PIE UPON THE GRAMMARIANS!
M'LISS QUOTES FLEXNER
"JSFo More Latin, No More French, No More
I Sitting on a Hard, Wood Bench" If Doctor's
f' Modern School Is Established
SHADES of our burled grandslrest Have you rcrnl tho report of that eminent
cUucator, Dr. Abraham Flexner, on what a modern school should bo? Have
you been made to realize how deficient your early training was? How Ill-spent
was tho tlmo you used for parsing, conjugating and declining.
It may bo that becauso of tho misdirected zeal and deplorable conservatism
of your teachers you have como to know your Biibjunotlvo mood nnd tho proper
Use of your prepositions. Flo upon you! This Is nil wrong, for Dr. l-'lcxncr do
dares that tho modern school "would drop tho study of formal grninmnr."
Perhaps It Is qutto true that extrcmo cases require extreme cures. U had
occurred to mo tho other day when I listened to a conversation In oxeciablo
English botwecn two people who consider themselves well educated Hint tho
Acrews Bhoufd bo put on tighter; that the euro for bad diction Is n study Of
good diction, and that tho lax methods, or seemingly lax, to ono educated In
tho old way, already In vogue In tho schools nie beginning to show. But It
seems my suppositions aro wrong. According to Dr. riexncr, In order to speak
a superior brand of English ono should not study It at all.
It Is Interesting to note that the learned doctor In his dlatllbe Is a bit care
less of his verbs In their varying moods and lenses. This Is doubtless what tlio
"education In tho modern sense," to uso a favoilto phrase of Dr. l-'lexiior, does'
to a man.
Of course, If every child could be brought up In an environment In Which
he heard nothing but the best English, tho uselossnoss of the study of formal
grammar would bo patent to all of us. Hut If a child's mother pays "sho
nlnt seen" and the child's father declares that "he nlnt went," unless tho off
spring gets some formal grammar In tho classroom, what Is to prevent tho futuro
generations of that houso going on indefinitely "nlnt seenlng" nnd "nlnt wonting?"
Doubtless much of tho time spent In the spelling-bees and In sing-songing the
multiplication tables of our mothers' tlmo wan wasted. Even In the early days
of my own schooling much store was set by memory feats. At the convent
Where I was first sent to woo tho elusive goddess, Minerva, we hurt oven to
memorize tho gospels a task calculated to make ua stand In speechless awe of
the word of God.
This was, of course, carrying things too far. Tf Dr. Klexner's plans, however.
for tho establishment of a modern school aro put Into effect, they will bo carried
even further. Indeed, life at school will become ono ginnrt sweet song, and a
curriculum such as he outlines will make even a Muntcssori child who has noth
ing to do but develop his own Individuality green with envy.
Tho study of languages shall be taboo In this now Institution of learning,
tho reason given being "they exist only for the purpose of communicating Ideas."
Shocking thing, that! Although there aro some people who do believe that
the most Interesting thing In the world Is tho communication of ideas! Perhaps
Doctor Flexner purposes that after a short term In his school, no pupil shall be
loft with an Idea to communicate. At any late, it would seem thnt the schoolboy's
dream of "no moro Iatln, no more French, no more sitting on u hard wood
bench," Is nearer realization than ever before.
Unite for Suffrage
Is It true that women are reluctant to help their own sex? It has over been
the habit to believe so. but Miss Caroline Kntzensteln tells mo that tho H7 women
In whoso company she Is going to make a trip throughout tho West will have
proved tho contrary by the time they have completed their six weeks' Journey.
These 38 women, ono for each State in which women aro disfranchised, aro
going out to tho coast, stopping at all the large cities on mute and some of the
email ones, for tho express purpose of forming a Woman's Party. As a political
party it will bo unique because its platform will consist of ono single plank hut
a largo and substantial one at that sufliclent to bear the weight of the entire
female population of tho United States.
This plank, of course, you have guessed it. is "SiTfTrage Flrht." The 4,000.000
women who vote In tho West aro to be asked to sink their political preferences
In every election until universal suffrage obtains In the United States. They
may have Democratic leanings, or Socialistic, but If a 'Itepuhttcan or a Pro
gressive declares himself an ally to the Cause, the Democrat or the Socialist Is to
bo passed up.
That precious balance of power, of which we hear so muchiowndays. is hold
by these 4,000,000 vpters. Will they bo big enough, generous enough, to forego
their personal political preferences so that the women of tho East may bo un
shackled at ono fell swoop by Congress? Miss Kntzensteln says that she believes
they will. M'LISS.

