YOUR MIND
BY PROF. JOSEPH JASTROW.
And How to Keep 1t Fit

A child may be willing 10 submit, but
refuse to be bulied. No wise parent
or teacher exercises authority for the
sake of being obeyed. 1t may please
your self-esteem to be obeyed, but
you can't use the chiid's submissive
ness to feed your satisfaction There
are lots of occasions when you must
be Obeyed and the trained child gets
to recognize them. There is such
thing as mutual respect in the rela.
ton, and that is the discipline that is
training.
When the child is old enough, it
recognizes the reason for obedience
That is implied even in army disci
pline. which can't afford to be lax in
any respect. The officer can easily
abuse his authority by exercising it
beyond the common purpose. embrac-
ing officer and private, for which it
exists. The right kind of an officer is
respected as we'll as obeyed We obey
the laws readily when we respect
them. Discipline may produce obedi
ence: training induces respect Disci
pine may require punishment; that i,
one of its unavoidable instruments.
but reward is just as essential in the
total process of training. While We
can't separate the two. we do we'll tc
make training the object. and onI,
when necessary use discipline as tn,
means. Once more, the more training
and the less discipline the better.

WORLD FAMOUS STORIES
THE ROSE OF THE ALEXANDRA
BY WASHINGTON IRVING.

Jacinta began to play upon it. Won
! derfully beautiful music came from it
and soon Jacinta's fame spread. The
music of the lutte brought Jacinta
| forth into the world and she and her
watchful aunt toured the continent.
But at the court of Spain Philip v
languished in a state of melancholy.
Music helped him, but finally he in
sisted that he was dead and demanded
TO be buried. No one wanted to do
| this, and yet they dared not disobey
the king. Finally word reached them
of the lonely little minstrel of Alham-
bra and her silver lutte. The queen
dispatched messengers to summon her
TO play for the king.
The good aunt readily reassured
the queen that this beautiful maiden
was indeed the Rose of the Alham-
bra" And the further convinced the
queen that she was of meritorious
though impoverished line. and that
her father had bravely fallen in the
| service of the crown.
Led before the moody monarch.
Jacinta tried her skill to cheer him.
AT first the girl touched her lutte with
faltering hand. but she gained con-
fldence and soon drew forth soft aerial
harmony that scarcely seemed mortal.
At length this marvellous music did re.
vive the king, his eye kindled, and
he leaped down from the bier to call
for sword and buckler. The demon
of melancholy was cast forth: the
would-be dead man was brought to
life
The windows of the death.hung
apartment were thrown open: the
glorious effulgence of Spanish sun
shine burst into the gloomy cham
ber: all eyes sought the lovely en-
chantress, but the lutte had fallen
from her hand, she had sunk upon
the earth, and the next moment was
clasped to the bosom of Ruyz de
Alarcon, the handsome page who had
pledged loyalty to her.
The nuptials of the happy couple
were celebrated soon afterward with
| great splendOr. and the Rose of the
| Alhambra became the ornament and
| delight of the court. RuyZ de Alar-
! con, you see. said that he had not
returned to Jacinta because a proud
| old father had opposed such a mar
riage. Like all young people, this
| couple soon came to an amica BILE
understanding The father was now
| reconciled, for the queen saw to that.
! Besides. the silver lutte possessed a
magic power. and could control the
most stubborn head and hardest
| breast. 1t was later stolen. so IL is
said, by jealous musician. Then
| it passed into other hands ignorant
| of it's powers, and it was melted down
into silver. The strings were trans
ferred to an old Cremona fiddle-that
fiddle, it is said be witched the world
in the hands Of Paganini.

Discipline and Training.

II we could get results by training
without discipline there would be no
use for discipline. No one would put
nasty taste into medicine just to
have it nasty; we just take our medi-
cine, nasty or not, and there's no
harm on occasions in sugar.coating
the pill. But everybody has to learn
to make an effort in the course of do
ing useful work. You don't have to
arrange a course of training in effort.
The teachers job is TO get the child to
try to do its work well. It's fully as
important to teach the child to try
as to do the work. In the early school
grades the children, even if they don't
learn much arithmetic, are learning
to control their minds, to put their
minds on the work. to make an eff
fort and that's important, Arithme
tic is just one of the means of train
ing to try
They learn it in play just as we'll
Work differs from play not that the
one is disagreeable like medicine and
the other agreeable like the sugar
coating, but that the interest in work
follows a somewhat different pattern
pf output and. consequently. of train
ing. To use hard labor as punish
ment may be necessary, but unfortu
nate. Inc 1Qea OF Cnaln gangs Is not
popular. And at the other end. we
give hospital patients occupation as
Il means of bringing back health. The
less we think about discipline and the
more about training the better.
In the course of training a child to
do the many, many things that it
must learn to do to take its place in
the world there is abundant oppor-
tunity to introduce all the discipline
