PROBLEM FOR THE PARENT
Just When and How to Dspel the lllu-
slons of Childhood Calls for
Serious Consideration.

The Illusions which youth entertains
about the things of the world are at
once the most appalling and the most
delicate things with which older per
sons have to do, says the Indianapolis
News. There is no lodging the fact
that the illusions must go. The con-
scientious mother who has taught her
son that to lie is to sin knows quite
well that when he grows older he will
learn that lies are of two kinds, white
and black, and that the time will come
when he will have to tell white lies,
and, because they are so like the black
lies against which his mother admon-
ished, he will find 1t hard And the IA
Their who looks upon his daughters
innocence with pride will shudder a
little at the thought that time will
bring to her some cold examples of the
duplicity of mankind. If he is fearful
it is not without reason, for on the
parent devolves the duty of guiding
the disillusioning process. AS this is
done well or i'll, so will the child's
view or life be Influenced
If, for instance, a child reared in
home where kindness is master is sud.
denly confronted with the spectacle of
two drunken men brawling in the
street the child's Illusions are treated
to an assault altogether beyond its
power to combat In the course of
events it would naturally learn that
men get drunk and fight, but that is a
revelation which should come to
mind whose rules of conduct are pretty
well established. In this case the
parent may well be moved to anguish.
To unfold the world to child is
matter for meditation and ingenuity,
and the parent who leaves it to chance
is no less guilty of maltreatment than
the parent who wantonly exposes
child to contagious disease, for the
mind of child is a delicate instru-
ment of surprising sensitiveness.

Enter the Camel.

The sad, ill-tempered camel, who
has borne so long the burdens of the
desert, is forced once more to make
his appearance on the field OF honor
AS he has been appearing there for
countless centuries, without a doubt
he is used to it, but this does not pre-
vent his remaining unpleasant. THE
camel" says an Oriental proverb,
curses its parents when it has to
go uphill, and its maker when it goes
down. This is hardly to be won
dered at, for it is well-established
fact that even young camels never
play. They are born sad, and there
after their life is one long protest
against being made to work, though
work has always been their portion.
How largely they have been domesti-
Gated from the earliest times, we
know from the statement that Job
possessed six thousand camels.

There has been genuine effort in
Kansas to incorporate into our body
polite, fundamental, moral ideas. We
have tried to base our laws upon eter-
nal truths which tend to righteous
ness. Kansas comes nearer giving
every man, woman and child within
its borders an absolutely square deal
and equal chance in every department
of life than any other commonwealth
in this union Our material pros
rerity. our high standards of public
morals, our personal well-being are
largely due to the fact that for more
than thirty years the open saloon has
been an outlpw in this state Our ply
steal development has not been stunt
ed, and our moral sense has not been
blunted by the degenerating influ-
ences of drink. There cannot be any
temporiZing with the LIQUOR curse, nor
should there be any compromise with
its partner in crime, the red light dis
trict.
To Lead in National Prohibition.
The record Kansas has made in
proving that prohibition does prohibit;
the blessings which have followed its
enactment as a mart of our fnnda.

us as a duty to the nation as well as
policy of selfprotection to take the
lead in an active propaganda for Ma

A certain amount of legislation is
necessary, but in practice how often
do we find personal motive or a pri-

the result that hastily-drawn, ill-con-
sidered, ill-advised measures are en-
acted into laws, cumber our statute

before it, that our people may have
constructive legislation and be spared

Kansas Has Constructive Laws.
Kansas has a shining record of ac-
complishment in the field of success
full, constructive legislation. Its pro.

its primary election law, its anti-pass

forward-looking spirit of the Kansas
