YOUR CHILDREN
.NIpRobey1sRaldu
pi93tN MA SERVICE. INC. {

We have curious ideas about children and one of them is that they naturally should know right from wrong. To go into a deep discussion of natural selection in wolves the old problem, quarrel rather, concerning heredity and environment, so I shall not turn essayist and argue that here.
 This much I shall permit my self to say, however: that person. allyI cannot bring myself to throw herediy in the heap. can not evade my convictions that chips do come off old blocks occa- sionally and that children some- times do reflect in some mysterious manner the thoughts and actions that characterized a long line of forebears.
 Now this, know, would seem to refute what I implied at the top-that to expect children to naturally fall into their ideas If right and wrong would be curi- ous. The best I can do to breach that gap is to say that if baby is born, as think possible, with character tendency, either good or bad, environ ment and training are so much stronger and more powerful in their influence that that tendenc~ can be discounted almost altogether.
 But little children know noth- ing of these puzzling and as yet unsolved debates going on so furi- or y over their heads. They are interested only in the little inti- mate immediate things that con- cvern them. And this is where good and bad come in as well as the training they must receive If they are to be able to make their own selections later on.
 We are shocked if Mary tells a lie. if Willie steals a cookie. if David kicks the cat. or if Mas,lc is selfish and sttngy. Why should we be shocked? Only if Mary Is old enough or has been told often enough to lie. There is no sense in our thinking she should know by pure instinct that lying is wick ed. Tn every way possible. in every little word and act every child must be taught truthfulness from the start. When that Is ingrained Into him early enough It matters not whether he descended from Ananias himself. Every child has

to be told and told and told again that truth is right and must be stuck to. We cannot take 1t for E anted that he knows.
 It is the same with Willie who slips off with cookie. He might haid from the line of demosthenes the Honest and yet not have the slightest idea of what real honesty is. He too must be told and told and told often that honesty is right. He must be honest in every single thing he does.

 Norma heard the outer door close. The house was unusually quiet. She lay still, listening for what must have been 20 minutes. Then as silently as possible she arose and slipped into her clothing. She put on her coat and hat and opened the hall door steaithily.
 No one appeared. to stop her when she reached the ground floor. Five minutes later Norma was at the street intersection. A cab driver swerved in answer to her signal and drew up at the curb.
 Norma stepped into the cab and gave an address. Her face, as she sank back against the leather seat, was like parchment. A moment later she leaned forward and tap ped the glass partition separating her from the driver.

Concerning
Tomato
Juice

The whole nation seems to
have developed a tomato juice
appetite. Children and old folks
have it. and so do all the inter
vening ages.
The tomato is pleasing to the
taste and It's high content Of
vitamins, it's mineral salts, and
the alkalinity of its ash combine
to make it a most important
source of food accessory sub
stances. The comparatively re.
cent appreciation of the value Of
vitamins has given it added i'm
portance in the estimation of
dietitians. for it is one Of the
best vitamin foods. The fruit not
only contains outsta ding
amounts of vitamin c, but also
good amounts of the growth pro-
noting vitamin A, vitamin B and
fair amounts of vitamin G..
It is of approximately the same
richness H. vitamins c and B as
orange juice and distinctly higher
in vitamin A. Because of the
vitamin content, science declares
tomatoes promote growth, in
crease the general resistance to
infectious diseases, and prevent
specific deficiency diseases, which
makes them beneficial to people
Of all sges, and their delicious
flavor appeals to young and old.
While tomato juice Is serving
many purposes, it is generally
used as a beverage. The tomato
Juice cocktail is popular. 1t is
usually made Of the juice and
spices, or perhaps some clam
juice. The juice is used as
flavoring, and only recently a
large establishment advertised
tomato juice bread, the loaves
being slightly pink in appearance
and having a mild flavor of
tomato. The most popular use,
however, is as a beverage, the
pure tomato Juice, with a pinch
Of salt. served cold.
