Pegans, because, even day, the peasants still hold thunder in , awe; still believe, almost.unconseiolle- Iy that the gad of storm is on their side. In one of the skirmishes fought latea la against Zellgowski forty Lithuani- ans defeatea two hundred Poles. Not bedause the 'Poles are not great fight - are, but it -wasa night of frightful Beam; the thunder rolled, its mighty eatillery through the aewering skiest, and the Pole.s luiew that the "pagans" theeLithuanians, would 'fight like Ie - nods with their god to help them. So they ran. , 'It's like a Graustark story, the story of this youngest of the worlde repub- lics! An ancient people, whose begin- nings are lost in the midst of time. Always known as a free and ,demo- cratic people. Governed a old by the gamed dukes, but governed as a liber- tyiloving people, proud and soldierly. And then, back in the middle of the faurteenth century, one of the grand dukes married a Polish princess. And Paland claimed Lithuania' for the son self the match. Great fighting 'ensued, but the Lithuanians were outnumber- ed a hundred to one, and Poland an- nexed them. Unquehchable Spirit. Five hundred years ago! Five hun- dred yearsof oppression and slavery —five hundred years during -which Po- land .first, then Russia, sought to strangle their national being, extin- guish their language, break their spirit; fi-v.e hundred yea -es during which each Lithuanian mother taught her children in secret the beloved tongue; taught them to read insmug- gled and hidden book,s the great stories of their past; -Whispered to them: "Some perhaps, our freedom may cbme again.

Lithe- . area,: between_ the two autocracies,' Russia and Germany, 'lay helpless. Soldiers overran her, her men were taken into the Russian Arpaies, her people were impoverished. And then Bessie fell sprawling. Instantly all over -Lithuania the na- tional spirit fabled to life.

' The Long -Awaited Day. It was in Septernlea, 1917, that Lithuania formed a provisional go -v-• ernnaent, appointing a council s known as the Taryba, with Smetona ,attthe head, to get tliecountry into shape for popular rule. In February of the follo-wing year came the declaration of independence., In April, 192O; the preliminaries being CoMpleted, a gen- eral election was held to choose Presi- dent and Assembly, to confirm the con- stitution, to come-before:the world as a free country. And that efectien was' the greatest day Lithuania had ever known! It wasthe day that had been await- . ed "for 500 years. And 95 per cent. of. the people turned out to 'cast their vote. , • t„ All the time, while the government was being fanned and the nation uniting, war was going on. - The Ger- mans had fled, but the Boasheviki had come. And after the BoIshevike the Poles. Lithuania had no supplies, but guns and rifles she did have, ea:glared from the Gernaaes, bought by money sent in by Lithuanians in other parts of thesworld.

To their credit be it said that the sohool trustees are rapidly earning to realize the importance ef this branch oa pre- ventive medicine, and 'meetings of these officials have been held recent- ly ,in various rural .districts, with ,a asew to obtaining eaediealeana, nurs- ing inspection throughout the schools of 'their townships. As educational work is what is needed at the eutset, a nurse will first of all spend some time in each, the- tridt where medical • inspection e•f scirols iato be inaugurated. She will get acquainted with the trustees, members' of the Woinen's Institute, loeal doctors, newspaaer • riroprietor, clergy and prominent citizens general- ly, and °ratline the work that is plan- ned: Certainly the compara-tive healthiness of the country, with pure air and facilities for enjoying the genet . out -Of -door amid naturel. sur- roundings, does not make the need for continual inspection and supervisiou as pressing as in the city. However, a systematic setherne for 'Medical in- spection arid nursing of school chil- dren is very necessary, even in court - try districts -far' removed from any great centre of population. Ailmenta found among city -bred children are also prevalent to an even greater de- gree in rural_ schools, owing to, the lack of skilled attention., • These ail- ments include: defective vision, de- fective hearing, defective teeth defe.d- tive nasal breathing, hypertrophied or diseased tensils, defeeti-ve nutrition, heart disease, lung troubles, nervous diseases, orthopedic defects, skin and soalp conditions. Of all these; defects taken tbgether, medical and nursing attention. has corrected about eixty per cent., and a large per cent. of the remainder could have -been corrected before they became chronic, had the children be- fore ,school ,age been under the super- vision of the Division of Maternal and Child Welfare. Think• of what an ira- niense blessing.. 'such . a combined scheme, will be.when.properly organ- ized! Pre -natal Clinics instructing the mother tes.diet and deal with danger_ sign* ,even before the birth of• the child; clinics to look after both mother and 'theachild at birth • and help the. mother With advice and co-: operation in bringing up the'..beby through the critical fiest years of life; then school inspection followed later by a medical inspection of young -boys and girls preparing to enter indus- tons to come. supervision from the cradle to young, manhood. andearomanhood, A neceseary adjunct to medical in- spection of schoole is the dental disa pensary, the importance of Which la becoming increasingly evident Just how many of the more. con -anon ail - areas, of childhoote and youth can be directly or indirectly traced 'to defec- tive teeth it would be difficult are yet to estimate, but inyesiga,tion along this line is proceeding. It is certain, however, that nutri- tional and digestive defects as Well as serious secondary disease in other parts of the body, are in a great many cases the result of decayed. teeth. Ob - 'servers state that dental caries (tooth decay) is present in Progressive stages in the mouths a ninety-five per cent. of our children. Good teeth as a rule bring about good digestion, and this in turn develops goad health. But good health is net long maintained if the child is not.supplied with nour- ishing food in adequate amounts. In this, connection the Department of Education in some, countries like Eng- land, provides meals- for school chile dren,, and recover tlie cost from the parset, where poesible. Where this provision is made at the schools, the teachere oftenea.ssist in the cooking, and the elder girls are also encouraged to do so; the latter thus reeeive some a the instruction in simple cooking which, is sot necessaey. On first 'thoughts It would seem there would lea little need for these measures in a land ef plenty, each as Canada. But it has been felled in the rural. districts especially that many ef the ehildren coming some distance to school bringcoldImams and eat them under 'somewhat unhygienic sur - moldings. To obviate this, the On- tario Department of Edueation in many districts prevides hot lunches at the mid-day receasaand saperirises the children while eating: Not only do the youngsters tiles get the benefit of hot, well -cooked food during aehool hours, but they are early taught the advantages 'of hygienic principles at the table, and: these youthful impres- sions very, often remain through life.

