SECRETS OF
HEALTH
Dr.. Louis e. Bisch-

THILDEN'S minds are not as
~ simple az one might imagine.
Although. compared to an adults
mind. fewer brain cells are de-
veloped, the chiId's thinking ap-
paratus- especially his feeling APP
paratus which also is a part Of
the minds a most complicated
ana often puzzling piece Of ma
chinery.
Actually, nobody knows what
is going on in a child's mind.
We adults think this and guess
that, but how can we be sure?
And that Is why we often make
such frightful blunders in child
training.
A child cries. for example. We
think he is crying because his
nurse will not allow him to play
with q certain toy. The real truth
may be that he Is hurt or fright.
ned by the harsh tone Of voice
employed by the nurse.
It may be the child's senn.
tivenesS that has been unwit-
tingly trampled upon--not selfish.
ness nor stubbornness on his part
at all.
Then take the fairy stories
we often tell or read the little
ones.
/ often wonder what . child
must really think about the ut.
ter nonsense OF some Of them.
Indeed, they are often an insult
to an. intelligent child's imagina-
don. And then the arbitrary
me nner In which adults some.
times correct children must. 1
fear. make the children resent
ful.
since we do not know with
absolute certainty exactly what
Is going on in q child's thinking,
we ought to assume at least
that its. mind IL q logical. rea.
soning organ and that It IL gov
erned by the same rules Of com.
nonsense that control more ma
ture brains.
When children ask questions,
be sure. therefore. that you try
to give sensible answers. OFTEN,
Of course. the questions come so
thick and fast that we feel our
selves hopelessly unable to ex-
plain or to make adequate reply.
But say you don't know rather
than say, Don't ask foolish ques'
tions." A child soon learns to
discover a bluff and a fake in the
same way that adults do.
And when children find you out
they don't forgive or forget as
readily as do older folks. They
remember It and hold it against
you. They are very unforgiving.
EndeaVor always to make some
sense out of what your child says
and does. He may be unable to
express himself clearly yet some
thing worth while may be In the
back Of it all.
Don't be surprised at anything
q child may think or say or do.
Help him in his cropping progress
toward maturity. In fact, encour-
age him to ask for your aid.
II the child's mental reactions
puzzle you, perhaps they are puz-
King him even more. Assist him,
therefore. in making his thinking
clear.
Children who are treated in an
off.hand manner and cases where
the parents do not try to under.
stand the child often develop q
feeling Of being misunderstood in
later life.
Sometimes such individuals be.
come morose and shut in. They
are poor mixers. They think they
are peculiar and different and
that nobody likes them.

GAS TAXES INCREASE
State Total Is Estimated
at IS Millions.

Indiana gasoline tax collections
for 1929 will total approximately
SIS, 100000, against $11, 404 ,361.71 for
1928, according to Frank Hatfield,
president of the Hoosier Motor club.
He predicts total gas tax
collections for the nation for 1929
at $4OO,OOo,OOO, an increase of 80
per cent over collections for 1928
when the total was $3O4,871 ,766.
Much of the increase is due to
increased gasoline tax rates in
twenty states and adoption of gas
oline taxes in Illinois, Massachusetts
and New York.
Hatfield points out that Florida,
Georgia and South Carolina have
rates of 6 cents a gallon, while
Montana, North Carolina and Ten
nessee have rates of cents.
