Remember
Your Own
Childhood
Special "Technique"
Needed in Training
Adolescents.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

| WHENEVER you are shocked by the
behavior of child, go to a quiet
place and do little remembering
There was a time. not so long ago,
when you were child. and did shock
ing things, things that perhaps make
you shudder on remembering. Things
you perhaps hope people have for
gotten.
Then in memory of this dead and
gone self. deal kindly with the mis-
taken, misguided child before you.
Many of the things little child does
are childish. true expressions of his
truthful, natural savage self. He
enjoys pulling the cats tail and hear
ing her yowl. He breaks your treas
ured belongings for the fun of hearing
them scrunch under his feet He
stamps and hoWls and makes the place
ring with his yells because he loves
noise and wild activity. He has not
the remotest idea of how you feel, and
couldn't be made to understand your
feelings. He sees you are angry and
he is afraid, but beyond that there
is little to tell him about your world
His own is too much for him and he
cannot be expected to get far in the
grown-up one just yet.
The same thing is true of the adol-
escent child He often shocks you,
makes you lie awake at night, trem-
bling for his safety. Yet. if you will
but think back few years you will
see yourself doing the very same
things, and worrying your own father
and mother in the same heartless
fashion. You craved experiences that
were denied you and you stole them
when you could, let the consequences
be what they might. You did the
awful things you did because you be-
lieved them to be thrilling, exciting,
pleasant things to do and not because
you were defying God and the church
and home and society. Your adoles-
cent child is in precisely that atti-
tude today.
After remembering, 1t is time to
begin work on the error that is ex-
pressing itself in the child. Your atti-
tude will be understanding so that
the child can hear. mentally, what
it is you want to tell him. This is
important, for many times children
hear words with their ears, but be-
cause no mental contact has been
established, they cannot hear with
their minds and the word that might
have helpsd SO much is lost.
Mistakes must be set right. Children
must be corrected. If persuasion does
the work, well and good, but if it
fails we cannot excuse ourselves and
say we did our best. We must see our
responsibility through, use authority,
power. force when necessary to save
a child from his ignorance. You need
never be afraid of using your full
authority when you must if you have
carefully adjusted your mind to the
chiid's mind. 1t is only when you
rush blindly, in anger, as an outraged
parent, that your authority arouses
resentment and anger and rebellion.
Remember your own youth. Then,
with the full knowledge of your own
irregular growth, speak to the grow
ing child and you will be heard gladly.

The wife, therefore, who gives OF
her love and devotion and loyalty the
utmost possible, will arouse equal love
and devotion and loyalty in her nus
band. He will continue to be devoted
even when the years have changed
her and she no longer has the youth
and prettiness that first attracted
him.
am always very much amused at
the advice given women to look al
Turing and glamorous for their huS-
bands. Every man wants, of course.
to have his wife look as attractive as
possible, but that Is never the thing
to "hold" him. One has only to look
at the beauties that fill the Reno
divorce courts to realize that.
It is a thing of the spirit that makes
happy married love possible. It is
nothing that can be found in beauty
lars or bottles. And the woman who
radiates love and warmth and devo-
ton will be alluring to her husband,
no matter what she looks like.
The woman who is a. wife in every
sense of the word, who gives every
thing that she can-material and
mental, physical and spiritual-will
find that hbiding love is hers.

Dorothy Dix Says
Falling in Love With Teacher Is Bad
Business for 17-Year-Old Boy.

