The Boss Says: You Forget. “Dear Miss Woodward: “I am employed in a law office as & Becretary to the head of the firm. My salary is very small. That's not what worries me, as I believe an opportunity will come to better myself. But last %:“ I asked my employer if he did not lieve my services were worth more money. He did not reply directly, but said: ‘Business does not warrant a raise in your salary. You are a splendid sec- retary and I have only one fault to find with ‘you. That is your memory is not the best ever. Then he went on to say still more. “I never before knew that I had a bad THE STAR’S DAILY PATTERN SERVICE Jackets! Jackets! And more jackets!

The best way to train your memory is to exercise it. things by heart—poems, for instance. Pick out catchy or interesting verses that ap- peal to you. Say them over to yourself after you go to bed at night or on the way to work. Stevenson’s “Child’s Gar- den of Verses” is a good thing to begin with. Then there is a poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay about burning the candle at_both ends. You will enjoy learning these and each one you learn will improve your memory just as each swimming stroke strengthens the muscles of your arm. Since you are in a law office you might also memorize passages from legal text books. When you look for & new Jjob that will help you get a better one. ‘There are many tricks that are sup- posed to help the memory. Don’t bother with them. It's harder to remember the tricks than the things you want to remember. You know the old joke about the man who couldn't remember ;lhnt he tied a string around his finger or. Simply learn things by heart—songs, Jokes, anecdotes, poems. But don't dis- card the scratch pad. Even people with good memories find notes useful. (Copyright, 1931.) LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE.

Im not serprised, a quick witted lad like you, I bleeve you could even cook & hard boil one if you had time enough, pep sed. Yes, go ahed, fix one for me, he sed.

Do you call this fried? pop sed, and I sed, No sir, because just when I was going.to put’'it in the pan to fry it I axsidently happened to drop it and it lost its whole shape and I knew it ;llou'ldent ry pretty so I had to scram- e it. Well, its still an egg, pop sed. And he took a taist and .swgped, saying, Where did it drop and how did you gather it up again? and I sed, Sir?

To baby sister this was death to her children and she lifted her voice in loud protests, howls, shrieks. “What is all this?” sald mother, hastening down the stairs. “Bill, what are you doing to the child? She was perfectly all right until you came in and bothered her. Put the dolls down and leave them alone. I should think you'd be ashamed to tease the child as you do. You never come into the house but some such things as this happens. Go upstairs and find something to do.” “Aw, she just a big baby. ~Cries if you point your finger at her,” and be- hind his mother’s back the bold Bill stuck out his tongde and made a ter- rible face at his little sister who howled the louder. ‘When you see a boy do this day after day, when .you see him blustering, swaggering, bullying, consider his ways. A happy, successful boy does not do this. He may flip his sisters curls as he passes, but he will not persistently hound her. Only the boy who is fail- ing, or the girl, teases weaker children habitually. ‘The failing child longs to feel power- ful. He has lost his place in class, or in the playground, or in the group he wishes to dominate, and in order to find rest for some of his mental feet, in order to find some vantage point from which to stand and crow, he is obliged to fall back on bullying and teasing younger and weaker children than him- sel 1f. ‘Waste no time scolding him.

When you start to -account for any emotion such as anger, you get into deep psychological water. Anger is a feeling, of course. But & feeling of what? Certainly not a feel- ing of & state of mind is just a name for some- thing we can't explain any other way. If you analyze the feeling of anger, you finally get back to a group of ten- slons coming, for all we know, from every muscle and tissue in the body. When angry, you have feelings which seem to come from the heart. And they do. At any rate the heart is working faster. Some more of the anger feeling comes from the lungs. At any rate, you breathe differently. Di- gestion stops. re must be some feelings associated with that suspended activity.
