entirely different phrase that is Just as
essential to other mothers to remem-
her constantly is. don't manage the
home to suit the kiddies entirely. Be
tween the first suggestion and the sec
ond admOnition lies a happy medium
of management in a home where there
are children-or where there is an only
child. Strange as it may seem. and
more out of proportion to the correct
balance of home management. an only
child is more apt to run a house than
several children. The number is an
aid to a clear and just vision in such
matters. since each child deserves it's
mead of consideration in the scheme
Of things.
Let us consider the first phrase.
namely. "let the little folk enjoy life."
Some mothers are so continually say
ing don't" to their children that they
are blocked in giving their little selves
expression. They get pent up inside
and life seems bleak. OF course, they
DO not reason it out thus. Instead,
they stand constant restrictions silent
IL for a while and then they have an
outhurst of tempersor an orgy of dis
obedience that startles the parents. Is
1t not just what the older folk would
do under the same conditions? Why

ed things?
Danger Of "Don'ts."
1t is the children that are kept too
quiet and have continual restrictions
that wall them about with a high
hedge of "dont's'' who break away
from parental restraint when they get
older. They think of their parents as
representing a sort of household
tyranny which their age alone can
free them from when they grow up"
They go out totally unprepared to face
life, for it has its own lawful restric-
tions. But these are made to help de-
velopment by hinderinG wrong doing,
rather than being arbitrary rules to
keep You from usurping the rights of
adults. So wise parents avoid ham
pering their little folk by too many
rules and let them appreciate that
they as well as adults have definite
privileges in the household.
1t is when the child recognizes that
the house is run for it that it begins

Think of it!-a really
tdSteleSS castor oil!

Oh THOSE moments of nausea and disgust
when the first sickening odor of the old castor oil
assaulted your nostrs. And that awful taste!
What expedients we used to adopt to DISGUISE
it! We took it in orange juice and lemon Juice.
We took It in coffee We thought up all sorts Of
ingenious methods to camouAage its true nature
But they didn't; work. Nothing could disguise
that taste Nothing was proof against that smell
Taking castor oil in those days was nothing short
OF an act of heroism. And some of us Just weren't
capable Of it. ~.
But all that is changed now Children don't
suffer so any longer. For Squibbs Castor Oil il
not only tasteless, but odorless Also That's :
triumph. for if anything, the old odor seemed
worse than the taste.
And Squibb's Castor Oil remains tasteless and
odorless too. 1t doesn't turn" after you have had
it in your medicine cabinet awhile =
Needless to say. this modern oil retains everv
bit OF its medicinal value. Taking the taste and
odor out hasn't interfered with that!
But then you know how long the name "Squibb"
has stood for purity and efficacy You automatically
expect any Squibb Product to be perfection in
those respects It is safer to accept no substitutes
1t is safer to insist upon Squbb Products At drug
stores everywhere.

BLOCK LEGISLATION
FOR JUVENILE COURT
Differences of Opinion Definitely
Postpone Action Until Next
Congress Session.

Juvenile Court legislation was
definitely relegated to the background
until the next session Of Congress
by decision of the judiciary subcom-
mite of the House District committee
yesterday. Differences of opinion
among several factions have aroused
so much controversy and brought
out conflicting views to such an
extent that it was realized 1t would
be impossible to get action in the
House before Congress adjourns.
The bill introduced by Chairman
Mcleod Of the subcommittee "by
request" and which abolishes the
present court and sets up a "Chil6rens'
Court with two judges, was opposed
at the hearing yesterday by Mrs. E.
r. Kalmbach, representing the
Congress of ParentTeachers AS
sociations. William H. De Lacy.
former judge of the Juvenile Court
for nearly eight years, author of the
Mcleod bill. has been active in
opposition of the rival welfare
commission bill.
Mrs. Kalmbach, in behalf Of her
organization, asked that all Juvenile
Court legislation be postponed until
the December session Of Congress.
The District Commissioners have
notified the committee that they wish
to propose some amendments to the
welfare commission measure which
they originally Endorsed. -

CHICAGO, May 12.-Samuel Brand
Ter, jewelry salesman and member
Of New York firm bearing his
name, reported to the police last
night that he had been robbed of
uncut diamonds valued at 100000
by three young men who accosted
him while eating in a restaurant.
Brandler said he had been visiting
customers and stopped in a restau-
rant in the Ghetto district. There
were half dozen other patrons
and the walters in the place when
the three men entered, he said. They
asked him for his jewels and struck
him over the head when he protested
he had none.
At the Detective Bureau Brandler
pointed out photographs of Eugene
Red Mclaughlin and frankie
Burke as those of two of the robbers.
Mclaughlin was arrested by a po-

to the grand jury and released in

CHICAGO, May 12.--Evidence deal
ing with State pardons and paroles,
obtained in the special crime inves1i-
cation here and in the Statewide
Prison inquiry at Joliet, will be CO.
ordinated at a conference of prosecu-
tors here tomorrow.
In announcing the conference,
Oscar Carlstrom, attorney general,
who is aiding States Attorney Grove
here, declared, I'VE intend to dig to
the very bottom of the pardon and
parole scandal and clean it up.''
I'VE will first properly coordinate
the evidence obtained in both Chicago
and Joliet" he said, land then de-
eide what witnesses we shall call"
Sales To Be Probed.
The conference will be attended by
Mr.. Carlstrom, Mr.. Grove and States
Attorney REIN of Joliet, who is in
charge of the grand jury investigating
the murder of Deputy Warden Klein
by seven escaping convicts last week.
Mr.. Carlstrom and Mr.. Grove al
ready have conferred with Assistant
States Attorney Austin of Joliet on
prison condition evidence which may
be related to the crime situation in
Chicago. After this conference Mr.
Austin said the Joliet grand jury
planned to investigate reports that
prison-made furniture and other
articles were being sold by companies
in which State officials We're interested.
Reports of favors accorded convicts
at the prison 'honor farm" may be
investigated by the Joliet jury this
week, it was indicated. Rumors have
been in circulation that convicts on
the farm have been allowed to leave
at nights, have frequented road
houses, and have appeared on Joliet
streets.
While the jury was hearing testi-
mony of several convicts and minor
prison officials yesterday, search con-
tinued for Charles Duschowski and
James Price, the only uncaptu'ed
members of the seven wht escaped
after killing Deputy Warden Klein.
States Attorney REIN considers the
escape plot knowledge of Nathan
Leopold, jr., one of the slayers of
Bobby Franks, too trivial to take him
eefore the jury. However, the cor
nner's jury investigating Klein's
death has indicated it would like to
question Leopold. who claims. he re-
fused an opportunity to flee with
the convicts.
