On the Sly An uncommon Incident oc cured last week that demonstrates the force of a flying bird. A quail flew against a large double strength window glass In John Bturdevant'a house with such force as to break the glass and' pass on Into the heuse. The glass would easily have supported a fifty pound weight without breaking. Tha quail was slightly Injured but was able to fly when released. Btaurt Advocate. The latest In showers: Tuesday morning promptly at 6:30, the Maple Leaf girls In rubber boot regalia started for the Peterson home on the hill to shower Miss Myrtle Peterson with hand embroidered linens. Myrtle, not dreaming of the plot was Indulging in a quiet morn- ! Ing sleep and was certainly surprised when ' the girls rushed upstairs and Into her room nnd threw linens so rapidly at her. that she could scarcely get her breath. Such mer- : rlmcnt as was Indulged In the next fifteen or twenty minutes we will not endeavor to . describe. But the sumptuous breakfast. which Mrs. Peterson so hastily prepared, we must mention as being .one of the best we have ever been privileged to partake of. The coffee why some f the strictly temperate girls were guilty of asking for a second cup. After breakfast all were ready to load In the wagon, with which Mr. Pet erson was watting at the gate. A the wagon rolled away the girls sang "Cheer up. Myrtle," but no need, for she was per fectly happy and stood at the gate waving farewell. Ord Qulx. Safe Blower Makes Confession.

FAREWELLS TO FAMILIAR HAUNTS Protest Against Bible Reading- In Pabltc Schools Advantages of Summer Schools Educa tional Notes. This year In the front row of a gallery In ft college chapel, not many miles distant, sat, on commencement morning, three women of distinctly fashionable type, ac companied by ft well-groomed gentleman, a man of club-land and the Inner circle of the elect. A "chlel" sat back of them "takln' notes." Now, faith, he'll prent 'em." It was evidently their first glimpse of a girls' college, and they were distinctly Interested and curious. The guests of ft distinguished trustee, they felt at liberty to comment on the new sights. Their Inter est waa keenest in the graduates. "Why, there are a great many who are actually pretty," said tha one who might have come out of an Edith Wharton story, nodding her blue plumes In special approval of the two fair-haired marshals of the academic procession. "And they walk well. That must be the athletics," commented the man. "Put I wonder If such learned young women ever marry?' murmured the little old lady on the end, adjusting her gold mounted lorgnettes. Others have wondered at that same thing, although why It should excite the general publlo the girl graduate does not see. No less distinguished a visitor to our shores than Matthew Arnold wonderful how a col lege education affected a young woman's "chances." Doubtless many, like pretty Melissa of Tennyson's story, find their Florlan early In life, before the college doors have closed behind them. Others, like Psyche, discover Cyril only through stress and storm, while those who, as Ida did, mistake the meaning of all their hard, earned culture, almost miss the prince through mistaken ideals. gnitarestlve Statistics. To say lust what these girls of 1907 will do Is Impossible, but it Is interesting to take as suggestive the statistics of ft class that this year celebrates its decennial. Ten years ago ft New England college gradu ated a' class 113 strong. Of this number nine have died, forty-three have married, twenty are teaching In secondary schools, three are Instructors In colleges, twelve are living at home, six are In settlement work as an occupation (not as ft pastime), four write, three are artists of some repu tation, two are musicians, and the remain ing eleven have not responded to requests for facts. A record that Is Indicative of the results of college training Is not a slight matter, and this Is fairly typical. On 'the whole the ultimate destiny of which the dowager at the recenf com mencement thought so highly has not been neglected. Almost half the class haw mar. rled. Of the remaining half practically all are filling spheres of usefulness In one field or another. If the girls of this year can show as good a record at their decennial surely the dominant spirit is but a forecast of the future. Sometimes Reaction Telia. While no one would have anything of beauty subtracted from college existence, nor would ha suggest any diminution of the glories and Joys of commencement the reaction that comes afterward In many cases Is a severe strain on the best bal anced character. Even the women's col leges located In cities have about them much that Is beautiful In art and archi tecture. The rooms In which the students live, though simple, are as a rule artistic There are few or none of the vexations, petty bothers of household life. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, appear In due course of time, and untidy rooms are deftly put to rights. It Is hard to exchange the gray ivy-clad quadrangles of Bryn Mnwr, the Berkshlres of Holyoke, the lake of Welles lye and the elm-shaded streets of North ampton for an ugly manufacturing town, a homely little village or a big city with Its dirt and clatter. To live with a riotous family of sturdy small brothers or querulous sisters, with an over-tired mother and an abstracted father, does not tend to that Platonic calm of mind that is essential to scholarly at tainment. Or if outward circumstances are more favorable, if wealth supplies luxuri ous sittings for her culture, it may be that the college bred girl mubt look for ward to ft family out of sympathy with her alms anil half scornful of her enthusiasms, tn short, the first plunge Into home life Is apt to be as startling as an unexpected bath in ice cold water. Before her daugh ter went to college her mother was dis turbed because she did not know French and German; upon her return with the desired modern tongues she is often an noyed at her failure to be Of service in