TEA CHING CHILDREN THAT OP'
PORTUNITY LIES WITHIN
THEMSELVES
Ha1en Gregg Green
Gregg Green

Candace was one of those always
look-on-the-dark-sid creatures. Her
small son, Leon, was drawing PIC
lures on his tablet, by her side.
"Loen has ability" she sighed.
"But of course, the poor child will
never have the opportunity to devel-
op it, now that we've lost every
thing"
"Such talk" Aunt Martha scolded.
Candace said nothing, but looked
curious.
'My DEAR, her aunt expostulated,
"opportunity lies within ourselves.
The child is lucky to have to develop
the ability himself, instead of having
everything done for him. Too much
pampering often ruins one."
"Oh," Candace looked surprised,
"I-I never thought of our misfor-
tune in that light. Perhaps it may
prove benefit to Loen."
'Well, it isn't anything to fret
about" Aunt Martha laughed. "And,
Candace, never talk anything but
encouragement to a child. Never! Ii
the young, pliable mind hears only,
He can't in time he will be an I
can't regardless of ability"
"Sure, Mother" Leon piped up,
"when you tell me I can do a thing,
I always do it,"
"See?" smiled Aunt Martha.
"That's the best proof in the world!"
"And wonder why. it took me so
long to see it," said Candace. "I re-
member going to hear a great violin
ist one night. AS soon as he started
to play, he found that his violin had
been stolen and a cheap one substi-
tuted. 4 will show you,' he told the
audience, that the music is not all in
the violin And he played, oh, how
he played! 1t was marvellous That
violinist was desperately poor, but
he became one of the greatest musi-
clans of his day. Well, I guess I've
been pretty blind, and to think had
forgotten that incident! I'll turn
over a new leaf"
And she did. Could any of the rest
of us who have the look-on-the-dark
side spirit be persuaded to turn over
a new leaf, I wonder?

"INSIDE" INFORMATION

A breakfast menu when you have
iver-night guests: Cantaloupes;
waffleS and butter and bacon, maple
syrup, strawberry preserves, or
black berry JAM milk or coffee.
To shorten pattern for small
person, fold tuck in it half way
between the bottom. In cutting,
straighten the seam lines as neces-
sary. If at shorter sleeve is required
than that of the pattern, take tucks
halfway between the elbow and
armseye and halfway between the
elbow and wrist, so that the elbow
always remains in the correct pos
ition. Such alterations must be
carefully fitted to the person before
the material is cut.
Shoes that are too large are a
mis-fit. The foot is not snugly sup
ported. Blisters are often formed,
especially on the heels, and stock
ings are needlessly worn into holes.
Shoes should be correctly and care
fully fitted.
Three little pigs every two years
is satisfactory average for good
sow. 1t would probably meet the
requirements of most farmers and
in the end show the best net profit.
Small or medium weight cabbage
is the most desirable market size.
Heads of pointed cabbage weighing
1 to pounds and heads on Daninsh
and domestic cabbage weighing to
pounds are preferred by receivers.
Milk production per COW increased
materially between 1900 and 1925,
it is estimated by the United States
Department of Agriculture. The in
crease is attributed to the growing
proportion of strictly dairy type
milked and to improve methods of
care and feeding.
Fall-sown oats in most districts
of the South succeed better than the
spring-sown varieties, the most SER
ious obstacle to their production in
this section being occasional loss by
winterkilling, says the United States !
of Agriculture. At the departments |
Arlington Experiment Farm, Ross |
lyn, Va, strains of the Winter Turf |
variety have produced the highest |
average yields.
Cabbage cut when soft or i'm |
mature willis badly, and when dis
played for sale is unattractive. On |
the other hand, cabbage, not har-
vested soon enough becomes over
ripe and necessitates close trim
ming. Throughout the northern |
cabbage section the crop Is usually |
allowed to stand until all of it can
be harvested at one or two cuttings. |
Throughout the South and those
sections supplying the midseason
market, where the ripening often
extends over long period, two or
more cuttings are necessary.
Studies of milk production records
made by the Bureau of Dairy Indus
try have shown that dairy COWS
reach their maximum producing
ability at approximately 51a years
of age and the decline in production
starts at about 101s years.
A German scientist, says the For
est Service of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture found that in open
areas 81 per cent of the water pre-
cipitated in annual rainfall filter
ed into the earth, while forest land
having similar soil and topography
soaked up "a per cent of it. Thus
woodlands on land not needed for
cultivation help prevent floods.

Home Education
BOBBY SEES THE POINT AND
MAKES ONE
Anna L. Newsom

Bobby's father was a travelling
salesman, and was away from home
when the first Father and Sons
banquet was given in Fairview. Bob
by's mother, however, was a MEM
ber of the division of the Methodist
Ladies' Union that served the ban
quet. She secured one of the little
white-and-gold cards that were Civ
en- to all of the boys who were pres
ent telling: "The Kind of Boys We
Like"
One sentence read: "The boy who
is polite to old people," and another
one: "The boy who is never unkind
to animals" and a third: "The boy
who is always ready to help anyone
in need" and so on till ten or twelve
of the things we like in boys were
mentioned. Mrs. Jacksan placed the
card in the space between the glass
and frame of Bobby's mirror, where
he could see it every time he dress
ed or undressed, or combed his hair
whats the idea, Mother? What
have I been doing now?" This Bob
by asked at breakfast the next NOR
ming.
Nothing that 1 know of, Son.
Why?"
well, I saw another sermonette
stuck up on my dresser glass;" said
Bobby, trying to put note of con-
tempt into a voice that would not
register contempt.
Nothing of the kind" said his
mother, "I only though that as long
as you did not have an opportunity
to go to the banquet, you would like
to have one of the cards the other
boys received to remind you of the
things people like to see in boys. 1t
is not always easy to do the thing
that is kindest and most courteous
and that will. in the end, bring us
happiness as well as friends. You do
want it just as reminder, don't
your"
20, yes, I guess so," answered
Bobby, trying to conceal a grin.
Mrs. Jackson did not take the
Mothers Home Magazine" but
Bobby saw sopy at the house of a
neighbor, and after reading some
thing that seemed to interest him, he
asked Mrs. Waller if he could bor-
row it for a few days. She gladly
gave her consent.
The. next evening when Mrs. Jack
son went into her room to go to
bed, there was the magazine, sus-
pended by a string from a pin in
the moulding, so that the page Bob
by wished her to see was between
her and her mirror She took the
magazine down and read the article
through. The title was: "Seven Sins
Against Childhood"
The next morning at breakfast,
Mrs. Jackson asked, what have I
done now?" and Bobby sheepishly
answered, "I don't know. Why?"
'TWell, saw another sermonette
in front of my dresser last night. I
see the point, Son, and realize that 1,
too, make mistakes, but from now
on, let's not think of anything that
may help us as a sermonette. Let's
try in every way to help each other
to avoid the things that are unlove-
", and to strive for the things that
are fine and wholesome"
"All right, Mother" promised
Bobby soberly.

Der whether it was in Grandfather's Slip
