    TINY'S TEMPER
INY was very small, She was
shorter and smaller than most
little girls of her age. But she had a
very big temper.
Oh, how suddenly angry she could
become,
She used to pound her little fists
and cry when she was a baby, and
when she became older she would
raise her voice and jump up and
down with rage.
When she was like this her friends
aiways called her Tempery Tiny.
Perhaps you will be surprised that
a little girl with such a temper had a
lot of friends. But somehow her
friends seemed to know that she was
trying her best not to let her temper

And the punishment her mother
gave her always made her feel so ter
ribly ashamed and miserable. No pun-
ishment in the world was worse than
this one. It was the punishment she
always got when she had been angry
or rude.
For when she was angry she was
very apt to be rude.
She would have to sit quietly in o
chalr without saying a word for 20
minutes, And no matter who came
in the room she had to sit there, and
no matter what time of the day.
Sometimes visitors came to call
while she sat there and her mother
explained she was: being punished
and go they would excuse her for not
speaking.

CURIOUS name to indicate the
+ size of a sheet of paper! And in
it is hidden an Interesting tale,
As a measure to increase his ever
needy revenues, Charles [I of England
made patronage of the privilege to
manufacture paper. And as proof of
the fact that the paper was made un-
der the auspices of the crown it bore
as its water mark che royal coat of
Arms.
Under Cromwell, parliament decreed
that the old royal heraldry should be
replaced by a fool's cap and bells.
And though this was later repealed,
the change was made and the paper
used for governmental records, was
called *foolsecap.”
And the title has remained, being
applied now to legal siieets, though the
cap and bells have been supplanted
by other watermarks!

TO BE ADVISED
0 ONE is fond of being advised,
+ much less a boy or girl of high
school age.
They are in the adolescent stage and
making a fairly mpild change from
boyhood and girlheod Into manhood
and womanhood. Many adjustments
have to be made; many new interests
are acquired. This is the period
when they dream and see visions of
the mighty things they hope to
achieve,
Young people resent advice because
they mistake their fond dreams for
realities. They unconsciously believe
that they are already om the road to
greatness,
At this stage of the game they are
trying out their powers. They have
not yet learned the great lessons of
life that come through defeat and
failure, They are very critical of
others gnd of themselves. Contrary
to the popular notion, young people
are very idealistic even though they
are impulsive and often act hastily,
If it were not for this cocksureness
on the part of the rising generation
we should make little or no progress
It is the fellow who does not realize
the dangers and difficulties in the
way who is most likely to try. Many
fail, but now and then somebody gets
through and wins the success that
makes the world richer.
The most effective way of handling
young people is not through advice,
but through their heroes. They are
willing to do what their particular
hero says and does,
Young people hate to be advised be-
cause they do not feel the need of
it, hence advice feems an imperti-
nence. The impulse of self-assertion
and self-realization pushes them out
on the sea of life. It is nature's meth
od of preparing them to meet the
burdens and responsibilities ahead. Ex-
perience Is life. They must live and
learn. They must discover the truth
for themselves, It is neither falr hor
desirable to rob them of this, their
greatest privilege,

Each person in the group gave his
answer, just what he
would speak.

i through which an appreciation of the

message ; though have
eves they not, and they
have ears they hear not. To some per-
sons a picture is nothing more than
daubs of paint, and music nothing
more than mere sound, A visit to a
cathedral or an art gallery may be-
come very tiresome to one who re

wrought their life's work in marble
or expressed it upon the canvas. To
another the entire day may seem as
but the passing of a few hours be-
cause an enraptured soul always rises
above the claims of the physical and
the material.
That there lies dormant In every
person an innate appreciation of beau-
ty Is beyond question. The Italian
ditch digger loves his music and you
can hear him singing while he digs,
because the appreciation of music has
been a part of his early educational
training.
The plea of this article is for the
development of the appreciation of
the beautiful. Every child, very early
in his life, should be taught to see
what a wonderful thing is a snow-
flake, a flower, the sunset, the heav-
ens. The meaning of art and the pow-
er of music should form a very defi-
nite part of his common school educa-
tion. An appreciation of beauty, de-
veloped In child life, would help very
much toward growth in moral and
spiritual values. In the judgment of
the readers of this article, was the an-