household crises. Cooking and sewing secra then to have gained in relative Importance It is ft bit hard. Heady to Do Their Bbaro. And yet, in spite of drawbacks and dis advantages, these recent graduates are ready to do their share "to lift the woman's fallen divinity upon an even peueBim wiv. man." Just now in the June days, they are pausing ft moment to play before tak ing up the more sertoue business that ts to bo theirs. I'erhaps the baccalaureate sermon may touch upon the theme of work, possibly the commencement orator ts given to discussing problems. What matters Ttt These are happy days, the days of Joyous fulfillment. In the minds of ft small group of graduatea, there will linger always the memory of the final evening of their col lege days. The exercises were over and a quartet of special friends has gathered In the sitting room of the matron of their dormitory for a final chat with the kindly woman who had done so much for them alL What college had meant to each was a natural theme. To one it meam mo chance to earn an Independent living, and pay back tho friends who had helped her through her four years. To another It was merely the beginning of broader study with European travel. To a third it had provided a refuge in future years when the social demands that would invariably come should have wearied her spirit. The fourth, the unconscious humorist of the party, whoso career as a student had been checkered, clutched her diploma and said fervently, "Well, I came to college because father was bound to have one daughter with a degree. Thanks to your united efforts I've got mine, although I never expected It.. Now I'm going home to show It to him and prove that I'm not oulte a fool." If one could be tucked Into a corner of the farewell gatherings, now going on all over the world of college girls, how many humorous, pathetic, splendid, and stirring things he would hear. For after the fes tivity comes separation. New York Post. Edneattonat Notes.

Protest of Jewish Itabbla Against Present Practices. The central conference of American rab bis has Issued from Its New York head quarters a pamphlet, entitled "Why the Bible Should Not Be Read In the Public Schools." It contains an exhaustive Argu ment against the reading of selections from the scriptures to public school children, supported by court decision hearing upon the subject, among them the Bible reading decision of the Nebraska supreme court. "Our public schools belong to the state," say the rabbis. "They are expressions not of denominational but state interest. They were established not by the members of a particular sect to educate their own chil dren, but by the people as a whole, so that all tho children of the land might receive the Instruction that would fit them for cltl censhlp, "These schools are attended by children whose parents have every shade of religi ous belief. They are supported by taxes paid by every member of the community, whatever the character of his creed, even though he disavow any creed, and without regard to the question as to whether or no he has children of school age to take ad vantage of the educational opportunities thus provided. "In one word, thoy are public and not private schools, and, therefore must be con ducted In such a way that all those Inter ested may have equal privileges and receive exactly the same recognition." The rabbis assert further that all versions of the Bible are denominational, and that none of the versions are acceptable to tho Jews. They continue: "Suppose, as Is sometimes the case, the teacher is a Cathollo or a Jecw. The Bible version generally used In our schools Is a Protestant translation. Is this teacer to be compelled to use this version? When In his reading ho come to Interpretations with which he does not agree, shall he Intro duce changes Into the text to make It cor respond with his belief? Is he apt to risk the displeasures of the authorities by readlrg passages which confirm his own position, or will he sacrifice his self-respect by read ing selections which meet the approval of his superiors but tha burden of which belles his own conviction T Has a publlo school system a right thus to embarrass Us teach ers, to subject them in this Indirect way to what is vlrtunlly a religious test, and ,so restrict the freedom of their conscience?" The habbla argue that reading the Bible in the publlo schools usually leads to the Introduction of other religious exercises al together sectarian In character. "As soon as we allow the Bible to be read In our public schools," thoy say, " that moment we open their doors to a host of other re ligious features that, in the end affect their efficiency." They add: i "We properly tax all the citizens of the land for the support of the publlo school. But we have no right to levy such a tax on those against whom tho school In any way discriminates. Catholics, Jews and atheists alike contribute to the common achool fund. But we are In duty bound so to conduct these schools that, .parents will find no logical objection tOuBending their children to them. If we make-, the objection possible, our taxation Is not .onry legally but morally wrong, i "Archbishop Ireland was right when he said, 'If there be ft public Institution fts the state school, supported by all the people, avowedly for the benefit of all the people, let It be such that aU may use it. Be there no taxation without representation In the enjoyments of the benefits thereof.' Fur ther, as Jefferson put it, 'To compel a man to furntBh contributions of money for the propagation of opinions whio he disbelieves Is sinful and tyrannical. "Either, then, we must cease taxing parents who claim that our public school system does not give their religious beliefs any consideration, or we must make our schools absolutely secular. To follow the former course Is frankly to confess that our schools are distinctively sectarian Institu tions. The conclusion is plain." SUMMER SCHOOLS. Educational and Physical Advftfttngcea Firmly Established. When