A REFRESHING EXPERIENCE

Recently | visited in a home where
there is little daughter of some
seven or eight years of age. When
presented, she made charming
little curtsy and murmured a polite
greeting that reminded me of
scenes from olden books of the
period when knighthood was in
flower"
During the meal and the time
l spent in the home this little lady's
conduct was a gratifying example.
Especially so in this day of AFRO
giant harum-searum children who
have no respect for their parents.
and therefore no respect for any
one else.
And it is gratifying to know that
there are children whose parents
still have that good old-fashioned
method of bringing up children to
he seen and not heard" Most
children are impetuous and emerge
tic. And unless they are properly
controlled these things run away
with them so that they are not
only offensive to others, but are a
tribulation to their parents.
But well-ordered well-mannered
child will be not only a blessing
in the home during their childhood
but will be a credit to their parents
in after years.

Hines of the United States Veter-
ans Bureau.
Director Hines pointed out: "The
act provides that if veteran has
died before making application,
or if entitled to receive adjusted SER
vice pay, has died after making ap
plication, but before he has received
payment, then only the amount of
his adjusted service credit shall be
paid to his dependents, and not the
amount due beneficiaries had an ad-
justed service certificate been issued,
as is the case where veterans file
heir claims. The adjusted service
certificate benefciaries receive the
face value of twenty-year en-
iowment insurance that the amount
Of Che veterans adjusted service
redit would purchase, at the veter-
MS age, if applied as net single
remium, four per cent per annum,
ompounded annually.
Inc amount uue uiluei an au-
listed service certificate exceeds ma
erially the amount of a veterans
djusted service credit, and it is to
he advantage of the veteran to
pply for the benefits of the act
without delay"

olications must be made for this
compensation may be secured at

"HOWDY"

The big blue car, driven by the
big red man with the big black
cigar, hurtled round the turn at q
dizzy clip. The little gray car was
meandering along in the hands of
the little gray man, who glanced
around only in time to shrink from
the menacing radiator and great
windshield sticker which beloved
genially:
"Howdy Half the roads yoursW
Wildly he spun the wheel-but too
late. With a neat, crunching "swish, !"
the big blue car sliced off his rear
wheel, mudguards, and running
boards. The poor remains founder
ed crafty to dusty flop. The little
gray man crept forth, peering after
the rapidly vanishing juggernaut.
Shading his eyes, he made out an
other cordial sticker which Haunted
its Rotary Club message of cheer
from the shining rear window. This,
too, beamed:
"Howdy! Half the roads yours!"
The little gray man pondered as
he surveyed his machine. 1t looked
like busted bird-cage At length
he nodded, treasured.

that ! was just on the wrong half"

EVERY CHILD SHOULD
HAVE WORK TO DO

During the fanatical agitation for
an amendment of the U. S. Con
stitution prohibiting children under
eighteen years of age from work
ing, it is particularly refreshing to
find an authority who contends that
work is good for children.
Angelo Patri, famous teacher of
children, said recently in one of
his syndicated newspaper articles,
children have a right to work.
Work is the road to happiness. With
out it no child may become truly
intelligent, truly useful, truly hap
py."
That this is true is proven by
the fact that most of the great
men of the past and the present
had work to do when they were
children. Some of them were forced
to work because of the stringency
of their circumstances; some of
them worked because their parents
realized it was good for them. But
the fact remains that no truly great
man ever passed thru childhood
without some sort of work to do.
Angelo Patri continues his article
by saying, "The right sort of work
for children is educative ..........
Children have the right to work. 1t
is privilege they seek"
In other words, children have
n lot of growing energy that makes
them restless when they have moth
ing to do. And when they have
nothing to do they are always get
ting into mischief. As long as they
have so much nervous energy it
should be turned into the proper
channels-they should have con-
genial work that will give their
energy an outlet.

PREVENTION rs BETTER
THAN CURE

There is no more appropriate
Christmas decoration for your mail
and gift packages than Red Cross
Seals. Because these seals not only
decorate, but they carry the genuine
Christmas spirit.
The proceeds from the sale of Red
Cross Seals go to the work of pre-
venting tuberculosis. And since this
work has been going on there has
been a gratifying decrease in the
ravages of that disease.
One outstanding item of proven
ton is the eradication of tubercu
lar milk cows. 1t has been proven
that forty per cent of tubercular
children contracted the disease from
cows milk that was infected. And
during last year in New Jersey alone
more than 1000 tubercular COW.
were destroyed in order to prevent
their milk from being used
Christmas Seals only cost you one
cent each, and they are appropriate
decorations for your Christmas
packages. And in addition to that
you are helping others in the Christ
mas Spirit by providing for their
good health.

SQUARING THE CIRCLE

The immortal Socrates was not
ed for his quiet humor. 1t was
his nightly custom to foregather
with circle of philosophers and
geometricians about convivial
bowl, drawing inspiration from the
vintage of Bacchus. Following the
end of the tenth round he would
rise-for it is written that he al
ways could rise-and address the
symposium.
F." | move he would say, ''that
this circle so home and square

And so seriously did the multi
tude take him that the squaring
of the circle grew to be considered
impossible, yea, even unto this day.

1t does not do to become alb

teacher in high school class was
an ardent billiard player in off
hours. One day he said; "Now,
we start with this formula"

vanced to the blackboard, only to
be interrupted by shout of laugh
ter from the class. In his absence
of mind he first chalked the end

VETERAN SUES GOV
: EMINENT AFTER BEING


REHABILITATED
Suit has recently been filed in
Washington asking the Supreme
Court to grant permanent disability
to Dewitt T. Law, of Montana.
Law lost leg and an arm during
the war, and he couldn't return to
his old trade of a common laborer.
But the Veterans Bureau put him
thru Government vocational
school where he learned the legal
profession and received training in
stenography and bookkeeping.
And because he cannot return to
his old profession he is asking that
the Government give him the same
compensation that is given men
who are completely disabled. 1t
seems rather contradiction that
he is asking this permanent dis
ability allowance, and yet in his
capacity as lawyer he appeared
in court to argue his own case.
