Our power and responsibility are great D we are to gire to the state bow and girls who are to become men and woman of broader sympathies, of stronger prin- ciples of justice, of keener appreciation of good citizen ship, ws must, unless we lose the golden opportunity, instil into every child, through his contact with the animal world, the principles of justice, mercy and love. Nothing good is impossible. Only sa our visions fail do our efforts lessen. In the animal world there ft a wonderful harmony between the crea tures and the circumstances and conditions amid which they are placed. The same law rules in the province of human life. Every teacher knows the value of applied instruction. What more 'interesting text to teach children that animftls have rights to be respected, .that kindness is a wonderful promoter of happiness, than this harmony between creature and circumstance and condition? Children's sympathies are easily aroused. Their willingness to do acta of benevolence and con structive good is as great as their seeming desire to be destructive, if only ithey are shown the way. I With children, it is as easy to do, as to know what were good to be the Boxer indemnity done. The great problem is to give them the right thing to do. Such! delight is therrs to be the bearers of the Thanksgiving and Christmas: baskets to the needy; what pleasure it gives thetoi to care for the lame boy who is to be carried up and down the school steps, four times a day; what! joy they find in being responsible for the supply of fresh water for the' . animals in a certain part of the block. It is action thev want. they will have. To render service to the beasts is to appreciate the service! I isndered by them. .Service will bring a reaction which will result in more gentleness, less selfishness, less cruelty and more peace. Let us teach our boys and girls' ' that justice, meroy and love which, shall enable them to make the most1 of life.

A little cloud of doubt had arisen on the Christmas' sky, however, us Modern Girl Has No Heart, No Soul If She Has She Will Not Admit It By FRANK X. LEYENDECKER. American Illustrator. The modern girl has no heart, no soul, no sentiment if she has .ha refuses to admit it You do not dare to talk to the flapper of classic nor of other serious things, for she simply will make nJ attempt to absorb them. She is idle, frivolous and heedless of tomorrow. However, I will admit that she is charming and often irresistible. , She looks so young, but knows so much much that she could da well not to know. She assumes no responsibility. She seeks nothing but amusement. When a boy reaches the flapper age he usually has some obligation to fulfill. He gets a job, or else he is branded as a loafer. The girl, however, spends her time reading frothy literature and smoking. In my opinion the only hope of the nation rests upon the working girl. She has more originality and individuality than the flapper, who looks to me as if she were made from a die. Each working girl has her particular style in clothes and coiffure. But the flapper 1 How can you tott one from another? "I'm Glad I'm One,"' Said Agnes. V Art Bolshevists to the Incompetent Proletariat of Paint and Brush By CHARLES VEZIN, American Artist and Critic. The Russian Bolshevists "had a cinch" when they started. It is easy to convert people to what they like to believe and what it is to their interest to believe. So all they had to say to the peasants and they make up the mass of Bussia was : "The land is yours." So the art bolshevists say to the ignorant and the incompetent of paint, to the proletariat of the brush : "The walls of the exhibition rooms are yours." If their picture reaches the "firing line" of the National Academy or the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts or Carnegie Institute and is "fired," they fell him: "Your picture is too good for them," . How many geneTatioihvj4l4tJ harvests to bring back the Russian people to their physical ronstitationsrHowln erations of ethical soundness will it take to repair the moral attrition of our youth? How many generations will it take to repair the esthetic bolshevism now being propagated in most of our art schools by "profes sional modernists"? It is this factor that makes discussion futile about merely a passing ware. It will be visited upon the third and fourth fenerations. sasa--5?525aag25a A List of Vacation Do's and Don'ts for the School Children of America By SAFETY INSTITUTE OP AMERICA Swim all you can this summer, but never on a full stomach, or if overheated or extremely tired. '.', Learn to paddle your own canoe, but never rock the boat to scare the other fellow ; this has caused the death of thousands of boys and girls. Fly kites, but don't use copper wire instead of twine; scores of boys have been electrocuted when their kite