DON'T BE NEGATIVE

oome people are SO negative. By that l mean they don't
90 anything really wrong, but on the other hand they never do
anything remarkably good. One can't find any outstanding
1ault IN their character. Neither can one find any particular
virtue In 1t. There are people who are not really bores to
talk with, but never are they vitality interesting. They never
express a definite opinion or take a definite stand on any
subject.
Such people are negative. They remind one Of a room
IN which the sun never shines, or a dish that is flavorless,
lacking seasoning.
Negative people never shine, never mount, never climb.
What are some of the hall marks of a negative person?
Let us see.
Indifference is her outstanding characteristic. The mega
tive person shows no vim, no enthusiasm, no great interest in
anything.
Fear is another characteristic of the negative person.
Fear always produces inaction. The fearful person is always
afraid to exercise initiative and show originality in any I'M
d~ertaking. She fears criticism and ridicule so she remains
merely negative.
The negative person is apt to be both physically and men,
tally inactive. By nature she is phlegmatic and easy going.
Any more physical exercise than is absolutely necessary
doesn't appeal to her. This is one of the reasons for her men,
tai inactivity. A listless body is apt to harbor a lshess mind.
She knows how to O. her daily task. Why work, or study or
worry about improving her method of doing things. What has
been good enough in the past is good enough for now she
argues. Such is the reasoning of the negative person.
Can't you see how impossible it would be for the mega
tive person to ever accomplish big things in the world.

YOUR BABY AND MINE
The Nervous Child
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED

When a child is getting just the
proper things to eat, and still re-
mains one OF those high strung.
spindllng children, who refuses abb
solutely to put on any TAT, the
mother is very likely to take
refuge in the time worn excuse
that the child is nervous"
True, he may show symptoms
of jumpy nerves, but this is not a
condition arising from nothing, a
visitation from above, as it were;
there is some good reason for 1t,
and it should not be accepted as
incurable, but gone after with the
same zeal as under-nourishment.
In one particular case, just this
sort of child was brought back
quite miraculously by the simple
eXpedient of forcing the child to
take a rest after school, instead of
rushing right out to play. He
was given a light lunch, and then
put in a quiet room with his shoes
off, and no effort made to have
him go to sleep. The mother
read to him, and he rested. He
found he might as well rest, since
no amount of pleading could get
him out before the half hour was
up. The child gained noticeably
the first week OF this regime, and
he had been underweight for

Hurrah For the Halloween Party,

Little ghosts, big ghosts, fat and
thin ones crowded in the gate of
Natalie Clippers back yard, under
two grinning lantern faces on the
night of the Halloween party. They
scrambled for apples on strings;
they clamored around the witch's
den and heard wonderful fortunes.
And you never heard of such good
things as they had to eat. Pump
kin piei!' exclaimed Tom Cut-up
in a happy voice. "And doughnuts
and cider, popcorn, balls, ginger
ate TIL they couldn't hald another
cookies and lollypops!" Everybody
crumb.
They had a parade hat wound
through all the dark roor~s of the
house, rel chairs and under tables,
while you felt icy blasts of air blow
down your neck and you shook
hands with grewsome people you did
not know! In the very darkest at
tic corner, a tall masked spook
jumped out with a scream hat made
their hair stand on end. Finally
Natalie in her owl costume tapped
out and announced it was time to
go home.
OF course, you have guessed that
Marjorie was the ghost in the attic
and have tried her costume on her.
Halloween and the witches party
is over! But the fun won't stop, for
already the Cut-outs are planning
another good stunt.

At last there is joy for the fat

around complaining that nobody
loves him, hat he is therefore con-
foundedly miserable, and that be-
meath his adipose he hides an aching

At all athletic contests he has
been forced to sit on the side lines,
doing nothing moro strenuous than

citation would go SC far as to let him.

occasionallv too. A. fat man always
knows how to order a good dinner,
and isn't afraid to spend his money.
Beautiful girls often have tremen-
dous appetites. SO he did have
sanding OF a kind.
But the recent swimming of the
English channel by men who pur-
posely took on weight, lifts the fat
man right up in the front ranks as
an athlete "of the first water" as
one might say.
1t seems that channel swimmers
have to put on a heavy layer of
flesh in order to Withstand the cold
waves A diet composed OF fats
and sugars and starehes is necessary
for the swimmer. and he has to be-
gin to train many weeks before he
attempts a performance.
We aren't interested in the sport
manship side of the spectacle par
ticularly. But the fact that the fat
man has suddenly emerged into the
limelight as the hero of an adventu-
rous and romantic feat intrigues us.
Now ig he would add Arctic explo-
ration to channel swimming as an
achievement while his weight keeps
up, we American women might in
time emulate the Turk-and like
