poor material for draperies of this type,
the fabric. of course, depending upon
the type of the room.
The only difference in the making
up of these various materials is that
the satins or silks should be lined, while
the cotton ones may be left with a
single thickness.
The lining adds to the beauty of silk
and at the same time protects it from
the burning rays of the sun.
One thing to remember about the
making of ruff1ed curtains is to have
the ruffles at least three inches wide
and generously full. They may be of
the same shade of material as the
drapery or of contrasting shade.

Mantell was not only disting-

Atlantic Highlands, N. j., known as
"Brucewood," is a marvel.
The great tragedian was thrice
married. His first wife divorced
him and for years he was unable
to appear in New York because he
refused to pay alimony. His sec.

Marie Booth Russell, died in 1912
and the same year he married Miss

ZEPPLIN'S FAILURE

~ UT of one mans failure comes anothers
success! This was exemplified again last
week when the flight of the Graf Zepplin
recalled the first effort to Count Ferdinand Zep-
pin to make lighter than-air-craft.
His first crude attempts were made away
back in 1868 when he was young German sol
der attached to the Fort Smelling forces as an
observation officer. He saw then that an air
craft could be of invaluable service in times of
war. With the help of the military tailor at the
Fort crude bag was sewed up, filled with gas,
and in it the young Count rose few feet and
stayed few minutes-not much higher nor much
longer than that!
But it was enough to whet his ambition and
he went and until he had spent all of his
private fortune of $750,0OO and was living in
modest cottage, supported by the largess Of
friends and working constantly to complete his
dream of a craft that would move through the
air, propelled by high power motor and upheld
by huge gas bags. He saw this machine factor
in war, this overshadowing in his mind the i'm
portance of his invention as a commercial and
social medium of transportation.
In 1917 he died with his dream unrealized,
his invention incomplete his money gone and
only the confidence of a few true friends left
to comfort him-not much one would say to COM
pensate for the life of thought and work and pa
tient waiting.
But the other day the Graf Zepplin floated
away from Germany toward the American shore
line carrying not one person but sixty. And the
dream was realized and the vision come true.
Out of one mans failures comes anothers
success. Out of mans waiting comes an
others winnings Out of one mans death comes
another the life Of future men, Such is the
cycle of the universe.

A NEW BOOK

~ vital Importance to the children of Red
wood county and indeed to the whole
state of Minnesota is the course OF
study just issued by the state Department of
Education. Following this course which is clear
ly and concisely outlined gives the child in the
ungraded and semi-graded school the same well
arranged series of lesson with the same valuable
sequence as is afforded the pupil in the town and
city schools.
No longer does the rural child spend just so
many minutes on arithmetic each day all up
through the grades. Through careful and
haustive surveys of the whole educational field,
experts have determined in which grades arith-
metic shall be stressed where it shall have the
maximum of time and attention and where it
shall be made secondary to the "tool subjects"
among which reading and speaking and writing
English rank first This is just one of the old
time and useless traditions which are upset in
the new volume which affords complete hand
book for the use of teachers.
But to put such book in the hands of
teachers without preparing them for its use
would be useless and futile thing. So into each
county, as county institutes are held this fall,
will come member of the state department of
education who will explain its use and show
teachers how to adapt its many phases to the
needs of their individual districts and classes.
Wherever there is teachers training class the
young people in next years "crop of teachers
will be taught how and when to use it. Teachers
Colleges, preparing teachers for work in the rur-
al schools, will use it asa part Of their course
of preparation.
Through all of these processes the books be-
comes the invaluable agent of better education
processes, a thing that could not be hoped for it
had not the people compiling it expended gener-
ously upon it their intelligent understanding of
the requirements of education and their ability
to point out the means of meeting such require
ments. The book an outgrowth enlargement and
improvement of the last course of study which
was put into the schools five years ago, is q
monument to the men and women who made il
and to the teachers who supplied the material
upon which it is based 1t is symbol of educa-
tons future aims.

Right of Convictions

If politics and secticnalism have
blinded us to the greatness of some
great men, they have made us inn
agine the greatness of some little
men.
On what other ground can you
explain the presence Of a Helm in
the United States Senate or a Jack
son in the Governors chair of In
diana
The Senate walks out on Helm,
refusing to pay him the courtesy of
listening to another anti-Catholic
TRADE, While Jackson goes on trial
on charges of political corruption,
but there are thousands ready to
cheer for each simply and solely be-
cause of intolerance and provincial
ism.
Granting that it is right to have
convictions, even to the extent Of
narrowness, is it right to measure
men by such a yardstick, especially
men who aspire to hold public Of
flee and who must take an oath to
deal alike by all, regardless of race,
creed or color?
Do you rate a ship captain by his
religion, a bricklayer by his ances-
try or a carpenter by his creed?
Why not think of public service In
the same way, measuring men, not
by the church they attend or who
their grandfathers were, but by
their fitness for the job?
