Learn 10 swim.

The law does not require anyone to
learn to swim, neither does 1t force
people who are not swimmers to risk
their lives on the water. But as long
as there are rivers, lakes and seas on
this earth, people will continue to
avail themselves of the pleasures they
offer. Therefore, common sense re-
quires that every man, woman and
child who goes on the water or who
ever expect to go on the water should
learn the art of swimming, at least to
degree where they could. in case of
necessity. keep themselves afioat for a
short period, says an exchange
Inability to swim is suicidal in many
cases; sometimes it is even murder
GUS. What of the man, Who. being un-
able to swim, grabs hold of a swim
mer and drags the latter down to a
watery grave? Did not the inability
of the first man result in the murder
of the swimmer
But, leaving out the consideration
every law but the first law of nature,
does not desire for self-preservation
demand of everyone the ability to
swim? 1t does unless one is sure that
he will never get near enough to deep
water to make swimming necessary to
save his life. Even then he may fall
into we'll.
If people would only learn to at
least keep themselves afoat in the
water for few minutes, thousands
upon thousands of lives would be saw
ed every year.

To Lecture Here on "The
Engineer and the Public y

There is a movement among the
engineering societies of the country to
work together for the advancement of
the engineering profession by giving
to the public information on engi-
neering matters and men so that the
public will realize how essential the
engineer Is to the life and happiness
of the people. There is hardly any
phase of ordinary existence in which
an engineer does not contribute his
brains and ability, even though the
public has not realized these facts.
There is also a great deal of misin-
formation given to the public regard
ing engineering achievements. Many
presumably scientific articles have
been given to the newspapers and
magazines regarding great engineering
works that have been not only mis-
leading but often containing state
ments that were far from true.
A new idea among the engineering
societies is to see that the public gets
correct and scientific information on
such matters and presented to them
in such form that they will UNDER
stand and appreciate the facts. One of
the foremost societies in the country

STA Three-Piece Skirt,
~ 20 81 waist.

The yoke skirt is to be much worn
ingly smart and exceedingly graceful.
Women who are thinking about their
autumn sewing will find the model most
satisfactory one for many uses. 1t tan
be cut either from wool material or from
silk, it takes very becoming lines and the
pattern with its new features means that
making is a greatly simplihed matter.
You can cut along the outside of the
pattern without allowing seams and
you can mark the perfect basting
line. There are only the side
seams Of the skirt to be sewed
up. The front edges are turned under
and hemmed. The yoke is quite separate
and is finished at front and at lower edges
and arranged over the skirt, then webbing
is arranged under the upper edge of the
skirt to hold it comfortably and firmly
in place. AS the skirt is in full length,
it can be used without the yoke If the
long lines are found more becoming; or,
if the yoke is used and less bulk is wanted,
the material beneath can be cut away. In
the picture, broadcloth is finished with
simple, stitched edges.
For the medium size will be needed 5
yds. of material II in. wide, AS yds. SO
or a.; the width at the lower edge is 5
yds. and in.
The pattern No. S774 is cut in sizes
from "a to 81 inches waist measure. 1t

Parents and the Child

BY Virginia Terhunc Van De Water
Copyright, 1915. by Star Company
A sentence from one of the books
by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps has been
much quoted. In describing the af-
fairs of a married couple she says:
''All went well until the baby came. l
have observed that all usually does go
we'll until the first baby comes"
When the story containing this
paragraph appeared the opinion 1t
expressed was widely discussed. Abb
surd!" sentimentalists exclaimed.
Are not children a link to unite
parents more closely than before? If
a man loves his wife he will love her
better as the mother of his children"
Surely" said other sentimentalists,
''the woman will love her husband
better when she cares for his chill
dren. When she looks at them, she
will think of their father. It is evil
dent Elizabeth Stuart Phelps knows
nothing about the matter. Her state
ment is entirely false"
But was 1t false? While acknowl-
edging that there Is some truth in
what sentimentalists say, can we deny
that children are too often the causes
of discussions and dissensions between
parents?
In the first place, the little ones de-
mand much time that was once be-
slowed upon the husband, or, at least,
claimed by him. Moreover, the man
and woman have different ideas of
how children should be trained. The
father is sometimes too strict; the
mother is often too lenient. There are
also homes in which this rule is re-
versed, and the wife is the disciplin-
arian while the husband is over-indul-
gent.
Every child is better for a combina-
ton of influences. He needs the
watchful tenderness of the mother
and the knowledge that she always
understands him. But he also re-
quires firm masculine hand on the
reins of government. l say this is
what he needs. 1t is not always
what he gets. I suppose, as fathers
and mothers are only frail human be-
inss like the rest of mankind, they
must make grave errors in the train
ing of their sons and daughters.
1t is a pity that it is the poor child
who suffers from the experiments of
dutiful and well-meaning parents. I
am always sorry for the first child.
Upon him the young couple who are
responsible for his existence try all
their pet theories. And as all weather
signs fail in drought, so all theories
must fail in certain instances.
Without meaning to show shame
less partiality towards my own sex,
I must maintain that in the majority
of cases the mother understands the
small child better than does the

father. Why shouldn't she? 1t would
be strange IL she did not. From birth
she has the care of the little one.
She is with him for hours while the
father is with him for minutes.
She sees him when he is happy and
when he is miserable, when he is
naughty and when he is good. There
is also a bond between a mother and
her child that does not exist between
a father and his offspring. 1t is too
subtle and sensitive a thing to be de-
scribed in words, but it exists.
If one doubts it let him pause to
consider how much oftener fathers
will disown children than mothers will.
l have known good men who shut
their doors upon wayward sons. l
do not know respectable mother
who has ever done this.
She deserves no particular credit
for this. She cannot help the nature
that makes it impossible for her to
Danish her child from her life: But
in view of these facts it is foolish to
state that the average father loves
his child with the self lf-abandonment
peculiar to a genuine mother.
Therefore it is hard for a man to
understand a mothers attitude of re-
sentiment towards her husbands deal
ings with some Of the shortcomings
That baby should be forced to lie
still and keep quiet!" he declares
when reused in the night by the wall
ing of his year -old son.
But he is teething, dear" the wife
reminds him.
''Teething or no teething, he ought
to be taught obedience" the man in
sists. why don't you spank him and
tell him to lie still ?"
Spank him!" she bursts forth in
horrifed accents Spank him be-
cause he is suffering Never!"
Very well, then so into another
room where l can have some peace"
the incensed husband bursts forth.
Now you can spoil the child to your
hearts content"
And. with as much dignity as is
compatible with pajamas and slip
pered feet, the master of the domain
repairs to the vacant spare bedroom
to spend the rest of the night in
comfortable and self-righteous slum-
ber. .....
And the wife, as soon as the door
closes behind him, snatches the baby
from the crib and clasps him to her
breast, whispering to him tearfully
that he is her darling, her comfort.
As this is just what the youngster
wanted her to do, he sinks into a
peaceful slumber upon her arm. And
she, allowing him to remain there
through the remainder OF the night,
is fulfilling her husbands prediction
that she will spoil the child to her
hearts content"
