MYERS, Ph.D. As I observe parents in relation to their tots at bathing beaches and summer picnics, I am encouraged with the many samples of sympa- thetic, understanding parenthood I observe. I am very sure that the number of such good instances I have been able to observe has been increasing over g period of years. Of course, one does still have to see some terrible treatment of young children in public places. Never- theless, the better sort of parent- hood in this respect is prevailing, I do believe, Needless Bossing It's a delight to see parents and older children patiently helping the tot to get used to the water without fear, even training the little tyke to float and swim. Tod- dlers at the beach and open picnic places usually have ample space areas in which to move about and play without annoying others or in. juring property, Checking on the few necessary items for safety and regard for the rights of others, the parents of a little child can let him alone most of the time, Whereas some parents must be bossing the little child all the time, most are able to keep their bossing at the beach and park to a minimum. Concerning the punabout from five to twelve, I am not so optimis- tic. It is disheartening to see so many of his age in public recreation places who have little or no regard for the authority of their parents. These children often become a nuisance to others, especially at pic- nics, defiantly facing dangers and defacing property despite the warn- ings and commands of their parents Often these youngsters will venture into deep water or beyond known safe bounds right before the help- less mother's eyes, as che calls in vain, And if a tragedy occurs! Some city children visiting in rure al places, not having learned ade- quate obedience, will venture into dangerous swimming holes, lured on by the more experienced natives, Sometimes two or three of these runabouts, seeking adventure will experiment with improvised rafts and scows, all too often meeting with accident. Parents should guard their children against such foolish risks. In order to do so, these par- ents will have cultivated basic obedi=- ence in the child in his earlier years to the end that he will accept NO as final and will continue to have a wholesome respect for authority. While some children who are best trained in obedience will meet with serious or fatal accident, fewer will than those who have not learned to obey. Terrible Toll Many children crippled for a lifetime or killed in accidental deaths would have the privilege of living on .to old age with sound whole bodies if they had in their earlier years been disciplined In the ABCs of obedience. But we must not be too hard on their parents. Have they not been told by alleged experts for years and years that they should never lay the hand on the child to re- strain him, else they would warp his personality? No matter about losing his life, warping his body, character or future citizenship, Anyway, no one has proved that adequate restraint will warp pere sonality. Rather, I believe, proper restraint is necessary to prevent such warping.

A Holmes of Oshawa, brother of the groom. The groom's gift to the ' brides- maid was a signet ring, to the groomsman & smoking stand, and to the pianist a wardrobe case. In the garden an arch of ever- green and dahlias with gladioll and sweet peas formed an effective set- ting for the reception. The bride's mother was dressed in mauve chif- fon while the groom's mother was wearing a navy blue sheer. [Each wore a corsage of sweet peas. A buffet style luncheon was served by girl friends of the bride, Misses Isla Barker, Ella Baldwin, Wanda Coulter, Muriel McNally, and Au- drey Brinning.
