Most health educators now are

My dear girl. don't you realize that
Dicky probably had no choice in the
matter. He grabbed up enough pieces
to go around. and when he went to
his room he had the job of sorting
them out To his mind, giving any,

spooky sat and pondered and pom
dered on this for so long that in the
middle of his bordering he went to
sleep. He didn't awaken until eve
ming. Just as his eyes flew open, he
heard a faint squeak. 1t was the
squeak of a mouse. After that.
Spooky did no more pondering. That
squeak settled the question for him.
AS long as he could wake up and
hear a mouse squeak. he would stay
right there. SO it was that Spooky
continued to live in Farmer Browns
barn. and Farmer Browns Boy con-

entered the barn and chuckle as he
saw a little brown bunch of feathers

those important years from the first
to the sixth. The influence of the
father. who spends so much less time
with his children, is corrcspondingly
weaker.
The Children in the grades from
the fifth to tie eighth were found to
be influenced increasingly by the
standards Of their contemporaries.
1t was found hat club leaders and
teachers exercise only slight in
fluencc. while hat of Sunday school
teachers was practically nil.
Tho results of this investigation
indicates how rery important are
those carly years when the child's
training is almost entirely in the
mothers hands. They suggest
strongly the daIlger Of allowing the
child to spend tits precious time in
the care of ignorant and careless
servants.
The child's notions of right and
wrong, his respect for property. his
adherence to truth his regard for
othcrS-thcSe arc earned not from
pulpit and platform. but from the
casual daily happenings at home.
The most important part OF the
child's education is complete before
he goes to school.
When fathers and mothers realize
| how squaroly the responsibility for
the men and women their children
become rests on pare,tal shoulders.
they cannot take lightly the detailed
training of those early years. The
school cannot achieve il months that
which wise parent can accom-
plish in an hour. Hours of moral
discourse to the adolescmt have not
a fraction of the influence of one
word of praise or blam, in carly
childhood.

secondary to the absence of suffi-
Gent quantity of any one of them,
is the result OF a general deficiency
of good health rather than of speci-
fic action on the teeth.
Many experiments have also been
done recently having to do with the
excessive amount of acid or alkali
in the food taken into the body. A
great deal needs to be known as to
the direct relationship between the
amounts of acid and the alkalis in
the body.
In general, it is the present opin-
ion that an excess OF acid is bad for
the system under most conditions.
There is not as yet available suf-
ficient scientific evidence to warrant
the conclusion that moderate vari-
alton from the normal Of either
acid or alkali is seriously detrimental
to the teeth.

HIGHER MONEY RATES
MAY KEEP FUNDS HERE

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 27.-For the
second time this year the Bank Of Eng
land has raised its rediscount rate, in
dicatiliE that credit conditions in Eng
land have been found to be more In
need Of protection than those having
to do with industry or politics.
The advance in the rate had been
discussed for o month. When Mon
tagu Norman, governor Of the Bank of
England, went home in August after
o vacation in this country, 1t was
thought that the rate would be irnmedi-
ately pushed up. Political pressure ut
the time was too strong to be resisted,
and there wss also then the hope that
money rates In this country might ease
OF sufficiently to check the now Of
funds from London to New York.
Steady losses of gold by the Bank of
England to the continent and q re-
sumption OF exports to this country
made action imperative. It was quick
ened also by the sensational develop
ments that followed the collapse Of the
HAIRY shares.
In various forms the amount Of for
eign funds in New York is estimated at
pean lenders here Ia France. There Is
also q goodly amount of English capital
employed in the New York market
either on call or In securities. The
direct effect of the Bank of England
rediscount advance on the. American
money market is not expected to be
important at once except I'M shutting
OF further supplies of English gold.
which this country does not need, but
which 1t had to take under the arbi-
trary laws Of the foreign exchanges.
With call loans fluctuating between
q and 10 per cent. the European lend
ers will not be disposed to order their
funds home. although they can use
them In the English market ut the
highest rate in years. ...
