adept
at good home cooking, consider
the pronositio1 Of opening little
cafeteria by special arrangement
with firm employing many girls.

stone with little methyiated

looked to see if anyone was listen
ing-"we are perfect when we

passing through any stages of
growth. You see, most insects
in fact, all Of them-hatch as lar
vac, then have to go through sew
eral stages before they are full
grown. We don't"
We'll, 1 never heard that be-
fore said Dotty.
Then there's another thing"
added Mrs. Spider, stretching out
her legs. Count them, Eight in
all. Well, right there we beat an
insect by two. Insects never have
more than six legs. Another way
you can distinguish spiders from
insects is because our bodies are
divided into two parts. and the
bodies of insects are divided into
three. But, pshaw" she laughed,
what's the good Of having eight
legs If we don't use them to help
ourselves? So If you'll excuse me,
I'll go back to my work" And
without another word, Mrs. Spider
trotted off toward her home.
Dotty watched her until she was
out of sight aud then ran home to
ask hep mama whether what she
had just heard was true.

The school and the teacher?
The boy who goes through the
grades resisting and despising
everything is on the way TO some
kind of bolshevism.
The girl who resists instruction

wrong in adulthood.

ducing some kind of physical all

If the pupil learns to love and
respect the teacher he will ur-
consciously love and respect SIM

of adulthood.
The pupil who fears the teacher
will suffer more or less from re-
