MISSES INFLUENCE ON CHILD Hard to Exaggerate How Important It Can Be Made in the Training of Youth. Story-hour has always been the standby of youth, gleefully anticipat- ing the soothing close of the day. Ev- ery mother, too, has appreciated these minutes day after day, as a blessing in the training and development of her child. It is an indisputable fact that a child never absorbs more than when it is interested and amused. So dur- ing the pleasant story hours the child learns about the joys, the sorrows, the disappointments—in short, all the les- sons of life. But now some resourceful mother has discovered how to improve this ancient institution. How? By setting its libretto to music; by putting into song all the liftle tales of the hour cheerful tunes for tales of joy; low, soft tunes for sad tales; clamorous tunes for victories. * Heretofore so many children have grown to manhood and womanhood without the helpful influence of music, probably because the mother has put forth such feeble excuses as “I am pot musical; I can only play for my own amusement.” “I don’t know enough about music to teach it to my chil- dren.” These Ideas are old-fashioned now, and no longer hold water. Any little tune, no matter how weakly sung or played, but fitting in with the mood of the tale or action of the moment, delights the child, and unconsciously leaves behind an indelible influence and a recollection of happy days. Every community, no matter how small or isolated, is expected by the United States government to stage some kind of a demonstration in the interest of the Liberty Loan Pa- triotic mass meetings are finding much favor in almost all parts of the nation and entertainment “geniuses” are put- ting on many attractive “side shows” In connection with them. An abun- dance of patriotic music is provided at all the meetings. ♦**************4"|>**** i 1 $ Help Put This I Town on a 3 I SOLID j| t FOUNDATION o j I t n li o $ O The success of the home mer- £ q chant means the SUCCESS OF f | THE TOWN.

A feature of this volume is a full description of the new' state capitol, illustrated with views of interior decorations. Another feature of this year’s book is an article on the health of the state with a gra- phic chart that explains causes of death from preventive diseases. In this volume has been incorporated a short but rather complete description of all of the state parks. The general data included in the volume are: The constitutions of the United States and Wisconsin; census data on Wiscon- sin; list of all papers published in the state; a brief sketch of each de- partment of government and the du- ties it performs; historical data on the organization of Wisconsin terri- tory, with a short history of the pro- gress of the state. Bad Showing. “This advertiser says there is a thought iii every chew of his tobacco.” “That’s not a good advertisement.” “Why not?” “Any person who can’t get but one thought out of a chew of tobacco that lasts half an hour on an Average.

It fea- tures Charles Ray, a young million- aire, who wagers he can earn a dollar a day and live on it. He goes into the slums to prove his contention. There he meets a strange assortment of hu- man beings, among them a woman known as “the angel of the slums.” The police attempt to arrest this girl on a trumped-up charge, but Ray puts up a fight that takes him dashing over roof tops, clambering down water spouts, etc. Through such situations as these the inherent manliness of the young idler comes to the surface. Again we have a Paramount picture dealing with that splendid organiza- tion, the Royal Northwest mounted police of Canada. It will be remember- ed that one of Pauline Frederick’s re- cent pictures, “Nanette of the Wilds,” dealt with the brave fellows and in “The Long Trail,” starring Lou-Telle- gen and Mary Fuller on the Para- mount. program, they again take an important part in shaping the destin- ies of the players. “The Long Trail” is a Famous Players picture and may be seen at the Majestic Sunday and Monday. “American—That’s All” is the title of the new Triangle play in which Jack Devereaux and Winifred Allen are featured at the Classic tonight. It is a typical American comedy, in which the hero and the heroine enter the business world with startling re- sults. It is produced under the super- vision of Allan Dwan, Arthur Rosson directing the production. Robert Shir- ley is the author, George Beban, the celebrated Mo- rosco-Pailas star who will be seen at the Majestic tonight in one of his fa- mous Latin characterizations “The Cook of Canyon Camp,” is seen as the cook in a lumber camp in the Cana- dian woods, and his greatest culinary achievement is making “flapjacks. It is one of the most unusual and clever- ly done bits ever seen on the screen. —O Picturesque Marblehead is the scene of portions of Viola Dana’s Metro wonderplay, “Aladdin’s Other Lamp,” to be seen at the Majestic Saturday. This delightful production, presented by B. A. Rolfe and directed by John H. Collins, has been adapted by June Mathis from Willard Mack’s playlet, “The Dream Girl.” On Saturday pictures of the Labor day parade and Liberty loan parade will be shown at the Classic, with a feature Keystone comedy, “Skidding Hearts," featuring Ora Carew, and in- sures the patrons a varied bill. j IbOWLING [ The Interurban Buffets lost three close games to the Lange Colts at the Remmel alleys Wednesday evening: INTERURBAN BUFFETS.

