 Chicago, July S--(UPl-Omcial confirmation of crop damage in Canada swung wheat prices still lliRher today in the bull market that has swept futures values up 2S cents a bushel in as many days.

 Confusion in the wheat pit on the Chicago board of trade was aggra- vated by conflicting weather reports from Canada, but the Canadian gov- ernment weekly crop report and private dispatches confirmed earlier reports of damage to wheat and stimulated a heavy buying naove-

mo. Certainly not. Don't be Silly"
why isn't the moonlight warm?
It isn't. I sat in it and it was
Just as cold as cold. It's funny about
the moon"
"Oh, the moon has no heat. Run
along and do your lessons"
About four years later the same
boy, now 13 years old. was told.
There's a planetarium down town.
"Yeah?"
"It's wonderful. You ought to see
it. You can see how the sun and the
moon and the earth and all the stars
in heaven work. It's great. You
ought to see II"
Yeah? Where are you going this
afternoon? There's a game on in
the big lot. I'm going over"
This child has lost one Of his most
valuable assets-his curiosity. Long
ago when he was little. it was strong
within him. 1t drove him to explore
and search, to poke into every cor
ner, to try to uncover secret things.
He asked questions Of all he met and
to most Of them he got short answers.
BY and by he understood that this
questioning, searching attitude was
termed snoopy" and rated as bad
manners. He kept his questions to
himself and finally they were covered
with a mat of silence. 1t did not
matter any more whether there Is
man in the moon or not.
This Is too bad. Curiosity, that
force which drives men to question
and search and discover, Is the driving
force of growth. It is in response to
its hunger for news Of the world and
its doings that makes progress pos
sible. 1t Is behind every invention
and discovery, behind every creative
work. To restrain it to the point Of
extinction Is to take from q child one
of the greatest aids to growth. It
ought to be possible to guide child
to legitimate searches instead Of
wiping out his power to search.
When a child asks about the moon
it is easy to say, II know very little
about 1t except that it Is beautiful.
It Is q cold dead world hanging In
the sky. It reflects the light Of the
sun. It has no light, no heat of its
own. 1t Is a mysterious thing and
poets love to write about it. One of
the strange powers it has Is the con-
troll of the tides. Here's a little book
that tells you something about it,
and your teachers can maybe tell you
some more"
Help the child follow the lead Of his
curious, questioning mind because that
Is the power on which he must move
If he is to get beyond the spot where
he stands. It Is q terrible thing to
treat child in such a fashion as to
destroy his interest in the man in
the moon, the shadows in the water
and the strange ways of this magic
sphere we call earth.

Dorothy Dix Says
When We Lose Our Self-Respect We
Begin to Degenerate.

Am I IN love drastically. hopeleSsly.
deeply? Will 1t last? Is there any
cure for it? Will it wear off in time?
What shall I do? This is my first
experience. p. M.
Answer: Cheerio, my child. Don't
be alarmed. You are In no danger.
Girls who are suffering from their
first heart attacks always think that
they are fatally stricken, but they
soon find out that it was only a pass
ing indisposition that they recover
from in a few days, and that before
they know 1t they are up and about
and able to take an interest in some
new boy.
DON'T put too much on your symp.
~ toms of love as you diagnose
them. To a dispassionate listener
they sound more like an indication
of softening of the brain than the
grand passion. But that's a mistake,
too, because girls who go about in a
daze as you say you do, and who tie
blue ribbons on cigarette butts that
have been smoked by some sallow-
faced youth, and treasure them, and
who see a hero Of romance in some
freckled face lad whose voice Is
changing, do recover from their tenn
porary mental deluSions and grow up
to be sensible women. But it's bad
while it lasts. And terrible on the
girls family.
OF course, in time the violent at
tacks Of first love do wear of, but
for a quick remedy that will cure al
most instantaneously, find some other
boy who is better-looking and has a
keener conversational line than the
one with whom you think you are In
love. DOROTHY DIX.

NEAR MISS DIX: am bachelor
in my late thirties. Since my
college days have been in love with
a girl who married my best friend.
Both she and he knew this and it
makes a miserable situation for us
all No woman can even possess as
much as she does Of my heart, but
I want to marry and settle down and
have a fine woman for companion.
have met a woman who think could
fill this bill. I could give her a COM
Portable living and deep friendship.
Do you think I would be wrong in
marrying her, even if told her be-
forehand that she could never have
such a large part Of my heart as this
other woman? ALFRED.
Answer: Have you ever thought Of
yourself as the victim Of sentimental
hooey? A lot of people are, You know.
A man falls in love with a girl in his
early youth and he goes along idealiz-
ing her and building her up into
an ideal of perfection that she never
was and nursing his own broken heart
long after every vestige Of the wounds
in it have healed, and he is just as
neurotic as the people who coddle
imaginary Ill health, and refuse to
get well.
My advice to you Is to snap out Of
the maudlin sentimental condition you
have got into. Realize that your
unrequited love burned down to ashes
years ago. Sweep the debris into the
fireplace and marry this nice woman
you have found. But don't ever. ever
tell her about the other woman and
how much you loved her.

The Old Gardener Says:
When the gardening season Is

When the gardening season Is
over, all tools should be stored
away in a clean condition. Scrape
all the metal parts, clean and rub
them dry with q rag. Wipe over
the blades and handles with an
oily rag. It will be wise to apply
a few drops of oil to the points
Of clippers and shears after they
have been cleaned. All these
tools can be conveniently stored
in a tool shed or garden house If
one has a rack Of some kind on
which to hang them. Such a
rack can be made easily by boring
holes in q heavy board into
which 8-inch pegs are driven.
Fasten the board to the wall or
rafters. Spring invariably catches
the home gardener mapping. Lawn
mowers are in need of repair or
are dull. To avoid this. clean the
lawn mower thoroughly this Fall.
Give it a thorough oiling and
send it to reliable firm to have
the blades sharpened and the
machine overhauled. Store the
lawn mower in q dry place. When
the wheelbarrow is put up for the
Winter, apply . few drops Of oil
to the axle.
