Elmer Ellsworth Brown, chancellor emeritus of New York university, once said : "From tbe kindergarten to manhood la so long a span that It Is hard for many peo ple to realize the full significance of kindergarten training for the adult life of our people. But there are cer tain ways ? not altogether obvious though long recognized by the friends of the kindergarten? In which this foster-parent of our child-citizenship Is vitally related to our citizen-life In its entirety." And Prof. W. H. Lancelot of Iowa State college writes: "Our great mistake in the past has been to throw away in many cases tbe years In which the life and character of tbe child are most easily shaped. We now know that habit formation Is at its height In the pre-school years and that this Is one of the most critical stages of child life." The child who goes to a good kin dergarten usually enjoys his later school days, and whatever bis adult occupation may be be still continues Interested In the world about him and In the accomplishments of his fellow men. Just as long as he lives. Be sure there Is a class, conducted by a properly trained kindergartner, for the boys and girls of your com munity. If you need help write to the National Kindergarten associa tion, 8 West Fortieth street. New York city. There Is no charge for any service rendered. Congenial Isolation An Englishman and an American traveled In the same compartment on one of the Liverpool expresses. The former spoke not a word to his com panion, who was the only other oc cupant of the compartment, and It was only when the train was cross ing Runcorn bridge that the Ameri can said : "Excuse me, sir, but your tie Is riding up over the back of your collar." "Well, what if it is?" was the curt reply. "Your coat pocket has been on Are this last five minutes, and I haven't bothered you." ?
