TASK BEYOND HER CAPACITY
Sustained Interest in Work Too Much
to Expect From Feeble-Minded
Inmate of Hospital.

In an eastern hospital for the in
sane it is a fixed policy of the insti-
tuition to keep certain Of the inmates
busy at small tasks; work has been
found to have a soothing effect. one
inmate-a woman-elected to make
braided rugs. Her work was excel
lent; she took a genuine interest in
her occupation
There has been found only one flaw
in the scheme, as one person discov-
cred who tried to buy rugs as large
as Z by 8; the hospital would not UNI
dertake such a contract. The reason
was that the woman was not to be
depended upon to finish such a large
rug.
A small rug she could finish in a
day or two without any departure
from form or pattern, but as often as
she was given a large rug to do there
would come a day before the compile
ton Of the task when she would be
less calm and composed than was de-
sirable. The result would be a star
Ting patch of color or eccentriclty in

ly discovered the margin of safety and

Tribute to the Candle

A clever writer pays tribute to the
candle in the following: "All down the
years it has trailed it's lovely light. 1t
has burned before affairs in old cathe-
drals, illumined banquet halls In old
palaces, and has ever niche in the
heart Of man.
"In England the candles waited l.
stately rows on hail tables for gallants
to hand the ladies at retiring time to
light them upstairs, and it Is said that
Washington observed this quaint Gus.
tom at Mount Vernon, lighting his
guests to their bedroom door.
"Candle-lighting time in New Eng
land breathes the fragrance Of bay
berries and brings back visions of colo
NAL halls and kitchens and demure
maidens in cap and kerchief. The fame
Of many a beauty OF the past might not
have lived had it not shone by candle

The Country Child's Development.

There is a great deal of complaint
from city schools about the constant
loss of energy and health by school
children, owing to many social en-
gagements and late hours. These
city kids may enjoy this fun, but
parents know that they are risking
their future and skating on the thin
ice of dissipation.
The country children get their en-
joyment primarily in out door lie
and sports. They have pleasant
social occasions, but they are not so
numerous as to interfere with work
and sleep. AS a consequence the
average country child attends to his
school work better thar the average
city child, and his health is not
hazarded by over excitement and
late hours. This is one reason why
country children grow up better
equipped for life than city children.

The Lakes and the Future.

How many counties are watching
out for the future rights Of the pub
lie to reach and enjoy the beautiful
inland lakes?
The condition found in Waukesha
county where, according to the coun-
ty engineer, public access to the
lakes IS gradually being eliminated
by private encroachment, obtains in
other thiekly settled counties. This
must be combated, and Waukesha
county is to be commended for TAX
ing the leadership H. the move to
see that highways, which have been
laid out so that they come ia con
tact with the lakes, be not crowded
back until land occupied by private
individuals intervenes between the
roadway and the lakes.
But what about future access to
the beautiful lakes in the newer
counties of the north? These can
be reached almost at will now, lust
as could the lakes in the Waukesha-
Oconomowoe district once? But the
day will come when that will not be
possible-the day when northern
Wisconsin is fully settled.
Now is the time for the county
boards to buy land on these lakes
to insure the public of the future
delightful gathering places. That
land need not be developed now. 1t
can lie unused until it is needed.
But if such action is taken, the high
way engineers in these counties,
some day, will not have to measure
in feet and inches to see whether
they can reach the lakes at points
Of contact along narrow roadways.
Instead they will have broad strips
Of land fronting on the lakes about
which there can be no question.
Imagine a county of the future in
northern Wisconsin with such gath
ering places on a dozen of its most
beautiful lakes. Think what it will
mean locally and to the great body
of tourists who will drive into those
regions. Isn't it worth thinking
about now? And worth spending a
few dollars now to Milwaukee

Speaking Without Introdnctions

The complaint is often made
against men who run for public Of
flee, that they are not approachable
and affaole. Some men do not
usually speak to people they meet re-
gularly until they are introduced in
a formal way
When such a man runs for office,
he finds he would have more friends
if he had previously been less formal
in his habits. The idea that people
are not to speak to each other with
out being introduced leads to much
stiffness and it causes misconcep-
tions. People get the reputation
for being proud and aristooratie.
when they are merely shy and fear
full of giving offense.
When two men or two women be-
come familiar with each others
faces. they will save embarrassment
and broaden their friendships by
letting down the barriers of reserve
and getting acquainted. This habit
makes life in a new community far
pleasanter for strangers. The case
where men and women meet is diff
ferent, yet people who are not look
ing for flirtations sometimes make
1t mistake in being too formal

not set impossible goals which are
beyond its reach, but it will try TO

reasonable program that live

complish and then il will work with
united energy to get those, things

In the effort for Improvement,
there must always be some dis
appointments and failures. But the
town that sets certain people to work
to accomplish certain well defined
ends, is going to come good deal
nearer accomplishing those gains
than the old time country town which
just drifted along without effort to
improve civic conditions or secure
better industries and business
methods and facilities.

The Country's Educational

People sometimes think that they
get much greater advantages for
self improvement by moving to
cities. They look at the great city
libraries, and think what wonder
full time they will have among all
those books,
But if they move to such a city,
they often find that It takes them so
long to visit such a library and take
books from it. that they rarely avail
themselves Of the privilege.
In the country, they exchange
books and magazines with intimate
friends. and can have all they can
read Of the best literature for

pay for street car fares in the city.
Ii is the country people to-day who
are doing the best literary study.
