* _____ H ilda Richm ond ` `Let's play hide and seek ; I don' t want to play croquet," said Dolly. " It's so tiresom e to play croquet." " But it isn't your turn to choose," said Herbert. D olly was new in the neighborhood and did not know that the children took turns selecting games when play ing. She pouted a hit hut was happy when it came her turn to choose. And so, m errily they played all the sunny afternoon. " H ow in the w orld did you accom plish th is?" asked D olly's mother, who with several other mothers was sew ing under the big apple tree and watching the children. " I always sup posed a certain amount o f wrangling and jangling w ent with children's fun, but everything is harmonious and hap py here." " W e let the children make their own rules," said H erbert's mother. " Every one had a v oice in the making, and the first meeting was rather noisy. They decided that absolute fairness was the only way to make everybody satisfied. Now they enforce the rules them selves." " Do they ever have any trouble?" asked the interested visitor, forgetting to sew as she watched. " W ell, it must b e confessed that som etim es there is a law violator," laughed another mother, " but the small offender is prom ptly dealt with, and the trouble soon ends." "And how is the offender dealt w ith?" queried D olly's mother. At that m om ent a small girl was es corted b y tw o other children to the spoken by any one of the three, and gate and put outside. Not a word was when the tw o "p olicem en " returned to th game it went on without comment. Presently, the small girl outside the gate announced that she was willing to play fair, and she was readmitted. Most o f the players at som e tim e or other had been put out of a game, so there was sympathy and lack o f com ment for the little sinner. And that, the mothers said, was one o f the strong points o f the children's organ! zation. They had agreed that no fu ture referen ce should b e made to the offender once pardon was asked. Children are naturally quick to see the difference betwen right and wrong and to know that they cannot have all things their own way, so while they are very young is the best time to im p ress the lesson of fair play and the 'firm conviction that laws are made to be obeyed. " As the tw ig is bent the tree's inclined," is a good old maxim 'and one that needs to b e emphasized in these days o f loose ideas about hu man rights and liberty. If children make and execute their own laws, they do not " wrangle and ; jin g le ," neither is there opportunity jto tease or try to appeal from the ver dict as they often do when parents .and teachers make the rules. Even in ^school, boys and girls are now often [taught to form ulate their own code 'and enforce it, for no child likes to be '"sent to Coventry." In the home, the neighborhood and everywhere there must be laws fo.- children, and if they themselves, make and u s 3 them wise ly, they w ill get valuable training for future service as good citizens. -- Is sued by the National Kindergarten As sociation, 8 W est 40th Street, New Y ork City.

KRUSCHEN Fourteen kilom eters-- approximately 8 miles-- away from Hallheim, the scent of last w eek's episode o f the ad venture in the salt mines, is the ex quisitely beautiful village o f Berchtesgaden. Bavarian Alpine scenery, lumbring oxen in the twisty, narrow streets; the inhabitants and visitors alike dressed in the picturesque Tyro lean costumes, with bottle green hats trimmed with a tall c u r lin g feather, green or brown tunics, chamois breeches held up with green cloth or brown leather suspenders, half socks covering only the calf o f the leg and heavy walking shoes. Berchtesgaden lies in a lovely valley, enclosed by a belt of m ajestic snow-capped peaks and, being situated on the sunny southern slopes o f the Untereberg, it is sheltered most effectively against all cold winds. The great German writer, Ludwig Ganghofer, voicing the impression made on him by the sublime beauty of Berchtesgaden, uttered the fervent prayer: ` `Lord, w hom soever Thou lovest, let him com e here." On my first vsit to Berchtesgaden, four years ago, we had left Innsbruck, in Austria, and entrained as far as Kitzbuhel-- another lovely spot. In Europe, as in this country, luggage is handled on railway station premises by station porters. The train made but a short stop at Kitzbuhel and our bags were hurriedly placed on the platform. I saw the man I was ex pecting just outside the station gate, nodded to him and attended to the lug gage, but, on getting it outside, I asked for the cars which w ere to take us on to Berchtesgaden after lunch. My man pointed to some, standing a short distance away; I said " That is all right, as far as the people are con cerned, but what about the luggage?" It then transpired that this matter had been overlooked. This meant that I had to hire a large car; not an easy matter, even so short a time as four years ago. Austria was poor and, in the small places, conveyances were at a premium. However, one was found to answer the purpose and I sent it ahead of us. W e spent three hours in Gitzbuhel and then proceeded to our destination for the night-- Berchtesgaden. To reach this place, we had to pass a frontier and here we overtook the car with the luggage. Apparently every thing was going right, so we went ahead without it, arriving at the Grand H otel in Berchtesgaden about 5 o 'clock. Everyone was in raptures over the accom m odation and the won derful panorama spread out before us, but after an hour had passed and no luggage car, I went to the telephone to see if it could be located. W hile I was telephoning, a large lim ousine drove to the door and the proprietor, manager and other officials o f the hotel went to met it, and with stiff genuflections from the waist they treated the arrival with great cere mony. I remarked to the porter, " To whom does the car belon g?" and he A RICH IN V IT A M IN S 12-33 HAIKS&EBSIira. a d ie s , l e a r n h a ir d r e s s in g .
