EVENING CHAT
BY RUTa CAMERoN.

"Oh friend. never strike sail to a
feari He has not learned the
lesson of life who does not every day
surmount a fear. Emerson
Can you imagine a mother who de-
lioerately handicaps child by encour-
aging habits which were sure to lead
to some physical defect.
OF course not. And yet how often
you come into contact with cases in
which mothers have handicapped their
children by encouraging habits of
mind which led to mental defects.
I am thinking especially just now of
the child who is afraid of thunder
storms.
In nine cases out of ten when
child is unreasonably terrified by
thunderstorm it is the mothers fault.
Sometimes she is to blame because
she has deliberately encouraged the
child by letting him see that he can
hold the center of attention whenever
there is a thunderstorm if he will yield
completely to his fear, and by talking
suffers during thunderstorms and
about his high strung and nervous
temperament
More often she is to blame because
she does nothing or not nearly enough
to overcome the child's fear.
Most children are naturally terri
fled by heavy crashes of thunder and
vivid lightning.
But there are two ways of treating
that terror.
One is to sympathize with it and
make much of it and increase it by all
the power of suggestion.
The other is to pass it off as lightly
as possible and interest the child in
other things or even in the beautiful
impressive aspect of the storm itself
I was with a very wise mother the
other day during a terrific thunder
storm. 1t was the biggest storm her
The Topeka state journal., 1911-09-11

little 4-year-old daughter had ever
witnessed and of course at first she
was inclined to be much frightened.
Instead of yielding to, and sympathiz-
ing with this terror, the mother drew
her little girls attention to the great
beauty of the lightning, got her to
watch for especially magnificent zig
zags, told her the dear old folk story
OF Hendrix Hudson rolling his great
balls IN the mountains, explained to
her how little real reason for fear
there was and soon had her interested
and comforted
The child will doubtless grow up
without the needless discomfort of ter
ror every time the sky darkens as if
Aor 4 thunderstorm.
l am convinced that there are a
very few people-and 1 mean very
lew and it's a thousand to one you are
not one of them-who are so full of
electricity that a thunderstorm does
affect them physically
They can not wholly overcome their
terror.
Furthermore there is a certain
amount of absolutely reasonable
alarm, natural fear of being struck
when a Thunderstorm is close at hand
That you can not blame anyone for
feeling although 1 think that ito reck-
on danger too seriously, to hearken too
intently for the threat that runs
through all the winning music of the
world to hold back the hand from
the rose because of the thorn and from
life because of death.'' is to lose half
the worth of living.
But aside from these two conditions
L think that fear of a thunderstorm
is something to be very much ashamed
OF and that the mother who does not
do everything in her power to help
her child overcome it, or better still
keep him from acquiring it, is doing
a very wrong thing.

POSSIBLE SPLIT
OF FOURTH WARD
SOME TALK OF HAVING CUES
TIoN or DIVISION or THE
FOURTH WARD OF THE CITY
MADE DURING THE NEXT CITY
ELECTION.

If the sentiment or q number Of the
prominent citizens Of the Fourth ward
of the city Is carried out. there Will
be division Of that ward next spring.
There is now some talk OF putting up
the question OF the division of the
ward at the next city election for the
vote Of the people.
The Fourth ward is now the largest
In the city, with the Fifth ward. the
only other one that can anywhere
nearly compare with 1t, according TO
the population. 1t has been figured
that with the division of the Fourth
ward, the two new wards thus cre-
ated, would be larger than the Sec
ond ward and as large as either the
First or sixth wards OF the city.
The men who are behind the move
ment for a division OF the Fourth
ward claim that the citizens Of that
ward have not fair representation
In the city council. They are con-
templating asking for more represen-
tation in the city council. and to that
end, will seek division In the ward.
1t liz now estimated that there are
over 1000 people living In the Third
ward, which means that one alder
man represents about 3.O0O people.
Under the present system of the city
government there Is almost one alder
man Tor every 1000 persons in the
city and the Fourth warders want to
be placed In what they think would
be 4 fair ratio of representation.
