Brlnglno Up Children
It th Editor et the Kvntno Public Ltdatr:
Sir As a mother and teacher I hare been
v much Interested and concerned regarding
., the criticism of young people and the achooja
ihlchthsa appeared In your People's Forum
' column from time to time. I know whereof
I iseak. because 1 hava been In ctosa touch
with youth, school, college, family and
tocrklng with delinquent In the last twenty
i ... v.f' has dun In mv work, ao I have
thomht about It much, and I moat alncerely
feel that at the door of the parent ties the
UiponilblUtr of a child's aoul. Bringing up
children Is a business which cannot be car
lied on In a slipshod manner. It must bo
itulled and the best methods aought. Above
all, begin, you mothera, while your child
li young and don't wait unttt It Is two or
(ores years old. Teach It aelf-reatratnt,
cbodlence, truthfulneee and the Joy of aerv
Ice. Fathers and mothers, be companions,
but eitct respect. Tell fhem stories, read
to them, discipline them. And a they grow
oler Inttet on their coming home from
school when school closes.
We parents think to Insure happiness for
our children la to let them have a good
lime, to give them the things we could not
have and to save them from hardships we
hid to endure. But tba( la where we make
car mistake. We aro not fitting our children
to meet' life. 1 feel thla very deeply, be
cause the ohlld la the vlc'.Im of our indif
ference or Ignorance. The family la the
. juart of a nation; Ita moral health la at
ittke. Let us parents rally to lis defense.

Disregard for Law
Xo Jfiltor of th JJucniup Publte Ltdotr:
Sir Our wate of crime. and disregard for
tw are due partly to the low moral condt
tltni after a period of high living and a
Spending craze. But the rrfost of It Is duo
tr, our weak penalties and the negligence of
officers, especially In the enforcement of the
liquor laws. There aro men In .our city
who are brought Into court over and over
Italn, and all they go. Is a small fine or
a few weeks In prison; then they ar turned
loots on the public. x
We need laws that are a terror to the
Isolator. Extreme heavy penalty; long
Urns at hard labor. The fine should be
ill they could stand, and no favors or .mrcy
( own. And enforcement officers and
Jadgea. ihen they take an oath to enforce
the laws of our country, should not per
jure themsehes by winking at violators.
,No mercy should bo shown a criminal;
mticr should b shown society and tho pub
I.e. The American who will lolate a crim
inal law of his country should not only be
then the extreme penalty, but should be
disfranchised forever. II Is not a fit Amer
kin cltlten. All have a right to work for
nptal of laws they do not like, but no man
alould be allowed the right to participate In
Hiking laws who will willfully violate laws
In this democratlo government.
Mak the violation of our criminal laws
a eerlous matter. A long as the law re
mains, show mercy to the public, not to tho
criminal. Stop the practice of sending tho
run. who steals flO to the penitentiary foi
me tears and the man who atealn 1100 for
li years. Let the punishment fit the crime,
ut them know they go up for long terme for
It lolattona of our criminal laws and suf.

Wants; Little Home of His Own,
To tht F.Mor of tho Evtnino PubUo Ltdatr:
Blr I am a joung man and Intend to
marry some time this month. My present
salary la $28 n week, with prospects of ma
terial Increases as I become more proficient
In my work. Tho prospect of living In pos
sibly a four-room flat does not appeal to me,
but yet I may have to do It,
What little money I hava saved will go
Into the furnishing of my home. My Idea
of living right Is to have a small house
or a bungalow with not more than Ave
rooms and bath. I wish to have my prospec
tive home set on a good-sized piece of ground
say, an acre and within reasonable dis
tance of the city, so that the monthly rail
road fare would not be more than $ or
IS. This would make my baslo expenses
about 130 a month $25 for1 rent and fS for
carfares leaving me $70 a month for Hir
ing, clothing and Incidentals and a tittle
to save for a rainy day.
My Idea of a homo-Is to hava a place
where my lfe and I will be all by our
selves. "We would have sufficient land to
keep a few dozen chickens, raise a few
vegetables and alio have a nice garden. To
my way of thinking, this la far superior
to lhlng In an apartment, flat or any place
without grounds to cultivate. Can any of
jour People's Forum readers make any
suggestions? M. L. 8WARTZ.

"What of the Flarjl"
To tho Editor of the Evening PubUo ltdatr:
Sir A short time ago I road In the col
uma of your paper two poem "A Toast
to the Flag" and "Old Olory." No doubt the
writers of these poems vlstoned In their
writing a flag, bright and shining new flag;
not auch a one aa I see before me, aome
fifty feet distant, oer the entrance to one
of Philadelphia's largest Industrial plants;
placed there no doubt during the war period
amidst great patriotic feelings, but now
forgotten.
A foreign-born passed a few minutes ago.
I called him to me and asked; "Where
are you from?" He aald, "What you mean,
outside hero?" I replied "Tea," and his
reply was, "Italy," I pointed back of him
to thla flag and asned; "Do you ever let
the Italian flag get as dirty aa that In
Italy?" He quickly turned around and looked
and aa quickly turned to me and aald;
"1 don't aee no Italian flag." I aald:' "No,
that flag there." When he looked arfaln
and shrugging his ahouldtra and shaking his
head, remarked: "No, Indeed, It's a pity
and a shame,"
I ask you. fellow Americans who may
read this. "What of the flag?" Is It
Just what you seo It. a piece of cloth to
become filthy and dirty from exposure,
for no patriotic purpose, as this one and
many others that I have seen In this plant
and many other plants, so that foreigners,
who como among us can say, as thla one haa
Just aald to mo: "What a pity; what a
shame."
A dirty, torn, shot-riddled flag from the
field of battle should neer be washed nor
need any ono bo ashamed of It. But what
of such a one aa thla one. Love It, of course,
we do, ao do we our children, but we take
care to aeo that they are clean for no one
lovea a dirty child. Again I ask "What
of tho flag?"
Oh, give It the aoul that It haa, for
many are the lives that have gone out
In Its defense and can we not aee their
faces In Ita folda? Let not the greed
for wealth atamp Its prints on Ita folda by
allowing It to be exposed In such a filthy
condition. Take them down In all duo
reverence, wash them and fold them up
for future usn. Why not have the Boy and'
Olrl Scouta accept as a duty the gathering
of (Id wom-out flags and fold them up and
give them rest, as we would those who have
died for It. Again I ask: "What of the
flag?" E. HANKER.

