THEIR FIRST IDEAS OF LIFE

That pep and all the other charac-
teristics which temper the American
are bound up inextricably in the toys
we provide for our children is the
reasoned belief advanced by Sarah
Comstock in Good Housekeeping. To
quote:
Look over the drama of life that
your small son and daughter are re-
producing there on the nursery floor.
What is the basis of the girls idea of
the real world? 1t is playing house.
Isn't that profound and a beautiful
fact? Already she is carrying out
those instincts that are as old as the
race. She mothers her dolls, rocks
them to sleep, trundles them in a car
riage. She furnishes their house and
keeps it in housewifely order with lit
tie broom or carpet sweeper. She
launders their garments with tub,
dashboard and tiny iron; she cooks
Tin imagination) their meals upon a
stove and sets them forth in dainty
dishes.
Trains of cars, motors, boats,
Noah's arks, reins, fire engines, all
offer the boy the opportunity to act
out the primitive masculine life that
appeals SO strongly to his youth, the
life of simple. manly proves. He
would far rather be brave soldier,
fireman, engineer or sailor than a
lawyer, professor, painter or poet. He
revels in those sturdy playthings that
he can arrange and rearrange, draw,
prOpel, sail-in fine, can direct and
operate with his own lively young
energies"

TO CURE NAUGHTY CHILDREN

A morbid eXaggeratiOn and per-
version of the natural desire which
all children feel for notice by their
elders, is held by Thomson to be the
cause of abnormal naughtiness in
children. These cases are of essen
TALLY the same nature as those of
moral imbecility" in children who
are in some degree mentally defec-
tive. The proper lines of treatment
are clear enough and when carried
out consistently and thoroughly are
rapidly and completely successful.
They may be summarized as follows:
CD All severe corporal punish
ment must be stopped-it never does
any good. (2) Nobody must ever
appear shocked, amused or even sur
prised at anything a child does. CD
His misdeeds are never to be alluded
to. much less described, in his pres
ence; and, lastly, he should be not
iced and encouraged in every way
when he is good and altogether ig-
nored when he is naughty.

VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN

Iowa will soon be called upon to
take her share of the Victory Lib
erty loan. The issue will take the
form of notes running not oyer five
years, and probably bearing higher
rate of interest than previous loans.
These notes, of course, will be obi
cations of the United States govern
ment and offer identically the same
security as the bonds; in fact, there
is hardly more than verbal differ
ence between them.
The new notes will prove very at
tractive to investors and should,
therefore, be far easier to sell than
previous issues. Iowa has made an
enviable record on the four loans so
far offered, and it seems perfectly
safe to assume that the patriotic spir-
it of the people will again respond to
the governments call. The money
asked for has already been expended,
and the store of munitions for which
it largely went had much to do with
the early ending of the war and saw
ed the lives of thousands of Iowa's
bravest sons.
The people were for the war and
favored all expenditures to win it.
Now that it has been brought to a
successful conclusion the debts incur
red must be cheerfully and promptly
met

HOW THE PURITANS
REGULATE CONFLICT

Like King James, the Puritans
disapproved of smoking, and though
men might indulge within doors or
in the fields, they were repeatedly
fined "for drinking tobacco in the
highway" Roland G. Usher says in
his 1.-THE Pilgrims end Their His
tory" Church attendance was
compulsory, but this was no great
hardship in time when no Sunday
work was allowed; one wight was
fined for writing letter on Sun
day, Eat least in the evening some
what too soon" Christmas was
not wholly under the ban. The first
year the whole colony spent Christ
mas at hard labor. The second
year some newcomers on the For
tune refused to go to the fields, say
ing that it ''wente against their con-
science to work on that day" and
being tender of conscience, the lead
ers excused them. When they re-
turned to Plymouth village for lunch
they found these conscientious obJec-
tors to Christmas labor playing
stool-ball and other good English
games in the street, and this public
gaming and reveling" was promptly
stopped. The regulation of young
peoples conduct was very, strict In
1888 law was passed that no man
should propose to girl without the
consent of her parents (if she were
a servnt) her master. The gallants
of Plymouth were wroth, and it be-
came necessary to inflict numerous
for irregular" propos-
ais and acceptances.

When a plumber makes a mistake
he charges twice for it.
When a lawyer makes a mistake it
is just what he wanted, because he
has a chance to try the case all over
again.
When a carpenter makes a mis-
take it's just what he expected.
When a doctor makes mistake he
buries it.
When judge makes mistake il

When an electrician makes mis-
take he blames it on induction, no

JOY, THE BIG MEDICINE"

Happiness lengthens, broadens and
deepens life. And, like the quality
of mercy, to be permanent and nat

should flow freely, first as the re-

appetite, and next because it makes
the persistent will to be glad auto
matte. OF all the "big medicine"
that has ever been brewed in the al
embic of science there is nothing so

You need not fear that retirement

arrange to keep body and brain en-

have no hobbies, cultivate them
hobbies that will interest you out of

golf and gardening; and others that
will give your brain employment in
doors, such as chess, reading, music,
writing and so on. If you thus oc-

Doffner Boys Charged
With Beating Red Cross
Relief and With Forgery

Ray and Ernest Doffner, under ar
rest at Council Bluffs charged with
forgery and obtaining money from
the civilian relief bureau of the Red
Cross, waived preliminary examina-
ton in police court at Council Bluffs
yesterday morning and were held to
the grand jury under 1000 bonds.
Ed Bishop and his sister, Mrs. HI.
Beck, were held for further investi-
CATION under similar bonds in con-
nection with forgeries and obtaining
money under false pretenses from
Mrs. Marcy, local Red Cross worker.
Both the Doffner boys made writ
ten confessions to Assistant County
Attorney Northrup. detailing their
acts and duplicating the others.
They said they had room at the
Woodrow restaurant. They told
how they had worked upon the SYM
pathies of Mrs. Marcy by posing as
soldiers and sharing her sorrow over
the death of her soldier son in
France. They had obtained two
checks from Mrs. Marcy, one for 81
and the other for S.. They thus be-
came acquainted with her signature,
which was later used in their forger-
les:
Bishop was taken to Mrs. Marcy
and introduced as A. Tiarks, and
she was told he was contractor
who was going to take the Doffner
boys to Kansas City to work. He
told her he would advance $50 to
them, but would arrange to take
from it the $l2 they owed her.
Friday. Ernest Doffner came to
her with a 500 check signed by Ii
arks, and she was asked to cash it
by giving her own check for $48.
She grew suspicious and said she
would call up the bank. Doffne-
protested, but said he would go to
the bank with her. They started,
but Doffner made an excuse to meet
her there and slipped away.
Mrs. Beck was brought into the
case in an apparently innocent man.
ner. The Doffners told her they
had a rich aunt, Mrs. Marcy, who
permitted them to write checks, but
that the writing must be in wo-
mans hand.
Upon representation of her broth
er that he knew the statement to
be true, she said she wrote as re-
quested. The number of checks
written has not been stated definite
