lie, and in doing this, dear, the beauty,
and sweetness and purity of girlish
ideas and dreams must not be tar
nished. To tell you the truth, would
not care to see Molhe with either Har-
ny Symone or Bill Tenney. Neither
would care to have her in the COM
pany in which they are welcome"
81 can't understand, Margie, why
you have it in for those two men.
They are not bad fellows"
Eyes, / know that, according to the
man-made code, both Bill Tenney and
Harry Symone have done nothing
very terrible. Tenney has only made,
his wife miserable for years and ruin
ed the regulations Of good many
girls by shewering attentions on
them, know Bill Tenney would not
steal, and both he and Harry Symone
would protect any woman from every
man but himself"
"To tell the truth, Margie, can't
see where Harry has been so awful"
AS Dick said this I shuddered, for
saw the awful POSSIBILITIES of his doing
the same thing if the occasion arose.
You. must remember that the
young woman who is the mother Of
Harry Symone's' children could never
have hoped to have lived in comfort
and refinement with which Harry
surrounded her in any other way. In
stead of making her lose her seIf-re-
spect and the respect of those about
her he raised it. She was known as a
very respectable wife whose husband
was a travelling man, and her life, al
though it ended early, was happier
because Harry had entered into it."

After Mollie went to bed on the.
sofa in our sitting room, Dick, for the
first time in his life, seemed to under
stand that both he and owed some
responsibility to her, and he was furi-
GUS with his mother for not paying
more attention to her.
''Your mother, Dick, takes the
wrong angle always. She finds fault
with Mollie for the simplest little out
bursts of youth and she seems to feel
that the girl should have the mature
Judgment of woman of forty.
"The thing that MoIlie did was just
a girlish escapade; nothing very
wrong about it. The whole trouble
was in the fact that she was allowed
to go her own sweet way, with nd adj
vice on the subject. 1t is as perfectly
natural for girls to want to see and
do things as it for boys, and I am
sure, Dick, dear, that you did not al
ways tell your mother and father the
whole truth about your piccadiIlos.
Now human nature is quite as ram
pant in the female sex as in the male,
and the only way to teach a girl to
do the right thing is to treat her like
a human being show her where she
is wrong in her ideas Of life.
You. can't command and expect to |
be obeyed just because you have said
it. This is something found out |
early in my notwithstanding career

reason the sooner you will be able to |
make them see the right thing to do |
and the right way to do it. P"
''Well, my DEAR" said Dick. 81
guess you and / will have to look aft
er MoIlie more in the future"
I'VE won't need to look after her,
Dick. Mollie will very properly resent |
that. A girl of nineteen is old enough
to look after herself. What we must |
do is to be friends with her-show /

TENNIS MATCH OPENS 1914
 INTERNATIONAL SPORTS

With the professional court tennis champion of Great Britain piEted against the amateur cham pion of the United States in match for the open chaInpio ionshfp of the world, scheduled for Pfala- deIp1aia next week, the 1914 inter- national sporting program will have an suspicious inauguraa. The contest on the courts, the first of its kind ever staged i'm America, will serve as the curtain-rafser for what promises to be a year Of memorable contests between the sportsnen and athletes of John Bull and Uncle Sam.
 As matters stand, the America cup is still on this side of the pond, but Sir Thomas Ldpton's Shamrock ". promises to be g. formidable challenger. Three de- lenders arc now building, and the best will be pitted against Ldp- toms boat. The HarmsWOrth Cup for power boats is held by the British, who retained 1t last year with the Maple Leaf w., and the contest for this trophy will in consequence be held in British waters. The victory of the Meadow Brook Polo Club over the , British stars in 1918 has not been accepted as final by the English men, and they are preparing to send over a foEmidable team. Ox- ford University has agreed to send over four fast milers to compete in the Pennsy reIaw games, and this will give an international flavor to the great meet on Frank lin field.
 The Davis Cup, the blue rib- bon of the tennis game, was won last year by an American trio, but the Australians, have a team that may be hard nut for the defenders to crack. The sensa- tiOnal feat of Francis OuiHnet, the boy amateur, is defeating Great Britain's best professsOnal on the links, has aroused British. golfers to a determination to wipe out the stain of defeat.
 Otdnnet and other Americans will compete in the British anna teur tournaments this year, and and several prominent British s.pros'' will take part in the American open championship. Golf hosaors of the fair sex belong to an EsngIishwonnan, Miss Gladys Ravenscroft, who may defend her title this year. Jack SoutaP, an American, Captured the Tacquets title from England last year. The international balloon race for the Gordon Bennett Cup will be held this year in America, Yankee ball. looms having finished first and second in the 1913 race starting from Paris.

People intefested in the improve ment of Connecticut waterways will meet next month at New Haven to form an association. in response to the following general invitation, which is being sent out
 Everywhere greater attention is be- ing paid to the need and advantages of water transportation. The rail- roads of this country are notorfously unable to handle freight with reason able dispatch at reasonable cost. This applies to the thickIy populated sec tions of the East and especially to the New England states.
 The people of the West and South have been developing their water ways for years with the aid of liberal appropriations by congress, while we Of New England have been indiffer- ent upon the subject.
 Millions have been spent by the government in creating waterways in the West and South because the mem bers of congress from those sections have persistently pressed their claims. Connecticut has neglected to profit by their example. It's rivers have. re- mained unimproYed, its harbors have received but slight attention, although the state occupies a strategic position on the Atlantic coast line.
