SPANNING AND WHIPPING
''Obseryer" Believes Whipping the
Child Fails of its Purpose.
(By Observer

(By Observer
Because l know you would pay
no attention to it, and because
feel pretty sure your editor would
think | was over-stepping my
bounds, am not going to say you
must not whip your child-but I
am going to discuss this all-impor-
tant subject with you. 1t is brought
to my mind by an unmerciful 'beat-
ing l know local child to have
suffered this week-and because
presume there are many kids"
who have been logged within the
last few days | am hoping no par
itcular parent will think l am writ
ing for his own benefit, for l am
not. The subject of controlling
children is as old as the world it.
self-and as far from solution now
as at the beginning. l shall ask,
too, that you do not place me as an
"old maid" or bachelor, who,
having no children of their own,
know best how to raise them. :"
l have the same problems that con-
front every father and mother who
reads this article. And, being as
wholly helpless in the matter as
you. | will have re-published an
article that was sent to another
paper and let you draw your own
conclusions, as l have done.
The author of the article in ques-
ton denounces the practice as bar
barcus and quotes the story of the
parent, who, after whipping his
son, asked, Now, do you know why
l whipped you?' YES" answered
the boy, because you are bigger
than / am
Spanking and whipping chill
dren,' the writer continued, dim
inishes whenever they began to
have mind of their own. Their
offenses are often more disobed,e
more deliberate, more serious, and
more agravating than when they
were younger and larger children
are more responsible as individuals,
but parents almost invariably are
able to control themselves when
their children reach an age over
twelve or fourteen years.
THE parent who is preoccupied,
tired, or worried is not in a condi-
ton to be wrong and when in such
condition should not use the birch
or even scold too harshly. Often,
though to save time or prevent any
argument, cowardly blows are
struck. Slapping, spanking or
whipping children cannot be defend
ed, and it is time the subjects were
discussed from pulpit, press and
school. Children cannot defend
themselves, and those parents,
teachers and others with high
standard of conduct should speak
and write in strong terms, con-
demning such punishment"
l hope, now, you will get some
benefit from the above. 1t does
not tell US how to get around this
ever present obstacle, but it does
have a warning against a quick tenn
per. We might at least give gen
tie persuasion good long trial
Perhaps you already have tried per-
suasion and failed. But has the
rod brought any better results? In
my own experience it has not, and
I do not believe a real punishment
has ever remained in the mind of
my progeuies as long as a sensible,
talk.

SHIPS CANAL SPEED FIXED
[By Latest NALL

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Rules and
regulations for the operation and navi-
cation of the Panama canal are pro-
vided in an executive order just is,
sued. These are framed upon the reg
ulations in force in the Suez canal
and the 500, though there are new
features made necessary by peculiar
local conditions. One is the limita-
ton to six knots an hour imposed
upon the speed of vessels in the Gu
Zebra cut, and it is required that in
approaching turns vessels shall main
tain the lowest speed that will keep
their headway.
In Gatun lake, however, in the thou.
sand foot channels the speed may be
as high as Is knots, in the 800 foot
channels IL knots and in the 500 foot
channels 10 knots. Everywhere else
in the waterway, in Miraffores lake
and locks and in the entrances to the
ports the six knot rule prevails.
Greatest precautions are to be
adopted in the passage Of vessels con-
tanning quantities of high explosives
or infiammable cargoes to guard
against damage to any OF the canal
locks or other vessels.