Dear M'LIss Would you be so kind as

Into a wide-mouthed bottlo or Jar hull
full of pure ollvo oil.
If many different kinds of flowers aro
used, such as violets, roses, carnations.
Jasmine, honeysuckle, lilacs, the result
wilt be mlllefleurs, or mixed bouquet.
After soaking for about 21 hours, take
out the flowers and oqucezo them through
a horsehair bag. letting the oil run back
Into the Jar or bottle. Throw In more
tlowors and let stand another 24 hours.
Repeat the squeezing process. By this
tlmo the oil should be saturated with the
perfume.
Then add to the perfumed oil an equal
quantity of alcohol pure which should
be shaken up every day for two weeks.
Then the alcohol which has absorbed tho
perfume should be poured off and tho oil
thrown away. You have your perfume.
A. pice and lasting violet odor may bo
obtained by putting a half ounce of orris
root, broken In small pieces. Into a bottlo
with two ounces of alcohol, cork tight
and shake well. After four or flvo days
a few drops will recall tho true violet
scent.
goal Is scored for the opponents; should
It fall on tho opponents' side, they scoro
a goal. Tho players aro not permitted
to rise. They must remain seated and
must hit the balloon with the back of tho
kicking off." that Is. throwing tho ball
up again. Thirteen goals Is game. It Is
n good plan to have a reservo stock of
balloons.

Dear SI'LIss I am Intending to give

quite enough boy friends, and I would
nrattr hnvinir iin cuual number of boys
and girls. Would It be Improper for mo I
to ask an intimaio ooy inenu iu uinw

this friend an Invitation for the boy ho

Pteaeetell, mo samj Interesting games
to play i c- B- c-
You are too young to nssume the re
ponsibliity of Inviting guests. Tho Invita
tion to tho party should como from
your mother, who, should, of course,
know all of the boys and girls who are
bidden. If the boy whom you term as
your "Intimate boy friend," though, of
course you ore much too young to have
such. Is known to your mother and ap
proved of by her, there Is no impropriety
In his bringing his friend to your party.
It would be better though for him to
bring the boy to your house before tho
party, so that you and your mother may
have the opportunity of "looking htm
over," to drop Into the vernacular.
"Knight of the Whistle" Is a funny
ame and should help you greatly In
making your guests feel at ease. Have
every one who knows tho game out of tho

Dip your finger In chloroform and make

half an hour and rinse in clear water. The

chlorinated soda will do the work more
quickly, but they eat Into the fabric Ja
velle water is likewise effective. The

