But the officers won't say "Having a fine time." They will Inform motorists their cars have been seen violating traffic and ask them to be more careful in the future. How to train a child to be truthful, ami at the same timo tactful, is he most nearly lisol a problem in the a i jtikm! manners. Accortling to the i ire -eepis of our Puritan forefathers, truth was Truth, and a lie was a Lie, and there was no ibblimr EMILY rOT about cither of them! And this is still a rock foundation principle, upon which the character of every admirable human beinjr must lie built. No wonder then that the hardest stumblinp block in child training' is to make him aware of the nice distinction between blurt injr out the blunt, unvarnished truth under all circumstances, and the thoughtful kindness which approaches, truthfulness only so close as may be. Teaching a rhiid to appraise the essentia! degree of closeness io truth compatible with tactful kindness requires infinite patience and ever-wakhlul guidance mi the part of the parent or whoever else is his teacher.

It must be remembered that this permitted emphasis on tactful kindness does not for a moment mean mat trutn is any less stru an exaction than it was when George Washington pleaded guilty to the wanton chopping down of his father's cherry tree. I don't know whether my own interpretation of the confusing contradiction of tact which is essentially evasive and truth which is direct, will be helpful to others, or perhaps even approved. But at least I can say that while it has seemingly made many children tactful, its ha.s never made a child lolerant of a lie. In my own imagination truth is a brilliant, never extinguished, pure white light. But beyond its own white brilliance is a halo of all the colors of the rainbow.

These colors stand for the qualities of kindness: warmth of appreciation, tact, and mercy; and all around, beyond the.se rings of color, is an endlessly spreading nimbus representing the world of fantasy. Far apart from truth is the pitch blackness of falsehood. Readers Who Disagree. Every now and then, or course, set inters from my readers who thoroughly disagree with all the conventions of pjlite behavior which do not in their opinion adhere strictly to the letter of truth-telling. In other words there are certain literal people who thoroughly disapprove of fairy tales and who do not even believe in any of the gestures of ic.litrne:.s which make life and pleasant.

I mvself don't believe in untruth. I think a liar has no place on tiiis earth. As a matter of fact, (here are very lew when any deviation'from truth is necessary. Either you can turn the subject to something else, or you can avoid something that is not so. But there are times when for the sake of kindness to save another person's feelings if is best to skirt around the edge of truth.

Upon being given a present, for example, it is unforgivable to blurt out: "We'd, I think it is the ugliest tiling I've ever seen!" Or perhaps to blunt iy ask: "What in the world am I supposed to do with Has?" The birthday child who i.s giving a party should be coached in advance, not to say he already ha.s this, or doesn't want that, but to say instead: "Oh. how nice of you, to bring me a But io return to the expressions of politeness that are recognized as by mT.vone.

While he is very little it is almost impossible to find out whether he really saw the thinRs that he tells you he saw. or whether he imagined them. And yet to punish such a child for untruthfulness might be to rob the world of a future genius --in the realm of creative art. The soaring wings of imagination must not be clipped.

The duty of the parent of an imaginative child is to try to make him realize the necessity lor truth in matters of fact. A rather simple way to accomplish tins is by making it clear to him whether the game of the moment, is real or play. When telling him stories yourself, tell him they are all in the world of make believe by saying: "Lets pretend" as all children do, that the things around him are anything that your own or his imagination paints, and then quite consciously come back to the land that is real. Say, "The game has been put aside and now this is real." The chief problem is to give him free access to the world of make believe, but at the same time teach him to respect the restrictions of truth the world of fact. The make-believe world is not only that, of fairy talps and of all stories of fantasy but those which he himself makes up, and those which lie knows are made up to be told to him.

It doesn't make any differ ence wnat metnoci you use so long as it teaches the child the difference between the tactful evasion whose motive is courtesy and also the avoidance of boasting and the evasions of truth whose motive is the saving of his own face. "No, Thank You." When he goes to someone's house and is offered a dish he doesn't like, he must not answer, "I hate it;" he just says, "No, thank you." On the other hand, of course, if the hostess asks him. "Why. Johnny, don't you like rice pudding?" he might at least shave down the truth from the fact that he hates it by saying, "I don't care for it very much." When the child with whom he goes to play, shows him something that this child loves very much, Johnny would certainly be a very rude little boor if he were to say, "Your engine is no good; it doesn't even wind up! I've got a great big one that goes by electricity; I've got lots and lots of toys all nicer than yours!" That is the kind of a child everyone would like to spank, but it is really his parents who deserve the spanking. It is they who ought to have trained him to try to find something nice about Harry's engine.

