miles above New Orleans. People who
come from this section long have been
accused of taking things bit easier
than those farther north. In fact, a
good many naturally regard lack of
speed as distinguishing characteristic
of these people
SO Cadet Lejeune was not long at the
academy before his ability to sleep at
any time, under any conditions, and for
what appeared to his classmates an in
terminable length of time, became we'll
known and source of merriment.
One morning the young Louisianian
stuck to his bunk even longer than
usual. Regulations as to rising were
strict. and 1t looked as if he would be
chalked up as tardy. One of his close
friends started for his room. When
asked where he was going, he flung
back over his shoulder:
Eve got to wake Lejeune up. If I
don't, that man will sleep until Gabriel
blows his trumpet"
From that time on he was to be
known as "Gabe." However, no one
but those in the class of '88 has dared
so to refer to his weakness along this
line.
The zeal of those gentlemen in the
United States Senate who sit on oppo-
site sides of the chamber to seize every
opportunity of taking a political crack
at each other offers some of the most
amusing incidents to be found anywhere.
For example, Senator Smoot of Utah
returned from Florida and tariff con-
ferences with Mr.. Hoover in time to de-
liver an address in the Senate on the

Everyday Law Cases
Can Sentimental Value" of Ar
ttcIe Damaged be Recovered?
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

While driving truck recklessly, Alien
Hicks was forced to drive on the side
walk to avoid hitting another truck
Before Hicks could stop the car he COL
lided with the outer wall of residential
property occupied and owned by Mrs.
Walker, widow.
Mrs. Walker brought suit and sought
to recover damages for injury to the
building, and also for the breaking of
violin and two plates which she cher
lshed as gifts from her deceased hus-
band. For these latter items she
claimed sum much greater than their
actual worth, stating to the court that
the sentimental worth of the objects was
much greater than their actual worth.
The defendant objected to her claim
and offered to pay only their actual
value.
The court, permitting Mrs. Walker to
testify as to special value of the articles,
stated:
"One criterion of damages is the ac-
tual value to him who owns 1t, and this
IS the rule when the property, such as
family pictures and heirloors, is chiefly
or exclusively valuable to lin. Such
property should be valued y tn reason
able consideration for the feelings of the
owner"

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

The chief flaw in any system OF child
management is the bitter conflict which
often RACES between father and mother,
or between the two generations that
represent the parents and the grand
parents. The mother, with all her new
ideas of child training and child man
agement, is sometimes a loser against
the forces of grandparents and father
arrayed against her. Mother is paci-
fist, father is for giving "the kid
good tilrashing." Mother is all for
looking upon him as an individual who
has his rights to be respected, and
grandparents are sure that the only
necessary thing is that the child mind
when spoken to.
There isn't child living who doesn't
sense this conflict, no matter how
carefully one tries to hide it. And
vantage Of it?
Knowing that mother does not believe
in whipping, Johnny goes his own
sweet way when she is in command,
and Sally, knowing that father is very
soft where she is concerned, turns her
batteries of smiles and kisses upon him
when mother relates her nisdeeds of
the day. Children are great gamblers.
If there Is chance that they will
escape punishment with one or the
other parent, they'll take that chance.
No matter what type of treatment Is
to rule in the home, it should be con-
sistent If there are to be no spankings,
there should be none, and Sally and
Johnny should understand that and not
that mother thinks he shouldn't have
one and father thinks he should, How
can any small boy know what is ex-
pected of him, or what is considered
mishehavior and good behavior If the
two parents upon whose judgment he
must rely have no clear ideas them
selves on the subject? A child has to
feel secure even in his punishments.
He must know thing is bad today and
is bad tomorrow and always merits the
same rebuke. Only one good thing can be
said Of the spanking parent-he is con-
sistent.
All of which may lead my readers to
feel that am not consistent in that I
say spankings are futile. I am still a
consistent non-spanker, but I have
passed through my experiences and
know them both from theory and prac-
tice Some young mothers are just
adopting theories without ever having
carried them out in practice and they
are in conflict with fathers and grand
parents and uncles and aunts who are
bound tightly in all the old traditional
ideas about severity and domination of
children.

1t is the fandiest yardstick-the easiest
way. The nature of mind is such that
to understand the meaning of anything
we must interpret it in the light of our
past experience.
Judging others by ourselves is not
altogether a bad thing. While it may
lead us far astray In some details of
human nature, 1t also helps lis to be
kind and sympathetic.
Seeing another person In distress, we
feel badly because we know how we
would feel under those conditions. We
therefore rush to their aid and do all In
our power to relieve their suffering.
Because we have no other standard
OF Judgment. We judge others by our
selves. We are forced to think In terms
OF our experience, yet no two of us are
exactly alike. We may be alike in kind,
but we differ widely in degree. In so
far as we are different from other peo-
pie we misjudge their motives and
tastes, and In so far as we are like
other people We have sympathetic
understanding of their joys and sorrows,
defeats and triumphS.

