At certain ages of the children, they keep quarreling over practically everything: their toys, the use of the computer, and so forth and so on. The boys especially are very fond of these little quarrels and Moms oftentimes lose their patience over the noise and the bedlam ensuing from the shouts the kids throw at each other.

It somehow makes you wonder though why they insist on fighting with one another even if you tell them that they have no reason to have these conflicts, since there are many toys in the house, and they can just adjust to one another in the use of the toys. One boy can play with the computer, while the other boy can play with the wooden trains in the meantime the computer is not available for him.

Sometimes growing kids maybe just want to insist on what each one likes to do and they find some kind of pleasure contesting the desires of one another, as part of their methods to get the attention of the mother.

Good if Dad is around during these quarrels, he can always blow the whistle and instruct everyone to move over to the area where the Wooden toy trains are, because he will give the next instructions on how to assemble the train's railway tracks after finishing the assembly of the cars to the locomotive engine yesterday.

Mom does not have that kind of "power" over the quarreling kids because she does not know a thing about the wooden train set. She is practically helpless at pacifying quickly the spats of the kids the way Dad does it with the wooden trains.

Dad has a way of keeping the boys hushed and quiet after he blows the whistle and gathers them around the railroad tracks for assembling. His style of keeping them attentive includes assigning each boy a task to assemble a portion of the tracks of the wooden train toys . He makes it clear to the boy that the job he has to do must be done quickly as the train will not be able to run if he does not finish the job assigned to him, otherwise the train runs the risk of being attacked by the Indians now rushing on their horses towards the railroad tracks.

This Indian attack was cited by Dad in his earlier story for the boys while they were assembling the train's passenger compartments, a method he use to hold the kids' rapt attention to keep them quiet and attentive.

Dad remembered his boyhood when his own Dad before held him and his brothers then, spellbound with the tales of the dangerous times in the American West due to the Indians' fondness of ambushing the trains then for the food and the liquor they could get from the train's stockrooms back then. The Indian warriors then developed a liking for the liquor imported from the grapevines of Europe by the new European settlers in the American West.
