A chorus of sweet-voiced girls directed TfainingThe: ' CHILD BV WILLIAM BYRON POPBU3H.PH.Dt (Copyright, 1917.) IS there more than one side ' to this question? Almost everybody seems to think that animal pets are of ex ceeding great value to children. One calls attention to the canary, the cheer of its song, the beauty of Its plumage and flight, the trifling de mands it makes for care. Another praises the parrot, with his remarkable memory, his pertinent speech, his sense of humor and his personal Interest in the -family, the neighbors and the passers-by. A third calls attention to the docility of the rabbit, his cheerful acceptance of indifferent varieties of food, and his useful lessons In repro duction. Then, of course, there is the dog. who has, if well-trained, such spotless good manners, so ready obedi ence, and -such undying affection. He is the faithful, though unconscious good example, the family protector, the crea ture who worships man as his god. There are other pets, less well known, for whom special and definite pleas can be made. Such are guinea pigs, flying squirrels, fancy mice, fer rets, toads, salamanders and horned lizards. , The Don, the Prtnee of Petm. The dog. It is claimed, is pre-eminent ly educative as a pet for children.. He gives great opportunity for the en largement of experience and sympathy. His own activity constantly lures the child to action, for- he is always changing his position and occupation. With him the child will venture Into the dark where he has been needlessly afraid, and will go forth for long walks and explorations. Students say that the child regards the dog as he does a person. The dog's loyalty is a constant appeal to considerativeness. What Pets Do for the Child. All pets develop responsibility. If a toy is neglected a parent has to devise some arbitrary punishment, but If a pet 1 neglected he languishes or dies. The lessons are poignant, but salutary. Every pet induces curiosity. One mother testifies that her little boy asked more-questions per hour after he got his pair of guinea pigs than he had asked at any time before or than he was ever likely to ask again. The great commandment in the deca logue of the animal world is obedience. As the child trains his pet to obey, he himself learns the Importance of obedience to safety and happiness, and finds out what trouble it has been to his own father and mother to teach him to obey. A Word for the Othet Side. I borrow from an English mother some cogent arguments upon the other side, . As for the facts of Ufa which mav be learned from animals, she Justly re marks that "wnen learned on the level or guinea pig fecundity or the preva lence of kittens, they do not come with any sense of majesty very much the contrary.

He also reminds us that many words now elegant were slang in the original Latin or Anglo- irom wnicn they were taken. "Delirious" meant "off your furrow,' which resembles our "off your trolley"; capricious- means "like a goat," and inveigh means "to sail into." A dig nified person might say to a child: "It seems to me you are a trifle canri- clous. I would hardly expect anv one to inveigh against me in this deliri ous manner, delivering such a diatribe. Is It essential to your precocity to insult your elders?" And, then, suppose we translated this somewhat according to the etymological dictionary: "You goat! You must be off your trolley to sail into me like that and then rub it in! Just because you're half baked, you need not think you can Jump on your elders!" My conviction is that we should en Joy with our children finding the new pungent phrases that continually dart Into the common speech. 1 believe we should discourage their using them after they have lost their freshness. With this constant reading from writ ers who have a rich vocabulary and seeking in them also for forcible ex pressions will do more to enrich their speech than merely scolding at slang. Making the Sunday Meals Different. To the Editor Can you suggest ways by which to begin Sunday in our home so as to make the day dif ferent from the start? What I am after is not to be Puritanical, but to cause the children to feel that it is Just the best day of the week. BLANCHE M'OG. One of the most sensible ways to make a Sunday change is in the way of food. "Abraham and Isaao and Jacob." says Dean Hodges, "are particularly described in the Old Testament as hav ing excellent appetites, and the New Testament finds them sitting at the table even in Paradise." In one fam ily the plan was as follows: "Each in turn furnished the Sunday "treat so caljrd some little variety that was bought with one's very own money and kept as a grand .surprise." When it was the fathers turn it might be rare fruit or even ice cream. The mother always made hers some deli cate feat of cookery. The children's cost but a few cents, but was none the less appreciated. The treat came at the end of the dinner, and In this case proved to be three gumdrops for the mother, as these were her- favor ite candy: a stick of licorice for the father, who had a cough, and the sort of candy marbles that last an im measurably long time for the children." In another home every Sunday break fast was mother's particular surprise, and was always a "color breakfast," a- she called It.

