festly it is the duty Of every
man and woman to be up and
doing, to perform his part In
putting his shoulder to the
wheel, and to work with the
rest to make once more this
world of ours a glorious place
to live in.
It is really a delightful feel
ing to know you have been in
strumental, even in a small
way, in righting a wrong, in
correcting some flagrant nui-
sance, or in lending a helping
hand to someone who has been
less fortunate than yourself.
To be sure, it is the ego re-
SponSe within the human being
that makes him feel so good
under such circumstances. An
other reason, equally funda-
mental, is an unconscious recog-
milton that his debt to civiliza-
ton is being paid.
And don't wait for the other
fellow to look you up to ask
your aid. Don't wait until dire
necessity drives him to seek you
out. His spirit-so essential to
the maintenance of self-repect
is already somewhat broken
when he is forced to ask aims or
to request favor.
No, don't wait. Find out for
yourself; investigate. Make ju-
dicious inquiries among your
friends and neighbors. Do it
quietly, so as to avoid the posi-
bilities of offense.
For often those who suffer
the worst are the ones whose
pride prevents them from re-
vealing their true state of af-
fairs. Yet, it is just such highly
sensitiZed individuals that the
world needs the most.

DIR. Bisch's Daily Diet Hint

Delicate infants should be
given water between feelings.
This applies particularly to
breast-fed babies where the milk
supply is not adequate. The
water should invariably be boil
ed, then cooled. From two to
four teaspoonfuls may be given
each day. Water is even de-
sirable when the child is re-
ceiving adequate amounts Of
breast milk at each feeding.

bled, hoping to obtain a sec
ond trick for his side.
The opening lead was the 5
Of clubs. There was nothing
to the play. North spread his
hand, claiming one trick over
his contract, and doubled. He
had not dared to redouble. as
he was not certain that his dia-
monds would break, as one op-
ponent might hold four headed
by J-10, although the bidding
made him feel that South held
just one diamond. The declar-
ing side took 8 diamond tricks,
with a choice Of 5 tricks to win
from the 3 spade tricks and 3
club tricks held between them.
Instead of scoring a small
slam at diamonds, at only 20
points a. trick, they scored a
small slam at no trumps, with
the odd tricks worth 80 points.
The small slam premium of
500 points would have been the
same at either make. The add
ed trick scored at no trumps
probably would not have been
made at dimondS, as East would
most likely have taken his Ace
of hearts at the suit call. Six
tricks doubled at no trumps
Scored 30 points below the line,
with 100 points above for the
added trick won. and 500 points
for the small slam bid and
made. Quite an appreciable
gain over scoring the minor
make.
East played the following
hand at 6-Hearts, doubled. The
opening lead was the K of
spades. How many can he
make against any further de-
fenSe?

The Rhymins
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
Clear Eyed

Suddenly (none can say how)
From some dim region around us
Voices will fall on our ears,
Sounds that amaze and con-
found us;
Whispers that break through
our dreams,
Stirring us harshly and rudely,
Vexing our visions of ease,
Barring our selfishness crudely.
Dreams were the dearer by far,
Bright the mirageS we cherished;
Yet at breath (none knows
why)
Fancies long fostered have per.
iShed.
Clear-eyed at last we can go,
Seeing life's truth, not it's seem
ing;
Done with the false phantom
show,
Done with the folly Of dreaming!
Suddenly (none can say how
Comes the awakening that frees
us;
Braver and stronger we grow,
Seeing ourselves as God sees us.

INDIANAPOLIS has lost a good citizen and
l. a great educator IN the passing of Milo H
Stuart
Unassuming, kindly, helpful. he did great
work in great way asking no credit seeking
no fame. Children of this generation owe
him debt far beyond their realization as do
many fathers and mothers of the generation
now progressing toward middle age.
His accomplishments at Manual and Ar
senal Technical high schools were outstanding.
In the face of discouragements that would
have made less capable and conscientious
educator falter and surrender Mr.. Stuart car
ried on to achieve a success that has placed
the city in his debt for decades to come.
Before his death he had laid the corner
stone Of structure that may endure as his
greatest monument-the junior high school
plan for the city of Indianapolis. Mr. Stuart
played a major part in this advance in the
citys educational system and its success, in
large measure, Will be due TO his devoted
efforts.

