Chats With
Parents
CONKMCTINO AMI1ITION8
lly Alice Judnm Peale
In a mellow, confiding mood a 10-year-old
girl spoke to her favorite
aunt. "I would like to tell you some
thing. I couldn't say It to anybody
who would laugh at me. But I know
you won't. Sometimes I feel as If I
wasn't just me, but two quite dif
ferent people at tho aumo tlmo,
"One wants to grow up to be very
beautiful. She wanU to havo lots and
lota of men fall In love with her. She
wants to do nothing but wear beau
tiful dresses and dance and bo ad
mired. Tho other one wants only
to be very strong and Independent
and to do some sort of work to make
other people happy and to make the
world better.
"I wonder which I wll! turn out
to be. I'm afraid I won't be cither
because I want to be both." ' 'j'-
Such conflicts of ambition are
frequent. The adult who is hon
ored with the child's confidence
can perhaps explain that the' two
Ideals are not necessarily opposed to
each other. It Is possible to achieve
both at least partly. 1 .
One would not bo satisfied to be
Just one or the other and bo orie de
velops both as far as one enfi. In
every human being thero Is rootn for
all sorts of wishes, all sorts of Striv
ings and all sorts of achievement.
One must wait and Bee and try to
mnke the most, of everything. l'
Tho introspective child who Is
likely to have such thoughts ' is
much helped by some such sympa
thetic explanation. It helps to pre
vent him from wasting his energy
In conflicts that have little basis
In the actualities of life.
It helps him to turn his energy
outward Into active living.

Golf Bad Just
After Luncheon
By Johnny Fnrrell
(As Told to Artie McQovern)
One of the most harmful and yet
most common mistakes made by golf
ers Is the mad rush to get back to
the course Immediately after eating
luncheon.
It Is one of the fundamental prin
ciples of good health that no stren
uous exercise should be undertaken
while the stomach Is filled with food
e.nd yet I have seen golfers time after
time, gulp down a hearty luncheon,
and then rush out at once to play
another round.
: If golfers would rest for at least
half on hour after luncheon before
starting 'out again; much1 br the in
testinal disturbances, Indigestion, et
cetera, which beset them, would be
easily overcome.
After' luncheon, you should relax
in a comfortable chair, give your
selt at least thirty minutes of com
plete rest, and you will find that
your afternoon round will show
marked improvement.

(Associated Press Sports Editor)
Edvln Wide, the sturdy little Swede
who has competed in three past
Olympic games, will be among the
missing at Los Angeles when the big
International spectacle gets underway
the last of July. ,
Wide, who back in 1026 defeated
the great Paavo Nurml both at
1500 meters ond two miles, recent
ly sat on the sidelines at Stock
holm, watching the Olympic try
outs. He admitted it was time for
him to step out of the picture.
Tho little Swede felt qualified
from his long experience to add his
contribution to the perennial sub
ject of ('professionalism." Here's
a dlgeBt of his remarks, as reported
by Elmer W. Peterson, correspon
dent of The Associated Press in
that far-nung spot:
"When an athlete," Wide said,
"does nothing else but train, for
weeks and months, he is profession
al In spirit if not In name. If an
athlete Isn't working for a living.
li means -that someone is paying
his
expenses. He may not receive
actual money payment but he Is
getting something when he gets a free I
chance to spend all his time prac
tising. Wide gestured toward the Stock
holm stadium field where Swedish
athletes were competing.
TIME LIMITED
"Very few of those boys are uni
versity students. The schools in
Sweden put comparatively little
stress on athletics. Practically all
the boys out there are workers.
They train only during the eve
ning, or In their spare time. That's
different from having the oppor
tunity to do nothing else except
train.
"In the United States the schools
do much to encourage and foster
good athletes. I believe In this.
Schools ought to develon eonrt
bodies as well as good minds. It
has been my Impression that the
American student has more time to
devote to athletics, with the sld
of good coaches, and this Is what
helps the United States when It
comes to Olympic games."
flEFKXns Nt'RMI I
Wide shook his head at mention
of the dtspute over Nurmla eligi
bility, whom he regards the great
eat runner in history.
"It might be a good Idea." he sug
gested, "to eliminate all distinction
m"'Ur Professional I
m the Olympics. Just let every
country send the best men It has
in each sport. The real profes-.
sionan wouunt compete because
