as II they were all any woman
could have to recommend her.
All OF us know folks who never
stop correcting those they love.
OF course. we know the old say
ing:
Praise thy friend publicly; re.
Duke him privately"
But do we know how important
1t is?
I'd even go a step further and
say:
Praise thy friend for what he
does we'll. Keep silent on what he
Goes ILL.,"
1t isn't flattery that proves love.
But surely constant fault-finding
almost disproves it.
- 1t is because we have a high
standard for those we love that we
feel disappointed when they fall
below 1t. We want the best from
those we most love. We almost
demand 1t. But how often do we
fail their ideals of us?
1t isn't the mother who Is al
ways crying don't" to her chill
dren who brings them up to have
the finest standard. Nothing mega
tive Is so constructive as the posi-
tive attitude. 1t is by finding the
things children do well and making
them see how important these
may become that the best ideals
evolve.
We all like praise. We all enjoy
the feeling of real accomplish
ment. We want our own
honest approval and that of those
for whom we care. Ye we hold to
a policy of blame and correction
and nagging-and then we wonder
why the love that once kindled at
our glance responds 80 slowly to
the sweetness which has often
proved to be a pot Of cracking
thorns.
Have a high ideal for the man
you love. Hold him to It! But do
this by showing your Joy in his
best-not by stressing his blunders
until he begins awkwardly and
miserably to wonder IL he can ever
do anything to suit you.

THE ACTION so FAR

Hester Bevins. an attractive
girl left an orphan in a small
town, refuses to marry Jerry New

CUBAN PORT REACHED
BY ATLANTIC FLEET;
WILL TRAIN JACkIES

GUANTANAMO, Cuba, Feb. 4.-The
Atlantic Fleet steamed into Guanta-
namo Bay today and anchored off the
naval base that for more than a score
of years has been the winter play
ground and training camp for Yankee
sailormen Here the gobs and their
officers will remain until April, work
ing a bit and having the play that
keeps Jack bright and snappy boy.
None of the sailors had put foot on
land since January 3, when their ships
went TO sea for the annual cruise in
southern waters, until launches came
chugging to shore today. Admiral Hill
ary p. Jones. commander of the fleet,
was waiting aboard his flagship Col
umbia in the harbor when the fighting
craft plowed into the bay from the
Guancanayabo Gulf, $50 miles west
ward, where since Jan. 10 everyone
has been busy with gunnery exercises,
engineering trials and torpedo firing.
The commanders aim to key up
every man to the highest pitch of eff
cheney and fitness will be carried out
here by torpedo practice, spotting, tur-
ret drills and night fire rehearsals
aboard ship. while on shore baseball
and other sports will give the sailors
plenty of recreation.
Every COB is man among men and
men only from now until April. The
station embraces so square miles in
