what this will mean to his future career.
In the latter case, losing to a better team
teaches the boys to take defeat un-

in after life We teach them through
athletics never to underestimate the
skill or brllliancy Of their opponents,
because when a man learns that the

likely to give his best competitive ef-
forts. One night / attended n series
of amateur boxing bouts. During one
of the contests one of the boxers sud-
denly quit and walked to his corner and
tossed In q towel in token Of surrender.
His coach or trainer looked on in aston
ishment at the despicable display Of
cowardice. Selling his charge he or
dered him to accompany him (the
trainer) to the dressing room. Now
said the trainer as he closed and locked
the door you've got me to fight 1t
was now the youths turn to be sur
prised However, there was nothing to
do but defend himself the best he
could, which strangely enough he did
Not only did he defend himself, but he
carried the battle to his mentor, who
was a skillful boxer. At the end of
the combat the two contestants shook
hands. That lad had learned his les
son and became one of the best anna
teurs in the country. This is what we
are striving to bring out in athletics. :"
II is worth while.

ny THE COUNSELLOR.

The people Of Mid-City and the Mid
City Railway Company were locked in
an uncompromising legal combat. The
railway company had filed a petition
asking for a l0-cent fare. and the
people had answered the petition con-
tending that the prevailing scent rate
was sufficient
At the hearing. attorneys for the
company placed on the stand experts.
who testified that the present valua-
ton of the company'S property was
approximately $4,000 900. basing their
figures on present postwar market
prices.
The people. however. put on the stand
experts, who testified that the valua-
tion Of the property was only $4,000 900,
baSlng their figures on normal pre-
war prices.
Each side contended that its basis
Of valuation was the correct one, and
insisted on a ruling on the matter.
The court. relying on recent Supreme
Court rulings, laid down the following
rule:
While it would be unfair to the
public TO fix a valuation based merely
on consideration of abnormally high
war prices yet it would be equally un-
fair to the utility company entirely
to disregard the general higher level
Of prices existing since the war, and
consider merely pre-war prices. Both
must be taken into consideration;
neither in itself is controlling"

the eyes Of man with the mouth Of

alike We are in our expressions because
We share common nature.
The expressions associated with the
mouth disclose an age-old chapter in
the story Of man. The mouth plays

when We p0ut or pooh-pooh. we show

Child Learns by Mistakes.

Every parent is quite aware that he
learns by his mistakes; that the
process OF trial and error and retrial
eventually lead to success, but he has
particular aversion against allowing
his child TO learn by these methods.
There is a type of parent who simply
can't let a child alone. and must have
not only his finger but his whole hand

would Just as soon build one on top
Of the other and then cast them down
with a gorgeous bang as to play with
them any other way. But not his
young father He seats himsen on
the floor and proceeds to show Bobby
how TO build real house, one that
balances neatly and solidly on its
expert foundations Bobby isn't ready
for this yet, and when father is through
he gives the whole thing a good push
and laughs uproariously as 1t ciatters

mother
It's good thing Bobby can take
this stupendous edifice SO lightly for
when he begins putting blocks one on
the other and they refuse TO stay as
did his fathers Bobby gets hugely dis
couraged and his interest in blocks dies.
Bobby has TO be allowed 10 let the
blocks fall and enjoy that stage until
he tires OF it and learns by actual
experience that there are ways Of plac-
ing the blocks so that they won't fall
down BY building over and over he
finds just which way is right and which
way wrong and he has his own simple
designs 70 encourage him and not the
intricate one Of his father which he
can't be expected 10 initiate.
The only way he can enter into the
game with his father Is by wrecking
the block house. and so all his fathers
help Is wasted
