Mental Preparedness.

Children trained from the very
start to self-expression enter school
with invaluable mental preparedness
for the work to be done there. They
have q poise that keeps them from
being difident In class. They are not
afraid to ask questions" declares q
prominent educator. "They know how
to tell what II In their mind. In asso-
ciatng with other children they get
more Joy from It because they know
how to make themselves understood.
Older people find them more charm
ing and interesting.
Effective training toward self-ex-
preston In the young child means that
characteristic Of life. and there Is no
training more effective than telling him
stories and teaching him how to tell
them.
Asking about a child's doings will
encourage him to tell you about them.
For instance. when your little boy
comes home from a walk get him to
tell you all that he has seen while
out. When he comes In from play
get him to tell you all about the fun
he has been having.
always make him feel your vital
interest in his thoughts and actions"
