(Dr. Morris Fishbein discusses infant health, Page 18)

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON One of my young relatives was going deaf. You had to shout at] him to make him hear. He had developed a far-away listless expression, and of course was disobedient because he lived in a dim world where orders either were not heard or were misunderstood. His parents didn't notice it so much because the decline was gradual. . But seeing him only from time to time I was disturbed at the change. They asked what I thought. I took a long look and then said, “adenoids,” and that he ought to be taken to the doctor. went and the doctor found the throat-to-middle-ear tubes closed. 1 was right. Adenoids it was. His tonsils were infected, too, and “seeping,” which accounted for' his funny color and loss of appetite. .Then he seemed to get better. The congestion in his head abated and he appeared to breathe more easily. But his ears were the same.

Time to Go After Enemy

I knew that his next “rundown” spell would only be a repetition of former troubles and that when the 5-year-old was “feeling comparatively fit was the time to go after the enemy. “What would I do now?” I was again consulted. I pondered this. I knew what I would do were this little fellow my own. But although I loved him and was convinced that he needed a thorough ' cleaning out, I held back like a coward. I could not bring myself to say to those two young people, “Go ahead and get the operation over with.” I kept qualifying to let myself out, but I guess they knew what I thought and wanted. In the end they did not need my advice as I knew they wouldn't. He is much better now and can hear - perfectly. But it has set me to thinking about other young parents confronted with such problems. A doctor or specialist can only give an opinion, tell what the trouble is and recommend a cure. Sometimes he will suggest treatment, again surgery. It is up to the parents to make the final move.

Delay Takes Toll

Young people are unprepared. They don't know what to do. Even though they have faith in this good doctor, it is hard to face facts. A third person never likes the onus of resolve. Sometimes patents get

a second opinion, or a corrokoration from another physician, and this helps. But the easiest way, | decide the many, is to keep putting off until more tomorrows the mat- | ter of making up their minds. This is not getting anywhere. The | child's eyes may be getting v eaker | for need of corrective glasses, his | throat worse, or the bone troubie | serious. Nor does it help for one parent to say to another, “I won't have anything to do with it. Do whatever you like.” It isn’t fair,’ ever, to say that. Parents must stand together in these matters, and share responsi- | bility alike. First to face it, second | to make a decision, and then to divide responsibility equally, what- | . ever course is pursued. It is a grand and glorious feeling to know that | they themselves have fought the | battle and acted for their own child's

Good to Eat

OUR thousand penguin eggs are being served in London's . West End restaurants. They are supposed to be quite a delicacy. They came from South Africa where they boil them 20 minutes, then mash them in butter, with salt, pepper and wine vinegar. Of course vou can do that with a mere United States hen’'s egg. So, speaking of eggs, here is a typical French egg recipe called Oeufs sur le Plat, or a form of baked eggs that's particularly cdelicious.

* FRENCH EGGS SUR LE PLAT

2 eggs per person 1 tablespoon butter to each egg A pinch of salt

This is the method: Use flat individual ramekins for this recipe.: - Warm them first in the oven. Put the butter in them when hot _and melt it by letting it “sit” on the ~ hot ramekins. Break two eggs carefully in each dish, season the whites with a little salt (not the yolks, as it is apt to mark them and spoil their aopearance) and place the dishes on the middle shelf of a fairly hot oven - 80 that they get equal heat and cook: for three or four minutes at the

most.

Serve at once, The whites should be sufficiently set to be eaten with a fork, but quite soft and the yolks very soft. 2 = = RENCH people usually mop up with a piece of bread whatever a fork or spoon can not manage—a survival of the time when cutlery was unknown and fingers and bread were the accepted methods with food. ‘Now this may seem exceedingly simple, which, of course, it is, but what a delicious way to bake eggs. There are a number of dishes of “eggs on a plate” for instance, with the addition of a little lamb kidney cooked in butter, with tomato, chili pepper, shallot, etc, you can

same city, of the men’s pair championship, which they won last summer, will find opportunity to recall the interesting hand by

which he made a grand slam, which played a large part in: winning the championship. When the dummy was spread, Cook saw that, while making 12 was easy, 13 tricks was not at all certain. The opening lead furnished a slight clew to the distribution, and based on that he planned the play. The ace won the first trick and the three of hearts was ruffed. Next a diamond was led to the ace, and another heart played - from dummy and ruffed. Then Cook cashed the ace and queen of trumps and led a low club to dummy’s king. The king of spades was played, followed by the last spade, and both East and West were squeezed. The last two tricks were won in the South hand with the ace and the seven of

clubs. (Copyright. 1936. NEA Service. Inc.)

Ned LeFevre, leading man of

this theatrical company, is here to back her up in a strong way.

