These five little books have recently
fallen under my notice, and here give
their titles and prices for the benefit of
those who are in search of ideal stories
for children.
Stories OF some kind children must
have. And the best stories for childhood
are those Of the childhood Of the world.
The older the tale the better IL is. It
Is curious to reflect how the temples and
other structures of enduring stone have
crumbled, the cities have disappeared,
and all the proud works Of man have been
devoured by time, while these airy crea-
lures OF the fancy live on ever green.
How much more imperishable is spirit
than. matterl
The stories told in these books are the
kind that every child ought to have as
part of his mental equipment They per-
meate literature and life. Not to remem-
Der dates and facts is no disgrace, but
to be ignorant Of Achilles, Thor, Sieg-
fried, Apollo, Orpheus. and Hercules. and
Of their mythic exploits, is quite mex
Icusable.
The satisfactory condition, therefore,
results. that the things child ought to
know about are the very things he likes
best to hear about.
/ mention the Washington book in this
connection because he is our own hero,
one We whose life our children are all
too unA epiliar. and Mr.. Mace's volume
is singuldrly interesting.
Along with these. let your children
read those other child classics that ought
to be in every child's library; such AZ
Ruskin's Queen Of the Air" Charles
Kingsley's Heroes" Miss Yonge's Book
Of Golden Deeds" Hawthorne's "Tangle-
wood Tales" and that friend Of our
youth Bullfinch's Mythology, the Age Of
Fable" These any bookseller can get
for you.
Besides this, teach the children to play
at being Greek heroes and gods, dress
as Greeks, and initiate their armor.

lures, and familiarize them with classic
things.
The child can absorb more OF the at
mosphere of culture by stories and by
play than he can gain in years of study
in his more mature years.

sador, to represent the United States In
resumption of relations with the Car
rama government
Those of US who have followed the
difficulties Of Carranza and have kept in
touch with the constitution which he
has been drawing up for the Mexican
people, viii see plainly why President VIII
son is anxious to do what he can TO as
sist a leader who is responsible for so
progressive and commendable a docu-
ment.
The Mechanics and Metals National
Bank of New York City has issued a
financial handbook. entitled Mexico"
which gives us some interesting informa-
ton.
In il we are told: Zone thing is GER
tain, Mexicos financial and industrial
hope lies with the bankers and financial
interests of the United States"
The amount of American capital invest
ed is said by the American consul at Chi
huahua to be one billion, fifty seven mil
lion dollars.
In spite Of the revolution exports
from Mexico were larger in 1915 than
ever before.
Mining exports for 1928 were $685.
222,s1s.
There are So American oil companies
sending out in 1914 25,725, 403 barrels of
oil.
This" says the hand book, "is the
richest country in the world in all sorts
of productions and there is plenty of OPP
portunity for more capital TO be invested
and anywhere from so 10 100 PER
CENT 10 be made IF the old DiaZ gov
eminent, or one very similar. can be re-
stored"
The Mechanics and Metals National
Bank feels very sorry for Mexico and con-
siders that it is our duty TO save il from
itself and for oursef if we have to kill
of the Mexicans in order to do it.
1t is the White Mans burden. so TO
speak, and we must not shirk response
bility.
One might pertinently ask:
II all this exporting is going on. in
spite of the war, why are American cap
italists so upset and nervous over this af-
fair, and why are they so hurt with the
United States sympathy with the Car
rama de facto government?
IL is this little matter of the constitu-
ton and fears for the future, tho there
is no doubt but that many of them have
already been badly hurt.
Carranza has drawn up a constitution
which will cut down the percentage on
each barrel of oil and each ton of ore un-
I'll il is around the legitimate six per cent
mark.
Each barrel of oil. each ton of ore
taken out of the country must pay TO the
people of that country, to whom the land
belongs, proper sum and not be looted
from them.
Another thing is practically the sin
gle tax, and the million acre holdings,
lying idle, like that belonging TO William
Randolph Hearst and many others, will
be taxed to such an extent that, unless
it is used. il will not pay to hold it while
the people starve for want of patch of
garden on which TO make living.
These are the principal reasons for the
righteous indignation" felt by certain
interests toward the administration s
course in Mexico and for the firm convic-
ton that only Intervention will clean
things up"
