WHY DO YOU
PLAY?

What purpose does play sub
serve in nature?' INQUIRIES Fl.
Munro Fox in the Forum maga-
zine. us there any reason for
the apparently aimless expendi-
ture of energy by young animals?
The answer to these questions is
that play enables the young ami
mails to learn the full use of their
limbs and of their capabilities.
The only exception to the rule is
afforded by love.play. This is in.
stinctive behavior which aug
ments sexual desire in the serv-
ice of the propagation of the race.
"The play of the young seems
TO be just a. sort OF training in
those actions which will be of
vital Importance to the full grown
animal. That play is a prepara-
tion or training for serious life
activities rather than an outlet
for useless energy is shown by the
fact that the play always initiates
the most serious pursuits of later
life.

NERVE SHOCK
ABSORBER

Tn an era when city nerves are
i constantly Jared by the roar
of traffic, the rush of taxis and
the stress and hustle of getting
there Wherever there may bel,
it is comforting to know that an
easily acquired food acts as a pro-
lection to the nerve forces which
are so constantly besieged.
Ice cream, procured at the cor
ner drug store or at the dessert
counter of a cafeteria. contains
the elements which serve as shock
absorbers for the nerve centers.
Through it's basic materials, milk,
and cream, it supplies to the body
the butter fats and energy pro-
ducing proteins which are burned
up daily in the high pressure OF
city life.

A VERY intelligent mother re-
"A marked a few days ago that
1t hurt her pride exceedingly to be
obliged to admit to her small boy
that she did not know the answer
to some of his startling questions.
''One can't know everything, she

answer SO many times, I don't
know.
II one stops with this reply. 1t
surely is diseouraging to both par,

if the parent uses this reply to en-
courage a child along the road. of
adventuring into research. and
aids him in learning just where to
go for information, 1t may some
times be of far greater value to
him than ready answer.
A child's first means of acquir-
ing knowledge is the asking of
questions. In fact, much of our
information all through life comes
from questioning others. and it is
important that we go to the proper
sources. isn't it?

QUARRELS OF

BY Lucy Lowell.

TlHEY probably were eight or

kids as ever I have seen anywhere. !.
One had the bricky hair and

And the other looked like 4 cherub
stepped out OF Raphael canvas
"a very soiled cherub, with no
clothing toi speak of and his hair
clipped so short that II stood up
like q cap Of plush all over his
head.
This one was entrenched behind
a rubbish barrel OF empty tin cans,
while Reddy crouched back Of
fence where there were plenty Of
loose stones.
The cherub was weeping and
Reddy was Laughing in imnish glee
as they hurled tin cans and stones
at each other, together with names
no child should know.
Being that sort OF person IL
stepped in and asked what the
shooting was all about.
He hit met yelped Reddy. 2S

THEY DO NOT
WORRY

ST i = T.
AS far as we are aware. ami,
mails have no notion of time in
the sense we have. The future
means nothing to them. and for
this they are much happier than
we are. They live for the pres
ent moment only. They have no
fears of what may happen TO
them in days to come-no fear,
then, of death and no yearning
after immortality. Neither do we
suppose that they have any clear
conception of the past. although
they have unconscious memory.
The formation of habits depends
on this. But they don't con-
sciously think over the happy
days of youth gone by, nor brood
over the sorrows of old age.

The Undeserving Husband

"Will you please write an
article about wives who stick to
undeserving husbands?" writes
Marie.
Then she proceeds to explain. in
a letter too long to print in full,
how at 16, she married a man
who never has supported her. and
whom she supported until q few
months ago. Her baby Is a few
months old and she wishes 10

earn a living for both, Her par
ents. with whom she is living. ap-
prove the plan. The husband is
now working anda sending a few
dollars each week for the baby.
Marie does not believe her hus-
hand loves her and is certain she
does not love him.
II can earn twice as much as
my husband /" writes Marie. "As
/ am only Is, / think / owe my
self happiness. He has made my
life Hades. Why shouldn't / get
out for myself and live?"
Only one person can answer the
question you ask. Marie. That
person is you. yourself. And you
will need to think carefully be-
fore coming to a decision.
Now that the baby is here, your
first duty is to him. He needs
father as well as mother-a home,
even IL it is not all it should be.
So much depends on that hus-
band OF yours. Has he merely
been unfortunate in being out Of
employment? Or has he an objec-
ton to working?
Is he kind to you and the baby?
Does he want you with him? He
obviously is trying to support you,
since he is sending a little each
week.
Has the Hades you have en-
dured been altogether of his max
ing? Have you done your part?
Or are you wild with longing for
excitement and the good times
money can buy?
It is unfortunate you married
at sixteen, Marie, dear. before you
understood yourself, men or life.
But having made your bargain,
should you not live up to it if
possible for baby's sake? Give
your husband every chance, try
your best to make him happy be.
