ident and Carlos de la Rosa as Vice

niversary of the death of Jose Marti,
remained quiet.

matic corps tonight at the Havana
Yacht Clubs. Mrs. C. C. Jordan, wife
of the first secretary of the American

ASSERTS FARM LABOR
HAMPERS EDUCATION
America's Barefoot Boy Lacks Op
portunity for Study, Is
Bureau's Showing.
America's barefoot boy is suffering
In an educational wav today from his
environment on the farms of the Na
tion. He is getting Teas education to
day than any other group, of children.
Including his sister, who does not work
ort the farm, according to the Bureau
of Education.
Profitable employment, the bureau
has determined, has had a detrimental
effect on high School attendance by
farm boys in many rural communities,
while opportunities for attending rural
high schools for boys have been limit
ed. The barefoot boy of other days
who received the rudiments of the
three R's under the teaching of a
stern taskmaster, who imparted her
knowledge with the aid of a willow
whip, is being neglected.
Farm girls received a better educa
tion than farm boys because the farm
boy is economically useful at home.
His labor is worth something, and the
farmer has found little relationship
between high school training and oc
cupational sucoesp. On the other hand,
the labor of girls on the farm is not so
valuable, while the limitations of cus
tom forbid girls working at outdoor
farm tasks. The result has been (hat
they attend high school in large num
bers.
While riding on a passenger train
from Manchester, England, recently,
Ambrose Welfare saw a boy in a
canal, left the train at the next sta
tion, ran back, dived and rescued the
lad, who then was unconscious.
It bounds back just twice as far! ”
Measuring the spring
in each pair of heels
DOWN swings the metal hammer of
this testing machine—strikes an
ordinary rubber heel and bounces
back.
The distance that it bounds back is
measured automatically.
Then an O’Sullivan Heel is put in the
machine. The hammer swings down
again . . . strikes . . .
and bounds back just twice as far!
Rubber as resilient as this is not only
springy— it’s so tough and fine grained
that it will also wear. And those two
things—springiness and wear—are what
you want when you buy rubber heels.

Exaggeration
♦
Punktown boosters, in their
ardor, sometimes knock the truth
askew, and this sort of thing comes
harder on the town than knocks
would do. I have evermore insisted
that no falsehoods be cxprest; I
have wotted, 1 have wisted. that the
truth is always best. Punktown’s
merits are so striking she is sure to
gain renown; let t4ic pikers do their
piking in some less deserving town.
Came a stranger to our city, and
his given name was James, and his
story roused the pity of all dele
gates and dames. He had lost his
costly dwelling in a distant, wind
swept clime, where tornadoes come
up yelling, pulling stunts which are
a crime. “Now I wish to dwell for
ever,” he remarked, with falling
tear, “where no cyclones come to
sever all the ties a man holds dear.
Where a man won’t see his stables
blown away in storm and wrack;
where the wind won't blow the
gables from the north end of his
shack.” And the boosters cried,
"Oh, stranger, if in Punktown
you abide, you will never be in
danger, here no cyclones are sup
plied. Only balmy breezes fan us
in this calm, sequestered vale, and
no tempest ever ran us; we have
never seen a gale.” So the stranger
bought a shanty just beyond the
public square, and he settled with
his auntie in a calm contentment
there. And he just was nicely
settled when a windstorm came
along; it was rude and highly
mettled, it was truculent and strong.
And it tore his shack to slivers,
and it blew away his hat, and he's
using ink in rivers, telling all the
world of that.
