SEVEN PRO FOOTBALL
TEAMS NEARING TITLE

NEW YORK, Nov. II. U.P)-Tht
wide-open battle for national pro-
fessional football league honors still
has seven teams-three in the east
ern division and four in the west
ern-in the race for the title. The
winners in each division will meet
in a championship playoff game.
The New York Giants, although
idle, regained the lead in the east
ern division when Pittsburgh up
set Brooklyn, with two touch
downs by Jim Levey, Pittsburgh
halfback, and a 25-yard field goal
by Armand Niccolai wiped out
BrOOklyn's early 7-point lead.
The Green Bay Packers held first
place in the west by drubbing the
Detroit Lions 31-7. -Four touch
downs, three on passes and one on
a run by George Sauer, and a field
goal by Clark Hinkle piled up the
Packers points.
By winning from Boston, 30-14,
the Chicago Bears held second
place half a game behind the
Packers. Bill Karr scored two
touchdowns on passes and Beattie
Feathers scored the other two,
one on pass and one on run.
A fourth period rally which netted
two touchdowns, one on blocked
punt and the other on a plunge by
Mike Mikulak, enabled the Chicago
Cardinals to beat Philadelphia, 1913,
and move into third place in the
west.

Psychology
RY DIR. JESSE w. SPROWLS.
Mind of the Child.

TN MOST respects the mind of the
child is essentially the same as
that of the adult. It would seem
that the educational psychologists are
wrong in trying to show that child
psychology and adult psychology are
essentially two different sorts of psy-
chology. Almost any difference that
you can point out may be explained
by reference to the meaning of ex-
perience.
To take an example: Children
usually confuse what they remember
with what they imagine. Adults are
usually able to make what passes for
a workable distinction. This distinc-
ton Is made on the basis of expert
ence. A memory carries warmth or
feeling of familiarity which does not
hold for the products of imagination.
Through experience. and experience
alone, the developing mind acquires
the ability to make the proper test
of the actualities of mental life as
opposed to the unrealities of fancy.
And yet it may be said that adults
never completely outgrow their child
ish confusion of memory and imag-
ination. For various reasons, our
memories fade more and more as we
grow older. In running back over
these experiences, adults are often
confronted with the problem OF
making a connected recollection. They
unconsciously use their imagination to
I'LL in the missing links.

Do not plant peony roots too
deep. Dig a hole a little larger
than the root Into it throw a
shovelful of good loan, then
plant roots about two inches be-
low the level ground.
Butter and sugar will cream
more quickly If a few drops of
warm water are sprinkled over

If cake Is to be baked a long
time it is wise to line the bottom
of pan with oiled paper.
Custard pies should be baked
in a hot oven for the first 10
minutes. The crust will then be
set and filling will not soak
through crust. Reduce heat after
first 10 minutes so that filling
will not boil.

Old London.

IS years Of age when, after the death
Of King Edward VI, her followers
caused her to be proclaimed queen.
Nine days later those who wanted
Mary to be the ruler made Jane a
prisoner and took her to the Tower.
Soon after Jane passed her 18th
birthday the fatal day came. Young,
pretty and bright-minded, she was a
pitiful figure aS she was led to the
scaffold.
Today the Tower Of London serves
as a museum. 1t contains the crown
jewels Of England, which all may see
under glass; and there is fine collec-
ton of old-time armor. I remember
seeing suit of armor which was made
for Henry VIII. 1t was very large, as
it had to be to f1t the bulky body Of
that King.
We may shudder when we think
Of the cruel deeds which we're done in
the Tower, and when we look at the
things which were used to torture
prisoners and make them confess
but we are cheered when we think that,
in many ways, the human race has
grown better.

BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
WE ARE loath to ascribe a child's
behavior to jealousy. Such an
emotion seems to be an adult one ap-
plicable only to adulthood. But the
emotion a child feels toward sisters,
brothers, parents and playmates diff
fers not one whit from that suffered
by adults in their family or love
relationships. And what is more the
child has less ability to argue himself
out of the emotion, since he is ig-
norant of the source Of his suffering
The commonest example of childish
jealousy is that offered by the nose
out of joint older child when a new
baby arrives in the family. We know
the looks of jealousy, but we are not
always prepared for the behavior
which accompanies 1t.
The inexplicable incorrigibility, even
Of children old enough to be reasoned
with: the open dislike of new baby,
or the menacing desire and efforts to
harm it, the older child's adoption of
all kinds of dependent habits, which
heretofore have been abandoned, are
pointedly indicative Of jealousy.
Children should be prepared for ex-
pected babies and become accustomed
10 their new place in the family.
Parents should recognize that jeal-
ously is born of a feeling of inferiority
and that all of the child's behavior
mirrors his efforts to pull himself to
position of superiority to this new in
dividual who has robbed him of 1t.
Offer the older child the position of
independent, self-reliant, loved helper
and then his resentment and jealousy
will disappear and with it the un-
desirable behavior.

England, visited the famous
Tower Of London" and I
went there again during a
later trip. 1t is famous and interest
ing sight and is seen by thousands Of
tourists each year.
There are 13 towers, not just one;
and they were set up during a long
period in English history. There is a
legend that Julius Caesar built fort
on the spot.
The first tower of which we have
certain record was planned by Bish-
op Gundulf, and was built during
the reign Of william the Conqueror.
1t is known as the White Tower, and
has a central position.
In the White Tower are rooms where
Sir Walter Raleigh spent 13 years as
a prisoner Raleigh was sent there
by order of King James I, but was
allowed to have his family and SER
wants with him. While in prison he
wrote a one-volume History of the
World"
Many Of the other prisoners at the
Tower Of London we're not treated so
well. They were kept in dungeons
and some were tortured.
Queen Anne Boleyn, second wife
Of King Henry VIII, was imprisoned
in the Tower; and not long afterward
she was put to death.
Before coming to the throne Eliza
beth was kept in the Tower for two
months by order of her elder sister,
Queen Mary.
Another and far worse deed during
Marys reign was the sending Of Lady
Jane Grey to the Tower of London
and the passing Of the death sentence
against her. This unhappy prisoner
was Of royal descent, and had good
claim TO the throne. She was only
