| Your Children
| By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
v _____ J
Let children run in their bare
feet. It lo good for them, not only
because it toughens them and gives
them air, but because it strengthens
the arches.
Many mothers have a decided in
hibition against it—it isn’t gentle
manly and it isn’t ladylike! As soon
as Tommy or Betty Is four years
old. on go the shoes to stay. What
would our friends think if thev saw
our children running about the
streets like ragamuffins? Well, arc
we bringing up friends or children?
The children don’t need to run
about the street anyway They
shouldn’t be on the street at all fof
that matter. They should be play
ing in their own nice yards (all chil
dren should have a yard i or on the
porches. A city child i* simply out
of luck if he has no choice and I
am sorl'y for that
Children can be washed and dress
ed at three o’clock and shoes put on
That's as it should be, but playtime
in summer is barefoot time, and wp
can put our inhibitions and squeam
ishnes.s behind us. I hope far enough
I to give tile youngsters some free
dom
Little sandals that protect the
soles of the feet but that permit the
same muscular development that re
sult.'; from “going barefoot" are ex
cellent, but there is something about
ground contact that the children
need more of, and that they don’t
get. Their feet need it too.
One mother I know puts dimin
utive bathing suits on her children
every morning arid they play around
in them all day. J7ie.se suits are
merely short 6 and shoulder stmtis.
She has one of those new-idea shal
low movable tanks in the back yard
that is easily filled with the hose
and empties by means of a little
side faucet over the thirsty grass at
night.
Bakers of Mud-pies
The children have disregarded the
nifty white sand pile and are busy
making regular mud-pies in the
corner of the lot. They mould
things out of the sticky mud, dry
them In the sun. and play store.
She has laid in a quantity of play
money. They wear big farmer hats
bought at the ten-cent store to keep
the sun off their heads, hut they
are as brown as berries at that. The
yard Is hedged all around, which Is
a great comfort,
I often wonder why we Ameri
cans waste our yards so. We sur
round ourselves with lawns to the
edge of the walk, and to the neigh
bors’ lawns on the right and left.
Then we stay in our house rather
than face the publicity of the out
side world.
The time will come when we will
nwnken to our privileges and bless
ings, and consider that our own
grounds, attractively planted and as
suring certain privacy and safety
for the children, are our own do
mains to enjoy. Shrubs and hedges
are not expensive and grow fast. -
Outdoor life in ever so little a
garden Is a Joy. The people of
Europe discovered that long ago.
Outdoor meals, outdoor entertain
ment. outdoor aid, right at home—
the street kept out by shrub walls
or hedges. Streets now are iiy
thoroughfares. * .
In such a sanctunv we nee lot
worry about the chtHpi. If ley
are barefoot we ne®H t not
about glass or stones or nails.■
I do wish It were possible fog ev
ery family with children to h 0 P
house and a yard. I don’t believe
there is a substitute.

Dick Russell Says
Youth No Bar To
Holding Office
ATLANTA, July 26—Opponents candidate
of R. B. Russell, Jr., for
Governor, seem concerned about his
age, he says. While he was a mem
ber of the Oeorgla legislative for
ton years and was twice elected
Speaker of the House, he is con
siderably younger than most of his
opponents, it is known.
“My opponents appear to be much
concerned about my age and are
seriously seeking to make it an is
sue in this campaign,” Mr. Russell
said. “However, they have shown
no haste to accept my invitation to
meet them all face to face belbre
the people of every congressional
district to let the people decide
whether extreme age is necessary
before a man can serve his state in
public office, though some of them
have been stumplnfc the state as
candidates for ofMt as long as 1
can remember.
“I lay no claim to naving won
the World War, but I hold an hon
orable discharge showing that I was
old enough to serve my country in
time of national stress, twelve years
ago.”
Expensive Call
VIENNA, July 28.—It won’t be
so bad to get the telephone bill, but
wait until Louis M. Macudian, of
Detroit, get his doctor's bill. The
American took ill here recently and,
rather than trust local physicians,
called the United States by long
‘‘distance telephone and conversed
with his physician. The doctor
suggested a diet.
Your Change, Sir
LONDON, July 28,-The latest
111 ticket-vending machines is to
be used at London’s Tube and Un
derground stations. These mach
ines are different than the present
in that the right amount of
coins is not necessary. If the train
wishes a ticket and has not
the correct amount, he can deposit
any coin in the machine, receive
his ticket and the change coming
from this deposit.
