That Word
Forbid Has
Bad Effect
BY MARTHA LEE

Parents could save themselves a
lot of worry and trouble with their
offspring if they just would stop
using the iron hand on friends they
disapprove of and apply some Of the
gentler and more effective methods
that have been tried and found
successful
Nothing stirs a budding romance
to completion quite so quickly as a
strong objection to the boy or girl
in question.
Children simply will not be told
who they should or should not &c
with. They can be guided and
shown the right way, they can be
shown subtly where the match
would be to the worst interests Of all
concerned. But they must not, in
fact, Will not, be told outright, that
their choice of boon companions is
not all that it might be. Because,
nine times out of ten, they will go
right ahead, just to show their par
ents how wrong they can be-
Wise Parent Can Do 1t
If a parents objections to his
child's friends really is founded
upon anything tangible, a wise par
ent always can manage to make his
child see those things for himself
without word of objection, without
a single forbid"
Here is a young girl headed
straight for unhappiness just be-
cause her parents haven't sense
when it comes to dealing with their
own child.
Dear Miss Leg am % years old and
am in love with boy to whom my par
ents object strenuously. This boy is, as
far as I can see. a perfect gentleman,
kind and considerable. ambitious and
thoroughly likeable. He has a position
not so terribly good right now. but I think
he can work into something very good in
time. I have faith IN him and his pos
sibiites.
Now it seems that my parents have
planned different sort of marriage for
me- am not engaged to this boy, but
all FCAf AbAlA Va AA44lis L AA1AS AAAAAA SNSNNA
than any one I go with. or rather I should
say have gone with. because my parents
have refused to allow me to see him.
No Reason Given
do not think they have a right tc
forbid nts to go with him. I am self
supporting and of age. I never have
caused them any worry and see no reason
why hey should take it upon themselves
F-Fa
give ne any reason. except to say they dc
not trust him and do not want me tx
see him.
I intend to see him anyway, OF course
But he will not consent to see me without
their knowing it. He SAYS if they have
any reason for forbidding US to see each
other. they should tell him. What am !
to do2 I can not bear to give him up.
NJ. G. c.
You would better tell your par
entS exactly what you have told me.
1t seems to me the boy has honor
and chivalry and pride, since he will
not see you without your parents
consent. Perhaps your parents
would feel differently about it if
they knew that he has shown so
much character in this matter.
If they have serious objections to
him, there is no reason why they
should not tell you and him exactly
what they are.
1t would be so infinitely more
wise than this very mysterious man
ner they have taken. 1 should say
they would better start knowing
their parental onions.
It's rather late to start Your,
%. and surely deserve a hearing OF
| the subject.

Travelling At Night Is
Not. Night Work,
McCarl Rules

There is one railway mail
clerk who has found out that
when the law says one must
work in order to get paid the
10 per cent bonus for night
work the law means just that
thing.
In a decision handed down
today Comptroller General j.
r. McCarl ruled that the postal
clerk in question, whose name
was not brought into the case,
was not entitled to extra COM
penSation because he was
ordered to "deadhead" from
his home in Charlotte, N. c..
to Washington on official bust
ness.
The clerk did not do any
work on the way up here al
though the entire trip was
made at night.
