Guiding Your Child
OUT OF THE FRYING Fan
Dy Mrs. AeAqs LyAe

When Peter was born his fathers
pride in his son knew no
bounds. From the very beginning he
encouraged in him every masculine
trait
The father himself had had =
difficult time being hard and mas
culine enough to buck q predatory
world. In the war he had been
squeamish about the use Of his bay
onet. He had suffered from compass
sion for his enemies and fear for
himself. He was resolved that his
son should not suffer n he had
frem sensitiveness and fear.
In consequence of his fathers
training certain excellent traits we're
well developed in Peter by the time
he was four. He was afraid of MOTH
ing. He would knock down \ boy
half q head taller than himself If
he was being bullied. He bore pain
without fltnching. Certainly he was
able to take care of himself in pro-
per herman style.
But there were other traits, too.
When it was decided by his parents
that his pet rabbits had become .
nuisance and would have to be kill
cd. Peter stood by and watched the
execution OF his former pets with
perfect poise and intense fascina-
ton. Later he ate his share of rab-
bit stew with good appetite.
"Fine." said his father. "There'.l
never be anything namby- PANTY
and neurotic about him!"
Next door lived q small boy Of
Peters age. He was much smaller
and had not halt. his strength and
vitality. In their play together Peter
never lost an opportunity to brow
Feat ana bully the little fellow. The
climax of brutality came when Peter
inveigled him into letting him tight
en- a monkey wrench around his
arm. The more he cried with pain
the tighter Peter screwed tho
wrench, until the little one was re-
duced to screaming agony and his
mother came to the rescue.
In his effort to make Of his con
the aggressive and hard-botled man
he wished that he himself had been.
Peters father Is instilling q degree
Of cruelty and insensibility to the
feelings Of others that can only re-
Ault In his being an ugly and unlov-
able personality.
In training our children let us be
always on guard lest We allow the
troubles Of our own youth to warp
our vision OF what IL best for the

Health Hints
By DIR. MORRIS FlSHBElN
Editor journal Of the American
Medical Association and OF Hy.


With the coming Of cold weather
householders use more gas for heat
Ing purposes and decrease ventila-
ton by closing doors and windows.
As result there begin to develop
increasing numbers of cases of poi
soning from carbon monoxide,
which is the same dangerous poi
son that occurs In automobile ex-
haust gas.
So many cases are reported
each year that the Department OF
Commerce has issued q bulletin
warning people against breathing
the fumes produced by improperly
adjusted or poorly constructed
heating appliances.
symptoms
1t is not uncommon for people
to blame their symptoms. such a.
languor. headache and nausea, on
automobile gases coming from the
street, not realizing that the gas
range operating In tho kitchen Of
small apartments. particularly Of
kitchenet apartments. may pro-
vide a sufficient amount of carbon
monoxide gas to cause dangerous
symptoms.
In one case Investigated at the
Pittsburgh Experiment Station OF
the Bureau Of Mines, 1t was found
that the street air coming into the
apartment contained less than five
parts carbon monoxide for each
million parts OF air, an amount in
sufficient to produce any symp-
toms.
On the other hand, when the
gas range of the four-room apart
ment was used for cooking. the
air eighteen inches above the
range was over 700 parts for each
million parts Of air.
That amount Of carbon monox-
ide will cause headache in an hour
with more severe symptoms aftei
longer exposure. The opening Of
a window and proper adjustment,
OF the burners is usually sufficient
to prevent danger from thi.
source.
Air Outlets
1t must be remembered that il
many kitchenet apartments, the
room Is not provided with direc1
outlets to the open air and tha
the hazard may be considerable.
On the side OF safety 1t IL wei

When Rusty the Fox Squirrel

Forest, he headed straight south. He
intended to make long journey.
That is, he intended to make wha;
would be a long journey for little
fellow like him. He intended to
keep going until he found a place
where food was plentiful. Presently
Rusty came to the edge of the
Green Forest. Before him stretched
the Green Meadows. Rusty didn't
Xix the looks of the Green Meadows.
He didn't like the idea Of crossing
them. You see, while he feels very
much at home on the ground, he
wants trees very near at hand, and
On the Green Meadows there We're

went Rusty the Fox Squirrel bound =
ing along as a Squirrel does. When
he started there wasn't any enemy
in sight. but he was only about
two-thlrds across when Redtail the
Hawk came sailing over the Green
Meadows. He saw Rusty long before
Rusty saw him. When Rusty did see
him. Redtail was coming fast.
Rusty's heart almost stopped beat
ing. What should he do? Just ahead
of him was an old fence. Some
bushes were growing along that Old
fence. II he could once reach those
bushes perhaps ne could find a
place of safety. You should have
seen him run then, And YOU should
have seen Redtail fly, He saw where
Rusty was heading and he meant 10

The wind whistlcd through the

for Rusty. But Rusty had reached
the bushes just in time. They didn't
give him a great deal of protection
but they gave him enough. Try as
re would. Redtail couldn't catcl
him. After trying few times, Red
tail flew to the top of tall tire,
some distance away. From there h'
could watch Rusty and he doubted
if Rusty could see him.
