It is. hard to know which attitude is more lacking in intelligence. While it is fine for people to be loyal to their home surroundings, the entertaining of prejudices between sections and countries works against unity and co-operation. Probably much of ihé ill feeling manifested against American tourists in Europe, is due to the tendency of many of those tourists to speak con- temptuously of those countries. They are not slow to express the idea that those famous old cities are far behind the times, and a good old home town in the U. S. A. is infinitely better. Thet may be true, and yet it is as ill mannered for tourists to let it be known that they think so, as it would be to be entertained in someone’s home and spend your time in ridiculing their furniture and habii The same principle applies when people travel in our own country. Jt is a fine thing to boost their own home localities and speak warmly of their advantages. But when they give the impression that they look with contempt on the localities they are visiting, they convey the idea that the regions where they come from are producing uncultivated | people. The gracious traveller who distributes smiles and compliments, and praises the localities which he sees for whatever virtues they: have, and is silent about their faults, if fine advertising for ihe local- ity from which he came. People say they would like to see the city or state ihat produces such good examples of culture. THE STUDY OF NATURE Mrs. Coolidge, it is said, while staying in the Adirondacks, is taking a great deal of pleasure in studying trees, wild flowers, butierflies and birds. When the first lady of the land does something it is apt to become popular. Perhaps we shall now see a revival of nature study. About a couple of decades ago, nature study was a fad. Many classes were formed for this kind of inquiry, and innumerable pecple began. to equip themselves with flower books; bird books, tree books, etc. dt was a common sight to sce people with opera glasses trying to identify the personality of that little warbler that'.sang. so lustily in the tree-tops, and with their magnifying glasses examining the structure of the rare flower that they had capiured in their rambles. These people gathered valuable. ipformation, and they became more observant. Many persons who previously had been dreamy and scarcely con- scious of the werld about them, formed the habit of keeping their eyes open, which is extreeTy use- 7 were praciici sults.
