A California fanner faces a long term in jail because he thinks high school is a place where boys and girls learn to drinlp gamble and forge checks. He believes it so thoroughly that he refuses to seud his two boys to high school -and therefore incurred displeasure of the county superintendent who apparently believes a father with such opinions a vicious criminal. He said lie' would do his best to keep the man in jail all winten We think the father is unduly alarmed about the evil that boys and girls learn in high school. It is regrettably true that a great many things are sometimes learned by the pupil which aren’t in the school curriculum. But they are things which are learned as well by boys and girls who don’t go to high school. If there is any difference it should be in favor of the high school. The pupil with real intelligence must absord some impressions from his advanced learning of the value to himself of play ing the game of life cleanly and decently. Nevertheless as between the father with his unreasonable fear of the vicious influence of high school and the superintendent with his intolerance of such an attitude the father’s position seems to be the more admirable. He at least is willing to let others run the risk he thinks they take without ap pealing to force to prevent it.

BONNER SvAJEUL ’SHAPE,« G rf Queen Marie arrived last week to pay u> a visit. Quite naturally, she is monopolising the front pages, for she is an interesting woman. That line al>out sisters under the skin should be revived for Marie of Rumania. On her visit to this coun try she reveals herself not so much the queen as the weinan. Past 50 years of age, she has had her hair bobbed, a shingle bob followed by a permanent wave. ' \* , ' Royalty has become tolerable since the myth of divine anointment was discarded, and a throne is worth having when those who sit upon it cap hold their place through popular favor. That Ferdinand and Marie still wear crowns is ip no «mall measure due to this queeu who is so thoroughly feminine We admire her for her war work, we respect her for using all the gifts of her personality to win world-wide friendship for her people; but if we come to love her during her visit to this country, it will l>e because we understand her as a woman. Certainly all mothers can sympathize with this mother whose eldest son is a bad boy who has thrown away his royal heritage for an adventure with a redheaded woman. The mothers will ap preciate her worries with a group of marriageable daughters for whom she must make good matches. How disappointed must she be in the son-in-law who sat upon the throne of Greece but couldn’t hold the fickle affections of the Athenians. Then there is Ferdinand himself, allegedlly the weak tool of scheming politicians. These are problems common not only to queens, but to wives and mothers every where. © Alfcfc.

At last the great day came that they started. Everyone aaw Mm oft I t was a long, long trip, but every b it of it was interesting. There were forests and lakes and rivers and miles and miles of won derful country where no bosses were to be seen. Earle felt as though he were going explhring. There were prairies.

And yet because life is aa kind to us as we have the intelligence to let it he, it was out of tba party that grew slowly a new resolve of Lydia e— to have some day as pret- ' hands and aa well-shod feet aa lga and Hilda and Cissy, to learn how to make her dresses so that even the composing of an organdie might not be beyond her. John Levine waa running for sheriff on the Republican ticket. He waa elected early In April by a comfortable majority and invited Amoa and Lydia to a floe Sunday dinner in celebration at the beet hotel in town. Lydia’s Ufe was to at of any i that of the children that she knew, that growing into adoles cence with the old hood of play dis appearing, she toll back more and more on resources within herself. Is did not prevent bar going thfully once a month to call on Margery Marshall. And there vis its were rather pleasant than oth erwise. Margery was going through the paper doll tover.

She, too, bad been brad on a New SMg- •snd farm. He always felt as if the fine orderliness of the rows was for her. Lydia greatly preferred weeding the garden to cleaning the house, indeed the contrast between the fine garden, the well-kept patch of lawn and the disorderly house was startling. One afternoon In August, clad in her bathing suit, now much too small for hor, she was working In the garden, when a voice behind her grunted: “Eat!” Lydia Jumped and turned. The old squaw of two yea » before stood begging. She was as piUtoliy thin as ever. As she stared at the ugly old Indian, Lydia's throat tight ened. She seenied to feel baby Pa tience’s fingers clinging to hers to fear. “AVant some vegetables?" she asked, motioning toward the gar den. The squaw nodded eagerly and held up the dirty apron she was wearing. Lydia began slowly to fill it, talking as she worked. “Where do yon live?" Rhe asked. The Indian Jerked her gray head toward the north “Big Wooda" “But that’s twenty miles. It must take you a long time to walk IL Poor thing !” The squaw shrugged hes shoul ders.
