"If Wc Arc Uneducated," Writes a Girl in Service, 'Why Arc These
Things Trusted to Us?" Women Who Gel Up
at 10 o'Clocli in the Morning
The Roll of Honor
Wo read the list at sunset, when
the sky
Was nil a-stream with splendors
multiform,
llosc-color lit to flame, that still
swept by,
Bright spirits thronging from tho
battle-storm.
Against tho royal purples of the
east, i .
The pride of our great lnournlnE,
fair they glowed,
Our heroes from all ngony released,
Speeding to Honor's beautiful
abode.
Still eager with their youth's un
slaked desire,
Leaping the clouds with feet too
light to fall,
Beneath a many-bannered arch of
flro
Those glories raced like boys to
festival.

IN' A LETTUri which comes from a
girl who signs herself "From One,
Too, Who Is Called a Servant Girl,"
thero Is hidden a shining bit of wis
dom. "It Is held that the servant girl does
not have or need a good education,"
she writes. "It seems strango then
I tIlat lhc, manners of the children are
'left entirely to the servant girl."
In no spirit of complaint this girl
goes on to tell how- It Is she who
dresses the little hoy In tho morning,
ghos him his breakfast, shatpens his
pencil and sends him off to school. It
Is she, too, who goes upstairs then to
tako baby from her bed, give her
breakfast and then put her In her

THE ralslnj of a child Is bis. Impor
tant business. Thero la no other
real way for a woman to do it but to
do It herself.
All llfo stretches out ahead of a little
boy or girl. Mothers loolt to a child's
food to see that ho be physically equip-
I ped to tread this path. They buy
1 warm clothes for him le.it he tako cold
I and Impair bis health. Fathers work
li.tril that nil these things may como
easily. Yet of what use all of this If
mothers do not look to the spiritual
development of their children? By
j spiritual development I mean man
nersnot tho little pretty outward
i courtesies children are taught to prac
tice but the Inward graclousness of
tho soul which cannot help but re
bult In outward graclousness.
GOOD health and beauty and a suffi
ciency of this world's goods do not
equip a child for life, even a bald
materially successful life. Children
must bo drilled In the great scheme
of dealing with the rest of us. How
they aro going to act with their fel
low beings when they grow up will de
pend largely on how they are taught
to act with their little playmates.
Iteal manners are nothing moro
than this. It Is up to mothers to get
up In the morning and get acquaint
ed with their children. If they had
wished to sleep day after day as life
rolled on, then single blossednes
would have been tho kinder choice.