GOOD FORM
Good form queries sho'ild In ad
dressed to Deborah Ititsh, tcritloi on
otic fdc o fTie paper and signed with
full Homo nnd address, though fnfllnls
OXI.Y cill be published upon request.
Tho question of clothes, what to wear
and when, is very often nil Important mat
ter, for dress plays a great part In social
affairs. If a man appeared In the after
noon In a dress suit It would mark him
down nt once as an Ignoramus or a
waiter from some nearby cafe.
A query which has como various times
for my column Is Just on this very sub
ject. A dress suit should never be worn
beforo C o'clock, nnd really tho only time
ono Is worn as early as that Is for n
wedding at that hour, for formal dinners
and dances aro always later.
Tho dress suit Is always worn for a
dance, a tuxedo mny bo worn to the
theatre, but not If thero Is to bo a supper
and dance afterward. Tuxedos aro moro
for stag affairs, when they aro tho cor
rect garments.
Demonstrative in Public
Dear Deborah I'ush Will you tell mo
If it Is good form for engaged persons to
be demonstrate in public? I went to a
reception last week where I saw a lately
engaged pair who were so absorbed In
themselves they did not know how they
wero observed and every one was laugh
ing nt tho way they wero acting.
M. X. V.
It Is very bad form for persons to dem
onstrate their affection iu public.
Dinner for Ten
Dear Deborah Jlush I want to give a
dinner for about 10 men and girls; could
you suggest an lnexpenslo menu? AVo
have a Vlctrola. so would It be all right
to dance after dinner? JACQUEMNIl
An Inexpensive menu might Include:
Hors d'oeuvro of small round of toast
spread with nnchovie paste and garnished
with grateil hard boiled egg.
A clear soup with vermicelli.
I,obster cutlets (which may bo pro
cured from a caterer ami heated at homo
beforo bervlng, cream sauco may also be
bought).
Drolled lamb chops, peas and potato
balls.
Stuffed tomato salad (scoop out the cen
tre of tho tomato after peeling it) inako a
pasto of mayonnaise, cream cheos,
chopped watercrebs, two or thre drops of
onion Juice, and till the centres of the
tomatoes with his mixture. I'lace each to
mato In a bed of lettuce and pour French
dressing over tho whole concoction,
Charlotte rusbo or Ico cream meringues.
Cakes and deml tasse of coffee.
Your Idea of dancing after dinner Is a
very good one.
Stirring of Liquids
i)cor Deborah Uuih Is It good form
to stir liquid one may be taking, such as
soup, coffee, tea. etc., vlgoroukly with n
spoon before eating? 1 have seen a
womau of apparent refinement stir her
coffee with a spoon continually before
drinking It, and It does not seem quite
correct to me. I would like to have your
opinion on the subject. M. V. H
The only tlmo It Is allowable to stir
one's coffee, etc., would bo once or twice,
to mix the sugar nnd cream Into tho
coffee: then tho spoon should bo placed
on tho saucer and not usod again. It Is
excessively bad form to stir lgorously
nnd continuously. Soup should bo eaten
noiselessly from the sldo of tho spoon and
tho spoon should bo tilted away from one
when taking tho soup from the plate.
Mourning: for AIother-in-Law
Dear Drborah Jlush My mother-in-law
died several days ago; Is It necessary for
mo to wear mourning? We were very
dear friends. J. P. Q.
It Is not absolutely necessary to wear
mourning, but It is a mark of respect and
a customary thing to do. If mourning Is
woin it should be kept for at least six
months; veiy many wear It for a year.
Ilouquet nnd Iluffct
Dear Deborah Jtush Will you please
tell mo tho correct way to pronounce tho
word bouquet? I havo heard It pronounced
like beau and boo, and do not know which
Is right Also what does buffet supper
mean and how do you pronounce buffet?
D. McC.
The word bouquet should be pronounced
boo-kny. never bo-hay. Ihiffet Is pro
nounced as It It were spelled boo-fny. A
buffet s,upper or luncheon Is ono which Is
served from the sideboard and main table,
but the guests aio not seated at tables.

dig a trench nt tlio bottom of the row

six-Inch layer of well-rotted manure
should be laid ; on this the top soil dug
out should bo filled In nbout six to eight
moro Inches, first having been thoroughly
pulverized nnd blended with some very
fine manure. Then plant the pens, nbout
ten of tlicm to nn Inch, nnd cover a couplo

keep covering till tho ground level Is
reached. This promotes a deep root
growth nnd Insures plenty of moisture
when the surface of tho garden Is dry.
All vegetables prefer light opon soil.
Some, llko rnbhngo nnd brussols sprouts,
will stand a molster soli than others. In
general It is a safo rulo to have a deeply
prepareil soil for the root crops beets,
turnips, parsnips, carrots, oyster plant
so that the roots may go down easily and
grow without malformations.
Leaf crop, such as lettuce, cos. cab
bage, chard nnd crops with fruit, such
nH tomatoes, beani, eggplants, peppers, do
not need such deep digging, but their
ground should bo thoroughly pulverized
and flno manure Incorporated In It.
Tho vine crops, such as cucumbers,
cantalopos, squash, pumpkins, do best In
hills, bcfoio making which the ground that
Is to be jbeneath should bo spaded some
what to make drainage and releaso nutrl

Ono advantage of proper depth of dig
ging for various types of crops Is that It
nlds In economical cultivation.
The deeply dug crops can be cultivated
deeply. The others must bo cultivated
lightly, as they throw out many surfnee
rootlets, which should not bo cut by sharp
cultivation.
It Is thus easy, by planning In advance,
to adapt one's own tiny plot to tho various
crops wanted. But one must read care
