MY FAVORITE STORIES
By Irwin S. Cobb


We are always hearing stories OF the be-
havior of young husbands upon the births Of
their first children. heard one the other
day which had the merit of being true. A
witness who was present at the time and
place told it to me.
In California town is an old family ply
stefan with rather caustic wit. He was in
attendance at the confinement Of a lady
whom we will call Mrs. A, wife of year,
There we're no complications; the affair was
progressing as well as might reasonably be
expected
But the husband was in distressful state.
While sympathetic friends endeavored vainly
to calm him he walked the floor of the room
adjoining the sick room. At frequent inter-
walls he beat upon the connecting door, and
from those within pleaded for assurance that
all was going we'll Yet the answers, while
consoling, did not avail to soothe his agita-
tion What the midwife told him only
seemed to harass him the more. Messages of
cheer from the trained nurse were received
by him with choked grooming sounds.
Finally he called through the keyhole that
he must have a word personally with the Of
fciating practitioner. The old gentleman
came forth.
Doctor" exclaimed the suffering young
man, 1--WE been waiting for hours now. l
can't stand this terrible suspense any longer.
Doctor, for my own sake, please tell me what
the prospects are?"
"Well, son." said the doctor, ~ can only
say this to you I've been bringing babies
into the world for forty-odd years now-and
1 never lost father yet"

TO AVERT NERVOUSNESS.
BY H. Addington Bruce
Y you who would have your child grow up
Y free from the blight of nervousness
y keep we'll in mind these few facts

you who would nave your cnlld grow up
| Y free from the blight of nervousness
| y keep we'll in mind these few facts:
The undernourished are peculiarly liable to
suffer from nervousness. And the undernour-
ished are not merely the underfed.
AS often as not they are the wrongly fed.
No matter how appetizing food may be, if it is
selected without reference to its intrinsic nu-
tritional value undernourishment to a serious
degree may follow.
So learn from good diet-book what foods
really are best for your growing child, and try
to provide those foods. Moreover, resist his
Establishments for foods-such as meats, pas
try, cake, candy-which he may crave, but
which, eaten to any excess even by adults, are
directly contributory to nervousness.
And, carefully dieting your child, be equal
ly careful to promote his muscular develop
ment through suitable exercise.
| The weak-muscled almost inevitably tend to
| be nervous. More than one specialist in nerV-
GUS troubles has suggested that perhaps the
greater liability of women to nervousness as
| compared with men is due at least partly to
the fact that girls, as rule, are given less OPP
portunity than boys for muscular develop
ment.
| Girls games, too usually afford them less
psychic hardening than the games played by
| boys. Happily this promises to hold less true
| in the future, for girls are more and more en-
gaging in games formerly monopolized by
boys.
And while their participation in such games
may mean some decentralization there surely
will result a greater gain in increased Vlgor
and increased restivitiy to nervous stress Bet
ter far a woman of some mascuhn1ty than
neurotic weakling.
Hence give your child, whether boy or girl,
freedom to romp and play in the open with
other children of both sexes. Nay, insist that
your child thus play, for it means much more
than physical exercise and growth.
1t also means development in social adapta-
bility of paramount Importance in the avert
ing of nervousness. The child who does not
learn, through play with other children, to
subordinate self to social purposes, to deal
with people on a basis of mutual give-and-
take, is virtually foredoomed to the misery of
neurotcism in later years.
For the same reason-prevention of over
development of the self-regarding instinct-it
is indispensable for you through example as
through precept, to cultivate your -childs
sense of duty.
Cause him to perceive, through your atti-
tude to your work and to your community,
that every one is required to give as we'll as
get to do as well as enjoy. Cause him to feel
that service outweighs self-gratifcation, that
accomplishing is one of life's chief ends one

Plain Tales From Dix;e's and
Georgia achievements

r FOLDING the mirror up to a regions
IL attsinnsnts was never performed
more effectively than by the Manu-
faeturers Record in 1.-THE Blue Book of
Southern Progress" for 1928. If there
Sometimes has been too much rhetoric over
the doings of Dixie, there certainly has not
been enough Of research and information.
What the orator can imagine, as touching
her talents will fall far short of what the
statistieian and historian can discover.
Georgians, like Southerners all, are pro-
verbally leal to their sunny land; but do
they gather as they should the undergirding
reasons for their faith? The patriotism that
works best is that which thinks most; and
the BLUE Book of Southern Progress be-
cause of its thought-quickening stores of
knowledge, will make better citizens Of
those who read it.
In no spirit of provincialism or puffed-up
pride Is this story of achievement told. but
with gratitude and with keen sense of the
great obligations that go with great oppor-
tunities. Said distinguished Pennsylvania
years ago, 1.-THE development of the South
means the enrichment of the nation" History
has confirmed and enlarged the truth of his
saying, in that today the South not only en-
riches but also inspires the nation, For
surely every American takes courage and
pride in the fact that part of the common
country which only generation ago labored
now has a vast deal more of industrial in
vestment and of agricultural output than
the entire Union had in 1880, and also spends
vast deal more on public improvements
and education. I'm nearly all lines Of
human progress" says the Blue Book, ina
terial and educational, the South today with
away ahead of the United States in 1880
with fifty million inhabitants
In cotton mills the South now has in
vested five times as much capital as did the
whole country four decades ago, and four
billions more in manufactures in general.
In production of pig iron she approx
mately equals the national output of 1880,
and more than doubles it in production of
coal. Her agricultural products last year
represented value of five billion two hun
dred and ninety-one million dollars, as
against the national aggregate two billion
two hundred and twelve million in 1880
The resources of her national banks in
creased from seven hundred and five million
dollars in 1900 to four billion eighty-three
mflfion in 1922; while the deposits of her
state and national banks and trust compa-

SYMPATHY
BY BERTON bradley


TM not a Polly-Anna bird,
1 cannot sing my woes away;
- And when misfortune has occurred,
My heart is very far from gay.
I'll grumble when my luck goes pow"
And doubtless be sour-faced elf,
But can tell you anyhow,
u l won't be sorry for myself.
[ will not always wear smile,
I'll sometimes whimper at my woes;
I'll often groan in tragic style
And wipe my eyes and blow my nose;
I can't be ever full of cheer
Or lay my troubles on the shelf,
But this swear with tongue sincere,
l won't be sorry for myself.
I will not tell myself that
Am most unfortunate of men,
Though l may fret and stew and sigh
And lose my courage now and then
Though in despair I'm caught and
swirled,
Losing my friends, my peace. my
pelf,
Still, this I'll tell the cock-eyed world;
1 won't be sorry for myself!
