BOYS AND GIRLS
Fighting Instinct Diverted Into
Other Channels.
REAL ENEMIES IMPERSoNAL
Healthy Group RIVaIrles and competi
tlons VIII Absorb Energies That
Otherwise Are Likely to Be
Misdlrected.
BY sIDoNIE M. eRUENRERe.

TH HERE are three possible atti-
tudes toward the instincts of
children. At one extreme we
find the rather crude natural
ism which assumes that whatever is
natural" must be right; this leads to
indifference and indulgence. At the
other extreme is the somewhat less
crude but equally arbitrary Puritanism
which suspects every desire and i'm
pulse of being satanic in origin; this
leads to suppression and sterility.
Then there is the more or less rational
eclecticism that chooses to encourage
some impulses and to suppress others.
When we take into account the teach
ings of modern psychology and biology
we shall make our selections and adapt
our methods more effectively. Today
we do not simply repress or indulge :;
we try to utilize the driving forces of
the growing child TO forward cur own
ideals Of what a child should be. We
take the child as we find him, and try
to make him little stronger here and
to rub off a little there.
In the matter of fighting it is parti-
cularly difficult to form balanced judg-
ments and to develop sane plans. With
our usual habit of emphasizing one
aspect of a problem to the exclusion
of all others, we either fix our atten-
ton on the injuries resulting from con-
hict and become extreme pacifists, or
we fix the attention upon the need for
resisting aggression, for defending
our rights" and become belligerent.
In one case we make fighting an end
in itself; in the other case we make
the avoidance of fighting the goal Of
effort. With the child, however, fight
ing means more than defense, and it
need not always mean that; it means
something different from the conse-
quenceS to person and property. 1t is
almost entirely a matter of exertion, of
overcoming difficulties, of conquest-or
defeat - sometimes, but even then
chiefly as incidental to the conflict.
Our problem is therefore to make
full use of youths eagerness to exert
effort, to sacrifice, to devote itself. But
we must guard, on the one hand,
against drawing upon the antisocial

Senator Kern was talking about a
noted foreign statesman.
"The people want to get rid of him."
he said, "but I'm afraid they can't do
without him. They're like the jeal-

"a husband was very jealous of his
capable, managing wife. She had got
him his job and he owed his various
advances to her, but, nevertheless, he
got so jealous one night that he point
ed a revolver at her head.
"'What are you going to do, Jim,'
she asked, staring into the murderous
weapon, calmly.

The first Bible printed in America
was in an Indian language, translated
by John Elliott, pioneer missionary
to the Indians, and published at Cam
bridge, Mass. the New Testament In
1861, the entire Bible in 1858. In 1868
one William Bradford proposed to
print an English Bible by subscription,
the price of the book to subscribers
being 20 shillings or a pound sterling.
In 1777, during the Revolutionary war,
there were so few Bibles in the little
group Of states that congress voted
to print $4,000 copies. Even this was

Druggists Hard Luck.

An amateur poultryman received a
shipment Of fancy perfume atomizers
for the holiday trade.
After he had tried q few on his
friends and had arranged the stock on
the shelves he went home to say good
night to his hens and to gather what
eggs had been laid during the day.
He reached into one nest and felt
fur, which turned out to be fur of a
genuine willow pussy in the full flush
and vigor of young pussyhood.
He says he didn't mind his expert
ence in the chicken coop half so much
as he does the foolish comments of
business acquaintances who keep talk
ing about 'faunal atomizers."

soon the interest may be extended
from the mere "beating" of the rivals
to the increased contribution to the
corn crib at home. The same kinds Of
results morally are obtained when we
utilize the group rivalries in a "Clean-
up Contest" The girls will make their
streets and yards and porches as at
tractlve as possible, at first for the
purpose of making a better showing
than those of the next street. Pres
emily, however, the interest may be
directed so as to center upon the chas-
ing of dirt as the villain of the drama.
Now the older children can be led to
abandon the group rivalries as they
had already OutgrOwn the individual
rivalries, and the object of attack can
now be made some impersonal enemy,
rather than some particular person or
group. There is enough to fight for
and to fight against. Boys and girls
who have learned to work together in
the various kinds of contests need not
abandon the fighting motives, and the
powerful organizing influences that
these motives exert upon our activities.
But they must learn to fight real enc
mics, and for larger and larger groups.
Disease still remains to be conquered,
and the best physicians and nurses ap-
proach their work in the spirit of the
soldier. Fire prevention and FIRE de-
struction call for as much thought and
effort as the best can put forth. The
vast engineering and economic and So
cial problems furnish worthy foes for
the fighting instincts of our boys ana
girls.