wire came in contact with electric wires; also don't elimh telegraph, poles. Hike ont into the country, but if yen go for mere than one day cany a first-aid kit with you; also learn to recognize poison ivy. Drink a lot f water, but first make sure that Ha source is clean. t Don't use the streets- for play if there is a vacant lot, a clean alley or a playground nearby; if you must use streets for nlayjponnds pjclt street that has no street car tracks or heavy automobile traffic. Don't be a jay-walker; in the city cross streets at regular crossings, never in the middle of the block; when walking on country roads keep on the left instead of the right-hand side of the ml, so that you oa eaair' Cncle Peter had spoken of Uncle Snmta's lavishness In far countries. Edith voiced it when She wanted to know if it would be of any use for them to expect anything that Christ- I mas, whether or not they were to hang up their stockings. "You'll put your foot in It if you do," said George. "No, she won't," said Uncle Peter; "I have had a special delivery letter from Uncle Samta,' saying that he has had his eye on this house for the last twelvemonth, and that this will be one of his stopping places because from it so much of service for others has been going out. He says that you are his gardeners, and that you have planted so many seeds of kindness that a lot of beautiful things will be sure to come up. That is always the way, he says; In fact, it is the way In which he got rich himself." , Tills was a very pleasant assurance for the children, ft made them think of a happy mistake that one of them had made when they- were having war gardens all over the town; A certain Mr. Hose had been affpolnted by tha mayor as inspector of gardens for the whole place, and one day Betty point ed him out to a friend with whom she was walking. "There goes Mr. Hose," she said; "he's an expect or of gar dens !" the children had been re minded of Mr.TtoijetnyTtso-remei-W bered what Betty had done at their last Christmas party ; stalking heavily and pompously down the' room, she had said: "I'm Mr. Atlas, who holds up the World." So one of them stood on tiptoe, threw back her head and threw out her arms and said: "I'm Uncle Samta Claus, who holds up the world," "Well done!" cried Uncle Peter; "that's Just Itl" There wasn't any disappointment In the, house the next morning. "Did you get all that you wanted?' asked Uncle Peter, "fee," said Mary. "Were yon at all disappointed?" "No," said Mary. When Mary said "Goodness," her v mother said, "Yon cbouldnt say 'goodness,' Mary." "Gra emes!" snid Mary. But Mary was too excite! to have a care for her ex pressions. , In describing the situation j afterwards ne saia: i in a per fect stupor of excitement."' Uncle Peter had a present, toe, Alter all the rest had been made hapsy Agnes Ibrought out a parcel, and When Uncle Peter opened it there were too big books that told over again the story of all that America had stood for and accomplished. This made him very glad Indeed, and he asked them to write his name on the fly leaf and his Young Christmas party ended with a verse of our national anthem, heartily song and fallowed by all the ether verses, Mm for TOde Sam isntwa Turks have brought home to the American people something of what has been ftolng .on regularly and sys tematirally, but on a smaller scale, in Armenia, for years. American people are saving these brave Christian peo ple from a terrible death in the battlo of Mohammedanism against Chris tianity. Col. George H. Bellamy, State Chair man, who is in onrge of the work of raising $200,000 la this state this year for this great rhlld saving work, sup plements Mr. Daniels appeal. "Isn't it hard enough to be an or phan at Christmas time'' said Col. Bellamy, "without having to hunt like an animal for food? "The crumbs fropi your tables 17c. a day S60 a year will feed and clothe one of these children and bring him up as a Christian citizen, ready to do his share of the world's work when the great powers Of the world shall hove ceased- to worship mammon and have put the Turk where he be longs." i Cel. Bellamy points out that it is a physical impossibility to secure the names of every worthy citizen and that those, who did not receive such letters aro extended an invitation to give just the same. i Raleigh, N.

A Gas Range Will Bring Leisure Hours Into Your Home. The housewife who cooks on one of the modern Cabinet Gas Ranges that we are now showing has time to devote to things putside of her kitchen. Contrasted with the oldtnethod o cooking on a clumsy, unsightly coal range, Gas cooking is as pleasant as a vacation at the seaside. In the Summer time, when you want to be out in the open, the woman who continues to wear herself out over an antiquated stove is doing both herself nd her family a needless.injustice.
