Left to wither on sun-baked, rocky soil, that acorn would shrivel into nothingness, its promise wasted for lack of cultivation and nourishment. Why, then, do you expect that funny lit-tie lit-tie boy to be strong and honest hon-est and self-reliant without your help? The love and guidance guid-ance you give him at eight will do him more good than the punishment he may need at eighteen if you don't. It means that he asks both children to help him with home chores on Sunday morning; discusses Mother's Christmas surprise with them; brings home from the office the little lit-tle advertising paperweight or tray that will delight Betty, offers to accompany ac-company Bob on the hard trip of apology for breaking the Smiths' window. . . Mother's Job. It means that Mother keeps from their very babyhood her children's confidence; that they come to her first, sure of comfort ad help. It means that from the time Betty is five years old her mother is telling her firmly that as an older girl she will hot be allowed to run wild, that too much make-up is silly on a girl of IS and absurd on a girl of ten. It means that when she forbids a thing Mother puts something else in its place; it means youngsters of whom Mother and Dad MAY approve, ap-prove, being asked to the house, being be-ing familiar there, knowing where the games and pencils are kept, accepting ac-cepting Mother's cookies and doughnuts dough-nuts with gasps of joy, to remember remem-ber the taste of them when the cokes and cones and candy bars are forgotten. If your little girl's Dad is the sour, selfish kind who snarls at the children, gulps meals in silence, sneers at radio programs that they like and shouts for silence when they giggle their way upstairs, then he is doing his best to destroy their natural instinct to turn to him for advice. And if you are the sort of mother who goes through the day's duties in a sort of dream, thinking of the sitting-room curtains that ought to be washed when Betty is trying to tell you something, sighing in the long silences of the table, answering a dreary "out somewhere" when Dad asks "where's that girl tonight?" to-night?" and answering Betty with a "Daddy wouldn't stand for it," when she begs for a little evening party at home, then don't be surprised if someday Betty's tear-stricken face looks back at "you from the front page of a scandal sheet No home is so poor that there can't be a lot of fun in it, No mother moth-er who intelligently loves her children chil-dren need fear losing them if she makes home a place they want to be. But good children, destined to grow into good men and women, are the most valuable things in the world. And you can't get anything valuable for nothing! " ' ' And, thank God, the bad little law-less law-less girls are . the exception. All over this great country, in all the country towns, there are healthy, busy, normal Bobs and Bettys racing rac-ing home from school to tell Mom everything, deep in Scout work, gym work, theatricals, hospital auxiliary, . school projects. There are girls whose mothers and fathers call out a cheerful "Bring "em along!" ffMmw fj,.a ymmim,a waMWjaaaiawuaiuiaaau.wa) t. m.m.t mil maj WVW'iya'iw..ui n nnm. aim mi .
