CHILDREN |
EAR Mrs. Smith: You ask me in your letter about putting the children to bed these oppressive nights and expecting them to sleep. You prefer, as ybu say, not to interfere with their regular routine, because when fall comes, it will be almost impaqssible to get them back to their schedule. I wish I knew more about your house, and how cool the bedrooms are. It may be that the children are as comfortable in their beds as they would be downstairs. But while it is true to some houses, particularly those with thick walls, most bedrooms in summer are Zoot the last places to cool off. If Timmy and the baby have been accustomed toa" oclock bedtime, what with daylight saving and the sun still high and hot, it does seem too bad to have them stewing up there, a sacrifice to a plan, just because it IS a plan, don’t you agree? - Surely the sky wouldn’t fall if their bedtime were moved back an hour to 8 or even half-past 8. And they will make up the lost hours in the morning.
S, you're right. It is a relief to get them into bed and have some peace and rest when yqur husband is home. I am with you there. All day long you've been on your feet, trying to keep them fed, cool and happy. I know exactly what it means. But do you really get much rest with the baby crying and Timmy constantly calling because he can’t sleep? Don’t let them stay up till all hours, of course. Their beds can be moved so they get plenty of air. Beds close to a wall are apt to be airless and hot. Try moving them to the. middle of the room, or even right close to the window. But nights in summer are uncertain. In a split second, almost, a chill wind may rise, and that is not so geod. A cooling bath (tepid) at bedtime in summer is a treat. Besides, it rests jangled nerves and usually summons the sandman. One more idea, Mrs. Smith. Which of the rooms are the hottest in your house? Maybe just for the next month or so, until the August nights get cool, you can do .a bit of mixing ‘round and put your young boarders on the breezier side. We all have to muddle through the best we can ’'in hot weather. If we can’t live up to all the charts, then we just can’t; and conscience will have to take a wee bit of a holiday. Yours sincerely,
JANE JORDAN
EAR JANE JORDAN—You helped me once before, I was in love with a married man and his wife did not want to give him a divorce. I was willing to live with him without marriage, but you said not to, but to wait until he got a divorce. Well, he got a divorce and we were married four years ago. Now we have had a very serious quarrel and have separated. He has gone to his mother’s in Michigan. I am about crazy; so I wrote him a letter and he answered saying that he still loves me and wants me to come to his mother’s and have a talk. I love him so much that I don't even want to live without him, but do you advise me to go to him or have him come here? Sometimes I feel that we would get along better if we lived out of this city as my people cause a great deal of trouble, but I have never been in Michigan or even out of this city except on visits. I really think we could make a go of it if I was away from my people and some of my friends. This is my first marriage and he is the only man I ever loved. I meant to live and grow old with him as I believe deeply in the marriage vows we took. BETTY.
AncneroBy all means go to your husband and take up your life with him apart from your people. If your family cause you to quarrel _Avith your husband it must be that you have not broken your child- “ ish dependence upon parents as yet. Any husband resents this in his wife, and with good reason. The only trouble about joining him in Michigan is that you may get in the same situation where his mother is concerned, exchanging the domination of your family for the domination of his. When you come to an agreement, insist upon living alone with your
husband. » : 2 x = 2 zn = EAR JANE JORDAN—I am a senior in high school and have never lacked for friends among both girls and boys. I went steady with a fellow for more than a year and several months ago we broke up. We are still both in the same crowd and of course see a lot of each other. We even have occasional dates together which is hard because I love him and he looks on me as a friend. The crowd gets together often but unless I have a date with him, which is seldom, I don’t have a date with anyone. The extra boys don’t date me. R I have plenty of pep, can tap and play the piano, can dance and am not hard to look at. I can carry on a conversation or listen to what others say. I prefer being with Jim but since we broke up I don’t show any preference. How can I get these other boys to date me? . It’s been this way for months. UNDATED.
Answer—The trouble with going steady is that the the other boys are apt to regard you as someone else’s property, and when you break up it takes them a long while to believe that you aren't still interested and just about to “maké up” again. As a matter of fact, you aren’t really interested in these other boys even though you try to make it appear that you are. What they feel is your continued devotion to your former “steady,” and your effort to show no preference doesn’t fool them much. It would be a good idea if you went with some other crowd occasionally, or at least until it dawns upon the boys that you are -accepting other dates and that your early affair is really over.

