Children should be taught to avoid
this discourtesy and waste.
There was time when all writing,
all records. were written by hand, and
how beautifully clear those records
are. They were important and the
clerks who inscribed them gave their
best efforts to the work. People prided
themselves on writing good hand.
II one wrote a poor hand the implica-
tion was that he was unlettered, an
ignorant sort of person.
With the increase of business and
the introduction of machines speed
was demanded. Many people thought
that speed excused illegibility and

signing their names so that nobody

M possessing their children's S
condolences No mother SO
4 proud as the one who can
boast that her children tell her every
thing they think they think. and no
! mother so chagrined as the one whose
children keep their thoughts and
plans to themselves.
1t is a common thing to hear a
woman say that a mother has q
right to her childrens condolences
and to have them talk over everything
of us have right to invade the
privacy Of any other human being. no
matter what relationship they bear to
us. What our husbands and wives
our children. our friends tell us of
their affairs. and especially of their
inner lives. is OF their own volition. 1t
Is nothing that we have q right to
pry into.
Whether children confide In their
mothers or not depends on two things:
First, on the nature OF the child
Whether 1t is garrulous or not. There
are children who are little chatter
boxes, who love the sound of their
own voices and who babble about
everything they think and see and
hear, while other children are reticent
and quiet Talking is always dif11cult
to them and they instinctively hide
what they think and feel In the inner
recesses of their souls.
HE main reason, however, that
children do not confide In their
mothers, as their mothers SO ardently
desire them to do. is because they so
often find out that mother isn't to be
trusted with a secret. She doesn't
deal honorably with a confidence.
When little Johnny confides to mother
that 1t was he and not the cat who
ate the cookies. or that he broke
neighborS window with his ball,
mother Furnishes him for it. Hence
little Johnny. not being a moron, soon
adopts the cynical theory that what
mother doesn't know doesn't hurt her
and he ceases to supply her with the
Information that is his undOing.
And another reason that children
are not confidential with their moth
ers Is because mothers don't respect
their condolences. From bitter ex-
perience they find out that mother Is
tattletale. She tells father and
grandma and the aunts and all the
formidable company of grown-ups the
artless tale that Johnny has told her
In deepest secrecy and they tease him
about 1t. She makes story that sets
the dinner table In q roar over some
shy confidence that Mamie has whis-
pered to her.
And Johnny and Mamie have had
their lesson. Never again will they
tell anything to q woman who blabs
and who holds them Up as figures of
fun for people to laugh at. Many a
mother who beats herself up in vain
against the wall Of silence that her
children have built between her and
them has only herself to blame. She
sealed their lips against her.

TOO HIGH
FOR EDITORS

COLLEGE PARK, Md. April 10.
Editors of the University of Mary
land student publications encoun"
tered unexpected difficulties in
selecting their successors for next
year when it was revealed that
recent ruling by the Student
Government Association in an ef-
fort to raise the eligibility require
ments had been made too strict.
AS a consequence, at least two
high editorial offices are likely
to go untitled next year.
This year ruling went into
effect requiring student editors
to have a scholastic average of
nearly 80 for the year preceding
their term of office. When the
list of students eligible was drawn
up last week, 1t was revealed that
no one otherwise eligible for the
offices Of editor-in-chief of the
Terrapin year book and sports
editor of the Diamondback, cam
pus newspaper, could pass the
scholastic hurdle.
Apparently, all other editorial
offices will be filled, provided
those eligible maintain their pres
ent averages. Heretofore, the only
scholastic requirement for publ
cations men has been the will of
the respective deans of the univer-
Sity.

began her public career in the
military office Of the Scottish
government during the World
War, subsequently migrating to
the United States to work more
than a decade for the Railroad
Administration, a unit that has
now passed out of existence.
Born in Perth, Scotland, Mrs.
Lakewood has interesting COM
parsons in regard to the differ
ence between work for the British
civilian service and the American
Civil Service. She said today that
a salary of two pounds weekly,
approximately ten dollars, is con-
sidered reasonable, and that
rental conditions in the British
Isles allow leasing of the better
type of houses for not more than
500 yearly.
British government workers, she
added, work from 9 until S, with
an hour for lunch, and receive
two weeks annual leave, but no
sick allowance. In addition to re-
tirement provisions, however, they
must ''kick in" to an insurance
fund that provides for possible
illness.
Mrs. Lakewood is at present ap.
pointment clerk for the employe
association, and has taken out the
necessary papers for American
