FRICTION IN FAMILY ISFATAL

fitted to enter upon the work of life
is friction in the family. Young people
are by nature loyal to their parents
and it is almost never that a young
person will give as a reason for his
leaving home the fact that his father
and mother quarreled or nag at each
other or do not agree upon certain
points.
Friction in the home creates an in
tangible, impalpable atmosphere in
which the sensitive child chokes and
pants for the free air of happiness,
or is warped and stunted mentally and

pattern is studied out, and the success
sion of it sent TO the printer. The
skeins of yarn to be used for the loops
on the surface Of the carpet are wound
on large cylinder. attached to which
are troughs of color which come in
contact automatically with the yarn
and print it according to the success
sion of cOlors indicated in the design
The skeins are taken from the cylIn-
der, showing crosswisc streaks of va
ried color. and are carried to the steam
chest TO have the dye set. When the
carpet is woven, the pattern Is COM
