Sense Information Methods Fail to Fit Him For Life.
Kindergarten Must Return to, the
Ideas of Froebel.
Vocation Series, No. 7.
By ANNA BAGENHOLM SLOANE.
(Copyright. 191S. by Mini Anna B. 81ei )
IN vocational training Is found a com
plete reversal of present systems of
education. From the failure of
sense Information to fit a child for
life work, a lesson for the future must
be learned. The kindergarten must bo
come a rpal "garden" as Froebel In
tended, and the work of the educator
must be, not to supply the child with
Ideas, but t ohelp him give expression to
hip own Ideas.

Value of Rhythmic Dance
Grandmothers, Mothers and Children
Will Find It An Aid to Health.
By LUCREZIA BORI.

"they realised thaj beauty
mt wa onlv attained" through
physical perfection, and that
the latter depended entirely upon the
proper exercise and cleanliness.
Therefore, the youth of these coun
tries were trained In gymnastics and
dancing from babyhood.
It Is Impossible to bo a graceful
dancer unless one has perfect muscu
lar control of tho body, and for this
reason It Is necessary that the body
be methodically trained If one de
sires to acquire tho fashionable ac
complishment of the moment.
All the world's a-danclng. and one

learning to Interpret classlo and
modern dancing.
The Rhythmic Walk.
There la nothing to compare with
the former to produce health, beauty,
(race, poise, and rhythm of
the body. I advise every one wheth
er you are a grandmother with sil
vered looks, or a girl Just budding
Into young womanhood to learn clas
sic dancing.
If you are a mother you should
'have your child taught Interpreta
tW dancing almost from the moment

heklthy and beautiful.
children aie wonderfully rcspon
lve and possess unlimited possibili
ties, and you will nnd no difficulty
In 'teaching them gymnastics and
dancing.
A well-known exponent of this art
flrat teaches her pupils to walk
Thythmlcally. Simple rhythms are
played and the march or walk step
it timed to the music. When this In
tlal step is mastered the pupils are
taught to walk and run to more
complex rhythms, and llnall they
learn to Jump and pose naturally to
express the beauties of nature and
art.
Bathing and Relaxation.
When the weather Is warm enough
to permit, dancing and exercis ng
should be done out of doors, with
the legs and feet unhampered by
shoes or stockings. Sing simple lit
tle melodies Vhile going through the
movements or dancing steps, for It
Is much easier to accomplish results
If rhythm la followed.
After exercising, wTiethcr you are
young or old. It is necessary to relax
the muscles and rest for at least a
half hour Before lying down the

Intellect and Intelligence.
The loss is the talker's, whether he Is
Ignorant of the fact or not. It is the
duty of our educators to see that no
child remains Ignorant of the fact that
If the Ideas which stray Into his Intel
lect from without are rolled back over
his tongue before they can set anv of
his Intelligence centers Into vibrating,
ho Is cheating himself out of any good
they might do him If retained.
Perhaps the dlfforence between Intel
lect and Intelligence should be explained
since It Is not mm mi a I to hear the two
words used Indiscriminately to express
rimer iaea. to students or the humun
mind there Is a great difference between
the coarser mental fluid moving with
in our brain organism which they call
intellect and the finer mind fluid which
Is the life of the Intellect, that thev call
Intelligence. The talkative child be
comes alert, quick to notice things aud
ible, or visible, and to comment thereon.
But there Is a great deal of difference
botwoen alertness and mental powers.
The men and women who aro In possess
ion of unusual mental powers have,
without exception, been children of few
words. Their number of words, to the
minute, may still be few, but each of
them Is treasured more than a thousand
uttered by the common tongue-wagger
Our present attempts to educnte our
children by means of sense Informa
tion is responsible for our chattering
mlnd-fllghty school graduates, who, ac
cording to employers' testimony, are
unfit for any kind of work. It Is not
onlv a change In our systems of educa
tion wo nerd in order to develop the
best powers in our children. It is a
complete reversal. Instead of crowding
them with Ideas from without wo should
help thorn to express their own ideas.
Wa should let our children alone until
we can understand what they want to
trv to do and then facilitate their ef
forts as much as possible without tak
ing the work of self-expression away
from them.
Let us Insist that our kindergartens
be real gardens, as Froebel Intended,
with simple tools and materials lying
handy. Let each child help himself to
the tools and things he wants. Tf asked
what he Intends to do, he will tell It
without hesitancy. The Idea Is In hi
mind though his ability to carry It
out may bo enthcly lacking. The work
of the educator should not be to supply
the child with Ideas, but to help nlm
give expression to his own Ideas. Now
teachers and textbooks supply our
children too abundantly with Ideas, but
do not even Rive them chances to ex
press either their own, or the acquired
Ideas let alone helping them. It Is riot I
how much one nas neara or, or seen,
that makes one great. It Is what
one can do.
"To do. to dare, to keep Bllent." These
words were cut Into the very stones
over the doorways of ancient places of
education. Whv should they not be
blazing In fiery letters beforo the eyes
of our educators and our children? Why
should our children not be helped to ex
press their doing Inclinations? When
children are engrossed in doing they are