HOW TO TEACH CHILDREN

EDUCATIONAL master minds, We are told,
II "dissected" the child this week while 1000
school teachers. gathered at the Teachers
college. Columbia university. listened.
The twelve speakers divided in the support
Of the traditional and progressive methods Of
teaching children. Professor Fitzpatrick stated
the case clearly:
In the progressive school, the child acts
as whole. and the response comes from in
side. In the traditional school. learning is a
succession OF added things"
Professor Rugg said: Il think the curriculum
Of the traditional school tends to inhibit
learning. not encourage it"
Whereupon Professor Bagley: Il see no
reason why the traditional subjects can not
be treated separately. but in a related way.
Using fact of geography in history course.
for instance. depends not on the curriculum.
but on the culture Of the history teacher"
In this last is a restricted hint of one
secret Of success in proper progressive educa-
ton The teacher should have the wide learn
ing and courage and sanction not only to
relate one subject TO another, but TO relate,
or enable the child to relate, the subject mat
ter learned TO his special interests and his
LIES experiences.

"owe debt to society" and should be treated
with medieval cruelty.
The Constitution OF the state is clear on
this point-"reformation" not revenge. The
Times did not write the Constitution II merely
is demanding that its provisions be lived up 70.
If the people Of this state want to go back
TO the Middle Ages for their methods Of deal
ing with small offenders they have a perfect
right TO do so. But they must change the
Constitution TO make it legal and we doubt
that they have any idea Of doing so. Hoosiers
have too much horse sense for that
Governor McNutt wisely changed the ad-
ministrative setup at the penal farm as soon
as he learned Of conditions there. He placed
Ralph Howard an experienced prison admin
istrator, in charge. Superintendent Howard
now has had ample time to decide what he is
going to do about conditions as revealed by
The Times.
This newspaper has presented evidence Of
unspeakable cruelty TO prisoners. 1t has shown
that apparently property belonging to the
state has been appropriated for personal use
by farm attaches.
These things are too grave to be passed
over in silence. II is time for the new super
intendent to tell the public what his plans are

ment on which all Indiana law is based.

WAR SPIRIT CAN WIN

A INVOLVEMENT from Washington of
the blanket code for all American in
dustry is in some ways the most encouraging
thing that has happened in this country in
years.
That is not so much because it offers a
new chance to wipe out the depression as
because it will enable us TO unite emotionally
in way that seldom is possible except in
war time
The drive 10 get cooperation in this code
is to be conducted just as the Liberty oan
and draft act drives were conducted during
the war. And in that fact there is something
extremely heart-warming
A great many people have remarked or the
singular fact that a nation usually is able to
focus its effort and its emotions on one point
only in time Of great danger.
Destructive and frightful as war is. 1t
usually is the only thing that can make
people feel truly united, the only thing that
can make them forget their differences, bury
self-interest. and work together in a common
cause.
1t often has been said that if only a people
could get together on peace-time project
with the spirit that is displayed in time Of
war. it could surmount almost any obstacle.
That is the chance open to lis now.
We are being asked to submerge selfish
interests for the common good; to be Amer
leans first and self-seeking individuals later:
to stand united for the sake of those fellow
citizens who have not yet had a fair break.
This brings us a great challenge and
great opportunity
1t is a challenge because it will test our
intelligence, our patriotism, and our endur-
ance just as deeply and just as truly as any
wartime emergency ever cid.
And it is an opportunity because it opens
the way to a new day in American history.
Upon the events of the next six months,
probably, will depend the fate Of our fight
to escape from the depression.
We can shape our future to suit ourselves;
and if we are as wise and brave as we like to
believe. we can pave the way for better.
