TEN MEYERS FOR PARENTS

In the Interesting People" depart
ment in the February American Mag
azine appears a remarkable article
about a twelve-year-old wonder child,
living in Pittsburg, named Winifred
Sackville Stoner. This little girl is
already an accomplished scholar. She
speaks eight languages, is an author,
and teaches at Carnegie Institute.
She can make speeches in various Ian
guages before large audiences, has
written and staged plays, often plays
in concerts upon both the violin and
piano, has beaten champions playing
chess, a row, fence, swim, ride
horseback, skate, play ball, cook, sew,
and execute fancy dances. Her moth
er attributes her unusual development
to natural education" Following
are ten MEYERS which Mrs. Stoner
has adopted in the rearing of children;
"Never give physical punishment.
Never say Don't. Never say Must.
Never let a child say 4 can't. Never
refuse to answer any of the child's
questions. Never allow a child to lose
self-respect or respect for his parents.
Never scold a child. Never allow any
other spot to become more attractive
than home. Never tease or ridicule a
child"

Why Mothers in Small Towns
Have Such a Hard Time

In the February American Maya
zine George Fitch writes an amusing
piece entitled "Homeburg's Worst En-
envy" in which he shows how the cit
les rob small towns of their boys and
girls. He says that Old Mar Oppor-
tunity is always standing outside the
small town, reckoning her greatest
men to the cities. In the following
extract taken from his article Mr..
Fitch shows how hard this is on
mothers who live in small towns:
"It's mighty hard to be a mother

the post-office for a year once-hand-
exactly what most of the mothers in
town wanted. could please them with
a new magazine and mystify them

But if / wanted to light them up UNI
til they took the shadows out of the

should see the mother begin to come
in hungry again the second day after
her letter came. And when a boy
came home successful and prosperous
and his proud mother towed him dowr

to see the wistful looks of her womer
friends. There is hardly a family ir

WOULD FLY; MAY NEVER WALK
Fate Surely Has Dealt Harshly With
Inventor Who Had Planned
Great Things.

After having worked in vain for 80
years on an invention which he hoped
would solve the probelm of aviation,
Frederick Merrill Shaw, eighty-seven
years old, of 237 North Grand avenue,
slipped On a banana peel at First and
Main streets yesterday morning and
sustained injuries from which physici-
ans at the Receiving hospital say he
can never permanently recover.
Its the irony of fate" the old man
said. 81 have devoted nearly all my
life to my invention, which, when per-
fected, would in reality permit men to
fly in the clouds with the safety of
birds, and here | am on a hospital cot
as the result of a simple accident on
the ground"
Mr.. Shaw is suffering from a frac-
tured limb, his left leg having been
broken neal the hip. Owing to his
advanced years it is not considered
likely that he will ever be able to
walk.
While discussing the accident and
his life work Mr.. Shaw, who is one of
the city's well-known eccentric charac-
ters, took from his pocket a sheet
of paper on which was drawn a dia-
gram of the air machine he had labor
ed on for SO many years. He exhibit
ed it with pride, declaring if he only
had more time and a little money
he could yet perfect it. His device
is of the famous Darius Green type,
providing huge wings to be operated
by men birds. About twenty years
ago he thought he had finished his in
vention, and in giving a public DEM
~onstration, fell from the roof of a
two-story building and broke a num-
Der of bones.
Upon three different occasions he
attempted to prove to the world that
he had mastered the air problem, and
each time fell to the ground, twice
breaking the same limb that was
fractured yesterday.-Los Angeles
Times.

