because children always want to

After the dainty dimity dress

rious and repeated offenses, but
are, fortunately, never brought be-
fore court, either because they
escape detection through cunning
or their parents are reluctant to
expose them.
An urgent necessity for cases Of
this kind is a psychological clinic
to which parents can apply for
advice under the protection Of
strict confidence. This would en-
able nervous disorders to be
treated in their earliest stages and
save considerable pain and trouble
In later years.
The attempt to cure children
OF nervousness and other pecu-
liar weaknesses by shouting or
laughing at them and making
them appear foolish cannot be
sufficiently deprecated. Kind
treatment and sympathetic help
is the only treatment of any
value.
Strict and narrow upbringing
may cramp a child's natural in
stincts and force t. into lying.
hypocrisy, stealing and bad COM
pany, and so to open rebellion.
Wrongdoing Is a symptom OF
disease and not in itself heredi-
tary, but children Of bad stock
are more likely to prove crimi-
nal than those Of healthy parent
age.
Improvement In the conditions
Of life in towns will do more
than anything else to turn the
tendencies Of children away from
vice into healthy channels.
HON less young people,
whether they have work or not,
should be able to go into hostels.
Education of the parent and
the child in the problems and
dangers Of life is also an essen
tial to moral health. Spelling and
pamperIng OF the only child, or
the eldest child, or the young
est child, or the petted child,
causes nervous disturbance that
shows itself in disobedience, bad
temper, conceit and eelfishness.
Progress largely epends on
the provision Of greater scope
for medical Psychologists and in
substituting the atmosphere and
methods of the clinic for those OF
court and prison.

TANET Is having the best time
d she has ever had. It all be-
gan with q beautiful doll that
Nell BrinlKley sent her last Christ
mas. No. that's wrong. The be-
ginning Of her interest In sewing
began when she was q tiny child.
for 1t was then that her mother
taught her how to thread q needle
and to sew the seams OF her rag
dolls clothes. Then two years
ago her father bought Janet the
cunningest little sewing machine
One that really sews. He was
pleased that his small daughter
showed some skill with the needle,
and he decided to offer her this
encouragement.
But to so hack to the beautiful
doll. Janet's parents live near
lake In small suburban town Of
New York where the famous ar
fist comes to visit sometimes. So
last Christmas she dressed 3
lovely doll, exactly like g Nell
Brinkley girl, and sent It to
Janet.
After all OF Janet's friends had
seen and admired the gorgeous
doll the little girl decided that the
dolls clothes were entirely too fine
for everyday wear; so she set

A Skin Game

an the word of Eric III. Louw,
" a South African trade COM
missioner, now accredited to the
United States, ostrich farming in
his country has become a skin
game. Bobbed hair and the con-
seouent doom Of large hats for
women, he explains, have made
the birds hide worth more than its
feathers.
