Children's Judge Says Spanking Is Beneficial to Some Boys. By Justice OLMSTED of the Children's Court. New York. eVERY child reasons things out in his own way just as much as an adult. If the man or woman who i3 to pass judgment on the act of that child fails to take account of that reasoning power or to get the child's point of view ho will fail utterly as a judge. . t? v IT IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHY THE CHILDREN OF OUR COUNTRY HAVE BCEN NEGLECTED A3 LONG A3 THEY HAVE. THEY ARE THE VERY BONE AND SINEW OF OUR NATION, AND TURNED ASTRAY IN CHILDHOOD THEIR ENTIRE LIFE IS BOUND TO BE WORKED OUT ON FALSE LINES. n k k I believo EVERY CHILD AT HEART IS GOOD. . HE MEAJNS WELL, and when through the exuberance of his feelingn lo commits some act against the good of tho community it is but a simple mistake that can be corrected in simplo ways. SPANKING IS GOOD FOR MANY BOYS, especially if tho spanking is administered by some one in parental authority. I havo frequently sentenced a boy to a sound spanking by his father or mother right here in court, because I believo it will do him good. Its effect on him is far more salutary than if it were administered in his own home. I got but ono spanking in all my life, but I will never forget the Impression it made on me. I debated most seriously for hours "whether t6 run away from such cruel parents or not, and of course I finally decided not to. Why ? Because tho punishment was of such a nature that it appealed to me, and I finally camo to tho conclusion that perhaps I had deserved what I got. The remembrance of that spanking came back to mo when I took chargo of tho children's court. If it had so good an effect on me, I argued, why wouldn't it bo a good thing to try on others ? So I got to ordering spankings right here in court, and I think they are doing good. k k n BUT l" DON'T BELIEVE IN INDISCRIMINATE LICKINGS EITHER. THERE ARE SOME BOYS TO WHOM A SPANKING WOULD DO MORE HARM THAN GOOD. PICTURE LECTURE BOOMS. How Some Towns Advertise Their Beauties to Other Towns. There are many methods of getting the attractions and advantages of a town hefore the outside public if the townspeople only care enough about the matter to do something active nnd actual In that line. One of the most up to date methods of town booming Is to have a good talker go from town to town delivering a "picture lecture" about tho place which Is to be boomed. The first thing, of course, is to have about fifty or sixty lantern slides made from photographs of places of Interest In and around the town. The slides may be colored or left in black and white. Colored ones naturally add to the beauty of the scenes in cases where coloring is indicated. Tho lecturer, who should be person ally acquainted with each building, bridge, stream, park, landscape or per son represented, devotes a minute's talk to each subject ns tho picture is thrown on tho screen. Half a hundred pictures will make an evening's enter talnmeut of an hour to nn hour and a half, sure to be enjoyed by the people of tho towns visited. The outfit for a picture lecture costs bo little that tho expense Is scarcely to be considered when n whole communi ty Is interested in the project There are towns in southern Califor nia which maintain regular booming offices In Los Angeles, tho metropolis of tho district. At certain intervals pic ture lectures are given, tho dates being advertised In tho local press. Tho nd missiou is free. Thousauds of tourists from all parts of tho country are at tracted to tho hall where the show takes place. Many of these are attract ed to the town which Is the subject of tho Bhow. Some of them buy lots, start In business, build homes there. Tho California idea can be applied to any town elsewhere. Put your pic turo lecture man In a suitable hall In the nearest city of considerable size, and it is reasonably certain that before very long inquiries will