Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1916-01-16

<kCPARE the rod and spoil the child"
is q Solomonic Injunction long
held in reverence. There is also
an old rhyme that used to be taught little
girls to drive home the lesson of obedi-
ence. It runs:
Mary was little angel,
Always did what she was told,
Never disobeyed dear mamma,
Never made dear papa scold;
Little Mary, when she grew up,
Always had the best to eat,
Just because she was obedient
And never cried or stamped
her feet.
But little Jane wasn't like little Mary.
oh. dear, no. Hear about little Jane.
Little Jane was very wilful,
Always wanted her own way,
Caused her parents heavy
sorrow
Just because she d NOT obey,
SIhrieked and wept and tore her
hair,
Shook her fists and stamped
the ceilings
When she grew Ill her parents
saw
Her pass away with no sad
feeling.
Unmindful OF these warnings Mr.. Oscar
Sanger, the famous musician, and his
equally distinguished wife, decided when
they had a little daughter come to them
always to let her have her own way.
At the time Of the decision little Miss
khyva--that Is her name-having nothing
put the simplest wishes, couldnt be
harmed by 1t.
She must be natural" they said. ITO
try to turn her from her own tastes and

The negotiations on the part OF
