Stories and pictures are particular
ly valuable for right suggestions. Not
that every story must have moral,
but rather that good stories invaria-
bly, suggest nobler, lovelier way Of
living, an act of courage, gentle
thoughtfulness, or sustained en-
deavor which at the story's end will
bring its own deserved reward. II
parents only realized how susceptible
children are to such suggestions, that
they could accomplish much by mere
ly presenting the right pictures and
stories, certainly they would examine
more carefully, the books and pictures
placed before them.

tuberculosis Stickers go
Over Strong in Wash

The efforts of the citizens that
worked for the Washington Tubercu-
losis association by selling the little

ing to Mrs. R. C. McCredie, state seal

an energetic campaign throughout

"The response Of the public thru
out the state has been hearty and i'm
mediate" said Mrs. McCredie, "and
shows that year by year the seal is
accomplishing its mission. The re-
duced death rate from tuberculosis in
1923 is evidence of an awakened pub
lie and an effective state wide pro-
gram, and the coming year will see
a consistent and increased effort
thruout the state along these lines,
"On behalf of the officers and di-
rectors of the Washington Tubercu-
losis' association, / wish to extend
to the people of Washington who have
generously supported the sale of Tub
erculosis Christmas Seals, our sin
cere appreciation of their confidence
and to assure them that the campaign
will be pushed in 1925 with renewed
vigor and enthusiasm"

CHILDISH INVITATIONS
Josephine Weyman

"Never mind, nobodyll know" said
mother with smile at Aunt Edith as
abe picked up the biscuit which had
fallen on the perfectly clean kitchen
floor and put it backs on the plate.
aNever mind, nobody know" echoed
little Caroline later, picking up a
ANAL piece of bread from the floor of
the cafe and putting it on the bread
plate.
"That child is born imitator,"
YOU will sometimes hear a parent
saw, and then watch amazedly as mo-
Their or father does or says something
which they certainly would not want
initiated!
All children are natural imitators.
How much harder the parents task
would be if the child did not so UNI
consciously teach himself.
/ know of no other method of SO
easily giving children the right stand
ards of growth and development than
suggestion and example. Here un-
doubtedly lie the fathers and moth
ers' Joy and duty. 1t is for them to
suggest in stories, in pictures, in play
Is well as in their own personal lives,
Just what they wish their children to
be. Let them wish it hard enough,
have faith enough to try hard enough
for it, and, as in the old magic tales,
the wish is bound to become reality!
Have you ever heard kindergart-
ner ask: "What does the Little Pig
do with his two little ears ?"-and
the children eagerly respond, "Why
he listens, he hears, with his two lit
tie ears!"? How much easier, then,
for the teacher to obtain and keep
the attention Of her class.
DR.. Dewey Of Columbia University
tells Of a child who quickly picked up
q dolls dress from the floor: "I'm
not going to teach my child to throw
her clothes on the floor" she said.
So very often the children's play with
their dolls, which to them are so ac-
tually identified with themselves, will
present the opportunity for q sug-
-gestion Of lasting value. "How sorry
Dolly will be to have to sleep in such
. rumpled bed!" or ~ am sure that
Dolly must like the nice way her

CHECKS MUST BE
COLLECTED FIRST
Promises to Pay Through the Bank
Must be Good Before Re-
eeipt Is Given

Commencing January 1, 1925, all
checks and drafts will be accepted
by the county treasurer's office sub
ject to collection only, says County
Treasurer Malcolm McDougal in a
statement this week, and receipts
will not be delivered until sufficient
time has elapsed for the same to
clear. To many this may seem like
very drastic and arbitrary action,
not knowing the reasons therefor.
The law makes but one provision
for the payment of taxes and that is
in cash. Anything else taken, is ac-
cepted at the treasurer's personal
risk. Under our present business me-
thods, about 95 per cent of all obi
cations are paid by check and in the
great majority of instances the
checks are good, but because of the
impossibility of determining at the
time of payment, which are not, it
has been deemed advisable to make
this change.
At the time check or draft is
presented temporary receipt will be
issued, stating that the same has
been received subject to collection,
and that official receipt will be de-
hvered in the regular course Of bus
mess.
A person not knowing, would be
surprised at the number of checks
rendered in payment of taxes, that
are returned unpaid. To my knowl-
edge this office has not, as yet, sus-
tanned loss, but not so very long
ago In one county in this state the
county treasurer accepted check,
issued and delivered the receipt, the
owner sold the property, and when
the check was presented for payment
the account had been closed; the
treasurer suffered the loss.
1t is my desire to operate the Of
flee of the county treasurer efficient.
~, economically and with safety t.
myself; the cooperation Of the public
will materially aid me in so doing.
