The document was prepared for the
American Public Health association

GETTING EVEN WITH MAMMA
In This Case, child's Punishment Ger
tainIy Failed to Have Sau-
tary Effect. -

A little girl had been SO, very
naughty that her mother found it
necessary to shut her up in dark
closet-in that family the direst
punishment for the worst offense.
For Is minutes the door had been
locked without sound coming from
behind it. Not whimper, not snif1e.
At last the stern but anxious parent
unlocked the closet door and peered
into the darkness. She could see
nothing.
What are you doing in there?" she
cried.
And then a little voice piped from
the blackness:
Il thpit on your new dress and I
thpit on your new hat, and I'm wait
ing for more thpit to come to thpit

ChiIdIike Ignorance.

Laura Jean Libbey, discussing In
Brooklyn her successful appearance
on the stage, said:
Il talk in my monologne about love
marriage and the other interests OF
the heart. On these subjects women,
especially young women, are strangely
ignorant.
"They really make me think, you
know, of the little girl who was asked
by her teacher:
"'What can you tell us about Solo
mon?'
Solomon replied the little girl,

"'And how, my dear said the teach
er, do you make that out?'
Because answered the little girl,

pines.'"
