common life means jreat happiness. And
such appreciation should be applied to
the common things. The sunlight flash
ing on a stretch of water, the lights and
shadows on a hillside In autumn, the flash
of a butterfly's wing all these are trifles,
yet beautiful.
Thcio wns a little girl once who waa a
regular sunbeam. Hho wasn't particularly
well off, for her mother was a widow, and
there wero Iota of other little sisters and
brothers tolie cared for and looked after.
Hut that didn't make the slightest differ
euro to her happiness.
She lived In the country, In a little
house away from other people. They
had no maid to help, and so this little
girl did u great denl In tootling after the
other children. Hho was only a child
herself, and outsiders said It was a shame
that slio should have to work so hard,
mid have no proper childhood nor any
of the pleasures which other children en
Joyed. ...
Yet, ns a matter of fact, tHat little girl
was far happier than any of the bther
children In the neighborhood. For through
her gift of Imagination and her apprecia
tion of beauty she had a never-ending
source of pleasure. She was the sort of
child that, had she been rich, would have
had a whole nursery full of dolls. Slio
had tlio real mothpr-lnstlnct In her. How
ever, since she could not afford the dolls
she mothered her llttlo sisters and
brothers In the most wonderful way.
She had another
substitute for the dolls
she wanted but
couldn't have, loo. In
the liollow of an old
tree, beside a running
brook, where ferns
dipped lazily, she had
hidden bits of colored
glass reds and greens
and wonderful Rap
phlrn bluea. Whenever
she had an opportunity
that little girl would
run oft there and play
with these picc?s of
glass. The colors ccr-
lalm, wero beautiful and she loved
beauty In any shape or form. She called
these treasures hidden In the old tree
ncr cniiaren, ana she had names for
them all.
It Is a wonderful quality, this finding
of beauty In the common things of life,
and the possessor of It, Indeed,, owns the
philosophic stone which means happiness.

MISS ETHEL
SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS
HAS DIPLOMATIC PRIVATE SECRETARY
Miss Ethel M. Ingram's Accomplishments Cover Wide
Range and Are Equal to the Most Exacting
Conditions
Every parent or teacher who has ever
had occasion to visit the offlcc of the
Superintendent of Schools, on the 12th
floor of the Stock Exchange Building, has
had conversation with a vivacious, enthu
siastic little woman.
If the visitor was successful In an at
tempt to sec the superintendent it was
because he or she unconsciously passed
an examination before this same small
lady. She Is Miss Ethel M. Ingram, sec
retary to tho head or Philadelphia's edu
cation system.
Miss Ingram is probably better ac
quainted with persons in all branches of
public life than any other woman Jn
Pennsylvania. She is furthermore an
extraordinarily keen Judge of human na
ture. The Superintendent of Schools of this
city la. sometimes obliged to receive more
visitors in an hour than the Mayor or
Director of Public Safety- must see In a
day. That-Is one of the peculiarities of
the Job. Often there aro not enough
chairs, to accommodate all of the citizens
who for some reason, real or imaginary,
must see the superintendent at once.
However learned lip may be, no' Super
intendent ot Schools has ever learned how
to speak to more than ten persons on
ten different subjects slmultaneously.And
the unfortunate fact remains that there
are only 24 hours In a day, even on tho
12th floor of the Stock Exchange Build
ing. In consequence of these conditions.
Miss Ingram must be a greater diplomat
than Secretary Lansing. All of the vis
itors explain that they must see the
Superintendent on "important" busi
ness. Often they insist that the very fate
of the school system itself depends upon
their ability to have a "short talk" with
the busy official. None of them will ad
mit that the business can be transacted
as well tomorrdw as today, and an in
dignant taxpayer will even threaten a
protest to the Board of Education, if lie
or she can no't be admitted at once to
the sanctum sanctorum.

