OUR CHILDREN
By ANGELO PATRI.
Help in Time of Need.

Recently have had three letters
from three different children telling me
that when they had to take an eX-
animation they we're so scared that
everything they knew few out of their
heads and they failed. They were sure
they knew the work but the Thought
of the examination filled them with
fear and brought them to defeat.
Now fear of this kind Is born Of ex-
perience. Sometime or other these
children had bad time with paper.
The work was beyond them either be-
cause it was not well graded-that has
happened-or that they were i'll pre-
pared That, too, has happened. The
memory of that failure stayed long
after the cause Of it had been for
gotten and each time they looked at
an examination paper the fear returned.
The only way to quell the fear is to
achieve success.
That is not as impossible as it sounds.
First the mind of the child must be
prepared. The reason Of the fear ex-
planned The child must acknowledge
to himself that he has the power, that
is, the information he needs, the in
telligence to use it, and the endurance
to carry through hard five minutes as
and he will succeed.
And that is not easy to do as it
he is afraid, that this fear is the
reason for his failure, he clings tightly
TO this idea. You see the fear pro-
vides a very good excuse for failure.
The child is assured in his own mind
that he is a 100 per cent good in the
subject, only his fear stops him from
showing the world his power. He would
rather fail by not trying than take
q chance on making an effort and
falling. Fear has him coming and
going. He has to get rid of the fear.
First we must build up the child's
health. Take nothing for granted
about this but have the experts at the
clinic examine him for physical causes
of mental worry. Then treat him as
ordered by the expert. Begin at the
same time to give him the mental treat
ment he needs. Teach him to think
courage Teach him to keep in mind
the three words, to mediate upon them
daily-courage, intelligence, endurance.
He knows he is brave. Saying so
strengthens his conviction. But he does
not understand how to release his in
telligence. That is a matter of mystery
to wiSest. but by calling upon it, by
releasing the body from the tension
Of fear, and this is done by thinking,
courage, he succeeds in freeing his in
telligence from the weight of the fear,
and 1t works
Endurance. is to be cultivated by
simply holding on. From minute to
minute the child in fear is to say,
Il am brave. I will hold on until this
passes. 1t Is passing and ! am free
TO do my work in the full power of
my intelligence"
Train child to think this way, to
control himself this way, and you will
put into his spirit something that is
beyond price. Fear is the deadly
enemy Of growth. 1t can be laid. Be-
lieve 1t yourself and then teach that
belief to the child.

The President greeted them in the
office of Lawrence Richey, one of his
secretaries. The guides had brought
moccasins for Mrs. Hoover, a miniature
birch bark canoe, silver mounted
moose hoof for Mr. Hoover, and
quantity of moose meat for the White
House table.
After the introductions and presen-
tation fornalities were over, one of the
guides produced moose horn.

will show you how we call moose In

The story goes that just as the
blast was about to reyerbrate through
the stately executive offices, the Presi-

something to the effect that he would
be content merely to examine the in
strument.
The guide surrendered the horn to
