A mother has attempted to answer this question affirmatively Her home happiness has gone on the She is heart-broken because her daughter is threatening to run away I had been a mean mother or a selfish writes this worried woman could understand being treated this shameful way she adds have always been the most sacrificing earnest parent daughter has come first at all times I have even washed dishes so she could have nice hands I have worked out so she could have good clothes when I try to reason with her and tell her she just cannot do things that other girls do in her crowd she almost insults me Not by what she says but by the wav she acts She looks at me as if I were a bit demented She treats me like some frail shaky old person who has to be considered but not obeyed What would you do? I am Anxious Mother THAT LITTLE GREEN VASE THE policy of directing youth is as obsolete as a last short-skirted gown A young person would never amount to a hill of beans if he or she were always adhering to a program Besides the theory is psychologically unsound Perhaps remember the story printed some time ago In this column Related by anVlderly man It ran something like this: mother left us at home one afternoon and told us to play quietly Wnd canefully in the house left many things about which we might have tampered with and perhaps destroyed the only thing we must NOT touch was the little green vase on the mantelpiece was a bit of old bric-a-brac that we children never even noticed ordinarily "Maybe it been touched by any of us ever So far as I know we shown a single bit of interest in it not even enough to ask jwhat it was used for or where it came fronv said our devoted mother you do touch that vase on the mantelpiece You might break It she disappeared down the pathway she was still calling to us to keep away from the little green vase "Well of course as you may have guessed ere this that little green Vase was the chief object uppermost In our minds BACK TO GREEN VASE TTtE PLAYED at this and that We-walked all over the bouse and occupied ourselves with all sorts of games But always unconsciously we came back to the high mantelpiece and the little green vase! To make a sad story short we finally pulled It down off the place it had stood for years unmolested the time mother came home a piece had been chipped out of it "Nothing else in the house had been hurt We had done no other mischief HAD to get down that vase because us identity and importance had been so definitely and indelibly marked into our minds with determined PERHAPS this little story may answer the worried mother who finds herself trying to live through the awakening she is now experiencing She her life into a pattern which she herself has created not the business of older people to make models that are as like the original as two peas in a pod Teach your child to value the truth above diamonds to be known as a youth honorable in play and instil into his or her heart self-discipline and kindness Then you can pretty nearly let the youngster blaze his own trail toward the rainbow of happiness One other thing: Give him a chance to pattern uncon -spicuously by a worthwhile example!

During the present epidemic of infantile paralysis I want to pass on this advice to mot her a I compel my children to gargle their throats several times a day with an antiseptic solution I also spray the nasal passages as nearly all germs enter the system through those passages It is at all times a safeguard to health to follow thl method and make It a daily habit regardless of epidemics DIFFICULT CASE The health department has at present a serious situation to cope with and I feel that the general public should do Hielr biL One also cannot impress too often on minds that they should have clean hands at aJi times when conveying food to the mouth and if it be fruit that It be washed clean before eating same I have seen mothers on several occasions buy ice cream cones and take a bite herself then pass It on to several more children then on to the innocent baby This sickens me and I had fought myself on several occasions when I wanted to give my opinion to a mother in an event of this kind

picnic held recently in South Park was great financial success still looking for a house that can be used for headquarters for the good cheer work OLIVE IfM HE world takes us at our own value of ourselves And the child who always steps back and allows the others to elbow him out of place will react to his own behavior and keep sliding down the scale of his self esteem and eventually the esteem of others In time he will be convinced that was born to take back seat in the world He will obsequiously kowtow to children who are hi Inferiors in mental and character make-up Hany little well-bred children brought up to consider the feelings of other before themselves sidestep to allow some ruthless companion to shove himself into place I have seen so many In fact that I have come to the conclusion that one of the first things children should be taught Is th genjle art of standing up for themselves The golden rule is admirable It is one of the first moral lessons a baby should learn Certainly kindness consideration underlie all the ness and hobleness in human character But the creed I speak of need one lota with generosity It deals more with a fine sense of Justice and in showing a child that he ha a much right to the consideration of hi own right sometimes as others have MISPLACED HONORS One time a boy got up a little summer club for hiking swimming and other things that boys love to do Instantly hi buddy conceived the Idea of organization and made himself president The first boy did most of the work The second boy got all the honor and things The first boy loyal to a fault allowed his friend the honors As he explained it to his parents smart and he can do things I But hi parent knew better Little girl are particularly qulok at this sort of thing aunt took five little girls on a picnic in her car The glory reflected on Mary for a while as she was Instrumental in getting it up Her mother put up the lunch provided robes and swimming suits ani what-not for the comfort When the time came to get Into the waiting car Mary expected the seat of honor beside her aunt But there was Julia already ensconced Mary stayed In back with the others ROBERTS OARTON NCA Sntvict me Julia pointed out the places she had been to all along the road Julia knew this and knew- that Julia did this and that and ther other thing It was party Well-bred Mary never said a word But her aunt was not stupid That night she remarked fb mother "Y'ou have taught Mary every way to make other people happy but left her out high time you were giving her a lesson in spunk and standing up for The old saw goes "Th'ere is a time and a place for I shall add that spunk is one of them Spunk mean selfishness It is merely asserting real right at a fitting tirpe A little word of warning here may be anti-climax but I think essential It is a mistake to try to teach very little children to stand up for themselves by allowing older children or more spirited children to abuse them and then stand by and urge the baby to This only causes resentment and feeds the rage emotion which should be avoided Spunk should spring from a natural pride and a sense of right and not from anger I think the secret of teaching spunk is to increase the feeling of self-respect and decrease his fatal Inferiority complex Soroptimist Touring World a past president of the Soroptimist club of Los Angeles is
