Teach Child Thrift, hut Reasonably ■ BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON " Thou shalt teach your child thrift. Since extravagance has become our national sin, it is morfe important than ever, from an economic as well as an economical standpoint, that children be taught thrift. Now thrift is almost invariably misinterpreted. It does not mean saving—at least not in the terms of hoarding. It means the intelligent handling of money. Money-spending is a real science. And as we begin to teach the child all other thirigs at, an early age. why not the manipulation of money? The idea that '■hould never be planted in his mind is the “more where that came from” idea. The feeling of limit should be stressed. Now if you make a child put every cent he gets into his bank to put into the big bank later on to draw interest, you might as well be stuffing in stones and leaves, as far as the educational value to him is concerned. He knows that money will buy, but he knows not what or how much it will buy. Hand a young fellow who has never had any money education, his bills paid by his parents, and a vague and cheerful idea that there is no limit to its buying power—hand him a thousand dollars. I give him a month. ik How Limit Works w But hand a like sum to a young man who has had money education, and instantly conscious of limit, he will probably save the biggest part of it. An allowance is the A, B, C of money education. Give a child of six (school age is young enough to begin) say a dime or a quarter a week. No matter what wealth may be in the family, give him very, very little. Out*of this make him pay his Sunday school money, put a little sum in his bank, buy his pencils, or ruler, or whatever necessity he decides h? must have. Teach him that the money is his very own, but that come first. If there is any left over then he may indulge in the luxury of a soda or an ice cream cone or a bit of candy. And don’t buy his luxuries for him, and don’t give him another cent until allowance day. Learns Self-Denial Httwlll learn to walk past a candy store or balloon man or a movie the big thing. And he will learn with money in his pocket. That’s what the pinch means if he has spent his money too quickly or too foolishly. That pinch is the big thing in the world for him. Let huff feel it. As he gets older trust him with more money and more responsibility. I Let him pay for more things for I hihiSeif He will learn the great lesson of doing without this in order Up get that. r It is very important.

Flowers

BY IIEDDA HOYT (United Press Fashion Editor) With the coming of summer, flowers have taken possession of the fashion world., They need not be real to be fashionable these days since real flowers, with the exception of orchids and violets, are seldom worn whereas everyone wears artificial flowers of some sort. During the early spring large realistic chrysanthemum corsages were the center of attraction. At present, the corsage is smartest when it looks thoroughly artificial. Thus we find the flowered chiffon frock matched by a flowered chiffon flower of huge dimension. The petals are made by cutting the chiffon in narrow strips and joining them at the .center. Plain colored frocks usually have flowers of selfmaterial or harmonizing ombre effects. For Sports Wear For the sports frock we have felt, crocheted and leather flowers. Bouquets of vars-colored crocheted flowers are smart on shoulders of striped sweaters as each flower represents a shade in the sweater. Felt flowers in tiny bouquets representing spring posies are smart upon the sports coat. Leather flowers usually match — the leather hat and shoes. A .Among the realistic corsage the Fmost popular flowers are white or purple violets. One also sees crushed roses and tiny bunches of cornflowers or field flowers. For the bathing ensemble we suggest the rubberized flowers which can be worn on the shoulder of the suit or beach coat. Flowers should not be worn on the bathing cap this year as the smartest cap one can wear is the simple rubber swimming cap with or without a chin strap. A piece of satin or a bandana can be worn around this if one wishes. Seen in Homes Artificial flowers have established a stronghold even in the home. What can be more artistic than the little jewel Trees or jade trees as they are sometimes called? These usually come in pairs, the pots being cloisenne and the flowers being made of semi-preejous stones such as amethyst, jade, coral, turquoise, carnelian, crystal, etc. These trees Jast forever and one can always find a place for them upon a mantel, table or desk. When mounted and made into lamps they are like little jewel gardens; glowing bits of transparent jewels which add a gay note l to any living room.

Take Self Too Seriously? View Should Be Avoided BY MARTHA LEE Are you taking yourself too seriously? , It is a bad habit and if indulged in at much length will make your pathway through life a whole lot harder than you probably deserve. It’s worse than taking yourself too lightly, for taking yourself too seriously will spoil your perspective upon everything that you're in contact with. The wife and mother obsessed this way will stick too closely to her job. She’ll give such extreme and personal attention to every move of those of her household, that she’ll interfere with their initiative and make herself old before her time. A business man so obsessed will hesitate to divide his authority or delegate tasks that others could do as well and will consequently burden

himself cruelly. Os course, we’re important in our little circles, but the world will probably be going on a hundred years from now whether we’re here or not. Slow up the pace if you’ve a heavy sense of being burdened and indispensable. Most of it is in your own thought, anyway. Wonders at Sister-in-Law ‘Dear Martha Lee: I wish I could be one of those persons who don’t care whether school keens or not. Mv sister-in-law is that way and it .lust seems as if life is one grand sweet song for her. Her husband and children do the things for her that I would not dream of even asking mine to do. ~ , . , Sometimes X get discouraged and think "what is the use?” No. she is going to take a vacation and leave her two children with our mother-in-law. I wouldn’t dream of asking mv mother-in-law to do such a thing for me. vet she doesn t think any more of me for my consideration. Sometimes things don't seem fair. MRS. M. M. L. If you admire the way circumstances and people react to your sister’s-in-law treatment of them, why don’t you imitate her? I should judge that your family does not do the things for you that you long for them to, because you simply don’t give them the chance. It’s a good plan to depend a little upon ydur children. Boys especially love to feel that mother needs their assistance. You may not fully realize this, but begin to give them a chance to be unselfish. Daughter Resents Care Dear Martha Lee: I have a daughter 15 years old. alsc a son, 9, and a stepson. 14. Now Miss Lee, I let my girl go out with boys and girls about three nights a week, but she thinks I treat her badly because I won't let her stay out after 10. The boys go out freely and I have tried to explain to her why I make the difference, but she won’t see it and says she will not stand it after she is 18. Am X wrong in th Is ? UST ANOTHER MQTH er. You are quite right. Your daughter is too young to stay out late at night, and I think, considering her age, that you are very generous with her. Naturally, it is hard for her to see this, but you must let your more matured judgment guide the situation. If, after she is of age, she elects to stay out late and often, that will not be your fault. But you are responsible now. Be gentle with her and keep her confidence if you can. But be firm. By the way, a son 9 years old surely should not be allowed very late hours, either. Boys need care, too, you know.

Hov7 Will He Act? Dear Martha Lee: I am a girl who Is considered attractive. I know a fellow that I like very much and with whom I would like to have dates, but Miss Lee, it is well known that he is interested only in girls that he can "pet" with too freely. Now I hestiate to give him dates for I fear he will not treat me with respect. I believe he thinks I am like the rest of the girls he has been with—caring for wild parties and so on. I am not ola-fashioned but I wouldn't want to be treated bv him in a wrong way. As X like him though, what shall I do? BROWN EYES. Aren’t you condemning this fellow rather unjustly? How do you know he would -act to you as you think he has acted toward other girls? If they cared for “wild” parties that you say you do not care for, perhaps they invited the disrespectful attitude he assumed. As you like him, why not give him a chance to prove he appreciates a girl with good standards?

omplished musician and linguist. Miss Owen is not hopeful that it will be possible soon for large numbers of women to secure recognition in the Federal service with the same salary schedules as men. Meanwhile, with women receiving lower salaries for equal work, men resent their presence as lowering the wage schedule, she finds. “But it can be accomplished," says Miss Owen. “I think it will take a long time. Some day, though, women are going to be on a basis of equality with men in work and in pay, and people will fcJrget there was ever a discrimination between them.” v
