A SHINING VIRTUE
By ALICE HUDSON rEALE

by ALlCE JCDSON IEALE
 No doubt you take pains to culti- vate in your child honesty, orderii- ness and industry-the humdrum virtues
 But what about the one shining virtue of the human race-curios- ity? It is at least as important for his happiness as the others. The measure of your child's curiosity is to a large extent the measure of the amount of fun he will get out of life.
 Is your child one of those who wants to know the why of every- thing? Does he poster you with questions to which he really wants to know the answers? You should be pleased.
 Does he take things apart to see what they are made of? Fine. ls he eager always for new experience ? Does he feel that the unknown al- ways is worth finding out about 1 That is quite as it should be. Help him be curious. Answer his questions. but don't give him such 1 exhaustive explanations that he is overcome with facts.
 When he comes home with a new discovery. act as if it were news to you. too, and listen with interest while he tells you all about it. l Don't steal his thunder. If you are keen about botany, let him learn to be keen about it for himself. Don't force it down his throat. You may know that plants are marvellous but he will never want to know a thing about them if you bore hin, with discourses and smother him with information. Expose him to wonders. but don't try to com- mandcer his attention. It can't be done.
 Give him the whcrewithal to fee his curiosity and follow his own in- I vestigations. See that the young experimenter has tools, the bird fan pair of field glasses. Provide rel. | crence books which are readable and trustworthy. If your child's re. searches result in collections. see
 that they are as little tempered ..h as the most precious volumr! your library.

 He threw out his hands with a curious little gesture of finality and turned away, walking swiftly toward the house. For an instant the little traitor within my soul urged me to call him back. for I was not par ticularly proud of the ultimatum had given him. Then the remem- brancc of the scorn and the incom- prehension with which he had met my proposal stiffened my spine. After all, there was something in Mrs. Ticer's homely proverb con- corning the fitness of serving the same sauce to goose and gander.
 Empty Victory
 But felt like anything but vic- torious combatant-though I knew that Dicky would be chary of again bringing up the subject-as I too rose and made my way to the house My reason. my common sense, even my self-respect told me that I had made the only answer possible to my husbands demand. butt suddenly had the fantastic wish that Dicky and with our boy could be trans ported to some place away from the highly organized civilization of which we were part, a place where Dicky must work with his hands for our support, where I must also labor to keep my house in order and my family clothed and fed and where there would be no disturbing in- fluence like noted theatrical pro- ducers and feminine efficiency ex- perts.
 The mental picture of fastidious Dicky as laborer was what need ed to restore my mental equilibrium. for it gave me laugh. When l had stopped smiling. my mental and emotional gears had meshed. and I was ready once more to face the good of things as they are."
 Dicky was nowhere to be seen as I passed through the lower floor of the farmhouse. guessed that he had gone directly to his own room and that would see little more of him before we went to the city. Aside from the relief of avoiding further discussion with him, I was gratified at this state of things, for I had task before me which called for unruffled nerves. I had been putting it off in cowardly fashion but when I saw Dicky's mother coming toward me in the upper hall, I know that 1 could postpone it no longer.

Welcome Robin was losing his appetite. He could think of nothing but that stranger he had seen sev- erai times. This strange Robin had curious way of appearing and disappearing. and Welcome Robin vas 70 jealous that he had made up hts mind that the next time that stranger appeared he should be taught . lesson he never would for get. Welcome sat close by the nest that Mrs. Robin was building and waited and waited and waited. And while he waited his impatience and his anger grew. But he waited in vain. Not a glimpse of that stranger did he get.
 Its your imagination" declared Mrs. Robin. as she continued the work of building the nest.
 There's no imagination about it," retorted Welcome Robin. I've seen that fellow as plainly as I see you"
 Then where Is he now?" asked Mrs. Robin, who was beginning to lose patience.
 T don't know" replied Welcome. ''I don't know. l wish I did. If knew where he was I wouldn't be sitting here. waiting. I would drive that fellow so far that he would never come back. Yes. sir, that is what would do."
 'Huh"' exclaimed Mrs. Robin. and went for some more material.
 It was then that Welcome Robin changed his position. He flew over to the spot where he had been when he last saw the stranger. Every time he had seen the stranger Welcome Robin had been sitting on this par ticular branch. He hadn't noticed this. but it was fact Now the in stant he alighted he saw the stranger. Welcome puffed out his feathers and glared. But he didn't puff out his feathers and he didn't glare any more than did the stran- ger. Welcome wasted no time. He flew at that stranger in a fury. If he expected to see that stranger turn tail and fly away, he was dis appointed. The stranger did nothing Of the kind. It was clear that he was willing to meet Welcome Robin half way. He flew straight at Welcome as furiously as Welcome was flying at him.
 Bang! Welcome Robin had bump cd hts head. He didn't know what had happened. He was too confused to know what had happened. All he knew vas that he had received n dreadful bump on the head. IL al been such hard bump that h. had fr'len to the ground. but it had done him no serious harm, and in few minutes he had quite 1ecov. cred. Then he looked for tha, stranger. But the stranger wasn't to be seen
 "I guess l taught that fellow (, lesson that time!" declared Welcome as he flew over to sit where Mrs. Robin was so busily at work. dent believe we'll see him around

