Surroundings of Early Childhood Mould Character, Says Mrs. McRae.

CHILDREN NEED CARE.

PURDUE UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR DEALS WITH THE TREATMENT THAT SHOULD BE ACCORDED, IN VERY INTERESTING LECTURE

Inheritance is a stronger trait of children than any influence that may be brought upon their lives. So declared Mrs. Mont McKae of Purdue university in an address before a large crowd of women and girls at the high school auditorium. Mrs. McRae's theme dealt principally with the result of environment on the early life of a child and declared this will be found exerting the greatest influence in future years. She advised the exercise of care on the part of children in dealing with children. Some children require different kinds of attention and the punishment inflicted upon a child of one disposition will have other than the intended effect, if applied to a child of different demeanor. The speaker undertook to show how greatly a child is in need of tender care and parental love. The heart of the child was asserted to be in need of little joys and pleasures and it breaks beneath heavy suffering or sorrow. She called attention to the life of George Elliott, who wept a tireat portion of her time, when a young girl. The effect of sorrow upon the life of a child was said to be reflected throughout its life. The years a child js forced to spend in misery and suffering never can be obliterated from memory by the joys of subsequent years.

ALASKAN INDIANS HAVE WHITE PLAGUE Shocking Disclosures Made As to the Life and Condition of People.

Seattle, March 21. Shocking conditions among the Indians of Alaska are reported. No country in the world shows such a high percentage of death from tuberculosis. Even worse than the deplorable physical condition of the natives is their moral degraduation. The institution of marriage is apparently unknown to the natives, or if known, is not practiced to any extent. The Alaskan Indian has no Idea of contagious diseases and takes no precaution to prevent their spread to his families or his neighbors. On account of the squalor, and filth in which they live, it is a wonder that any of them have survived.

DEWEY LOSES NUMBER. Revised Scheme of Signals and Tactics is Now in Force. Washington, D. C, March 21. -Admiral Dewey ha3 lost his -signal number. He is no longer "No. 1," in the naval register, but instead is known by the cabalistec letters "E. A. B. CV Likewise, Rear Admiral Evans, commanding the Atlantic fleet, will no longer be indicated by the signal "No. 2." but he will be known as "E. A. B. D." These changes are the result of the adoption of combinations of letters instead of figures to indicate the personality of officers in the revised scheme of tactics and signals just adopted. Under the old system an officer's signal number was subject to change at any moment, as the result of retirements, deaths and promotions, whereas, he will now retain his letter symbol for life.
