Miss Mary Johnstone Waring, who 
has been studying with Dr. Montes- 
sori for the last year, under the au- 
spices of the American Montessori 
committee, will return to America on 
the Canopic early in June, to become 
the director of a House of Childhood 
on the North Shore, at Gloucester. 
The school has been arranged under 
the patronage and management of 
Mrs. Isaac Patch, Mrs. Woodbury, 
Mrs. Burnham and other prominent 
and influential women of this section. 
Miss Waring has the distinction of 
being the first member of her class— 
the first regular workers under Dr. 
Montessori, herself—to be engaged 
to organize and direct a Montessori 
school in America. Her experience 
and success as a kindergarten teacher 
for many years fits her for this new 
method. Miss Dole, the daughter of 
Mr. Nathan Haskell Dole, will be Miss 
Waring’s first assistant and student. 
Miss Waring is the sister of Mrs. 
Rober Noble Burnham of Boston and ~ 
Magnolia. 
One disturbing feature of the ton- 
silitis epidemic in Canton and vicinity 
is the sharp difference between the 
local health authorities and the state 
board of health. Between the two 
the handling of the disease was so 
bungled that 16 deaths have resulted. 
The Canton health board charges the 
state board with failure to help, and 
the state board alleges that the local 
board did not do its duty. There was 
grave fault somewhere in permitting 
a disease which has been readily hand- 
led in other places to become a deadly 
menace in Canton. It is manifest that 
there is an unusual amount of criti- 
cism of the state board of health to 
be found just now throughout Massa- 
chusetts. 
What do we want freedom for? 
That we may have the best that life 
can give us, unshackled by tyrannies 
of custom, fashion or prejudice. And 
how can we lead a right life unless 
we learn its laws and render them 
faithful obedience? Profoundly wise 
is the prayer which addresses God as 
He “whose service is perfect free- 
dom.”

We have outlived the fallacy as to . 
the indefinite improvability of the 
mind, but there is still much linger- 
ing superstition as to possible better- 
ments of character. It is as idle to 
say “‘Be a St. Paul” as to say “Be 
an Aristotle.” 
A calculating engine is one of the 
most intricate forms of mechanism; a 
telegraph key one of the simplest. 
But compare their value.
