'PLL KICK AND SCREAM"
Mrs. w. b. Bailey

Mrs. w. B. Bailey
1t is very natural for young wo-
men to discuss their children, their
neighbours children and the children
of the community at large. 1t is
rather unusual to listen in" when
men are talking and hear them de-
Gliding how to correct and control
children of pre-school age. Yet
strange things do happen!
A young minister, a friend of a
county superintendent of schools,
stepped into the superintendent Of
flee one day for a short visit. The
two young men, after discussing
other topics of mutual interest drift
ed into conversation about child
ren-their control and training.
The minister related the follow
ing:
you know l had a rare expert
ence about a month ago. 1 had &C
cepted an invitation to spend a week
with some college friends. They
have a beautiful little girl about five
years old. was at first very much
impressed with her manners but in
the afternoon of the second day of
my visit the mother told the child
they were to call upon her aunt and
cousin. Whereupon, the little girl
began to create a scene by crying
and shouting: 81 won't go! I don't
want to go and won't CO."
"But, dear you will have such a
lovely time playing with Donald and
that nice new tricycle. he has, plead
ed the mother.
81 won't either; I don't want to
play with him."
Don't you want to see Aunt
Alice?
"No. And if you make me go
I'll cry and kick and scream all the
time," the child walled as she ran
out of the room.
"Dear mel sighed the mother.
what shall I do with that girl?
You Know Elmore is such a sweet
child when she wants to be but she
is so temperamental. I never know
when she will want to do what I
wish her to do. If I take her she is
just sure to make good her promise /
to kick and scream most of the time |
we are there"
"Have you ever talked with her
by herself about this?" I
asked.
"No," came the rather hating re-
ply, mot very seriously. I have
5elt she was not old enough to I'M
lerstand."
"Well," I said, I'u be perfectly
rank and say think she should be
broken of such a vicious habit while
she is young. At this rate you will
lot be able to control her at all in
! year or so.
what would you suggest? asked
he mother.
"I should tell her quietly that hap
,iness depends properly; that one
Derson must not be allowed to make
he others unhappy; that she is to
70 with you and remember what you
lave told heri"
'Well, the mother acted upon my :
dvice. The child did go, and she :
i'd kick and scream.
when we returned home the mo-
her said to me, you see it did not
o any good"
"'You have not finished" I an
wered. You must prove your words.
t will be necessary to deprive her
f some pleasure, but if were you
should wait until morning, as it is
ow too near bedtime to do any
hing that may prove exciting We
l1ked some more about it later.
"In the morning the mother re-
linded the little girl of what she
ad told her and gave her choice 5
etween two kinds Of punishment.

DOCTOR WOULD
PROVE ANOTHER
KILLED WIDOW

LOS ANGELES, Feb. II GP9-Defense
attorneys for DR. Charles Mcmillan,
accused OF the murder Of Mrs. Amelia
Appleby, widow of wealthy Chicago
inventor, during the closing hours of
court today began their attempt to
show that someone other than DR..
Mcmillan had motive for the kill
ing of the slain woman.
In the cross-examination of Deputy
Sheriff David Croushorn, the attor-
neys asked if the doctor had not told
him that Mrs. Appleby lived in fear of
her life.
did he not tell your" the attorney
asked, that Russell G. Julian for six
months in 1926 lived in Mrs Appleby's
home"
Didn't he say that in May 1927,
Mrs. Appleby sued Julian and obtained
Judgment against him for $916? Didn't
he say that in November just a month
before MIS-. Applebys death Julian
filed suit against her declaring docu-
rnents in the previous case had been
forged? And didn't he say that Julian
placed on parole by the lunacy COM
mission, had been released from pa
role just a month before Mrs Appleby
was slain.
The witness replied that DR.. Nc
MILAN merely said Mrs. Appleby had
enemies and suggested that Julian be
questioned.
Croushorn testified that when he
went to the doctors home to arrest
him, he found glove which DR.. Nc
MILAN claimed was his, but was un-
able to put it on his hand The glove,
the deputy said, was woman's and
later the mate of the glove was found
in Mrs. Appleby's room.
Following the officer on the stand
was Mrs Minnie KlocE, who testified
that she had known the doctor for
five years and that she had taken a
ride in an automobile with DR.. Nc
MILAN in gear-shift car with the
doctor at the wheel, Refuting the
doctors statement that he could not
drive a gear-shift car.
William zacharow, managef Of Z
flat owned by Mrs. Appleby in Chicago
identified a letter received from Mrs.
Appleby in March, 1927, in which he
was ordered TO send future payments
to DR. Mcmillan, who had bought the
property.
He said that he had sent nine checks
to the physician. The letter from
Mrs Appleby was signed Mrs Mar.

