Your Home and
You
BY HELEN KENDALL.
The Beguiling Bath.

While many little children love
water and have the time of their
lives in their daily splash in the tub,
other youngsters dread a bath ana
will go to any lengths to avoid 1t. l
have seen a child scream at the mere
mention of being bathed and keep UP
the screaming all the time the bath
was in progress, despite water toys,
fancy soap shapes or even another
child to play with.
A young mother who had this trou-
BILE with her baby daughter told me
that she gradually overcame the an
tipathy to the bathtub by painting
the walls OF the bathroom with gaily
colored scenes from Mother Goose"
rhymes to the child while bathing
her At the head of the tub was Old
Mother Goose herself. sketched by
the mother from the baby's own pic
ture book and reproduced i'll the same
colors. The youngster was told that
Mother Goose had come to take a
bath with her, and so had Simple
simon and the Pieman at the other
end of the tub.
Another thing that helped" the
mother told me, was the little bath
chair her father made for her. We
found she was actually afraid to get
down into the water. so we took one
of the white enamel seats or benches
that hang from the sides of the tub
and fitted the rounding back of an
old highchair to ii. enameling that
white also. She could sit in her lit
tie chair and paddle her feet in the
water and was unafraid. Gradually
we filled the tub little higher each
day until the water reached her body
o,I, al
her chair.
Eventually we got the water up to
her chest, and when she was used to
that we took away the chair and she
was all right
If you can find out what particular
detail of a situation makes a child
afraid, that item can be slowly
changed until the fear is overcome.
1t takes patient, watchful expert
menting, but it often relieves a little
mind from a nameless. unspoken hor-
ror that might never be forgotten.

Orange Compete.


Orange compete is my favorite dish
After my fourth l begin to forget
that I'm a human being. After my
sixth l can feel myself drifting into
blissfully comatose state-with
only strength enough left to call for
seventh.
Orange compete. at it's best. may be
obtained in any small Turkish or
Armenian restaurant. where the cof-
fee is good and the dishes aren't too
extensively clean. When made at
home. it is never quite the same-I
don't know why. This. however is
the best working substitute that l
am able to concoct:
Take as many oranges as your sys-
TEN is capable of absorbing and peel
them. removing all of the thin, white
inside skin. and all of the film-Ike
tissue that divides an orange into
sections. l forget to mention that
the oranges should be large. luscious
juicy and free of seeds. Place the
oranges in individual serving dishes
and pour over them this sauce, while
hot:
For about six oranges you will
need one middlesized jar of orange
marmalade and one small can of
Hawaiian pineapple. Put the marina
cubes-and the pineapple juice into
a double boiler and cook briskly I'M
til the LIQUID begins to thicken. Then
pour it over the uncooked oranges
and allow them, each in its indi-
vidual dish. to stand in the ice box
| until dessert time. Just before serv-
| ing. sprinkle with a few pine nuts
| or sailed almonds. Pine nuts are
! best.

Deep Red Accessory to Costumes
BY ANNE RITTENHOUsE.

PARIS.-Each designer has a whack
at the curiously colored metal cloths
which have been invented to carry
out the clothes suggested to France
by the national advertisement of her
picturesque colonial possessions.
The weavers have produced fabrics
that we thought had been forgotten
by those who work with the looms.
There is one metal fabric called
"Triomphante." which is meaningly
named. There are others that look
as II they had been beaten into shape
In old Damascus.
furnished laces. especially those
with a silver tinge. are widely used
for drapery, and there are blouses
attached to skirts which suggest the
kind of fabrics one expects to find
in parts of the untrodden Asiatic con-
tinent. There are ruff1es of such lace
on sleeves between the elbow and
wrist. or copper laces are edged with
furnished braid. and given rotundity
to the lower sleeve.
Considering the popularity Of these
dark and FURNISHED metal tones. 1t
is to be expected that the dressmak-
ers should find dull. rich red fitting
accessory to costumes. They use it
In small and large pieces. and Worth
finds it agreeable to line a white cape
with it, the kind that will be worn
out of the city for the Indian summer
season. 1t Is shown in the sketch.
The cape itself is in white cloth
with a shoulder embroidery OF In
dian red silk to match the lining
There are red revers and a necklace
of plated black crepe done after the
prevailing fashion. which is taken
from the Persian rolls And these
Persian padded rolls continue to ap-
pear as belts.
Much of the red which is used this
season is lacquered so that it shines
In the dark. Many of the new fab
RIGS do that. There is little that Is
rough and uneven in the threads of
the materials. except velours de laine,
which is commonly used for suits and
wraps.
Doucet makes one of the most in
tere3tlng costumes for young girls,
OF deep terra Gotta velours de laine
with woven gray figure on it, and
decorates it with faded red velvet
and shining buttons. The wrap is
an interesting kind of long coat with
a square panel. loose in the back, and
II is OF the same fabric as the frock.
raul Poiret uses this wide square
panel also on enveloping coats.

VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE.
Explained by Miss Stewart of En-
ployment Service.

ployment Service.
MISS MARY STEWART. director
AS1 of the Junior division of the
United States employment serv-
ice. gave an exceptionally clear and
concise explanation of what is meant
by vocational guidance in her speech
before the National Vocational Guild
ance Association a few weeks ago.
This Is problem which is interest
ing girls as we'll as boys in increas-
ing numbers. Miss Stewart says:
Vocational guidance is rather a
method than a process of education,
applicable from primer to placement.
and on through. job experience until
supervision becomes unnecessary. 1t
Is new technique in an old field. in
1ecting the life-career motive into the
whole educational process Voca-
tional guidance and placement can
not be separated. IN fact, in the
placement office vocational guidance
becomes more definite than at any
other point in the educational process.
conveyance for all influences touch
ing the child as a social unit.
The purpose of an employment
Office for juniors is guidance into and
through JOB from the legal working
age until such time as the young
worker finds himself mature in judg-
ment and skill.
THE first and fundamental obliga-
ton of a federal service is to be of
value to the whole movement con-
cerned with junior employment. 1t
should serve as clearing house for
the whole field of vocational guidance
and placement. Then it should itself
conduct experiments through Coop
GRAFTON with local Offices in sections
where occupational and educational
conditions are particularly favorable
to the work. And it should aim to
establish and maintain a limited
number of experiment stations of it's
own in various parts of the country
which present different types of edu-
cational and industrial problems. One
Of the main functions Of such sta
tons should be to serve as training
stations for personnel for the field at
large.
Vocational guidance for juniors
as applied in a placement office at
tacks the problem of unemployment
at it's roots. 1t aims, on the one
hand, to know scientifically the &C.
cupational world in which the indi-
vidual must actually function on the
other hand, the educational work
which fits-or fails to fit-him for it.
and. finally. to help the individual
make the adjustment from the one
to the other"
