that it must have been run over. Rude
Roberts, the young mans father, was
notified and the body was carried to

DISPUTES
BY Mary T.. Dozier.

BY Mary f. Dozier.
1t all happened one day between the
little folk in the kindergarten room.
but it set the older folk to thinking.
kindergarten had not yet started,
and Tim, a little fellow of three and a
half walked over and took the oak
chair that Clifton, aged five and a half,
had placed beside the table for work.
When Clifton realized what had hap
pened, a tug of war began, and the
two children were soon joined by
others, most Of them to aid little Tim.
The kindergarten teacher stopped
what she vas doing and gave her at
tention to the group and, although she
might have stepped ove and put an
end to the struggle, she only stood by
and watched.
1t looked as though the trouble
would never end, and as though some
one might be hurt, but still she did
not interfere: she only looked on.
ready, however, to take a hand if 1t
became necessary.
At last one or the Older boys was
called to help. He studied the situ-
alton, observed that the fuss vas over
an oak chair. and that there was one
more oak chair in the room; he solved
the problem Of offering the vacant
chair to little Tim, and all was settled
to every ones satisfaction. The teacher
heaved a sigh Of relief and gave a
smile of approval; 1t was a step in the
children's development. one well worth
while.
Why can't children settle more of
their own disputes? Isn't 1t because
we interfere too soon instead OF Civ
ing them a chance to work out their
problems for themselves?
The same little Tim of the chair
episode had a habit OF shaping chill

dren when he became excited. He
times had an unfortunate way of ex-
pressing his fr~iendliness, and although
the teacher understood his really af-
fectionate nature, the children of four
-lapS resented them.
one day Tim slapped a child who
rctaliated, and several blows ensued
before the teacher observed the affair.
Tim received one slap too many, and
he began to weep and back away. The
teacher stepped in just then and re-
marked, IF little boys hit people, PEG.
pie will hit back at them, sometimes
II was interesting to watch the change
Of expression on Tins face, and also
to observe how his treatment of his
playmates improved in the days fol-
lowing the affair.
A child psychologist recently made
this remark, II wonder if we are not
having so many lawsuits today, es-
pecially contests over wills, because
the children were not allowed to settle
their disputes in the back yard"
Isn't there food for thought in that
remark? OF course We are not to al
low the seven-year-old brother to take
everything from the three-year-old sis
ter; he may need some reasoning just
there, but when children are not too
unfairly matched. isn't it wise to give
them a chance to thresh out the mat
Ter without always an interference
from their elders?
There are undoubtedly many times
when the grown-up must use his judg-
ment for the physical, as we'll as the
moral, well-being of the child, but still
! plead that we first give children a
chance to settle their own disputes.

desires. 1t does however, prevent him
from using any forcible method to stop
another man from taking his place