INGRAM
cation, Miss Ingram occupies a position.
She describes It herself as a "Job." But
the casual observer of Miss Ingram's
activities will willingly conccdo that It
is a "profession." No lawyer must ever
be more suave than Miss Ingram; no
physician must act with greater decision;
no social worker must be more Intimate
ly acquainted with the peculiarities of
each grade of society and no psychologist
must have a greater understanding of
tho types of mind that make up human
ity. To "separate the sheep from the goats"
Is Miss Ingram's particular duty. And
she does It with such surprising Buccess
that the three officials whom she has
served have been unstinted in their
commendations, written and informal.
Her first "boss" was Dr. Martin Q.
Brumbaugh, and upon his election to tho
Governorship she was retained by Dr.
William C. Jacobs. The latter died last
August and Miss Ingram's present supe
rior Is Dr. John P. Garber, acting Super
intendent of Schools. It has been whis
pered about In educational circles that
the Governor has oered. her a lucrative,
place at Harrlsburg. but that she refused
higher pay that she might remain In
Philadelphia. Miss Ingram Is a society
girl.
CHRISTMAS GOLD HERE
Five Million in Bullion Will Be Con
verted Into Coin
Tne Christmas gold has arrived and the
United States Mint will begin work Imme
diately on transforming the Ave million in
bullion which arrived here yesterday
Into $3,000,000 In $5 and ?10 pieces. Already
demands have been made by the banks
for a good supply of the coin.
The gold arrived here yesterday from
New York by express. As it was taken
up Broad street in two ordinary express
wagons, under heavy guard, the passing
crowds were little aware that a fortune
was contained In the 64 little kegs which
the wagons were hauling. The Govern
ment had planned to send the bullion by
parcel post, but when the news leaked
out the plans were quickly changed and
the gold was sent by express.

CHUROIES0F0LNEY
WONT JOIN PARADE
OF SUNDAY SCHOOLS
Northeastern Suburb Declines
to Participate Formally In
Cominp; Monster Review
Despite Persuasion
INDIVIDUALS MAY MARCH
One section of Philadelphia will be
practically without representation In the
monster Sunday school review which la
to take place on Saturday and In which
about 130,000 men, women and children
aro oxpectcd to participate. This sec
tion Is Olney, a busy, growing and thriv
ing confmtinlty lying north of the Heading,
nallway's Now Tork division tracks and
cast of Old Tork road. Although there are
five prosperous and progtcsslve Trotesj
tunt churches In this community, ltono of
them will participate In tho demonstra
tion which has created so much Intcresl
In religious circles during the last few
weeks.' . , ,
Kfforls of George II. Streaker, chair-,
man of tho Central Committee In Charge
of the annual parades and demonstra
tion,' and members of his committee to
have Olney Join In It this year have been
unavailing. Tho churches In Olney have
never participated In a parade and, ac
cording to Sunday school officials and
pastors, there docs not seem to be much
Inclination on their part to parade. Mr.
Streakor spoke In Olney twice for tho
purposo of trying to persuade tho Sun
day schools to Join In tho movement, but
the prospects at present arc for no united
observance In that community. V
Therio has been a possibility that the
schools, of St. James' Methodist Episcopal
Church and tho Trcsbytcrlan Church
would' parade, but this plan was Anally
called) ofT. The St. James' school had, It
Is said', announced that It would partici
pate If the school of the' First Presbyte
rian Church did so. But, since the Pres
byterian Church has a full week of rally
exercises In progress and Blnce there
seemed no possibility that other schools
besides. St. James would Join In the dem
onstration, the officials of the school de
cided not to enter the celebration.
One of the reasons advanced for the
lack of Interest In the review in the ON'
ney Bectlon was given by the Rev. Vi.
II. Wells, pastor of the thriving Presby
terian congregation, lie said that, since
Olney seemed to be rather Isolated so)
far as Its location was concerned, and
the town's schools were supposed to
unite In the demonstration in Burholm
Park, which 'was rather out of the way
from the community. It was difficult to
get the citizens interested. lie Intimated
that there might have been less difficulty
If there had been some assembling cen
tre nearer. Since Olney will not go to
Burholm Park to participate in the dem
onstration, it Is probable, it Is said, that
the schools of Fox Chase will be the
only ones that will assemble there for ex
ercises. Another reason that Olney does not
have a united place In Saturday's big'
demonstration, It Is asserted, is that three
of the churches In that place or in the
community adjacent thereto never par
ticipate in anything outside their own
congregations
