NEW YORK. March Is. = We know a physician who is not alto gether pleased over the fact that his young daughter, aged 12, has corralled all the beaux in the neighborhood. Everytime he comes home the lawn, porch, and house is filtered with admiring sWains, who range in age from 12 to 15.
 A few weeks ago the girl came in and said to her mother: Billy wants me to go to the movies with him tonight Her mother said she would have to ask her father about it, and her father said ab- solutely not. You're too young to be going out at night with boys. You're only child.'
 A few days later the little girl approached her mother and said Billy wants me to go to the movies with him in the AFTER NOON.'
 Again her mother referred her to father, who again said no Listen" he said, you're still a child. You're too young to be go- ing out with boys"
 It happened that next day the doctor paid routine call to the school, where his daughter goes, and was in her classroom just as the teacher began to read them lecture.
 T want you students to pay at tention,' she said After all, you aren't children, you're ADULTS!"
 The little girl threw her father a triumphant look, and the old man, who knew he was in a tight place, swallowed and grinned.
 Next day the little girl went to her father and said, Daddy, Billy wants me to go to the school dance with him, on Friday night
 The doctor looked at his daugh- ter. He remembered that little scene in the classroom.
 Why, certainly" he said, T think that1l be fine.'
