ON THE BACK THE EVENING or musical talent the child or adult has. Practice is essential to success. This same thing is true whatever the study pursued or whatever the “gift” being developed. Without practice no | one would feel competent to speak | French or any foreign language, nor would any one expect to drive a car, sail | a boat, or be a competent housekeeper. Whatever is attempted must be prac- ticed in order to gain success, the height of which is perfection. One exception is made to this adage that practice makes perfect. It is the outstanding exception which proves the rule. Goodness is thought of as an attribute, a something which requires no practice in order for improvement. | Few think of taking time to be good A kind-hearted, noble-minded, sweet | and thoughtful character is c\ldeml,\" supposed to be endowed with these traits. That they were perfected by | practice is seldom considered for a moment. | Yet if you were to know the m(n!ali | and spiritual lives of such fine persons | | you would recognize that these desir- able characteristics were made perfect through practice. The same goal can | be reached by all who are willing to study and practice the virtues. This is not a matter of probing into one’s heart and discovering the bad traits and at- | tempting to weed them out. The| | method is one of pleasantness not | | misery. The good in you will call out | the good in them. This makes for happiness. Make & po'nt of speaking | good of and to others.

Protests Daughters: he Unfairness to T} Family Goats Girls VWHY are girls the foreordained and predestined family goats? Why do parents demand so much more devotion and personal service from the daughters than they do from their sons? Why do fathers and mothers feel that they have a perfect right to take their girls' pay envelopes away from them, but their boys have a right to all the money they earn? Of course, parents will deny that they make this great difference in the way they treat their sons and daughters and the significant thing about their denial is that it is honest. “They sacrifice their girls so much as a matter of sourse that they don't even know that they do it. NE of the first things a little girl is taught is that she must help mother and in the household in Which no servant is kept Janey i early taught to hang up her own clothes and to make her own bed and to wash the dishes and help with the cooking and sweeping and dusting Which Is no more than she should do. It lightens mother's burden and it is good training for the girl and helps to make her a useful and competent woman. But mother doesn’t expect any help from the boys. They are physically stronger and more able to work than the giris, but she doesn't make them help with the cooking and the dish washing and the bed makirg and the cleaning. It isn't because there is something occult about these tasks that makes them a rite that only a female can perform. The best chefs nre men. So are the best cleaners. No woman can polish silver or serve a meal like a butler. Every boy adores camp cooking ard if he gets to a military school he comsiders it no degradation to maxe his bed with math- ematical precision. SO there is no reason that mother shouldn't make Johnny do his share of the housework, except that she doesn't like to interfere with his hikes and his foot ball and his general pleasure, and it is so much easier to make sister pick up after him and clean up his room and scrub the bath tub after he has used it. Virtually everything that the average working girl earns goes general fund for the upkeep of the home, but the boys of the fa tribute only what they please. If they are at ail liberal mother ever done boasting to her friends about what good sons they are, but she feels no sense of gratitude toward the girls who are really supporting the house. When mother and father get old who has to take care of them? The girls. There is never ar.y question in the parenis’ minds about whose duty it is to support them and them and look after t n they aged and feeble. Tt is their daughters, and it is a curio men are supporting their wives' fathers and mothers than are teking care of their own. « DOROTHY DIX. nto the con- (Copyright. 1931.) at I'd like politics. s like lots of fun n office; all you do, t I hear, is ru Frees women from needless N EW ouick- Slice, pare and core six tart apples Mix one | YePlied Little Chief.
