principal argument-or threat-has
been everywhere that rejection OF the
covenant means a vast standing army
for the United States, back breaking tax
alton, an autocratic Government and a
nation infested with spies This threat
has been levelled at business men Just
as his praise of the labor section has
been addressed to working men, for
Mr.. Wilson gives his audiences the med
icine he thinks each needs. y
He coins new phrases daily, for his
vocabulary is inexhaustible: 1.-THE union
of the strong to protect the weak"
The League of Nations is the express
sion of the spirit Of humanity" 1.-THE
league of fine passions 1.-THE charter
OF mankind THE American conquest
Of the world" and many others, and
his talk is largely of sweeping world
ideals which America must serve or
live through the centuries in shame and
contumely.
He ignores Irelands present plea. but
hints that Ireland will be welcome some
sweet day before the council of the
| league. He speaks never a word of
Mexico. He descends. regretfully, to
material matters and. apologizing for
the descent, holds that American trade
will sicken and die II America stays out
of the league. He processes the highest
respect for the United States Senate, but
so phrases his illusions to Senators as
to make it thoroughly plain whom he
means when he refers TO contemplate
cutters, political bolshevists, trade
runners, private plotters. gentlemen in
capable of altruistic purposes and men
who will be hanged by the annals OF
history upon a sibbet higher than
Humans.
These epithets excite applause occa-
| sionally, for people are just human
enough to like to see Presidents step
down little once in a while, but as to
how much the cause of an unqualified
covenant is furthered may be another
matter.

May Accept n Compromises.

Does Mr.. Wilson really believe heran
drive through the Senate an UNQUALIFIED
covenant? Probably not The guess is
that he proceeds to the West TO scare
the bitter enders no further than into
the ranks OF the mild reservationers:
cut to try to escape total defeat; out to
play his last card. There are persons
close to him who say he realizes he
may have to accept a compromise, but
that he does not intend to give an inch

mand. The central States have settled
down to the belief that there must Dc

a compromise should be reached with
out more ado. Speeches and appears
scarcely will change this opinion.
The sentiment for compromise De-
tween the President and the Senate
arises partly from the very human
puszlement Of the people. On tne one
hand they have their President whom,
as President, they highly respect utter

Fear of European EntanElements.
1t arises partly from the sentiment
that to them the war ended when the
armistice was signed, and that wnen
the war ended the United States had
done its duty by the world and now

dropped stitches of business and
domestic happiness. 1t arises partly
from the fear. old las America, oil

that too much time has been wasted

Greeting by Rodman wanamaker.
Mr. Wanamaker's letter Is as follows:
Through its foremost city which gave
citizenship and wealth without stint In
the world war, the ending Of which is
marked by your return to your native
shores, America greets you. AS the
leader Of Its mighty army your example
has been the inspiration to the people
of the United States no less potent than
the matchless courage, fidelity and pa
triotism exhibited at all times by the
officers and men subject to your COM
mand. From the Far West, from the
North, from the East, from the South
Of your country, and from lands across
the Pacific where the Stars and Stripes
symbolic freedom and justice and where
in other days you gave proof OF devotion
to the republic, come the voices Of the
millions of your fellow citizens anxious
to join IN this tribute which has fallen
to the lot of the East and Of the city OF
New York to extend to you.
Indeed fortunate is the metropolis
to be thus honored among the citizens
Of America. Our citizens have watched
with feeling of patriotic pride the
progress of your khaki hosts from the
day their footsteps first echoed through
beloved France. In spirit we have been
with our heroic sons at Chateau Thierry,

sacred by their struggle for right,
Their sufferings have been our suf-
ferings. Their triumph for the cause
Of world democracy has lessened the
grief and sorrow in tens of thousands Of
our homes where gold. stars denote the
sacrifice of a mother in the great cause.
Your presence reminds us once more
| that tho greatest of all conflicts In the
history Of the human race Is over and
that America has taken a place among
the nations Of the earth second to none.
Your coming home also reminds us that
right has triumphcd over might and
that our sons who crossed the seas with
you have won the gratitude not alone Of
this country but of the world

years of age. and 1 think that is old
enough that she ought to have
learned to act nice like some of her
.playmates, don't you think? Maybe
I could teach her. If so, please tell
me how?" +.
Most certainly you can and should
teach your children to show courtesy
and genuine sympathy.
Here is an account of a good way
in which one mother did it:
Mrs. Swain wished to teach her
little girls, Miriam, aged six, and
Eva, aged four, to show sympathy
and courtesy to those whom they
had injured or in any way incon-
venienced. In order to drill them in
this she made a little game of 1t.
Let us have little game, chill.