Not only must he spend from s5000 to $75O0 in the securing of his medical education, but he must spend in addition the money required for at least two years of college work previous to the medi- cal education.
 When he graduates. he serves an interneship in hospital. Should he desire to specialize. he must then serve an apprenticeship with a specialist for some two to five years, during which his income is exceedingly small.
 The man who enters medicine with the hope of making quick and large financial returns is sure to be disappointed. although he can probably secure a minimum living income from the time he begins to practice.
 Many Avenues Open
 Today much wider opportunities are available in medicine than was formerly the case. Physicians en. ter the field of public health. the, secure positions in medical re. search. they become teachers ir colleges and universities, they be. come medical officers in the army navy or Public Health Service Some of them accept fulI-time sal aried positions with large indus. trial concerns. Many of them ge into general practice. Fifty year; ago practically all physicians, fol lowing graduation, went into gen. erdl practice.
 With the increase in medica technic and medical science. nor. and more physicians have become specialists. In 1925. there wer% 15,o00 specialists listed in the di. rectory of the American Medica Association: in 1928. the number lad increased to 1900.

New York. June 5-From New Orleans, via Paris, Isidora Newman comes as a champion to save for fut- ure America the rich. human darky lore of the old-time Southern negroes.
 Miss Newman, in private life Mrs. Frederick NeugaSs, was born in New Orleans and lived as child in the midst of negro and Creole legends When her own children were born she told them tales in native dialect Later she began writing them down. Visiting America few years ago, after living abroad for years. she saw with dismay the changes that the South was undergoing.
 Old Negro Is Passing
 Modern civilization has set all artificial Harlem standard every where and it is destroying all the natural vividness of the old negroes, Miss Newman said.
 They have real contribution to make to America and the machine age. There is a peace in their souls, a philosophy of life in their hearts and . spirit and vivid beauty in their existence that should be pre- served. If moderns only realized it, those old time negroes could even give them a lot of valuable ideas about the education of the young"
 Miss Newman's negro tales not only appealed here and in Eng land, but have been translated into French and German. proving her argument that the negro ta the kind of story-telier that all the world appreciates.
 Realizing the eye-mindcdness oi this age, Miss Newman started tc paint darkies to illustrate her sto- rics. So vivid, picturesque and anus ingly natural were her things that they were called "spirituals in wa ter colors," were exhibited in Paris and Vienna and brought her the Palm Academique from the French government.
 The latest medium brought in- to use by Miss Newman to portray her favorite subject is tiny dolls She has made dozens of them none higher than foot. all diff ferent characters that show the graduations of yellow in different types, the different characteristic of dress in the different sections of the. South and different genera tions.
 Her collection of dolls wa! made for the New Orleans mu' scum. but has proved SO authentic in detail and 50 popular with chil dren who have seen them tha' other museums have asked fol duplicates.
 Writes Fairy Stories
 In addition to all these avenue. of appeal that Miss Newman ha. opened up, she has published ( charming book on flowers 1T which she incorporates the fair, stories that her old negro man. my told her about the little beingi that lived in the violets. daffodils and other flowers around hel home.
 Listen 10 Isadora Newman tel one of her stories-say, about tho "planting," meaning burial, o, one of the brethren or the wed. din' where the bridegroom didn't show up. and hearty laughter breaks out spontaneously. Hea' her tell a sad story. tears come a. easily. For Miss Newman is as fine an artist at story telling as she is at writing and painting. So, b, writing. painting, story telling and fashioning dolls, this daughter ol the South is paying. with com. pound interest, the debt that made her childhood 70 gay. 50 happy and 90 meaningful.

 ''Then how did I get such a blow on the head?" demanded Welcome. Tell me that, if you please. My head aches this very minute"
 But this was something that Mrs. Robin couldn't tell him. so she went off to look for some soft, dead grass that she needed in the build . ing of that nest

CUBS ARE BETTER
 ON DOUBLE PLAYS
Second and Short Combination
 More Impressive Than Athletics

Philadelphia, Sept. 97 tRl-Shouh the statistical experts got around ,o it before the world series opens and comparison the double play eXccu- tionS of the second -and-short com binations of the Athletics and Cubs tho Cubs will appear much more impressive than the As, at least oH paper. And as far as baseball play CTS themselves are concerned, no less a parsonage than Mir, Art Shircs, formerly of the Chicag) White SoN, stated in a recent radio talk here that the Athletics key stone pair is nothing to write hom" about.
 AIr Shircs' opinion is shared by any number Of gHands,and manag- CTS of the Athletics.
 They have contendcd all along that the home teams twin killings are below par and they marvel that q club so low in double plays should win the flag.
 Unofficial statistics late last wo"l, had the American league cham pions in the cellar in the matter of double killings. The Mackmcn were credited with only 112, $7 be- low the fifth place Washington club which headed the list, and @1 be- low the last place Red SoX.
 Up to the same date the Cubs were leading the National loa@ua with 15G double plays, If more than the Athletics.
 Maybe the experts can makr something out of it.
