Copyright, 1928, Newspaper Feature Service, Inc Back in the Dear Old Briar-Patch My Thomton W. Burgess This much to me is very clear: Obedience is gained through fear. ~—Peter Rabbit Whitey, Peter Rabbit's white- coated little son, left the Wood- chuek’s hole in which he had been kiding and at once started for the dear Old Briar-patch goon as he had heard his mother thump. It was a long run, but he wasted no time. IVhat was happening to his mother, ahd why she didn’t come with him, he.didn’t know. You see, he knew nothing about the presence of Reddp Fox on the Green Meadows. He hadn’t the least idea that his mother ‘was running for her life, so that he might get in safety to the dear Old Briar-patch. At last Whitey reached the dear | 014 Briar-patch, and with a sigh of | relief and thankfulness dived into one of Peter Rabbit's private little paths. He was safe now; he knew it.” He turned to sée if Mrs. Peter was coming, but there was no sign | of his mother. He wasn't anxious, however. His mother knew all about the ways of the Great World, and he was sure that she was able to| take eare of herself Whitey heard footsteps behind him. Jt was Peter Rabbit. “Where is | your mother?" asked Peter. 1 don’t know,” replied Whitey. “Didn’'t she come home with you?" inquired Peter. “No,” replied Whitey, “she told | me to hide in the doorway of a Chuck house, out there on the| Green Meadows, and to run for the | dear Old Briar-patch when I heard her thump.

Kaschau, Cecho-Slovakia.z July 16 (PH-A three days' battle between 40 women patients in the government hospital here and the doctors and nurses of the institution led to the death of one woman patient, seri- ous injuries to four others, and the |arrest and imprisonment of six. | The interior of the hospital was | wrecked. The trouble arose when the phy- sicians ordered the transfer of one |of the women to the psychopathic ward, an order to which her fellow | patients ‘objected. Ignoring threats to put them into | strait jackets all 40 women at- tacked the doctors, nurses and at- | tendants, demolished the furniture and bedding, smashed the window panes, and threw the whole hospital into uproar. One woman in the midst of the excitement jumped trom an upper window and was killed Police and soldiers were called and firemen were ordered to turn water on the revolters, who there- upon barricaded themselves in the | operating room, where they spent | | the night | When morning came bedlam | broke out anew and several women ‘u"hmplad to jump from the win- |dows becauss” they were refused | ? |permission to attend the funeral of © | the patient who was killed the pre- vious day.

BY THE ZITENFIELD TWINS NEA Service The first l(ep in learning how to awim is to overcome fear of the water, The best way' to do this, of course, is to grow used to the water while still young. Mother used to take us in swimming when we were tiny babies. But we never were afraid of the water. It is a mistake to take any child into the water who is afraid. Give him a sand pail and shovel and let him dig around on the beach and before he knows it he will be wading. It is only a step more clear into the water. Our advice is not for babies, however. We want to try to help boys and girls and adults make up their minds to learn swimming. Don't Use Floats If starting in a pool, stick to the shallow end until you really can swim under your OWn power. Never use water wings, Try to duck and play ball or tag in the Women Become Good Managers Seem to Have Knack for | Running Hotels, “Women are the logical man- agers for hotels because managing 2 hotel is just Keeping your own home on a larger scale. And of course women are the born home- makers." This is the opinion of Mrs. Mar- garet Lee Randle, of The Barba- Mrs. Margaret Lec Randle zon, New York's new, exclusive hotel for women Born one of the Lee's of Vir- ginia, Mrs. Randle’s term ‘‘home- making” just natumlly includes that heart warming Southern hos- pitality. Her -flair for it gave her fame as the successful manager of the largest bachelor hotel in the world before she took her present position “Women instinctively pay a tention to to the small wants of Mrs. Randle said. ‘““Women are much -more consistent in their polictes than men, I really believe. And . of course their intuition tells them when to make an exception to their hard and fast hotel rules. “I do not think women can do everything. In such exact sciences as bridge or skyscraper building, for instance, I think only the ex- ceptibnal woman - could ever suc- ceed. But in all work where the human equation enters, women are at home and therefore have a better chance at success.” Do Not- Worry About Infant Some Babies Learn to Talk Later, Champion Declares. water until you don’t mind going under. Wallow around and learn to like the feel of water. You never can learn to swim if you don't go under far enough to wet your hair. Don't hold your nose, either. Take a deep breath, held it, duck to a squatting posi- tion, come 'up, exhale. If you do this easily, slowly, and try to en- joy it, you can ecasily grow ured to water without being afraid. And you should learn to keep your eyes open, too. Many per- sons fear to open their eyes. In keeping them shut, they thus de- velop another kind of fear for water. When you have learned to duck down and up again without being afrald, or out of breath, try the ‘dead man's float.” Stretch out upon the top of the water, face downwards, hands out in front, face under water, with breath held. The easiest way to do it is to start from the side of the tank and kick off with your feet. and 100 words — chiefly names, but also words such as ‘stand, “sit.”” “look,” ‘“drink.” He can also understand a command at this time such as, “Now, close your eyes.” The more things that go ‘on around him, the more quickly he learns. Also bright children will learn more quickly than dull ones. But often a bright child will not make an effort to say the words himself although he can understand them. Deafness or malformed voice chords will retard speech. If a child makes no effort to produce any sounds at two years of age there is possibly a physical reason. But if he does not actually talk, do not worry. 'Pointers For Young Parents Tips on What to Do and Not to Do. Personal budgets and accounting lofter a practical application of the principles of thrift and good citizen- ship. The amount of money given to children to spend should be decided definitely, advises “Children, the Magazine for Parents,” after care- ful study of the special needs of each child. The first amount should be small and the obligations con- nected with its use clearly defined. Not only pleasures and giving, but saving and some necessities ought to be included in the plan. The whole matter should be ‘discuased with the child. As the child grows older the amount should be increased to meet his increased responsibility. Gradually he will acquire sufficient judgment to choosé his clothing. and meet all of his personal /ex- pense. Two tablespoons a day of orange or tomato juice, sunshine by the hour, or codliver ofl by the tea- spoonful, may mean the diffeftrence between a baby who uses the build- ing materials of milk to good ad- vantage and one who does not; be- tween a baby with rickets and one with straight, sturdy limbs; be- tween a baby with high resistence to disease and one that falls a vic- tim to every passing germ; between a baby handicapped with constipa- tion and all its ills and discomforts, and one with a well-regulated habit of disposing of the body wastes.

If you hold your body out taut, you will fing that you float across the wated easily. You will have to try ¢ many times before you can pushl more than halfway across the tank. But this gives you a feel« ing of buoyancy that is essential to anyone who wants to swim. Try thisa “dead man's float” fox only a few seconds the first timey Just to get the position. Then res peat, trying to get a deeper breath and stay afloat longe: Never strain yourself trying ta stay afloat longer than you can easily. That will come later. But the minute you accomplish a good “dead man's float” you have learned several valuable things needed in swimming: buoy« ancy, the feel of water on the face, the abllity to hold the breath without getting scared. and a sense of easy motion through the water, in the child a sense of futility or inferiority. To punigh a child who drops & dish will neither restore the dish nor insure greater skill in handling the next one. It may, however, make the child unwilling to try te carry one again, and so convince him that he is a failure in this re« spect. It ia wiser to show no emotion either of grief for the broken dish or disappointment for the careless« ness of the child. It is far better ta restore and reinforce his confi.| dence, encouraging him to try again immediately, showing him how bets ter to hold it.
