INTEREST in pewter ware, accord
ing to collectors and dealers, has
Jagged during the last few years.
II you have been secretly coveting q
few pieces, now is the time to ''snoop"
around. Many amateurs who started
collecting 10 years or so ago to be
in the race have taken their erstwhile
treasures to the little shops around
the corner, leaving them behind for
new love" The recently revived
and exciting chase of penny banks is
perhaps claiming their enthusiasm.
Strangely enough. this Is the item Of
current interest among collectors! One
bank official in New York has already
a collection that even the Metropolitan
Museum would be proud 10 harbor.
The banks are fun TO hunt for-thev
are found in the most unexpected
places. All sorts of curious char
acter shapes are being unearthed.
To get back to the pewter. however
Candlesticks, urns. goblets. plates
platters, bowls and pitchers should
be just as useful now as they were
when they we're first made. Even as
merely decorative pieces for the den
or living room pewter is always in
teresting and nothing can compare
with it as the perfect example of
early American craftsmanship. One
clever pewter enthusiast We know
has utilized some Of the finer plates
of pewter by making stunning side
light refiectors! You can imagine
how effective they are when polished
to a dull sheen.
ODD pieces of fine old china-luster.
Spode, milk glass. etc, are in
triguing, too. and. though they seem
somewhat useless as abstract pieces,
they may become servicea BILE again

Spode sugar bowl for instance, makes
stunning flower receptacle, or COM
pote dish. Butter pat plates become
ash trays; mugs and odd cups-those
with rare old designs and coloring-

tureens may be used as punch bowls
or curry dishes. Wine coasters make
stunning fruit and flower holders

are really little gems.

ly. have great appeal in the modern
setting. They are considered quite
valuable now. because they are becom-
ing scarce In the more modern town
shops you will find them already re-
touched. The restored ones bring
handsome prices, Of course.
If you are artistically talented or
know of some one who can faithfully
reproduce the original designs and
color of the trays, then you should
stop at the country shop and search
for those that are kept on forgotten
shelves-ruSty and dusty. The larger
the tray, the better. Square ones were
more popular than the round or oval,
so they will be easier 10 find.

ONCE upon time, so the old stories
" 60, the Canary Islands were in
habited by evil spirits. They lived In
the mouth Of an extinct volcano. But
the islands export was and is q
bundle of happiness. viz. the canary
bird. Under ordinary circumstances
he can spread more sunshine in the
shortest length of time than anything
twice his size and shape, regardless OF
the evil spirits in his family closet.
The Hartz Mountain Rollers are the
sweetest singers and were first devel-
oped and trained in Germany. The
old German system seems to be about
the best and Is still used An older
canary called the "Campaninis" is
picked out for the music master and
instructs the young birds, starting
when they're about 10 weeks old. BY
the time they're 6 months old they're
well on their way to being artists in
their own right.
No matter what Dickies nationality
is he still needs good treatment to
make him a joyous bird. This means
a large cage. at least 18 inches across
and high in proportion. His swings
and perches should be round and
about as wide as Iced pencil. Clean
sand belongs on the bottom of the
cage. He must have some sailor in
him because it has been noticed that
canaries thrive more If the sand is
from the seashore. 1t may be because
1t Is dustless. Anyway, on that next
trip to the beach bring bit of 1t
back to him.
In the Summertime he likes his
bath every morning, thank you! But

pose. He may do as does one canary

AnSwer-I doubt if there is any
crime that a human being can COM
nit that is greater than spelling a
child, for its consequences are so 6is-

for the poor victim Of parental folly

IT is the spoiled children whose
foolishlv fond fathers and mothers
never controlled them, never taught
them any respect for the rights of
others. never denied them anything
they wanted: who never knew any law
excepting their own wills. who fill our
prisons and keep our divorce courts
busy and who form the derelicts and
failures Of society.
1t is the disciplined people, the
men and women who have been taught
from infancy to control their pas
sions and their desires and to do the
right thing because it is the right
thing whether they want to dc it or
not: the men and women who have
been taught to give and take, to play
fair and walk humbly, who have had
good manners drilled into them at
their mothers knees, who are equip
ped to fight the battle Of life and
win out.
The spoiled child is always hope
lessly handicapped because his train
ing has untitled him for this. It has
