The child should be developed in &C.
cordance with its possibilities. 1t must
be watched and guarded by an awak-
ened mind. eager to discover these pos
sibili;ics and TO help In their expansion.
But in no case, not even under prcteXt
OF the most stubborn defiance OF disci-
pine, should one attempt 10 enslave the
child
To be good educator one must put
aside ones own character and ones own
preferences. One must get out of ones
self. in 4 sense, and throw n mature
mind into the soul OF the child.
Now. it is impossible for father who
receives his despotic authority by in
heritance and finds 1t enforced by law
and custom. To put his child above him
self and not below himself It is rhpos-
sble for the father not to hold himself
up as n model. Try to be like me. my
SON" he will always say, in effect
1t is equally impossible for the mother
not to see again in her chHd when it is
grown the baby who once had need OF
her feeble physical protection.
The father has TOO much power the
mother too much tenderness. for the
child that they mentally consider their
property.
In reality, to whom does the child be-
long? If it be the offspring Of a race OF
savages it belongs only to itself
But when the child Is the offspring Of
n civilized family it should be considered
rs belonging to the community which has
created the civilization in which it is
destined TO share.
In any case. il never belongs to its par
ents, who have only done for 1t what the

Children En-
tirely Away
from Parents
to Secure Their
Highest
Development
ByMadame Valentine de St. Point

Grandniece Of the Great Lamartno.
SHE child has in nearly all ages been
regarded as thing belonging
exclusively TO It's family, to those
| who have brought 1t into the world. II
seems TO parents that the normal and
natural act OF giving life to being
secures 10 them the exclusive property Of
that being, to which they accord no seri-
Gus rights and from which they expect
every duty.
This is traditional human error which
has brought untold misery and degrade
ton upon the human race, and which
! feel II 10 be my most solemn duty to COM
bat with all my strength.
Up TO the present the father has been
the head OF the family. ruling sometimes
his wife, but especially his children,
crushing them very frequently under
tyrannica yoke. The conception OF the
ancient Hebrew patriarch and the Roman
PaterfamiliEs has dominated modern So
cicty 10 its sorrow up TO our day. This
hard paternal yoke is regrettable because
It annihilates the personality OF the child.
| The independent children who seek 10
escape from ii are not only pursued by
the anger or curses OF the father, bur
often. even, by legal powers which are
al the command Of the head OF the family.
In our days paternal rights have been
somewhat restricted although in every
civilized country the law gives theoretical
control OF the father over his children up
10 the age Of twenty-one. Our inherited
ideas OF the paternal authority also give
the father an enormous power, which
varies considerably according TO locality.
and is perhaps greater in France than in
America.
In earlier generations the father had
the power OF condemning his son to life
long disgrace for some trifiins escapade,
and this idea is still strong with us.
The perils OF a disobedient son are
less grave than they used TO be, although
with US the father still possesses tho
atrocious power Of destroying the youth
of the son by shutting him up in house
of correction until his majority.

His kind He and his 'T'zibel' and
her 100000 dowry," he ended with
sarcasm and disgust.
Harris looked at him significantly.
"That $4,000 wouldn't come in bad
just now, would it :" he queried. It'd
open up way out of a rotten mess
and it's the only way"
The old man Strengthened up. He
threw his fine gray head back loftily.
He was again the illustrious scion of
German Jewish aristocracy, the proud
millionaire, the distinguished director
Of the Second National Bank, the
courted president of the Jewish In
stitute. He shot an angry glance at
his credit man, and sheer curled his
thin, finely chiseled lips.
"What are you talking about, Har-
ris? My son marry that vulgar Rus
sian Jews daughter p he protested,
contemptuously; and he strobe to the
farther end Of his office. "I'll have
no more of such advice" His voice

desk and ran his stubby fingers
through his iron-gray hair. He
scrutinized his employer, but not with

didn't have a cent My wife can't
talk enough about the Collinses. Fine,

"Why, I can't think of such a mar

note Of scorn and evaporation in
Hess tones. 81 can't bear the
thought those vulgar Russians" he
replied with unpleasant emphasis.
"It's as much as [ can stand to have
him on the board at the institute with
