CARVING SEA SHELLS

There is an old song about "She
Sells Sea Shells by the Sad Sea
Shore" but it remained for Maxim A.
Propp, of West Maple avenue, to put
the song to actual truth. Mr.. Prop,
a young man in years, goes to the
beach front almost every clear day
and gathers baskets of sea shells.
Only certain varieties appeal to him
and the others are passed by, appa-
rently unnoticed. He then takes his
collection to his cottage where he puts
in many hours each day carving and
polishing the various shells. Some of
them he turns into pin cushions by
means of velvet pads. Others are
painted in oil colors and under his
manipulation become neat ash trays.
Others make dresser trays, and in fact
innumerable articles come from his
hands as a result of his work. You
ask: "What about the song and Sell
ing the Shells?'" That m later.
Mr.. Propp intends opening a shop on
the boardwalk this summer where he
will dispense his novelties to the pub
lie and after seeing some of his she'll
handicraft we do not doubt but that
the summe visitor will jump at the
opportunity to carry home a practical
souvenir of the shores of Five Mile
Beach.

There are two classes of mothers
who need to utilize kindergarten prin-
ciples in the home; those who have
children in the kindergarten, that they
may cooperate with the teacher in
her methods for development of those
children; and those living where no
kindergarten is yet established and
who realize the need of making the
most of the golden, quickly speeding,
formative years, while still %endeavor-
ing to secure a kindergarten at the
earliest possible moment. Too much
stress cannot be laid upon the impor-
lance of this ~pre-school period. Some
child psychologists tell us that the
trend of the child's character is deter
mined during the first six years. In
any event the problem of keeping the
runabout baby happy and busy is the
largest one which must be confronted
in the home. The average mother has
no training for this job. She does one
of three things: mandates her child
with a flood of "don'ts"; devotes her
self to his amusement to the detri-
ulOhI VI HIS ma dCtSI, VI lSdNSo nllu
absolutely to his own devices, pro-
vided he does not bother" her. By
the use of kindergarten methods the
mother can so direct legitimate child
activity that the child's character will
be strengthened while she is left with
uninterrupted periods for her own in
terests and for household duties.
By way of illustration, consider the
picture resultant from a rainy day in
the average home. Its high lights
show tired whining children, a fretful,
ne~rve-frazzled mother, and disorderly
rooms. Contrast that picture with
this of the home in which the mother
has a working knowledge of kinder
garten plans.
Drizzle! Drizzle! Drizzle! Drip!
Drip! Drip! Mothers eyes searched
the horizon in vain for a tiny speck
of blue. Undoubtedly this early morn
ing shower was the beginning of an
all day downpour, and baby Marjorie
was wailing:
NASTY old rain! Keeps baby in
the house. No, 1 don't like my dol
lies. Tired of my tea-set. Please
read me lots and lots of stories"
Mother, keenly conscious of heaped-
up tasks, restrained the impulse to
exclaim: stop bothering me or I'll
put you back to bed"

Cape May Breaks Losing Streak in
Third Game with Wildwood

After losing two straight games
with Wildwood the Cape May basket
ball team played the third contest on
the floor of the City Pier at Cape May
on Thursday night of last week and
downed the w. A. c.. with a 1895
score. The result of this game was a
surprise to the crowd that witnessed
the exhibition, but no doubt the great
est surprise was that suffered by the
PLAYERS of the w. A. G. The ease with
which Cape May had been defeated in
the two previous games this season
made them feel very confident of max
ing this game a three straight victory.
Can May had prepared somewhat for
the game and had added Miller, a for
mer Atlantic City player, to their
lineup. That this addition is a good
one is evidenced by the fact that Mil
Ter not only did good work at center
but also dropped in five field goals for
the Cape May outfit. The score was:

