be the final appearance of the

Basketball League race, though
Washington is booked for two
games at Detroit on this visit.
The Cleveland club, protesting
against the refusal of the Detroit
owners to strengthen the team, has
obtained permission from President
Carr to cancel Thursdays game
scheduled for Cleveland. 1t was
argued that Detroit would not
furnish the Cleveland quintet with
enough competition to draw spec

The end came in the second
round and the official time was
80, which is just a trifle
faster than the writer can swim
100 yards: not by more than a
minute or so. anyhow.
Yes, the one-shot man had called
another bulls-eye and now he stands
in the light of a new day as the
most plausible of the contenders for
'Gene Tunney's title. But they must
ask one more question of him.
They will ask him whether he can
beat Jack Sharkey and his repIy
will be rendered some time before
February /, when Humbert Fug'
azy's option, on Sharkey expires.
Fugazy said today he planned to
send Delaney in with Sharkey at

loses money thereby. He lost money

But Delaney surely looked the

She'll take him for better, she'll

She's faithful, deceitful, keen

cast a man down: she'll crown

YOUTH VS.. OLD AGE

Young people in these days, Of
ten look with disdain upon the
manners and ideas Of the older
folks. To brand a thing as cold
fashioned" is to them sufficient
reason for discarding it, and to
have to follow an out-of-date Gus
tom is to them cause for serious
regret.
Rarely is anyone justified in be-
ing ashamed of his parents. Altho
their dispositions may not be
agreeable, and they may do unwise
or unjust things, yet they are our
parents, and we should honor
them. It is only narrow minds
and selfish hearts that have no toll
Grafton for the hobbies and pet
ideas of others. So let us remem-
Der that some day we shall be
aged, if we live long enough, and
very likely shall be found clinging
to our habits of today quite stub
bornly, and we shall be deeply
hurt if sneers or laughter meet
our remarks and movements.
Nevertheless, perhaps there is
some reason for the attitude of
youth toward age. It may be that
older persons hold too fondly to
the long-ago, especially to its

of her antiquated fashion of dress
This girl did not scott at old styles
nor ridicule her mothers appear
ance, as some girls do, for she
dearly loved her mother, and
besides she knew that would de-

break down her mothers prejudice
against modern foolishness" was
carried on with the most tactful
persuasion-such as mothers may
well take to heart if they would
hold the confidence of their child

her mother little presents of dain-
ty neckwear, stylish handbag,
nifty" toilet articles and so forth.
She often remarked upon the mod
ish appearance of her chum's mo-
ther, and in numerous ways effect
ed a gradual change in her moth
er's opinion. One day Mary found
an old magazine with a story ex-
actly suiting the situation. She
read it to her and completed the
revolution in her position regard
ing present-day methods. It was
about a good and loving mother
who allowed her daughter to out
grow her, resulting in tragic loss
of confidence. ~. q
A year later, rummaging thru
a closet where there was some
cast-off clothing, the mother found
a dress she had once worn. She
tried it on to see if she had grown
stouter. 1t fastened easily and
she went and stood before the
mirror. "Why Mary!" she gasped,

on her face, "did I look like this ?"

"My mother would call it fun!"
I knew at once that this girl
had the right kind Of mother. I
read it in the smile which lit up
her face as she mentioned that
mother.
Why should our children fear
us? If we are real chums with
them, they will not do so. I have
seen children frightened because
they tore their clothes getting
blackberries. What would their
mothers say when they reached
home. r. ..~.[ 1872 .... f.
If those mothers had been sens

had ever picked blackberries them

old overalls. No mother with a
grain of sense will scold children
for what they cannot help. Clothes
must get worn and torn. It is so
absurd to make child afraid,
just because she has torn her
dress.
A child who is scolded for torn
dress will seldom tell Of a slight
tear, and it is liable to get worse
because it was not mended at once.
Later on, if that girl has a sor-
row, she is not likely to go to her
mother in her grief. Why should
she turn to her who from earliest
infancy has been person to fear ?
It is inconsistent to expect a child
to fear and love you at the same
time; for perfect love knoweth no
fear.
When my little girl tears any
thing, she tells me at once. We Of
ten laugh over the way it got
torn, then we see how it can be
manded.
Sometimes, thru force of circum-
stances, our children have to leave
us. It may be that they have a
living to make. We shall dread
their going much less if we have
brought them up by love instead
of fear. We shall feel that they
will always write and tell us ev-
erything. Alas! how many child.
rem leave their parents without &
line, year after year!
Let US try to understand ou1
children, by going back in on,
memory to what we once were. Re.
membering this, we shall realize
that the best, indeed the only
way, to bring up a child is by
love-the love that knoweth ne
fear.

THE YEARS BETWEEN
By C. w. Banner, NJ. D.
Member Gorgas Memorial Institute

That thousands and thousands
of children in "the years between
are actually neglected will sur.
prise many parents because of the
fact that children are receiving
more attention than in any era
in our history.
Before birth the mother is given
attention and care. The family
doctor with periodic examinations,
keeps himself informed as to her
condition. After the baby is born
the doctor and nurse continue their
watchfulness for several months
or more, until the little stranger
is well started in healful life.
This usually lasts for about a
year, when much of this watchful
care seems to relax and many chill
dren are neglected until they ar
rive at the school age, when they
are examined again, by the school
physician. If defects of tonsils,
teeth, heart or lungs are found he
notifies the parents to take the
youngster to their family physi-
clan.
What l am trying to do in this
article is to call your attention TO
"those years between" between
one and six when our watchfulness
seems to relax in so many cases.
It is in this period that the SEEM
ing trivial indispositions Of the
child are dismissed, with little at
tention, because it is thought to be
caused by something the child has
eaten. A dose Of purgative may
be given or the indisposition is
attributed to cutting teeth which

'tI1l tell your mother" is a
threat used by the eldest daughter
to her brothers and sisters or by
one girl to another. s.I1l report to
your mother" is the sterner way
in which teachers voice The same
idea.
Only the other day I saw a
group Of children playing quite
harmlessly together. Their play
was certainly innocent enough,
with just that spice of mischief
in it which makes our children
real children.
Suddenly one girl exclaimed,
"Oh, my brother has seen me.
I'll have to go or he'll tell my
mother"

measles, whooping cough, scarlet
fever and diphtheria.
Let's get away from the idea
that every fever you detect in
your child is due to something
that he has eaten and only needs
a physic for correction, or that any
abnormalty, noted, will soon he
outgrown. Do not guess about such
things. Expert advice is needed -
save your child from some perma-
nent injury and yourself a lifelong
regret from having neglected what
seemed to you a trivial ailment.
