SPADES, CLUBS,
AND HEARTS

INF you are a parent under
III which of the above CLASH
fications do you come?
There are but four kinds of
fathers says Prof. David VOL
ford who has the department
of pedagogy at a Pennsylvania
normal school.
"The spade parent" he says,
lis constantly plunked into
work. He regards his chill
dren as fixtures, and they re-
gard him as a formidable kind
of hired man. He buys cloth
ing and food for their bodies,
but their souls may go naked
and starving for all of him.
"The club parent, too proud
to loaf on the street corner,
enjoys the same luxury in hotel
or club room, where there are
more creature comforts and
less public inspection. The
club mother unselfishly places
her neighborhood duties first,
her children second. Both
husband and wife are good
fellows when you come to
know them but their children
know them not.
"The diamond parent is he
who seeks glitter, wealth,
pleasure, reputation. He will
shine somewhere at all costs.
but he does not, like Cornelia,
regard his sons as his jewels.
His. home is rich, even if it is
mortpaged. Some of his chill
live in it; others may be
found wherever the wild oats
up.
1.-THE heart parents are es-
5entially home makers. They
have a table, a fireside, a crib,
a library. They have found
he elixir of life. for they daily
'elive their youth in the lives
If their children"
Plainly the heart parent is
preferred stock with Prof. VOL
and he is right about it.
Yet it is observable that homes
are happier where the male
parent aside from being able
% love and play with the fam
ly also brings home the bacon
n the form of those comforts
hat go far toward making life
enjoyable. In other words il

W crop report estimated the
corn yield at 2,643, 0O0,-
600 bushels, compared with g.

ago. OF wheat the yield is es-
timated at only 607, 600, 900
bushels, against 1,Q11,O00, 900
bushels last year. These fig
ures explain the high cost of
food, without regard to the
war which has further lessened

The high prices of cotton,
meats, leather, wool, copper,
coal and other necessities is al
most entirely a question of sup

While the outlook of the
