A NEGLECTED ANGLE By Alice JudeON Pcale

During the past 10 years much has been written of the importance of giving children information con- corning sex and reproduction at the time when they wished to know 1t.
 Some very intelligent work has been done in an effort to show how this material may be presented in . way which is at once truthful and, as it were, psycholosically desestible. The best work of this sort which has come to my notice is Growing Up" by Karl de Schweinitz. This little book ts one which the parent may read for information and method and which may be put into the hands of the child if that seem wise. Desirable as is this sort of edu- cation, 1t is of surprisingly little help in orienting children to the de- rartment of life with which 1t deals if the feelings. which are largely the product of unconscious reactions, have not been properly educated all along the line.
 A youngster whose factual knowl- edge of sex is sketchy or even incor- 1 rect will be able to achieve . per- fcctly wholesome attitude if his emo- tional reactions to those secondary aspects of the subject which have been a part of his daily life since hs was born never have held. guilt shame or unhappiness.
 l Children are. of course, extraordi- narily sensitive to things concerning which it is impossible for them 10 be articulate.
 They cannot help but take over to a large extent the manner of their ! parents acceptance of sex and the emotions related to #.
 If father and mother are we'll mated and free from an undue sense of guilt and shame. their children are likely to reflect an attitude to- | ward love in all its manifestations which is at once wholesome and serene.

 Some people believe that poul- tices of cranberries will cure efysi- pelas.
 If ever there was | burning red disease it is erysipelas, known in- deed by the population Of an earlier day as St. Anthony's fire. The very basis Of the treatment of eruptions of various types by peculiar poultices is the doctrine on which doctrines as homeopathy are found; namely. simtlia similibus curantur, or like cures like.
 Hence for all red and burning eruptions, red hansinss are hung in a room and red poultices are con- sidered to have special virtues.
 Erysfpelas is one of the most widespread of diseases, since 1t rep resents the infection of superficial wounds by | germ that is exceed insly common. When this germ at- tacks the skin. there is irritation. sometimes burning. sometimes the formation of blisters, sometimes . Eeneralized infection of the whole body. with death the result.
 However. healthy adults rarely die of erysipelas. Newborn chil- dren usually die when this. disease attacks the navel. Old people, people suffering with Bright's dis ease or diabetes. and drunkards are more likely to die of such infections than are other healthful individuals. The tendency of most cases of erysipelas is to progress toward re- covery and the physician usually treats the disease by the use of suit

casionally. had told me this truth in various forms for yeark With the memories of their counsels bol- stering my own determination. I gradually fought my tempestuous emotions back to sanity and then covered them again under deep layers of deadening calmness. There was too much on my shoul- ders for the next few months to permit myself to be distracted by anything in the world save my l small son. Fortunately, things had so shaped themselves following his fall that it really would be better | for him to stay at the farmhouse with Katherine and his grandpar- ents than to be with me. But knew that at any needed call from him my work, my career, anything in the world, would go by the board.
 Vcrltzen Phones Dicky The sound of the telephone shrilling an insistent call brought me out of my reverie with a jerk. But when I reached the hall l heard Katie at the downstairs tele- phone. st
 "Yah," With rueful little smile I realized for the thousandths time that never could I hope to get Katie to answer a telephone prop- erly. "Dees ees Graham's house. Who dees? Ay-yah, Meester Verit- zen. call Meesis Graham. Vot dot? No: Meester Graham? Yah. He outside in yard. I call heem in.'
 I heard the sound of her foot steps hurrying toward the door, Then they came racing back again. and she screeched into the tele- phone, ''Hold the line" and dashed back again ard the door, while ' leaned az t the doorpost. help less with laughter at the ae,mental image Of my stately employer at the other end of the line listening to katie's absurdities of diction and manner.
 But laughter soon gave way to uneasiness. What on earth did Philip Veritzen want of Dicky? He already had tacitly agreed to my dictum that he was not to come near the farmhouse. and was to come to us for the first time upon the day after We were settled in the hotel.
 l knew that my employer pos- sessed somewhat Puckish humor, and was also utterly careless as tp the effects of his diplay of it. l guessed that he had seen through Dicky's elaborate pretense of cor diality at the inn. Had he devised some cunning scheme for further annoying my temperamental hus- band?

