WARNING MESSAGE
 IO HARSH PARENTS
Prof. Vaughan Says Kindness
 Is Essential to Child'S Future

Prof. David D. Vaughan. leader Of Everymans Bible class. spoke yesterday on the effects of harsh ness in later life on little children and warned parents that the child needs kindness and encouragement if it is to have these characteristics when it reaches maturity. In part, Prof, Vaughan said:
 Children need love as plants need sunshine. They are spiritually dWarfcd without it. In correcting children cruel and harsh methods must never be used. Often punish ment is mentally cruel although not physically harsh. Parents forget their own tender minds and impress stonable natures when they were children and so often make serious mistakes.
