Issued by the National Kindergarten Association, 40 Street, New York City. weekly in our columns. Mother By PAULINE HERR THOMAS “Mary, run and get Mother scissors. They are in basket on the dresser.” After a moment, with no move on Mary's part: “Mary, did you hear? Run and get my scissors.” Mary calmly adjusts a new dress on paper-doll Peggy, still no move: to obey. “Mary,” much annoyed, hear? I asked you to get scissors. Now, put down your dolls at once and obey Mothe What makes you so slow?” Still no response from Mary. Mother begins to perceive som thing more than slowness in this new attitude. v “Mary,” sharply, “what's the meaning of this? You turn arouni this minute! Now, you get those scissors at once.” Half fearfully, half defiantly, Mary shakes her head in a way that denotes a firm intention to continue her purpose of refusal to obey. “You march and stay there! ‘tend “to you! tha “do yo Your Daddy will If ever I thought I'd have a child that would say, ‘no’ to me!” Poor Mother! It would be dif- ficult to say which emotion is uppermost in that outburst—an- ger, astonishment or grief. Cer- tainly she is too much over- wrought to think clearly. a pity it generally is so at such times! And poor little Mary! Hiding her. tears in the bed covers, soh- bing away the afternoon, waiting and wondering just how Daddy will “’tend” to her. No supper, and to bed! Daddy’s ‘plan is to punish Mary once and for all.

What a pity it seldom does in such cases as this! As the hours pass Mother finds it impossible to compose hersell to her evening sewing. Her sym- pathy overcoming her, she goos ;“Mm‘illl{ in to Mary's bed. to “Mary, darling,” she says as th» little girl rouses a bit while Mo ther tucks her in, “why did yon say ‘no’ to Mother? You never did such a thing before.

Is it not natural for Mary to expect Mother to re- member her manners—Mother, { who is always reminding Mary of hers? Of course, Mary had not tha | courage to remind Mother at once. Had she done so, she would most likely have been punished for im- | pertinence. We grown ups are apt to consider it impertinence when a child calls our attention to such omissions. Mary had not meant to be rude; she was on!r demanding fair play. Of course, we know Mother felt (sure at the time that there wa: some reason for such unwonted behavior on the part of Mary, and if she had had the wisdom and strength to control her anger and find out Mary's reason for dis- obeying instead of nursing har displeasure all the afternoon, what a lot of unhappiness migh® |havo been spared both. So much tragedy! All because Mother forgot to say ‘“please.” Seattle Fruit & Produce Co. WHOLESALE and RETAIL PHONE 486 STRICTLY FRESH EGGS— Selects Mediumz English WIlnnu. per pound .. Almonds .

But dissatisfaction with the On- era’s management is not all on one side. Regular opera-goers have lately lost toeir traditional right to go backstage and pass the time of day with the ballet girls, For a hundred years the “regu- lars” have had backstage privil-| eges. French art and literature have found many inspirations in this phase of Opera life. Finally the management complained that the performances were being dis. organized because gentlemen with | season tickets sought to use their influence to befriend favorites. | Wealthy opera sponsors were lan- i pooned by the publie, nicknamed | “opera papas” and charged with |trying to push forward feminine friends with more beauty than I3 | talent. has | HITNI ! judged | and The “please keep out” sign went up at the stage door after the annual dvent at which the ‘“patrons of art” examine the bal- let to determine the salary aad rank of dancers for the ensuing year. The tulleskirted girls whirled on their toes, and were in a five-minute demon: stration of their skill, but critics contended that the presence of interested friends affected ratings. So the ‘“opera papas” will be excluded henceforth not only irom the wings, but from the annual mination of the dancing girls. | Their entre-acte promenades must be confined to the front corridors the grand staircase of the Opera.
