GLIDING THE LILY
BY ALICE JUDSON PEALE

Said young father proudly: MY
wife doesn't need any Of this training
in motherhood. All the books on
child psychology and child training
couldn't improve ON the way she
handles our little Margie. Everyone
says there never was more well
behaved child nor a happier one. We
never have to punish her. The neigh
bors ask my wife how she does 1t, but
she doesn't know how she does 1t: It
just comes natural to her 1t seems
to me that all this training is fool
ishncss II your heart is In the right
place"
The man who spoke was q rare in
dividual, for he was happy in his
work. happy In his marriage, happy
In his fathcrhood. His wife had
achieved in her love and in her
motherhood. all which to her seemed
vital or significant. The simple life
OF their home was profoundly salts
flying to then, both. Such parents
arc likely to do intuitivcly what those
Of us whose lives arc arranged less
ideally or who temperamentally are
less gifted In the subtle art of parent
hood must set out to learn con-
sciously.
Yet even that rare thing. the per-
feet home, cannot for long hound the
life OF a child. The influence Of
school and neighborhood. Of particu-
lar social currents. are outside the
immediate control of the family
circle.
Margie's mother and father. who
during these first simple years find
themselves SO gaily competent in the
task Of parenthood. soon will meet
problems which will require more
than intuition for their solution. AS
the child emerges from those early
years his needs become increasingly
complex. It Is q rash parent who
feels he knows 1t all. and that the
wisdom cleaned from wide expert
ence and scientific studies is super
fl0uS.

Few people stop to think about how greatly the duties

Daily Lenten
Thought
BY WILLIAM Z. GILROY, ID. d.
Editor Of The Congrcgationalist)

One does not think of George Ber-
nard Shaw, the playwright, as being
particularly prophet of religion:
yet Mr.. Shaw, once IN the preface to
q volume of plays expressed one Of
the deepest truths concerning religion.
Referring III volume II of plays,
Pleasant and Unpleasant" to various
attitudes and controversies in the re-
l!gion of tho day. Mr.. Shaw said,
There Is only one religion though
there are hundred versions of It."
The bigot who is convinced that he
Is right and that everybody else is
wrong. can. Of course, see in such a
remark only something that Is mean
ingless and untrue.
But the man who realizes the infin-
itude of God and the immenSity of
truth understands full we'll how small
a part of the truth he sees, or how
essentially he sees truth only from
one standpoint. and he learns very
quickly In his own thought of his
fellow nNen the fact that men may see
the same thing from different angles
and thus may hold much the same
truth under different forms and SYM
bols.
This conclusion is emphasized all
the more as man comes in intimate
contact with sincere and earnest men
who belong to churches and groups
very different from his own. When
men OF genuine goodness come into
intimacy with one another the good
ness that Is In them becomes larger
than their differences.
A man may not understand at all
the opinions of another: in fact, he
may think these opinions all wrong;
but he can love the man who differs
with him, and if this man, in turn,
has loving heart. love becomes
larger than their disagreement.
It Is when We interpret religion in
terms of love that VIC see how deep
q truth there is in Mr.. Shaw's saying.
It broadenS our minds. and 1t gives
the deepest emotion of our hearts a
new meaning when we come to think
of religious differences in that light
Moreover. our own version of the one
religion is none the less vital because
OF cur realization that the one reli-
giOn has many versions.

THE DEFEAT OF TUBERCULOSIS

The time has arrived writes DR. Louis l. Dublin in the
April Earper's magazine. when We may look forward
to the virtual elimination OF tuberculosis as major
problem In public health.
DR.. Dublin quotes figures to support his view. In
1900 the death rate from tuberculosis the registra-
ton states o. America los per 100000 of population
By 1910 had dropped to ~, and by ls9e was down
to g.
More striking yet he points out the rate Is diminishing
At IN ever faster rate. The dreaded white plague is
slowly being brought under control and that fact repre-
sents one ef the major accomplishments Of the twentieth
century.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
II Cancer Hereditary?


II Cancer Hereditary?
Question: Mrs. q. NJ B. asks: do
you believe that the tendency toward
cancer is inherited? I have heard of
several families whose different men,
bers had cancer"
Answer: There have been great
many different opinions on this SUBJ
ject, but I am satisfied from my own
observation that there is a tendency
in some families toward successive
members Of the family having diff
ferent kinds of tumor formations
This is probably not only because of
physical similarity between members
of family but also because Of GER
tain psychological factors. These
tendencies, however. should not b.,

Question: Mrs. A. G. asks: rs
there any difference In the whole
someness of canned milk and that
Of pasteurized milk?"
Answer: The main difference Is
that the water has been removed:
Unsweetened cvaporatcd milk Is
equally as wholesome as pasteurized

Answer: am sure your present

an acidosis from faulty habits Of cat

that the circulation is usually poorer

Gently dragged forth on the carpet
before an accusing Board Of Educa-
ton to meet charges that she de-
moralized her pupils by teaching
them the Charleston and other ne
farious bits Of worldly wisdom.
The Board pulled in its horns a
little at finding that the dance taught
their progeny was not the Charles
ton, but folk dance steps taught in
the young lady's college.
The Board was forced to meet, too,
parental charges that Miss Timmons: /:
Failed to come to school on time"
Failed to maintain proper dis
c!pline-"
Neglected to keep proper over

Failed to instruct her pupils in
such a manner as to enable them to

STANDARDS DIFFER
Though Miss Timmons was not re-
moved, it was only by some miracle
for hundreds of young school teachers
are actually fired each year because
parents whose ignorant and provin-
cial way Of living gives them an
utterly different set Of standards and
values than a girl who comes into
their community from q college and
larger environment. seem to think
that they have the right to demand
t,,at the teacher Of their young react
exactly as they do, or she is all wrong
Granting that not all school teach
ers are as efficient as they should
be; granting that they are not always
superior and less prejudice ridden
than the parents of their commune
ties. the fact remains that, on general
principles, am inclined to favor
gossip and criticism of their children's
teacher to mean anything whatso-
ever: in fact, would favor some neat
punishment for parents who carp at
their children's teachers, for the bare
fact is that 80 per cent of the time
the teacher is right and the parent
is all wrong.

kinds of such matter, namely. ponder
able matter and electricity. The parti-
cles of ponderable matter were sup
posed to act on each other by gravita-
tional forces under Newton's law, the
particles of electrical matter by Cou-
lomb forces also inversely proportional
to the square of the distance. No
definite views prevailed regarding the
nature of the forces acting between
ponderable and electrical particles.
Space Theory Shaken by Light.
Mere empty space was not admitted
as carrier for physical changes and
processes. 1t was only, one might say,
the stage on which the drama of ma
terial happenings was played. Conse-
quently, Newton dealt with the fact
that light Is propagated in empty space
by making the hypothesis that light
also consists of material particles in
through special forces. To this extent
Newton's view of nature involved a
third type of material particle, though
this certainly had to have very diff
ferent properties from the particles of
the other forms of matter. Light par
ticles had In fact, to be capable of
being formed and of disappearing.
Moreover, even in the eighteenth CEN
fury it was already clear from eX-
perience that light travelled in empty
space with a definite velocity, a fact
which obviously fitted badly into New
tons theoretical system, for why on
earth should the light particles not be
able to move through space with any
arbitrary velocity?
1t need not, therefore, surprise us
