YOUR CHILDREN
hvNHpRobmzsBa15on
 IGl95lBY NfA SERVICE INC. [

Watch group of children play ing and observe the different ways in which they behave. By their varying reactions to that one game 1t is quite possible to sum up the outstanding characteristics of each child. |;
 Here is the one we are looking for today. He plays for few minutes and then says, "Oh, come on, let's ulay something else" He same thing ten minutes. We or that ,e doesn't like the game, but keep an eye on him when the rest, to oblige him, change to an- other game.
 Another few moments pass and then he stands to one side again. idly kicking the ground, saying, I'm tired of this game too. Let's jlay something else" He's lost his alibi or not win ming or not really likel ythe game SO we shall have to look for an- other reason for his restlessness. Such child is almost invariably what we call temperamental, or emotional. His moods change swiftly and he never quite knows what he wants. He finds excite ment in perpetual change, and no game appeals to him merely for its compet.,v, spur. All he wants is change" and to carry anything on for more than a very short period bores him.
 Stability Must Be Sought. With such child the end to work fo is to try to stabilize his interests, to try to teach him to carr. thing through to a fin- ish. I believe that he can be reached better through interesting tasks than he can in any other way, such as making things. The thrill of something accomplished will develop stick-to-it-ive-ness that more pointless play or rou- tine work will not give him. When he finds that there is a glow in beholding a ship or a bird he has made himself, pride in the fin- ished object, he will be more eager to go about the next one and to see 1t through also. He works for the excitement of the moment when 1t Is finished.
 Quite often a child wants to change from one game to another because the other children are younger mentally Lr weaker phy- sically, and it is too easy to win Playing with older children Is quite likely to put him on his mettle and give him the thrill he is looking for if he beats them.
 The temperamental, changeabie child is sometimes quite puzzling, ar1 he goes through life never quite understood by other people What we must work for in such a case is to create a normal interest in both work and play, to try to teach him perseverance. and to show him that it is selfish to in- dulge his own perpetually' chang. ing whims at others expense.

Survivors Tell
 of the Tragedy
tcontinued from Page 1.)

(Continued from Page 1.) of a hundred torpedoes.
 The men along the main berth section midship to forecastle were thrown out of their berths. others were knocked down. We were all dazed by terrible crashing sound and the ship dipped. The lights went out.
 We were dazed for a moment and then there were screams on all sides. We struggled to make our way to Ceck. I believe that every man for ward of the engine room escaped without injuries more serious than a few bruises. We were all out on the ice soon, and then we realized what had happened.
 We saw all the after part of the ship blown to pieces-parts of the deck and sides, mizen mast and quarter deck and everything nov able scattered about the ice. Among the wreclsage we could see bodies lying motionless and other men struggling to get out of the wreck age. They were moaning and call ing for help from all sides. The aft part of the vessel had al most disappeared except for the Wreckage strewn on the ice. A fire started in the engine room and also from the second deck abaft the fcrecastle. Some closely packed ice kept the forward part of the ship from sinking right away.
 Some of the men tried to get back between decks to get food and clothing. They couldn't get much. The flames and smoke made it im- possible to get below deck, but some of the men got little food before the fire had burned much.
 We helped the injured men to get out of the wreckage. Some of the men were killed and others were maimed and died soon. Some others died on the way to the shore.
 Nobody knows how many were Filled, but we think there were about 22. I don't know how many were injured. There were two stow aways on the ship. Both of thera reached the island safely, and un- injured.
 I have not seen the New York men since the explosion, but I heard Frissell was with the sur vivors on the ice.
 We d0ns kn0W what caused tHe explosion, but don't think it was the boiler because the damage was greatest amidship. Most of the miss irS were killed in their berths, and went down with the ship. Captain kean was rescued in an unconscious condition.
 I think some of the injured will reach shore. because their shipmates are sticking by them.
