deeply seated among the primitive in-

these scatter homeward every year,

The home magazines have recog-

many new plays with instructions for
inexpensive staging.
There -is hardly a normal school or

who has. clesigned a stage setting or

The agricultural colleges are at it.

Of one truth I am cOnvinced: There
Is considerable talent 1 In any small
community, particularly among the
young people. •There is plenty of it
on farms- 'anywhere. '
Hunt out that talent, develop it, let

A Pageant, whether there are to be

need literary folk for that. Every vil-
lage houses certain thoughtful persons,

• In selecting the ground for the pag-
eant keep in mind two important re-
quirements—a fairly 'wide place for
the action, preterably beside a river
or pondaas you may wish to show the
Indians in their canoes, aud somewhat
masked by trees; and room for the
audience to sit. ,
If you can find a natural stage area
beneath a sloping hilledde you are for-
tunate, for then your audience will be
able to look on in comfort from the in-
• cline. • .__
Building a large enough stand for an
audience is expensive business and is
seldom n.ecessalig.

To Observe Sun Spots.

A very small telescope or even an
ordinary field glass .or opera glass,
will afford the reader kview of sun

the instrument at the sun and focus
the eyepiece until a sharp Image of it
disk, several inches -in diameter ,is
projected on a surface,of smooth white
cardboara held at:a distance of from
two to tour feet, • The spots .can eaeily
be distinguibed from seeks on the

with the suns image. At present we
are, just emerging from a ,period of

been seen for weeks at a time. But
