YOUR CHILD
Don't Regard
as Chattel
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

A certain doctor rebuked a mother
who had selfishly Communicated her
sons every free moment, by the
sharp words, Excuse me, madam,
but you know you don't own your
boy"
What he meant was, of course,
that no human being can regard
another human being as a chattel
In this case there had been trou-
BILE. The son, a generously inclined
boy had been continuously deprived
of every second of free time for
years.
AS he grew older his mothers
demands had grown accordingly I'M
til in every truth he couldn't call his
soul his own.
Then finally had come rebellion.
His mothers bossing then allied it
self with scolding and threats. What
he had given willingly at first she
obtained now by more strenuous
methods.
One day when he had been given
a prize of SIS for a composition in a
contest at school and proudly an
nounced that he was going to buy
a long coveted fountain pen with it,
she took the money. Then trouble
started in earnest. The case became
complicated.
And it was in answer to the
mothers statement, Hes my boy
and I shall do as I please with him, F"
that a member of the school board,
a doctor, made the above state
ment.
If a parent takes the attitude
that everything a child does, every
thought he thinks, every breath he
takes, and every object hc owns be-
longs to his parents, there is prob
ably no law in the land to dispute
it.
But morally 1t is wrong.
He has time for school, and time
for chores, and time for his study
ing. He still should have a few
minutes a day to live for himself.
He has a right to that. Everybody
has a right to that.
NOL only lIldL DuI llC olIOu4Q l4dFC
rights of possession. Certain things
should be his sacred property. That
money morally belonged to the boy.
The mother actually did not need it.
Some mothers dread the moment
when their children achieve in
dependence and start to think and
act for themselves. Perhaps that
is accountable for just such in
stances as this.
1t probably is caused primarily
by mistaken mother love that tries
to keep her baby" on into maturity.
She will sacrifice his happiness to
do it.
Children must have supervision.
They must have certain laws to
live by, and certain obligations to
live up to. But their lives are their
own. Neither age, custom, nor SEN
timent should cause us to lose sight
of that.

Once more women are told that
their habit of smoking is running
their beauty. This time it is said
by DR.. Herbert Schlink, Australian
surgeon, attending a clinical con-
gress here. He also included the
fact that women were running their
health by smoking. The last half
will be a mere incidental as far as
the smoking girls are concerned. But
the first will give them pause It's
one thing to hesitate for health;
another to hesitate for beauty's
sweet sake.

Mint Work

The evil of women working at
night is pointed out by women's
bureau of the United States labor
department which advocates legisla-
ton forbidding the employment of
women at night in any state. The
National Womans Party protests, of
course, just as it always protests
any proposed legislation discrimi-
mating between men and women.
The party believes that such legisla-
ton limits women's opportunities as
wage learners.

Humble Beginning of
Yorks Great Minister

York minister, erected 1900 years
ago, owes its conception to the pas
sion of an early English king. 1t was
Edwin, the king of Northumbria,
whose ardent love for a Christian
princess caused him to erect the first
minister. Edwin was a pagan then,
and Eadbald, king of Kent, refused
TO sanction a marriage between his
sister Ethelburga and Edwin, hold
ing it unlawful for a Christian maid
en- to be wed to pagan. However,
Edwin's love for the princess ruled
his every action and he resolved to
become a Christian. History records
that they were married while Edwin
was still a pagan. Bishop Paulinus,
who held great sway at Eadbald's
court, did not hide his disapproval of
the match, but he was a wise man,
and instead of wasting time in idle
words he set about the task, with the
aid of the new queen, of converting
Edwin. On Easter day, 627, Edwin
was baptized in a small wooden
church called st. Peter the Apostle,
and this was the first minister Of
York The primitive structure was
later enclosed in stone building at
Edwin's request, but before 1t was
completed, the convert was assassi-
mated by Oswald, who became his
successor. A Norman cathedral, years
after, marked the spot where the first
minister stood, and where the pres
ent great minister now stands.-Lon-

Eminent Domain

Eminent domain is the right Of a
government to take private property
for public uses without the owners
permission, provided just compensa-
ton is given. In this manner land is
obtained for parks, post offices, forts
and sites used for other public pur-
poses. Governments often confer the
right of eminent domain on railroad,
telephone and other private companies
engaged in callings generally regard
ed as essential to the public welfare.
Eminent domain is based on the prin-

Tough job for Mr.. Fish

The palm for sacrlficial parenthood
should go to certain species of cat
fish. Although the male of this spe-
cies (Arlus-Galeichthys) is so con-
structed that he needs an unusually
large amount Of food and though he
has the accompanying voracious ap-
petite to satisfy it, he fills his mouth
with the eggs laid by his mate and
carries them until the eggs are
Matched. The eggs of this species are
unusually large, too, says a scientist
writing In the Forum, some of them
measuring II to IS mlllimeters in d.
ameter, so for a fish that reaches
even his length Of three 10 four feet,
a spawning of such eggs makes a
cumbersome mouthful.

TO OWNERS OF AUTOMOBILES OR

This is to notify ali Montgomery County
owners of motor vehicles of whatever kind
or description that before license tags for
1928 or any year thereafter can be OBJ
tanned, said motor vehicle must be assess
ed on the Montgomery County tax books
and that under the provisions OF the new
State wide law all tangible personal prop
erty tax due on said motor vehicle must
be paid before an application viii be re-
ceived by the Motor Vehicle Commission
of Maryland and said new license tag
issued. The new law does not increase or
change the amount or rate of tangible per-
sonal property tax on motor vehicles, but
strengthens the method of collection in
manner intended to result in the payment
of this tax by all of the citizens OF the
State That is, under the law passed by
the Legislature of 1927 the Commissioner
of Motor Vehicles will not issue or transfer
any license tag certificate or registration
or title for any motor vehicle owned in
Maryland unless the tangible personal
property tax due on said motor vehicle has
been paid. This law requires the County
Commissioners to prepare separate assess
ment books for motor vehicles and permits
the owners thereof to pay the tax on said
motor vehicles separately from other taxes.
Accordingly, it is necessary for each
and every owner OF a motor vehicle. owned
in MONTGOMERY County, of any kind or de-
scription, to see that said motor vehicle is
properly assessed on the books of the COun-
ty Commissioners as tax receipts must cor

Not of Indian Origin

AS to the origin of the expression
Indian summer" Mr.. Albert Mat.
thews has shown that 1t does not oc-
cur anywhere either in printed books
or manuscripts until the year 1904,
but at that time 1t was In use
throughout the Atlantic states. The
popular belief that Indian summer
weather was predicted by the native
Indians in conversation with the first
European settlers finds no documen-
tary confederation, and the idea that
the term INDIAN summer" was en-
ployed by the early settlers seems to
be a myth. In general, neither this
term nor anything corresponding to
1t is to be found in any Indian Ian
guage. The term 'Indlan Summer" In
its present usage was introduced into
England from America. In 1878 Hor-
ace Walpoie used the same express
sion, but he evidently had in mind
the intense heats of the midsummer
weather in India and the West Indies.
