RAISING A FAMILY--NO. B
 By Olive Roberts Barton

Much has been written about fears. Mothers are learning today the wisdom of discouraging terror. But there are some fears that we can't do much about. These are born in us. We dread death from the first, and out of this grows na- tural suspicion of water, darkness, storms, animals end anything strange and untried.
 Our little Jack may have a con- scious fear of such things, but small Kay may have more than her share. We call such children towards but it is not fair. The girl is usually ex- cused, however, but the boy never. This makes it hard world for boys.
 Some Fears Basic
 Jack may be afraid of water. It puzzles us, but through some eX- perience unsuspected by ourselves the little boy has had his water pho bias exaggerated. No use now trying to overcome his terror by forcing him into a big bethtub. It may be just the thing to fix his fright for all time.
 The way in this case is to begin all over again and make water his friend. A damp cloth, a few drops on his arms. An inch in the tub. very slowly he may learn to trust the very thing he learned conscious ly to dread. If he does not get over his real fear of water, he won't get over it, that's all. Let him live in peace.
 Later on, when pride or ambition shove some of his fear aside, he will jump in the pool one day, sick with dread, perhaps, only to dis cover that he likes it.
 To throw him in, as daddy sometimes delights in doing, won't wash his fear away, but may, in all

Gen. Haining Tells His

Guardians Of empire today, Gen.
Haining among them. are much moro

concerned about q possible "misdeed o0

England is snoring up her broader
structure Of empire, particularly in
Islam, and that might well be . Job

The study has been carried out with

A mere matter Of SO years ago, when

Zangwill, the British novelist, play

desirability Of establishing Palestine

declaration that lies at the root Of
current strife in the Holy Land. What
Zangwill wrote has interest today,
to-Wit:
IT the Christians would pur-
chase Palestine and hand 1t over to
the Jews. then the latest crusade
would atone for all the others,

by the massacre Of Jews. As the

World animosities, born Of political
racial and religious differences and
hatreds, have ramifed onto every
American college campus this fall.
They are vividly dealt with by Mr..
Mildred H. McAfee, president OF Wei
lesley, In a current bulletin to the
alumnae. DR.. McAfee says:
Last year at this time noted
the danger Of living too safe a life
in college community. This year
the world situation has made 1t i'm
possible for anyone to be safe from
the threat Of prejudice, misunder-
standing, ill-will. Far from being
saved from exposure to these
threats. Wellesley students are as
sociated with widely varied ele-
ments in q closely-knit commu-
nifty. We have on the campus a few
NaM sympathizers, . few Spanish
loyalists, some pro and some anti
Mussolini. many Republicans, a few
Democrats, Protestants, Catholics,
Jews, two Negroes, students on
thousand-dollar scholarships, earn
ing their own spending money,
others from homes Of affiuence-a
partial cross-section Of the con-
f1icting elements In modern society.
We anticipate q year in which
Wellesley College can demonstrate
the ability Of reasonable people to
live together in community where
differences are real and vital, but
subservient to common purposes.
We shall seek the truth which can
be shared by all Of us, fearing no
differences OF opinion. rejoicing in
the opportunity to subject our judg-
ments to the test Of sincere criti-
cism in friendly environment"
