The End of Dispute
Paris Expects Italians to Return
to Conference

Paris, May 4.-The Italian delegates
to the peace conference who left Paris
almost abruptly when the members
of the council of four representing
Great Britain, France and the Unit
ed States refused to grant 1talys full
claims to Fiume and the Dalratian
coastal regions have been invited to
come back to Paris and resume their
places in the peace conference.
Paris dispatches assert that by rea-
son of this invitation it is believed the
Italians will return to the French
capital and that the negotiations over
the disputed points will begin again
where they were left off. French
and British diplomats in Rome fol
several days have been discussing the
controversy with Premier Orlando
and Foreign Minister Sonnino in an
endeavor to straighten out the tangle.
The invitation of the council OF

the elimination of the personal ele-

BoIshevism Cannot Last
An Englishman from Moscow

: London, April l Correspondence of

the misfortunes Of the arlstocratle
and bourgeois classes, have lined
their pockets, are now rather lnclln-

mo-" because the child will get his
mind set upon the act and the mo"
will give him shock. This will an
tagonize him.
So the thing to do when your child
asks permission to go to a party or
any other favor of you is to decide
as quickly as possible whether your
answer will be Eyes" or mo-" and
then Immediately give it. 1t may
take you ten seconds or ten minutes
to decide. Be sure that the child has
said all that he has to say before you
reply.
Do not let the child think that
what he says. outside of the facts
and conditions in the case, has much
to do with your decision. Do not
let him run into an argument. In
case you have to make any modifi-
cations of his request in order to
grant 1t, do not discuss them until
after your decision is given, so that
all idea of argument will be avoided.
Some parents make the mistake of
treating a child with Indifference or
even showing their disapproval aft
er reluctantly giving him permission
to do something. This has bad re-
suit Any word of counsel spoken
by the parent in this attitude will
have very little, if any, influence.
The better way is to show the op-
posite, friendly spirit See that the
boy leaves home in a happy mood.
Help him to get ready and tell him
you hope he has fine time and that
you will want to know all about 1T
when he returns.
Do not use the expression, "I guess
you can go this time" implying the
child will probably not be permitted
to go next tine. Do not say, "Ill
see." or, Maybe" because the child
will get to taking this for "Yes" and
he will be disappointed in case it
does not mean "Yes." So always say
either "Yes" or No." or "I will decide
and let you know at 6 o'clock this
evening"" The point is. be decisive.
Your child will soon learn your
policy and he not only will discon-
tinue arguing, but he will be. much
better satisfied, knowing that your
decisions are made deliberately and
that you are on the most friendly
terms with him.
