Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

A Summer resort is an excellent
place in which to observe mothers and
children. If there is ever time when
q child's good manners and habits
serve him we'll 1t is in these hectic
places, where discipline gees by the
boards and the loudest Shriekers get
the most favors. Incidentally there Is
much justifiable pride and an equal
amount of modification for conScien-
tious and slack mothers.
The history of most of the meals
would fill a book entitled The Wrong
Way to Handle Children" and gave me
much food for thought on the futiEty
of the written word, as against dyed
in-the-wool convictions. One can de-
nunciate loudly against the utter use
lessness of forcing children to eat, but
from every table one sees fond but
often distracted mothers hustling each
spoonful into reluctant mouth; pic
turing the "grandness" of this and
that vegetable, and growing positive
ly livid at refusal.
And usually the child doesn't eat. in
spite of all this. One wonders what
satisfaction the parent gets out Of such
heated battles when the victory is al
ways to the weak. But we didn't in
tend to talk about food.
Agnes" was a huge, inflated. rubber
seal which was intended for the water
but never left dry land. On its fat
back the smaller children jumped. They
logged Agnes about, they kissed her
ugly grey face, they adored her. One
night Elaines mother came to where
Bobby, aged nine, and her daughter,
were romping. "Just a few minutes
more, darling, and then you will be 60
ing to bed"
'Ill go right away mother" said
Elaine, IF you'll sit on Agnes back"
Il don't want to, darling. I would
feel so silly"
please, please. please" pleaded the
excited children, and Bobby in his
eagerness grasped her arm and pulled
and hauled at her Unable to get
away from the two of them, the mother
turned to her daughter and said help
leSsly:
See what Bobby is doing to your
mother!"
It worked like magic. Elaine flew to
her mothers defense. loosened Bobby's
clinging hands and bidding him good
night went off happily clinging to her
mothers arm. She had all the airs of
rescuer.
One can think of so many ways in
which the average mother might have
bungled this situation that this little
lesson in tact and the use of just the
right plea at the right time struck this
observer as particularly effective.

Only about 80 Of each 1000 acres

taxing districts, since land returned
to the state is not assessable Tor

'In some instances, this condition

units are having, we have been con-

The county commission feels, Mr..
Byerly said in concluding his ad-

contract pays enough in taxes or
interest to exceed the amount to be
reasonably expected as rental, the
different tax units will be ahead to
