'D..t1amphell, Duties of i-Mothers .el Guthrie IIlStiLl_Il..-3 One of the most important dut- ies I thinkare he duties we -owe to our childrer. Some strong- minded Inen tell us that` the des-| tiny of nations lies far more in the hands of women, the mot.hers, than in the possession of power. The beloved mothers of large families-are the foundations of the race. Lin coln said: All that 1 am and all that I hope` to bell o.we to my mother. These are the words of only a few great minds, but they serve to show that motherhood is a very re- sponsible duty. V ' -.,...;1..-..v,. ,_,.....-\..t..-.:4:r..-. nun _ If she is 1ow-spirited, gloomy! or cross or nervous, her humor is reflected in the discontentment of the children; On the other hand if she is cheerful and bright she? radiates sunshine throughout the. whole home. `Under suhh cir- cumstances tasks arje easier to; perfot-m for cheerfulness is as` contagious as the measles or the mumps. ...g..,..;.. ...l..-. L... 1...-....-. l.lLlLI..ll1J\Ju How can a woman who has been blessed with children. fail to be- interested in their mental, moral and spiritual.growt,h? It is like watching a flower unfurl its pet- als and daily lecome more beau- tiful. How can a mother delegate duties, which combine so much delight, to the hands otan ignor- ant maid,` who has usually no interest whatever in the children, except. on account of the wages which come t.o her at the end of the week for taking careof them, -All mothers are not alike how- ever. There are many _mothers of many minds. There" are all sorts and conditions`of mothers. There are some who do not know the meaning of the word duty: who. either from ignorance or indifference, ignore its place in their world. There areignorant mothers who really do not know that they owea duty to the child- ren whom they have brought. in.` to the world. Other mothers have a.` mistaken `idea of duty when they allow their passion for self_sacrice to be overdone to thrived on it, `because it is a natural pure food. What good for wee folk will, as a rule, be found good for grown-ups, too. The conditions -of scrupu- lous cleanliness under which these biscuits` are baked corr ponds in effect tothe cleanliness of - ` your home kitchen. . , 57 IO ~ the extent'"of- making their child- ren t`houg'litless and selsh. Many ztlirough their own selshness and _l0Ve'of pleasure make their duty -to j their `~ children 7 of secondary , importance-.-it .'I`he? "wise mother selects the wholesome ~1`n`iddle ground, indulging in the maternal` _ within i -love of `sel1'-sacrice bounds, and cultivating help1ul- ness and self-reliance in her children% at the-. same time. > child usually.regard__s his teacher at school as the fountain-head of . all knowledge, but th reason for {this idolatry lies in th fact that iliismother has failed him in "the `hour of need. Perhaps she has been too -busy `with household cares or t.oo absorbed in society for too indifI'eren't_to pay attention to his many questions. The ac- `cumulation of I don't knows {weighs heavily upon his little "mind and gradually he begins to wonder whyhis mother does not know as much as his-teacher. As time goes onlhe makes more com- parisons. which may grow in spite of his filial affection into a loss of respect. And thus a mother. who has allowed herself to rust out or who has never tak- . en the time nor the trouble to _ keep up with her children, has deliberately broken -one of the -delicate links of that chain of condence between. mother and child which binds him to his des- ' tiny\; As the years go by the child looks to others for help in his life problems and the influence of his mother is weakened and he_r direction in the expression of his individuality is. lost. Never was there greater interest manifested than in these days in mother s , . meetings and clubs of all `kinds by which mothers are brought to- gether to exchange ideas, hear good music and practical talks F l _ Hon `all important subjects. 5 I I 5 Some mothers spend too much time on some form of worry, and {it is not those who have the most `cause for anxiety rwho worry most. The worrying woman is frequently the woman who does not have sui1`ieie`nt sleep or.who, vthough she may spend the-proper number of hours in bed, fails to get the rest that foll_ows the thorough relaxation of the body --letting the bed hold her, in; stead of her holding it `---.and the emptying of the mind as far as possible of all active. thoughts.` Insufficient air in the sleeping room at night has an injurious effect upon the mental, as well as , the physical health, and the same`, is true of the lack of open-air' rie and exercise during the day.; The mother who, when shei recognizes the need of rest, an lay aside her work and drop upon her couch, relaxing entirely in body and mind and rising in ten or fifteen minutes to resume her occupation with new energy, `is using the strongest sort of pre- ventive measure against the in- roads of morbid anxiety. A con- fatigue somewhere and if on the . first approach of the state of anxiety one would make use of 'this same, procedure many at- tacks of worry would be nipped iii the bud. By observing a few of these simple. laws of nature we would nd ourselves in a- strong`er position to carry out the duties that involve upon us. One of our many duties is to care, for the health of our children: Plenty of good nourishing food, warm clothing and an abundance of fresh air and sunlight, also cleana liness which is next to godliness. dition of worry usually means them. i They have learned one The training" of the child should `l begin when they are very young. ` Suppose they want a certain/thing ` and you don t wish to give it to ` them. They cry and after a time you give it to them to quiet` lesson-that if they cry long 1 enough mother will give them what they want.` It is our duty then to be gentle but firm and 4 they will soon learn that I Mamma s `Yes or `No always ' means `Yes or `No. AAs the twig is bent the tree is inclined. feel angry. There are times when children need punishing, but it should be done very wisely. There are many.dierent ways of pun-` 'ishment.' If your little one in- sists on `doing what you have told him not to do, take himalone and tell him his faults, that you are sorry he issueh a naughty boy, that__because he has-done wrong you must punish him. Occasion- ally whipping may be necessary, but usually if you make them sit in a chair for a time, send them to bed, or take some play tpyifrom them "that they prize very, much, ',:11 1-- .0-.. `I.....1J..... 11...... 41....