He is a verj poor "shot,” but a generous giver- facts well-known to Jack, the attend ant. Last Christmas he was out shooting and a rabbit jumped up about ten yard? away. Bang went both barrels, but bunny escaped with a whole skin. “Did I hit him, Jack?” asked the parson in an excited whisper. “Well,” said Jack, thoughtfully, “I couldna say ’zactly as you ’lt ’im, but I mus’ say I nivver seed a rabbit wuss scared. Ye’re vastly improved sin’ last year, sir.” The clergyman smiled proudly. “An’ if ye keeps on Improvin’ and comes- again next year, why”—with a shake of his head —“summat’ll happen to that rabbit!” Oh, Doctor! “My dear, what are you doing in my trousers pockets:" said Titely at 2 a. m. “Why, (he doctor said I must have a little change,” returned his spouse.

Say, Tom. did you see the hat?” It was not till Clara Tomson —still known to customers as Milo. Clarice In spite of her marriage to the younger member of the firm of Tomson Broth- ers —had repeated her interrogation for the third time that Tom Tomson, her brother-in-law, looked up from his desk and grunted a negative. And just then the other Mr. Tom- son —Bob Tomson. Clara’s husband came into his brother’s office where his wife was waiting to go to luncheon with him, and before she had tipie to put her question to him he had made that question unnecessary. “Say, where did you get the girl with the cherry hat?” he laughed, and then slipping into the slang current among the girls who worked in the millinery workrooms of which his wife still chose to he In charge, he added; “Some hat, that. Did the kid make it herself?” “You don’t suppose she could have bought it, do you? I guess there was a tire sale on cherries at the five and ten- cent store out in Podunk just before she made her way to the city. You wouldn’t have to be told that she came from the country. But I’m not going to let the girls tease her. She seems like a nice sort and it’s her first job.” The elder Mr. Tomson saw the girl—- little Margaret Daw, the young ap- prentice—Just as she stood at her lock- er, and before she had taken off her much-discussed headgear he had a Chance to look and to smile. Clara and his younger brother found considerable time to cast bantering remarks about “Miss Cherry Hat,” as they called her. Tom # was too much preoccupied to join them. To Tom Tomson hats were what tons of coal are to big mine operators, or “best sellers” to the publisher, or magnetic stars to theatrical managers. He could no more have designed a hat than he could have designed a yacht—- no more than the mine operator could have mined coal or the theatrical man- ager could have taken a leading role. But he knew, or thought he knew, good hats when he saw them. There was a look of understanding among the girls in the workrooms when he had “Miss Cherry Hat” trarrsferred from the workrooms to his own office. It was one day a few weeks after Margaret Daw had started work at Tomson’s that the younger member of the company came to his brothfr in a serious mood and began to talk about the girl. “I don’t want to butt into your pri- vate affairs,” he said, “but if you real- ly want to be seen with that little country girl, can’t you Induce her to wear a regular hat? Haven’t you ever spoken to her about that cherry thing?” “No,” answered Tom, “I haven’t, and perhaps the reason I haven’t is because we have had too many other things to talk about. Miss Daw is an extremely charming and capable young woman.” “Oh, that’s the way the wind blows, is it?” returned the brother. “Well, she does seem a nice enough girl. But, honestly. Tom, couldn’t you do some- thing about her hat?” “She knows her business,” interrupt- ed Tom. “That Miss Daw has got some Ideas that are going to make things hum.” “You don’t mean that she knows any- thing about hats! A girl that would wear that —it’s a wmnder you don’t want her to take Clara’s place in the workrooms.” “No, I don’t think that will be neces- sary. She can stay here in the office with me and simply hand her idea on to Clara for execution.” It was an hour later when Clara had returned from luncheon and she and her husband and Margaret Daw were closeted with Tom Tomson in his private office. •*Well, now we are here, what is the news?” the younger Tomson began. “That Miss Daw has consented to marry me, for one thing,” beamed Tom. “I guess it is no surprise that I wanted her to —and now I am going to get her to tell us who made that cherry hat. She has never told me. I have only guessed.” Margaret reached to her desk where the much-maligned piece of millinery was lying. Holding it caressingly in her hand she turned it over, and there re- vealed the name that made Bob and Clara start back with surprise. It was the name of the greatest of Parisian milliners. “Now I will tell you my little story,” Margaret explained. “I came here with a purpose. I have studied costume de- signing for several years in this coun- try and abroad. A few months ago I joined forces with a group of students and designers, who were of the opinion that the American manufacturer and the American public cling to Paris-de- signed hats and garments merely for the name. I wanted to find out if we were right. I managed to get that cherry hat and a few others through Paris in spite of the war. So, you see, I have not proved my theory. But it doesn’t really matter—” “No,” Tom said, taking up the thread of the explanation, “because she isn’t going hack to her artist friends any more. She has consented, even when we are married, to be the court of ap- peals on all matters of hat designing.” (Copyright, 1917, by the McClure Newspa- per Syndicate.)

