A certain educator once stated his opinion of the ideal school. have long kept his list of standards for the perfect scholar: 'The school should turn out boys and girls who can think quickly, ac- curately and intelligently.
 They should learn to have opinions and hold to them until they are proved wrong. They should know how to make up their minds.
 "They should be cheerful and good Gloomy faces, discontented murmurings, dis agreeable and thoughtless behav- for, boorishness are beneath any self-respecting child.
 "They should be good to look at That has nothing to do with painted faces and messy hair, or | fiashy clothes. A clean skin, a free-l -limbed healthy body, glowing eyes, and shining white teeth are I within the reach of every healthy child.
 "They should be reserved enough not to gossip. The young person whose mind is messed up with trivialities, whose tongue prattles of petty personalities, is never going to pass the barriers set up to guard the elect" All Teachers Responsibility?
 What could be finer bill of character than his list? The child

 "Oh, but you will! You'll be maid of honor!"
 Thanks. My specially all ways a brides maid! It wasn't the ceremony I was thinking about. I'd like to meet your young man. Why don't you in vite him to dinner some evening soon here at the apartment?"

Such an array of jams and jellies as were on the pantry shelves Nancy's cousin had come to stay for few days with the Page fam fly. When she went out to the pantry and opened the cupboard shelves she was as excited as a young bride. You haven't much canned fruit here, Nancy, nor any canned vegetables" No, I don't believe in city folks putting those foods up. The produce is not fresh when we buy it and yet we have to pay a good price for it. I prefer to have commercially canned foods which are fresh and good. More than that, the supply of all the year round vegetables is growing, so why bother to put up a winters supply. But when it comes to relishes and jams, then, I like to use the family recipes which give us favorite dishes.

who can measure up to it would bi just about perfect.
 My own comment on these be. attitudes probably is not a worthy one, yet I feel, as this gentleman and sticking to it. Is not this composite picture of the ideal child rather tall order for the school to live up to? Where does the home come in?
 Teachers by their influence, suggestion and example can do a lot to shape the character of their pupils, but in the press of school work and long programs to be covered in the term they haven't much opportunity to go into de- tails of dress, department, and higher standards of behavior.
 believe that many parents not realizing this leave too much for the teacher. Good conduct, nice manners, clean minds, and persist ence of purpose are after all home responsibilities. It is scarcely fair to pass the responsibility to the teacher.
 think the poor soul who wrote to the teacher upon receiving q protest about Johnny's dirty clothes, that please she sent him to school "to be learnt and not sniffed at," had at least some idea of where that responsibility lay although she neglected her part of the bargain.
 But the truth is we expect the school to make paragons of our youngsters while half the time we lie down on our job at home.

That is a strange and doctrine and yet one that

conduct of industry required keeping the
scale as low possible Bitter battles have been fought be-
capital and labor over that very question The
ployer wanted to pay little as possible to those who
abored for him; the laboring wanted large wage
as he could force from the employer
How different is the idea of today that is supplantng
that conception of the relation between capital and labor
has become almost accepted axiom big business
in America that national prosperity is largely dependent or
reasonably high wage scale All during this present de-
preston industrial leaders have insisted that the scale
be reduced and the Importance Of this position has like
wise been urged by President Hoover Now hears
and the contention that industry must evolve
system whereby permanent employment can be assured
to those who desire to work.
That is problem that puts tremendous challenge up
to the who leading America in industrial way
An employer may desire above all things keep his
work permanently but conditions outside his control may
make that difficult undertaking and sometimes not
only difficult but impossible industry organized today
To evolve plan whereby labor may be assured per-
employment and then introduce that plan into
