It has been clear that being saved
by Russia was the least and last

He is beyond doubt the ablest of
Poland's military leaders, and, once
the bell rings, there is no question
that he can and will fight, as he
proved in the campaigns to free
Poland and in his forays against
early-day Bolshevik Russia.
He never has quite come
through as a dictator. In 1938
there was one of those ‘“‘ideologi-
cal’ build-ups in which he was
to emerge as the head of re-
constructed Poland, Handsome
and imposing, of dominant
bearing, he looked the part, but
he couldn’t seem to manage the
big talk necessary for the job.
The best they could get out of
him was something to the gen-
eral effect that nobody would
ever be allowed to take a single
button from Poland's robe.

was howling for a knockout punch,
boxing, with nothing specific about
what he proposed to do about
Danzig.
Fifty-four years old, with an
engaging personality, he has
been a popular dinner guest and
holds the honorary presidency
of the Polish academy of letters.
The old Marshal Joseph Pilsud-
ski, nearing the end of his life,
anointed the general as his suc-
cessor. He has been supremely
efficient in his army job, but,
as a strong man, has been
somewhat overshadowed by the
showier, more facile and adroit
Josef Beck, the foreign minis-
ter. But fighting is his main
business and knowing observers

more apt to fight,

For 25 years, Mr. Dickinson

still continuing prohibition bat-

of righteousness, his friendly
eyes glinting behind his octag-

is aroused, his meager frame
shaken with pietistic fervor. He
employs much of the lexicon of
the late Dr. Parkhurst of New

of his philippics seem to voice
again the pious horror of the

Your Children
Can Help You;

® GOOD JUDGMENT
needed in delegating house-
hold tasks. Even older chil
dren may be too immature to
do difficult or too continuous
work. Wise mother will keep
close watch over youngsters.
By EMMA GARY WALLACE
WW HERE there is a family of chil-
| dren and the means are limit
ed, it often becomes necessary for
the older children to give as much
help as they possibly can, not only
with the housework but with the
care of the little ones, and the tasks
are usually accepted cheerfully.
But good judgment is needed in
such situations. The mother must
remember that the older children
are still immature, and that they
should not be called upon for work
{that is too difficult or too continu-
ous. What may seem light—not at
all overtaxing-—to older persons may
be quite tiring to a boy or girl, and
{a child is entitled to a happy youth
as far as can be managed. Then
the little ones—even a single little
one—may become quite demanding
and tyrannical. The wise mother
will keep a close watch of the gen-
eral situation and see to it that each
child is dealt with fairly.
In order that the mother herself
sall not be overtaxed and made
irritable by too many demands upon
her strength and time, it may be
necessary for her to simplify the
household program as far as possi-
ning, for instance,

is one where vegetables and meat

served in that container.
Don’t Let Work Become Humdrum.
Some sort of a play can be de-
vised so that the work the older chil-
dren do loses its humdrum charac
ter. For example: the living room
is to be put in exceptionally nice
order, because the Queen of Hearts
is coming for supper, and as the
children do the work, they could
chant to some well-known tune,
