Let us first respect the child's rights and say, "Yes, it is your ball, but won't you let your little friend play with it?" By following this method 'we shall find the child becoming mere and more aware of his playmate's as well as his own rights. He will share his favorite blocks with another not because some grown-up in authority says, "You must," but voluntarily because he res- pects the rights of another to share in his play.

Animals and Birds Can Hear Sounds That Human Beings Cannot Distinguish. During one of the big battles of the war the sounds of the terrific can- nonadtog in pregt'ess was seen move fug across lila sky. Great paraller arcs of light and shade were viewed passing swiftly across the clouds, not by one person only, but by all members of a battery of artillery. These bands moved with . the exact speed of sound waves—at t the rate of a tulle in five seconds— and the apace between the bands was larger for the big guns than for the small. This strange sight lasted for about ten minutes, and appears to have de- pended upon the relative positions of the observers, the guns, and the sun. Sound, as we all know, is caused by waves in gases, liquids or solids. In a vacuum—an empty space—sound does not exist. If you could fire a twelve -inch gun from the top of Mount Everest, the sound would be but feeble. Could you carry it much high- er, its discharge would be inaudible, There are rays of light which the eye cannot see, and there are sound waves which the human ear cannot catch. - Ask yourself if you can hear the cry of a bat. Any person who, at the age of forty, is able to hear the thin squeak of the bat, has reason to con- gratulate himself on being possessed of exceptionally good hearing. The squeak Is too high -1t bas too many vibrations per second to be heard by any car that is not very delicate. Silence That Terrifies. Some years ago Mr. Galton, the famous anthropologist, invented and constructed a whistle which, by means of an adjustable plug, could be render- ed so shrill that presently it ceased to be heard by human ears. But—Isere is the curious part of it —after the sound of the whistle had ceased to be audible to any human ear, a dog was still able to Bear it, and came readily when it was blown. Animals and birds hear far better than Han. It was noticed during the war that pheasants in coverts on the East Coast of Englana were disturbed by the noise of guns at sea, when even children (whose hearing is quicker than that of older folk) could hear nothing at all. Sound travels better across water than across land, By actual experi- ment it has been found that 4.eress water a person could be distinctly heard, reading aloud, at a distance of 140ft., whereas on land the same voice only travelled 76ft. Across ice, too, and particularly in hard frost, sound travels amazingly. Lieutenant Foster, on an Arctic ex- pedition, found x- pedition,found that he could converse with another man quite easily across the mouth of a bay which was a mile and a quarter wide. Perfect silence is far rarer than most of us imagine. Even in the quietest room in the depth of the coun- try, on the calmest night, there are always sounds. Absolute silence is only found in deep caves and aband- oned mines, and is a really terrifying phwmenon. - I1etmalres tie car ache in a desperate effort to catch some sound, however tiny, In such a place the beating of one's own heart and the rush of blood through the arteries will became per- ceptible. er- ec t ible. p =�- - =lam Have Your Cleaning Done Ey Experts.

Lack of cotton and wool for Gorman textile factories during the war brought about some valuable dis- coveries in regard to the usefulness of other fibres. The stiuglug nettle was planted over wide areas, and its fibre proved so satisfactory that even now 100,000 tons of it are being used annually In Germany for textile fabrics. Au excel- lent thread Is also made from it. A new and very promising fibre, Which affords n good substitute for wool, is obtained from the common bulrush, or "cattail," of the swamps and stream banns, Its yield is many times greater than that of the nettle. Stapes, a fieshyleaved plant, has proved available for the production of a valuable artilioial fibre, which is ob- talnetl by seducing it with chemicals to a pulp ttnd passing the latter through a group of fine nozzles. The stuff Issues from the nozzles in deli- cate lhreade, which are span and woven. This fibre is much cheaper than artificial silk, and fabrics made from it resemble cotton or wool, ac• cording to the method of treatnicalt. A number of large factories in Ger- many are now engaged in tate produc- tion of paper pulp yarns. These are not to be confused with the paper yarns manufactured in that country during the'war, which wor,.l made by cutting paper into narrow wins, wet- ting them and twisting tiiam into threads.
