does the woman who keeps her chill
dren headed in the straight and mar
row way without their ever finding
out that they are being gently but
firmly coerced into righteousness.
In olden times any female could
turn out a competent job as
mother, and call it a day. All she
had to do was to produce the young
sters, wash them when they were
dirty, feed them when they were
hungry, spank them when they were
bad, and kiss them when they were
good. That was all there was to it.
If her children grew up strong and
healthy and made decent citizens she.
took great credit to herself as good
mother If they were sickly and died,
she laid all the blame on Providence
which had mysteriously afflicted her,
and it never occurred to her that
she was in any way responsible for
the little graves in the cemetery.
The modern mother has no such
comfort. She is acquainted with the
germ theory, and she knows that her
childrenS lives are in her hands. II
she doesn't see that the baby's milk
is steriliZed and his bottle clean, and
that the older children are kept from
infection, she knows that they may
die because of her neglect and that,
if they do, she is just as much their
murderess as if she had slain them
with her own hands.
Ignorance used to be an alibi for
mother, but it isn't nowadays The
modern mother has to know about
sanitation, and hygiene, and dietetics
and how to give first aid to the in
iured, and how to administer home
treatments all the way from calomel
to Coue, for she can't shunt her duty
Of looking after the health of her
family on the Lord any more. 1t is
up to her to keep them we'll and
look out for their adenoids, and their
tonsils, and their teeth.
If children in the pastswere a prob
lem, their mothers never suspected
it. Bright children and dull ones;
nervous, temperamental children,
and .phlegmatic. ones, were all
brought up according to the same
general rule, on the optimistic the
DRY that they would turn out all
that raising children was q matter of
luck sryhow.
The modern mother knows that
each child is an individual enigma,
with it's own, secret locked in its lit
tie breast, and that she must unrid-
die this if she is to help it to its
finest development. She knows that

DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES LIFE
TALKS ON HEART AND HOME

The t!mid child nust he encouraged.
and the bold one suppressed; that
some children t::ir only be controlled
through !heir affections, ard others
by brute force, and that the method
that works with one child is an utter
failure with another. Not the least
Of her obligations as a mother is
to psyche analyze the little toddlers
at her knee.
In the good old days, children
were obedient to authority, and
looked UP to their parents as oracles.
Mother picked out the girls clothes,
and the girls wore them without pro-
test because they thought that
mother knew best. Mother said when
a girl could put up her hair and be
grown. Mother invited such young
people as she thought proper to the
house, and mother knew when and
where daughters went, and generally
went along with them.
The modern mother has no soft
snap. Her children are the product
of a lawless age, and they snap their
fingers in derision at the very idea
of parental authority. They may
love mother, but they have no idea
of obeying her, or of abating one
jot u little of their personal liberty.
Therefore, the modern mother
must be a diplomat of the first class
in order to control her children. She
must camouflage her object in order
to induce her flapper daughter to
cover her nakedness with a few
more layers of chiffon. She must
learn to dissemble her sufferings I'M
der the torture. of jazz bands, and
to conceal how shocked she is at
many of the things that the younger
generation do, for only by learning
to speak her children's language can
she make them listen to her at all.
The modern mother has to get her
children'S point of view before she
can make them see hers, and it isn't
easy for person who has grown
set in her own opinions to do this
acrobatic feat, as it involves some
grand and lofty tumbling of ideas.
Nevertheless, it must be done, for
mother must go the pace with her
children or else they run away from
! her.
The modern mother cannot rule
her children by brute force. She
must do it by secret influence, by
subtle propaganda, by keeping up
with the times so that they respect
her knowledge of the world; by be-
ing broad-minded, so that they are
willing to abide by her opinions.
1t is strenuous life, that of the
modern mother, But there are mill
lions of women who are meeting its
every requirement, and rearing mod
ern children to be better men and
women we hope, than their fathers
and mothers were.

BILE with Jimmy Skunk. You see,
it was time for them to separate

the little people of the green forest

one reason why Mother Bear had
driven Boxer and Wool Wool away,

She had known that it was time

Perhaps Boxer wouldn't have
