WHEN TO SEND CHILDREN TO

Some people wait so long before
sending their children to Europe that
tile little ones are bumilated by others
who have already been there. Every
self-respecting parent will be careful
not to subject his children to this
evident injustice; at the same time all
unseemly hurry is to beHavoided.
Some people argue that as soon as
a child can walk we'll and speak few
necessary French words, he should be
placed in stateroom, next to a pri-
vate bath, and sent to Paris. Others
feel that he must naturally lose much
at this age. and that the proper time
is between five and six. when-as an
American-he has reached his ma
