Synonyms for went: walked, ran,

"Got," (which the children should

"Bare," Empty, stripped.
Of course there are many others.
A verse from Stevenson may be
used:
"a child should always say what's

And speak when he is spoken to,
And behave mannerly at table,
At least as far as he is able"
"True:" honest, reliable, good.
Speak" answer, talk, converse,

'sBehave:" act, appear.
"Mannerly:" ladylike, gentlemanly,
graciously, politely.
The little ones enjoy the game and
gain fluency of speech unconsciously.
The older children often rule that the
words which they have used must be
defined, and without using a deriva-
tive of the word. A book of syno-
nyms studied after the game is over
shows them other words which they
might have used.

ENLARGING THE CHILD'S VO-
CARJHARY

Numerous ways are given to en-
large ones vocabulary, but as is the
case in many matters, it is best, in
order that the adult may know many
words, to begin with the child"
If as children we had learned. cas-
lily and naturally, few thousand
words instead of only few hundred,
we should now be able, under most
circumstances, to speak without hes
itation or embarrassment, and there
would be no need ''to enlarge our
vocabulary" by setting ourselves the
stint of learning each day new list
from the dictionary.
Over and over We employ the same
words, trying vainly to express thots
about our various experiences: In
words were worn out by useswe should
soon find ourselves greatly at loss
to carry on our ''every day" CONVEX
sations. When we make bold to use
word now and then that is not worn
threadbare, the blank look of amaze
ment or the sly smile causes us to
feel embarrassed, but if these words
were inherent from childhood we
would not be self-conscious in their
use.
An interesting way for the child
to get a large, practical vocabulary
is thru the Synonym Game. The child
s'wins" who can tell or write the
greatest number of synonyms for
words taken from some familiar
verse, such as:

Sea and Land in Battle

The washing away by the sea Of
land worth millions of dollars on the
coast of New Jersey. pointed to In the
annual report of the United States
coast and geodetic survey. draws at
tention to the battle waged year in
and year out between the sea and
land all over the world. The sea and
land have been foes since the begin
ming of time and. according to some
photographers, these old enemies will
remain such until the last mountain
pinnacle has been washed down and
ground to sand. and the victorious
ocean rolls unbroken around the
world. But whatever may be the out
come millions of years hence, we are
still in the give-and-take era. Many
miles Of land are washed away an
nually; but compromising areas are
built up in other places.-Pathflnde

Manager, Staunchly Sup
ported by Clients

The announcement that the firm
OK Dean, Onativia and Company
will resume business Within few
days is hailed with a great deal OF
pleasure in Washington financial and
invetment circles. The raising OF
the $4,000, 900 required for reorgani-
cation of the firm and resumption
of business is taken as a mark of
confidence in it's management and
business integrity and has been
made possible through the hearty
cooperation of customers ana
friends of the firm. who have re-
sponded in a remarkably generous
manner to the needs of the present
situation.
Clients and friends of Dean, Ona-
tivit & &C. in Washington have
been stanch in their support OF the
local manager of the company, John
Callan OLaughlin, whose indie
fatigible efforts in their interest
have won the highest praise.
Speaking of the coming reorgani-
zation of the company's affairs to-
day, Mr.. O'Laughlin said: "Our Gus.
toners interests have been our CHIEF
concern, their interets are entirely
secure. The firm will now be
stronger than it has ever been.
There is no blemish upon its in
tegrity or its method of doing bust
ness, and expect it to 20 for
ward with even greater success
than it has had in the, past"
1t is now practically certain that
the firm viii resume business with
Q clear and unimpaired capital, and
with the assurance that practically
none of the customers will avail
themselves Of their privilege to draw
cut the remainder of their equities.
