Raising a Family—* | ‘Pussy-Foot’ Child Often Injures Self

Fear Sometimes Imag: ihed, Independence Should Be Encouraged.

a (Seventeenth of a Series)

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON I don’t give a snap for the child ‘who pussy-foots around saying, “Yes, mother,” or “No, mother.” Something is wrong. Either he has no spirit or he is afraid. Very

probably the latter is the case. Maybe he hasn't too much of which to bé afraid, but he thinks he has, and it amounts to the same thing. If he is not afraid of his parent, then he is afraid of something else, perhaps of himself. I am not averse to a good, wholesome fear of consequences in a child, because this is ndrmal and to be expected. But every child should have enough moral courage to try himself out _ , behav-

ing as best he may without. a buga- ||&

boo, real or imdgined, trailing him. ! Only the child with a en will! and a broken spirit needs/the spur of fear. |

Learn Self-Discipline

Here, perhaps, is a good time to talk about parents themselves, regarding this matter of discipline, and their methods of applying it. I think that many of us are afraid we won't be obeyed, and this makes us bear down harder than necessary. . There is a satisfying magic in our knowing that the children are going to mind. - We have to have the qualities of leadership, if we are to be leaders, and the real leader never gets jittery about others doing as he says. He takes that for granted. Some parents, on the contrary, have an overdose of authority, and believe themselves . invincible. This is a bad extreme, too. But no child respects a door-mat. Then theres still another matter that prevents us from being good leaders. We take responsibility too hard. The mother and father who give too many orders, expect too much perfection and get a set look about the mouth, are slave drivers intentionally, but fey worry - too much about their ibs of running the family. They take\it too seriously. Er

Keep Sense of Proportion

We have to take it seriously, to be sure, but why be habitually worried? Children grow up and do well. Many things come out in the rinse anyway. Tomorrow is tomorrow and today is today. It is the time to enjoy our families, not make an unbearable burden of them. The real leader has his bad moments, but he ‘'won’t make mountains out of mole hills, .or stacks out of straws. He .never overplays little things. Then, too, the good executive takes it for granted that God gave brains to his men as well as to himself. He knows what authority is, but he tempers his authority and issues ‘commands that he knows can be obeyed, and will. He does not expect more than the traffic will bear. Never should we expect

our children to do the impossitie,. a : Briton Outlines Development Of Miniatures

Development of the miniature, from early monastic manuscripts until the day of the printing press, was traced by B. Bennet-Alder, English miniaturist, at the Propylaeum yesterday. Mr, Bennet-Alder, who has been commissioned to paint a miniature of President Roosevelt, also showed colored slides of miniatures, many - of them British Museum reproductions. His private collection was on i display. : Speaking on “The Art and Ro- : mance of Miniature Painting,” he discussed early monastic manuscripts with their illuminated

and Byzantine and Celtic art. “The illuminator was the father - of the miniature. He used vellum or sheepskin exclusively,” said the speaker. “The use of ivory as a surface did not come into existence until the Eighteenth Century, whereas miniature painting had its greatest era in England in the Sixteenth, Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries. From the Ninth to the Thirteenth Centuries, illumination characteristics of the monastic. period were prevalent.” Sketching briefly the FrenchItalian and Jlemish schools, Mr. Bennet-Alder concentrated on the English school, which began when Hans Holbein came to England and .began painting his numerous pictures of Henry VIII. “In 1894, the first society of miniature painters: was founded in England,” he sald. “Today five societies in America are functioning
