YOU should have seen those Huns

never did see. From the way they
acted they must have been members

Boche escadrille). If so, they surely
acted up to the name, for we
maneuvered for fully ten minutes
trying to get on their tails. We finally
gave it up as a bad job and went
home, for with their lightness and
powerful motor they were too active
entirely to keep the sight on long
enough to shoot a bullet.
Owing to the hot weather when I

If the family are all engaged in

Your child is probably just a per-

thoughtless than troublesome, but
needing direction in this as. in every

Your child's manners reflect you,
and you are naturally concerned
about them. Babies may be excused
for speaking out loud in the midst
of solemn performance. but chill
dren should know better.
The fact that many grown-ups do
not know how to conduct themselves
in public, may explain why it is so
difficult for children to learn good
manners, but this will not excuse
either of them or you. The grown
ups may be too old to learn. The
children are not.
What shall do with my ten
wear old SOM" one mother
writes. I'VE are obliged to take
him out with us because there
is no one to leave him with, and
we frequently take one of his
companions along; but we are
constantly humiliated by their
behavior. If we take them to q
concert or moving picture show
they chatter and annoy other
people. And somehow they al.
ways manage to have chewing
gum or peanuts in their pock-
ets."
First of all, show that you are "a
good fellow" then try gradually to
show the boys what is expected of
them in public. For instance, before
YOU go to a concert next time you
might say:
Lets all sit together tonight.
There are some things l want to talk
to you about between numbers"
Lead them to see that it is thought
less to talk and prevent other per-
sons from hearing. But between
numbers enter heartily into their
conversation.
Another time you might say:
Boys, have you had all you want
to eat? If not. get it and eat 1t now.
We will not have any eatabies this
time when we are trying to enjoy
the music. If you have peanuts, eat
them at home"
Your boy complains, But the
other boys all eat while the music
is going on"

Under the heading, THE Truth
About Harry vardon." Golf Illus
trated and outdoor America, Just
out, says:
'An Intimate acquaintance Of the
Great Harry recently wrote to John
g. Anderson about Vardon's trip to
the United States. and explained the
situation In this way:
Hitherto Vardon has not been
classified for military service. and
until he is so classified 1t will be
impossible for him to obtain a pass
port to this country. Experts seem
to think that he will be able to be
placed in Class 8. in which case he
would be able to secure the neces-
sary permission for the trip. He is
now one year shy of half century.
and his health is such that there is
little likelihood of his being called
for military service at the front.
He has been offered $2.5o0 and
expenses for the American trip. and
Is perfectly ready to come. Arnaud
Massy. the French professional, was
invited to accompany him. but has
been wounded too severely that golf
for him will be out of the question
for some time to come. Braid has
been invited to take his place, and
as he Is the same age as Vardon, il
Is more than likely that he will be
placed in the same class; in which
case. IL one comes. the other il

steamed up. In loud voice and with
gesticulations that reminded many
persons OF a whirling Dervish.

Hubby jumped around with Joy