cleansing. Do not remain In the
water longer than ten or fifteen min

skin with tepid water and stimulate

ADVICE TO
Dear Annie Laurie: I am sixteen
years old, and for a while I went
with a young man and then wo
quarreled because ho got too familiar.
After that, however, he told some
girls I knew that he respected me
highly and liked me very much. Now
I like him very much and would
llkf to be friends with him again.
Of course, I cannot write to him ns
It would not be proper, and I have
nothing to apologize for. My home
is not nice enough to have a party or
iiiij thing of that sort. What can I
do? BLUE EYE8.
W
ELL, flttle Blue Eyes, I
think that the best thing
for you to do Is to wait
and if the young man likes
and respects you at he says he does
ho will find some way to get back
our old friendship. You weto per
fectly right in not allowing him to
become too familiar, and that Is
what makes him respect you. Also
It is what will bring him back to
you.
Dear Annie Laurie r We are two
girls, eighteen years of age, and
have been keeping company with
two boys of our own age for a
considerable time, but for the last
three weeks have not seen or heard
from them. We do not know what
reason they have for acting like
this, because they used to either
phone or write.
Now please advise us what to do.

Woman Must Remember Not
to Become Intoxicated
With Power, But Aid and
Direct the Superman.
By FLORENCE E, YODER.
"The civilization of man has prov
en a failure. For after all tho years
It is ending In mere suicide. Tho
fact that civilization must have a
great moral basis the Influence of
women Is assured."
Ju!ej Hols, novelist, dramatist,
philosopher, and true gentleman of
Prance, spoke hesitatingly In Eng
lish, and then showered tho Inter
preter with a wealth of explanation
In French. He watched for the ex
pression of comprehension on my
face, breathed n sigh of relief when
1 nodded, and the interview sched
uled for twenty minutes, began to
fly by.
"Then feminism Is not any fleeting
or passing fad, not a flash In the
pan," I supplemented, and after tho
interepretcr had translated my Eng
lish idiom Into French, Jules Bols
began tb speak rapidly.
"That Is It. The segregation of
man as a ruler has proven a failure,
nnd It li both good and necessary
that woman enter the field for the
purpose of Infusing tho great moral
force which she, as the one born for
great sacrifice, can wield. A durablo
civilization cannot exist without the
aid of a moral force which does not
rely upon mind or brawn, for Its
success."
A great eagerness to be under
stood shone In tho face of the au
thor, and ho would again andyBgaln
i elapse into halting English In tho
hope that hlH message could be more
deeply Impressed.
"I have a message for American
women," he said, "nnd I would that
they could all seo It as I do. Tlvu
message Is that she remember why
she In entering public life, that sho
Is aiding not because of any thought
of pride or aggrandizement on her
part, but because she sees that It
Is necessary for her to step Into the
breach. She Is playing her old role,
the role for which she was born, of
sacrifice. On the remembranco of
that lies tho hope of her and of th
men she Is to aid In preparing a true
civilization.

