FRED LONG MAKES PLEDGE NOT TO SMOKE CIGARETTES, OR READ DIME

NOVELS.

NO CIGARETTES FOR HIM

Miss Southw'-ck, Teacher cf RoomF Much Pleased With Action of Her Pupil, and is Sure Great Good Will Come From It.

202 SOUTH MICHIGAN STREET PLYMOUTH, :-: INDIANA

When Miss Southwick, teacher ot

Room F, 4th grade scholars, in the

city schools, heard the talk of Capt.

Jack Crawford at the Presbyterian

church Tuesday evening, she was impressed that certain of her boys, who are of the age when their minds are pliable, would be benefitted by a talk by the old army scout, and arranged through the. intervention of Mr. George II. Thayer, to have him come and speak a few minutes to them Wednesday morning before his train to go away from the city. Miss Southwick' sought to have her boys take an interest in the reformatory work of Capt. Jack, telling ' them that he was a man capable of doing things not common whh one of his age, because he had always been an abstainer from the use of liquor and tobacco, and that hi training as a soldier would lead him to notice a proper bearing on the part of the boys in every way seeking to impress them with the lessons that the lecturer would give them. After listening to Capt. Jack attentively, some of them wished to talk the sub ject over, but were restrained for the tiite. However, since the first of the present year, Miss Southwick has noticed a marked improvement in certain of her boys, and has had special reason to notice one boy, Fred Long by name. He seemed to

have an earnestness and sense ot responsibility above the average for his age, and had attracted her attention in a marked degree. Some time after Capt. Jack had gone, this boy approached his teacher, and

aked to be allowed to go to Capt.

Jack, as he wished to make a prom

ise to him. The consent of Mr. Mc

Dowell, the Superintendent, was

gained, and the boy found Capt.

Jack at Leonard's Furniture store.

Mr. Crawford says that he was writing at the desk when the boy approached, and turned and askd what he wanted. The lad replied that he had heard the talk at the school house, and wanted to make a promise to him never to smoke cigarettes, use intoxicants, or read dime novels. So Capt. Jack wrote out the following: "This is to certify That Fred Long came to me at this store, hiving heard me at the school house half an hour ago, and said, Capt. Jack, I want to make a promise to you, that I will never sTroke a cigarette, read a dime novel or drink anything that would intoxicate. Clod bless the dear boy, and help him to keep his pledge. J. W. Crawford, (Capt. Jack.) I certify that this is true, and I will keep my promise. Fred Long." Nov. 22, 1911, 10:30 a. m. Mr. Crawford said that. he intended writing a poem which he would dedicate to Fred Long, and have it

placed in the front of one of his books of poems, sign it, and present the book to the bov.

how the work looked so it was done, has become one of the best in the grade, not by compulsion, but by being given to see the contrast. She made an apron, and the stitches were to Miss Southwick 's eye, perfect, but in some way it had become soiled, and had to be washed to be presentable. This is against the usual order, as articles are passed on for grades as much for neatness as

for perfect stitches, and this gir! was not satisfied, but got new goods, and made a new apron, taking care to keep it unsoiled this time. This incident serves to show the principle that is being born in the girls the desin? to do work that is creditable in the highest degree. This is a branch of what is cnll-

How manyi of the citizens of Plymouth comprehend the value of the work being done by the teachers in our schools to fit the boys and girls for life a few years hence? It was our good fortune to visit Miss Southwick. teacher of Room F. of the Washington school, and learn a little of the work she has to do. Besides having the care of her room, she -has charge of the sewing work that is given the girls of several grades. She says people would be surprised to see the little dresses, aprons, and the fancy work, that is

done by even small girls.lt is not all

plav-work, but the goods are bought, and serviceable clothing for little children are made. The work is hand ed when finished, and graded the same as any study work. Neatness is urged, not by scolding and driving, but the effort is made to instill into the mind of each child that perfect work is the desired end. At times when a girl becomes careless, or shows a disposition to slight her work, the teacher sita down and does some on the article, explaining that the work should look like what she makes, and Miss Southwick says that often without being told the pupil will voluntarily take her work out and do it over. One girl who was disposed to think that it made little difference
