Explaining her, actiOn she’ said “tnt hey were forced to move from the house y occupied and could not rent another use she had “too many children’. The husband took up quarters in a garage and he wife were taken in -by a 1eighbor. The plight of this woman calls atten- ion to the obvious fact that those who rent homes are increasingly inclined to »refer childless couples or boarders. The vusband and wife with children are pen- alized when the seek to rent a home. We are frank to admit that, from the point of view of the owner of a house, it probably more satisfactory. to’ eliminate and baby hildren in houses that! are rented, There, san extra’ wear and tear upon'rented uarters when children aré' present, -which means a money loss to investors who build homes to rent for a profit. We have not:heard-of any instance in Monroe county, as tragic, as that discussed, above, but we know.that some bwners do not rent to families with? childfén“"How the handicap, cat, be’ rémoyed, "$0" far''as little children arg concerned, wede'net:| know but maybe; the government to subsidize families with | hildren, or to make available to them publicly -financed homes on _ equitable UNSPANKED GENERATIONS The complaint is often made, particu- larly by the older folks, that the govern- ment of many modern families is not strict nough. If some children are troublesome, they say it is what you can expect from an unspanked generation. According to the ancient idea, Father vas to take the troublesome oungster out to the woodshed..or .some+ here, and administer disciplines swith the hing!e or some such thing. Or Ma:exen the back side of the hairbtush. ‘These exercises were supposed to produce good conduct. But modern sentiment fears that such methods produce resentment, and may create a gulf of bitterness between parent and child. Parents should be firm. Many infants find that they can get what they want by yelling as loud as possible. If the parents 2 up to them, the kids may get the habit c of teasing and sulking at a later date until thé parents yield to them for peace and cutet. If the little ones get the idea in the éradle that they have to obey, many of them will be saved from making mistakes. ae A supposed The money you spend won't of you in your old age. The experience that does us.better makes’ us worse, measures. You might observe Washington’s b rthday by reading a good account of his life and service to the nation. In.a national survey, recently con- cluded, five of every six women stated that they believed that we would be at war with Russia within ten years. Just now the time seems even nearer, All reading notices, cards of thanks; hs fa body who is ruthless in his march toward what he calls success. That ruthlessness may be in small things, such as deceiving others so that he may obtain a monetary advantage over them.

Sometimes it appears that the ruthless- ness, on a large scale, will never be | stopped. During the war, we felt that way | many a time about the Jap general Yama- | shita as he rode roughshod through Ma- laya, culminating in the surrender of Singapore to him. Can’t somebody stop him? was the ‘| question that rang throughout the Allied world. For a time, it appeared the answer was that he couldn’t be stopped, and, with- out having been stopped, he was trans- ferred to Manchuria to take oe of ’an obscure, post.
