TEACHING KINDNESS TO CHILDREN.
The enactment of a state law in Oregon requiring that kind
ness to animals be taught in all public schools from 15 minute3
to half an hour each week is attracting nation-wide attention, F.
Rivers Barnwell, field worker of the American Education Society,
enclosed a statement from S. M. N. Marrs, state superintendent of
education, Austin, Texas, to the school children of Texas as fol
lows :
"I take pleasure in directing your attention to the fact that
education in its broadest sense includes the training of the indi
viduals in order that good character may be the main result. We
cannot have good character unless we observe the 'Golden Rule'
and the observance of the 'Golden Rule' should be made broad
enough in its application to include animals as well as people. To
this end I wish to endorse the teaching of humane treatment of
animals as a means of instilling into the minds of the children the
proper regard for the feeling of others. If we can have the
conception that the word 'others' includes all animal life we will
have taken a long step toward world peace, for the individual who
has this feeling and will apply the 'Golden Rule' will not be found
advocating harsh treatment of individuals. It is the function of
the schools to make this contribution to education, and the organ
ization of local societies which have for their purpose the protec
tion of animals and children will contribute very largely to the
uplift of social c6nditions."

The old leap year tradition permitting women to make pro
posals of marriage, like many other ancient customs, probably had
its roots in certain ideas regarding life. It suggested that people
felt that the custom by which men make the proposals of mar
riage' is unfair to women, and that once in four years the thing
should be evened up by giving the girls a chance. The idea form
erly prevailed to some extent in Europe, that if a man should de
cline a leap year proposal, he ought to offer a silk dress to the
lady as A consolation prize. This again suggests a feeling that a
bachelor owes some obligation which he has not paid. The old
leap year tradition may be a joke, yet it suggests an ancient con
viction that the men who remain single beyond a normal time are
not usually taking their full part in the life of the community.
Ancient sentiment evidently sought to dislodge tlien from their
exclusive position, by placing the weapons of pursuit in the hands
of the women folks, and there was some sound sense in that feel
ing. 1 o
It was formerly said that sea power was the deciding factor
in wars, but air forces may decide the next one, if such a dread
event ever happens. Hence the recent expansion in air forces in
one nation, t ranee, causes some uneasiness. It was hoped when
the Washington conference reduced naval forces, that a long step
toward disarmament had been taken. But if the nations have
merely shifted competition from water ships to air ships, not
much has been gained. The disproportionate strength of France
is suggested in recent figures, by which the French had 171 plane
squadrons, the United States had -18, and Great Britain had 31.
An international effort to hold down air armament would seem to
be needed at this time. The more the nations of Europe fit
themselves out with this modern means of battle, the more hostile
leeling will grow.
o
The losses by fires in January were $-1 1,225,000, the highest
January loss ever recorded. And this is in spite of all the fire
prevention campaigns by fire departments and insurance com
panies and other agencies, which have tried to induce people to
avoid risks. It is worth while stopping a moment to ask what the
principal causes of fires are. According to figures collected by
the National Board of Fire Underwriters, matches and smoking
cause more fires than anything else. Next in order, come spon
taneous combustion, defective chimneys and flues, and stoves,
boilers, and pipes. Every smoker should look out where he throws
matches and cigar ends, and householders should sec that their
stoves and furnaces do not got overheated.
