BY THE WAY Mt ANY American boys would like to go to a school in India described by a writer in the "New Republic"-a school under the management of Rabindranath Tagore, the Hindu poet. While the writer quoted was talking to one of the teachers in this school-an Englishman, it happened-"several of the older boys came up to tell him that they were going off for a three days' excursion-they had just returned from a week's holiday. 'How jolly that is!' said Mr. Andrews, 'and their college examinations are only a week away. How hard I have been working to get them to feel independent of their examinations! It's quite splendid, isn't it?" "These people," the writer concludes, "are not after success at all; they are simply after goodness and happiness." One wonders, then, why they have "college examinations." Ferro-chromium steel, according to "Shipping," will soon be produced as cheaply as ordinary steel. The importance of this statement lies in the fact that this steel is rust-free. Small articles have for some time been made from it, but a new method of cheap production, which will be engaged in on a large scale in Norway, will, it is believed, prove "epoch-making" in shipbuilding. The healthiest occupation one can adopt, according to a list made by the United States Department of Labor after investigating causes of death in nearly 200,000 cases in twenty different occupations, is that of the farmer or farm laborer. The average age at time of death among farmers is given as 58.5 years. The most hazardous occupation is that of bookkeeper or office assistantaverage age at death only 36.5 years; railway enginemen and trainmen live only 37.4 years; plumbers and gas fitters, 39.8 years; compositors and printers, 40.2 years. Accident makes the life of the railway man short, while the greatest enemy of the bookkeeper, plumber, and printer is tuberculosis.

The instrument is like two grand pianos placed end to end and inclosed in one frame, but with a single soundboard. The keyboards are at opposite ends and the players face each other. To the literature of theatrical mishaps Mr. Otis Skinner contributes this incident through the columns of a daily paper: "At Cincinnati one night when I was playing 'Kismet' we had trouble with our warm-water pool. Instead of slightly heated water the pipes were pouring jets of steam into it. I was called on to throw the Grand Vizier, Mr. Hamilton Revelle, into the pool. We had forgotten to tell him about the temperature, and when he struck the water he let out a yell which we thought would break up the show. But it didn't, and the next day the critics complimented Revelle on the spontaneous outcry he made when I threw him to his death." An English essayist, J. C. Squire, when asked what his initials "stand for" refused to tell a correspondent, but in one of his essays enters upon a panegyric of the name John that gives a clue as to the letters which follow his first initial. He says: "There is no name like John. It is as fixed as the English landscape and the procession of the seasons. It never becomes wearisome or tarnished. Nothing affects it; nothing can bring it into contempt; it stands like a rock amid the turbulent waves of human history, as fine and noble a thing now as it was when it first took shape on human lips." Writing of John Burroughs in the "Industrial Student," the editor of that monthly says that during an interview with Mr. Burroughs the author said that he had no interest in "first editions." "The cheaper a book is," he said, "the better I like it." Indeed, at that time, Mr. Burroughs said, he owned no first editions of his own books-possibly they were too expensive for him to own! Teacher (as reported in "Science and Inventions")-"Johnny, what is it called when four people are singing?" Johnny -"A quartet." Teacher-"What is it called when two people are singing, William?" William (after a moment's hesitation)"A pintet." The Early 'Teens HE influences of these years mold Tthe character of your boy or girl. Associations, pastimes, sources of information-all are vital, but perhaps the greatest of formative factors is good reading. No one expects a normal boy or girl to avidly absorb Walter Pater's "Epicurean" or the works of Henry James. It is only natural for youth to turn to that which is red-blooded, exciting. Unless wisely guided young people may adopt highly-colored, sensational literature that is entirely unprofitable. Parents face this problem. Its solution has long been the function of St. Nicholas. In it, boys and girls find the things they want to know. They find things that develop their minds and furnish food for wholesome thought. The intensely interesting high-lights of history; outdoor sports and games; the marvels of nature and science; short stories and serials; facts about great men; tales of other lands; prizes for writing, drawing, photography, and puzzlesall that appeals to boys and girls, from eight to eighteen, has its place in ST NICHOLAS for Boys and Girls Add St. Nicholas to your boy's or girl's reading. Let them enjoy the comradeship of St. Nicholas authors who so well know how to talk to them in their own language. St. Nicholas by the year costs $4.00-less than two cents a day. Send check or money order to St. Nicholas Magazine. Subscription Dept. C-22, 353 Fourth Avenue, New York. |
