Ordinarily Mrs. Quacll is not quick-tempered, but. as she said. al- most any one would be quicll-tem- pered if they were stumbled over: and Peter Rabbit had to admit that his was so. He had stumbled over her as she sat on her nest hidden under big plant of skunk cabbage. Mrs. Quacl had promptly rtruch him with her bill and beaten him with her wings; and at, the same time given Rcter a terrible fright But when Mrs. Quack found out who it was who had stumbled over her, and Peter Rabbit found out who it was he had stumbled over there were no longer any hard feel ings.
 Where is Mr. Quack2" demanded Peter.
 "Oh. I don't know" replied Mrs Quack carclessly. Probably he isn't far away. Perhaps he has gone down to the Big River. He goes down there frequently It is just nice swim down the Laughing Brook. l don't sec much of him these days. But then, I don't want to-

 Peter grinnod. You certainly did give me scare. Mrs. Quack." said be- F"You sec. il hadn't entered my head that you W>.c anywhere about. l thought you wcnt with the rest Of the flock when they moved North
 "Didn't l tell you that Mr. Quack and l had decided to slaya" inquired Mrs. Quack.
 Peter nodded. "fou did" said h. but when l came over hero the ncNl night you were nowhere 10 be seen So I thought you had changed your mind and gone with inc others. You didn't tell mo that you were tntcnd- ing 10 build your nest here"
 Mrs. Quach rhucElcd. "Wr arc mol in the habit of tollin~ secrets like that" said she. "Whru the rest of the flock started North wc went T little way Withthcm. just to a"r them we'll started.

 Educational leaders everywhere are realizing that the emphasis in the majority of schools is still laid upon marks is directly oppos-. cd 10 the real aims of education.
 The monthly report card with its As and B's and C's and D's may represent to parents and teachers an objective measure of the child H scholastic progress. but its effect upon the child himself is to tend 10 make him more interested in marks than in the things he studies.
 Especially is this system harmful when parents arc over anxious to have their children make good rec ords.
 The child knows that it is oy marks that his school work is be- ing judged and it is for marks tha. he works.
 Parents can do much to counter ate the undesirable influence of the marking system. There need be little discussion at home about th2 report card.
 If Teddy seems 10 be slipping iH his arithmetic do not take tho mat , ter up with Teddy in q serious way. but instead go promptly to his | teacher and plan with her the bcst means of helping him. If his report card is unusually l good it will notN~hurt to let him feel that you appreciate the effort and good work it stands for. But do not let him feel that he has set q standard that he must now live LID 10 or sink in your esteem. Let him feel always that you arc concerned less with his marks than with what he is actually learning. AS far as possible supplement his cnthusiasms with morc knowlcdG !,

ADVISE PERMANENT
 BODY FOR TRAFFIC
New England Railroad Commit tee Urges Systematic Study

Boston, Sept. g (UP)--A per- manent all-New England traffic or. ganization should be established to promote the mutual interests of the six states in matters pertaining to ansportation, in the opinion of the New England railroad committee.
 This recommendation was made in a preliminary report of the coni- mittee- which was appointed several months ago by the New England governors to study the advantages or disadvantages of railroad consoli- dations.
 Under the plan suggested, the permanent organization would be financed by funds appropriated bs each New England state.
 The first task of such a bureau" the report said, would be ap ex- haustive study of the present situa- ton, to be made in close coopera- tion with the New England rail- roads, and all the traffic agencies of our commercial and individual in- dustries."
 The committee reserved final de- cision as to the feasibility of consoli eations involving New England rail- roads, indicating it's verdict on this subject would be rendered in an- other report to be made next winter.

DENIES HE
 HELPED DlSTILLERS
Says He Is Amazed At Major
 CampbelPs Claims

Washington, Sept. g (UP)-Vice- President Curtis issued an indig- nant denial yesterday after publica- ton of a copyrighted article in the Washington Post in which Major Maurice Campbell, former New York prohibition director. linked his name with the exertion of off, cial influence in behalf of alcohol withdrawal permits.
 Curtis, in written statement. expressed "amazement' and made general denial that his influence as a senator prior to his election as vice president, was used for the purpose of securing alcohol per mits, as alleged by Major Camp bell"
 Campbell's article, the first off, series on prohibition enforcement conditions in the east, said the vice presidents campaign manager in New York, backed by his influ- ence in Washington, made my life miserable with pressure to issue all cohol permits to companies which in my view were dubious"
 The text of Vice President Curtis statement follows:
 T was greatly amazed to read the statement in today's Washing ton Post in Major Campbells ar ticle on prohibition enforcement, that I, while senator. used my in- f1uence in Washington, and caused him to issue alcohol permits for I have never used my influence, either directly or indirectly to have such a permit issued, and if my name were used by anyone, it was done without my knowledge or consent.
 T did not at any time back cam paign managers or anyone else, by my influence in Washington for the purpose of securing alcohol permits, as alleged by Major Campbell"
