"What is it, Sou?" elle aided -then

Jack with hie face bloody and his left
eye fast ;welling shat, "What have
you boys been doing? Jack, liave you
beau fighting?"
"Yessiim," he muttered, just as his
father, Airs. Bridges' brother; entered:
"What's the trouble, Jaek,']ny lad?"
"Ho and Bill Fibley had a terribly
fight!" explained. Bebby,'who had kept
silent as long as, possible.
"What in the world were you fight -
Ma; about?" inquired Mrs. Bridges.
"I -Ie just picks on me all ' of; the
time, aucl I won't, . let anyone rag one
all; the tinge,' sullenly answered the
youthful combatant.
"Well, Son, you certainly aren't a
beauty right now, but a fellow has to
stand up for himself and' his own
riehtn," commended his father.
"lin not sure of the advisability of.
Preaching such :a philosophy to these
boys, Fred," reproved his sister.
"Shupks, Sis don't kip 1 ye tg de
a certain ''amount of 1s io Bing?
"No, I do , not think it necessary,"
said his sister seriously as she went
about the work of giving first aid to
her little nephew.
'The two boys had just come home
iron the afternoon school session, and
as she worked 'she .en ouraged them
to tell her more fully about the thou-.
bre.
"Moth& you know Bilt and the
other second grade boys all like to
tease the first graders especially
Jack and Densil."
"Why Jack and Densly?"
"I don't know -unless It is because
they both get so mad."
It's just for meanness and 'cause
they 'have a spite against atm," corn-
plained Jack.
"They'don't tease Chubby any more,
but they r.:e did at first," Bobby went
en to ex hi,
"Aw, he'sa - si.:sy—don't takebis
own part nor not in'," ^-ranted Jack:
in dis;;ust.
"What does he do, Son?"
"Well, lie just etancls and grins
when fly , try to tease him or some-
times he _r ighs and says, ''Go on and
chase yoursel':"-
"He's "ot brave ono gh to stand up
for himself," broke in Jack.
"Oh, yes, lie's brave, Jack! Don't
you remember when they were teas-
ing little Dorothy ar 1 Tom slapped
her? Chubby doublr•i up his fist and
'went -right tatter tiro: r-1 made them
quit. ..e told me thr t his another said',
if he got mad at a littIe teasing he
tva.cn't a good sport nor a gentlenan,"
confided Bob. "Is that why you' don't
want me to fight when I get teased?"
"Yes, "'obb'y, I think Chub!•y must
have a very sensible mother, and I
agree with her that a real sport and
a true gentleman does not fight .ex-
cept on very rare occasions and when
by doing so he helps others as much
or more than himself."
Jack twisted arou„1 where he could
see his aunt better he joined in
again.
"Don't' We have to take our own
part, Aurt Frances? Won't the other
fellows run over us if we don't fight
' them?”
"Oh, t' ay might, sometimes, but not
very often. This isn't the first time
you have fought Bill, is it?"
Jack shook his head negativelyy.,
"Well, - ',es he sten teasing you?"
"No, he doesn't, and I'm .going to
fight himevery time until he does
stop it." An angry expression -was
again on the little fellow's face.
"Listen, Jack, do they tease Chubby
any more?„
No! Not hardly ever."
"He didn't fight them to make them
quit, .Bobby said he just grin( -d at
them and refused .to get angry or to
pay attention to, the teasing. That is
what will stop them more quicky than
anything r -u can do. They just keep
on teasing you because it makes you
angry and because you will fight about
it."
• "I declare, Sis," exclaimed her
brother, who had be -n watching and
listening all. this time, "I believe you
are right about this!' I am partly to
blame for Jack's attit-de, for I did not
want him to be a •fty but-neitherdo;
l: want him to be too ready ,to fight.
Or course selfish fights over. trivial
things won't do a boy any good. Jack,
you and I will talk this over later.
I must think back to the time when I
was a little boy, first. 'We'll all go
for a ride, now,"

Trust To Be Trusted
"Some years -ago," said J. J. Kelso,
the Ontario Superintendent of Chil-
dren's Aid Societies, "a fourteen year
old boy gave the police a lot of trou-
ble and after several warnings he
was arrested for theft and committed
to the reform school, .4 telephone
message was sent to the police that
if he were brought to the railway sta-
tion an official would look after him
the rest of the ,ray. Two officers ea-
companied him and to their great sur-
prise a young lady stepped up to
claim the lad. "But" they remon-
strated, 'he will get away from you
within five minutes after we leave.'
'No,' she said, 'if he will give me his
word of honor I will trust him fully.'
The boy readily assented' and the of-
feers departed, but only to go to an-
other end' of the building where they
could watch proceedings without be-
ing themselves observed. The lady
talked pleasantly with the boy, sent
him to buy her ticket, gave him her
valise and parcel to carry, and by
her evident sincerity in trusting him
completely won his regard. When
they were comfortably seated in the
train' the boy said, 'You know I would
have run away from tbose cops in a
minute, but I would go anywhere for
you.
"This young lady had learned that
there is a certain amount of chivalry
inherent even in the worst boys, and
if that can be successfully appealed
to then the task of reformation is
made easy."
