Experienced mothers’ say don’t attempt it" be-

The Invitations:
INVITATIONS CAN safely be issued to at least a third more than you expect for the party, for there are invariably some children with colds and temperatures when the day arrives. Concentrate on one age group. Four to 6 in the afternoon seems to be the most popular time for all concerned, particularly if the refreshments are planned to take the place of supper for the children who just naturally couldnt go home to cereal after birthday cake and ice cream. The menu might include jelly and cream cheese sandwiches, milk, ice cream and cake. n

Feeds 'em First
ONE MOTHER WHO found that little children become more civilized after eating invited the little guests for 3:30, had them at the table eating ice cream and birthday cake and apple juice shortly after 4, which put them right in the mood to. sit, if not quietly, and watch home movies of Peter Rabbit and Mickey Mouse. LY Thoughtful mothers who appreciate that very young guests know little restraint when faced with a basket of candy each, wait until after the main course to fill the favors. A nursery filled with toys for all, exéept the mothers, who should keep out if it kills them, may be all the entertainment these little individuals require. Xa S%
Acting Out Songs
IF YOU have the room and the piano you may discover a great following if you play some of the songs that suggest acting. Like “Here We Go 'Round the Mulberry Bush” or “London Bridge.” Peanut hunts, jelly bean hunts— with a prize to the one who finds the most—are exciting to watch, but the competitive spirit of the game is pretty tough on the little fellas who don’t win, All thé versions of Pin the Tail on the Donkey are just as much fun, and it can be done without declaring the winnah. An hour or an hour and a half at, most is plenty to allot to the program that precedes.the climax—that beautiful cake with three lighted candles on it and a plate of ice cream. You may have to substitute a big bowl of fruit jello or sherbet, but if you do you'd better explain why!

JANE JORDAN
DEAR JANE JORDAN-I want to ask advice about how to gain more love from my mother, You see, my mother and father were divorced and I lov’ my father dearly. Every time mel; tioned him my mother woula say something mean about him. Now he is dead. He has been dead only one month. Ever since his death, mother has yelled at me for every little thing I do. I love my mother, but if she doesn't quit yelling: at me I'll have nervous breakdown. When I tell her I do something, she always tells me I don’t. If I tell her again that I did, she says I am sassing her. I am 14 years old and I hope you will understand what I am trying to tell you and that you can help me by telling me what to do. I'll appreciate it very much. J.C. D. = w » Answer—I think it would be wise for you not to talk about your father any more. Of course you feel grieved and upset by his death, but turn to some friend, someone outside the family, for consolation. It is obvious that your devotion to your father has made your mother feel jealous. Very likely she had her own reasons for divorcing your father, reasons which you do not understand, but it wasn't easy for her and she is haunted by a miserable feeling of guilt. Your father’s death has emphasized that guilt
_
for the time being. You, of course, add to that feeling of guilt for in your heart of hearts you. blame your mother for the divorce. She feels your unspoken criticism and it makes her cross with you, Be patients with your mother. I know that she is the one who should be patient with -you, but she is going’ through ‘a strain at present and you can help the situation by keeping calm and unruffled. Don’t talk about anything but the most unimportant’ things for a while. Show her some affection for she needs it. Spend more time with your girl friends and do not hang around your mother while she is adjusting herself. Even though she did not love your father, his death is a shock to her, When you are older perhaps you will understand the situation better than you do now, but for the present, try not to think about adult problems. You have ‘plenty to keep you busy at school; so lead your own life and not your mother’s, Things will quiet down after a bit, particularly if you are able to meet little upsets at home with a calm attitude. JANE JORDAN,
