Tier food isn't too rich but her
clothes are. They are no more fit
for a vigorous child than that rich
pudding you refused her last night
They belong to her future.
"Our children were not always
fed wisely, but perhaps they surviv-
ed it all because they didn't have
too much attention, too many people
about, too much nagging about non
essentials, fussy clothes, elaborate
toys or constant stimulation"
But what can mother do in this
modern world? We can't live as
you did then" said the younger wo-
man.
you can as far as the essentials
go. Just as you choose for her sim
pie food out of all that is on the
table so you can learn to choose
simple pleasures, quiet enjoyment
and the child-companionship she so
much needs"

One of the great benefits of the
kindergarten is that it encourages
effort so that the habit of trying"
becomes fixed while the child is
young. Trying to beat ones record

Of Gay Enamel Cloth
stsssSc s.l

A cushion of colorful enamel
cloth with has-relief of realistic
looking gay flowers is warranted to
bring a real thrill on Christmas
morn to the friend who enthuses
on the subject of interior decora-
ton, and who wakes eloquent over
"a note Of color" in the scheme Of
things. Do not confuse enamel
cloth with glazed chintz or Gre
tonne or anything Of that sort. It
looks rather like colorful patent
leather and it is produced in every
lovely shade both pastel tints and
exotic cOlOrings, also black.

Washington, Dec. Is UPl-In- rApiained discrepancies in the re- ports Of the agents who shadnwed Fall Sinclair jurors have ben round hv the government, and will '-a disclosed later this week to add te charges Of secrecy in the Sinclair Burns contempt trial.
 In one case, Agent Frank J. p'Eealiy reports and reiterated on .'s witness stand, that he followed l.'raee E. Lamb, justice department .4rial, to the Congressional Coun- h. club. Lamb never went near ,. club on that occasion, govern o.#nJ attorneys said. and he will so
 -t'y when he is called.
 0'Reilly today was scheduled .-uia Tor questioning by Assistant l.. S. Attorney James OLearv.
 William J. Burns, 67-year-old de- lctlye. followed every question put by O'Leary. The other respondents, Harry r. Sinclair, and his associates, Henry Mason Day and Sheldon Clark, and ". Sherman Burns and C. L. Veitsch, followed the questions closely.
 O'Reilly told the prosecutor full details Of following Lambs road ster to the country club, at q time during the trial when, according to government information. Lamb was busy with antitrust suits at his office.
 O'Reiliy, old and trusted employe of the Burns agency, stayed at the Hotel Mayflower, where Sinclair and Day were during the trial, and he there received oral reports from agents while written reports were sent to Director C. G. Buddy at the Naynower.
 The government intends to argue that O'Reilly was called upon by Day and Buddy for questionable &C., tivities alleged by the government in connection with the jury spying. O'Reilly has testified he engaged Edward J. Kidwell. ST, father of Juror Kidwell, in conversation al the Kidwell barber shop In an out lying portion of Washington.
