Annoyed by Neighbor's Children

''rhere is subject I should like dis cussed when it is convenient. l think it will be of general interest Why will mothers permit their children to make pests of themselves, having neither regard or feeling for the rights of others? I have two children, a girl, D. and a boy 1 year old. respectively. l cannot allow my little girl out in our large shady yard unless am with her all the time for fear the boys next door and the gang (their own language, they run with will throw stones at her or use language that is not fit for her to hear. It is the same with Ideal place for her to play in the morn- Ing, but as soon as she appears they come and sit on the steps and throw stones and yell at people passing by, mak- Ing signs, and sticking out their tongues.
 T tried to get these same children in terested in stories and play that would raise the standard of their manners but my time is limited for such work, and | receive no help or cooperation from the parents, I have learned that I am re- sardeu as stuck up by the parents This l deny. l do feel the deep responsibility Of these little souls that God has sent to nle, ana l must do everything in my power to bring them up to be useful in their manhood and womanhood To my mind this means teaching them to honor their Maker, obedience, truthfuness. and a high regard for the rights and prop erty Of others. l believe in allowing a child to have freedom, so long as that Freedom does not clash with the rights Of other people. I should like to know how other mothers feel, and if my ex perience is unusual or simply a common one In the meantime, our house is for sale, because I cannot allow my children to live in such an environment while their characters are falling
 MRS. G. T. L."
 l cannot bring myself to exclude this letter as too long for our limited space. My heart burns within me in refleeting how true is the picture of. the modern method of training up children in the way they should not go. l should like to publish a symposium of letters from mothers who have similar Cor differeno Views upon subject of vital importance to the home, the community, and the world. For one day the corner will be open for the discussion if mothers will speak plainly and briefly of their theory and practice in child training. should human plants grow as they will. trusting to the influence of later life to form them alright, or what is the imperative duty or parents to their offspring?

An automobile tire should wear OUT
and not blow out. When an otherwise
good casing must be discarded be-
cause OF blowouts Il means that the
fabric is not as durable as II should be.
The fact that inner liners increase the
usefulness of tire means that the
fabric foundation is not as strong as
II should be.
