HEALTH HINTS.
BY A. J. Booker.

.
Now that the school season Is to
begin. parents ought to lend their
hearty support to the welfare OF their
children. I, is not sufficient to see
that child is not late.
The growing organism requires
well cooked and nourishing food. A
child's needs are fresh air also. But
most important is the moral support
and interest of parents--interest IN
the school management, all the details
and finally If parents have not had or
taken advantage Of opportunities let
the children help you. This Will
strengthen the family ties and bring
aSout q sympathy between children
and parents which is often sadly lack
ing.
Z There is no limit to brain accom-
plishment. Teach your children that
success comes from doing ordinary
things in an extraordinary way. \
Then there is the gentleness, the
correct speech and modulated voice
which are taught at school and often
untaught by carelessness at home
two opposite factors at work.
The mothers Of school children
should be close together for mutual
protection, for studying the problems
Of adolescent life and finally to be
sure that all the works and sacrifice
and hopes are not lost and blasted.
.sThe life is more than food, and
body more than raiment," and whose
ever by love and gentleness brings a
boy or girl safely through the many
eddies of life has done a great thing
This is done by gentleness and love
and the consequent companionship
which these two factors create.
To deny children properly conduct
ed dances and parties or other amuse-
ment of wholesome nature is not
sufficient. If you take away JOY or
an evil you have only done well when
you have supplanted it by greater
or more absorbing attraction. Every
child wants to grow into an influen-
tiaf and cultured person; if they are
given sustained and gentle supervls'
ion their hopes will be attained.
If you be parent or friend you owe
it to yourself, to the past, to the race,
to the future to help make the lives
of the young joyous, grand and good
