The sdhool training of children is being given more thought and atten tion today than ever before. A dis tinct effort is bein made to fit our boys and girls for intelligent citizen ship and for the work of life to greater degree than has yet been at tained. These studies that will de velop individuality, strength of char acter and human sympathy are now considered important in the school education of children. One of the most effective aids in this work is a comprehensive, practical, concrete course of nature study, a course based not on books, but on the phe nomena of nature: a course that is correlated with language, literature, physiology and geography. The purpose of nature study should be to utilize, extend and de velop the pupil's interests; to de velop the ability and habit of recog nizing the problems which nature presents, and to learn how to solve Sunday, Fab. 22 at 4 P.

The child who early learns interesting facts about nature the life history of plants and ani mals, the marvels of air and water, the making of soil from the solid rock cannot fail to be interested in nature's ways. Every fact is valu able to him, both as information and as incentive to further study.

As a woman who is soon to vote I would like to know if our state government as operating under the governor's code bill which I under stand was passed ty the last legis lature. If so, is it proving to be a good measure? The legislature of 1919 passed the code bill, permitting the governor to appoint secretaries of finance, labor, trade, commerce, agriculture, public welfare and public works. The law is now in operation. A1 referendum petition was filed against the bill, but was held invalid, by the court. The case was appealed and is now before the supreme court. , The code bill is designed to bring about a more efficient business ad ministration of the - state's affairs, through the consolidation of exist ing bureaus and -commissions, the lopping off of unnecessary agencies, the prevention of duplication or overlapping functions, and finally by providing a budget system tor the apportionment of funds. It has not yet been in operation in Nebraska long enough to determine its full value and usefulness, but the basic idea is sound.' V Mrs. Charles T.

An international conference of teachers' organizations of the allied and associated nations will be held at Cleveland, O., February 24-29, un der the auspices of the National Education Association r o the United States. In its announcement the association says: "We believe that the public schools of all the great democracies of the world can, through co-opera-tvie effort, do much to conserve and promote the great ideals for which the war was fought and won. We hold, indeed, that a distinct respon sibility rests upon the teachers of the allied and associated nations to fulfill on a broader plane than ever before their great function as trus tees of the human heritageto see to it that what has been gained at so great and So terrible a cost is sedulously safeguarded and transmit ted without loss and wtihout taint to each new generation. "So important is this problem and so great are the possibilities, of in ternational co-operation in effecting its solution, that the National Edu cation association has urged the creation of an international bureau of education in the league of na tions. As a step toward the estab lishment of such a bureau, and as the nucleus of , an. international as sociation of teachers, it is desirable that an international conference of the teachers' associations of the free nations- be held at an -.early date. Representatives of the Teachers' Federation of France have rer quested that the National Education Association of the United States take the initiative in calling this con ference." I Mrs. Otis M. Smith, who has been visiting her daughter, Izetta, at Ferry Hall, Lake Forest, 111., re turned home Friday.

