Child Safety Is Paid tor In Sacrifice

Time Spent at Home With Youngsters Held Worth While.

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON It is always hard for a mother

to do her shopping when she has |

voung children at home and no one to leave them with. In such a case, either she has to trust her errands to some one else or use the telephone or mail, and do the best she can until the toddlers are old enough to go along. Perhaps her husband can help her once in a while, according to his hours of work, or she can make the most of Saturday hours when he is at home and the shops are still open for business. This is a problem that thousands of young mothers must work out to their own satisfaction. Naturally. the best answer is to have some dependable person stay with the children during her absence. There is, however, another problem that faces the parents of young children. This is to spend an enjoyable evening together away from home once in so often.

Alternative Procedures

Again, the answer is the responsible substitute, who can reach the mother and father by telephone if anything goes wrong, and who will be extremely careful of safety, during their absence. When this is impossible, there is only one legitimate alternative, and that is for them to take turns with their movies or parties, as children under their teens never should be left alone in any house during an evening, nor children under 10 during the -day, even for a few minutes If there are some incredulous parents who doubt the assertion that it is the thoughtless habit of certain parents to go off togéther of an evening, leaving one child, or more children, alone in bed, then I am extremely sorry to have to enlighten them At the moment I can cite several cases of such practice. Not parents in poor circumstances necessarily, but those who are well able to obviate such risks in every way.

Safety Is Worth Sacrifice

It is really deliberate gambling with fate, although the idea of harm is the farthest thing in the world from their thoughts.

Watch Diet, ‘Women Past 40 Advised

Expert Says Slenderness At That Age Is More Than Necessity.

By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX

Slenderness in the middle aged woman is more than a necessity. It is a form of health insurance. After 40 too many calories are like too many worries—they tear a woman down. When she has reached 40, a woman has developed fully and cdoes not need calories to build her up. Light eating makes for light spirits past 40. That of course does not mean starvation. It means intelligent selection of foods that provide not only necessary minerals, vitamins and calories, but also enough enjoyment to make life pleasant. The main thing is that the organism must not be overtaxed and dietary fads be avoided. She must be fed, but not too much. She must satisfy her normal appetite but avoid indulgence.

Too Little Exercise

The tendency with most people after 40 is to do less exercising than they have been used to doing and at the same time to eat just as much as formerly. Diet to people past 40 is just as necessary to a comfortable and pleasant life as a steady income. Largely avoid such foods as rich pastries, excessive sweets, cereals, white bread, potatoes, heavy cream, rich sauces, butter in excess, alcohol, hors d'oeuvres such as salted nuts, crackers, popcorn, potato chips. Foods that are too salty and overspiced do not belong in the diet for the woman who believes that life begins at 40. Here is a sample menu which will help you follow an intelligent and pleasant diet if you have reached the two-score line. For breakfast—orange juice, a slice of Melba toast, one-half square of butter, black coffee. If you are hungry around 10, take a small glass of fruit or vegetable juice.

Light Luncheon

For luncheon at one o'clock—a | consomme, a .bowl of mixed greens | with French dressing, rve toast, one- | half square butter, a slice of melon | with lime or some other fresh fruit, | followed by tea or demi-tasse. | For dinner at seven try clam juice | cocktail, one lamb chop broiled. string beans, grilled tomatoes, slice | of Melba toast, one-half square butter, a fresh green salad, baked | apple, demi-tasse. | When you retire around 10, a | glass of buttermilk or skim milk is | a good thing to take. This diet may | seem a little strict but follow it for awhile and you will learn that life i not only begins at 40 but begins to
