and stay down after being put to
bed.
Gradually lessen the length of time
you remain in bed with her. When
you first leave her before she sleeps,
Keep on singing but gradually move
TO another part of the room until
she is again content to be left alone
Immediately upon being put to bed.
In starting the new habit, it might
be well to set the time for her nan
an hour later in the day and ar
range FOR her to be somewhat more
IN the mood of sleeping. Be sure that
she is not overfed. Have her exer-
else half hour before the schedule
time for sleep, so that she will be a
little tired and more ready for rest.
There should be no excitement of
any kind just before the sleep period.
During the sleep period, the room
must be absolutely quiet and at least
partly dark. See that there is plenty
of fresh air in the room before bed
time, so that the room will be cool
and comfortable for sleep.
If your child rebels against taking
her nap. arrange to play with her
out doors n few minutes. Keep lodg-
ing the suggestion in a happy manner
that she can play with you a little
while with dolly and then play some
more with you.
Laugh a great deal while playing
with her; approve her on how fast
she can run and then say. "All right
now We will take two more runs and
then we shall go and take a little
rest" after taking one more run,
say. "All right we have one more yet.
Here we go. That's fine! All right,
now we will take a rest and after
we rest we win play some more.
Aim to handle the talk suggestion
above in such way that she will
not object at all, but If she should
say she doesn't want to take her nap,
say, "Oh yes. we must take our nap.
And after you take little nap,
would you like for me to play with
you again?"
Repeat this method for few days
and she will have formed a habit of
going without opposition.

DOES YOUR CHILD REFUSE TO

TAKING A "DARE.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
We are a group of girls about II.
A short time ago a boy friend of ours
was dared" to refrain from talking
to a certain group of us for one
month and talk to other girls instead.
He took the dare" The month is al
most over, and opinion varies among
the girls who have been neglected.
Some claim that sincere friendship
ought TO be resumed, while others,
feeling humiliated, believe that 1t is
now our place to retaliate and treat
him as we have been treated. We
would like to have your opinion.
@. l..
1t Is certainly extremely foolish to
tritie with friendship in this way, and
your boy friend shows weakness In
allowing himself to be so influenced
by girls whose desire Is perhaps to
make trouble. The boys rudeness is
objectionable, but he may not realize
this, Why doesn't one of you explain
to him what Is II IL that he he's done
and let him know that you all expect
sincere apology before resuming
friendly relations2
