Kerchbraun and Kdward Lytic, both of Omaha, president and treasurer or the Nebraska association, and numerous other delegates from this and other states. Clarence J. Chandler, of Chelsea in calling the convention to order, said that the western or wholesale egg and poultry shippers needed protection. It was a matter of statistics that the butter, egg and poutry business was in volume and importance second to none in the world, and yet those in the business were comparatively unheard of and suffered from wrongs and injustices that could easily be righted if they would exert themselves and demand recognition by organization and co-operation. Efforts to that end had befor been made, but they were now determined to make it and district associations, he said, were woiitv which they cov- loo iui i.

After The Times went to press yes--tereJay afternon. Dr. Pratt gave a talk on "Child Study." She said: It doesn't pay to hurt a child's feelings, no matter what h- has clone. Grown-up people are not so sensitive, but we might enumerate hundreds of who are physic al recks from mental trouble. A lit tle-'hui that seems hardly worth noticing seems terrible to a child.

We hear a great 'deal of breaking down among students. There is really lit! I'? breaking down from over study. The-y break clown through the sympathetic nervous sysbtn induced by worry. Without emotional st the hiid a ri could learn a sssor, ah no length. We-should keep in mind how.

muc more little folks are affec ied than older ones. Don't b-t the pirit of rivalry so held sway as to so affect the- -rvous system of the children. We sometimes get out of patience with the little ntit-s who will not fix for a long time on any thing. It is a blessed thing that the-y are thus protected, otherwise we should forget that the-y are so delicately constru led and shouhj wear them out entirely. Tle-ir very volatility is the be 1 tiling for them and for us.

Dr. Holbrook continued his disioiirs1 on "Pedagogy." which was as amusing and instruc tive as on former occasions. He said that great men sometimes study bugs and achieve' great glory, and if this he true, let us giv. applaus" and acclamation' tc" the men 'and women who give up their lives to study. There Is more to be learned than lias ever been dreamed.

How'many of us are urround'-d by a rich detritus of culture, an alluvial soil where everything is overflowing with refinement. But there- are those who live- on barren' soil who hav- to struggle against repression and el-privation. The very ch-privation is often a source of future greatness the obstacles.
