Dress and Education Program
~f—
When little girls begin to think and
talk about dress It Is the mother's op-
portunity to form their taste on cor-
rect lines.. "Pretty" Is a word very
often on the small girl's lips. She
wants to W pretty. She understands
that clothes have much to do with
making people "look pretty." Under
Iho Impression that they are properly
discouraging vanity, many mothers
now tryIft-dlvert the child's thoughts
from the effect that, clothes have on
the person. Their motives aro aU
right, but their methods are often all
wrong and, sometimes result In mak-
ing ttfr rfclkl too Indifferent of appear-
ances.
The, girl will bo saved from vanity
concerning her personal beauty if she
is taoglit to see beauty in a wide range
of natural objects, A flower is beau-
tiful; n leaf with its fine veins is beau-
tiful; so is a waterfall, and the arch
of ft horse's ncck. It Is well to explain
to the little girl how the pretty round-
ness of her body anil the #ow in her
cheeks ore related to fcmlth. To pre-
serve the pretty glow and keep Uie
body Utbe and graceful, clothes and
shoes must be comfortable as well ns
pretty. Shoes must bo of the r' .t
size rind shape, so that the little 6 ow-
ing toes may not bo nilsslmpen. The
Uttlff girl should learn to think of her-
self Ifrom head <*>' fNrt. and not only
of her face.

Students Build Schoolhouse.
The practicability of the manual
training work being taught in many
public schools has been demonstrated
recently In Las Vegas, N. M. A new
building was required to accommodate
a department of the normal school.
Plans were drawn by the students and
a two-story building, 4 by 80 feet In
size, was erected entirely by the work
of the boy students under the direction
of the professor. The building contains
all the requisites for manual training
work, including a number of electrical
conveniences. The work done by the
students has saved at least $5,000 to
