Hints to Parents: Be Consistent
 With Children
(By Sarah G. Simpson.)

Consistency is one of the funda- mental qualities of discipline, and from my own experience l have found it to be most important. It should always be accompanied by kindness. More mothers have trou- ble with their children because of their own inconsistency than for any other one reason.
 Johnnie comes home from school and asks, "Mother, may l go over to Billy Bakers to play?" and mother, knowing that Billy's influence is not good, refuses. Johnnie displays more or less temper, but mother is firm, and Johnnie stays at home. A few days later, however, Johnnie makes the same request, and mother, who is entertaining a caller, lets him go for little while. This is a case of inconsistency, and in order to save one scene, mother is laying a good foundation for many more. The probability it that had she re- piled, "mother has told you before" the matter would have ended there, or even if he had cried little and made a scene," the son would have had valuable lesson and learned that mother meant what she said. His love for the moment might have been shaken, but eventually Johnnie would have been a happier boy and his love and respect for his mother would have been greater.
 The value of consistency cannot be over-estimated. The tiniest baby should be dealt with kindly, but firmly. A mother can develop the teasing habit in her child while he is still in his cradle if she lacks this quality of consistency. At one time when her baby cries she does not pick him up for she says, Ut is not good for him and he is forming bad habits" But the next day if she is nervous and unwilling to endure his noise, she yields "just for once." The result is that she gives in to her child more or less through his later childhood.
 Again, with an older child, the mother will partially concede, sort of compromise, and the child is keen enough to know that he has gained his point and each time he will seek to gain a little more, until the moth CT realizes when it is too late, that her problem is great and her wore really has very little weight.
 My advice is: be considerate ir your requirements of child, ant then be consistent in seeing that these requirements are carried out Irritable, nagging mothers and un attractive, nervous children would be almost unknown if the former could realize the importance o' kindness and consistency. Lack 0: sympathy and strained relations be tween parents and their older chil dren often spring from habitual in consistency.
 Perhaps the most important thing

: New York, Sept. 24-Mlle Jeanne Bourgeois is sailing back to to her dear Paris tomorrow-a wiser, if not exactly a sadder, young woman. For Mile. Bourgeois has discovered that beautiful legs and neatly turn ed ankles are the rule rather than the exception with American girls.
 Mile. Bourgeois, who is known pro- fessionally as Mile. Mistinguett, is one of the leading figures of the French stage. She originated the Apache dance among other things, and whenever she appears in her dear Paris there sa packed audience. In short, she is great favorite.
 Too Much Territory.
 Although not great beauty, Mile. Misinguett is noted for her beautiful legs and graceful ankles, and when she arrived in New York the other day her pedal extremities wer pho tographed by the ship news and movie photographers and published broadcast. Many editors captioned the photographs as the most beautiful legs in the world, with the result that hundreds of protests poured in on them from various parts of the coun- try. For while Mile. Mistinguett's $ legs might be, and probably are, the most beautiful in Paris, to assert that they are the most beautiful in the world is to take in too much terri tory.
 Yer Yer Sad.
 My visit to America has made me very sad," sighed the famous Pari- sian dancer before she sailed. "I had no idea that there were so many beautiful women in America. Every where l go I encountered them, in the shops, in the restaurants, in the streets. And what beautiful limbs

they have. It is very sad for me. be- cause I thought there were none to compare with meat least, none more beautiful. But 1 have seen a dozen, yes, a. hundred girls here Tn New York with legs far more beauti- full than mine.
 I thought I would find New York like a three-ring circus. had been told it was the gayest city In the world. But what did l find? The dullest, most stupid city l was ever in. All your theatres were closed by the strike. 1 could get nothing to drink in your restaurants and every where I turned l saw beautiful young girls.
 Shops Girls Pretty.
 Do you think that is conducive to gayety, to see nothing but beautiful women on every side?" asked Mile. Mistinguett. "It is not, especially when everyone you see is more beautl- full than you are."
 Didn't you find anything to your likings ?" was asked.
 "The shops on Fifth avenue are very fine-many of them superior to those in the Rue de la Paix. But the shop girls are too beautiful to suit me.
 Seriously, what is there to do in New York with no champagne. Paris during the first months of the wal was much gayer-even when we tho' the boche might arrive in time fo1 dinner. No, America has no charm for me. will not be happy until get in my dear Paris. There they know how to appreciate beautiful women fo1 there are not so many of them. Here in your New York beauty is too com mon-a drug on the market, as you1 chemists say."-Karl Kitchen.

OKL AROMA TOWN DENIES REPORTS
 OF RIOTS THERE
Mayor Says "BOlshevik Sources Attempted to Start
 Disturbance.

Drumright, Okla., Sept. 24.-Ad- jutant- General Barrett of the Okla homa Guard, six units of which ar rived here last night in response to calls from Mayor Nicodemus and District Judge Wilcox, after the mi nor disturbance of Monday night, was preparing early this evening to depart for Oklahoma City, leaving a company of fifty guardsmen to pa trol certain districts here.
 The highly colored reports of dis order, said to have been accompanied by promiscuous firing in the streets and the attempted burning of the Southwestern Bell Telephone com- pany's office, were sent out appar- ently from neighboring towns, in- cluding Sapulpa and Shamrock. The disarming of Chief of Police Ary by handful of rowdies in front of a motion picture theatre Monday afternoon and the firing of two shots into the air by member of the crowd gave rise to the reports of rioting, according to city officials here. The disarming of Ary follow ed an attempt by him to disperse the small gathering which was listening to a speech by an unidentified man who denouncing the city administra- tion and demanding the resignation of city officials.
 Mayor Nicodemus, upon hearing of the disarming of the Chief Ary left town in an automobile believing his presence might lead to serious trou hle because of his stand against the radical element of the oil fields about town. He returned Tuesday morning and immediately issued an announcement that "bolshevik sour- ces" had attempted to start distur- bances using the local strike of 19 girl telephone operators as pre- text.
 Surrounding towns of Shamrock, Oilton and Sapulpa, upon receiving private advices from Drumright that rioting was going on, sent sheriffs and deputies.
 The state guard units were pre- pairing to leave about ten o'clock tonight for Oklahoma City. Only about twenty of the guardsmen were used to patrol streets in front of office buildings here today. Drum right had heard little of the elleged disorders until it read outside news papers this morning, according to responsible officials.
