THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES Z. TR4CEU ELL.

The remarks Of childhood are
STRAIGHTFORWARD and without guile. One
| Is scarcely ever in doubt as TO what a
child thinks
The other afternoon Junior and his
| grandmother were walking down the
Sidewalk when they came across
Johnny
Come go with us, Johnny" said
Junior
II can't" replied Johnny.

my mo. her won't let me-"
So Junior and his grandmother went
on down the walk and as they de-
parted the following conversation waited
! back:
MISUNDERSTANDING minds well,
doesn't he Junior?
"Junior-Yes; he's got a mother
"Grandmother-So have you. got a
mother.
Junior But Johnny's mother is one
you got TO mind.
"Grandmother-W We'll, why don't you
mind your mother?
Junior Cause she amt that kind"
What can be done or said in the
face Of such Logic?

The implications from this dialogue,
many and far-rcaching, we leave to
mothers everywhere, secure in the
knowledge that they will make the best
use of them
What interests us is not the guidance
of motherhood from the lips Of their
little ones, but solely the words which
issue from the aforesaid lips.

anything. ask a child preferably of the

He is, Of course facing his social obl-
cations. Hitherto he had existed in a
little world of his own. III which he
was the admired center of attraction.
In school he discovers that there is a
greater center of attraction. Teacher,
and that each one Of his small comrades
is q sort CT center, too.
The individual child, in other words
discovers that he is not the Whole
Show
The preschool child, however, is
frank and honest to the point of
brutality.
She will climb upon your lap with
the best grace in the world throw her
arms lovingly around your neck, and
say. what is all that dust in your
hair?"
Like all little animals. children are
quick to note deviations from the
normal, and almost as ready to point
them cut.
1t is said that the weak or crippled
cub in a litter is Immediately spotted
not only by the mother, but especially
by its brothers and sisters. and often
abused and kept from getting its fair
share Of dinner. Often the crippled
animal is killed.
Human little ones, of course go to
no such straits. but they almost infalli-
bly, note such deviations. and, as stated.
are seldom chary about calling at
tention TO them

TO speak about such findings. There
are kindly children and unkindly ones
gentle and cruel children. children who
are courteous and those who are es-
sentially rude.
Most children will stare at deformi-
lies. but only the totally unframed viii

win have the innate sweetness of dis
position TO say, as one small boy did

Because of the ordinary rudeneSs Of
many children. the boy or girl who
manifests perfect courtesy TO elders
is outstanding. In contact with many
children over period OF years, one
can recall but 2 single little girl who

whereas the average child. seemingly
from rs good parents. might accept
without a word. She was as rare
among children, as similar grace and
courtesy are among 'groWn-lps."
A brother and sister come to mind
who never once displayed the slightest
traces of meanness of disposition or
diScourteSy to others, although they got
into the usual number Of flsticufTs with
their playmates. Their minds. seeming
ly, were too bent on enjoying this life
tc spend their time in finding faults and
pointing them out. Their outlook. in
other words, was inherently courteous
at all times.

Children have a way of tying one
up with ones own words, as witness thu
following anecdote: A small brother and
sister were permitted to eat at table
with guests. The girl was always po-

The Immigration Row.

National origins" runs trippingly
do with immigration. That much. at
least is known to the man in the
street. Just as he knows the equaliza-
ton fee had to do with farm relief in
the last Congress and that the de-
benture plan has to do with the same
subject In the present Congress. The
impression has been advanced by sup
porters OF national origins" that 1t is
intended to restrict further immigra
ton into the United States and that
there Is to be a material reduction in
mitted. They urge. too. that the ma
tional origins" clause of the present
immigration law was adopted to bring
about further restriction.
The national origins plan of fixing the
immigration quotas from the various
foreign countries takes into account the
blood of the early settlers of this coun-
try. seeking to give the greater per-
centages of admission to the countries
of that blood. The fact of the matter
is that when it was placed IN the i'm
migration law. it was for. the purpose
Of reaching a different basis for fixing
the immigration quotas rather than
with any idea of materially reducing
further immigration. immigration. by
the existing law, with quotas based on a
later census of the people of America
has been limited to approximately 1914
900 admissions of immigrants to the
United States each year. In the years
before the World War. immigration fig
ures were in the neighborhood of a
million immigrants annually. The
present restriction. therefore, is no in
considerable matter. Furthermore, the
estimates of the effect of the national
origins clause. if it becomes effective,
place the prospective immigration at
1853 600 a year. This is a difference Of
ii 900 immigrants year, which, after
all is said and done. does not appear a
very vital issue.
The real fight over the national
origins lies between groups of Ameri-
cans of foreign blood-all in the begin
ming of this country were of foreign
blood. The opposition to the national
origins clause comes strongly from the
Americans in whose veins runs the blood
of Scandinavian ancestors-ancestors
from Northern Europe. Germany and
| ireland.
The claim has been made. it is stated
by Senator Nye of North Dakota. an
opponent of the national origins clause,
that the impression has been formed
that this clause would further restrict
immigration from Southeastern Eu-
rope. This Senator Nye denies fatty,
asserting that immigration from the
countries Of Southeastern Europe would
be just as great under national origins
as ii is under the existing law. The
national origins plan. II it finally be-
comes effective. would increase the
quota CT immigrants from England.

The Man Who Laughed.

Somebody told him if he laughed
The world with him would smile.
So he undertook to chad
In a persistent style.
He laughed when on the street you
slipped
And saw great painful stars;
He laughed when scared pedestrians
skipped
In front of trolley cars.
He laughed to hear each tale of woe,
Zen though your tears might fall;
He laughed at folks who couldn't go
To see a game of ball.
Until at last his friends broke in
Upon his manners lax
And every time he dared to grin
They hit him with an AK!