IQllffl jae|h EGG-LAYING AGE OF PULLETS Where Conditions Are Unfavorable Six Months Is Average—Meat Types Are Much Slower. Different breeds mature and com- mence laying at slightly different times. In general, under a utility classification, pullets of the egg breeds, such as Leghorn, Minorca, Hamburg and Ancona, mature early and begin to lay eggs at four or five months under favorable conditions. Where the con- ditions are not favorable to induce early egg laying, six months is prob- ably a nearer average for the time to commence laying. Meat types, such as Brahma, Cochin China and Langshan, Barred Rock Pullet. are slower in maturity, taking six to eight months or longer for a pullet to get into egg-laying condition. General purpose types, such as Ply- mouth Rock, Wyandotte, Rhode Island Red, Orpington and Dominique, ma- ture more quickly than those of the meat type and the pullets may be ex- pected to lay at from five to six months, although some mature at four and one-half months. There are cases on record where individuals of the early maturing egg breeds have begun to lay in about three months, although this is in special cases. FATTENING FOOD FOR DUCKS Cornmeal, Wheat Bran and Beef Scraps Mixed Crumbly With Milk, Is Recommended as Good. A good fattening food for ducks is three parts cornmeal, one part wheat bran and one part high-grade beef scraps mixed crumbly with milk or W’a- ter and fed at morning and noon. The evening food should consist of cracked corn. No more should be fed at each meal than they will eat up promptly, and then the troughs should be re- moved. WATER OF MUCH IMPORTANCE High-Priced Feed Alone Will Not Pro- duce Eggs to Any Great Extent- Keep Up Water Supply. From the hen’s viewpoint, water is w T orth just as much as feed, for she cannot make an egg with either one alone. Therefore, the man who fur- nishes high-priced feed but neglects the w r ater supply is making a great mistake and will have to be content with a limited egg yield. SHADE FOR GROWING CHICKS Ample Shelter Afforded in Orchard or Corn Field—Fowls Destroy Bugs and Worms. Plenty of shade should be provided for growing chicks. When allowed to range in an orchard or cornfield they will not only find ample shade and green feed hut will benefit the trees or corn as well as themselves by destroy- ing bugs and worms. Sometimes sun- flowers are grown for shade. Artificial protection against the sun’s rays may be obtained by supporting frames cov- ered with burlap a few feet above the ground. FREE RANGE IS BENEFICIAL Growing Chicks Should Be Supplied With as Much Natural Green Feed as Possible. Whenever it Is possible, growing chicks should be allowed free range, so they may obtain as much natural green feed as they need in addition to bugs and worms. When green feed cannot be obtained on range, such feed as sprouted oats, cut clover, mangel- vsinsl beets, etc., should be fed dally. | Market Reports | Milwaukee Live Stock Market Milwaukee, Oct. 26.—Hogs, receipts, 3500; steady.

Ev-ery mother, too, has appreciated theseminutes day after day, as a blessing inthe training and development of herchild. It is an indisputable fact thata child never absorbs more than whenit is interested and amused. So dur-ing the pleasant story hours the childlearns about the joys, the sorrows, thedisappointments—in short, all the les-sons of life.

But now some resourceful motherhas discovered how to improve thisancient institution. How? By settingits libretto to music; by putting intosong all the liftle tales of the hour—cheerful tunes for tales of joy; low,soft tunes for sad tales; clamoroustunes for victories. *

Heretofore so many children havegrown to manhood and womanhoodwithout the helpful influence of music,probably because the mother has putforth such feeble excuses as “I am potmusical; I can only play for my ownamusement.” “I don’t know enoughabout music to teach it to my chil-dren.” These Ideas are old-fashionednow, and no longer hold water. Anylittle tune, no matter how weakly sungor played, but fitting in with the moodof the tale or action of the moment,delights the child, and unconsciouslyleaves behind an indelible influenceand a recollection of happy days.