If dried beef filled the plo-e of honor, there were dull red apples and deep red blossoms. It was really won derful how many breakfast color schemes the mother conceived, and it always lent a spice ot surprise to the Sunday breakfast. Marian Millers ANSWERS - AR be it from me to say anything gainst her, but. If you only knew what I know! She did something so awfully but. I mustn't tell." Did you ever meet a woman who talks this way? She goes around drop ping poisonous Insinuations. Of course she never does say anything, but. dear me, how she does suggest. And be cause I happened to meet one of this kind yesterday and because I got news of some of the harm she had done, I wanted to beg you, girls, never, never to do as this woman dees. ' Better say something mean right out If you must be mean, than to hint vaguely at all sorts of terrible things. The most dan gerous person Is the one who hides behind pretense, suggestions and catty Insinuations. But even If a person brings trouble on others when she says these unkind things, she does herself much more harm, for In the long run she will be found out and will be shunned and no one will believe a word she says. So let's draw the line at being mean either directly or indirectly. Why not scat ter good? It pays to be big and broad and kind and charitable. And it pays to give the other fellow a helping hand a smile and a word of encouragement instead of a kick and a frown. DM you ever notice on a stormy day how refreshing It is to see the faces that smile? In the snow storm yester day 1 passed a group of schoolgirls. all smiling, brimful with good nature and youthful enthusiasm. They made the day brighter. Did you ever look at a little baby and scowl? Immedi ately the child looks unhappy. Look at him and smile and unless he Is hun gry, as a rule, he. too. will smile. We are all apt to reflect what we see Just as tne little people do. so smile oftener. Folks get tired of frowns, ... , Dear Marian Miller: I am a Klrl of 5n pale, thin and unattractive to men. I am rather sallow and my hair la a dull brown, very thin and scanty. I love a, man near me very much, out lie would never look at me. I am so plain. If I were pretty I'm sure he would, but I am so u)y and miserable! Now. 1 know that If I had rony cheeks and red llpa and muf of hair around my face I'd be awfully pretty. Since thla la the case, wouldn't tt be Jualtfiable In me to rouse my cheeks and llpa and wear a switch? I can't live unless he loves me. Would not the end Justify the means? Youra alncerely, MAUDIE P. Rather than resort to make-up. which almost always Is noticeable, try exer cise and a diet- Begin by walking a mile a day andas soon as you become accustomed to this try hiking several miles. lo your walking consistently and In the morning if possible. Take a glass of milk, or a cup of chocolate before starting and & cracker if you wish. I am sure when you return from your walk you will be ready for a hearty breaKfast. which should consist of an acid fruit, butter and an egg. and toast of whole-wheat bread. Do not drink any coffee or tea. Milk and butter milk, chocolate and malted milk are fattening and more wholesome. - Do not eat any pastry or candy and avoid sodas. The "treat habit" will ruin your complexion quicker than anything else. Drink plenty of water, but not at mealtimes. Avoid any greasy or rich foods and eat no pork or veal. An oc casional bit of steak will not harm you. Go to a good, reliable hair specialist and get her to tell you what to do to make your hair grow. A switch or any false hair will only serve to deaden that which you already have. Be sure to keep your hair clean and brush it welL It is impossible on account of space to give you a full diet list, and course of exercise, but if you will send a stamped self-addressed envelope I will give you both. I think if you will do as I have di rected you in your-eatlng and concern ing exercise.- and gret sufficient sleep. you will find that the glow of youth will return to you and your whole men tal and physical state will be improved. Do not think too much of your fallings. but study yourself and wear such things and colors as are becoming to you and try to do your hair in an at tractive manner. Talk to people about interesting things, learn as much as you can and you will soon find that you will be as attractive as many girls you admire and perhaps then the young man of whom you speak will become Interested. Portland. Jan. 25. Dear Mlaa Miller; Of late my sweetheart has been so cross and grouchy. I pretend that I do not notice It and try to cheer him up. The family notices It alao and uk me what Is the mat. trr with him. Dear Mlaa Miller, advlae me That to do. U. M. P. S. In the lonr "The Curae of An Ach ing Heart" la a man sins-ins It to a woman or vice versa? Do not see him so often. He will appreciate you far more If he sees you only occasionally. Perhaps something is troubling him. so do not question him or nag or even pretend to notice it. Perhaps you have not been Interesting yourself. Cultivate your mind and manners, and be as attentive to what he says as possible. Do not allow your self to appear abstracted or disinter ested and be kind to him. Your last question is a bit out of this department. Ask a musician. Why bother about sad songs Sing some thing cheerful. MARIAV MILLER. ADVERTISING IS TALK TOPIC Dr. Ernest II.
