Officers said Wilt asserted he killed the couple because Mrs. Thomas made him mad by "holding out part of my pay lor an old suit Thomas gave me." In this instance the punishment served only as a vent to the mother's irritation. It taught the ohlld noth ing, sinco he hod misbehaved for so long with impunity. Indeed, It was not an hour afterwards that he was up to his old tricks again. Whatever Is forbidden should be so thoroughly forbidden that the very first indication of disobedience Is met with an effective check. WHEN' MOTHER VISITS By" Alice Judson Peale Resident aunts and convenient grandmothers now are less frequent than they used to be and often a mother must cither take her child visiting or stay home herself. - The little child who Is taken along to a grown-up luncheon or tea party usually finds himself at first the center of Just that sort of attention and comment that the wise mother is so eager to avoid for him. A little later when tho conversa-; tlon turns to grown-up matters the child, feeling himself left out in the cold, makes a nuisance of a W partly in order to attract attent on and partly, because he is bored with nothing to do. Both thesendeslrable resulte may to some' extent be "voided. Where It is possible for the child to play out of doors, it is well to take along some toy, even though it may be in convenient to carry. : With a plaything he may spend wholesome hours out of doon w stead of being required to amuse himself in the midst of adult socla binty. - When outdoor play is not possible play materials tor quiet indoor are helpful.. A pad and a box of cray ons may easily do snppea into, moth er s nanaoag. Puzzles, moslac blocks or a picture! DOOK, Wiiiic "if to uuiisy, Will also provide entertainment. The older' child may enjoy taking along a book of his own. ; A "little girl who is Interested in' sewing or who has learned the art of knitting reins on a spool may take such handiwork along with her and feel that she is quite a part of the social occasion. 1 Such quiet preoccupation protects the child from the unwelcome atten. tlons which tend to either make htm Bhow off . or to feel self-conscious and shy Screams Frighten Big Cougar Away TACOMA, Wash., May 13 (P) Screams from the mother of Louis Lee, 6, frightened away a 40-pound cougar which had crouched for an attack upon the child while the mother, Louis and two younger Lee children were walking along the high way Monday toward - their home a mite and a half east of Buckley.

Ho flouted her requests (sho gave no commands), ho criticized her be havior, he called everybody. Includ ing Kt.rnpnrrw. nit tho hnri nnmrn ho could think o'f, and staged two or threo first-rate tantrums in as many hours. It was amazing that one child rnnlft hnvrt hnr) t.hn rnprirv fnr fin much misbehavior. Through it all his I motner remain ea gentle, ignoring as much ' as she could, protesting mildly now and then, and occasion ally sounding just a little petulant. But thero was a climax. Sho was driving, and It was necessary for hor -to turn tho car in a narrow and dangerous place. The child, partly in fear and partly as an expression of his attitude throughout the day. began calling her down violently for clumsiness and recklessness. When the car was once more safely on tho road, his mother turned and slapped him soundly. Violent ' punishment often Is in flicted after some such prelude. The child is permitted to get out of hand, to violate every possible rule of be havior, and then, when the nervous tension becomes too much, he is slapped, spanked or shaken. In child training, as in other mat ters, an ounce of prevention is worth n Ptind of cure.
