Jordan for an opinion. What is it
that needs airing in your life?

Dear Jane Jordan-Years ago when my
first child was small. my husband was
disloyal to me. When he should have
taken the place of husband, father,
and protector, he turned yellow. 1t was
then that l realized l had nothing to
lean on. l could get more advice and
consolation from stranger than did
I'd love so much to have him sit and
talk with me for q while after the
dishes are done and the children are in
bed but no. his heart and his mind
seemed to be downtown or anywhere be-
He sleeps late in the morning. Crawls
out after fires have been made and the
house nice and warm and the children
of to school and out of his way He
shifts burdens and responsibilities and
always shows up after the storm is over
Comes home around midnight, after it's
too late to go anywhere else.
My ideal husband would be a man
among men. He would go TO church and
belong to at least one good lodge. He
would spend some of his time with his
wife e., and above AL. be a pal and an COM
to say? MOTHER GRAY.
Dear Mother Gray-I long ago
decided that the most cruel thing
a man can do to woman is to
condemn her to live by his side in
tragic loneliness. The thing that
wounds the heart Of woman more
deeply than anything else is to be
shut out Of the minds and hearts
of her loved ones.
Woman Graves the protection of
man, and she needs his counsel
for her guidance. She does not
want to rely on herself, but on
the man whom she chose out of
all the world to share her life.
In her heart it does not displease
her to obey him if he enjoys her
respect and confidence. Without
some one outside herself whom she
loves and by whom she is loved,

domestic duties. Own MoL;nr
When the house
fills up with troublesome children,
dirty dishes and thousand and one
disagreeable tasks, he puts on his
hat and escapes what to him is a
Sordid mess. 1t makes no diff
ference to him that the mess is of
his making. The thing to do is to
escape, by fair means or foul.
He seeks his pleasures with other
men. and with women not burdened
by child bearing. He is a playboy
in search of light-hearted pleasures
instead of dull duties. When his
wife, is worn thin by housekeeping
and baby tending, he makes no
effort to hide his disappointment,
but avoids her as diligently as pos
sible.
For the wife there is no escape.
Her instinct is to sacrifice herself to
the care Of the man and their chill

she wants she asks in return

and some of these were set with jewels.
The Queen was vain and wante dali
to think her beautiful. She used finery
in an effort to offset her sharp and not
very pleasing face.
Elizabeth had no fame for beauty, but
there were many princes and mobiles
who became suitors for her hand.
Among these were the Duke of Savoy
and a Swedish prince.
Elizabeth showed favor to two Eng
lish mobiles, Lord Dudley and Sir Walter
Raleigh. She made Dudley the Earl
of Leicester, and gave him reason to
hope that she might marry him; but
time dragged on until he gave up hope
and married another woman. The
Queen became angry. She was on the
point Of ordering Dudley to be put in
prison, but thought better Of it at the
last minute. He was left free for sew
eral years.
AS If to take another kind of re-
venge, Elizabeth agreed TO marry a
French duke. When the duke - only
half her age and very ugly came to
England the Queen changed her mind
and made an excuse to put of the
wedding
Dudley came to a sad end. He was
charged with treason and put to death.
Before the fatal day he tried to save
his life by sending to the Queen a ring
she had given him in time gone by, but
the messenger did not deliver it on
time. When the Queen finally received
the ring she wept and said:
IF this had reached me promptly
would have spared his life"
William Shakespeare lived at the

Misbehavior.

The child learnk by imitation. He
progresses and improves his own con-
duct by observing the models we fur
nisk him. He watches us and notes
how to act, what to say, what to do
all that is desirable according to adult
standards.
The mistake mothers make is in
thinking that the child's behavior Is In
f,uenced by setting up some other child
as a model The other child may be a
sister or brother or an outsider, but 1t
is useless to attempt to correct any
childs mistakes by comparing them
with the supposedly perfect behavior OF
some other child.
I'm so ashamed of you!" his mother
says to James. why do you act as you
do? You never see Mary dropping her
food on the floor or coming to the table
with dirty hands. Why can't you try to
be as neat as Mary?"
Is James ashamed? Is he inspired to
wash his hands and spoon up his food
with unerring aim? Not at all. 1t eggs
him on to be even more untidy. BY so
doing he exalts his own personality. He
has no desire to be considered perfect.
He's just himself.
If the comparison is voiced too often.
it arouses Jealousy, antagonism and
unhappiness. Every child wants to be
loved by his parents, no matter what
his failings. He doesn't understand that
his mother hopes to spur him on to
more vigorous efforts toward desirable
conduct. All such comparisons infuri-
ate and humiliate him. They arouse
the unhappy belief that he never can
be like Mary, so why try? No one has
ever achieved any miraculous improve
ment in the behavior of child by
pointing out to him how nice he would
be if he were like some other child. But
there are models of conduct that he
will initiate gladly. There are stand
ards of behavior toward which he will
strive, provided they are supplied by
adults.
Every father is a hero to his son
unless he develops too obvious clay
feet. The admirable children in books
may secretly inspire child to emulate
them if they are not priggish and in
sufferable little moraliZers. But, by and
large, it is the impersonal hero, both
real and fictional, whose conduct and
behavior are copied hopefully by the
child Toward such models the child
feels no animosity or antagonism. They
furnish him pattern for his own as
pirations.
But other children offer him no such
incentive to improvement. Their con-
DUCT is too similar to his own. He
knows their failings aid he knows his
own. Their adult-applauded perfections
may be more reprehensible in his eyes
than his own misdemeanors, for the
standards of the child and the parents
are inevitably different.
1t is cruel and useless to attempt to
make a child over into a copy Of some
other child. We wound his pride. We
make him feel inferior. We stifle his
desire to be better.

A Sermon for Today
A Great Lesson.
BY REV. JOHN r. GUM.

BE content with such things as ye
have. Hebrews, Kills.
Such things as ye have" may not
be SO much as before these hard times
hit us. As to material things, most
Of us have had to cut down our stand
without many things that we thought,
a while back, we couldn't get along
without. Perhaps we are better off not
to have so much. Anyway, there is
nothing to be gained by complaining
and whining over our reduced circum-
stances. We may still make happy
thing OF life if we will but observe
this word of the apostle: BE content
with such things as We have"
Contentment does not signify tndif-
ference to ones temporal circum-
stances, but simply peace of mind, in
spite of adverse conditions. The apostle
Paul says: II have learned in what
Soever state am, therein to be con-
tent" And he goes on to say: Il
know how to be abased, and / know
how to abound" Fortunate are they
in these days who have learned that
great lesson. 1t may be well that We
should strive to get back some of the
things that have gone from us; but
if we are content with such things as
We have left, we can all the better
concentrate our thought and effort in
that direction.
The chances are that many of us
never again will have so many things
as We once had. But what of that?
There is more to the text than that
part quoted at the head of this talk
Look at the whole word We have here:
BE content with such things as ye
have, for He hath said, I will never
leave thee nor forsake thee" Besides
this promise of Gods continuing pres
ence and keeping, We have the as
surance: "All things work together for
good to them who love God"
If we have the faith to rely on
this promise and this assurance, we
have no occasion for discomfort, no
matter how hard and trying our lot

the portals of the plant and finds hsr-

finds herself at the brimming well.
Drinking from the fount, she forgets
everything until she has satisfied her
self and wishes to return to her family
