BE UP AND DOING

When General Wood came back

first possible moment. T1e. impressed
the need of much stronger backing
Of the war. He made us feel much
like we are considering this huge
slaughter of nations as a mere
picnic.
Following him Secretary Baker has
returned from Europe with much the
same story. With all emphasis this
high official declares we should back

taking as demands the support of the
entire country as never an enterprise
has been supported in all the history
OF the nation. Secretary Baker speaks
as if his is an earnest appeal,

these appeals. Patriotism and loyalty
are not evidenced in talk. II is going

the people go to the task with vim

No one Of our high officials goes to
Europe and returns without the strong
impression that we ought to be

perhaps we may have seen a bird,
squirrel or a child do some amusing
thing as we glance out Of the window
while at work The wind may have
been chasing the pretty leaves, or the
sun playing hide-and seek among the
clouds. Stories are not all to be found
in books. 1t is a big accomplishment
to learn to do things in the childs

we have often denied them because
we felt we didn't have time to be
bothered.
If the little ones see that mother
and father are trying to find some
thing to love in all their trying tasks,
before we know it the home will al
ways be full of sunshine. If we have
fretful child to deal with, find out
first if he is being properly nourish-
ed; then try telling him stories which
will take his mind off himself.
Many children are often disagree
able because they haven't enough of
the right things to do, such as games
and songs, that provide activity and
stimulate the mind and occupations
that answer the child's need to be
doing and making something.
A most important point for the
mother to realize is the necessity of
sticking to the lessons she needs to
teach every single day until the right
habits are permanently formed in

What are some of the simple ways
in which we can help our little ones?
Let us begin the day happily, no mat
ter how we feel, and never be discour-
aged nor allow the children to be-
come so. Together, mothers and chill
dren can learn to be honest, obedient
and faithful.
1t should not be forgotten that all
virtues thrive best in a healthy body.
Therefore, give the child plenty of
fresh air, have him sleep in a we'll
ventilated room, wear clean, whole
clothes, and eat simple food.
Let the children take hold and help
about the house little. At 10 years
old they can wash dishes, and they
love to do so An oilcloth apron will
keep them dry. They can also help
make beds, brush up crumbs and do
many other things. But we must not
