TT WAS Just on the tip of his tongue
to tell her the wonderful dis
- covery he had made during the
past two days when the short drive
was at an end. and there were more
congratulations and hsndshakes and
speeches; and a cake to be cut and
champagne to be drunk, and tele-
grams to be opened. and though
Eva stood beside him most of the
time, everyone else was claiming
her attention and kissing her, un-
conscious of the fart that Philip
was one burning impatience to get
her to himself and tell her that this
was the happiest day of his life
because he knew now that he loved
her-that nobody had ever meant to
him what she meant; that whatever
had gone before, II was all wiped
cut now and forgotten.
But the time dragged on Ieaden

someone took Eva away to change
her frock.
Philip gave huge sigh Of relief
lit was one step on the way at
least. He looked around for an ex-
cuse TO escape from the noisy
throng, but Mr.. Dennison bore down
upon him-Mr. Dennison, who had
drunk quite as much wine as was
good for him, and got hold of Phil
lips hand. and refused to let II 60,

r TITLE children live In a worii
of things, ten-year-olds In q
- world of deeds, adolescents
in a world of people, farmers In
world of soil and animal produce.
And here we have simple but
reliable hint of how quickly to get
into friendly relations with the
one you would approach.
In approaching a little child,
therefore, keep out OF the sphere
of self-consciousness. Deal with
objects, not persons. "Come here,
little boy, and tell me what your
name Is. Such Is a common but
very erroneous way to make ac-
quaintance with a child. Help
noe spin this top" Watch thfs
dolly's eyes come open.r These
suggest the normal way OF en-
trance to the childish mind and
heart
Parents who set their little one
up before social company and have
the innocent consciousness pricked
and stung by remarks about the
personal appearance and behavior
well, heaven forgive them; they
know not what they do.
Pick up a few blocks, spools,
sticks or stones and use them in
characteristics ways in the presence
of child while you talk about
them-not about him--and you
may thus begin at once an affec-
tionate acquaintance.
Jump few turns with the young
scouts, ask about their hikes and
their wild performances, and at
once they are yours, heart and soul.
Drop into a group OF high school
youths and speak their language
about Tom, Dick. Harry Evelyn
and Margaret and you become one
with the happy company.
SO, with the child Of any age. In
terest yourself in his natural pos
session Glorify his personalities.
and you at once fnd the key to hts
heart Quick acquaintance win bo
natural and easy.
But. can 1t not be seen that to
approach a child out OF HIS sphere
or to converse with him about un-
natural situations is to interfere
with the normal growth of his
character II you talk to q three
year-old about his personal appear
ance and his self-conscious be-
havior you draw him out of line of
his highest spiritual progress. IL
you talk to ten-year-old about
hts love affairs and his girls" you
are inviting abnormality. In
stinctively he will shrink from
your acquaintance.
So, also, do many we'll meaning
people literally drive the ffteen-
year-old young love dreamer away
from them by preaching continu-
ally about success and the making
of career. The open door to the
heart and to comradeship is not
here. You might as reasonably
discuss with him the tariff and
civil service reform.
