TASK OF SHOPPER
Forethought Necessary in Select
ing Toys for Riddles.
Articles That Lead to Constructive
Play Urged by Primary
School Teacher.

THE nice art of toy selection, In
1 anticipation of the Christmas
season, recently was discussed by a
primary teacher Of the Indianapolis
Normal school before a group of
parents and teachers.
The leading thought Of the lectures
was the need Of choosing playthings
that will lead the child to dramatic
or constructive play of it's own inven-
tiOn, and conversely, the avoidance Of
playthings that are perfect or total,
in the sense that they speak to the
childs admiration only, and suggest
fort on its own part.
The toy shopper, as his task was
treated by the teacher, has more to
do than to collect at random and
take home in triumph a truck load Of
baubles.
''The thought used to be-" she said,
that a child's play ought to be or
dered with view to its preparation
for it's adult life. Girls, Of old, were
taught to sew, to make fine stitches,
such as they could put to practical
use WLcu t1iCy S1cW up. 4>OW We 1CCA
that the eye strain and the nervous
focus required by such a task are un-
desirable. And the tendency Is to
make play satisfying to the child's
wants in it's child life-to teach it to
make itself at home and happy in the
here and now-and to trust to that
training to prepare it to care for it.
self equally well in the later stages
of It's experience"
Blocks, tools, lumber, papers and
pencils and crayons, cloth and the raw
materials Of every art and craft are
the ideal stuff for the ideal play as 1t
is discerned in the light of the later
by the speaker. She illustrated point
after point by actual toys and play
materials.
Dolls that will come up smiling
after a head-fOremost fall to the side
walk from the upper fiat are to be
preferred, for several reasons. to the
kind that crack at fall Of the tenn
perature, the teacher believes, in
common with many fond fathers. The
doctrine that play is the work of
childhood, the vocation of little people
from which they will turn, little
later, to other vocations, no more i'm
portant in their day than the play
course, and gave to it's summing up q
dignity and consequence that was not
lost on the listeners.

and the Gifts.
'atar taken home.

TN SETTLEMENTS where the holi-
- days IRE affected by the customs of
the Netherlands it is not at Christmas
time, but on Saint Nicholas Day
Dec. 6-that the children have their
jolliest holiday. No stockings are
hung, but little shoes are set outside
each door for goodies and for gifts
The most important gift is the image
Of the gooI Saint Nick himself It is
generally hung to the door knob.
It is no plaster model or stuffed
doll affair-this Saint Nicholas-but
a very large cookie dough representa-
ton. sweet brown molasses mixture
Wooden moulds used to stamp out
these special and glorif1ed ginger
bread men are used but once a year,
and the bakers take great pride in
making them as elaborate and real
istlc as possible. Rows of hazel nuts
often button up the great coat, and
sometimes a border of trimming is
set round the coat with raisins.
The Saint Nicks are eaten, but gen.
orally not until the very last There
are other Holland cookies quite as
necessary for the gift shoe of a we'll
treated baby. Letters and lace cook
les are the most important. Letters
might be described as a sort of rich
pastry tubing filed with the richest
possible fruit and nut mixture, which
nearly always, in the good old days,
was favored with q generous cash Of
brandy. This tubing is shaped into
the form of capital letters, and every
child expects to find at least the ini-
tial of hts given name in the shoe.
More fortunate children get their en-
tire set of initials, and pampered dar-
lings get their whole names.
The lace cookies seem to serve as
a substitute for candy in the regular
and standard Dutch baby's Saint
Nicholas shoe. They are really not
cookies at all, but rather nut but
terscotch pattie made very thin and
transparent. This transparency is
the thing that gives them their name
lace cookie.
