ROOM FOR MORE DEMOCRACY
Writer Of opinion That parents Gov
esn Toe Much by Mandate or
BY Exhsrtatton.

The typical parent is not democrat
ic In the treatment OF his children.
He likes to govern BY mandate or ex-
hOrtation. He dogmatically asserts
his views on every question that
arises. aad insists that he knows more
than his children. and he has no re-
spect for their motions" One cnn
listen to . parent telling his thirteen
year-old boy what kind of O cap he
must wear and how and when he must
wear II. though the boy says "the
boys will snicker" at him. and he does
not want TO be "the goat" Of the crowd.
But the parent will listen TO no argu.
ment; he says he knows better than
the boy what the latter ought to do.
sna no does not care what the boys
think.
Much Of the conflict between par
ents and children Is due to the fact
that the former DO not recognize the
right Of the latter to express opin.
ions contrary to those Of the parent
on any question oy problem vhateo-
eves. One can hear such q parent
say: " will teach you to obey. When
your opinions are wanted, I will ask
for them," and so on.

get an insight into his children's
thoughts about conduct and so he can

tightening the burdens and allcvlutlng

the petty worries and an inspiration

SUED ARTAxERxEs FOR LIBEL
Record Of Babylonian Court Shows
That xencphon Was Peeved Over
Published Article.

{
We hasten to announce that Keno
rhon sued Artaxerxes for libel 5000
years ago, alleging his good name had
been damaged to the tune Of 50 talents
of silver by the publication Of Il de-
fanatory article. The Minneapolis
Tribunes reporter fell down woefully
Dn this story, that newspaper admits,
md says: For the scoop" we are In
debted to an Oxford professor, who got
1t from the records on an ancient tab
let in the possession Of the University
Of Pennsylvania.
How the records came to be abstract
ed from the Babylonian court files we
have no opinion. We only surmise that
the clerk may have been boon COM
panion of ArtaxerXes or that the man.
nging editor of the BabylOnian, being
the presiding genius over yellow
sheet, instructed his courthouse man
to filch the tablet in order to beat the
Tidinss to the story.
Whether the defendant was n fore
bear of Longimanus Artaxerxes, or
MnenOn Artaxerxes or Ochus Ar
taXerxes, the Persian kings who
reigned from the fifth to the third
century before the Christian era, the
tablet does not indicate, as 1t appears
only to bear the praecipe. Nor is the
identity of the complainant clear. He
couldn't have been the Greek chap who
wrote the "Anabasis" because that
Nenophon, IL the histories are correct,
was born about $500 years after this
suit was filed.
Yes it must have been In the stone
age that this bit of litigation was
started. II Artaxerxes settled out of
court, or Xenophon had the suit dis
missed on his own account, the case
was quite simple, but If 1t went to
trial before jury, the licensed dray-
men Of Babylon must have had busy
week hauling evidence around. Fancy
counsel for the prosecution having his
henchmen move ten tons of stone to
prove up on dinky little point in
the evidence!

Little Russia, or Ukraine.

Little Russia, or Ukraine, is the re-
gion of the middle Dnieper valley, from
the marshes of Pinsk to the cataracts
below Ekaterinoslav. 1t was con-
quered In the fourteenth century by
Lithuania, and was long disputed be-
tween this power, Russia and Turkey.
Between 1854 and 1885 oil the Ukraine
east of the Dnieper, and In 1893 the
portion west of the river, passed under
the rule of the czars. The population
IS chiefly Little Russian, with a con-
siderable number of Moldavians. The
Little Russians are Of the Slavonic
stock, but many years ago underwent
n mixture with Turkish tribes.
The Russian language belongs to the
eastern branch of the Slavonic family.
There are many dialects, but the pre-
dominant literary language Is that OF
