"Honor your father and your mother thlB has been tho Injunction that parents havo too often and too long held ns a throat over their offspring. Honor your children such a re versal of the Fourth Commandment observed by parents would do more good In tho world, In my opinion, than n tyrrnnlzlng assertion of parental authority. It Is well for children to honor tholr parents when thoy deserve such honor. But parents should first seek to merit this by tholr treatment of their children. Wo may talk nbout tho evils of modern llfo, of deceit nnd dishonesty In business, politics and tho domestic relations; but these evils can't bo eradicated until tho source Is removed, and tho souico is in tho homo. Men are what their parents havo mudo them. Cowardice, treachery and dishonesty In llfo Invariably develop from seed sown In tho child llfo." Miss Holcn Ware, who has distinguished herself by her charucterlzatlons In dramas of modern life, was sitting In tho reception room of her BUlto In tho Vcndlg last evening. Miss Ware hnd been discussing tho problems of modern life ns affording material for drama, and tho conversation turned from marriage to tho relation of parent and child. Miss Ware, whoso personality 13 as magnetic as It is em phatic. Is trenchantly direct In her opinions. Life, to Miss Ware, Is a serious thing. "In llfo," eho declared, "the absolutely greatest things aro truth nnd Justice. All our evils, all our problems, exist In tho lack of truth nnd Justice. To get down to funda mentals, this applies to business, politics, tho relations of men and women, tho Inequalities, oppressions and wrongs of our social and economic life. And to get to tho cause of untruth, injustice, dishonesty, lying and deceit wo must go right to tho home whoro the child is reared. 'Sparo tho rod and spoil the child' is the very command which has spoiled char acter and spoiled life. If wo want to correct abuse wo must correct tho cause, and wo must, therefore, correct parents. "Fear is the fundamental evil, the original sin. In human life. Now children aro taught to fear their parents, nnd later to fear their teachers. Fear makes cowards. Punishment miwBMmWA ,ct3 colossal malfeasances of financiers nro ho more egregious truth the criminal Inconsldcrrtte ness and unklndness of the parents that Atari children wrong by making them selfish, fearful and untruthful. "Husbands nnd wives generally lack full sympathy and understanding, nnd In nlno out of ten caBes tho husband Is not absolutely honest and frank with his wife This results In antagonism, suspicion, lack of respect and tin happiness. Then theso Very couples, when they becomo parents, bring up their children In such a way ns to make It Inevitable that they enter similar conditions. Truth, and absolute truth, should be obsorved In human relations, and married people should religious ly renllzo their responsibility to the lives they bring Into tho world, nnd tho veneration mid lovo duo those lives. Let parents first apply tho command of honor nnd respect on their part. This would do moro good than civic cam paigns, womnn suffrage propaganda nnd anti trust IcglslaUon. Tho reform of Incompetent, unloving, Irresponsible, misunderstanding par ents would mean tho reform of the race." FLASHES FROMSTARS" Miss Georgia Calnc, playing with Adele." nt the Garrlck Theatre, owns ono of the finest konnels on Long Island. In this kennel Is a fpanlel named Sherlock Holmes. "Sherlock Holmes," said Miss Calne, "Is tho champion burglar router of the world. Why. ho can de tect a burglar n mllo off, and la bo bitter against them that ho cannot bear to see a bur glar oven in moving pictures.

