SUPPORT ASKED FOB CHILD WORK Kindergarten College Asks for Assistance of Public. CHICAGO, Jan. 2. Throughout 1923, from the time she toddles her first step, little Miss New Year, as typical of the Business of Childhood, will be under the solicitous, sympathetic and scientific eye of 2,000 alumnae, teachers and mothers of little children who have been graduated from the National Kindergarten and Elementary College. Declaring that “as goes the child, so goes civilization,” these 2,000 alumnae mothers and teachers in every State jin the country, together with many ! other women friends of children interested in their proper development during their most impressionable years up to eleven, announced. New Year’s day, the opening of a campaign to erect a national college of childhood iat Evanston, near Chicago, where 1 they were graduated from the Na- ; tional Kindergarten and Elementary Oolege after courses designed to perj feet them in all the art of motheri craft. Although many of the graduates of the National Kindergarten and Elementary’ College are teachers In kindergartens and elementary schools, j dependent upon their salaries, or j young mothers, they have pledged i from their small incomes and means of delivering th • appeal for a better ' childhood to all those interested, as they describe it in better things. According to their announcements, “there never has been a time in the history of America or of the world when the demand for a better education of the little child was so insistent as at present.” It is also pointed out that there never has been a greater demand for properly trained teachers of little children and mothers who have a sympathetic underselling of child nature. The adoption of compulsory kindergarten laws in various States, and the growing recognition of the need for revolution in e’ementary education which will eliminate the silence and rigidity of the old hickory stick type of instruction for children, has caused, it is asserted, a widespread demand for teachers who have been trained to a sympathetic understanding of the natures of prospective citizens. In their guidance of Miss New Year 1923, typifying the business of childhood, the alumna© teachers and mothers throughout the country, appealing for support of the national college of cliilul >od, describe tliemsplves as the “active partners” in the business of childhood, and are appealpealing for volunteer “silent partners” to assist them 5n their aims.

A dog house is not usually considered desir.ble sleeping quarters, even for a boy, natural pal of dogs. But if the dog house is newlybuilt, and if the boy has been wandering about the streets, lost, for a long time—oh, perhaps as long as half an hour—the dog house makes a most desirable resting place.

When the lad got out of the car to return home, he lost his way. He wandered about for a time, and finally ended his wanderings in a dog house in the yard of F. M. Hoffman, 1523 Central Ave. There he slept. Early in the morning, a rooster Hoffman had bought to occupy the place of honor at his New Year’s dinner table, began to crow. Hoffman determined to put the fowl in the dark doghouse, to stop its crowing. Going out, he saw William’s feet protruding from the doghouse. He pulled out the sleepy and bewildered lad and listened to his story. Then he took William into the house, warmed him up, fed him and telephoned the police to take him home. j CARELESS FURNACE MAN GETS POLICE ATTENTION Lights in Neighbor’s Basement Lead Woman to Suspect Thieves.
