All the sweetness stored throughout

So, with cheeks agiowing
Welcome we the snowing

Happy Little Girls
in Zuzuland
By H. D. HOLT, London. England
In few countries are the
native girls happier up to
the age *if about ten than
in Zululand; in still fewer
countries do they have p
harder existence after that.
According to their tradition,
it is not seemly for the men to work more than they ean help. 1 lie-
women, therefore, do most of the manual labor, while their hus'.mmls
fathers nd brothers laugh and sink', lie about -at their kraals am. tell
one another what fine fellows they are.
A little Zulu girl is welcomed into the world by her futher because
Bhe will become a valuable asset in years to come. If she is taken care of
some Zulu lover will pay a cow, or perhaps two cows, for the privilege of
marrying the lady, and so that she may retain all her charms the little
maid is not allowed to do any hard work until she marries, excepting such
things as carrying food or fuel on her head to her parents kraal.
Whatever she may be carrying, a Zulu girl instinctively puts it on lu-r
head. If she goes to a store to buy a pot of jam she walks gravely over
the rugged country with it balanced there, and 1 liuvi seen women in
remote districts earning great-bundles of wood, which 1 tried and failed
to lift quite oft the ground. They get it on to the head unaided by
lifting up one end first and gradually working the body under the burden
until it is balanced. It is ecrtuinly no exaggeration to say the women
could carry a bundle equal to their own weight for twenty miles in a
day and think nothing much of the feat.
The younger Zulu women have a noble carriage, which is the result
of carrying burdens on their heads. They walk with a singularly stately
tread, their head and shoulders being thrown well back. But as they
get older the drudgery of working in the fields begins to tell on them,
and there is very little difference in the appearance of a woman of forty
and a woman forty years her senior.

Woman's Secret of

By C. W. NORTON. New Yoik
When asked how site ac-
complished st) much work

large family replied* “I

_________________ easy woric. If you live in
a nerve-racking rush, trv what keeping u schedule will do for you.
Buy a notebook and heal opposite pages with the day and date. Be-
fore going to l>ed plan and write down the work of the next day. In the
evening sum up what lias been accomplished.
It does not take long to keep this simple schedule, but it is surprising
how quickly you learn system from it. Busy women go so fur as to plan ;
certain duties for certain hours. ,
Do not plan to do too much in one day, for then the opposite page
is a uiMippointment which spurs you to unwise efforts or needless .l.sccir-
agement. What is left undone one day may tie carried over to the next
dny’s planning page as a jog against procrastination.
Reading over such a notebook is an object lesson to the shiftless house-
wife who works bv fits atnl starts, gets nothing accomplished, bus no time
for leisure, and ends by being a nuisance to herself and a burden to her
family.

I lands of small roses; "Autumn’'
! should have brown dresses with fall
leaves In red and brown tints, and
“Winter’' all white with holly wreaths
and mistletoe, or red dresses trim-
med In cotton.
"Spring" should enter first and
march to the front of platform and
sing the first verse of the following
song, which is easy to sing to the
tune of “Swinging 'Neath the Old Ap-
ple Tree.” At the end of the lines,
two of the girls turn to the right and
two to the left and march down the
sides joining at the back In a line.
"Summer,” "Autumn” and “Winter"
follow, a group at a time sing their
verse and inarch as did "Spring" and
take their places at the back behind
the preceding "season.” This retains
"Spring” at the front, and then all
join hands, forming a circle, and sing
the chorus through and march off in
single file, “Spring" leading. It is
really very effective.
Happy Childhood's hours,
With the budding flowers,
With the warbling songsters
In leafy trees;
When the earth rejoices,
Glad we join our voices,
Happy in the spring we arc.
CHORUS.
Happy Childhood! Happy Childhood!
Singing ail the day right merrily;
Happy Childhood! Happy Childhood!
Happy all the year are we.
In the summer weather,
Glad we are together,
CHORUS.
A Spinster Shower for “Polly.”
"Polly” had at last succumbed to
Cupid's wiles and the spinster club
to which she belonged resolved to do