At least he could say that "You can't hurt your fingers the way you do on an electric one!" No less important and far easier to understand, i.s another aspect of the integrity expected of the man whom the child will some day become. This is the trustablllty of his word and of his promise. Teaching a child understanding of his duty in regard to a promise i.s very much easier than teaching him to understand his obligation to truth, because there is 110 excuse whatsoever for the willful breaking of a promise. Some unforseen accident may prevent, its fulfillment but, never anything within his own control. In order that, a child shall understand the full obligation of his word, it is necessary that the grown people who have charge of him, keep their own word absolute ly.

To break a promise to a child is not only an experience in disappointment because something he looked forward to never came to pass, but his shattered belief in the ord of the grown person is undermining to his own sense of honor. The honor of his word is one of the first things that a child must learn if he is to be rated among those who are possessed of integrity. The rule of integrity says plainly: If you make a promise you must, keep it. You must live up to the honor of your word, or you will be held in contempt by all men. If you are not willing to keep a promise then you must not make it in the first place.

If a child refuses to make a promise, well, then he is stubborn, insubordinate, willful, naughty, anything you like: but he is still in full possession of his honor. One last word about the world of let's pretend winch in a child's mind i' near to the bright light (d truth: Never, never accuse a child who is playing "Let's pretend" that is telling a He. Remember that a lie Is. and must be to him. the ugliest thing in the world.

The imliest lie in the world is the one forbidden by the commandment tn the "Thou shall not bear lalse witness." To tell a lie in cowardice; to 1H1 a lie for gain or to avoid "(l puni.snmont nose are all the blackest of blark lies. On the otlur hand, to try your best to rnojd the truth, even to press it when rieeessary to the verge of un-1 1 ii for a reason of kindness or men is tar closer to the heart of truih', than to repeat something accurately and mereilevdy, that will enavy hurt the heart of some one.

Eighteen ninety-one was a big year in Missoula-s history. Marcus Daly completed the construction of the old Donohue building at Higgins and West Main, recently torn down. The building was occupied by the Hennessy company. D. J.

Donohue came up from the Bitter Root hi 1896 and became owner of the store. Miss Menard had made such a record with the Hennessy people that they took her to Butte with them. In 1897 she married J. L. Chevigny, a Butte contractor, and three years later she returned to Missoula.

Mrs. Chevigny tells with great pride of having made sales totaling $1,500 in three days. The store manager kindly gave her a day off in recognition of her work. Frank L. Darbee, 628 South Fourth street, west, is the only Hennessy store manager now surviving, so far as Mrs.

Chevigny knows. "I think he was about the best manager the store ever had," she declares. A. J. King, now associated with the advertising department of The Missoulian, was a clerk at the Hennessy store when Mrs.

Chevigny was there. Mrs. Chevigny lives in an apartment here. Her daughter is in Butte and her son is in Los Angeles. Susan Gaylord she again aptly conveys to us the picture of the universal qualities of womanhood the world over.

Susan's life is one of conflict with these about her and within herself, as, not satisfied with her home, her husband and her children, she must reach out with her hands and eventually she becomes a great sculptor. "THE ANNl'LET OF GILT." By Phoebe Taylor. Asey Mayo detective fans will find a new element of surprise in this new story by Phoebe Taylor. Although it has the familiar Cape Cod background, a distinctly foreign element enters in as an exotic blonde and a houseful of foreign servants with curly daggers in their sashes take over Hector Colvin's house. Following the finding of the dead woman's body, Asey finds himself tricked, decoyed, robbed and baffled until suddenly something from his own past life enables him to find the right clue to this baffling mystery.

"THE GREAT AMERICAN FAMILY'." By Lee Shippey. This humorous story records the hopes and dreams, the struggles and the every-day comedies of a family so typically American that the reader feels that it might well have been his own. Gregorie and Sylvie had planned to settle down to let Greg write the great American novel, but the increasing responsibilities of their growing family condemned him to constant "pot-boiling." This is the gay, yet deeply revealing story of those years. "REBELLION OF LENNIE BARLOW." By Phil Stong When Lennie and his family moved from the South to a little village in Iowa, he learns that to these Northerners he is still a Southern rebel. This was largely because the school teacher's brother was still suffering from wounds received at Chickamauga and she hated all rebels.

The whole town became embroiled in an unexpected struggle until Uncle Zeph himself quieted it. Mr. Strong's intimate knowledge of these rural people and his wit and excellent characterization makes this simple story of a little Southern boy one of outstanding interest. "LITTLE MISS REDHEAD." By Gra.ce Irwin. This entertaining story for eighth grade girls proves also ft searching, understanding picture of the average girl In the seventh and eighth grade today.

The failure in examinations, new and old friends, school picnics and many other trials and tribulations common to girls in these grades are all a part of this splendid story. "CHEEKY." By Josephine I.au. Younger readers will love this story of Cheeky, the cunning prairie dog of prairie dog town. Later he is captured and taken as a pet to a nearby ranch, and here he has many thrilling adventures and gets into a great deal of mischief. When he again returns to prairie dog town it is to become their mayor.
