Homemaking—
Parents Determine War-Time Morale for Their Children
WHAT SHALL WE DO with our children in war-time? This is the question that countless parents are asking. “How can we impress them with the importance of safety measures without creating fear? “Will the constant threat of danger, idle rumors and gossip of all kinds leave scars for life, even if a real blitz never comes near them?”
The answer is simpler than it - seems, according to Anna W. M.| Wolf in the February Harper's Bazaar. “The morale of children in war-time,” she says, “as in any other time of stress and disaster, is largely determined by the morale of their parents.

Now Even Old St. Valentine Has ‘Joined Up’
Wars come and wars go, but young love goes on forever. So, knowing that it’s quite likely that the lad of your heart is a soldier, sailor or marine, St. Valentine has fixed up some special cards this year. There are cards addressed to doughboy darlings, like that illustrated at the left and others especially designed to send to sailor sweethearts, like the one at the right.