The Invitations were on green card-
; board, lettered in yellow. They were1
so pretty that it was some time before
| the recipient realized they were sup-
posed to represent jealousy.
Each guest took a dainty tea cup
and saucer, the hostess providing the
j pot. All were asked to bring their
thimbles. The work provided by the
hostess was a variety of tea towels.
Then the hostess requested the bride-
elect to make a cup of tea as a fare-
well to the other spinsters. The maid
brought in a tray with the cups and
saucers, each cup bearing a black
cat shaped card on which the donor s
name, and a sentiment were inscribed
in white ink. I forgot to say, these
cat cards were enclosed with the invi-
tations, and the cups were all sent to
the hostess the day before the shower.
Every one said It was a most unique
way of giving a shower.

Why Woman Should
Have Preference
By Eugenic Comment, St. L-ouu, Mo.
Men ought to give women j
the preference w lie^*e Heat-
ing is the question because
every wotunu may he or is a
mother. As few aoMiors
serve their time in the army
_ without some physical dis- ;
ability to show for it, bo few women endure maternity without injury.
The young woman, if not actually, is potentially, a mother.
Because of the fact that motherhood means risk of life, risk of health
and certainty of agony and self-denial, we ask you to make the om.Mona! j
sacrifice, not of life, not of health, hut of comfort.
The sharp jolt which is a moment’s unpleasantness to you may mean
a life of invalidism to that young girl, the life «f her unliorn child as well
as her own to the expectant mother, and cruel torture to the woman who
is of the neuter sex, as the French term it.
But alas! “neuter” though she may now he. she is forever to ntTe-
for the long hours of bringing a man child into the world.
A Philadelphia court has ruled that differences as to the pr-per
ventilation of the home not sufficient cause for divorce. Hut it mdi-
oates another question that might be settled in the prenuptial arrange- j
ments.
Ideal husbands are made of “foreigners educated down" to American
women’s notions, says an American countess. Scarcely a day passes that
we don’t learn something.

A meeting of all Kentuckians of the Chester Wells, Freeport, 111.
state of Oklahoma has been called for graduates from the four years course
10 o’clock Saturday morning. July 12,
by the state Kentucky club at the
Chamber of Commerce rooms in Okla-
homa City to discuss plans for the
Oklahoma state buildign at the State i
Fair grounds. Invitations have been
mailed to more than 1500 former resi-
dents of Kentucky to attend the meet-
ing.
Numerous plans have been suggest-
ed at the last three annual meetings
of the state organization at the Stale
Fair for financing and building such
a structure but nothing resulted from
the discussions. A plan for the in-
corporation of the club with provlsicns
in the charter for issuing stock was
devised by W. B. Richards, deputy
secretary of state, and th? discussloi
of the plan resulted in the call being
made for the state meeting. The mem
hers of the committee working on the
proposition are: W. B. Richards. M.
Cornelius, E. G. Bedford, Attorney J.
IT. Keaton, and Judge J. B. Harrison
of the state supreme court commis-
sion.
in journalism at the University
Wisconsin this month, has been i
pointed by the state university to <
ganize a department of journalism a
develop the publicity work at that
stilution. He will enter upon his n<
duties in September.
Mr. Wells had practical newspap
experience before entering the univ
sity as city editor, advertising mi
ager, and assistant business mana£
of the Freeport (111.) Standard.
At the university he has been m;
aging editor of the Daily Cardinal, t
itor-in-chief of the Wisconsin Mai
zine, and editor of the Badger.
The good roads bill finally passed
the house of representatives with the
emergency attached. It abolished the
state highway commissioner, but re-
tains the state highway department
under the general supervision of the
state geological survey, and makes
numerous changes In the road laws of
the state. The bill as passed will
remove State Highway Commissioner
Sidney Suggs from office unless Gov.
Cruce vetoes the bill.
