TONY was lost. He was hope
Il lessly lost. For Tony was at
Coney Island on a hot Sunday in
July when thousands OF people
were crowding the beach and
swarming up and down the sea-
side.
He was a long way from his
own neighborhood. and he was
without a nickel, even II he had
known how to find the subway.
Tony had on an ill-fitting bathing
suit and a pair Of water-soaked
shoes, and he wasn't much big
besides. How on earth he was
ever to get back home he couldn't
see. Naturally he cried. He cried
in great gulps that subsidized into
sobs and then suddenly rose into
q wall.
In the midst of his pitifulest
wall a mother person came along.
as mother persons always do
when a child is~in distress. Tony
stopped crying long enough to
tell her his home address. He had
that down pat. There might be
a lot Of things that poor little
Tony did not know; but he knew
how to tell somebody where he
lived.

they are separated from you.
Take sufficient time and care to
give them a definite ana distinct
idea Of the place designated and
then caution them to come back
there and stay until you come

There are dozens Of small ag-

could be avoided by a. few min

the children. It Is nearly always
the carelessness and the thought
lessness Of the parents when grief
comes to 2 child during a days
outing.
And, strange to relate, the
child usually gets the blame. For
what did Tony's father do when
he found his lost child but draw
back his huge hand and give
Tony sound slap?
"That is what they always do"
said a bystander; whale away
and hit the kid because they
let him get lost"
In the overwrought state which
such an occurrence produces
parents need a vent for their feel
