is a certain s~oothingness about the
fnality to his treatment; he has been
upset. in an irresponsible, capricious
frame Of mind during his naughtiness,
then in a state of suspense as to the
outcome, and the punishment has
settled his uncertainty, there is a
promise that life will run smoothly in
The morning. The hard cry exhausts
the child physically and he is in a
state for rebuilding sleep.
There is another kind of crying to
health. When a child has been just
a little petulant or reluctant to obey,
not naughty enough to be dealt with
severely. the adult sometimes speaks
harshly or finds fault with the child
and insists on exact compliance with
commands. The little one goes to
bed in a bad humor and cries fret
fully. An older child will toss rest
lessly. The sleep is light and unre-
freshing, there is a feeling of some
thing wrong with the world that he
eannOt help or explain. Even If the
Iispleasure incurred does not cause
The child to cry himself to sleep, if
That last event in the day has been
d~isagreeable and no reconciliation has
followed, the unhappy mood colors the
nights dreams.
Evening is not the time for correc-
ton If it can possibly be postponed.
OF course real naughtiness must al
ways be dealt with positively on the
spot by an appropriate consequence.
But a child should never go to sleep
without the forgiveness and sympathy
Of the person who has been com
pell@ to inflict the punishment. Com
fort and love should go with him into
the land of dreams. Often we can
afford to let the correction of little
perversenesses and mischief wait over
for the morning.
One little tired cranky" child re-
fused to put his toys away. The wise
mother said, Mother will do it to-
night and we will talk it all over in
the morning." After breakfast the
heart to heart talk came, he was in
control of himself then and could rea-
son clearly. The conclusion reached
was shown in her final sentence:
Tonight you will put your toys away
because you must take care Of YOUR
OWL property. Mother has the whole
house and you and daddy to look
after" With his mind firmly made
UP and strongly set during the day.
there was 10 further trouble about
the responsibility for cleaning away
the toys.

HUNDRED TRYING OUT

With Captain Eugene Carey, Thune,
Funk, Willadsen and Tommeraasen of
last years championship squad all
back In suits this winter, Coach c. A.
West is looking for a strong basketball
team to represent State college this
season.
Amnog the hundred men trying out
for the various teams is some promis-
ing. material. p. Olchon, a former
Redf1eld man, looks like a good guard
George Thompson, a n all-state mar
from Fort Dodge, Ia. handles the ball
nicely and is a fairly accurate shot.
Thompson is big and will undoubtedly
make a strong bid for a berth on the
team, probably at one of the guard
positions. Carl Bennett, a siocky
little fellow from Fairbault, Mimi,
also chosen as an all state guard from
that state, will also liven up the com
petition for the team. Elger Thune,
a brother of the Thune who played
center on last years team, is another
man of experience. "Gyp" Gilbert,
captain of States 1916 squad, is also
getting in shape for the fray. Art
Johnson. a former Northern Normal
star. and Salisbury and Roberts, CT
football fame, are also out for a job.
All in all it looks as though Coach
West would have a hard time deciding
among the candidates.
States schedule will include all the
best teams In South Dakota, Creighton
university OF Omaha, Wisconsin uni
versity. North Dakota university and
North Dakota Aggies, as we'll as Ham,
line and st. Thomas from Minnesota.
