IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory Of. my dear father,
John H. Ennis, who passed away two
years ago, January 4, 1888.
Deep in the heart lies a picture
Of a loved one laid to rest,
In memory's frame, I shall keep it,
Because he was one Of the best.
Sleep on dear father and take your
rest.
God called you home, He thought
it best;
He saw your suffering, He was great,
And opened wide the golden gate.
By his loving daughter,
Lola E. Pruitt.

; Editors Quit Jobs
Rather Than Accept
YuIe Bonus Of S2.5C

NEW YORK, Dec. 81. - Three
members of the editorial staff OF
E. P. Dutton g. Co., Inc, publish
ers, resigned on Tuesday after re-
fusing to accept Christmas gifts OF
$3.50 each, which, according to
Merton S. Yewdale, editor-in-chief
were the same as those received
by the lowest paid clerk" and
were incompatible with our posi-
tions as editors"
Those who left the Dutton staff
in addition to Mr.. Yewdale, were
Samuel Middlebrook and Miss
Louise T. Nicholl. associate ed1-
tors. John Macrae, president OF
the firm, who himself accepted
one of the envelopes containing
$3.50 that were given to every
empolye of the house, refused "
remark on the situation.
Mr.. Yewdale said that he and
the other editors had accepted
the Christmas gift in past years
when it was $40 to every employe
and that last year he pocketed
the gift envelope without question
and when he opened it an hour
later to find that it contained
only $3.50, felt that it was too late
to protest.
The envelopes for Mr.. Yewdale
Mr.. Middlebrook and Miss Nicholl
were returned to Mr.. Macrae, and
he summoned them to his office
and told them, according to Mr.
Yewdale, that they would accept
the gifts or he would accept their
destinations.

CHILD FEARS
OVERCOME

"A penetrating analysis of the
fears of young children" and
means of overcoming those fears
are included in a study published
by DrS. Arthur T. JerSild and
Frances B. Holmes of the Child
Development Institute of Teach.
erS College, New York.
The authors report, after ex.
amining several hundred chill
dren, that the most important
factor in overcoming a child's
fears is his own growth and in.
creased experience.
Certain fears. however, may
last until adulthood unless the
child is helped by his parents to
overcome them, the doctors as
Sert. They suggest the following
methods be used to overcome fear
in children:
If they are afraid of darkness,
show them how to control the
lights; if they are timid in the
presence of other children, en-
courage them to take part in
more games and sports; if they
are afraid of a policeman, join
with them in talking to a police
man to show how baselesS their
fears are.
Many characteristic fears OF
the two-year-old child are out
grown by the age of five, Drs
Jersild and Holmes declare. They
add, however, that several things
that do not frighten a child in
his infancy may produce fear
when his powers of diScrimina
tion have matured.
