THE
HAD TO LEARN TO BE "IT"
i
Mother's Firmness a Lesson to Those
WJio Would Allow Child to
Impose Upon Others.
The children were playing In the
sunshine, and Judging by their 6hout8
and laughter they were having a great
time. "Bushel o' wheat bushel o'
rye all not ready holler I! Here I
come!" sounded shrill and gay from
behind a big old forest tree over tn
the campus. There were so many
grand old trees to hid behind and
such an Ideal place for the dear old
game that I longed to tear off my
white gloves, throw my hat at the hat
rack and take to my heels, leaving an
astonished hostess staring after me.
Breezes and sunshine, and the voices
of happy children sometimes affect
the mind and heels that way, you
know. But before I had time to dis
grace myself the young son of my hos
tess burst in tt the front door. He
remembered to snatch off his cap, in
deference to his mother's caller, but
he could not keep back the tempestu
ous complaint which had sent him
flying to the arbiter of all childish af
fairs. "Mother, make Grace be It," he
panted "She plays and plays, but
when 6he gets caught and it's her turn
she Just won't be 'It.' "
I almost held my breath waiting foi
that mother's reply. So many mothers
always take the daughter's part, say
ing: "Now, let your sister play it her
way; don't tease your sister," etc. But
this mother is different, so she an
swered calmly: "Tell Grace that she
will be 'if when her turn comes, or
she will come in the house." And the
hoy, sure of his mother's fairness,
rushed back to deliver a message
which must be heeded. Maybe she
saw the question in my eyes, regard
ing her decision, as I volunteered
some excuse for the little girl who is
a great favorite of mine, for she said
firmly: "Grace is Just as strong as the
boys she is playing with. She can
count quite as well, run as fast and
Is Just as shrewd in catching those
who are hiding, but she doesn't hap
pen to like that part of the game. She
must learn to be 'it' when her turn
comes or get out of the game." This
mother is strong and sane and sensi
ble. When that daughter goes out In
to the world to make her own way she
will have the right Idea of life. Many
of us have been making the mistake
of letting our daughters hold on to
the tender lily-white-banded-sheltered-
darllng Idea, even in this age, when
women are pushing their way to the
front In every line. This mother's
daughter will understand that If she
is as strong, mentally and physically,
as her brother, if she Is going to claim
the same wage, demand the same
rights, she must work In the same
way. without any concessions to her
femininity, or extra consideration In
fact she must take her place and fill
.it efficiently or get out of the game.

The Panama Snake.
The mass of creeping, writhing dirt
known as Culebra (Snake) Hill which
has made traffic an uncertainty ever
since the Panama canal has been open
Is to be conquered finally and abso
loIy. MaJ. Gen. George W. Goethals
says so- Therefore Americans, hav
ing bad experience with bis canal
making ability already complacently
accept tbe conquering as being as
good as accomplished already and
turn on to the other news.
It takes considerable courage to ad
mit partial defeat at tbe isthmus by
announcing that the canal will re
main closed until the slide danger has
been eliminated. In reaching such a
decision General Goethals is wise,
however, for it would waste time and
money in the long run to try to do
the Job piecemeal. He is tbe right
man to kill the Panama snake. Ev
erybody hopes that he will take time
enough to make sure that it crawls
