Teach Child Task Before Giving Order

Parents Should Encourage Him to Find Right Way to Do It.

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

“Look here, Dick. See how you streaked the windows of the car. You must have used a dirty cloth.” “I guess I did, Dad. But all the rags looked alike to me.” “Don’t you know that when you go at a cleaning job, you use one rag for wiping, another to polish the paint, and a very clean one to shine the windows?” “I know it now, I guess, but I never thought about it before,” said Dick. At this point Dick’s mother calls the boy inside. “What did you do to the shades, son? They rolled nicely before, but since you hung them they are so loose they won't 20 up or down, There's no spring to them.” Then father plains - that the newly-cleaned

12 Americans | Presented at British Court

Ry United Press LONDON, May 6.—Twelve Amer-

‘|ican debutantes and matrons were

presented to the King and Queen of England last night at the first court of their reign. Led by Mrs. Homer S. Cummings, wife of the Attorney General, the Americans and 700 others made their bows. Mrs. Cummings broke precedent, She wore brilliant corcnation red instead of the usual white and pastel shades: The previous courts, over which the Dowager Queen Mary presided, were restricted to less bright ‘colors. & King George and ‘Queen Elizabeth sat on thrones upholstered in gold and scarlet damask. The King wore the red and gold uniform of a field | marshal with the blue ribbon of the | Order of the Garter. The Queen was in a gown of deep gold brocade with a train of gold lame and colored sequins. 1 Mrs. Cummings and the other Americans were introduced by Mrs, Robert Bingham, wife of the Amer= ican Ambassador. All those presented were required to pass the inspection of court attaches. It only took a few seconds

—— queen was won in the dummy, and South, after studying the hand, decided to discard a diamond, although he had four trumps in the dummy with which to ruff. Declarer next led a low trump. East ducked and South won with the king. The ace of spades was cashed and a low spade trumped in dummy.

Declarer returned to his own hand with the ace of diamonds and led another spade, to be ruffed in dummy. The last trump was led and East could take no other trick than the ace of trumps, for all of South's spades were good.

If declarer had discarded a spade on the ace of hearts, he would have been beaten, , for h e then would have needed to ruff three cards in dummy, the diamond and two spades; and he would have been { able to lead trumps toward his own hand only once, thus losing ‘two | trump tricks.

It is a habit common to all of us parents, to give a child orders without first explaining the way to do it, or better still, showing him him. We take so much for granted.