sit here in this chair and hold your
doll. Now Miriam, you take chair
and place 1t near hers. Let the chair
hit against the one. on which Eva is
sitting and when the chairs strike
together, say: II beg your pardon.
I am sorry" When she says that
Eva must smile and reply, "I didn't
mind"
When they had finished this con-
structive play, Mrs. Swain told them
to exchange places and play it over
again. The next day she varied the
game by having one of the girls
seated and then asking the other to
stumble against her, when the same
words were used as before. The
game was changed somewhat every
day, but practically the same express
sions were used SO that the children
learned to understand the use of the
phrases they were employing. as..,
One day Mrs. Swain went to call
upon her friend, Mrs. Nicholson,
whose little daughter Lola showed
Miriam her doll. Accidentally
Miriam dropped the doll and broke
its head. She Immediately said, 81

to go on playing. =.
When they returned home, Mrs.
Swain took Miriam to a store and
had her select doll head as nearly
as possible like the broken one. On
the following day Miriam was happy
to give this new head to Lola to re-
place the. one her carelessness had
destroyed. .
Mrs. Swain privately requested

The latter point is essential to the
development of genuine sympathy.
Mere talking and moralizing about
showing sympathetic attitude may
give the correct idea, but actual
practice in executing 1t is necessary
in order to teach a child properly.

received. But we can only Judge
of the efficacy of anything by its re-
suits, so let us consider the effects
of this nothing g-but-the-truth caus-
erie.
Every girl present on that We'd
nesday evening was probably affect
ed by this searchlight of criticism
very much as YOU were, and by your
own account you were at first aston
ished at this new and unfiattering
picture of yourself, and then it filled
your mind to the exclusion of every
thing else. You thought it over and
over. You considered 1t from every
angle. Then came the painful real
ization that it was the truth.
Now 1 ask you did this clear up
the whole thing for you? Not at
all.' 1t merely produced feeling of
dependency, which was followed
by encouragement. And that isn't
the worst of it. You are still swor-
rying over it, and making yourself
unhappy. You are paying yourself
SO much for plying yourself, that
you are quite miserable.
The cure my dear, is simple
so simple that you may treat it with
scorn. You may think l am taking
your perplexity lightly, and talking
down to you in a superior, there

are very young. 1 assure you that L
am doing nothing of the kind. 1

for your bother, it is this-forget
it! t.-
What If you are inclined to re-
gard yourself as imposed upon and
ill-treated now and then? Such

And why should you expect to be ex-

A Home Made Gray
Hair Remedy
You Can Make at Home Better
Gray Hair Remedy Than
You Can Buy

Gray, streaked or faded hair is not
only unbecoming, but unnecessary.
You can darken it without using q
dye.
Amy one can prepare a simple
mixture at home, at very little cost,
that will darken gray hair, and make
1t soft and glossy. To half pint of
water add 1 ounce of bay rum,
small box of Barbo Compound and
u ounce of glycerine. These ingre-
dients can be bought at any drug
store at very little cost, or the drug
gist will put 1t up for you. Apply
to the hair twice week until the
desired shade is obtained. This will
make a gray-haired person look
twenty years younger. 1t is not a
dye, 1t does not color the most deli
cate scalp; is not sticky or greasy
and does not rub off,"

~. MAKING THE MOST OF. -
- OUR CHILDREN u
A Series of Plain Talks to
Parents
By Ray c. Beery, ABB, MA.
President of the Parents Association.

COME children are taught to say
merely the words, II am sorry
as a matter of form, in circum-
stances which usually CALL forth
such an expression.
OF course, it is true that even to
say the words, II am sorry" natural
ly tends to arouse a proper feeling.
But children should be taught that
mere words are insufficient when
they have caused some one to suffer;
that definite action-replacing of ar
ticles lost or broken-should follow.
1t is unfortunate that so many of
our children are allowed to grow up
without even being taught to use
courteous expressions.
Let us see a typical case. A
mother writes to me:
II have noticed that my children
do not say courteous things and
sometimes act ugly when with their
little playmates. My daughter is six
