throw himself on the floor and bump
his head in spasm of rage. At four
teen, Lloyd refused to attend school;
at sixteen he was staying out until
eleven every night.

kept from forming bad habits and
must learn obedience.
So when he again reached for the
table-cloth, l said, "No, mol" very
firmly and when he persisted placed
him in his high chair. He cried but

and as soon as the anger faded from
his voice / turned his attention to
something interesting and placed him
ON the floor again. One day had to
repeat this treatment three or four
times in succession. On hearing the
words "No. no." he would lay his
head down and give a pathetic little
wall. Then he would look up and
smile and reach for the table-cloth
again.
But it didn't take long for him to
learn to respect the meaning OF mo,

things out of his reach, and he was
a very happy, lovable child.

which he could "skate" all over the
house almost as fast as man could

It's all a mistake to say that the
congressional campaign, which the
country has just survived, was devoid
of national issues. The issues hadn't
anything to do with politics, but they
were the paramount questions just

center of the stage and the limelight.
They will be talked about long after
today's victors are crowned with
laurels and the days victims headed
