Why T—T. such a thing, lamely. “T suppose a Chuck could swim if he fell in the water and had to swim to save his life, but I don't believe there ever was a chuck who swam intentionally. If that young Chuck over there really came from this side of the Laughing Brook, he must have got across some other way. You never will make me believe he swam acros: All that Grandfather Frog and Jerry Muskrat_could say had no effect on ter. He obstinately refused to be- lieve. You know there are people just like that. Finally Grandfather Frog and Jerry gave up in disgust. Grand- father Frog dived to the bottom of the Smiling Pool, and Jerry swam away, leaving Peter sitting on the bank. (Copyright, 1923, by T. W. Burgess.)

The pattern can be had In sizes 6, 8, 10 and 12 years. For the S-year size, 3 vards of material 36 Inches wide with % yard 36-inch contrasting is required. Gingham is offered as a first cholce because it stands hard wear and launders so well, but printed lawns and batistes are also excellent selec- tions for juvenile frocks such as this.

JiyThou shalt not suffer & witch to ve. This was the text by which our forefathers in England and New Eng- land foolishly tried to justify the per- pecution and killing of ' supposed witches in the 17th and 18th centu- ries. The latest execution of this kind in Great Britain was in 1722, But _witchcraft, the practice of sorcery, magic and necromancy, was not thereby suppressed. It has existed in every age known to man; and in our own time it seems to_be flourishing with exuberance. Its name is changed, but not its nature. In every city you may see the signs of the practictioners of the anclent profession., They call themselves clairvoyants, psychic mediums, telepaths, sou analysts, metaphysical seers and evem psychologists—as if their craft were a real science and not a black art. I do not include here those people who are earnestly and reverently seeking and tosting evidence of exist- ence after death. I include those who for pay- profess to reveal the future, fortell destiny, discover hidden se- crets and call up departed spirits. These are the new witch “Thou shalt not is out of date. The new command should be, “Thou shalt not help them to- make & living.” I_think that would put the Witch af Endor out of business. . (Copyright, 1¥23.) Oyster or Shrimp -Sauce.

The sugar maple is probably the most generally planted of all our shade trees. Certainly it is one of the finest of our forest trees. “In Ithe forest it frequently rises seventy feet without a branch, and spreads its leaves to the sunlight 120 feet |above its base. When growing in Ithe open it sometimes develops into a great cylindrical column. Some- times its head becomes a broad dome. The foliage is alw: dense.

How much misery would be averted in marriage if folks would stop try- ing to “make each other over.” Take Marion and Arnold, for Instance Theirs was one of those matings which are said to be “made in heaven” but never seem to stand transplanting. ‘What wonderful dreams they had when they met as seniors in college! “Make each other over?’ I should Arnold thought Marion an her “superman. say not! angel, and he was They wouldn't have altered each other, not for worlds. What if they did have such different tastes? “Tastes” didn't ~matter when you loved. Marion, who had never cared for dances, went from one party to another while Arnold had a wonderful time. And Arnold, who hitherto regarded books as a disease, spent blissful hours in philodophical discus- sion with Marion and attended lec- tures as though they were his pet indoor sport. Finding a Place. Many a high school graduate is wrinkling his brows and squirming about under a fire of questioning this season of the year. ‘Now, just what do you want to be?" inquires father benignly. * gays mother cheerily, “tell us what your plans are. Then we'll know better how to help you.” The youngster wishes he knew how to answer them. He longs for some- thing clever to say and' the words with which to say it. But nothing “Well—er—I think—"" ‘Yes, yes,” says father hopefully, ‘what do you think?” ‘Er, well, whatever stammers the child. For children they are, although they have, been graduated with great ceremony-and a beribboned roll. The general high school graduate of to- day seems to be younger in every way than those of an older day. Few of them have the attitude of grave responsibility toward life and a career that we had at their age. Perha) The' truth of the matter is tha the great group of healthy young: sters have but a very indefinite no- tion' of what they want to be. So many avenues leading outward con- front them that they need a good clear fingerpost to help them out a bit. ‘Wasn't there a friend who strongly advised you what and how and when to do? Father or mother or kindly yelative who pushed and prodded and dragged you & part of the way?

A logical and in- teresting development in each life. and one which should give rise to mutual admiration. But does it? It does not. Marion acts as though automobile salesmanship were but one step higher than drug addiction. Day by day in every way she gets surer and surer that Arnold isn't her mental equal. She's fast acquiring one of those lonely hearts =o popular with cultured ladies. And Arnold is con- vinced that club work for women is one of the more vicious forms of in- sanity. So he's deep in the throes of being misunderstood, with at least three pretty girls working overtime to_make up the deficit How needless it all is! Why can't they be themselves and share them- selves as they did before they were married? Having found friendlin and charm in each other, why can't they stick to the main issure and realize that the work each one does is of secondary importance? The general trend of character de- velopment is fully determined by the time people are old enough to marry Serious people will always be seri- ous; gay dogs will be gay dogs. But the home that is built on a generous love can hold & diversity of tempera ment and is the richer for that di- versity.

Betty was disappointed in her first day at school. She had been only a few minutes in the schoolroom when a geacher gave each of the children a slip of paper with writing on it. “Give this paper to your mothers and bring the list of things with you tomorrow. That is all, you are dis- missed for the day.” Betty followed the rest of the childen as they filed out into the schoolyard. When Betty got home she gave the paper to her mother. “They sent us home,” she said, “and 1 didn't learn anything, except that ‘dismissed’ means to go home. I didn't even learn how to read the writing on the paper.” That night when she went to bed Betty found & new reader with a pretty green cover, a tiny suit case of ‘brown leather, and, best of all, a Little Boy Blue her mother had made of blue gingham. His pockets held two new pencils and he held out his arms so she could slip her vellow ruler through his sleeves.. toward high altitudes as talents. He is inclined to feel that he has con- victions where he has but very wobbly second-hand opinions. He is very likely to be possessed with the idea that he is wise beyond the wis- dom of vears. But _be not deceived. Behind all that there is a frightened, confused child feeling his v out of the most difficult place that will be his for many a year to come. Help him! 1f he cannot help you are to help him, take the matter into your own hands and help him®anvway. That's what we grown-up people are for. There would be no excuse for our cumbering the ground if there were no silly, trying, needy youngsters for us to hold up and push on. It's all very hard on our comfort- able middle age, of course, but the reward comes in the later time when they are going ahead under their own power and we sit in our arm- chairs and beam upon them and re- member the time when—.
