THE MENACE OR PRIVATE
REFERENDUMS

"The taking of nationwide polls
under private auspices may be a
menace to Democratic government
for the following reasons:
First, Such referenda being cost
ly will be taken not simply when a
considerable portion of the voters
call for them, but when some private
interest with abundant financial re-
sources deems the time favorable to
take them;
Second, The referendum is taken
without the safeguards which should
make it fair and authoritative;
Third, Once taken the interests
which it favors will argue from it as
if it were an authentic and official
disclosure of voter opinion;
Fourth, when the result of such
a referendum is adverse to a law it
will be used to paralyze the law-en-
forcing agencies, to justify law
breaking, and as an excuse for local
notification. Statement by DR.. Ed
ward A. Ross, noted professor of So
GEOLOGY, in a letter addressed to the
of the National Education

TEMPORARY PASTURES FOR
SHEEP

A system of temporary pastures
for sheep utilizes lands of low fer
tility and at the same time insures
a revenue from them without much
expense for commercial fertilizer.
Soybeans are one of the best tenn
porary pastures for sheep where the
soil is thin. Wheat, where it can be
grown successfully, provides better
winter and early spring pasture than
rye. Oats and field peas sowed to-
gether make an excellent spring
pasture for sheep. On fairly fertile
land rape is the most economical
forage. Alfalfa or sweetclover is
good pasture for sheep, but it is
necessary to guard against bloat. In
some regions alfalfa pasture is quite
likely to cause bloat while in other
regions there is little or no danger
of alfalfa causing blOat in sheep.

enjoy without the risk and strug gle, all the satisfactions which they are afraid to pursue in real life.
 Of course the make-b believe of all normal play is in itself a form of escape from the limitations of being a child in a world of grownups.
 Insofar az escapes make the ordi- nary hardships of childhood more bearable they act a d safety valve, but when they form an increasingly large share of the child's play life they are to be regarded as a symp- tom of maladjlstment and unhap- piness.
 The cure lies not in removing from him the satisfactons of fan tasy. but in making reality easier for him to cope with and more in- tcrestine.
 Such. a child needs especially re- lief from whatever emotional strain may exist in connection with family relationships.

ing care of Mary is all right as a theory, but you know that Mary has just two possibilities for happiness marriage to the man she loves or her career. Philip Veritzen's flam- ing sword bars her from either. You cannot make up to her for that. And you also know how high-spirit-' eG and sensitive Noel it. If he can get-not a gift from his father - but the release of the money which belongs to him, which was his mothers, it will mean the salvation of his self-respect and his ambi- ton. And, again, only Philip Verit- zen stands in the way"
 Seems to me a simple problem" Dicky growled. "Gunmen are cheap, understand. Why not have the old buzzard bumped off"
 T have considered it." told him, laughing, but it is really too risky, for the person behind the bumper. No, I'm afraid we must get at 1t from another angle, and that's what I want to ask you"
 T suppose you want to exercise your well-known inflooence,' he said with a sheer which I ignored.
 If I have any, yes,' I answered, just as Lillian does" I brought up my friends name as one might bring up a. stack Of reserve ammu- milton. knowing his respect for her opinions. and his long standing af- lection for her.
 How to Handle VeritDen?
 You know we've all agreed that Mir. Veritzen has been like an in- sane person in his behavior toward Mary and Noel" I went on steadily. Since his return, he has been less venomous, less truculent, when their names are mentioned. Whether this is because he is returning to sanity. We do not know. He may be actu- ated by affection for Noel or fear of what Noel can do with those scurrilous letters he sent to him and to Mary"
 That's where the shoe pinches, | all right Dicky interposed
 Perhaps. and we would be very | foolish if we did not take advantage of it. But you know very we'll that | he is as obstinate and hot-headed as some other people I might men, tion-'" I smiled at him-"and if he thought he was being threatened he would run amuck again - or at least Lillian thinks so. She says there is but one way to handle him at this juncture-when his anger against Noel and Mary appears to be sottnning-"
 And that is?" Dicky queried as paused.

IMPY FALLS IN LOVE
By Thornton W. Burgess
In anger there is seldom gain, But often rot little pain.
 -Old Mother Nature

Impy the black Chipmunk didn't know what was the matter with him. Something was wrong, but he didn't know what. He lost his appe- tite. Hs had more dreams than usual and, curious enough, these dreams were all about Miss Frisky, the pretty little Chipmunk whose acquaintance he had recently made 1mpy would start out to get some thing to eat and the first thing he knew he would be looking for lit tic Miss Frisky instead of for some thing to eat. Whenever he found her, he would be supremely happy. When he failed to find her, every thing seemed wrong.
 Now. little Miss Frisky was very shy. She was tirnid. Impy wasn't the least bit bashful. but little Miss Frisky was bashfulucss itself. She never would let Imoy come very near her. The instant he attempted to approach her, she would run away. Then 1mpy would fly into a terrible rage; that is, he would sometimes. He would become very, very angry. Other times he would be most forlorn and slowly go back home, looking as if he had lost his last friend.
 Now, all such things have q meaning. Perhaps you know what that meaning is. In Impys case it meant that he was in love with lit- tie Miss Frisky. He didn't know he was in love, but he was. If she came over near him and sat long enough to talk to him a few min utes, he was supremely happy. If she just flirted that pretty little tail ot hers in a saucy manner and ran away, the day was spoiled for him. He looked for her the first thing in the morning and he looked for her the last thing before going to bed at night
 A great idea occurred to Impy. Yes, sir, a great idea occurred to 1mpy. He would invite little Miss Frisky to see his new home, of NHiNil 4!c NdS So proud. 90 the next time Miss Frisky had courage enough to let him talk to her. he invited her to come to visit his new hcme. Its a very fine home" said Impy. T don't believe you've ever seen a nicer one. I made it all my self. l had no help at all. It's got g. bedroom and two storerooms, and I don't believe you ever would find the doorway. You see. it's beau- tifully hidden"
 "Yes, I know it is," said little Miss Frisky. Tt is very nicely hid den. I couldn't have hidden it bet ter myself
 Impy opened his eyes wide. What do you know about it?" he demanded
 "Oh, I found it long ago" re- piled little Miss Frisky in a most demurN way
 You should have seen the look on Impy's face. T don't believe it." said he.
 Now, that wasn't at all polite on Impy's part, Little Miss Frisky lock- I'd offended. I don't ask you to

Escapes By Alice Judson Peale

When, for one reason or another, children find life too hard they de- Velop what psychologists call "es- oapes' from reality. That is. they shut out unpleasant facts by run hing away from them, or by pre- tending that things are as they wish them to be.
 Perhaps the most familiar form Of escape in young children is in the invention of imaginary people.
 The lonely child invents an ideal playmate. The child who is jealous or ssho is subjected to frequent harsh punishment invents a scape- goat individual on whom he may vent his own suppressed wishes to inflict pain and to fight back.
 Children who have difficulty in social adjustments or who are trou- bled by feelings of inferiority which make them afraid 10 compete in sports, often take refuge in books

 I experienced the mental state known as being on nettles" while waited for Dicky's reply to my re- quest that we sit down at one of the tables in the deserted dining room of the hotel while he listened to me without comment. His was so pre- cariously balanced a prood that a straw might change it. But his reply was prompt--and complaisant.

 But 1 had made up my mind to stake everything upon a frank ap- peal to my husband. and I put my elbows upon the table, rested my chin upon my intertwined fingers and looked steadily into his eyes.
 "Dicky," I began slowly, T think we all agree that the affairs of Noel and Mary are in a precarous condition

 grinned back at him, flushing at his teasing, but went on steadily
