Impressions
Not Easily
Removed
Protect Children
From Harmful
Influences.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

THE children are dependent upon
their parents and teachers for pro-
lection from harmful influences.
Children do not understand about
such ideas as harmfulness, helpful
ness. education and experience. They
do not deal in distractions. but in the
immediate and concrete thing. That
is why it is the bounden duty of those
who have the welfare of children with
in their keeping to see to the effect OF
some of the present-day influences
that touch children.
Movies and plays, books and pic
lures, shows of all sorts, devices for
catching pennies, all must be dealt
with according to their effect on the
healthy growth of children. 1 do not
agree with those who say that 1t is
all right for boys to have play-guns
and to initiate the gangster plays they
saw on the screen.
Let them get it out of their sys-
TENS and that will cure them for
ever" they say.
NY point is this: Why put it into
their systems at all and then have to
watch them work it out of their sys-
tens? Children are not born with
the urge to go out and kill. They are
conditioned to that idea by their ex-
periences with the movies and the
other forces of amusement that have
been let loose on this afflicted land.
Why not condition them to more ac-
ceptable forms of behavior from the
start and save all the gun play, crime
play and the rest Of the horrible ex-
hibition?
A long experience with children
teaches me that once strong impress
sion is made on the mind of child
it is not easily erased. 1t may be sup
pressed and modified by experiences
through the years, but its stain is in
the memory, ready to rise into power
and influence when the time is ripe
or the call is strong enough. I prefer
not to set impressions that must be
wiped out again. 1t is better to set
good ones at the start, those that we
are willing to abide by and to have
the children live by.
1t is for the parents to say what
kind of entertainment the children
shall enjoy, what kind Of influences
they are to be subjected to. what kind
of principles of behavior they are to
learn. Children cannot go to movies
unless grown people make 1t possible.
They cannot have entertainment
without the consent Of their fathers
and mothers. They must live under
the influences and the teachings Of
home. The greatest influence in their
lives is that selected and administered
by their parents.
Fathers and mothers want their
children trained to righteous living.
but that takes a lot of doing one way
and another. Example for instance,
is bothersome. Leading the way is
arduous. Taking children instead of
sending them to where they ought to
be is wearying to the flesh. And yet?
One is either for or against decent
upbringing for children. One must
choose. The responsibility rests
squarely where it belongs.

Manners
of the
Moment

WE UNDERSTAND that there's
w quite a difference of : opinion
among stenographers as to what to
do when the boss is out. Some say
you should spend the whole time IN
the ladies' rest room smoking Gig
arettes. But the trouble with that is
that you have no way Of knowing at
lust which moment he is going to
return. And If you miss him, where
are you?
Others say you should have a good
novel in your desk drawer to work on
In the interims. That's all right If
there isn't some hawk-eyed dame In
charge of the Office who doesn't believe
in novels.
A few like to spend the time mani
curing their nails. But the men
around the Office somehow hate to
stumble over that sort of thing. They
say it makes them feel too much at
home
Personally we think some little hob
bv that can be done on the typewriter
would be the safest. For example,
YOU could write poetry. Or you could
make up slogans for thousand-dollar
prize contests. Or you could try draw
ing pictures with exclamation points
and Ks.
OF course, q very ambitious little
girl, with an hour of her boss time on
her hands, would probably practice
her tipping. But then not all good
men always come to the aid Of their
party.

DEAR MRS. POST: I have been

to wear during this late month? 1
have a lace dress and black satin
but Id like to take the mouSseline
one-it is deep rose and very be-
coming. But wonder whether I will
look out of season in an evening dress
made of this material.
Answer-This depends upon where
the springs are. The farther North
the less suitable Summer materials
would be, the farther South the bet
ter. North of Washington, for ex-
ample, mouSSeline- e-Soie would be
likely to look as out of season as Or

has many yards in the skirt the
flimsiness of texture, and on warm
evening it would probably look per-
fectly suitable

DEAR MRS. POST: We have
adopted a child, although there
can be no papers to make the adoption
legal for a year from now. Even
though this is the situation, will it be
proper for us to send the form you
have suggested to others for announc-
ing the adoption of baby?
Answer-You can't announce some-
thing that hasn't taken place! There
fore, If were you, wouldn't send out
any message at all, but would suggest
that you tell your friends as you see
them that little Jane is now living with
you and that you intend to adopt her
as soon as it is legally possible.

These Days You Can and Must
Judge a Man by His Clothes.

spend the balance of our lives happy
with one another? What can I do7
A HEART-SICK WIFE.
Answer-The only thing that you
can do LIS to 60 to your husband and
frankly and humbly confess your
faults. Tell him that you realize how
badly you have treated him, how over
bearing and dictatorial you have been:
that you did not realize the cruelty of
the way you were treating him and
that you only beg of him to give YOU
another change and let you try to mako
up to him for all that you have made
him suffer.
If he has single particle of affec-
ton left for you in his heart, this will
stir 1t into life again. For IL is human
to feel some tenderness for the re-
pentant sinner. 1t is Just a chance,
but it is your only chance.
You cannot expect to win your hus-
band back by the arts and viles you

not recreate an illusion once it has
been dispelled. You can never be
his dream girl again or bring back the
glory and circling wings of young
love. You have thrown all Of that
awas and you can never get ID back.
But you can win back your husbands
friendship and respect, and they are
we'll worth having. 1t is easy to
keep love, but Is almost impossible
to revive it once you have slain it,
and that is something that every wife
should remember.

The Old Gardener Says:

Dahlia tubers should be dug just
as soon as the frost has blackened
the tops of the plants. AS soon
as dug the punches of tubers
should be stood upside down in
a dry place until all the moisture
has drained out. They should
then be stood in the same upside
down manner in a box or bin and
covered with peat moss or sand.
1t is good idea to carefully dust
each clump with busting sulphur
to ward off rot and disease before
storing them. A vegetable cellar
is the ideal place for storing the
boxes of tubers If a vegetable
cellar is not available, q cool part
of the basement will do. II, how
ever, they must be stored in a
rather warm atmosphere. as in
the same room with the furnace
it is we'll to keep the boxes COW

string raisins on broom straws (pre-

insert ends in top of orange shells.
Stand one or two black cat figures,
made of ripe olives and raisins held
together with toothpicks, at side OF

Water should be added to mar
