The Critical Years
Between the ages of fifteen and twenty
a boy needs close attention. Very sound
wisdom is needed by father in in1part-
ing to his son the important things that
govern his physical and moral life. It
is a fathers serious duty to warn him
against dangers and temptations and to
save him from brooding, morbid
thoughts. Although it is unwise to look
upon adolescence as a difficult problem,
provided a boy has been carefully
trained, it is true that with it comes a
great change, moral, mental and physical.
Character, tastes, temperament are III a
variable condition
Parents often fail to recognize the
needs and perils of these critical years,
yet the very foundations of morality
character and health, the very founda-
tons of domestic and social life, depend
on the proper direction of boy at this
time. There is no standing still. A
boy must either advance or deteriorate

a boy understands neither the world nor
himself. Life becomes intense, absorb
ing. Egotism is dominant trait; boy
often resents advice, chafes under dis
cipline, longs for independence. He is
elated, with overlooking spirits, or swag-
gering ways. Then he reacts, and may
be lazy, indifferent, dull morbid and de-
pressed. He is awkward, clumsy, over
grown; no longer child, but not yet
man.
Much depends on his associations
now. Good companions may do him
great good; bad companions may do him
great harm. He is self-conhdent or self
dlstrustful, serious or gay impulsive but
very thoughtful. He is inquisitive and
may be unreliable and troublesome, but
he IS never so easily influenced by indi-
rect and tactful control The test OF
| fathers talent is to be able to deal with
him in the right way.
At this time boy may be inspired with
high feelings, noble impulses, manly vir-
tues. The best training teaches moral
responsibility, the sacredness of man
hood, the duty of self-government. 1t
develops an earnest attitude toward the
most important questions of human life.

A boy wants to be respected, con-
suited; wants to be considered an intel
ligent individual, who can share views
and discuss things sensibly. He wants to
listen to the practical wisdom that ex-
perience gives.
Learning the A B of Living
A careful father will caution his son
TO be temperate always; advise him in
regard to smoking, and tell him that it is
not manly to use profane or bad Ian
guage.
A boy should learn that plain food,
early rising; thorough bathing are essen
tial to healthful living.
Plenty of physical exercise and full
occupation of time are needed in the
teens" Sports and athletics are useful
in supplying an outlet for energy, besides
giving bodily strength and developing the
mental and moral qualities-self-contro
judgment, prudence, obedience and lead
ership. Loyalty and honor toward a
group, or team" are fostered in COM
petitive games. Although no great moral
worth is realized at the time, these pur-
suits unconsciously help growth of chat

HOUSEHOLD HELPFUL HINTS

If the rug is frayed and ragged at the

Provision for Flowers
Flowers are so universally appreciated
nowadays, it seems wise to make some
architectural provision for them. This

and lined eight inches deep with galvan-
lied iron. One stands at the front steps,
and one forms the porch rail
The latter, shaded most of the day by
the overhanging porch roof, has proven
an excellent place for ferns. The gal
vanized iron receptacle for the earth
should never be more than six inches or
eight inches deep, and round hole in
the center of the bottom should be pro-
vided to drain off the excess of mois-