keep your sweet secret in your heart
for the next five years until YOU are
in position to name the wedding day
when you pop the question. Then it
won't be to teacher. 1t will be to some
girl OF your own age.
DOROTHY DIX.
nEAR MISS DIX: The first time
met certain man he began max
ing ardent love to ne. laughed it
off as I have the casual lovemaking
that any girl in her senses knows
doesn't mean anything. But this mans
Wooin9 was so inpetuous and his
Darling, I love you, love you, love
you' so convincing that he swept me
OIL my feet and fell in love with him,
Then, without rhyme or reason, he
threw me over. Told me over the
telephone that he was sorry and he
hoped he hadn't hurt me, but that it
mad just been case of passing in
fatuation and he had gone back to
MS former sweetheart. Don't you
think something ought to be done to
man who deliberately wins a girls
heart and wrecks her life Just for fun?
FRANCINE.
AnsWer-I surely do, but what? In
strict justice, he should be made to
suffer all the heartaches, the dis
appointment, the humiliation that he
has inflicted on the girl, but there is
no way this can possibly be done.
There is no way to stop the recreant
lover who kisses and rides away.
Occasionally a woman tries to
avenge herself on the man who
has Tilted her by suing him for breach
OF promise, but philanderers so seldom
have any money that this is generally
a meaningless gesture that only re-
suits in making her a laughing stock
for the public
So it all sums up into saying that
those who play the love game must
realize that it is a gambling game
and be prepared to take it's risks.
They must bear in mind that the
game is not always on the square, that
often its cards are stacked, its dice
loaded. that those they play with are
often buffers and cheaters. Knowing
this, if they still elect to sit in the
game, they must take their chances.
If they lose, they must take their luck
like good sports. pay up and shut up.

read in a book somewhere that hair
pulling is a good thing, stimulates the
circulation through the scalp and pro-

article by a hairdresser says to pull
the hair oneself or get some good
friend to do it for you. Yet medi-
cal student spoke to says it definitely
interferes with nourishment at the

I, too, have heard these conflicting
theories and do feel that hair-pulling
is a decidedly unnatural way of stim-

far from gentle. My advice would be
that brushing and massage are far
more gentle, soothing and beneficial.

II years old and have just
graduated from high school.
- ! have fallen very much in
love with my teacher, who is II years
older than I am. She has been my
inspiration and has done everything
she can to stimulate me and help me,
and I owe my high marks to the
fact that was trying to please her.
Shall tell her that love her and
that I will never care for any other
woman and ask her to wait for me
until I have finished the course in
aviation am taking and am able to
marry? r. H.
Answer-Well, no, son, I shouldn't
mention the state of my affections to
teacher If were you, because if you
do you will spoil beautiful friend
ship. For, you see, you and teacher
will not look at this emotional crisis
in your life from the same standpoint.
To you it Is fhe most vital thing in
the world at this moment. To her
1t Is just phase of adolescence that
she has seen thousand times and
that she knows will soon pass. She
will be lot more likely to laugh at
calf love than to take it seriously and,
If she does, it will give you a wound
from which you will never recover.
Nearly every boy falls in love with
his teacher. Psychologists tell us it
is hangover from his mother love.
1t is the little boy in him that looks
up to some woman who is older and
wiser and more experienced in the
world than he is, and, if the object
OF this first love is good woman,
1t is an invaluable experience for him.
The older woman can fire his ambi-
tion, fix his ideals, save him from
many of the tollies of youth and set his
feet on the upward instead of the
downward path of life.

MANY a man who smiles when he
recalls his boyish passion for
Miss Sally or Miss Mary has a little
catch in his throat as he remembers
the tact with which she handled the
situation and how she kept him from
making ridiculous spectacle of him
self, and how she used all of her
influence over him for his own bet
terment.
But it is a tragic thing when a
boys first love is a woman much
older than himself who is a philan-
derer. There are many such women,
vain, selfish, hirtatiouS, who find it
amusing to play with boys heart
as cat does with a mouse.
Then when they tire of the game,
that is so real to him and such make
believe to them, they throw him aside
as carelessly as they would an old
glove, without thought of what they
have done to the boy, who is left
hardened, disillusioned, with his faith
in love and women shattered forever.
So. son. don't tell teacher that you
love her and want to marry her. Just

Grease the measuring cup be-
fore measuring sirup or molasses

If in breaking eggs into a mix

fore, wise to always break one
egg at a time into a cup before
putting it into the mixing bowl.
