Juniors Imperative Cell Brings Madge Upstairs in Haste to Find
 That Katherine Has Suffered an

The imperative frightened note In Juniors voice drove all thought Of our controversy over Katie from both my mothcr-in- laws mind and mine. With one accord we moved swiftly toward the staircase. Moth- CT Graham clinsing to my arm
 Coming, Junior" l called softly, for his muffled tones had indicated that he wished no fuss made in an swer to his appeal. and his grand mother quavcred. Yes, my pet TT he right there" in equally hushcd tones.
 our little lad vas Nide-cyod and patently troubled when we reached the top of the stairs. He put out his hand and caught mine as if he wished the support Of physical con- tact in his bewIldermcut.
 "Auntie Kathcrincs crying some thing awful in her room" he whis- pcred. T don't know what 10 do, l never saw her cry before, and she burst out awful sudden when she was putting some pictures away in her trunk. And when I said. What IS the matter Aunt Katherinc?' ?' she just sort Of yelled al me, not cross, but as if shc meant i': Nothing, but 20 away quick, Junior. and shut the door behind you
 My mothcr-in-jaw and I looked E: each other with faces that re- floctcd Juniors beNildcrment.
 "I never saw her cry, either Mother Graham whispered. and in her tone was distinct consternation. l could appreciate her feeling for my little kinswoman with her won dcrful professional skill. her keen insight. her resourcefulness and her loyal tenderness had been rock upon which all of us have leaned in the year since she has undertaken to relieve me of all do- mestic care possible that I might go on with my work in the Neritzen dramatic studios.
 But I had seen Katherine break twice in the years Of our assoCia- ton, and l knew that some espe- Cially ravagug emotion must be having it's way with her. probably climax in some long strain. In the back of my brain there hover ed suspicion of the basic cause between the little nurses sudden break, and I spoke guardcdly.
 Juniors Concern
 "I suppose l ought" l said and my mother-in-law finished my sen tence for me with a relieved face and firm accents.
 "Of course, you ought 0 20 in there at once,' she said. You are the only one who can intrudc upon her. She will resent nothing from you. Come, Pet" She held out her had to her grandson. "Come into my room for a while. Your mother will take care of Mrs. Bicllctt.".
 But with his hand clasped tightly by his grandmother, Junior hung back for last word Of entreaty, for his Aunt Katherine" whom he loves as dearly as if she were in deed a sister of his fathers CT mine.

so as to face him. And always he presented that mouthful of sharp teeth.
 Now Flip is no coward. He wasn't really afraid but this fellow was now 10 hrm. He stHl thought that Unc' Billy Vas some kind of big r@', y"t rhrro was something about h'm different from any rats Flip had ever met Furthermore, Flip's nos" caught the scent Of Inc Billy and it was not the scent of q rat. So Flip was in douht. IL would be just as well 10 he little careful.
 T don't know anything about this fellow thought Flip, but if I can one" catch him from behind. I know I ran kill him. Those teeth look sharp. Of course. my own teeth are sharp, but there is no use in giving hiul n chance 10 do the biting, if l can do it myself without getting hurt I'll just try 10 scare him and W"E" him run. If | can once make him run, IH shake tho life out of him."
 So Flip confirmed 10 dance around Unc' Billy and make little rushps at him, and all the time he was grow ing nor" and more excited, and barking as only d small dog who is rerE much excited can bark. And all the time Inc Billy continued 10 turn so IS 10 always face Flip and to snarl and show his teeth. At the same tune the Billy was trying to get around the henhouse toward the chicken ward, whore he could climb a post.

