Parents naturally harbor secret am
billions as to the future of the children;

let the secret out And it is quite nat
uraI that they should, because they
transfer TO their children the hopes of
their own childhood, the hopes that
never crystallized into reality We can
therefore understand why the serb

it is just rs natural TO translate the
annoying or unconventional activities
into gnawing fear.
Charles Darwin tells US in his auto
biography of being rebuked by the
schoolmastcr for wasting his time on
such subjects as chemistry. We should
explain this by saying that the school
master had no appreciation OF subject
of which he was totally ignorant. But
he tells us further that he was greatly
mortified when his father once sa'd 70
him: "You care for nothing but shoot
ing dogs and rat catching, and you will
be disgrace to yourself and all your
family" Now. Darwins father was not
an ignorant man. and he was not un-
sympathetic; but his Imagination was
not equal to interpreting the child's
interests and activities in terms other
than those Of loafng, shooting and rat
catching.

Turkey and Asia Minor on the east.
In the rough its length from the
Mediterranean northward is 400 miles
and it's average width is about $50
miles. For the greater part 1t is a
shallow body of water, but between
Samoa and Chios, near the Asiatic

Grecian archipelago, and stretching
across its entrance, in the Mediter-

which Dedaelus made his remarkable
flight, anticipating the advent of fly
ing machines.
According to one of the mytholog-
zeal stories the sea took its name from
Aegeaus, the father of Theseus and
King Of Athens. When Theseus de-
parted from Athens to deliver that
city from it's tribute to M!nos and to
destroy the Minitour, he promised
his father to hoist a white sail on his
return from this desperate venture
as signal of safety. Theseus, in the
intoxication of his triumph forgot ms
promise, and when his father from
the shore saw the black sail Of his
sons galley he was overcome by
grief and threw himself into the sea
which ever after bore his name.
The Bulgarian coast line on the re.
gean is about eighty miles long, the
principal ports being Port Lagos and
Dadeaghatch. The news reports
state that the Allies have prepared to
land troops at the former port. The
latter port has been subjected to o
severe bombardment with a large
loss of life.

One November Z, 1912, it was taken

Saloniki is the leading trading port
on the Aegean and has a population
of about 100000. The first settle
