One house today says:
The Government report was re-
garded as moderately bearish, but
the recent decline of cents or
more discounts the Improvement in
crop conditions of past week or so.
There were sales yesterday of Gulf
hard wheat at further advance in
premiums, with a better inquiry.
Total sales of wheat were close to
100000 bushels with about same
amount of rye. This would indicate
that foreigners are willing to buy
again ait the decline. Weather con-
ditions unfavorable in parts of

No material setback to corn
planting is indicated as result of

DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES LIFE
TAI Ks ON HEART AND HOME

viii say that il is the disciplined
children, the children who have been
taught obedience and consideration
for others andtheir proper place in
the scheme Of things who Will make
happy and prosperous men and
women. 1t is the spoiled, oNerin-
dulged children. who have been
brought up to be autocrats in their
own homes and who believe that
they can run roughshOd over the
world, who are ground to powder
when they come to real grips with
life.
This Is a matter of common
knowledge, and yet so many parents
love their children with such an
obsessing tenderness that they do all
that they can to unfit them for life,
in which the battle is to the strong
and the victory to he figher.
These unwise parents never deny
their children anything. They walk
that their children maY~ride i'll au-
tomobies.. They go shabby that
their children may dress finely.
They work their fingers to the bone
that their children, may be idle. They
never throw any responsibility on
their children. They never teach
their children that they have any
duty to any human being.
They try to make the world bed
Of down for their children and to
protect them from every wind that
blows, and they forget how brief is
childhood and youth, and how short
parents arms. For in a little while
the children are out of the home
nest, and where their mothers and
fathers love is Dowerless to save
them from the common fate. and the
trials and tribulations that every
human being must meet.
1t doesn't help them to have had
parents who have never developed
single muscle in their body or slneW
in their soul. 1t doesn't help the boy
who must begin at the bottom of
the ladder to have been brought uD
to believe that he is the king-pin of
the universe. 1t doesn't help the
boy who must take orders from
boss never to have learned how to
obey 1t doesn't make it easier for
the boy who must dig in and work
meyer to have had any tasks to per-
form 1t doesn't make it easier to
eat poor food and sleep on hard
bed to come from a home in which
your mOInSr always OpeIeu NOul
eggs, and seeded your grapefruit
and turned down your bed for you
so that everything might be Just as
you liked it.
No wonder so many boys and girls
who have health and strength ana
intelligence and who ought to sue
coed drift from job to job, always
failures, never making good They
are the results of the parents handl-
work. They have been made soft
where they should have been made
| strong. They have not been given
| the grit or the courage to fight, and
so life beats them at every turn.
The temptation to spoil and in
dulge children is very great, but the
parents who do 50 work their chill
