The Child End His A B C's.

One rlotheI says:
Many Of the best parents make the
mistake of trying to teach their chill
dren their letters before they enter
school. These parents do not realize
that methods have been so completely
changed since we started to school
that a child is often handicapped by
knowing his A E C's and how to spell
Cat and rat. So unless We are
thoroughly acquainted with these
modern methods we will probably
hinder where we tried to help. If we
just let the child start his reading and
writing when he enters school at 6
we will be amazed at the rapidity of
his progress.

 The prospect for good weather induced thousands Of women to make their appearance in the gay frocks which the downpour on derby day compelled them 10 hide under raincoats.
 The Oaks is at a mile and half and the stakes 2,0o0 pounds with extras. There was little betting on the event

From that point on the match became a display of Nor gan's skill and an exhibition of Sul1ivan's gamenoss.
