Busiest Place in Town.

A young army was in harness last
night down at the Fruit Growers as
ISOLATION. There were no less than
seventy five people actively at work
assisting in loading the cars that
were to carry the product of the Grand
valley to market. The cars were
laden with the finest froit ever grown
in the valley and its distribution to
cities far and near should advertise
the Grand valley more successfully
than it ever has been before.
General Manager John f. Moore,
was head over heels in business and
he was being ably assisted by the as
sistant manager of the association.
Frank Davis. Together they made a
team hard to beat as they directed the
managers of the various departments
in their work.
There were IA cars of fruit loaded
out last night by the Fruit Grow ers
association. Eight of these cars were
sent directly from this city and two
from Palisades and two from Clifton.
The cars would have a most respect
able train load, SO that it can really and
truhtfully be said that the fruit of
the Grand valley was being sent out
by the train load.

 Then again. how many parents can
 truthfully say that they enter sincere ly into the childish ambitions and pleas

 her house than Tommy's efforts to carve
 a boat out of piece of firewood. And
 if he persists in littering the place, she is apt to swoop down angrily on the lit
 tie chap and thoughtlessly fling his
 rubbish away. She tells him that she cannot be bothered with his curious and perplexing questions, and cautions him about worring his father when the latter comes home from work.
 Such mother doubtless thinks she is acting rightly toward her boy, and
 teaching him the lesson of tidiness and obedience. As a matter of fact. she Is oply stunting his aspirations. child
 has a right to expect that its parents will enter into its little pursuits and pleasures. If children are curious, en- | courage them, and tell them all you Ir tnIr If you check them, they will take their questions to some one else, who may not answer them as you would wish. Have patience with them when they do not seem to comprehend quickly, and bring your views down to a level with theirs. Things are new to them yet; | they have not been acquainted with things for years as you have, and they | naturally desire to know and learn as
 much about them as possible.
 Don't repress your children's spirits. l They have right to indulge in joy ousness, innocent fun, and frolic. Young people must have fun and re- laxation If they do not find 1t in their own homes they will seek for 1t else where. Once a home Is regarded as the only place in which to eat. drink. and sleep your children will seek their pleasures elsewhere, and perhaps in dangerous places.
 To publicly rebuke a child or dis cuss it's bad habits and propensities Is to trample on sensitive feelings and cause much pain. Children are mor-
 bidly sensitive as to their shortcomings. To tell visitors that Harry bites his nails" or "Jane is so awkward" will
 only serve to make Harry more nervous of his bad habit. and Jane more shy and awkward as the years roll on. Your punishment should be sacred
 between you and your child. It is a cruel mother who tortures the culprit by telling the world at large about them. Tn these instances put yourself in the child's place.
