Children and Death

Bobby Dicks mother wouldn't
allow him to have a dog because of
the grief that comes when the pet
dies. But the risk Of losing a pet,
says Mrs. 7Faegre, 'is foolishly ex-
laggerated if we think thus to
keep our children from meeting
sorrow and disappointment. There
is an element of training here that
will not come amiss if we are try
ing to help our children face. real
tiles with courage. And surely it
is less sad to talk perfectly ma
turally about a dead pet than to
avoid all mention of the POSSIBLE
ity of death-which the child none
the less knows is to be reckoned
within
The first time that Mary Brown,
aged five, was taken to funeral,
she enjoyed tremendously the new
cap and scarf she wore, the pretty
flowers and music, the ceremony,
and the attention. She didn't think
much about the aunt whose funer-
al it was; after all, aunt Mary often
went away for long periods Of time.
But the next time it was a little
playmate who was sleeping, so
white and quiet, in the big box, and
Mary couldn't understand why she
didn't wake up. She asked Mother
over and over again whats dy-
ing?" but still she didn't under
stand. When they took the big
box out to the cemetery, Mary and
her mother went along.
'fSee dear, they just put the box
into the ground and cover it UP
and Betty will sleep for long,
long time" her mother explained.
For several days after that, Mary
didn't feel very good, and she woke
up screaming once or twice. Her
mother found her, about an hour
after she'd been put to bed, lying
tense, her fists clenched, eyes wide
and staring. I'm scared to go to
Sleep" she sobbed, "'cus I might
sleep for a long, long time an then
they'd put me in a box in the
ground!"
Mary had never been prepared
for the inevitable contact with
deah; explanations now when the
experience had become so intensely
personal, were difficult and be-
wildering.
We cannot protect children from
all sadness, and If we were to at
tempt it, we might easily overstep
the mark Of precaution and bring
about mysterious fears. The simp-
lest way with which children be-
come acquainted with the facts Of
birth and death is by watching
bird, insect and plant life, under
the interesting guidance of parents
who make simple, truthful expla-
! nations, and who are able to point

KEY WEST, Fla, July key West,
the City of Cisterns, pins much of
its hope for revival of past glories on
the building of grea oversee bridges
to close the remaining gaps in the
ribbon of road that has its start in
Maine.
For years citizens of this city, that
gathers its water supply from the
skies alone. have pounded away at
various agencies trying to sell the
dream of an international highway
joining the two Americas-with Key
West as the connecting link.
Now, with the city and surrounding
county on their own petition, in the
hands of Federal Emergency Relief
Administration, chances for obtaining
Federal loan for bridges are looked
upon by the citizenry as being excel
lent.

For how, they ask, from officials to

a great tourist center without tapping

Ferries now carry automobiles across
these gaps, but the tedium of the long
water journey, plus necessity for max
ing accurate connections, have, officials
say, deferred motorists.

those who think bridges are prerequi-

Contract for Sewage Dis.
posal Plant, However,
Goes to Lowest Bidders.

Washington may expect a goodly
portion Of the s8.500, 900 allotted for
the sewage disposal project authorized
by the p. w. A. to be spent within its
borders, although under the competi-
tive bidding system to be used the
various contracts must go to the low
est responsible bidders, whether local
concerns or not.
Out of the $500 900 it is expected
that about $5,000,00O will be spent on
buildings and 81 500 900 on machinery,
and the remaining 100000 on sewer
and water connections, road building
and landscaping, according to Engi-
neer Commissioner John c. Gotwals.
All Of the machinery will be bought
from out Of the city, since none of it
Is manufactured here.
Probably half of the cost of the
building will go to local labor, regard
less of who gets the contract. Under
P. w. A. rules the workmen must be
selected from the employment rolls
at the local employment center or
from the rosters of local organized
labor.
The profits Of the building contract,
II any. will remain in Washington,
of course. only if a local contractor
submits the low bid. Maj. Gotwals
said, however. that there are many
local contracting firms adequately
equipped and stated to handle the
building and installation Of the ma
chinery.
Road contracts stand a good chance
OF going to local concerns, who have
obtained most OF the road contracts
Under former P. w. A. grants. The
sewer connection contracts, on the
other hand. will probably go to out
of-town concerns, as these seem to
have a knack of submitting low bids
on District sewer construction Jobs.
All figures quoted above are tenta-
tive only. offered by Maj. Gotwals as
rough appr oximations based on ex-
perience. The plans for the job,
which is expected to get under way
this Fall, have only been started, and
accurate cost estimates are not yet
available. Every effort is being made,
however, to speec along the work and
let the various contracts which will