Every community, no matter howsmall or isolated, is expected by theUnited States government to stagesome kind of a demonstration in theinterest of the Liberty Loan Pa-triotic mass meetings are finding muchfavor in almost all parts of the nationand entertainment “geniuses” are put-ting on many attractive “side shows”In connection with them. An abun-dance of patriotic music is provided atall the meetings.

RISKY.

At a certain time every year a clergyman goes to a farm a Jew miles out tchave a day’s shooting. He is a verj

poor "shot,” but a generous giver-facts well-known to Jack, the attendant.

Last Christmas he was out shootingand a rabbit jumped up about ten yard?away.

Bang went both barrels, but bunnyescaped with a whole skin.

“Did I hit him, Jack?” asked theparson in an excited whisper.

“Well,” said Jack, thoughtfully, “Icouldna say ’zactly as you ’lt ’im, butI mus’ say I nivver seed a rabbit wussscared. Ye’re vastly improved sin’ lastyear, sir.”

The clergyman smiled proudly.“An’ if ye keeps on Improvin’ and

comes- again next year, why”—with ashake of his head—“summat’ll happento that rabbit!”

Oh, Doctor!“My dear, what are you doing in my

trousers pockets:" said Titely at 2a. m.

“Why, (he doctor said I must have alittle change,” returned his spouse.

ft* toto By JANE OSBORN. tofnt.ll.hMßmNMhkV

“Say, did you see the hat? Say, Tom.did you see the hat?”

It was not till Clara Tomson—stillknown to customers as Milo. Clarice Inspite of her marriage to the youngermember of the firm of Tomson Broth-ers—had repeated her interrogation forthe third time that Tom Tomson, herbrother-in-law, looked up from his deskand grunted a negative.

And just then the other Mr. Tom-son—Bob Tomson. Clara’s husband—

came into his brother’s office where hiswife was waiting to go to luncheonwith him, and before she had tipie toput her question to him he had madethat question unnecessary.

“Say, where did you get the girl withthe cherry hat?” he laughed, and thenslipping into the slang current amongthe girls who worked in the millineryworkrooms of which his wife stillchose to he In charge, he added;“Some hat, that. Did the kid make itherself?”

“You don’t suppose she could havebought it, do you? I guess there was atire sale on cherries at the five and ten-cent store out in Podunk just beforeshe made her way to the city. Youwouldn’t have to be told that she camefrom the country. But I’m not goingto let the girls tease her. She seemslike a nice sort and it’s her first job.”

The elder Mr. Tomson saw the girl—-little Margaret Daw, the young ap-prentice—Just as she stood at her lock-er, and before she had taken off hermuch-discussed headgear he had aChance to look and to smile. Clara andhis younger brother found considerabletime to cast bantering remarks about“Miss Cherry Hat,” as they called her.Tom

#was too much preoccupied to join

them.To Tom Tomson hats were what

tons of coal are to big mine operators,or “best sellers” to the publisher, ormagnetic stars to theatrical managers.He could no more have designed a hatthan he could have designed a yacht—-no more than the mine operator couldhave mined coal or the theatrical man-ager could have taken a leading role.But he knew, or thought he knew, goodhats when he saw them. There was alook of understanding among the girlsin the workrooms when he had “MissCherry Hat” trarrsferred from theworkrooms to his own office.

It was one day a few weeks afterMargaret Daw had started work atTomson’s that the younger member ofthe company came to his brothfr in aserious mood and began to talk aboutthe girl.

“I don’t want to butt into your pri-vate affairs,” he said, “but if you real-ly want to be seen with that littlecountry girl, can’t you Induce her towear a regular hat? Haven’t you everspoken to her about that cherrything?”

“No,” answered Tom, “I haven’t, andperhaps the reason I haven’t is becausewe have had too many other things totalk about. Miss Daw is an extremelycharming and capable young woman.”

“Oh, that’s the way the wind blows,is it?” returned the brother. “Well,she does seem a nice enough girl. But,honestly. Tom, couldn’t you do some-thing about her hat?”

“She knows her business,” interrupt-ed Tom. “That Miss Daw has got someIdeas that are going to make thingshum.”

