By SARAH ]. WILSON.

Several days ago | was helping
some children build bonfire in a
backyard. AS we poked the fire the
pieces of charred paper flew up in
the air, rising higher and higher.
The children watched them with a
great deal of interest, calling them
birds" "airplanes,' and so on.
Finally one boy asked: What
makes them 60 up?" Because hot
air always goes up" | answered,
"and it carries the paper with it.
These simple facts satisfied him for
the time being. Further experience
with the same material will bring
forth more why's" and more i'm
portant facts will be learned and re-
membered, because they come out
of actual experiences.
There are a number of activities
that are especially attractive to
every boy and girl, but which are
also special source of anxiety to
every mother. They are those class
ed as Dangerous" tree-climbing,
swimming, making bonfres and
playing with hammer and nails,
knives, saws and firearms. l be-
lieve this list includes practically
all the occupations that are most
dear to the hearts of children, par
ticularly boys. And yet, if they
have a chance to indulge in them at
all it is usually against the wish, or
perhaps the direct orders, of their
parents.
Now stop a moment and consider
the unquestionable values that lie in
all these plays. Physical strength
and self-reliance come through
swimming and tree-climbing; in
dustrial skill and ability to think
and carry out ones ideas are devel-
oped by the use of hammers, saws
and like tools; and physical and
chemical facts are only small part
of the value to be derived from
botlfres and firearms.
Of>course, we cannot overlook the
fact that such plays are dangerous.
How are we going to meet the chill
dren's natural demand for them and
at the same time eleninate the dan
ger? In absolutely prohibiting all
experiments with dangerous" play
things the children generally take
advantage of some opportunity to
evade us and follow their own If
resistible inclinations. Even if
serious accidents from lack of adult
supervision do not happen, it will
be granted that the moral results
of such evasion of "the law" are
undesirable.
l believe a much better way of
dealing with the situation is to CO.
operate with the children in the
qualification of their very natural
desire to touch and work with

Children Know

things, and to help them carry out
their plans. If the parent, teacher
or adult playmate once really gets
the children's viewpoint it will make
a great difference and will do much
to solve this difficult problem.
Enter into the children's play, and
instead of constraint and fear bring
to it new enthusiasm and interest
through the greater knowledge you
possess of facts and conditions. In
this way, you will guard against
accidents at the outset by being
present to show the children chow"
and to explain dangers and remind
them once in a while about being
careful. Thus you will UNCONSCIOUS
ly avoid the mistake of making the
children feel that they arc watched,
treatment very calling to any one
who is learning self-dependence.
One great value of this attitude
is that you gain your child's conf
dence and can count on his atten-
ton and obedience with regard to
certain restrictions which you may
feel should be imposed, such as not
to light a match or build a fire I'M
less he asks you first. Best of all,
the children soon learn to be as
careful as the most particular adult
could wish. Did you ever watch a
child climb tree who has acquired
skill and self-reliance through such
helpful training? He knows we'll
enough that he must hold tight,
avoid dead limbs and be careful
where he puts his feet.
Will you not feel more confident
after procedure of this kind that the
children will be able to meet and
conquer other difficulties and ex-
periences and you can trust in your
sympathetic interest to make them
want to come to you in case of need
and in the ideals you constantly hold
before them to strengthen and guard
them from harm?

A Short Talk on
Hosiery for
Women

So much of the hosiery offered
these days is Of a character to be
stunned by anyone with hosiery
sense, that 1T seems information &C
quired in 80 years experience might
be of value.
First there is hosiery that is fash
toned and hosiery that is seamless.
Seamless hosiery is knit on ma
chine that begins at the toe and knits
an almost straight tube to the top.
This tube is then put on a board
shaped like human leg and wet,
heated and pressed into shape. This
shape cannot, of course, be held after
the first laundering, but becomes
again the baggy tube it was knitted.
Fashioned hosiery is knitted flat
into the exact shape of the leg, then
made circular by means Of a loop
ing machine. This shape it retains
under all circumstances. This process
requires two or three times as long
as the seamless and much more ex-
pert operators. Fashioned hosiery
is mucl. more difficult now to obtain
Most Of the hosiery we sell is fash
toned. Hence, our reputation Of
having the best hosiery.

A Mothers Opinion.
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

A Mothers Opinion.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
have been reading with considerable
interest tho letters concerning thu
affair Of Innocent. think "a
Middle Aged Woman's" letter toe
silly and shallow to be deserving OF
newspaper space.
"A Woman" writes as II it were
impossible for a man to be innocent
of sins against purity. She does not
seem to have any confidence in her
ability to mako men better. a. she
says: Her father, husband. sons
and brothers call themselves men"
wonder If she Is real woman
or just calls herself one.
Your Pal" asks why he took
girl Of questionable character to
dance? 1 recently heard a fine
young fellow say that 1t took no
nerve to ask a girl to 60 places
with him, but vt took a lot Of 1t to
refuse sometimes. Perhaps the girl
Innocent" wrote about is that kind
and she has plenty Of company. So
many girls are so forward and al
Turing, and some so suggestive IN
dress and manner that it speaks well
for the boys that they escape as
we'll as they do.
Your PAP says that her hus-
band made sure she was virtuous
girl before he married her. He
probably found out by taking liber-
ties that should have shown her
tho sort Of man he was, and yet
che Ii cha could
not want better husband, so he Is
good enough for her then.
Whenever women will demand as
much purity in men as men do in
women, the men will become better.
Why should the man have come
to her sisters and when she ac-
cused another man? He may have
thought she did not know herself
who to blame. Why didn't she tell
her father the truth? And, as to
it not hurting her character, II be-
coming a mother without marriage
did not hurt her character, she
probably didn't have any to hurt.
l am woman on the western
slope of life and have father and
four brothers, husband and six
sons. I have always received re-
spect from men, and / think most
women do who want respect
The inclinations of both boys and
girls are the same, and l advise
girls to marry no man that they
have any reason to doubt his pur-
ity.
1 will say to innocent" that un-
less you are guilty of SHINING with
the girl no punishment can be
greater than marrying her. To all
boys and young men I say keep
yourselves clean and good enough
for good girl and marry no other
kind. MOTHER.
