Moreover, we are told, he has de- clined "!,-., of advancement In his church to continue as an Instructor of youth. Recently he made an animal report to the corporation of St. Paul's Si-huol, and Charles P.

The great educator sat In hl.t study and talked of his views on youth and tholr more diffi- cult parents. To basin with, wo Met down the rules for parents which Mr. Haven Kiinimarizes from his tutor- vlow with Dr. Drury: "1. Makn the second decade ot youths' lives breezy, wholesome and simple. "2. Provide the spur of necessity for 'in in, especially if you are wealthy. "3. Don't invite other people's children to parties primarily arranged for elder people. "4. Don't destroy young peoplo's characters In order to mako one of your parties 'successful.' "5. Don't offer children In their 'second decade' liquor, unless they are your own children. (Which rule Dr. Drury really directs to members of tho 'second decade" themselves. It runs: Don't drink unless at your f;ith- atiou. i. -i In January what you contemplate "for him in July. "8. Don't hesitate to place your boy of from 10 to 19 in unsupervised situations In life. There Is an inner armor boys possess during these years that keeps them from the smirch nt the world. "9. Don't put the smirch that creeps into older minds Into the minds of those in tlie 'second decade.' "10. (Jive your growing boy a thrill- ins job. OIIH that taxes his powers and puts him mi his own responsibility. "11. Don't 'fiddle around' with your boy or girl. 'Theirs not to make reply' durins tho 'second decade."

The And save them from tha menaces that confront all young people." Dr. Drury advises giving work to boys during the long summer vaca- tion, and eighteen, he says, "is none too early for parents to send their boys out into the world and into un supervised occupations. There is no armor of Innocence about n boy un till he reaches the age of twenty years that protects him from the smirch of the world. One of the greatest mistakes elders make is to assume that the smirch they may have received from the world Is also upon their boys." And that brought reporter and educator to tha "rule- with-rcaaon" precept: "The day of the premptory father is gone. That man is rare who can say 'Go here. Go there.' and expect obedience to-day. There is plenty of cheerful obedience, however. But there must bo no rule without reason. modern tendency is for the parent to| The wise father js he who is willing deprive children of their childhood to be reasonable.

Far out in the China Sea lies an island, Cullon, on which 0,000 lepers are hopefully awaiting the return of a former New Orleans society girl. Folklore in India told wonderful tales of lepers who went into th woods and came out bealed. Dorothy Paul Wade, her doctor husband, and six nuns have made such tales come true. Not for one leper, but for 1,500. While Dr. H. Windsor Wade, fa- mous pathologist, ministers to the needs of the stricken who have gath- ered on the island from China, Japan, Slam, Palestine and India, his wife is touring the United States in an ef- fort to gather J2.000.000 with which to carry on the work in the largest leper colony in the world. She has raised a million and three-quarters, and when she reaches her goal sha will return to Culiou, bearing with her hope tor those stricken with what was once termed an incurable dis- ease. Dr. Wade and his wife went to tha Philippines seven years ago. intend- ing to stay two years. Becoming in trested in the treatment of lepers, they remained at Culion, and havg watched 1500 cured lepers sail Joy- fully away. Mrs. Wade formerly was a leader in New Orleans' younger set. She is vivid; she is beautiful, with a beauty which the cool eye ot a camera can- not catch; she is an accomplished actress. Boats Steer Clear 'How can I describe my life so that you can get a picture of it?' she asks. "Much of tho time my husband and I are the on' white persons on the island with the exception ot the six nuns who live there. The island is flat, sun-baked. Small native boats sail by, for the most part giving the island a wldo berth." Visitors come and often slay far weeks to consult with her husband, not to while away t;ia hours OB a South Sea isle, but to watch with in- terest tlie efforts being made to bring life and hope to the lepers. Out- standing men of science and medicine father there. "I remember one atfernoon," sue said, "when I served tea on a Chinese tea table to a Harvard medical stu- dent, a Siamese prince, a Chinese doc- tor and a priest from Madrlr. Rut even when I have no visitors I am never bored or lonely. I have a pony and ride and hunt. I write lots, too." Mrs. Wade is a writer, a poetess and a member of the Authors' Lcagun j of Amorica. "Manila is only 200 miles away, yet we seldom go there. Two hundred milos in one ot tha native sailing boats often matins a journey of a week or more," Mrs. Wade saiJ. In tho seven ycara the Wades huv been at Culion, she has returned to America but twice, both times for tho purpose of raising; money to carry on the work. Coming this time at the personal request of Leonard Wood, former Governor of the Philippine*, Mrs. Wade haa lectured In 50 cities and has almost reached her goal ot $2,000,000.
