HANGOVERS

LITTLE HElSKElL

cratic Women's Clubs OF WASH
inuton County are planning to
bring out the women vote and
concentrate their efforts on sup
portino the woman candidate for
DELEGATE to the State Conven-
ton, Pm told, so it will be inter
esting to note the results. Mrs.
Naomi Harsh Taylor, a member
or the Wilamsport Women's
Democratic Club is the lone wo-
man candidate in the field and
from all reports practically all
factions in the party will support
her as compliment to the sPIen-
did work being done by
women throughout the county
for the Organization Democrats.
Veteran political dopesters are
convinced that the Radcliffe
Club pulled a boner when they
placed a delegate ticket IN the
field to do battle against the
Organization Ticket. They rea-
son that had the Radcliffe group
exerted all their efforts on be-
half of the Senator they would
have probably drawn scattered
support from the Organization.
AS matters stack up now, the
ORGANIZATION is going down the
line 100 per cent for Bruce ana
all the Organization delegates.
In other words the fight has de-
veIoped, not as battle between
Bruce and Radcliffe, but a knock
down drag-out fight between
General Lane and DR.. Wade. And
il is interesting to note that as
the years go by, the Wade vote
has steadily decreased while the
Lane vote has steadily increased.
Members of the Radcliffe Club
were highly pleased several days
auo when prominent citizen
with political ambitions, dropped
i'm for a little chat and to WISH
'em luck in their efforts to put
over their candidate, Mr.. Rad
cliffe. Pm told also that he in
vited the b'hoys to call on him
if they needed any help, which,
understand, means finances.
The b'hoys are really enthusiast
tic about this momentous visit,
and strange as it seems, the Or
qanization Democrats are like
wise Joyful about the matter.
Win, lose or draw, the poor fell
low will be on the outside look
ino in as far as the State organi-
cation is concerned. And that,
methinks will be very, very SAD
for him after having been bask-
inq in the lime-Iight for the past
two years!
Another headache is in the
making for Mayor Richard. Last
spring, officials of the Washing
ton County Baseball League ap-
peared before the City Fathers
with request for stadium
lights. Night baseball, they said,
would be a great boost for the
game. The city brain trusters
went into action and came up
with an estimated cost Of $500
and Mayor Richard Immediately
announced that it was "no pea
nuts" He was "agin" it. Now
il looks like Mayor Richard is
standing up at the plate again,
with the count two and nothing
and one foot in the bucket.

BRUCE GIVEN EDGE

Political DopeSters Say
Organization VIII De
feat Wade Again

With the Senatorial primary
campaign fast drawing to a close,
impartial politica, observers are
conceding Washington County 10
Howard Bruce Some few weeks
ago. these same observers were OF
the opinion that Radcliffe had an
outside chance, but developments
since that time have, they believe,
wrecked any hopes he might have
had.
One of the shredwest political
dopesters in Hagerstown, an &C.
tive Republican. has summed up
the campaign in this county as
follows:
Several weeks ago there was
comparatively little sentiment in
this county for Bruce. Radcliffe
having been in the Senate for six
years, had the advantage over his
pppCnent. The sifuatiO then was
! perfect set-up for the Senator
Put Dr. Wade tossed in slate
of delegates and the fun began.
In other words the fight is on be-
tween the two Democratic factions

Wade will again go down to de-

Over on the Republican side OF
the battle-ground. the situation is
somewhat muddled. but Broening
seems to have a good chance in
Washington County. Like the
regular Organization fight against
Wade. the Republican organization
is still charging former Governor
Nice with running out on them.
When Candidate Nice was Cover
nor of Maryland he ignored the
recommendation Of the Republi-
can State Contra, Committee of
Washington County. and it is for
this reason they are going down
the line for his opponent, Broen-

of the
Moment

Some women make a tremendous
chore out of entertaining They hide
themselves away In the kitchen or
dining room the minute they have
seated their guests in the living
room. And there they stay for hours
and hours. From time to time a
hostess of this type will pop her di-
sheveled head into the living room to
ask If every one is happy. And
every one says he is, even though
he is miserable.
The guests misery is based on the
feeling which his hostess gives him
that he has caused her terrific
amount of trouble. He Is also
bothered throughout dinner, when
it is finally served, by trying to
figure out what it was that took
his hostess so long.
The atmosphere is all wrong for
pleasant evening.
The best hostess I know has the
simplest possible meals for COM
pany. She does her fancy work
when there's no one but the family
there. And she's a swell hostess.
The food is good and there's plenty
of it. But you aren't over-conscious
of it. What you remember after

Teach Child
The Value
Of fNoney
Allowance May Be
Augmented by Pay
For Extra Chores
By ANGELO PATRI.

Often the question arises about
paying children for home chores or
giving them fixed allowance re-
gardless of their contribution to the
household I think the answer is
both the allowance and the pay for
the chores.
When children ask for pennies
to buy candies the allowance begins.
They are too young to understand
much of the matter but they must
learn and the earlier the better,
that spending money for pleasure
is limited. They should get their
pennies about twice a week, and the
payday should be observed strictly,
no delays and no extras in between.
We do this to teach that money
once spent is spent for good and all,
spending.
AS the child grows his allowance
increases. We want to teach him
that there are necessities which
must be paid for so we give him this
weekly amount to buy the cheapest
and simplest of them. First, per-
haps, pencils and crayons, then
notebooks are added, then as he be-
comes more and more acquainted
with the values involved, some art
ticles of clothing, starting with
stockings, gloves and handker-
chiefs, are added to his list. We
teach the child to buy and to get
the most for his money so when he
is ready for college he has work.
ing knowledge of the use of money
in this field.
While he was learning to use an
allowance for his needs we began
letting him earn a little by doing
extra chores about the house. These
are chores that would have been
given out, or done by some older
member of the family who might
better be relieved of them. They
are not the ordinary chores like
making ones bed, washing the
dishes, unless a maid would have
been brought in for the purpose.
Those are duties that children
should take on as a matter of
course. Extra chores should be paid
for and an account kept. This mo-
ney is added to the allowance and
used as wisely as his experience
permits.
All the while the child has been
gathering these experiences we have
been initiating him into the family
partnership. He, in time, is to know
how much money comes into the
household fund and what is done
with it, and what is his relation to
the matter. He is taught by slow
degrees that he shares in all that
goes on within the family and it is
his DUTY to save and help as we'll
as to enjoy. If he is we'll taught he
soon learns that he should do his
share of the earning and take him.
self and his concerns off the backs
OF his elders. Then he begins to
save In earnest, long forward step
in his growth.
Father or mother should super
wise the child's accounts. It is un-
wise to allow children to handle
money without a strict and busi-
neSslike accounting for it. This
training begins with the first allow
ance and mother helps the child set
down his record-three cents re-
ceived, three cents spent for candy.
This keeping of accounts teaches
both sides of the matter so much
that it is worth all the trouble 1t
takes.