No More Free Than the Ripple to Rise and Leave - the Sea." x By BEATRICE FAIRFAX" Wobbly. Dear Miss Fairfax, Oitiaha Bee: I am In need of good advice. I am 18 years old and 1 am going: to huve a birthday soon 'and my boy frlond will listen to nothing but gettlnir me a diamond. -Should I take it? lie is away now for a few days. There Is to be a dance tonight, but I am not going-, but would It be proper to no with another boy Feb ruary 5, because there is going to be one then and 1 promised him T would ko then, but if you don't think it Is right I can break my engagement? i Will it be too milch to ask you to put this in The Sunday Bee? l'KOOIE PARIS. It seems to me you are pretty wobbly in the matter of your affec tions. To accept a diamond ring from a young man would Imply an engagement 'and unless you love him sincerely and expect to marry him (which your letter Indicates you do not), then do not obligate your selfand deceive him by taking his ring. The very fact that you want to run off to a dance with some other boy shows that you are ncrt capable of loving deeply and truly at your age. Go with different boys if you like, but don't, pretend to pledge yourself to one unless1 you mean to live up to that pledge. Masked Ball. ' Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: We are two sisters, 18 and 17 years old. Now, there will be a mask ball here and we would like to mask for something nice. We would like you to give us some advice, as we want to mask together. Thanking you in advance, I would like to see my letter in print as soon as possible. We remain. SUNSHINE AND ROSES. Living in a small town as you do, it is not as easy to get a costume for a masked ball as it would be in a city where you could rent an out fit for an evening. So you will have to depend on something which can be devised. Ghost costumes made up of sheets and conical-shaped pasteboard hats make one look, very tall and are in that respect a good disguise. If you could get hold of a college cap and gown, you could wear a black mask with it and repre sent night. Gold and -silver moon and stars cut from paper would be pasted yor stitched on the black gown, and if you don't have a cap, wear a crown made of gold or sil very, carrying also a wand. A Prfscilla make-up is easy , and at tractive. Wear a pretty light dress, simply made, with a fichu such as the colonial dames wore. A wig would help out A colonial costume is very picturesque. Wear an old fashioned dress and poWder your hair, or wear a wig If your mother has an old-fashioned dress, you could devise a beautiful masked costume from this. A country girl is usually found at masked balls. For this you would wear a big apron entirely cov ering you, with sunbonnet on head and mask over eyes. You can easily conceal your identity with this character. If it is lust a en-la' nartv. clown suit, like the' Yama Yama girls wore, would be a pleasing choice. Inquisitive. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: We are two girls of 14 and 15 years of age. Should we expect dates for dances with boys? Many of the girls go without Is it proper? When boys escort you home should they leave you at the end of the sidewalk leading from the house or take you to the steps? JJyZSTXZ Tyer why is it wrong? Is it proper to change rings with boys? ' v What is your opinion of a girl who lies In order to break up a " 1 . Do not make the mistake' of think ing that cocoa is only an occasional drink. It is so valuable a food beverage, so rich in the elements of nutrition, so deli A w '.Mll.il iff couple so as to get the boy hlerself? As we are m earnest, please an swer as soon as possible. Sincerely. INQTJISITIVJE8. f ou are too young to go with boyt with or without datea in advance. Boys who escort young ladles bom should take them to the door of tb home. If a boy puts his arm arouni you and you don't object to that, he will go further. And the more llbw tela he takes without your protest the more difficult It will be to atop him when you wish to. There Is no particular wrong in exchanging rings . with boys except that probably your mind is full of silly thoughts instead of sensible ones. A lie is wrong, (m especially one which harms others. Your entire letter shows that your thoughts are on the boy question. You are too young for that. Go to school and try to learn something which will help make you fin wo men Instead of empty-headed little things with only a list of silly ex periences to fortify you for the great ness of life. Too Young to Love. 1 ' Misji Fairfax: I have read youi advice to others and now I came to you with my troubles. I was intro duced to a young man some time ago and I liked him the first time I saw him and I found out through others tbat he also cares for m. Once, shortly after we were ac quainted, he aRked to take me home, but I refused for a very good reason and ever since he has acted kind of peeved. We are both 17 years of age. Do you think we are too young to go together? I have called up this young" man several times upon hearing that he was ill. He talked real nice to me over the phone, but he never calls me up. How can I regain his friendship? Do you think I should ask him frankly if be is mad because I didn't let htm take me home? Or should I let him go? I don't love him, because I think we're too young to think of lov. Don't you think .so? I just class him as a good friend and like htm.v I liked him as soon as I saw him. Hoping you will print this. , WORRIED, Your letter sounds sensible and I believe your own good judgment trill be your best friend and guide. I think ' you know that it is not be coming or advisable for a girl to make an obvious effort to attract ft young man. True friendship! are splendid, and the ordinary Interest which they inspire ought not to be criticized. You are too young to think seriously-of love. It is quits natural you should like soms boys . better than others, but keep your own self res'pecf and you are sdrs to gain the respect of the young man and perhaps his interest. Overcome With Her Looks. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha .Bee: I am a girl of 17 and . am considered very good ' looking for my age. I attract all the young men , and they are always call ing me up to makes dates with me, and calling on me, and I am bothered very much. I guess I am too pretty to be left alone. I would like for you to tell me how I can get the young men not to bother me so much. Thanking you for your, ad vice, I am, BLUE EYES. '. You seem to be overcome with your own looks. ' No one is as pretty as you think you are. And no on who, is not beautiful in mind cn long attract with only beauty of the face. Don't be concerned about the vast number of young men you jst tract, for-unless you develop sonie sense along with your looks, you won t attract them long. And, too. Paps the young men who call you can 1 set dates wlth nl0re B,n' sible girls. Dolly Explain to your mother that you are not happy without girl friends of your own age. If she ' were to know that you desire 'the companionship of school friends. I am-sure she would not be unreason-' able. f Tjeona You are too young ito have beaux. Be good friends With 1 the boys, but do not be sentimental. The marriage of cousins Is not per mitted here. Wear your hair in, a soft knot at the nape of the neck. Black Eyes Why not send flo' ers to the young man? Puffs are not usually becoming. Dress the -hair simply and it will look far pret tier. Valentines are remembrances, such as are Christmas s,hd Easter cards. There is no longer much sen tlment -connected with the sending of a valentine. - , Anxious Write to the city clerk I where you were bom. It is prob able that the date of your birth jls1 registered there. Lonely Kate Try to cultivate a happy disposition, be cheerful, .and always be kind. Your writing is average. Write to the county su perintendent concerning require ments for teach ing, there. Since! know nothing of the young man I can not judge his actions. It is not necessary to give a wedding present in this instance. Do not "flirt" over the phone with strange young men. A. D. In regard to fhe location of summer camps for girls In Colo. rado, I suggest that you write to the " secretary of the Y. W. C. A. at Dem ' -vcr, who, no doubt, will be able-t answer all your questions. j XaUille These are the addresses you request: Sessue Hayakawa, Ha worth Pictures, Bruntpn Studio, iLoa Angefes, Cal.; Antonio Moreno, LfA.
