UNION MADE HATS AT sYMoNs

Synons, Veins, and Bouchers were
mentioned as stores carrying union
made hats, after it had been announced
to the unions that one OF the men had
had difficulty in securing this type OF
union made garment at one OF the

The Montana Labor News wishes at
this time to stress the fact that the

The School Board has promised to
investigate and to discuss the objections
of organized labor to a continuance OF
the Monitor System in the public
schools. AS was related formerly, this
system provides that certain children
are requested to act as monitors to the
other children.
The labor movement is opposed to
it on the grounds that it makes tattle-
tales out Of the children. 1t might be
difficult for people, not familiar with
the labor movement TO thoroughly

The B~artenders' Union are asking the

The Bottle Blowers Union is strongly
urging the exclusive use Of bottles as
beer containers. The bottles put out
by this union carry the union label.

In 1884, he estimated, more than

unitiOn of diphtheria cases.
Continue ImmunizatlOn
The preTalency of measles, last
spring. however, was responsible for
several deaths, as was the whOop-
ing cough. There we're several cases
of typhoid fever during the year. In
those respect the report, DR.. Jost
said. is not as favorable as that of
1888. The State board plans to con-
tinue the immunization work, DR..
Jost asserted.
He spoke highly of the sanitation
work done in the State during 1884.
This was done in many towns, and
should show it's results in the fur
ther reduction of deaths from ty-
Dhoid. Many towns have improved
systems for excreta disposal and
constructed more sanitary ontbuild-
ings. The boards work has been
much facilitated by the addition of
three men to the stan at Dover.

of combining State, City and School

The things we say about our chill
dren IN their presence may have far'
reaching effects upon their charac'
ters.
All OF us have seen children react
ing N one way or another % hear
ing themselves talked about toe
much and too often. We know that
they may Be turned into snug, self
control liitie prigs by the publicity
f0ndly given them by toO-garrulOus
mothers; or they may become the
most arrant Of exhibitionists. II all
depends upon the temperament OF
the particular child.
Then, there Is another kind of
stoo-mnch talk" which, reacting up
on a certain type OF character, may
change definitely and forever the re-
lalionship between parent and child
and have q lasting effect upon the
child's after life.
One day. Mrs. Burns and her small
daughter, Clare. came TO see me.
Mrs. Burns IS a very talkatiVe
woman. Il seemed. strange that she
should be the mother OF such a shy.
inarticmate little creature as Clare,
unless it Is true that too-garrulous
mothers make silent children, even
as too-willing mothers are apt to
make lazy ones. At any rate, it is
possible for thoughtless mothers to
make their children very unhappy as
observed that day.
Mrs. Burns suddenly said; "Come
here, Claire, want you," and the
little girl went obedIently and stood
beside her.
The mother put an arm about the
child and held her so that she could

not help facing my eyes. Then, quite
deliberately, simply because she had
never seen deeply into her child's ma
ture, she proceeded to make her
miserable.
what do you think?" she said to
me gayly, with insinuating mockery.
my child is going to be poet! Yes
you should have seen the poem she
made up about me-the funniest
thing. Regular child-stuff, you
know. Say It for us, Clare" But the
poor child, suffering an agony Of en-
barrassment, could not utter a word.
Mrs. Burns laughed and released
her daughter from torment with
little push that sent her awkwardly
back 70 her seat.
Ny heart ached for Clare. She was
so defenseless. That little poem. Ia
bored over and shyly offered to the
one she loved best, was no doubt the
expression of pure emotion. And
then, to hear 1t laughed at-before a
stranger, toO-no wonder she shrank
and suffered. That hour may have
marked the beginning OF that child's
alienation from her mother.
haYe never forgotten the look
of suffering on CIara's pale, sensi-
tive face that day. It comes before
me when ! am speaking of my own
It makes me take care
what | say lest I abuse little con-
hdences or give away secrets that
have been impaired to me in unques-
tioning good faith.
Between a very little child and its
mother there is almost always a per-
feet bond Of sympathy. II she can
keep that bond beautiful and. unim-
paired. as the child grows and de-
gelops, later adult relationships will
lake care Of themselves. The effort
will be worth all it costs; childhood
asts for such short while.

SCHOOL LAWS
MAY BE REVISED
rcsntinued from Fbn PGgs1

NGNAAAAAAN6 sNNAN
lied DR.. Holloway to submit the pro-
posed code at this session if It IS
deemed advisable.
The new code would bring all the
school laws up to date, eliminate
many of those that are Outmoded
and which have been useless and In
active for several years and provide
for several changes in the existing
statutes. One of these proposed
changes would make it compulsory
upon parents or guardians to see
that all children attended the pub
lie schools while they are open. I'm
der the law as it now stands par
ents may send their children to
school up to 12O days or only about
six months Of the year and then
permit them to remain away for
the balance of the session.
Another proposed change would
increase the school year from 16O
days to $50 days and would give to
the State Board of Education the
authority to say when the schools
should open and close. The present
law gives this authority to the
school boards with the result that
the opening and closing dates some
times are different in the various
districts.
Still another proposal is that the
State Board of Education be given
the right to purchase coal for the
various school districts. These pur-
chases are new made by the local
boards. It is estimated considerable
money could be saved by buying fuel
in larger quantities and. distribut-
ing it to the districts.