WHY WE DO WHAT WE Do
BY MEHRAN *. THOMSON.

All human beings Judge others by
themselves. This fault is called the
psychologists fallacy because it has to
do with the mental state.
AS matter of fact. the psychologist
Is least guilty of making this mistake
because he understands the laws of
mind and is careful to avoid the COM
mon pitfalls.
The poet who judges stones. trees and
brooks by himself is the most extreme
offender. He speaks of the sun as ris-
ing joyously over the hills or as setting
sadly over the blood-soaked battle
fields. OF course the sun has no emo
tins. We read our emotions into the
world of nature because we are human
and must think and feel and act in
human ways.
Children and immature races picture
their gods as having distinctly human
qualities-as supermen. One of the
ancient Greek philosophers, aware of
this trait, stated that If human beings
were built like frogs they would think
Of their deities as having similar traits.
We judge others by ourselves because

occasion of Lincoln's birthday annlver-
sary For more than 80 minutes the
Republican Senator held forth eloquent
ly on the ideals and democratic princi-
Piles of the great President.
No sooner had the last word been
uttered than Senator Bruce arose.
Mr.. President" he said, II wish to
ask the Senator from Utah whether
there is any reason to hope that the
democratic spirit of Mr.. Lincoln and
his ideas about equal justice to all men
will enter into the composition Of the
tariff that the Senator from Utah is now
so active in helping to frame?"
Smoot was caught off guard. His
face flushed. and with gulp he arose
and stammered:
Il will say sincerely hope So"
Capitol Hill is seeking an answer to
this question: What prompted Senator
Joe Robinson 10 discard his high-top
shoes and don handsome gray spats?
These articles of apparel now have
become a fixed part of the Arkansas
Senator's dress. and he wears them
well. There Is nothing suggestive of
oudishness Ito use a word frequently
heard in Arkansas) in the Senator's
appearance when he wears them Not
at all. Rather they add to dignity of
the distinguished Democrat. But the
question persists-why did he take
them up?
Some one suggests that the spats are
just hangover from the presidential
campaign. This solution will not hold
up, however. for the date of adoption
goes back farther Others are of the
opinion that it is because Jim Reed
also a bespatted Democrat-soon is to
quit the Senate. and Senator Robinson
felt that the Republicans should not be
allowed to Eave monopoly.
Well, whatever his motive, the fact
remains that spatS still are to be worn
by distinguished Democrat on Capitol
Hill, and that Nick Longworth and
Charlie Curtis are not to be alone in
their sartorial elegance.
The United States Senate Is a place
that should not be overlooked by those
interested in what the well dressed man
In public life should wear.
Take Senator Hefiin of Alabama. His
mode of dress has long since become a
part OF him. Let him change the cut
OF that long black coat or don anything
but that Cream-coiored vest and 1t Is
a safe bet he would pass through the
corridors of the Capitol unnoticed. To
discard the long black ribbon from
which dangle gold-rimmed nose glasses
would be equally fatal to the appear
ance OF the gentleman from Alabama.
Then there is Senator Bayard Of Del
aware and his flowing black Windsor
tie. No part of 1t Is ever seen tucked
in his waistcoat. 1t Is always bilIowing
on the outside, and when he warns up
In debate it Is almost as effective as any
gesture he has.

tell her about the new silk frocks and

Well, I didn't bother to explain that

their plain-colored linen jackets were
decidedly smart and every bit as nice"
as anything she could get in silk.

SECRETS OF
HEALTH

TU7E human skeleton consists Of
= 200 bones. There are eight
bones in the skull, which are
united during ehildhOod; u bones
in the face. one hyOid bone. or
Adams apple; 2s bones in the
spinal column, Is ribs. 64 In the
upper extremities ana 50 In. the
lower.
This count includes the 'lxnee.
caps, but does not include the
three tiny homes to be found in
each middle ear.
Bones really have three func.
ttons. They are the supporting
framework Of the body; they pro.
tect delicate organs. and they act
as levers so that the body may
move about.
At one period Of life before
birth all the bones are soft. being
made Of cartilage. This cartilage
gradually turns to hard bone, and
the process, called osslfIcation, is
entirely complete by the age OF Is.
Bone consists OF two kinds Of
tissue. One is very dense ana
compact and the other is more
porous. Compact bone, which Is
hard and protecting. Is always on
the outside.
Surrounding all bones Is q deli.
cate membrane known as the peri.
osteum. This carries nerves and
blood vessels, which supply nour.
ishnoent to the bone proper.
When the periOsteum is torn
away, as in cases OF injury. the
bone begins TO decay, because Il
has lost its blood supply.
Inside the large bones and in
certain flat bones there is mar.
row, which is rich in fat.
At birth the bones OF the skull
are separated by tissue in which
bone has not yet been formed.
This enables the bones to slide
one over the other at the time
the child passes through the birth
canal.

common.
