It's a good thin";, about once in every campaign, to stop
yawping about "cheap, self-seeking politicians' and recognize
the good men-who have been drafted to run for public service.

June has always been the big wedding month of the year.
Now, marriage license clerks and retail merchants' boards
tell us that September is crowding June pretty close. Their
statistics show also that October and November rank third $.ao
and fourth in the order of marrying months. Possibly these
autumn weddings are the results of summer resort court
ships. "There's a lot of psychology in this job," says one
marriage license clerk, suggesting that theory. P.ut what
ever the cause, the facts seem to be authentic. Hereafter we
may hear more of September brides and asters than ever be
fore, although they don't lend themselves to poetry so well
as Juno and tosos.

NO MOKE SCHOOL DUNCES
Nowadays when a child does poor work In school he isn't
put in a coiner on the dunce's stool, lie is examined by a
school nui'se or his parents arc asked that he be sent to n
competent physician for a physical examination. If teeth
or eyes or adenoids need attention, they are given it, and
usually the child goes back to school and progresses nor
mally.
If the physical examination fails to reveal the cause of
his backwardness, the psychologist may be called uxm. lie
looks into the child's mental life and often finds that some
home maladjustment or some trivial, mistaken notion has set
the child off to a bad sjart on the road to learning. Those
things are taken care of, the parents are talked to alxmt
handling the child, and in most, cases he is fitted into his
proper place in school and all goes well thereafter.
Miss Sybil Cox, specialist in "adjustment education," says
there are still other reasons for a child being backward in
soliool. They have crept in with the over-crowded class room
and the teacher who is trained well in her subjects but may
not be an expert educator.
"I know of one boy of ten," says Miss Cox, "who was fail-l
ing in his classes, and because of his failure, developing a hat
red of school, his classmates and his leacher." Investigation
by the adjustment education expert revealed that he had
simply not been taught to read properly in the lower grades.
This meant that he couldn't get the most out of his lessons as
he studied his textbooks. Thorough private instruction sent
him back to school reading as well as other children of his
age. Able to get his lessons along with the others, he prompt
ly beciime happy and successful.
Some people think all this is "stuff" and foolishness. It
isn't. Much of it is still experimental. Hut it is reaching in
the right direction, seeking the right way to make education
effective and joyful, as it ought to lie.

Few Men
Carry Enough
Life Insurance
You believe in life insurance. So does
nearly every individual in America. But
few men carry enough insurance to
provide their families with as adequate
an income after death as they now pro
vide while living.
A man of O.i can assure his family $33
at his death for each dollar of his an
nual investment in life insurance. Yet
many men cany very little insurance.
These same men would stoutly resent
the accusation that they are selfish
where their families are concerned.
But are they not preferring the pos
session and use of one dollar for them
selves over the protection of $33 for
their family after they can no longer
use 4he one dollar?
Your life insurance, estate should be
measured in terms of annual income
that it can earn for your family. Deter
mine what you need and let us discuss
rates with you. You can handle the
premiums by the. month as you do your
savings.
