When Miss Rorby's little class assem-
bled about six weeks ago. scarcely one
of the children knew the use OF

know the necessity Of neatness in the

On shelves provided for the purpose

served with a morning meal OF crackers
and milk. Even small boys. with chubby

ments.
In serving the midmorning lunch
the little girls are taught TO be OF great
assistance. The tables are set properly.
and both boys and girls take part In
pouring the milk and passing around
the graham crackers.
In addition to teaching these little
ones the virtue of personal care, Miss
Rorby instructs them in putting away
playthings, courtesy toward each other
in play and the ability to concentrate
by memorizing songs. listening to stories
and cutting out pictures.
The morning passes rapidly, and each
child returning home carries back to
mother, who has accomplished many
things during her little boy or girls
absence, lesson which is bound to bear
good fruit in the school years ahead.

Temperature within the theater

In the early days of cooling
plants the tendency was to turn
them on full blast, making the
theater atmosphere some 20 or
more degrees cooler than the
sidewalk temperature. The lob
bies were kept even cooler on the
theory that an icy blast reach
ing the passerby might turn him
into a paying customer. The re-
suit of this passion for frosty
air was that when a patron came
from the tl1eater into the heat

q sitting feeling which only dis
appeared when nature made the
proper adjustments.
Today it is found that the most
satisfactory temperature differ.
