"We all need father," sighed Kitty tearfully, "but somehow mother grows a little more splendid every day. I believe she's trying to fill father's place and be herself too!" WE ALL NEED FATHER SIGHED KITTY TEARFULLY BUT SOMEHOW MOTHER GROWS A LITTLE MORE SPLENDID EVERY DAY I BELIEVE SHE'S TRYING TO FILL FATHER'S PLACE AND BE HERSELF TOO
he most interesting 'scolder' you ever listened to? I love to hear her do it, especially when somebody else is getting it. When it's I, I grow smaller and smaller, curling myself up like a little worm. Then when she has finished I squirm to the door and wriggle out. Other mothers say: 'If you don't, I shall tell your father!' 'Do as I tell you, and ask no questions.' 'I never heard of such behavior in my life!' 'Haven't you any sense of propriety?' 'If this happens again I shall have to do something desperate.' 'Leave the room at once,' and so on; but mother sets you to thinking." "Mother doesn't really scold," Kathleen objected. "No, but she shows you how wrong you are, just the same. Did you notice how Julia _withered_ when mother said we were not to look upon Beulah as a place of hiding?" "She didn't stay withered long," Kathleen remarked. "And she said just the right thing to dear old Gilly, for Fred Bascom is filling his head with foolish notions. He needs father to set him right.  TWO WENT INTO THE KITCHEN TOGETHER IS IT MOTHER THE MOST INTERESTING SCOLDER YOU EVER LISTENED TO I LOVE TO HEAR HER DO IT ESPECIALLY WHEN SOMEBODY ELSE IS GETTING IT WHEN IT''S I I GROW SMALLER AND SMALLER CURLING MYSELF UP LIKE A LITTLE WORM THEN WHEN SHE'S FINISHED I SQUIRM TO THE DOOR AND WRIGGLE OUT OTHER MOTHERS SAY IF YOU DON'T I SHALL TELL YOUR FATHER DO AS I TELL YOU AND ASK NO QUESTIONS I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH BEHAVIOUR IN MY LIFE HAVEN'T YOU ANY SENSE OF PROPRIETY IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN I SHALL HAVE TO DO SOMETHING DESPERATE LEAVE THE ROOM AT ONCE AND SO ON BUT MOTHER SETS YOU TO THINKING MOTHER DOESN'T REALLY SCOLD KATHLEEN OBJECTED NO BUT SHE SHOWS YOU HOW WRONG YOU ARE JUST THE SAME DID YOU NOTICE HOW JULIA WITHERED WHEN MOTHER SAID WE'RE NOT TO LOOK UPON BEULAH AS A PLACE OF HIDING SHE DIDN'T STAY WITHERED LONG KATHLEEN REMARKED AND'S SAID JUST THE RIGHT THING TO DEAR OLD GILLY FOR FRED BASCOMBE IS FILLING HIS HEAD WITH FOOLISH NOTIONS HE NEEDS FATHER TO SET HIM RIGHT
