S. from readers ave anawered daily Parkes Cadman. president of the deral 1 of Churches of Christ in America, Dr. Cadman seeks to answer in- quirics that_appear to be representative of the trends of thought in the maby letters which he receives. Questions Dr. S Great Kills, £. 1. Will you kindly state whether a man can be a member of the Masonic fraternity and yet declare himself a so-called infidel” Answer—If his infidelity prevents him from belief in God as the Father of all men, and consequently in their universal brotherhood, he is not a true Mason. Spiritual Masonry maintains these doctrines as the fraternity’s life and being. Its historic teachings and rituals are derived alike from Judaism and from Christianity. Any professed Mason who denies them should in Justice to himself and to the order withdraw from its fellowship. Fort Recovery, Ohfo. Does not much of the mistrust and skepticlsm of the church and relig- fon arise from a doubt in the average man’s mind of the practical sense and business sagacity of the average churchman? It is & matter of common knowledge, to those who have taken the trouble to investigate, that the business meth- ods and practical workings of many churches and assoclations for relig- jous propaganda are woefully lack- ing In the exercise of those element- ary business principles which are ab- solutely essentlal for any successful undertaking. Why should this be so? Answer—Doubtless there are de- fects in the business sagacity of churchmen. But I have not heard of their prevalence in the case of 75 per cent of the Nation’s leading mer- chants and bankers who also happen to be churchmen. ‘The Rockefeller Foundation 18 by all odds the most successtul example of combined henevolence and brains extant today and it is engineered by churchmen. Surely after reading the reports of this lnstllull?n or observ- ing its procedure you wish to modify your question. " " perhaps it refers by intention to the clerical management of religious socleties and charftfes, in which case I see no reason for the widespread mistrust you indicate, Fully 80 per cent of the funds raised in the United ates for religious propaganda or for relief organizations of varlous kinds is collected and disbursed by our Jewish, Catholic and Protestant churches.

Her thoughts were with Jimmy. She had tucked a letter under his pillow, and was wondering when he would find it. In it she had told him again how much he meant to her and how she would miss him. A smile curved her lis as she pictured him reading it. As a matter of fact, the steward found the letter the next and propped it up before the mirror, Jimmy found it there some time later and read it somewhat shame- facedly. He dropped info bhed the night before without even both- ering to remove his clothes. (Copyright. 1926.) . (Cont{nued in Monday's Star.) QUESTIONS PARKES CADMAN devoted to sacred purposes. But the general operation of such funds is highly commendable. The clergy need other group having charge of trust funds. Your comments remind me of the remark made by Lord Oxford when he was accused, as a great lawver, of ignorance of business principle: “I have had to spend most of my pro- fessional life,” said he lordship, “in getting business men out of serfous trouble.” Buffalo, N. Y. I am a mother worried about my children, because they do not have playmates. When I suggest that they play somewhere they usually answer: “We haven't any one to play with." My home is always open to them and any friends of theirs, and I am always ready to enter into all their sports. My daughter especially is exceeding- ly shy and doesn’t seem to have friends as other girls do. Have you anything to suggest? Answer—What about the nefghbor- hood? Some places are hard on sensi- tive or well behaved youngsters be- cause suftable companionship for them is scarce. It would seem that your children are willing to play if they could find congenial playmates, and they usually prefer these even to their parents for that particular purpose. Yet it no one else is available, con- tinue to play with them yourself and ask vour husband to take a hand in thelr games. These are essential, or the best col- leges and schools of the Nation would not stress them as they do. Take the teachers of vour children into your confidence and ask them to co- operate with you in the solution of the problem. This is an aggressive world and children who are not pre- pared to meet it on its own terms begin life with a serious handicap. | Athletic sports of the right kind are | Just as necessary for your daughter as for vour sons. Indoor exercises are necessarily limited, so that keep- ing vour house open to the children's friends is only a half-way measure. Get them into the playgrounds where | they can cultivate the outgoing spirit. { Do not allow maternal anxiety to defeat the plan. It is far better for these youngsters that_they should | come home with dirt¥ faces, torn frocks, ragged pants and an occa- slonal black eye than that they should grow up remote, unfriendly, melan- | choly, siow. — Shrimps in Cases.

And everybody knows its character for watohfulness when in pursuit of prey. Lavater has remarked this charactgristic in the cat and has styled it “watchful and rapacious.” Wrinkles about the eyes are found above, below and at the outer corners. Each has a distinct meaning. Those which run parallel on the upper eye- lid appear late in lite and proceed from habits of industry and patlent observation. These lines develop folds of flesh as well as wrinkles, which in those who are first-class observers fall over the eyeball at its outer angle. There are two causes for this ap- pearance. In the first place. the bone |is one of the dominant systems and the eyebone projects greatly beyond the eyeball, and this is the sign of ability to carry on protragted observa- tion. Second, excessive use of the i { | develops the skin and muscular tis: sues about these parts. This appear- ance will be found in scientists, in- | venters and others who carry out minute and protracted observation and study. MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. For Birthday Cake. | One Mother Say: 1 covered son's birthday cake with a fancy doily and stuck the candles through this. Then when they melted and ran down, the icing was pre- served. The doily was pure white and resembled fcing enough to look very real. It was a simple matter then to lift the doily off with the candle stubs, and the cake was lovely and fresh. (Covyright. 1926.)

Mo w pietire of resignation i yilon | eye, such as in patient observation, | there was a hard and hot puppy | fight on. ~ | Mother Lassie flashed across the grass, poked her nose into the little mound of dogs, scratched them apart with her paws and barked once, | sharply. The bold little one advanced on his brother again and Lassle howled him over with one filp of her paw. Then she lay down between them and kept them apart for the | next two hours. Long before that {time the two little brother dogs wanted to rub noses again in friend- ship, but Lassie would not have it. | They must stay apart until lunch | time. Then they might again be brothers in company. Quarreling children must be sep- arated just as Lassle separated her pups. And the separation ought to be long enough to make them know that they need each other. Less will do no good. When older brothers and sisters make the home impossible by their | constant bickering it indicates a lack of home organization. If each knew his place and his duties, If each felt personally responsible for some part of the home burden. the quarreling would lessen considerably if it would not vanish. Fellow workers rarely | fall out. | When two children continually squabble fix the responsibility for the disturbance. Take that one aside and emphatically say you will not have this quarreling in the home. If this child cannot adjust himself to the others, cannot do his share without fighting about every little thing that comes up, he must be separated from the others. Tf some of the adoles- cents who contribute $7 a week to the family fund and cost the home about $25 had to go out and support themselves among strangers for a while they would return to the home circle better and wiser. Little children squabble because they know no better. They should be trained from childhood on to carry a share of the family dutles so that they may learn what co-operation and flne teamwork means. It is fhe | selfish attitude of the extremely in- | dividual child that makes the un- | happiness in the adolescent group. | Had the child been trained so that | he understood that he was entitled to | his individuality, but that it must be | the sort that lent something valuable to that of the others, the combination would develop the spirit of a happy home. Mr. Dewey says it is filne to ex- press oneself, but one must make | sure he has a self worthy of expres- 1 Near 18th and Col.
