TOO many headaches" was the
reason given by Mr.. James F. AL
lee, owner and editor of the State
Sentinel, for discontinuing his Re-
publican weekly at Dover yester-
day. An announcement on the
front page, signed by Mr.. Alice,
stated "The State Sentinel will not

ment on an inside page reads: "a
40-hour work week and increased
wages cannot take care of increas-
ed overhead expenses. The time
used to produce a newspaper of
which we could be proud leaves no
time for commercial printing in the

elect to abandon the one which is
the least profitable. Mr.. Alice will

The
What Not Shelf

This is the story of Stinkey And
The Skunk.
One evening too recently, our
cocker spaniel, whose polite name
is Buttons but who is affectionate-
ly called Stinkey, bounded from the
porch in a frenzy of hysteria. Be-
ing a cat-chaser who should know
better, as evidenced by several bat
tie scars in the region of the nose,
little was thought of this wild yap-
yapping. We didn't think trouble,
but we-smelled it. Rushing to the
battle scene, there was Stinkey,
pursuing a Skunk.
The Skunk got Stinkey-and so
did Stinkey.
Since then, she hasn't been fit to
live with, and looks with reproach-
full eyes at our lack of affection.
The Skunk, last seen hot-footing
it up the street, is probably having
good laugh-if he has scent of

agreed. And II Aunt Kate or some
one else wants to share her dessert
with me-" the boy added. "I'll say.
NO. thank you. I don't care for
any That's fair. isn't it,"
Ones first impression Is that the
boy had cleverly talked himself out
of 4 scolding. Be this Is 1t may.
however. he really was Furnishing
himself. And in q manner. more
over. which was related and fair.
SO that his mother wished she had
thought Of 1t first. For II Paul had
not made the suggestion when he
did. she not only would have scold-
ed, but might have punished him
too. Then at dinner time, most Ike
ly, she would have softened and
offered to share her own dessert
with him. thus multiplying any ID.
vantage which may have been
gained previously. But she COULDN'T
possibly give way to weak impulse
now. as Paul wouldn't let her.
Parents sometimes ask whether
1t Is right to deprive . child OF des-
sert as general punishment. The
answer is. unquestionably. no. The
dessert course is a part Of the meal.
and Just as much q child's birth
right as the soup course. You would
not deprive q child Of cod liver oil
or spinach as punishment II 1t were
his fayorite food, so why deny him
his dessert because he happens to
be unusually fond Of It?
The rule does not prevail IN
Paul's case. however. He Is not be-
ing deprived Of food which his body
requires since he already has had
his dessert. We punish to correct
and Paul will learn q valuable les
son when the others enjoy their
dessert and he must sit and watch,
trying hard to pretend that he
wants no dessert under any CIR
cumstances.

Secretary Writes
About Churchill,
Her Ex>Boss
BY TALBOT LAKE

MISS PHYLLIS MOIR has just
IVA written a most f1attering book
about her ex-boss - II was Win
ston Churchill's Private Secretary"
Wrote Winnie" about her. Miss
Phyllis Moir ). is most competent
private secretary -. and I can most
cordially recommend her. :. :"
It seems that Miss Moir built
herself up to the big Job by tackling
several other famous persons first.
When Lillian Gish was at her zen
it'll. she secretaried for her. and
then switched to Mrs. o. H. P. Bel
mont. the society leader. After that.
through DR.. Henry Goddard Leach,
Miss Moir. with a certain amount
Of fear and trembling. was intro
duced to Churchill. and was hired
as his secretary.
Miss Moir had worked for Lord
Robert Cecil. Lord Derby. Sir Neville
Henderson. Mr.. Arthur Balfour,
later Lord Arthur Balfour. before
she worked for Churchill. After
that she got job as managing ed
itor Of magazine and now Is pres
ident Of the Forum Lecture Bureau.
She enjoyed her work as secretary
to the great, but she gave It up.
Why? We quote from Miss Moir's
recent book:
1.-THE impact Of Mr.. Churchill's
personality was SO shattering that ]
felt. when I left his service, that this
had been the private secretaryship
to end all private secretaryships%
so far as ! was concerned"
From reading her book. In which
many intimate and amusing details
about her boss are found. one can
well understand why Miss NOR
couldn't work for another boss
after she left. One wonders why she
did. She must have pleased win.
ME-" for there's reproduction Of
the character" he gave her, and It
reads very well.
Miss Moir, an attractive brunette,
left Miss Dolbys School for young
ladies In the last war and hoped TO
drive an ambulance. She was too
young for that Job. so she became Q
secretary In the Ministry Of NUM-
tons, where her cousin, Sir Ernest
