HOW MANY FATHERS FAIL TO UNDERSTAND SONS. BOYS SHOULD BE RESPECTED A. E. Wlnsblp of Boston Delivered an Interesting Lecture to North Ne braska Teachers at the Auditorium on the Training of the Boy , The boy Is the most precious gift hat Is to be had In all this unjvorHC. -'orty ( lines us many boys go wrong IK girls. There Is a wrong way and i right way to bring up a boy. The uccossful bringing up of a son Into lonornblo manhood In a matter of far nero Importance than most fathers ittach to it ; a matter of infinitely nero Importance than so-called sue- CBH In business or In politics ; and a natter that Is a tremendously difficult , in everlasting puzzle-problem. If we ( now just what to do always with the boy , there would be no trouble in this vorld. But we don't. And most fa- hers never take the tlmo off to study ute the boy or to try to solve the iroblems presented in his upraising ; These were some of the points for- Ibly and interestingly brought out in in effective lecture delivered Friday light at the Auditorium by A. E. Win- hip of Boston , editor of the New Eng- and Journal of Education , who spoke or nn hour and a half to northern Nebraska teachers and several him- red other persons. Three Stages In a Boy's Life. There are three distinct stages in i boy's life : The first six years , when 10 has opportunity without freedom ; he next six years , when he has free- loin with strings tied to It ; and the text six years , when he Is being rained for freedom In the world with- > ut restriction. During the first six years a boy Is Itogether under his mother's care. If 10 learns during this period that when 10 whines , he will get what he wants ; hat when ho yells , his mother will arry him ; that when ho screams , his ather will carry him ; and that when 10 holds his breath , the whole family vlll rush to his assistance , the boy , according to Mr. Winship , has a ticket o perdition. During the second six years the boy s given an increasing number of lib- rties , with always some restrictions. Juriug this period he should be rca- oned with , not scolded Impatiently pen slightest provocation. He should earn to know that when ho makes a nistake , his father is the one person n the world to talk things over with , lo must not be forced into lying ibout his mistakes. Boys Must Be Respected. Every boy , to be made the most of , mist be respected. By the ago of welve he must be known as a man. le must be respected by men. He nust not be called baby names. Noth- ng does he detest more than this. No man who ever respected boys , ias occasion to complain that boys ail to respect their elders. Men who espect boys , their opinions , their nanhood , never complain of the boys. If a father wants to drive his boy away from him , he merely wants to .urn loose a flow of Impatient scolding vhenever he happens to feel like it , vithout any regard to the feelings of he boy. Some fathers will scold and storm ferociously one moment and a lalf hour later hand the boy a half lollar to go get tobacco with. That father need not wonder , when the boy grows up , why the son leaves home ind hates his father more than any other man on earth. Fathers should study their boys.be companions with their boys. They should always give the boys a chance o argue on things they want to do. When a boy wants to do a certain : hlng , th'e father should sit down and : alk it over calmly and deliberately , Ivlng consideration to the boy's points. If he wants his boy to hate iilm , he should stamp his foot , order Lhe boy to be silent , because "I've seen a good deal more of the world than you have , and I know , " or "When t was fourteen I never did those tilings , and it's strange that you should have to. No. Now don't both er me with that again. " Only Two Great Presidents. This country has only had two great presidents. They were Washington and Lincoln. Washington knew Jef ferson was his bitterest enemy on earth , but appointed him secretary ol state. Lincoln knew Seward to be far from his friend , but appointed him secretary of state. These men were great enough to do that. They dared to do It. They never made an im portant move without asking their secretary of state's written opinion. Then they did what they pleased. But they were shrewd enough to have bottled tled up the objections of these two enemies. They had put them on rec ord. ord.Put Put your boy on record. Let him glvo you all his arguments. Then ask him for arguments against doing a certain thing. And nine times ou of ten , if it's wrong , that boy will argue himself out of it and go away satisfied. Smile , Always Smile. It has been scientifically demon strated that the moods of those about us very materially affect our minds and even health. Not long ago one big school , discovering this , sent forth an edict to smile. Every teacher found not smiling would lose her job and so with any other employe , no matter how valuable. They simply had to bo cheerful , and to always always smile. "We've been killing people every year by frowning when wo ought to have smiled , " said the edict. And records , some years late showed sixty percent loss death raton n that school. At Seventeen , Boy Must Choose , At seventeen n boy niUHt ho able to chooHo for himself between right and vroug. If he has not loami'd by that line , ho never will. During tin1 years ( receding this period , the boy should 10 given opportunities to choose for ilnisclf , ovcMi though he makes mis- akes , for the sake of training him to > c able lo nso his own judgment. \iid If ho does make a mistake , hi1 Is ml to be klrhcd and cursc'd. Take ilm close to your heart , as you did vheu ho was a baby , and talk it over vlth him , showing him whcro IIP was vrong. That's the way to make IUIMI. Thousands of fathers fall to get along with their boys because they ire Ignorant how to bring those boys ip. They never take ono day off to study those boys. They haven't time. The boys aren't to blame when they grow away from those fathers. Fa- hers often make the mistake of be- loving that they can get along with out their boys more easily than the ioys can got along without them. Anther nthor needs his boy's companionship , its counsel , his love fully ns much if lot. more than the boy needs his fa- her. BUT A MIGHTY STRONG POSSIBIL ITY FOR GOVERNOR. SENATOR HALE OF ATKINSON 'Matters Like This Are For the People ple to Pass on , " the Possible Candi date for Governor on the Democratic Ticket , Is Quoted as Saying. In no sense an active candidate for governor but just now a mighty strong losslbllity in democratic state politics s the position of Senator F. .1. Hale if Atkinson. Senator Hale was in Norfolk Thurs- lay afternoon , returning from a busl- less trip from Nebraska City. Son- itor Hale has been urged by many riends over the state to get in the race for democratic honors. "I have never gone out and asked for anything like this , " oenator Hale eplled to a questioner , "and 1 am not loing it now. Matters like this are or the people to pass on. " Senator Halo's election as one of he "big four" at the democratic state convention in Omaha has brought him nto sudden prominence all over the state. He was elected as a "dark lorse , " defeating one of the strongest lomocrats in the state , W. H. Thomp son of Grand Island. It Is argued that the same reasons hat existed for bringing Halo's name 'orward as a solution for the compli cations at the state convention are equally good solution for the muddle over the prospective candidate of the democracy for governor. Senator Hale Is a strong man out in he cattle country and his name , his friends argue , carries weight all over lorth Nebraska. Many democrats hlnk that Bryan and Hale would hit a better pace in Nebraska than any other combination. DEATH OF SYLVESTER B. LYTLE Old Settler of Nellgh Expires Sudden ly From Heart Disease.
