The problem of "Children and what to do with them" is one for which Mothers Unions and such like organizations Tive and have their beings" Would 1t be qlSSer if there should be a Children's 0iion? It would be for self-protection while the Mothers Union are altruistic. The children have problems to solve, too The following composition on Parents" will give mothers good advice if they will read between the lines. It Is taken from rid Bits and the boys Essay on Par ents" is as follows: Parents are things most boys have to look after them. Most girls also have parents Parents consist of Pas and Mas. Pas talk good deal about what they are going to do but mostly it's Mas that makes you mind. Sometimes it's different, tho. Once there was boy came home from college on vacation. His parents lived on farm. There was work to be done on the farm. Work on the farm has always to be done early in the morning. This boy didn't get up. His sister goes to the stairway and calls:
 willie, 'tis a beautiful morning. Rise and list to the lark"
 The boy didn't say anything. Then Ma calls:
 William. it is time to get up. Your breakfast is growing cold" The boy kept right on, not saying any thing Then his Pa put his head in the | stirway and says he: "Billl'
 Coming, sir!" says the boy. I know a boy that hasn't got any par ents. He goes in swimming whenever he pleases. But I am going to stick to my parents. However. don't tell them so. 'cause they might get it into their heads that couldn't get along without them. Says this boy to me:
 Parents are a nuisance; they aren't what they're cracked up to be-"
 Says I to him:
 Just the same. I find 'em handy to have. Parents have their failings, of course, like all of us, but on the whole I approve of 'em."
 Once a man says to me:
 Bobby, do you love your parents?"
 Well" says I, I'm not a-quarreling with 'em."
