YORK MARKET Old Post Office Richmond Hill Examples like this which. could be multiplied many times, have nothing to do with heredity whfch says the opposite; the smarter the parents, the smarter the child; Well, then, what is the “catch"’? It is that the mother who is quick. alert. efficient, would rather do a thing herself than wait for the lalbored, clumsy efforts of her offspring. For mother to grab the job away not only deprives the youngster of his or her natural interest in trying and learning, ‘but adds the insult of implied! inferiority. so that self~con- fidence is lost at the same time that skills are limited. GOOD ENOUGH An important fellow met an Irish- man in the street. “I was just thinking. Pat,” said he, “that you would make a fine monkey if you had a tail." “Sure, it’s queer." said Pat. “I was just thinking m’eself that you would make a fine monkey without any alteration at all.” SMART MOTHERS -â€" DULL DAUGHTERS It is odd but true that in many cases the smarter the mother the duL’Ier the child. I know one de- voted mother and daughter who a1- Ways went places together and had much in common. This mother was a woman of particular charm and attractiveness. She spoke well and interestingly. So well, indeed, that her daughter felt no need‘ to add anything to the conversation and actually became a wallflower beâ€" cause of her mother’s unusual social ease Children even long tent to do amount of Children Will normally try to help even long before they are compe- tent to do so. i This means a certain amount of breakage and spoilage of materials and a good deal of temperâ€" trying to the grownâ€"ups. But it is a phase that must live encouraged. You can give the child some cheap If you can find the reason you can find' the cure. Children are keen to explore. In that case go adven- turing with him on an oceasional day’s outing. Again, they may be bored‘ or unhappy at home. The rout- ines may *be monotonous, the disci~ plihe too severe, suitable companion- ship lacking. Again, if they find they have a certain power over you, get out from under it ‘by affecting indifference. In one such case, par- ents of a boy of five were advised to encourage him to go next time he suggested it. So when this Occaâ€" sion arrived, his mother said, “Very well. Would you care to wear your best suit and shall I pack a little lunch for yOu?” 'He departed hap~ pily. Dinn‘ertime passed and no lit- tle lboy. Afterwards the parents sat on the porch getting more worried! every minute. The family cat joined them. Finally a small figure was seen coming up the darkening street. He came slowly nearer while the parents preserved as much the appearance of indifference as they could. The little rboy sidled up to the porch, looked at the cat and asked. “Is that the same cat you had before I went away?” Ellen iMcLOughlin will answer questions of readers pertaining to parentâ€"child relationships â€"‘ no medical or legal advice.

It is therefore necessaryl to think in terms of future results; rather than immediate benefits. Tool much help is a hindrance to a child. Many young people grow lazy and indifferent because they know they can ask a smart parent anything and get the right answer. Without realizing it the parents do the child’s lessons for him and he learns noth- ing by actually looking things up for himself in the Book of Know- ledge or other work or using his own mind to work out his problems. Keep children independent and self-reliâ€" ant, .let them know you are stand- ing by and ready to counsel, but let them also know they must do their own jobs so they may personally 'benefit from each experience. You can give the child some cheap goods to sew instead! of costly fab- rics. Similarly you can allow the little girl to dry only certain dishes whose breakage will not be a major calamity. But even if the jobs are not done perfectly, keep the inter- ests alive .by noticing progress, showing patiently What improve- ments are pess'ilble, and giving en- couragement along the way. “Run Away” Threat Mrs. D. H.: My ’boy of eight is con- stantly threatening to run away whenever we don't do as he wants. Can this be stopped? By Ellen McLaughlin Director, Children’s Institute To-day’s Parent THURSDAY, MARCH 30th, 1939. York County Had a Giant in Old Days The modern comic strip 'version of Pop Eye is nothing compared to the feats of a York County native way back in the early part of the last century. Tom Gardiner must have been the strongest man ever to live in this banner county accord- ing to files of an old New Bruns- wick newspaper recently found in a St. John library. He was born in York County in 1798. At Saint John he lifted a 1,200-pound anchor. Once when an- noyed he raised two ZOO-pound- men from their fee-t‘and banged their heads together. On another occa- sion he playfully tore up, roots and all, an apple tree with a trunk four inches thick. Holding it only by a rung with one hand, he could' lift above his head a chair bearing a 175-pound man. Gardiner knew nothing' about wrestling but he defeated? a famous wrestler from Nova Scotia. When word of this reached the Miramichi district of New Brunswick the great- est wrestler in‘ that region set out for Tom’s .hcusle to issue a. chall- Clerkâ€"40h, no, not the slightest, sir,- I am getting used to that. We were married last spring. enge GOT THE HABIT Managerâ€"That young woman whom I placed at this counter a year ago already knows more aboufl: the bushes than ye]; (I0, and' I find that I shall have to put her at the head of the department, though I fear it will be rather unpleasant for you to be under her orders after be- ing in charge so long. v ‘ BALING Hay & Straw Was In The Family Strength ran in the Gardiner fam- ily. Tom’s sister, also born in York County who answered) the challeng- er’s knock, was described in the 01d newvspaper as “a cyclone in skirts.” She told the Miramichi man her bro- ther was away bud: “as ycu’ve come all this distance for some sport I’ll wrestle you myself.” When the visitor scoffed the girl replied with a crunching headiock. Three times in 15 minutes she pinrn- ed his shoulders to the ground. He didn‘t wait to fling a challenge at Tom. Gardiner was quiet and ordinarin peaceful, but in a York ‘COun-ty lum- ber camp somewhere between To- ronto andI Stouffvill-e a bully tor- mentedl him so much he lashed out with his fist. The bully crumpledLâ€" dead‘. Tom fled, smearing he’d never s’crike another man. He became a d‘eckhand on boarts plying the Miss- issippi. One day a huge church bell was taken aboard a boat on which he worked. The captain found the heavy bell was in the way on deck and wondered how he could! get it moved. Tom overheard. Grinning, he carried the bell to another place while the captain dined. When the skipper came on deck again and asked what had‘ happened to the bell Tom said he had moved it. The captain cursed him, believ- ing Gardiner was lying. “But I did move 7t, sir," T'om per- sisted‘. So Tom struck. The single :blow rocked the fighter’s head' back with such force he suffered a ‘broken neck and died. Gardiner fled a third! time and was never heard from again. “I’ll move you, you imperrtinenlt liar,” roared the skipper, planting his boot on the seat of Tom’s trou- sel's. Tom saw red. He forgot his vow. He struck the captain: one blow with his fist. Again he kill-edfi a man, and again he became a fugitive from justice. He fled west. “Stop it or I’ll have to hit you back,” said‘ Tom. “You yellow dcg, you would! not have courage enough to hit a baby,” netorted the prize-fighter. There he met a drunken prize- fighter who boasted he could fell an ox with a blow. The man picked a fight with Tom. He rained} punches on the latter’s face.