Eva Davenport, bounding nnd buxom, spent tho past summor at Mount Clemens, whero she observed a painfully restricted diet, taking nil tho baths on tho program, sat packed In Ico an hour ench day after a steam bath, and wont through various forms of exorcise guaranteed to reduce weight. "I wns feeling highly elated and thinking my old friends would notlco my loss," she said tho other day, "until I came back to tho vicinity of Broadway and 42d street. The vory first day of my appearance my conceit was given a crush ing blow by tho policeman who helped me across tho street back of tho Times Building. Why, how-d-you-do. Miss Davenport,' he said I am glad to see you.' 'And I'm glad to see you,' I returned, for I havo a special fondness for policemen they have helped mo over many a rough place. 'I notice t'-'at you have gotten thin,' said I. 'Yes,' ho answered, 'but I Bee you haven't.' And they talk about tho gallantry of men!" Allco Gale, who has scored a pronounced suc cess in "Todny," which will be ten at tho Adelphl Theatre, does not believe In being pessimistic about anything, and Is very op timistic as to the prospects for general pros perity In this country, desplto tho European war. "If wo let the European war discourage us, what would wo do If the world should come to an end?" sho asks pointedly. "Lot us bo cheerful. Nothing Is so bad It might not im worse." "There's a good deal of talk about how easy you can fool the farmer." said Raymond Hitch cock, "but they are right there- with their answer. Just tho samo. "This summer I spent a few weeks In a.

ON THEIR WAY TO CHURCH With the opening of tho horso show today nnd tho coming October days, society Is fast returning from tho various summer resorts, and yesterday qulto n number of fashlonabl per s-ons onded tholr way up and down Walnut sttcet toward the various churches. Miss Phoebe Williams Adams, who has lately roturned from n. trip In the mountains, was foen yesterday with hor fiance, George J. Hard ing. Miss Adams was wearing a tailored suit of navy bluo serge, which was made with a narrow skirt and double vlrrulur ruffle ovor skirt. The rout was cut .lightly shorter than hip length and was hunt; in a square effect, The sleeves were In a thrtie.ijuarter length and v.ero finished with cuffs covered with a collar nnd revere of white plqiio. MUn Adams' hat was a high. crowned sailor model with a nar row turned trim, and wo trimmed with a one-inch band of black grongruin ribbon. DaiU navy bluo was ul.o n-'Uited by Mlsa Charlotte Hare, wh'it suit was the plainer stylo of tailor-modi and ery nurt and mn nish In cut. The ekirt wn plain and narraw and the coat "as fuutuned with large black buttons. Miss Hare's hat was a iiml-tars straight-brimmed model of a dove shade of brown; the crown was entirely surrounded by a handsome ottrich feather of the eanie shade, ono end of which stood high UP St the side of the front Mrs. Oeorgo J. Harding has chosen a stun, nlng suit which Is a combination of blacb and white. Jt is made with a three-tiered skin of black-and-white lupherd's plaid- The short cat, which fei flntslwd at the back with a rounded (lure, is composed entirely of black, and is fastened at the front with a large bl.uk button. A email tonus of black tactiuercd straw, which is trimmed about the top of th crown with tiny mercuo-ulnj; feathers, com pletcs this guod-lookins costume which i woin with a bluuse of white crepe de ihine. Is tho cause of misdoing nnd crime. If, in stead of threatening children, parents encour aged them always to tell tho truth without fear of punishment thero would bo les3 wrong doing In tho world today. If parents honored tholr children there would be more honor among men. "What Is tho condition In tho average home? A child is restricted by rigid rules. It is trained to seo only the paronts' point of view. The father and mother never consider tho child's point of view. The child, In playing, acci. dentally breaks a vase, or has some mlshaii. It Is then scolded or Sloped. Tho result is that the child, i.-fttead of admitting trivial nil.Uolu;, basins to lie It blames whatever accidents happen on ih servant, the dog or the cat. That child continues to lie through life, into the plastic nature of tho Immaturo being the element of fear has been implanted, und with fear, deceit and cowardice, ,vii the later Kindnesses of life will not tliminato that nuison In the character. "A child should never be punished. I would never scold a child. 'Now if you don't stop th4t III panl5 you-' bow often do wo heur this? A child should over he threatened. A child should never be visited with outbursts of temper. Scolded and whipped, as the aver age child is. it cannot but develop a bullying and untmthful nature. "Reforms are not made spontaneously or mlraculouly-lther la political affairs or hu roan lives. We aro all what we have grown to be, and our children v. ill be what wo train them to be. The great reform to be aeoin pushed In modern life Is that of unthlnlving. unsympathetlo. Ignorant parents.
