It was impossible to impress up on her that he was only being friendly. ... '" ; Iter mother stroked the dog hi her presence to show her how en tirely gentle he was, but it did nut help. The child refused to play out of doors If the dog was to be seen or heard. I tut what her niulher did not accomplish over a P e r I o d of weeks, a visiting cousin of the child's own age was able to do in a few days. The little cousin was not in the least afraid of the dog but ran straight to It to pot and play with it. -' . . Tho little girl watched from the shelter of the porch. Gradually her courage grow. Ilefore the end of her cousin's 'visit, she had lost nil fear of the next dour dog ami of other dogs as well. Children seem to be very well iiware that a good many situa tions which cannot hurt the big adult who stands so firmly on his feet carry possibilities of dan ger for them. When tin example of an adult is not sufficient to help the child overcome his fear. It frequently helps to expose him to the example of a child who is not afraid. When he .seen- 'that the thing of which he is afraid does not hurt Homebody of his own size, his fear frequently disappears.- t'n fortunately, the device works both ways. A child who Is not afraid may be made afraid by a cbiltl who is. In using this meth od ft Is well to remember that tho fearless child must possess the stronger personality.