Questions Answered
King Edward's Reign, Etc.
To the Editor of tho Eicntno PubUo Ltdoer:
Mr Please Inform me of tho dates of the
reign of Klnc.Edward VII of England.
The copyright Irw allows twenty-eight
years, with fourteen jeara additional. "Ben
Hur" won first published In 1880, forty-one
jears ago. In 1006 I purchased a very good
copy of "H'n Hur" for about forty cents.
Ii Is published by Harper Bros., and I
purchased It through Sears. Roebuck & Co.
"Tern Sawyer" was first published by Har
per Bros. In 1870, forty-fle years ago, and
jet one cannot buy a copy for less than
12.25. Will iou kindly explain why it Is
not cheaper now that the copyright has ex
pired? A reader. May 18, evidently refers to
Brjttnfs "To a. Waterfowl," of which the
following Is the last verse:
"He who from zone to zone.
Guides through the boundless sky thy cer
tain flight.
In the long way that I mut tread alone,
Will lead my stepa aright."
Would be glad to learn who wrote "A
Tramplng," published In the People's Forum
a few days ago.
Would be so glad for the entire poem en
titled "Tho Coming of Maj."
"Oh, who Is ehe that cometh with airy steps
apace,
Her voice so full of music, such beauty In
her face?"
Also the name of the author. Also poem
and author of "It le July," beginning:
"When the popples nod In the breeze."
I watoh dally for the People's Forum and
find It wonderfully interesting. Thanking
you for any Interest you may take In the
above requests. NATALIE.
Norrlstown. Pa., June 4, 1021.
Edward VII ruled from 1001 to 1010.
The original term of copyright Is for twen-tj'-elght
years. A renewal can be secured
for a further term of twenty-eight 3 ears,
making fifty-six years In all. But copyright
would not necessarily inter Into the price
of a book, but cost of production, publlo de
mand, business methods of a publisher, etc.
Wo do not know the author of the poem
"A-Tramplng."
Wo are not familiar with the two poems

Ants on a Lawn
To the Editor of the Evening I'ublto Ltdatr:

Foium for a remedy to rid a lawn of ants.
Lt me hand jou the following which I
havo clipped from a newspaper:
The Kansas State Agricultural College,
after experimenting with dlfferont' srub
stanoee. adopted carbon blaurphlde 'as .'-the
moat efficient means for destroying the
praltle ant. The Vork should, If possible,
be done when the ants are hi work "and
thlr gateways are open, Otherwise It
would be advisable to take a aharpened

A shallow bowl next is placed on the neat
and Into It la poured from one-half to
one and one-half ouncea of carbon blaul
phlde, according to the nine Of the nest.. The
tub Is oulclily,lowsred and the earth la placed
al around It.J, ,The deadly fumes of th
drug aro heavier than air and slnlc Into the
underground galleries of the nest, destroying
evsry ant1 with which they come In con
tact. The drug must be carefully handled,
aa tho fumes aro even more inflammable
than gasoline. It possible, and not a speck
of Are, nor (even a pipe or cigar, must 'be
permitted 'anywhere near It or an explosion
will likely result. Tho tub Is left-In place

Discusses Mathematical Problem
To the Edltorf the Evening PubUo Ledger;
Sir1 In your People's Forum department
I have noticed aome solutions to problems
glton, and I have wondered If solutions are
thoiQutgrowth of present methods of teach
ing. Tako the problem of two man walking
from New Vork to Philadelphia. This prob
lem should have been solved In about Avo or
six lines, as follows: A can Walk It In 30
hours; consequently goes l-30th of distance
In 1 hour. B goes tho distance In 23 houra;
crhsequently goes l-25th In 1 hour. Both
travel l-ao1-28. or 11 over 160 In 1 hour.
Hence to travel 150 over 160, or whole dis
tance, u will take 18 7-11 houra U60-11).
The gentleman who solved It took thirty
three lines to get the same result. The dls
lance la Immaterial.
Another the "Courier Problom."
Mr. doodwln takes elghty-flvs lines .to
Prove "H. M." right and "B. 51." wrong.
Of course, "B, M." la wrong. Thla could be
ahown In about ten or twelve lines. Let
troops travel 5 miles per hour and T rate
of courier. As cqurler must gain 25 miles
m going forward. It will take him 23 ov
J 5 hours to make head of army. In re
turning It will take 25 over T5. Both
Jdded will equal 5 hours: hence T will equal
12.07 mites per hour, which multiplied by 6
gives 60.85.
I haven't seen any answer to officer who
rode around army 10 miles aquare that
m?"ej ,UI 10 miles while he went around.
1 II risk an answer. Officer traveled 8.4
to lies per hour, providing soldiers moved 2
miles per hour, which would give distance
"jeled 42 miles, omitting decimals.
The balloon problem has the same answer
by two gentlemen, but If j understand the
Problem the height of the balloon aa given
by them la rong. I would like to see the
triangles the gentlemen ueod.
