cuff, so long popular in this
house, also comes in fur. Metal
link fabric, like fine chainn1ail,
forms trimmings which finish
tunics and make short, straight
fIounces.
Embroideries Of beads, strass

the chief forms of trimming for

plary fashion, but the pattern she
cut out for them did not happen to
fit her niece.
Estimable as a parent she failed
as an aunt. She could not under
stand why she should have 10 dis
cuss things with her that her
own children took on faith. Like
wise she failed to appreciate the
fact that she required active move
ment to engage her superfluous
energies wajle her cousins were
content to sit still for hours and
sew.
So this woman, who in most
things has judgment and common
sense, allows her little girl to
have her own way in everything,
fatuously imagining that she is
thus making her happy. If the
furniture gets in her way let 1t
be broken rather than the cnild's
precious initiative be checked.
"Oh, let her be free positive per-
son who does things. rather than

her mother.
Her error lies in not under
standing that her daughter hap
pens to be the kind who does
not need encouragement to as
sert herself, as she inherits the
positive traits suppressed IN her
mother and certain overriding
qualities in her father.
This mother thinks because
greater freedom Of action and OK
preston Of her desires would have
made her happy the same holds
true of her child. Now, 1t is plain
to all who know the youugster,
spoiled, indifferent to the COM
fort Of others, that wise re-
straint is her special need.
If she is never made to realize
that life imposes certain limita-
tons on each for the general
good, she will face the world sadly
unprepared to take her place
In it.

ed by the Gardiner Boys Club, in

sophomores on one hand, and the

see who will get the most applause

A number of pleasing solo voices
have been discovered by the director
Mr.. Haynes, who will b. heard in
Gardiner for the first time on next
Wednesday evening.
The costumes will be purple and
gold in the minstrel first part, with
scenery to match the costumes. The

will look funny to say the least.
