Edmund Vanco Cooke,
Tho Child's Conscience
Happy spirits in a grownup pro
coed from a clear conscience, a sense
of self-respect, plus a sense of the
approval of tho world around him
for which he cares, says Elizabeth
Towne in December Nautilus.
Ach'ld has no conscience except
tho approval of its mother and its
father. If the mothor teaches the
child one thing, and the father says
another, tho child grows a conscience
with two branches which conflict with
each other, and which eventually tear
the child's heart and the child's mind
until ho does not know what is right
or wrong, and consequently follows
tho impulse of tho moment, in a kind
of reckless devil-may-care spirit. This
is tho beginning and tho method of
"going wrong."
No grownup can have happy spirits
whilo he is living contrary to his
(jonscionce; no child can have nappy
sp'rits whilo ho is living under the
CONDEMNATION of either or both
parents.
It is absolutely, impossible for a
child to come up right, in happy
spirits the kind of spirits that
mako him know the right and choose
it and rejoice in it, and grow in wis
dom and in knowledge of himself and
his world no child can develop
happy spirits in a family jar.
Tho first duty of parents is to 'find
a POINT OF AGREEMENT on gen
eral policies, and when it comes to
tho application of those policies, the
parents MUST back up each other,
stand by each other; remembering
that the one who has started the
particular piece of discipline in ques
tion is the one who has the right of
way.
Tho differences between parents
must be worked out in private, where
no little pitchers can .possibly hear;
and they must be administered with
unanimity as well as equanimity.
Care of Kitchen Equipment
American women as a class have
not practiced economy to any extent
in the care of household equipment,
the states relation service of the
department of agriculture believes.
There generally has been sufficient
money to buy a new article when it
was needed, or when there was a wish
to buy, and the market has been well
supplied with new devises to tempt
the housewife. Now it is impossible
to purchase some of the simplest arti
cles because they are not being manu
factured, The housekeeper is sud
denly confronted with the unusual

misdeameanors?
Tho want of thought in tho care
and use of equipment is often tho
cause of its short life. Some of the
apparently thrifling mistakes which
cause utensils and tools to wear out
before they should are the following:
Contents of saucepans and kettles
boiled until dry and the metal over
heated. Handles, screws and fastenings of
knives, forks, egg boaters, etc., loos
ened from having been left in hot
water.
Metal utensils put away wet, caus
ing them to rust.
Covers put away wet with steam as
they are taken off the saucepan.
Brooms and brushes used continu
ally on one side and worn. to a point.
Brooms allowed to stand on the
floor until their weight bends or
breaks the straw.
Glasses broken because the bottom
instead of tho side is put. into hot
water.
China dulled by washing with too
strong soap suds.
Liquids spilled on rugs or polished
surfaces because the container, was
too full.
Contents of the saucepan boiled
over the stove or in the oven be
cause allowance was not made for
the expansion 6f liquids by heat.
Burners of gas and oil stoves clog
ged and useless by burned food.
Rugs turn by having been held by
the edge while shaking in cleaning.
Glazing of porcelain and enamelled
sinks, tubs and wash bowls scratched
and broken by cleaning with coarse
cleaning materials.
Finish of furniture marred by plac
ing hot dishes, medicine bottles and
by spilling liquids on it.
Furniture cracks and parts loos
ened because the oil bath and rub
are not applied regularly.
China, broken in the refrigerator
by placing heavier dishes on it.
Dish towels scorched and stained
when used for oven cloths and to lift
uul aaucepans from tho stover
0nMiar?shed and oil wod work
spoiled by washing with soap.
