KINDERGARTEN HELPS
FOR PARENTS

(By Sarah C. Simpson

Consistency is one of the funda-
mental qualities Of 6Szcipline. and
from my own experience ] have found
it TO be most important II should
always be accompanied by kindness.
More mothers have trouble with their
children becaues Of their own incon-
sistency than for any other one rea-
son.
Johnnie comes home from school
and asks, Mother. may ] go over to
Billy Bakers TO play" and Mother,
knowing that Billy's influence II 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. let's him 20 for
a little while. This IL a case Of incon-
sistency, and, in order TO save one
scene, Mother il laying a good found
alton for many more. The probable
ity is that had she replied. Mother
has told you before" the matter
would have ended there. or even II he
had cried a little and made a scene"
the son would have hal 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 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 firm
ly. A mother can develop the teas
ing habit In her child while he Is still
in his cradle II 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 =

she yields "just for once" The re-
suit is that she gives In 10 her child

mother will partially eoneede. a sort

TO SHANTUNG CLAUSE

Sections awarding the Shantung rights
to Japan. Notice also was given by
a number of the Republican senator's
who opposed the committee amend
ment that they would present reserva

award.
More than twenty senators took
part in todays debate, extended
speeches being made for the amend
ment by Senators oJhnson OF Califor-
MIA, Sherman of Illinois, and LaFol-
lette Of Wisconsin, all Republicans,
and against it by Senator'S Phelan Of
California, a Democrat, and McCum-
ber Of North Dakota, a Republican.
| Senator Williams, Democrat, Missis-
sippi, injected into the discussion a
| bitter denunciatiOn Of the attitude Of
some Irish Americans, and sharp re-
plies were made by Senators Phclan
and Gerry, Democrats, Rhode Island
After the roll call few minutes
was devoted to the formal reading OF
the long treaty text, and the leaders
expect to continue the task tomorrow
The general prediction was that vote

LUe's Problems
Are Discussed

Talk to man-any man in the

Work.
Within that ten minutes he viii
either talk about what is being done

what some one else ought to do.
Talk to a woman-any woman in

does she talk about? Trouble. s
She complains about this or that.
She either discourses on her own
or some one else's illness or griefs
or worries. She dilates on some mis-
fortune which has befallen either
herself or her friends. These are her
customary themes.
am not speaking now of those
souls bewildered. dismayed and dis
couraged in those black hours which
come in all lives, when the instinct
is to reach out for help and SYM

the main quite comfortable and who

| they would only allow themselves
that privilege.
For these reasons, the average
man is more agreeable companion

better one than worry.

a thousand times better for the in

templating some physical, mental or

Tom Chandler appeared at his best

Brent sisters. Quick at repartee. he
and Honora were well matched in
wits.
When appealed to. Mildred Joined
but half-heartedly in the converse
ton. At other times she sat silent,
her eyes resting moodily upon her
hands. folded idly in her lap. Tom
commented on this fact.
"I see ou are not ! one of the
knitters, Mildred" he observed. Miss
Honora knits steadily while she talks
interestingly-which is a rare ae-
complishment, 1 think"
IT knit, too" Mildred averred.
''But. as I have to stop occasionally
to count stitches. I do not consider
it a compliment to a guest to give
him my divided attention"
Tom smiled. 81 fancy that is

'If the shoe fits she can wear it,"
Mildred remarked.
But it does not fit" Tom de-
clared. "for your sister has not had

pleasure of the occasion to watch
her pretty fingers busy with socks

Honora laughed. do you fancy

For me?' the youth queried, au-
daciously.

piled.
Had Gone Too Far
Then as she noted the cloud gath
ering on her sisters face, she sub
sided into silence. In her effort to
appear natural and to prevent Mil
dred's yielding to Toms fascina-
tion. she had talked more than she
had meant to.
For the following half-hour she
said little, and gradually Mildred
came out of her sulks. and, finding
that Tom was now paying especial
heed to her. became her usual gay
self.
At last the caller arose. "I must
go home" he said. This evening
has been more of treat than 1
dared hope for. I had no idea that

Parents will then understand that
their first duty to the child Is to
promote and maintain it's health.
Their next duty is to study it's pro-
clivities and tendencies, and see that
it is trained to follow some congenial,
avocation.
When they have drilled into thei'
daughters some idea of the import
ance of good health. and have seen