we're drought, they
left their home, crossed Jordan into
the land of Moab, and dwelt there for
ten years. There the two boys mar
ried and died, leaving widows; and
Elimelech died. Evidently the leaving
of the Land of Promise, the Land of
the Covenant, to live amongst a people
who were idolaters and not in cove
mani relationship with God, had not
resulted greatly to the benefit of the
family: for when Naomi concluded to
return to her native land, she had
practically nothing.
1t is never good policy to sacrifice re-
ligious interests for temporal interests.
1t will not do to say that perhaps they
moved to Moab to do a little mission
airy work; for Gods Covenant was
merely with Israel, and the others
were aliens, like all other Gentiles.
Nor would it have been proper for
them to attempt to convert the Mo-
abites; for God. had called merely the
Israelites, as we read.-Amos 80.
1t was unwise to take two boys into
a heather land. where they were likely
to be contaminated; instead, every rea-
sonable influence should have been
thrown about them to preserve their
loyalty to Jehovah. Doubtless Naomi
realized all this, as indicated by her
words, ut grieveth me much for your
sakes that the hand of the Lord is
against me- Here again we perceive
that the Divine hand was really in her
favor. and that it had a proper influ-
ence upon her and brought her back
to the Land of Promise.
Two Beautiful Characters.
Naomi must have been a beautiful
character. This is evidenced by the
deep affection manifested toward her
by her daughters-in-law. Both prefer
red to go with her to her home land,
and started with her. But as she reflect
ed that they would be strangers in a
strange land, she tenderly urged them
to go back to their kindred, and re-
marry.
One of them so concluded. and kiss
ed her good-by; but the other one,
Ruth, broke forth in such eloquent
terms that her words have become per-
m%anently identified with classic litera-
ture:
.'Entreat me not to leave thee,
And to return from following after thee;
For whittier thou goest, 1 will go;
And where thou lodgest. l will lodge;
Thy people shall be my people,
.'And thy God my God
i Where thou diest / will die,
And there will I be buried:
The Lord do so to me, and more also,
RI aught but death part thee me-

verted, we of course do not mean tina

Christian promises; for there were none

Murderer Used Muffled Rifle and

Muffling the reports of his rifle with

old, and their two daughters, Bea'
triee, aged eighteen, and Daisy, six
teen years of age, and then commit
ted suicide in their home at 386 Cen.

The bodies of the victims of the
tragedy were found by Lester, the
fourteen-year-old son, whose suspi.
cions had been aroused upon awak.
ening in an adjoining room to find a
note slipped under the door reading:
when you wake up phone Uncle
Joe Levy and grandpa"
The note was unsigned, but was
plainly in the hand of Auerbach. 1t
is believed to have been indicted after
the crazed man had slain his wife and
daughters and made an unsuccessful
attempt to force an entrance into the
room of his son.
Although the rifle was of a 44-cali
Der and should have made a noise
that would awaken the entire house.
no one in the building, not even the
son nor Lottie Schliet. a maid, who
occupied rooms in the apartment, had
heard the shots.
The bodies, each shot through the
head, rested in their different beds.
Apparently the three women were
killed as they slept The two daughters
occupied twin beds in a room adjoin
ing that in which Auerbach and his
wife slept.
1t is the theory of the police that
the man arose after making sure that
the family were asleep, and taking
his rifle, slew his wife and then his
daughters. From their room he is
room, only to be baffled by the locked
door. Young Lester has been locking
his door since a burglar scare started
in that section of the city a few
weeks ago, a precaution which saved
his life.
After satisfying himself that there
was no way of entering the room
without arousing the other tenants OF
the house, the real estate man is be-
lieved to have made his way back to
his bed and ended his own life.
Evidently he pulled the trigger in this
final shot with a toe.
Terrified by his discovery, the boy
ran from the room of his parents to
that occupied by his sisters, with the
intention of .arousing them. One
glance at the two bodies told him the
tale in its terrible entirety, and then.
shouting at the top of his voice, he
ran screaming down the stairs into
the street.
Policeman Sullivan heard the boys
shouts and hurried from his post a
couple of blocks away. After a pre-.
liminary investigation, he notified his
station house and then called in Coro.

the family physician of the Auer

The physician shed a little light on
the deep mystery involved in the
quadruple tragedy, when he told the
authorities of having attended Auer
bach last autumn for a mild case OF
apoplexy. The last stroke was just be.
fore Christmas, DR.. White said, and
his patient had appeared to him ia
have completely recovered.
1t is thought, however, that the
peril of a recurrence of the ailmeni
might have unbalanced his mind and
led him to his desperate act.