{ make her feel better, won't you. | Mums?' he pleaded, and l nodded to him rcassuringly i "I'u do the best l can" I told him, with far more optimism than l felt. His first request was an easy one 10 grant, If l know Katherine, she was no longer permitting her self the luxury Of tears. But to make her feel better" l was sore ]" afraid that was beyond my pow 1 CT to compass,
 i I waited until my mothcr-in-law' s door had closed upon herself and my son before advancing 10 Kath- crimes room. And at her threshold 1 stood irresolute for several min- utes, hcsitant to intrudc upon her.
 katherinc's Story
 She solved my dilemma uncxpcCt- edly herself by swinging open her door abruptly. She patenuy had conquered herself sllilfuIly and ap- rlicd cosmetics to hide the marks of her tears. Only a slight redncss O. her "yolids remained to show the track of the storm. She was as trig and composed as ever as she stood in the doorway, her hat already on her head and her travelling coat over her arm.
 To, Madgc," she said in her usual nonchalant ones with the sus- Dicion Of mirth always lingering around them. Afraid I'm going to miss my train?"
 ''No,' l stammcrcd, and with suddenly comprehendins eyes, she put out her hand. pulled me into the room and shut the door.
 'I sec she said slowly. Junior was frightened at my movie mclo- drama and you've come up to con- fort me"
 There was a hardness in her tones which I guessed was there only as q shell of protection over her Quivering nerves. l spoke with equal brusqueness for I knew that tenderness would break her down once more.
 I've done nothing of the kind. l would not so far intrude upon you,' I retorted. "I only want you to know that I'm here, ready to do anything you wish"
 She caught at my hand, gripped it firmly.
 DO you think I don't know that, anyway. you blessed old darling. And l shall Feel better for telling you. It's a very short and simple tale. It's only that l haven't had a letter from Jack for weeks and weeks, and the last one was SO unsatisfactory - and things are so complicated rnyway-and then I came across an old picture I took Of Jack when We were first married -and-it upset me for minute. But I'm all right again.
 Her confidence was ended l saw that. but in my brain was beating an insistent question;
 What did she mean by things are SO complicated anyway" Had Hal Meredith anything to do with these complications she found so trou- blesome?

Talks 1oG6A2 &IEz Parents
PUBLIC EASEMENT
BT Alice Judson Pealo

By Alice Judson peale
 If we are truthful we will have to admit that children more often are punished to relieve parental feelings of anger and frustration, than to lead them in the way they should go.
 This being so. if is small won der that children often are punish cd in public.
 The corporal punishment Of a child in public is as harmful as anHthinc that can happen 10 him. Tho child who is whipped or slapped m the prcscnC" of third person not only suffers the usual hurt and the probable feelings of resentment. but also feels an additional hu- initiation to his ego.
 This humiliation is likely 10 oy- press itself later as excessive shy ness and loss of self confidence, or as kind Of hate which shows itself in cruelty to younger children and helpless animals. It leads him to enjoy their suffering as means of aVonging himself for the humilia- tion he has been forced to endure.
 1T the third party is another child, We may count among the evil results of public corporal pun ishment it's effect upon him. He who stands by, watching while an other child is made to suffer phy- sical pain, is apt to become either calloused to the sufferinEs of others or able to derive from them an ugly satisfaction.
 If you are among those parents who still find physical punishment necessary. you should at least ad- minister it in strict privacy.
 Even scoldinss and corrections of all sorts are far more likely 10 be effective when the child is taken aside and spoken to with some re- spect for his self esteem.

In the Carnegie Foundation re- port on American college athletics, the charge is made that athletic di- rectors and teachers have been chosen rather because Of their abil- ity to make the athletics, especially football, yield profits than for their interest in the health and bodily welfare Of the athletes.
 It is said that the physical health of about one-third of the student bodies is little if at all affected by the athletic programs. It is pointed out that when a man once demon- strates athletic ability, he is en- Couragci to take part in all of the sports and that only in two institu- lions Of those studied was there any limitat on 10 participation Of athletes in q maximum Of more than two major sports per year.
 The evils that affect the college athletes are in many instances much greater when they concern the high school II is stated that the high school athletic associations or Texas, South Carolina, Califor- mia and Illinois practically ignore

New York, Nov. 15-Somebody has said that the short Of the long skirted evening mode seems to be the coats worn over the gowns,
 Anyone attending smart restau- rants. opera, theater or evening parties will sec the truth of this statement. Unless women have their evening wraps fashioned very long and trailing, the short coat is tre- an artistic viewpoint.
 By short, l mean really short be- low the hiplinC. The orstWhilc pop ular length, three quarters, seems to cut the trailing skirt length at the wrong place. A coat must be very long or very short to properly com placement an evening gown of the new silhouette.
 Evening Wraps Many
 There are many kinds of new short evening wraps. Some are wraps more than coats. Coats, how ever, are very popular. Rich bro- caded lanes, in gold and silver with SGttnSt pltkS, pIut or NtllON- dlt lovely. Often rich almost royal blue or deep purple makes q sump- tuous coat. Nclvcts arc excellent. lurs arc used lavishly; Chinchilla mink, crminc, and lapin dyed matching or contrasting color.
 The use of lapin is growing stead fly. Often long. sumptuouS wraps are made of lapin. One such is cape wrap, with dipping backlin", quite in keeping with the new skirt line.
 Collars and cuffs on the short coats are very important. Many of them are furrod One cute rose pink lame. threaded in silver, has q mink collar that forms q little front NcS- tee Of the fur, too. Another ties its crmine scarf collar chiclN under one car. Any little original touch in the use of fur is excellent. If fur is not used, a shirrcd collar or a hugo cushion one made Of finely tucked fabric is a good idea.