A tame smarrel, kept as a house pet and allowed liberty from iLs cage, will, if supplied with nuts, bury them in the most curious places. It will hide them in 'people's pockets or even inside their collars. t„ It is evident that, in a state of na- ture, squirrels are not abbe to keep track of many of the nuts they bury in odd spots. Thanks to this fact, they are quite useful' in helping to seed burnedor logged areas in some parts of the countay. . • Thes fact has been particularly nicited in the States of Oregon land Washington, where chipmunks are giving important Assistance 'in the buSiness of re-establishing forests of the Douglas fir. They collect the seeds from the fir cones, and many -of those they bury and forget produce1 young trees. Mice do much good work of the same kind. Should Make Up His Mind.

It is from the father the boy should get his 'first 'lessons in good humor, sportsmanship, • generosity, good fel- lowship,, perseverande, industry—in- deed, in all the qualities that should eventually enable him,to bear himself as he should in the rough-and-tumble of life.

Those may be ,fostered in school, by teachers and by association with other boys; but there is _no in- fluence so patent in nourishing them In shaping the boy's character as that of the father who makes a friend of his son. Paternity implies nearly always some measure ef affection, but it does not alwa.es imply some measure of friendship. There are many fathers in tbse World who have a kinder and more tender feeling for their boys when they are away from them than when they see them. The nervous, irritable father whose high-spirited son is a source of annoyance rather than of pleasure, the overworked father who cables, home too tired to have any zest for play, .the preoccupied father who cannot: isheke off his problems sand troubles, the self-indulgent father who regards his home as a sanctuary for hiMself and wants only to be let alone with his newspaper, his magazine and his pipe—none of them is by way of 'cultivating hie boy's friendship. None of them is meeting in the proper spirit the responsibilities of parenthood— evens though they may all be taking proper measures foraahe health and schooling of their children.. Friendship requires a • certain amount of effort, a certain amount of self-sacrifice, yielding frequently your own de-sires,tothose of the -person that you befiend. The father Who reads aloud to his boys and dismisses with them the aeoks that they read, who helps them with their lessons, who teaches them the -use of tools, the ,names of trees and flowers and birds, who makes holidays and Sun- days an occasion for giving pleasure to theni rather than for seeking it for himself, serves not only his sons but his country. Yap Money. , The island of Yap•is noted, arnong other things, for having the most ex- traordinary currency in the world. Besides the ordinary shell money there is at Stone coinage, consisting of calcite or limestone disks that vary from six inches to twelve feet in diam- eter. The larger stones, which are rather tokens than money, are piled up emend the chief's treasure hoe's° and seldom change hands tn the trans- actions in which they figure, though the ownership changes. One huge fee or stone coin, was lost in 'a sterm, while being ferried from one place to another, but is still regarded as valid money and has, been used many times as a 'medium of arade, although it lies at the bottom of the sea, Evidently there is something to be learned froni Yap.

Once a mother has used I3aby'e Own Tablets for her little ones she would use nothing else. The Tablets give such sestets that the mother has noth- ing buaavorde of praise and tlianitful- Dalai for them.

I would urge every other inotbier to keep a box of the Tablets 11 the house."

When we use the word success, we too often mean a fortune, But the bet- ter kind of wealth iis not the wealth of dollars, houses, lands and vested in- terest es It is the wealth of a good name and the essential quality in man • or. woman that makes auch a name and stands behind it. Some who maintain a very respect- able,character in the community think they are better than others who fell, wheia the truth is that they were never similarly tempted. They were cush- ioned on all sides against a shock. They were sheltered from the tempest others had to face. - It takes extremes—either of adyeri sity or of prosperity—to bring out the real character. We find certain men who have inherited preposterously large sums of money going all to sipieces morally, "drunk.. with "eight of power," failing to realize their stew- ardship. Quite as bad as to be prodi- gal is to be niggardly. In fact, the picture of a dissolute rake flinging his money away is rather more attractive than the view of a mean old miser sitting on top of a pile of rasionee and loving it to death. Character is not to be simulated. Now and again one encounters the man who thinks he can go to the stores and buy the makings of a gentleman. The swagger outfit of ex- ternals will not do—it remains obvi- ously an outfit, merely tb.e external raiment, entirely separable from the substance and the spirit of a, man. How amazing is the difference be- tween two that are fashioned original- ly in God's image and of ths same clay! One breathes benignity and the other is malign. One istspiritual, the other is of the earth earthly. One has only conimonplace ideas and a torpid , , . imagination, the other abounds le bright and delicate fancies and a quick and humorous sympathy, so that the association is a pleasure all too brief a.nd rare. To keep a character worthy of one's own respect implies self-control. Nor will the respect of others be won if we have reason to despise ourselves. One ostrich egg will make an omelet sufficient for thiity people. The first explorer to cross the Can- adian Rot:kiss was Alexander Mac- kenzie.
