Authority Is
At Times
BY ANGELO PATRI.

"R1TsEy wants coffee, mother"
mo. no, Bitsey doesn't want
coffee. Babies don't have coffee. Ba-
bies have milk"
"Bitsey wants coffee like grandma.
"Oh, give her a little, just color her
milk to please her" says grandma.
mo, no." says mother firmly; no
coffee for babies"
Later in the day, when sister Helen,
aged nine, comes home from school,
she has a sandwich and apple. while
her mother has tea. The meal finished,
the child says. Can have a cigarette,
mother?"
little girl having a cigarette? Little
girls don't smoke. Smoking isn't for
infants like you. Go along now and
play on the Circle with the other little
girls"
Mother was right, of course. Bit
sey doesn't need coffee and Helen
does not need the cigarette. But both
Of them kept right on wanting what
they wanted, and to their disappointed
minds was added another feeling. They
disliked their station in life, fretted at
the degree of growth they had at
tanned and longed for the time to come
when they could be grown up and do
what grown-up people did and had
so much fun doing.
Some of that feeling is necessary.
A child must long to grow up because
that longing will help him to do so.
but it seems to me that he ought to
have a finer incentive for growth than
the hope of taking on the less valu-
able characteristics of maturity. I
have come to feel that the girls and
boys Of adolescent growth do some
harmful things simply because for
years and years they have been told,
Little boys and girls don't do that"
Their inference is. big ones can, and
do. 50 I'll hurry up to be big, so that
I can have fun"
It might be better to change the
emphasis . little. would like to try
the effect Of saying, "Only older people
do that" and accent the oldness. Be-
ing old rarely attracts children. They
are clever enough to value their youth.
Some instinct tells them that age Is
no great asset.
Then praise healthy youth. Every
time you can slip in . word of praise
for child's healthy color, his glow
ing health. his fine work which Is the
product Of his clear brain, do it. But
be tactful about it. Children, little
and big, flee from those who would
do them good. They accept the casual
word, the good intent, the friendly
action, but resent the invasion of their
personalities by preaching, moraliz-
ing and compulsion.
There are times when one has to
say mo" with authority. Those times
are few. and II all the other times
have been met With gracious under
standing, with the right emphasis on
the right word, the rare NO viii Be
accepted and respected.

Dorothy Dix Says
A CHEEKY Letter That Answers
Questions Always Welcome.

OF prudence and then telephone their
heart throbs.
There is still another letter which
should never be written and that is
the one in which wives write to their
husbands, and mothers to their chill
dren, about how lonely they are with
out them and how they miss them and
how they spend their time weeping
and counting the hours until they re-
turn, which takes the last bit of gimp
out of those who must be separated
from those they love.
What, then. should a letter be? 1t
should answer questions. 1t should
tell the little homely happenings in
which We all are interested. And it
should be full Of cheer. A warm
hand reached out across the space that
divides us from our correspondent.

ing grocer. This business of age is
ewfully discouraging at times!
Having torn myself away from this
port of call, proceeded to look over
the more prosaic fields of meats, fruits.
vegetables, etc. ! find that, as usual,
there is little to get excited about;
beef and pork hold their own, while
lamb goes gamboling wee bit higher.
Poultry is easing up somewhat, with
stewing fowl good buy. Rabbits, of
course are still with us-and how!
Fish is fine. although I am dis
couraged about the size of the oysters
this year. They all seem to be run
ming to vest-pocket editions.
EGGPLANT steps we'll out in front
as a good vegetable buy this week
end. A large. firm one, priced in the
vicinity of 10 cents, will feed the
family nicely. Oysterplant (salsify to
you) and celeriac are also cheap and
very good. If you like parsnips Il
can't stand them), they are also eX-
tremely reasonable. and, I suppose,
parsnip lovers would find them excel
lent. Nice baby okra. firm tomatoes,
Brussels sprouts and snowy caulif1ower
offer further suggestions that will not
strain the budget too much. Florida
grapefruit are coming in in splendid
lots.
To return to meats just for a
moment. If you are not acquainted
with the English dish of grilled mar
row bones you are missing a treat and,
incidentally, mighty inexpensive
one. Ask your butcher to cut you
large marrow bones, one to each per-
son. They should be from the big
end of the bone, and they will cost
around 10 cents apiece Have him
scrape them outside and polish them
of so that they are neat and trim.
Set them in pan and bake in a hot
oven for Is minutes. Top each one
with a broiled mushroom and serve
on rounds of toast. Pass small egg
spoons or even salt spoons with them,
so that the marrow in the center of
the bone may be easily removed and
eaten. The bones make delicious
luncheon dish or are sometimes served
as an entree.

MYRNA ARRAND BADLY
BURNED BY BLAZING OIL

Myrna Arrand, attendant at the
Franklin service station, suffered
severe burns about the hands and
chest Sunday when a container of
oil was ignited as he was attempt
ing to start a fire in, a heating
stove at the station.
The building which houses the
service station and Bergen's cafe
would almost undoubtedly have
caught fire and burned to the
ground had not Arrand courageous
ly carried the flaming c~ontainer
outside and threw 1t out of danger.
Meanwhile his shirt caught fire
and was nearly completely con
sumed, and the hand holding the
container was especially badly
injured.
First aid was administered by
The CouIee Junction Service, new
appointed official Red Cross emer-
gency station.

tuesday Night

The largest and most colorful
dance held in a long time will take
place Tuesday night at the local
gymnasium, the affair being a ben
efft for the Junior league baseball
team which has been entered in
the county circuit.
Adding to the color of the dance
is the fact that the 4th Infantry

kane r scheduled to camp here

number of the expected 500 sol
diers expected will also attend.
A door prize will give the holder
OF the lucky number his choice Of
a late model ice box or an equal
amount of cash.
Music will be furnished by Pc
terson's orchestra, featuring their

Big Bend.
Local merchants are giving fine
cooperation in the matter of sup
porting the event and the advance
ticket sale is moving briskly. Paul
Brown, Clyde Bellies and Hank
Stass r in charge of details.
Another gesture of cooperation
was the fact that tho school class
night, originally scheduled for
Tuesday night was set back to
Monday to avoid interfering with
plans for the benefit dance, and
class night decorations will be left
up thereby saving decorating costs.
Admission price will be $1.0O,
and your support Is urged for this
affair,
The baseball squad will be, OUT
Gifted with new suits, and all 9TH