begin to come and pcoplo will begin to follow the in quiries. This is a suggestion easy to work out anywhere. "If nobody does nothlu', uothin' will bo doty." SPOTLESS INDIANA TOWN. How the Inhabitants of Hope Cleaned It Up. nope, Ind., observed a cleanup day a short time ago, and nn enterprising (Poet was moved to writo the following; Let ua, then, bo up and (loins, Kncli ono with n bar of soap, Still achieving, still pursuing Make a spotless town of Hope. "And that's what they did. The rest dents of tho place certainly made Hope a spotless town, and thero Is n reward of ?5 in gold for tho smallest piece of dirt to be found inside tho corporate limits. Tho town board decided that June 11 bould bo clcauup day. Notices wore posted, the town marshal went around and notified everybody, tho board of health got busy, and when tho sun arose on a Thursday morning lirigndra of cleaners were nt work, It became tho duty of every jierson to clean up his own premises and to pllo tho gar uago nnd trash in the street in front of his house. Tho town furnished wagons to mako the rounds and haul tho trash away. Other men were env ployed to clean tho streets, and by evening everything was spick and epan. Now tho peoplo of Hope Intend to keep their town that way. A BUMP OF ORDER! H Saves Wear and Tear on One's Nerves. It is a big boon to be born orderly. It means such a saving in wear and tear on one's nerves. There are some people who have tho desire for neatness, but lack in its execution. They can put to rights, but not keep It up. It Is easier to be a born sloven than one with a wish for orderliness allied to the habit of misplacing. That place for everything rule is n good ono if you don't forget the place. The woman who can find her belong ings even In the dark is the ono to tie to, provided she doesn't achieve her neatness by nagging and everlasting prlmpness. That some girls' bureau drawers have a cyclone struck look may not argue a lack of orderliness so much ns an overpressure of affairs. It Is not easy when every minute counts to put things back in the exact spot where they should go. As the bump of order is the greatest time saver known, it is well, however, for tho busy girl to make strenuous efforts to acquire It. It may take nn extra minute to put things where they belong, but time Is often reckoned by hours when it comes to hunting them where they don't belong. Orderliness Is a good business asset. The girl who can put her fingers on notebook at an instant's notice, who is not on a perpetual hunt for pencil, eraser nnd other dally necessities, who has learned to classify her papers for easy finding, rarely makes a failure of her career. NEW CANDLE SHADES. Umbrella Shaped Affairs of Dainty Cretonne Very Smart. Very new and pretty candle shades are made In tho simplest possible way. I The frame is merely two wire circles nn umbrella shaped affair, with no nn I gles whatever. The cover Is u circle of I cretonne about six Inches bigger in diameter than Is the frame. Around ' the edge of this cretonne is sewed n j fringe of gloss beads, which Is heavy j enough to hold down the cover nnd to cause It to fall In graceful folds. An other clrclo Is cut from the center of tho cover just tho size to fit around the frame, The cover is then fastened at the Inside circle to the frame by n binding of gold braid. Tho mica shade, of course, tits on the stand entliely In dependent of tho candle shade. The great advantage of the shade lies in the fact that, unlike most of its kind, it need not be fitted to the frame, nor uro there seams to be finished on the underside Read fringe may be bought by tho yard, nnd wire frames aro extremely inexpensive. Should handsomer shades than cre tonne 1ms desired the cover may lx of brocaded silk or a heavy silk of a solid light color. The fringe might then be either gold or silver, while tho braid at tho top would, of course, match it. THE AMULET.