aliases used by the slain woman, ac-

NAVY HAS BEST GAME

s = 4
The Army plays Nebraska, the Navy
meets Princeton-that's the latest and
probably the final bit of news for the
next few months on the Army-Navy
squabble.
The Navy certainly did not look for
an easy opponent to take the place
left vacant through it's inability to
agree with the Army. 1t is an assured
fact that they would not have hooked
up with Princeton if they had had
such thought.
Neither did the Army seek an easy
game or Nebraska would not have
been scheduled.
Princeton boasted one of the truly
outstanding teams in the east last
season, losing only one game and that
to- the powerful Yale team. A salient
feature of it's team was the number
of sophomores who were labeled as
stars in their first year of college foot
ball, and those stars will be back next
fall, bigger and better than ever
Nebraska has had one of the out
standing teams of the middle-west for
several years, and is certain to be a
tough team to beat when it plays the
Army.
At this time, it looks like the
Army might take the COrnhuskers
next fall, but one can't say the
same for the Middies. They more
than likely will lose to the Prince
ton eleven.

The senate, contrary to eXpecta-

of interest on the $25,000,000 Of
accumulated interest on German

most of the debate. King and Howell

to prevent "confiscation" OF some

will not get this money anyhow for

COLUMBIA RIVER
RECLAMATION IS.
REPORTED OUT

WASHINGTON, Feb. II oP)-Adop-
ton by the federal government of the
Columbia river basin irrigation prof.
ect, one of the largest reclamation de-
velopments in the world, was recon-
mended today by the senate irrigation
committee in favorably reporting the
Jones-Dill bill
Cost of constructing the project
which embraces 100000 acres of land
in southeastern washington, is placed
at $3O0,000,000. A total of 1883 600
acres would be irrigated and made into
valuable farm lands and the remain
ing 1,117,0OO acres would be used as
grazing lands.
AT the same time, the committee
reported favorably the McNary bill
providing for government adoption of
the DeschuteS project in Oregon,
which calls for the construction of a
dam at Benham Falls ON the Doschutes
river.
Both measures were approved over
the opposition of Secretary Work of
the interior department, who has ex-
pressed opposition to the adoption by
the government of reclamation prof.
ects of this character at this time.
At hearings before senate and house
committees farm organizations disap-
proved of the measures on the ground
that the projects would bring addi-
tional acreage into agricultural COM
petition with areas already under cul-
tivation, and that even adoption of the
project at the present time would have
a depressing effect upon the values of
agricultural lands
On the other hand, the American
Federation of Labor supported the
legislation, contending that the pro-
posed developments would give en-
ployment to labor in filling the needs
both of settlers on the project and
workmen engaged in its construction.
Proponents of the project recited an
array of figures gathered from other
reclamation projects in. an effort to
show the demand that the develop
ment would make upon labor, and
contended that the federal government
largely would be repaid for its invest
nnent by the money cleaned from an
army of taxpayers that would be added
to it,

FANS SUFFER MOST

One can't help but regret that the
two government schools were unable
to get together and iron out their
troubles. But both assumed positions
which could not be deviated from
without suffering the loss of prestige.
There are some who think the at
tempts of Washington politicians to
patch up the trouble, the efforts to
force the government officials, even
President Coolidge, in taking a. hand
in the matter, did not aid any in set
Ting the dispute.
That, one is inclined to believe,
might have made both military and
naval authorities bit more stubborn
in their stands and given each group
a fuller determination not to back
