THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1931.0 Survey Shows Children Annoy Parents 2,124 ¢ ) Athens, Ga, Feb. '8--There are 2« 124 ways in which children annoy parents, Dr. Mandel Sherman, director of the child research centre, Washing ton, D.C, madg that statement here before the 24th annual farmers' week and marketing conference at Georgia State College of Agriculture. Dr, Sherman said a survey was made by 32 parents, who were asked to keep account of the ways in which their children annoyed them. The carried small notebooks around wit them and kept a record each day of the week. The greatest number of annoy. ances, Dr, Sherman said, were caus- ed by disobedience, but all sorts of conditions were put down as annoy- ing. Some parents were annoyed be- cause their children were too slow, others because they were too quick or alert. A few parets were annoy- ed because the children were not neat, while others were disturbed by their primping. \ "The results," Dr. Sherman 'said, "showed that the attitudes of the parents, their emotions at & given time, and their feelings of well-be- ing affected greatly the. kind and number of annoyances with their annoyances with their children" Dr. Sherman' was discussing edu- cation for parenthood" he said the problem of personal welfare and of happiness can be solved by properly Different ways preparing the youth fot life and eds ucation for, parenthood can do i .ch ir this respect, "The human element ig the most important in the analysis of any in- dustrial or occupational problem." he said. "If the person' is not advanc- ing, if he is not sharing cqually with others if he is not happy in his work lang in his position, nothing else real ly matters, "In recent years," the speaker con tinued, "much has been said about preparation, tor life. In many cities and towns schools are being built for very young children «= children as young as two years of age, These schools have been formed mostly because it has been recognized that preparation for life means training rom the carliest years, "Many people still believe that a child develops 'naturally' and that what he inherits determines what he will be later on, But out work with children in the past 25 years has given proof that the way in whic. a child is brought up determines what he will be later on as a youth and as an adult. "The most easily influenced of all a child's development is personality, Dr, Sherman said, "all of us can agree that one of the most important causes of guhappiness is a personal ity which fits in poorly with condi- tions. and with other people." FORT WILLIAM TO BID FOR HOCKEY HONORS THIS YEAR Yearns To Represent Canada In Olympic Series Winnipeg, Man., Feb. 4, --Anoth- er Olympic campaign is in full swing----and up from a three-year servitude at head-of-the-lakes has bobbed a hockey team that yearns to wear the Maple Leaf crested uni- form denjed it four years ago. Pounding hoofs of Fort Willlam's Thundering herd, that trampled all but one team in a quest to represent Canada at the 1928 Olympiad, again echo from the lakehead area, and this time the Forts may subdue one of their most dangerous rivals first, Each season since their dramatic defeat in 1927 in the Allan cup fin. als Toronto Varsity Grads, Fort William has found the way to the Allan 'cup barred by Port Arthur.

Most of the scoring punch Fort Willlam will carry into the play-off series with Port Arthur is contained in the starting line.

Leo LeDrew Dis- cusses Series of Misfortunes St, John's, Nfld,=A typical instance of the fortitude inherent in the aen who ply North Atlantic waters in sailing vessels appears in the Daily News, in the form of a description of the little schooner Dove's last voyage. In the fall of 1921, bound from Hali- fax to Change Islands, Northern Newhoundeony with coal, the Dove survived one terrific ounding off St, Pierre, only to find her last resting place on the Fogo shore almost with- in sight of home, The story of the Doye's voyage is narrated by Captain Lac LeDrew, but an editorial supplement points ont that Captain LeDrew has tailed to point out one incident. "During the last eight hours, when the sea was sweeping the ship, and the cap- tain had' grdered the crew aloft for safety, he himself remained on deck and feefing his arms through the spokes of the wheel, held fast to it thus for eight whole hours while the seas broke over him continually, It would hardly be believed were it not for the testigony of the crew." The Dove shiled from Twillingate with, 1000 barrels of herring for Hali- fax, making the trip in twelve days with several calls enroute. On the return trip, 150 tons of coal were tak en on at North Sydney. On the third day out "our deck cargo was washed away and we hove up under a doubles reefed foresail , . . , we lost the bulwarks and it got so bad that I de cided to run betore the gale, and try to get to land before our eraft found. ered , . « . the night was dark .nd black with for» and we were running on a Jee shore" Finally, on the fol lowing dav after the lifeboat had been smashed, the skylight washed from the cabin, and the log lost, lund was sighted to port. It proved t.. be Harbor Buffett in Placentia Bay, but the vessel was unable to make (hat port, though haven was found in Lit- tle Harbour East. After repairing sail, obtaining a new log, and securing a new jumbo, at St. John's, the other having been blown away, the Dove sailed for home.