“You don’t mean that she knows any-thing about hats! A girl that wouldwear that—it’s a wmnder you don’twant her to take Clara’s place in theworkrooms.”

“No, I don’t think that will be neces-sary. She can stay here in the officewith me and simply hand her idea onto Clara for execution.”

It was an hour later when Clarahad returned from luncheon and sheand her husband and Margaret Dawwere closeted with Tom Tomson in hisprivate office.

•*Well, now we are here, what is thenews?” the younger Tomson began.

“That Miss Daw has consented tomarry me, for one thing,” beamed Tom.“I guess it is no surprise that I wantedher to—and now I am going to gether to tell us who made that cherryhat. She has never told me. I haveonly guessed.”

Margaret reached to her desk wherethe much-maligned piece of millinerywas lying. Holding it caressingly in herhand she turned it over, and there re-vealed the name that made Bob andClara start back with surprise. It wasthe name of the greatest of Parisianmilliners.

“Now I will tell you my little story,”Margaret explained. “I came here witha purpose. I have studied costume de-signing for several years in this coun-try and abroad. A few months ago Ijoined forces with a group of studentsand designers, who were of the opinionthat the American manufacturer andthe American public cling to Paris-de-signed hats and garments merely forthe name. I wanted to find out if wewere right. I managed to get thatcherry hat and a few others throughParis in spite of the war. So, you see,I have not proved my theory. But itdoesn’t really matter—”

“No,” Tom said, taking up the threadof the explanation, “because she isn’tgoing hack to her artist friends anymore. She has consented, even whenwe are married, to be the court of ap-peals on all matters of hat designing.”(Copyright, 1917, by the McClure Newspa-

EGG-LAYING AGE OF PULLETSWhere Conditions Are Unfavorable Six

Months Is Average—Meat TypesAre Much Slower.

Different breeds mature and com-mence laying at slightly differenttimes. In general, under a utilityclassification, pullets of the egg breeds,such as Leghorn, Minorca, Hamburgand Ancona, mature early and begin tolay eggs at four or five months underfavorable conditions. Where the con-ditions are not favorable to induceearly egg laying, six months is prob-ably a nearer average for the time tocommence laying. Meat types, such asBrahma, Cochin China and Langshan,

Barred Rock Pullet.

are slower in maturity, taking six toeight months or longer for a pullet toget into egg-laying condition.

General purpose types, such as Ply-mouth Rock, Wyandotte, Rhode IslandRed, Orpington and Dominique, ma-ture more quickly than those of themeat type and the pullets may be ex-pected to lay at from five to sixmonths, although some mature at fourand one-half months. There are caseson record where individuals of theearly maturing egg breeds have begunto lay in about three months, althoughthis is in special cases.

FATTENING FOOD FOR DUCKSCornmeal, Wheat Bran and Beef

Scraps Mixed Crumbly With Milk,Is Recommended as Good.

A good fattening food for ducks isthree parts cornmeal, one part wheatbran and one part high-grade beefscraps mixed crumbly with milk or W’a-ter and fed at morning and noon. Theevening food should consist of crackedcorn. No more should be fed at eachmeal than they will eat up promptly,and then the troughs should be re-moved. -

WATER OF MUCH IMPORTANCEHigh-Priced Feed Alone Will Not Pro-

duce Eggs to Any Great Extent-Keep Up Water Supply.

From the hen’s viewpoint, water isw Torth just as much as feed, for shecannot make an egg with either onealone. Therefore, the man who fur-nishes high-priced feed but neglectsthe wr ater supply is making a greatmistake and will have to be contentwith a limited egg yield.

SHADE FOR GROWING CHICKSAmple Shelter Afforded in Orchard or

Corn Field—Fowls DestroyBugs and Worms.

Plenty of shade should be providedfor growing chicks. When allowed torange in an orchard or cornfield theywill not only find ample shade andgreen feed hut will benefit the trees orcorn as well as themselves by destroy-ing bugs and worms. Sometimes sun-flowers are grown for shade. Artificialprotection against the sun’s rays maybe obtained by supporting frames cov-ered with burlap a few feet above theground.

FREE RANGE IS BENEFICIALGrowing Chicks Should Be Supplied

With as Much Natural GreenFeed as Possible.

Whenever it Is possible, growingchicks should be allowed free range,so they may obtain as much naturalgreen feed as they need in addition tobugs and worms. When green feedcannot be obtained on range, such feedas sprouted oats, cut clover, mangel-vsinsl beets, etc., should be fed dally.