"The greatest future for women

alone, will the true civilization have
Its beginnings, for It Is here that it
will be possible for the superwoman

his argument. A few words In Eng
lish, a few In French, and without
any hesitation the conversation was
taken up exactly where it had been
left off.
"That passion for personal ad
vancement Is the very thing which
has laid low the civilization of man.
Since women are born for sacrifice,
and that Is not a theory, but a
phslologlcal fact, they will perhaps
ncer bo caught In that lure. They
will nlwn bear In mind that sacrl1
fine Is their ralson d'etre. Without
that spirit of sacrifice, the purpose
of their entrdnce Into public affairs
will be gone.
Spirit of Sacrifice.
"Tho women of America must not
become intoxicated with power. They
will perhaps for a time be tempted,
for they aro not yet superwomen
in the mass, the civilization of man
has kept them from being so, but
perhaps they can learn tho great
lesson of the masculine-feminine
force without running first to an ex
treme. "Now, in the past, the same spirit of
sacrifice has ruled the lives of tho
women, but It was a sacrifice without
intelligence. Women allowed them
selves to be crucified needlessly, nnd
without end, simply because thers
was no system, no Intelligently di
rected purpose back of their effort.
"They submitted themselves to a
man Imposed set of conventions
which throttled and successfully cut
off every natural Impulse for better
ing the moral conditions of the
world and lay merely content to
serve In the most blind and obscuro
fashion.
"This waa the sacrifice without In
telligence. They did not know nor
realize that the Influence which
they were falling to wield was the
savin k grace of tho national life.
"But today It Is different. Thay

speaking physiologically, they can

"That Is what they will do now.
Although the averago woman In

super woman will ever be tho aid
to the super man. She will never
he hip equal. The super man. who
will rule with Intelligence, will be
aided with the rule of woman-leve."
Holding up his hand and looking
directly Into my eyes, M, Bois concluded-
"There are two gods." he said In

follows, the god of intelligence. Ho

goal Ho Kns nothing to stop him.

Answers to Health Questions
G. 1C B. Q. 1. Can the drugs you
have mentioned In your prescription for
turninr gray hair dark be secured at any
drug store and taken without a doctor's
prescription? For how many days
should the medicine be taken In order
to accomplish the results desired? Is
there any danger from letting the tinc
ture of chloride of Iron touch the teeth?
Can it bo taken, say. In a gelatine cap
sule or the capsules sometimes used for
taking castor oil? 2. Would these same
drugs be effective on a whlto horse,
cow, dog or chicken? That is, turn the
hair to a darker color, and if so, would
the change bo permanent or only last
until tho change of tho season?
A. 1. Tho tincture of chloride of Iron
and the cream or paste of carbonate of
Iron may be had at any drug store. The
formula for tho cream of carbonate of
Iron ls: To one dram of carbonate of
iron there should be added I ounce of
vaseline. They may be used without a
doctor a prescription. Tincture of
chloride of Iron is taken In 30-drop doses
in a wineglassful of water through a
tube after meals The cream is applied
each night to the scalp. The average
length of time taken to accomplish tho
desired results le about one month. In
some ensrs It may be longer. In others
Hhortcr Iron will make tho teeth dark
If It comes In contact with them. It
may be taken in tho capsules, but It
Is best taken through a tube in water.
2. No, it would not be satisfactory' on
sinn animals, because It would only last
a few days, when the color would have
t j be renewed. This Is too expensive to
use on large surfaces such as on ani
mals. W. T. V. Q. Will you please tell me
what to do for gray hlr to restore the

A, Take 10 to W drops of tlncturo of

Iron, 1 dram; vaseline, 1 ounce, to tho
scalp Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