Start Early to Teach Your
By ALICIA HART
OUR daughter may not be a beautiful child but it's nobody’s fault but your own if she isn’t ‘an attractive one. There are few real beauties in the world, big or little, but it does lie within the power of every woman to be attractive and to - have attractive children. And that’s enough. Whether one is 6 or 60, being attractive means being meticulously clean from head to foot. Teach your daughter the not too subtle difference between getting dirty and being dirty. Let her enjoy rolling in the mud ‘and climbing “trees, but teach her to enjoy, too, a good warm bath to remove the mud and grime. Then, too, being attractive means having shiny, beautiful hair that comes from nightly ‘brushing and excellent health habits; perfect posture; clean nails and trimmed cuticle; comfortable, properly shod feet; simple clothes with good taste written all over them, regardless of what they cost; last, but importantly, a pleasant disposition and a ready smile, “When your child is very little, -it’s up to you to brush her hair, take care of her nails and so on. At an earlier age than you may think, however, she can be taught to do simple grooming routines regularly herself. » ” ” O prove this, let’s také, for example, little Beryl Magee,

one of ‘the most popular child 3 nibdels in the glamorous modeling gum business. Although not quite 7, Beryl brushes her own hair every night. Furthermore, she brushes it in such a way that her arm muscles get preity fine exercise | while she’s about it. Holding the child-size brush in her right hand, Beryl brushes the hair on the right side of her head upward and outward 25 times. Changing the brush to left hand, she brushes upward and outward on left side. For the back hair, she holds the brush in both hands and brushes downward as well as up. The last step makes for good shoulder carriage. The little model is an expert at brushing her own teeth. Furthermore, she doesn’t forget to rub a little cream into her hands after she has washed them before going to bed. She likes to bathe and doesn’t have to be urged any more to scrub her knees with a small hand brush. Her mother washes Beryl’s hair, but the child enjoys
that, too. : Don’t think for one minute because she brushes her hair and likes her bath and shampoos that Beryl Magee is a , prissy child. She isn’t. Being taught something about the fundamentals of true attractiveness needn’t make any little girl seem unnat--ural or too old for her years. Perfect grooming never detracts from any personality, regardless of age.

|THE QUESTION BOX
Q—How may. grass stains be re-
| moved frem unwashable materials?.
A—Sponge the spot with a solu-
| tion of denatured alcohol and water
mixed in equal proportions, using
| the pad method. To prevent a ring, | brush the alcohol irregularly into “| the fabric and dry dry. quickly.
Q—What is the ust usual tip to sleeping and parlor car porters for an overnight or day train trip? A—Twenty-five cents for each passenger, unless extra service is required when a larger tip should be given.
Q—Should clothes be rinsed. in
| hot or cold water?
A—The first rinse should be warm
: or hot and: the temparature of ci
ceeding rinses is not important. Q—What is a a_good oil finish for
‘ | natural wood?
A—The following equipment should be used: Soft rags without lint, a mixture of two-thirds boiled
and a polishing cloth such as linen, grain or cement bag or a woolen cloth. After the wood has been thoroughly sanded, repaired, and
| stained, if desired, it is dusted and
oiled. Apply the oil mixture hot or cold on plain surfaces, but use is cold on carved or grooved parts; hot oil penetrates wood more quickly and brings out a richer: color. Care should be taken when heating oil to put in it a dbuble boiler, because it is inflammable. Apply the oil generously with a soft cloth or brush, and allow it to stand long enough to soak in the wood, but not to get gummy. This may take 5 to 20 minutes. Next, wipe off all excess oil with a clean cloth, being sure to remove it from crevices. Rub each part from 10 to 20 minutes with the polishing cloth, bearing down on the folded cloth with the whole hand for more friction. Rubbing brings out the lustre. From four to five to twelve coats of oil are needed to give a soft, satiny effect, the time between coats depending on temperature conditions. Each coat must thoroughly soak into the wood before another is applied. Repeat the process until no dull spots remain. To test, hold the hand on the wood a few minutes to see if any oil is raised by the heat.
Q—Should a child of 6 be taught to cut his food with a knife? A—Yes. A small child may be [taught the use of a table knife as soon as he has learned to use a
