A wpccUil thanksgiving tfcrvlce will bo conducted by the Arch Mfihop of Canterbury. There will be 400 clerny in the vast chancel and more than 4,000 pe rutins are expected to make up the congre gation. Itcttoration has been going on for seventeen yearn, half the time originally required to build Kir Christopher Wren's architectural and nnginnering masterpiece. Near ly $li,000,00u has been pent on Dm' repairs and for five years parts of tho cathedral have been flowed as unsafe. The hiw church was built at a cost of $20,000,000, raised largely by a lax on coal entering the port of London. Its foundations are only four and a half feet deep, lie mHth them are six fci-t of earth and below that a bed of wet Hand twenty feet deep. Tho dome alone weighs C8.000 tons. It Is supported by eight hol low pie re and In the course of tho centuries it has tilted dangerously, almost six inches out of plumb. That movement has not entirely censed, but the building is now con sidered safe. Most striking sight In the reno vated cathedral is tho glitter of .mosaics which, had been dimmed by tho footsteiw -of worshippers through the centuries. But while the interior of the mawslve pile shines in renewed brightness, its exterior is still grimed by tho smoke of tho coat which furnished most of Its original cost. The building is of Portland stone, ; which is slightly porous. The soot of London is so ingrained that I many experts believe it would bo I Impossible to clean the stone. I Others consider that the thlek eoat 'lng of dirt is an excellent preserva tive. At any rate, It will not be ! removed. j The great organ, silent since jl925, has been rebuilt and will gain j peal harmonies from its 4,500 pipes j on Juno 25. Some 300 miles of ! electric wire were used In rebuild i ing tho great instrument. The largest pipe is on the pedal board. Jt is 32 feet long, of three inch ! pi no "and weighs nearly a ton, j In re-gilding the massive cross jatop tho dome, 3.000 leaves of pure 'gold were used. It is all 24 curat .leaf, liko the gold with which tho 1 ancient Egyptian covered their j mummies 4.000 years ago. Ex- posed to London fogs and smoke, jtho new covering of the cross is ; expected to hold lis brilliance for iat last half a century, j Tho cathedral reputedly occupies I tho site of un ancient temple to ! Diana. Tin first cathedral was started in 1083 under sanction of ! William the Conqueror. It was damaged by firo in 1135 and not j completed until 1300. In 15C1 lightning shattered its high splro and the great firo of 1000 wiped out the firat cathedral. Only two years later Sir Christ o ; plV-r Wren utarted the present i structure, "floating" It on lt (treacherous bed in a manner that ; bus proven an example ever since j to architectural engineers thruuyli- out tho world. -r 1 TI 1 T Wins Pulitzer Award .trreat Dipper inverted mgn in Northern Sky During Month of June .

Chats With Parents Mlom.KM IMKKVTS By Alice ludson Penlo Wo hear a great deal these day;. about problem children, children who are so difficult that their parents despair of handling them themselves and go to child psychologists to be told what to do with them. Almost always it turns out that it is not tho child who is the problem, but his fath er and mother. The pro.blem child nearly, al ways has problem parents and mult they tako themselves In hand, there Is littlo that can be done for him unless It is to see that he spends as much of his time as possible away from home. Faults of character temper tan trums, dishonesty, disorderly hab it::, shyness, fearfulness alt these arc bui the reflection of the adult personalities in the home. Parents of problem children will do well to look first within themselves ?or tho causes of their ' children's troubles. Only tnai comparatively euro parent who Is thoroughly self-disciplined and maturo can be suro that he Is giv ing his child the best possible break. The rest of us were wise to admit our own shortcomings and to try to helo our children work out theirs in the light of our own fallings. .Such an attitudo will automat ically improve our own behavior in relation to our children. Jf we try first to discipline ourselves, the self-control we expect of our children will not be too great. If wo try to work out our own per sonal problems we will bo in a frame of mJnd to appreciate for what they are worth tho efforts our children arc making to work out theirs. Always before we speak of our child's problem. let us seo first if it is not our own.