summer schools were started a few years ago It was predicted that they would never be a success, because, as tho attendance would be largely voluntary, it would be ImpoMdble to find pupils willing to give up any of their vacation. The pre dictions, however, have failed, and at pres ent there la not a more popular phase in educational matters than the summer schools. Instead of suffering from a lack of pupils, the registrations are large and there Is plenty of Interest and enthusiasm. This Interest Is not confined to the aca demic grades alone, for tho vacation schools of the younger grades of the pub llo "schools have proved a success every where they have been adopted. In the pub Ac summer sohools the curricula are largely confined to manual training, cooking, sew Ing and the useful arts, and It Is found that the activity of the children which, without restraint, might develop into lawlessness, can be turned happily to useful work. These schools offer to the boys and girls a helpful, steadying Influence that counter acts the influence of the street, where many of them find their, only playground, and they are receiving the heartiest indorse ments of modern and progressive educators. Educstors and parents have been giving I this vacation waste, as it is called, consld ! erable attention the last few years, since j the success of the summer schools has been I assured, and there Is a wide belief that young people who are going to school should no more spend nearly a third of a year in ldlcness than other young people who are learning trades and professions. While It is conceded that growing boys and girls require more rest than their seniors, many do not believe that they re quire the half that Is now allotted to them unless there Is physical weakness. A mod erate degree of study Is advocated by many parents who do not wish to have their children idle so many months, and teachers are often engaged to Instruct them a few hours each day. The plan has met the warm approval of all who have proved Its merits. The popularity of the summer school can be uhown by the large attendance of the summer school at the university, which at- tracts Its hundreds of pupils, many of whom are teachers of the public schools who wish to become more proficient. One of the most noticeable features of the summer schools 1 the opportunity they offer for special studies or work to which time cannot be devoted during the regular school year. To the boys or girls who can not afford to give up many years of their life to school work these schools, which enable them to pursue their studies during the usual vacation period, are real benefac tors. The manual training schools, the art, mimic and the business schools, all offer a summer course, wher tha atudunt can train - . . ' .., ,.,.,,., . v possess. The advocates of summer Schools point with pride to the large number of students who avail themselves of this op portunity every year and the fine results the schools have achieved as a proof that there Is a widespread need of such rhooU. WEJITWOBTH MILITARY ACADKMY Noted Missouri Institution lrerlna for Coming; School l Mr, Work Is progressing rapidly on t'.ie new barracks building of the Wcntwnrth Mili tary academy at Lexington, Mo., and It will undoubtedly be completed by the time school opens in the fall.

All the men engaged have not only taken a high stand In their academic work and have been strongly recommended by their re spective universities, but they are star ath letes as well. The catalogue Is now In press and will soon be ready for mailing. ONE WOMAN'S QUICK EYE It Waa Too Moch for the Dealer at i Monte Carlo and She Wi , Paid to Quit. Nearly every one who has been to Monte Carlo has heard of "Mamma" Vlaud, a little, bent old French woman, a widow, who has played for years. "Mamma" Vlaud played roulette each day from morning until night. Her beady eyes, twitching nervously, sow nothing but the Ivory ball as It fell Into the cell. As they watched her staggering from the gaming tables late at night people pitied her. Her whole soul, her life, seemed ab sorbed In the awful desire of winning. The old woman at times lost heavily for her; then she regained her losses. For. a long time she was enabled to live and continue her feverish pursuit of the game. One night the old woman lost nearly all her store. As she passed from the table despair tn her eyes, her attention was at tracted by another wheel. She. stopped and bent over the table. Again and again the wheel spun around and stopped. The old woman's eyes sparkled. A flush suf fused her pallid cheeks. As she (eft the room she clapped her hands and her laugh a shrill, mocking Chuckle startled the gamesters as omi nous, uncanny. "Better watch the old woman!" one of the official lookouts told a detective. He followed "Mamma" Vlaud to her hotel. He listened outside of her door. There was no alarming sound. In a short while she extinguished her lights, and evidently had retired. The following evening she reappeared in the gaming Hall. Her eyes still spar, kled, her cheeks were still flushed. With her were several notoiius gamesters. They approached a table. "Mamma" Vlaud began to play. She won. The gamblers, who had loaned her money, watched. She played ft sec ond time and won and a third time and won. The gamblers looked on amaxed and aaw the old-woman raking In thou sands of francs. During the evening the old woman sat by the table, playing persistently. Her winnings doubled, trlbled, quadrupled, and piled up about her. The management became alarmed. A consultation was held. Special detec tives were sent to watch her. Scores had gathered about the table, looking on breathlessly at her wonderful run of luck. The detectives reported to the manage ment that "Mamma" Vlaud was play ing a certain combination of numbers that invariably won. One of the directors besought the old woman to desist playing; the bank would be broke, ha declared. She smiled and continued to play. , The director offered her 150,000 to cease playing.