BOATS FOR BABY
BY Martina Gardner Owen

She knew that Marjorie was not
naughty, that she merely needed to
have her activities wisely directed.
She knew, too, that she could easily
afford to devote ten minutes to this
purpose. She cuddled the disconso-
late midget ON her lap and read a
three minute story. Then she said,
firmly:
mo more now, dear. Mother is
very, very busy. She must shell the
peas for dinner and you may have the
pods for boats. See, here is a shiny
pan of water on the oilcloth. Here is
your rubber apron. And there are
toothpicks. Open the pod, so. Put
a bit of the toothpick in for a seat
and to hold the sides apart. Away
it goes across the ocean. Now an
other. Where is it going and what
does it carry?"
Mothers fingers flew nimbly while
they talked. They decided that the
first boat was loaded with presents for
poor children; that the next was
bringing oranges for M~arjorie's break
fast. The morning harmony was re-
stored. Baby was busy and happy.
She was learning to conquer condi-
tions. Her imagination was being
trained as well. And the difference
between an unframed and a trained
imagination is the difference between
the man who is content to remain a
~hod-carrier and the one who could
visualize and plan the Panama Canal
before a spadeful of earth had been
turned.

the LaSalle boys, they who hold rec
ords of great prowess in school
basketball of the year in their vicinity,
stood not a chance against the high
school boys of Wildwood, who let
them get but one field goal through
out the entire game. The remainder

Broadway Cycle Club Falls Before
w. A. c.

The basketball team of the Broad
way Cycle Club, of Philadelphia, made
wildwood "The Sport Center" on Sat
urday night when they came here to
meet the w. A. G. five and, incident
ally, to go down to defeat before the
hands of the locals. Van Austin, who
played several games with Wildwood
last winter, was a member of the
Philadelphia quintette, but failed to
show any wonderful playing. In fact
his quick temper and poor playing
made him the goat" and he was
guyed and booed from all parts of the
building. Esling starred for Wild
wood, playing one of the best games
he has played in sometime. He not
only scored a number of goals from
the center of the floor, but also got
into the fracas and was in action al
most throughout the entire evening.
Cummins, who substituted for War
rington in the second half, played a
good game, landing three field goals
during his time in the cage. Delaney
and Walker both scored seven points
for the "Wac's." c. Howard Topham
refereed the game and did it well, al
though the visitors became angered
at one or two Of his decisions and the
game looked as though it was going
to be turned into a debating contest.

team defeated the Wildwood Juniors
with a 1925 score. The lineups were:

SWEDEN WILL COPY
AMERICAN HIGHWAYS s

Stockholm-The complete modern
ization of Swedish roads, made desir-
able by the rapidly increasing auto
mobile traffic, is being undertaken in
earnest. The latest significant step
in this movement is the establishment
of "Good Roads Institute - on the
initiative of the Royal Automobile
club, which is now celebrating its
twentieth anniversary.
American highways will be studied
as models for Swedish construction,
and a Swedish expert highway engi-
neer, Mr.. Paul Wretlind, is already
in the United States for that pur-
pose.
While the Royal Automobile club
has taken the initiative in establish
ing the Good Roads Institute. several
other organizations and government
departments are interested, according
to Captain A. NordIander, general sec
retary of the club. Thus the board
of directors will have representative
from the Department of Roads and
Waterways, the Government Testing
Institute the Academy of Engineering
Sciences, the Swedish archaeological
association, and the Swedish Roads
association. The first financing has
been made by the Royal Automobile
club, but further support is expected
from the road-using public in general

BASEMENT FLOODED BUILDING
EMPTIED DURING AFTERNOON

The water which partially filled
the basement of the Engineering
building on the University of Idaho
campus yesterday morning was
pumped out during the afternoon and
evening, and work begun this morn
ing to clear up the refuse and mud
which had been deposited on the
floor and over the supplies and fix
lures stored there.
The damage it is thought will not
be as high as ives anticipated, the
water not having reached the more
valuable chemical supplies stored in
the basement by the chemistry de-
partment of the university. No ac-
curate estimate, however, can be
made until a thorough check is made.
The presence of the water is not yet
thoroughly understood by the offic-
ials of the building.
