TOXIC, February 2S.-The house.
hold department today announced
that Prince Chichibu, heir apparent,
would not return to England to COM
plete his education, as was hitherto
anticipated.
, It was thought best that he remain
in Japan, at least until the accouche-
ment of Empress Nagako. which is
expected in September. Emperor
Hirohito as yet has no male heir,
and until one is born Chichibu will
remain In line for the crown.
If a male heir is born Prince Chi
chibu's responsibility will be some
what lessened. and in that event 1t
is considered possible that the EN-
peror will grant permission to COM
plete his education abroad.

MARY BLAINE has just
u4 reached the perturbing age
OF sixteen. There was a time
when it was called sweet six
teen; but that was back in the
calm times when a Sunday school
picnic was an event and a new
dreas was sufficient to bring
smiles and sunshine that lasted
for days.
But Mary has lived in a whirl
Tor several years. and the longer
she lives the more she whirIs.
Now she has reached the state
where she is either riding on q
wave Of excitement and hilarious
good humor or she is depressed
and gloomy and disolate.
Anything that detracts from
her appearance or interferes with
her popularity is to her the most
atrocious and objectionable thing
that could possibly happen. She
simply can't see beyond the hori-
ION Of her own small problems.
It never occurs to Mary to re-
member that the affairs Of the
other members of the household
are Of Importance. She has never
been required to consider the
wants nor the rights Of other
people. Her thoughts, her plans,
her entire program has centered
around her own immediate needs.
Because she was headstrong

restraint ana dutifulness that

pulses.
Too many parents indulge in
an attitude of easy drifting re-
gard to the conduct Of their chill
dren. Little breaches of behavior
don't seem to matter very much
until it is discovered that the
child has developed a bad habit
or an ugly disposition. When
mother or nurse has yielded to
the clamorous outcry of
youngster about three times, he
decides that clamoring is a very
good weapon.
The time to start implanting
the idea of self-restraint in a child
is infancy. From the very time
that q baby can make his wishes
known. he should be disciplined
which doesn't mean spanked. Az
he grows older he should be re.
qutred to perform certain duties
and definite services; and he
should be made to consider other
peoples comfort and rights.