 That's good.' replied Dipper. T guess I'll go back to the Smiling Pool. If two of US should be seen here at the same time, our secret might be suspected. Goodby, my dear"
 Npper disappeared as suddenly as if he had been pulled under water by something beneath. When he re- appeared he was out in the Smiling Pool. He had. of course. travelled under water. There he swam about and dived and fshed and seemed to have no care in the world. Mean while Mrs. Grebe sat on the nest and dreamed of the family that would be hers by and by.

able antiseptic solutions and other methods to prevent it's spreading. ].
 When the Doctors Dick discover ed that the streptococcus-the round shaped germ that lives in chains-which caused scarlet fever. produced most of it's effects on the. human body by means of a poison which it developed in the body, they prepared an antitoxin against this poison. 7
 Later, Dr. Conrad Birlshaug studied the streptococcus that. caused erysipelas and developed an antttpxin which would attack the products of that germ. Today many cases of erysipelas are con- trolled by the use of this antttoxin which seems to stop the disease promptly when it Is given early In the infection. When the antitoxin. hkppens to be the specific one against the streptococcus that is. causing the erysipelas. the results are marvellous. The streptococcus is one of the most widespread of all germs and there are hundreds of varieties. The eminent bacteriologist. Victor C. Vaughan. points out that the, streptococcus probably has q much longer history than man. and began its assaults on the animal kingd.es long. before there was any homo sapiens.
 4 thorough evolutionist. he be- lieves that man came into existence as . host to the streptoccus and. that among the good and the bad. the wise and fools. the streptococ-. GUS has always been one of the most important factors in determining mortality rates. Today the prob- lem of controlling streptoccocci in-, fections is one of the greatest ur- solved problems that confronts scientific medicine.

 The hour following my return I'm my interview with Phillip Npsitxen WAS not the first in which Kkad faced the fear-I write the 1Srd down deliberately-that my q tempestuous torturing love for husband might be breaking through the layers of perfunctory q lmneas which I had laid over it. H had realized, for instance, that axy mention of Edith Fairfax was dough to rouse my jealous anger, Ut I had hoped-again there is iafent in my choice of words-that " jealousy did not spring from l{ke, but from that infinitely mean ek emotion, wounded pride of pos ssion.
 NFor with the memory of years of s4prmy life with Dicky, years dur id which l had alternated be- tNeen dizzy heights of rapture and a&ysmal depths of suffering. I had c1me to feel that I prized more ttnn anything else the calmness, tie freedom from poignant men, t& suffering which my new pact wth him had brought me. True, there were occasional bitter mo- nfnts when l felt as might one btnished from Eden. but for the ntbst part I was able to let my cd(mmon sense rule my emotions afd find ease and freedom in my new scheme of life.

Fever is it wise to jump to conclu- sthp. Peter Rabbit had jumped 10 ctglclusions. He had discovered Mrs. 04be sitting on . little mound of dqfA rushea, grass and moss out in tn water, and had at once been su that he had found her nest. Of ca/rse. he couldn't be sure, but he th1ught that if she would leave the nef-if nest 1t was-he might be ahe to zee the eggs and then he weld be sure. He had thumped As on4H Peter can thump. Instantly Mrs. 61be had made few quick mo- tte b with her head and had slipped oA into the water and disappeared. Ta his great disappointment. Peter co&ldn't see any eggs. A few min- utS later Redwing the Blackbird hA1 alighted on the same little mound, and 1t was clear from Red wigs actions that he didn't see any estp. So Peter had jumped to the coSclusion that he had been mis- taten and that was not Mrs. Grebe's ne1 at all. So he had given up and go4 4e on home. !

 Mrs. Grebe looked this way and lo]ked that way and looked the otter ways. Satisfied that no one was watching her. she climbed up ontthat little mound. For a moment shl stood on the edge of it. Then wifh her bill she began to toss aside lc$se material and in a moment thAre were six eggs in the very mid dl@ of that mound. She looked at th{m with pride. Then she settled heSself on them. S'
 SN0 one has discovered this nest yet" thought Mrs. Grebe. T saw R<uwine the Blackbird alight .oh heke, but he didn't discover that it vi my nest. He thought it was just anther one of these little mounds ar4und here. This is what comes of co&ering up the eggs. never would ledEe this nest without covering thDse eggs thoroughly.