MM WITH A HAMMER Every Town Should Take Quar antine Measures Against Him. NATURE ABHORS A KNOCKER. I Several Sprightly California Papers I Jump on Hammer Handlers With Both Feet, Even Poetic Feet Let Us Bury the Hatchet and Hammer. It has been said that there is a time and place for everything and that everything has some good and prac 1 tlcal use In the universal plan. While this may b true, there remain to bo discovered the benefits to he derived from the "man with the hammer." This does not refer to the man who i wields tlmt useful implement of toll, but to the figurative hammer in the i hands of that Bpccies of the human I animal known ns tho "knocker." The real man with the hammer is V . builder. lie is one of the most neces sary and beneficial of our citizens. i The flgurntive man with the hammer Is a tearcr down, a hindrance, an ob j stnele, a tumor on the body politic, a i municipal cancer, n menace to prog 1 ress, a breeder of dissatisfaction, a ' promoter of trouble. I Thank heaven Beaumont has not j many of these enemies of peace and ! prosperity, editorially remarks the Oateway Gazette, published at Beau I mont, Cnl. There may bo one or two i of the species among us, for 'it is 1 said that uo community is free from j them. Some recent editorials nnd con- tributlons In southern California pa 1 pers indicate that there are "uieu with 1 hammers" In neighboring towns. For ' this reason warning is here given. j Let us quarantine against the pests. I One of the towns which seem to be I Infested Is Huntington Beach, und an editorial in the News of that city con ' tains so much good nnd sensible ma terial tliat it Is here appended: "Much has been suld and more has been wrltteu of the person who Is al ways bewailing the fact that the towu in which he lives Is doomed to be for ever small and unimportnnt. its people shiftless and incompetent lu business, its streets in filthy coudltlon In short, the other towns are in every way more desirable as places of residence. To define his qualities, tho word 'knocker' has been coined. It Is Im pressive. It is even emphatic, yet It is not strong enough. "This kind of alleged citizen Is fouud everywhere, oven In Huntington Beach The News meets him occasionally atvl trio lo talk him out of his dumps.' No ono so quickly contracts disease physical as l lie one who always seems to think that lie has it. No o:ie con tracts disease financial so certainly as he who Is always telling and finally persuades himself that he Is doomed to bo a pauper; that his town affords no opportunity of earning a decent live lihood. Brace up. Talk cheerfully. Make your opportunities. Boost your town. Join the board of trade. Try lo have some enterprise. Try to believe that others have. Be sure that your town Is the best lu the country. Why, the members of our Woman's club are more manly in spirit, more helpful to tho town, more likely to build it up. than a male 'knocker.' An admonition that has been given ever since the ad vent of the Prince of Peace Is, 'Bury tho hatchet. Quito right. Favor al ways peace, but 'Bury tho hammer' is not a bad motto, either." Deducing from a poetical contribu tion to the Chlno Champion, tho sugar beet town Is not nil sweetucss. The article is entitled "Boost n Bit" nnd Is contributed by one of the merchant of the town. It, too, Is worth reading, and it is here given: Here, you discontented knocker, Growlln' 'bout tho country's Ills, Chloroform yer dismal talker; Tako a course of liver pills. Stop yer durn klotoo howlln", Chaw some sand an' get some ffrlt. Don't sit In thu dumps a-erowlln. Jump the roost An' boost A bit! Fall In while tho band's a-playln'. Ketch the step an' march along. 'Stead o' pessimistic brayln' Jlno the halleluyah song! Drop yer hammer, do some rootln', Grab n horn, you cuss, an' split Every echo with yer tootln'. Jump tho roost An' boost A bit! A Hint to Home Merchants. Most farmers would rather trade ivlth their local merchants than send off for goods if they can get what they want and at something near the same price, but tho business of the mall order houses is growing nnd will con tlnuo to grow until the local merchants wnko up to tho fact that they must keep In stock what the peoplo want and sell nt n price that will not exceed that of the mall order house with the freight add ed. Merchauts who mnko a "bid" for business by keeping tho right kind of stock and letting the peoplo know It through the advertising columns of the local paper are reasonably sure of pros perity. Value of Fine Grounds. X noted landscape designer who has mucli to do with city beautiful plan ning has said that Los Angeles Is not a beautiful city becauso wo have little good landscape work In our private grounds. Tho rules concerning open lawn centers nnd massed borders are almost entirely Ignored. We do have masses of vegetation, all wrongly placed, which is really overplantlng, and too many of our lawn areas aro dotted over with plants, almost la orchard style, thereby losing in grand and dignified effect of broad expanses of Etwiiawftrd, Los Angles Wmea. .