At least an. hour's relaxation a day is necessary for giving the best performance, they have found. Hence, play clothes are as essential as stage clothes—and that goes for everybody! ; Miss Brown chooses to take her outdoor exercise in cottons that are tubable, and cilottes are her dish. She wears a bright flower 'sprigged cotton of fine texture. May wine, green and purple are its splashy colors, with wine predominating in linen belt and tri-cornered scarf. The suit is two-piece. The ingenious pocketed shirt has tails that button together in the manner of a chemise. The divided skirt is without pleats or pockets so it can be ironed in a jiffy. Miss Brown keeps crystal cool in the crownless visor of grass green linen of which any nice young man is bound to approve.

| asked for letters from unmarried

men stating their reasons for remaining bachelors, Two have replied.

Dear Jane Jordan—Aside from the fact that my mother would be alone if I married and that it takes all my earnings ($100 per month) to keep my expenses up, the reason I am not married at 33 is | that I can not find any one who can hold my interest. It is hard to meet girls over 19 or 20 who have not been married. Of those 1 have dates with (I go out two or three times a week), I

they would not make good wives: others might be good cooks Lut are uninteresting to talk to. My men friends have been getting married all around me for the last 10 years and at least half of them are having affairs with other women now. Hence I don’t think I will get married. BACHELOR.

Answer—In each and every single man’s background there is a chain of related events which explains why he does not marry. The circumstances leading up to the decision not to marry are as varied as the individuals themselves, but when pressed for reasons. bachel-

ors say pretty much the same

things. Your letter represents a fairly typical viewpoint. You point to a dependent mother, a limited income, a mistrust of women, and the fact that many marriages fail Each of your reasons sounds plausible because each has a foundation in fact. Because you are partly right you are content to assume that you are whelly right. The real reason you do not marry is that you are too discouraged to try it. The cause of your discouragement lies somewhere in your childhood and I do not know what it is. I only can point to the evidence of discouragement and leave you to figure out its origin. First your mother. At 33 you are too old to have remained in the parentchild situation. An infantile pattern carried over into adult life argues that the son lacked the courage to break away from persons outside the family. Second, your limited income points to a lack of self-esteem. Your energies must be so tied up with some other problem, perhaps unconsciously, that they aren’t available for the problem of earning. Wouldn't your failure to break home ties naturally result in a lack of experience in competition? Those who find it difficult to compete find it difficult to earn. Of course your love choice has narrowed somewhat at 33 because s0 many women of your age have married, but I suspect you of unconsciously choosing girls without sufficient worth to tempt you to marry because marriage arouses the feeling of inadequacy which has retarded your progress at 33. The fact that other men are unhappy in marriage would not disturb you unless you already were discouraged. No courageous person

Swimming Held as Best Exercise for Slenderizing

BY ALICIA HART NEA Service Staff Writer Of all the exercises that make

for figure beauty, swimming takes first prize. Experts agree that a daily swim will slenderize the waistline | and hips, remove unsightly lumps from the thighs, make ankles, feet and arms look lovelier and younger; and at the same time develop the bust and muscles around the neck. Results of recent surveys are impressive enough to convince any one that a daily swim really is the answer to all correct proportion problems.

The perfect figure is one which is .well-developed—not too fat ard not too thin, of course. It should have’ soft curves instead of lumps and bumps or ridges and sharp angles. If you have trouble keeping your hips down to a measurement of which you can be proud, have some one teach you to do a proper Australian crawl. Even though you know you won’t learn to swim in one summer, do the leg and feet part of the crawl regularly and watch your hips get smaller. Hold on to the side of a boat or grasp the edge of springboard or pool and make your legs work hard. If you have a flat chest or a scrawny neck, practice the breast stroke for half an hour a day. Inhaling deeply, stretch your arms” ° through the water until they are

them forward. If you don’t live near the water, do breast siroke exercises before an open window at home. This takes longer, of course, but eventually you will get results. . Naturally, it’s not a good idea to swim too vigorously and get too tired the first few times you go into the water. Take your swimming in a fairly leisurely. manner until your body becomes accustomed to proper exercise. Then increase. the rapidity of your strokes end the length of time you stay in the water. By September you'll be buying clothes at least two : sizes smaller. You may weigh the same, but your dimensions will be less.

ARRANGE FLOWERS RIGHT, IS ADVICE

A principle laid down by ancient masters of Japanese flower arrangement that is still of fundamental importance states that flower stems should not cross. . Criss cross stems” ‘give jumbled, tangled effect. Crooked stems, however, are not undesirable. In fact, they are usually more artistic than straignt stiff stems and when placed to best advantage often make charming effects. One stem of unusual line or character may change an otherwise commonplace arrangement into one of distinction.
