setts avenue. Last year there were

in the Massachusetts avenue build
ing. The collegiate courses given by
the Knights of Columbus School are

and the George Washington Univer-
sity as credits for the baccalaureate
degree.

can history, ancient history, argu-
mentation, arithmetic, bookk eeping,

BEAUTY CHATS
Ears and Character.

great deal of character can be
told from the ears If one is the least
bit clever. Not very much has been
written on this subject. AS general
rule large ears belong to coarse ma
lures and thick cars to brutal ones.
Small ears indicate refinement, long
ears an intellectual nature, pointed
ears a whimsical one. What is known
as good blood" or good family can
be told Better by the ears than by
any other feature, for the shape of
the ears will go down unmoditied
through many generations of a fam
lily. There, is the famous Bourbon
ear. so well known that 1t got many
descendant of that royal family in
trouble after the French Revolution.
Whatever you can do to your other
features, you can't change the shape
of your ears. But if they're ugly you
comfort; and if they do not lie fiat
you can train them into position by
wearing earcapS at night, or by hav-
ing a simple and inexpensive opera
tion performed.
Many cases of apparent deafness
are due to nothing but badly cared
for ears. Lumps of hardened wax
collect in the canal, shutting out
sound and sometimes producing &C.
zemas or erythema Of the surround
ing skin. In any such trouble go at
once to an ear specialist, in any case
go once a year or once In six months
and have the ears sy rfnged; or go to
your doctor. He will pour a little
oxygenated boracic water into each
ear. After this has been 10 minutes

A Dangerous Gift.

quick tongue is dangerous
gift 1t leads children into trouble.
When they are little, admiring friends
get them to show off bit and ap-
plaud theiE saucy answers and laugh
at their pointed retorts. But child
has little judgment and less knowl-
edge of the world and soon that
pleasant tongue of his is going to
bring him into disfaNor.
Benny had cultivated quick tongue
which Travelled more rapidly than
his mind. So when an elderly lady
called at the house and asked him to
please ask his mother If she would
see Mrs. Grant, he looked up from
self. why don't you? You're old
enough Later on he found that he
had made a mistake. The lady was
somebody that counted a whole lot
and she resented the smart speech
deeply.
"Of course. he never should have
said such a thing, but then one would
think that she would remember that
he is only a child"
Why should a child talk like that ?
Most people think of a child as a
lovely little soul, unspoiled and sweet
and loving. To be met with an af-
front such as that is staggering. All
regard for the child and it's family
is threatened. The usual conclusion
is that if the younSter had not been
encourag ged in his evidence of i'll
breeding he would not display it so
vaingloriously.
The adoiescent is not free from
this failing and sadly enough we
must confess that there is less excuse
for him. He l<noWns that il is posi-
