 He should be less with older persons. should have the companionship of children and learn to share with and yield to them, or he will become ab- normal and unhappy. A child who is not allowed to be with other children is deprived of one of his rights. He can never be the same as if he had associated with children, and his social life will be characterized by friction, un- derstand others.
 An only child may suffer deeply from loneliness, from being misunderstood, from the failure of parents to appre-- ciate his wants. He is in greater need of discriminating attention than of a lavish bestowal of misguided affection. To the child, as to you, actual compan- ionship is more satisfactory.

Infinite Patience Required
 Infinite patience is required in dealing with a child who disregards truth. Never should he be met by astonishment at his faults, or by contradiction, dis trust or unbelief His parents must help him to see how anxiously they wish him to find the true answer and to under stand that truth is. the foundation of morality.

Naturally it is the aim of every thoughtful parent to develop in each child a strong moral character, to instruct him in the virtues of truthfulness, justice, self-control, purity, self-respect, obedience, patience, unselhshness, reverence, kindness.

 Placing the Kitchen
 In a small house it is usually well to have the kitchen near the entrance hall and stairs. In this plan it will be noticed that one can go from the kitchen to the front door without disturbing the family. One can also go down to the laundry in the basement or up to the second story inconspicuously.
 A buffet built into the dining-room is probably one of the most satisfactory investments that can be made. The buf- fet illustrated cost about fifty dollars
 A small kitchen is not only necessary in small house, but is much to be de sired in larger ones. The cool gas range now makes this possible where the coal range required more. room. Planning the Bedrooms
 It is an excellent idea to have one of the bedrooms extra 1arge-as large as two bedrooms-even if 1t becomes neces- sary to reduce the size of all the others. The principal bedroom in this scheme

To FIX THE BOUNDARY
LINE Of TWO STATES
Planning Settlement OF Controversy
With West Virginia.

Attorney General Isaac Lobe Straus
appeared before the United States Su-
preme Court at Washington Monday
and asked for date during the Octo-
Der term of the court when arguments
could be heard in the long pending con
troversy between Maryland and West
Virginia over the real boundary be-
tween the two states at the most west
ern dividing line of Maryland. 1t was
Mr.. Straus first appearance before the
court. He met Senator Isidor Rayner
at the Capitol, and by him was intro
duced to Chief Justice Fuller and other
members of the distinguished tribunal.
Upon formal motion by Mr.. Rayner
Mr.. Straus was admitted to practice
before the court.
Maryland's Attorney General was
clothed with unusual powers. He was
authorized by the Attorney General Of
West Virginia and his associate, Mr..
George E. Price, to ask the Supreme
Court to fix a date for the argument.
Chief Justice Fuller and the associate
justices listened attentively to Mr..
Straus, and assured him that the earli-
est date possible world be named for
the argument
The statement was made by Chief
Justice Fuller that many applications
for arguments of cases during the De-
tober term of the court had been re-
ceived and that the Maryland West
Virginia boundary case would have to
abide its time.
The assurance was given Mr.. Straus,
however, that the argument will be
heard during the October term and
thus will be taken another step in the
settlement of dispute between two
states that has been hanging fire for
over quarter of a century.
The Supreme Court is already in the
possession of voluminous maps and
documents which We're deposited by
Mr.. W. S. Bryan when he was attor-
ney general of Maryland. Mr.. Price,
assistant counsel to the attorney gener-
al of West Virginia, has also filed num-
erous documents and maps. The Mary
land survey was made by State Senator
Brown, of Garrett county, who is an
engineer, and Mr.. Edward H. Sincell

s5NEATH THE DIGNITY OF
MARYLAND'S GOVERNOR
Chief Executive Puts the Force Bill
Into Effect in Frederick County.

Governor Crothers. the Democratic
chief executive of MARYLAND by his
actions with respect to the Republican
primaries conducted last week in Fred
erlck county, by sending to that section
of the state secret service men to spy
upon the methods used by his political
opponents, has lowered himself in the
esteem of many air minded Democrats
and all the Republicans of the State
To say the least the action of the Gov
ernor opens way for criticism of his
action and leaves a questionable doubt
in the minds of every resident of the
state whether or not he was honest in
his intentions of forcing a fair primary
or had descended to the level of the
peanut politician and ward heelers of
Baltimore City.
Republican Chairman John B. Hanna
regards the Governor action as unwar-
ranted and intimates that more will be
heard of it. In an interview published
Tue sday Mr.. Hanna said:
1.-The so-called force bill provided that
Federal Marshals sh ould be sent into
States where there was reason to sup
posethe law would be violated. 1t was VIC
lently opposed and beaten. 1t has long
been held over the heads of the people
of Maryland as a blow at their rights
contemplated by the Republican party.
Our people have always jealousy
guarded their right to manage local af-
fairs and to be judged by their neigh
bors when violations were charged. So
much is this an established principle of
our local government that the governor
is not expected to send troops to quell
disorders until formal requestha been
made by duly authorized peace officers
of the community in which the dstur-
bance is taking place"
They are mistaken in their man,

action is required of me shall act, and

that the laws are faithfully observed.
