Letters to the Editor

To the Editor of The Times:
have watched with interest, the discussion
among your readers relative to Mrs. R. c. Perkins sug
gestion corporal punishment be egslaed against
do believe in brutality and there laws now
against such. But been in homes, and dOutess
so has the editor where johnnie" or MARY" would
ebarass their parents and everybody present by their
acts Reasoning with them was the casting
pearls before swine" but if johnnie" Mary" had
been taken in private and light corporal pun

them to act as common-sense children should.
note that some Of your correspondents support
their argument by quoting the wellknown saying,
Spare the rod and spoil the child, and naming King
Solomon as the author. The not uttered by
King Solomon, O., it IS not recorded in Holy Writ.
But he probably believed in that theory when he said

ton of credit and money beginning
early in 1920.
And there you have it! The chain
of causes: Deflation, fall Of prices,
unemployment, producing political
vindictiveness.
And the worst of it is that neither
labor nor capital has yet clearly seen
the situation. Labor is therefore now
OH the rampage and Is quite likely tc
hang the wrong man to the lamp
post; while capital does nothing ex
cept to demand that nothing be done
When both sides demand and obtain
stable money over half of their diff
culties will disappear.

IF YOU ARE WELL BRED

You know that second weddings
are always very conservative, and
elaborate ceremonies are out of
place.
The woman marrying for the
second time never wears white,
nor does she wear a veil, carry
orange blossoms or have flower
girls or bridesmaids. There are
no elaborate floral decorations.
She may however, have one maid
of honor. If she desires.
