YOUR CHILD
Can Be Too
COnSiderate
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

BY OLIVE ROblAhAS oARAOIN
There is nothing truer than that
the world takes us at our own
value. The child who always steps
back and allows the Others to ell
bow him out of place will react to
his own behavior and keep sliding
down in the scale of his self
esteem, and eventually the esteem
of others.
He will feel in time, certainly
and surely, that he was born to
take a back seat in the world. He
will obsequiously kow-tow to chill
dren who are his interiors in men
tai and character makeup.
I have seen many well-bred chill
dren who were brought up to con-
slider the feelings of others before
themselves sidestep to allow some
ruthless companion to shove HIM
self into their place. I have come
to the conclusion that one Of the
first things children should be
taught is the gentle art Of stand
ing up for themselves.
Teaches Justice
The creed that I speak Of need
not interfere one whit with gener-
osity. 1t deals more with a fine
sense of justice and in showing a
child that he has as much right to
his own consideration as others.
A certain boy got up a little
summer club for hiking, swimming
and things that boys love to do.
Instantly his close friend con-
ceived the idea of organization
and made himself president. The
first boy did most Of the work. The
second boy got all the honors and
"bossed" things. The first boy,
loyal to fault, allowed it to pass
because" as he explained to his
parents, "Bob'S smart and he can
do things 1 can't do"
But his parents knew better.
James aunt took five little girls
on a picnic in her car. The glory
rather reflected on Jane, who was
instrumental III getting 1t up. Her
mother put up the lunch, provided
robes and swimming suits and
what-not for the children's COM
fort.
Second at Own Party
When it came time to get into
the waiting sedan, Jane expected
the seat of honor beside her aunt.
But there was Betty, already en-
sconced. Jane stayed in back with
the others. Betty pointed out the
places she had been to, all along
the road. Betty knew this and
knew that, Betty cid this and that
and the other thing. 1t was Bet
tvs party. Well-bred Jane never
said a word.
But her aunt was not stupid.
That night she remarked to
James mother, you have taught
Jane everything to make other
people happy, but left her out. It's
high time you were giving her a
lesson in spunk."
