Advice to Parents.

A little English girl Catherine Alex
ander, fourteen years old, is the au-
thor of a treatise entitled "How
Parents Can Improve Themselves"
people who are most likely to know
how to bring up children" she says,
'are girls of about thirteen to fifteen.
They are just old enough to see reason
and to understand why it is good to
sometimes make children do what
they do not wish to, and are yet
young enough to know what it is to be
a child, and to know which things a
child likes and understands and which
things it doesn't"
Catherine makes a number of sug-
gestions about not spelling children by
coddling them, about eating and read
ing and about self-restraint in parents.
"Never lose your temper and fly sud-
denly into rage" she advises. 'Your
children only despise you for it and
take no notice of you, and are prob
ably badly Influenced by you
Show your children all your good
qualities; it helps in the end for they
will thus learn from you and will adj
mire and respect you"

Americans Live Longer Now.

The life of an average American has
been heightened by five years since
1909, according to the findings of the
committee on elimination of waste In
industry of the American Engineering
council appointed by Herbert Hoover.
Surveys of sickness, the report shows,
indicate an economic gain to the ma
ton of many millions of dollars
through decreased disability and sick
ness, observes the New York World.
Army figures bear out estimates Of
industrial loss resulting from acct
dents to the eye and defective vision.
OF 2,232 men discharged for physical
reasons by the military authorities in
Brooklyn and Manhattan, 462 were re-
jected because of defective eyes. Eye
conservation, the report argues, has
now become a matter of organized ma
tional concern.
1t is estimated that every day near
ly 100000 people are i'll in the Uni
ted States. tuberculosis is still the
worst communicable disease, though
it's ravages are decreasing. Federal
and state action is included in an
elaborate program suggested to min
imize illness and prolong lives. There
is no reason, it is declared, to believe
that the race is physically advancing,
but that national vitality is increas-
ing, according to the waste investi-
gators Of the council.
