That Yale professor who

may not agree, uui irom iu

to a few conclusions on how to

of the dark. If he turned out
like bin old man he would be
living in It moat of hla life.
I would aubject him to a full
courae of "Mother Cooee" and
hie fairy tale booki ao that he
could live up to hla cara aa long
aa he could in that Imaginative
realm thnt kevpa children chil
dren. When he finally asked
with dawning suspicion, "J ant
who la thla guy Santy Claua,
Hurry," I would aend him to hi
mother. Women oro auppoeed to
handlo the breaking of men'a
heart.
I would make him take up a
hobby, uvt a dime out of every
dollar he earned, lenrn to type
write and ploy one musical in
atrument, and lenrn to apeuk one
foreign lunguuge ua well ua he
did hia own. In the world ahead
of him, an Intelligent man with
only one language will be a man
walking on one leg.
I would give him a pet and
teach him to care for It. I would
make him learn flrat aid and
how to uae a uw and hummer.

At 12 1 would give him a cam

I wouldn't let him pluy high

make the team and I didn't
why ehould h allow me up?)
Some time during theac yeura
I hope he would write a poem
and like me well enough to ahow
it to mu.
When he begun to get plmplei

him In a public unlveraity In an
other atute. For four yeara he
would be too pulnful for a fond
father to look nt.
Upon gruduutlnn I would pray
Hint he would go on and atudy

wanted to be a newapaperman I
would give him a one-dollar bill,
disown him, adopt another boy
and alurt all over again,
