ed to II Until July, Mrs.
Rhodes Announces.

The Spring and Summer program for
Fairgrounds, marked by the reopening
of 10 additional spaces yesterday. was
announced by Mrs Susie Rhodes d.
rector of Fairgrounds in the District.
These 10 Fairgrounds, 6 for white
and for co.ored pupils. make a
total OF Il that will be kept open under
the limited appropriation until July.
when others will be opened at various
schools.
! Two Fairgrounds, one at the Cook
! School Seventeenth and Euclid streets.
and the other at the Cochran School,
Twenty-eighth and NJ streets. were in
operation during January and Feb
ruary. So many children make use
Of them that it was decided to keep
them open until next July.
Additions to List.
The additional Fairgrounds reopened
are as follows: White: Benning on
Anacostia road between Benning and
Foot streets: the Bowen. at Third and
X streets southwest: the Eaton. at
Thirty fourth and Lowell streets; the
Hayes. at Fifth and X streets north

avenue: the Cook. P street between
North Capitol and First streets; the
Giddings. Third and G streets south

sary TO close all but those at the Cook

Mrs. Rhodes managed to carry 40 school
Fairgrounds on the Summer vacation
program III addition to the 80 regularly
IN use.
IntcrSchool Athletics a Success.
The Municipal Playground Depart
nent is inaugurating with considerable
success program of interschool ath-
IeticS in dozen schools under the di-
rectlon of Miss Maude Parker. head of
girls activities. and r. S. Tennyson,
head of BOYS activities.
At the Chevy Chase School last year
this new feature worked out so success
fully that it was decided to continue
IL IN as many schools as practicable.
The purpose is 10 stimulate interest in
larger number Of pupils by organizing
base ball and basket ball leagues in
the different grade schools
The teams however. are being con-
fined TO the pupils Of the fifth to eighth
grades. inclusive, making eight classes
IN each school whose members have
been enrolled in some form of active
outdoor sport.
At the Park View School. for instance.
IA boy base ball and basket ball teams
have been organized and Ia schlag
teams for girls. These teams play class
matches for the school championship.
In this way. a nucleus of well trained
athletes will be formed from students
who enter the high schools with eyes
on membership in the big league"
teams.

for goodness sake. let him have the pie,
I can't bear to hear him cry!"
We heard of one boy who tantalizsd
q kindly mother by beating his head
on the wall when he wanted to wear
down resistance. He did not cry; he
lust stood against a wall and beat his
head methodically as if he enjoyed 1t.
One day after his mother had begged
and implored him to stop ii she decided
on another tactic, Going up to him,
she said as if resigned to it. Well. If
you like to do this SO well. sonny. I'll
help you" And so she took his head
In her hands and beat it on the wall
Just as he had been doing
Shocked at this conduct, the boy
pulled away The next day when he
started his head beating his mother
repeated her treatment. After three
trials he found 1t expedient TO stop.
Leave the room when the child filings
himself on the floor in a screaming
rage. Tell him you'll come back when
ne is over it. Or take him from the
room and assure him when he has
stopped crying he can come back.
Don't talk to him about his tantrum
when he does come back, but welcome
him to the family circle as if nothing
had happened.

Men Who Pay
Heed to Odd Ritual

We usually concede that of the two
sexes the men are more reasonable and
logical and less apt to be carried away
by prejudice. Yet in matters of food
isn't it true that men are more I'M
reasonable, less logical and likely to be
more prejudiced than women? If
man does take his food seriously and
is inclined to be a gourmet, you may
be sure that he feels that he knows
OH very much more about the matter
than his mother and his wife and his
aunt and grandmother all put together
eff he is little fussy about coffee
he probably feels that he could give
any one of them pointers on the gentle
art of making coffee. And as he views
1t. coffee making, like other branches
Of crockery, always is an art and never
science. He is not interested in
precise measurements, exact tempera-
method the use of which he cannot
possibly explain.
One man--very sensible and logi-
cal In other matters-inSiStS that to
make really good tea 1t must be
measured out in the hollow of the hand
He likes to have tea made on the table
with the leaves measured out from
brass caddy in the palm Of his wife's
hand The reason-well, remarkable
Irishwcman he knew as a boy. who
made the best tea In the world. told
him that it should be made that way.
And of course you don't go on to ask
him just what the palm measuring
does to the tea.
There are men who like to mix salads
and here again their rules are not the
cold accurate rules of the cooking school
but bunch of sentimentalism and
ritual The bowl must be Of certain
shape--and to begin with it must be
rubbed lightly with garlic. Onion will
not do nor may the garlic be used in
any other way. The lettuce leaves must
be picked II possible while the dew
is still on then-kept in a cool place
but not on ice--or possibly on ice but
not washed until just before using.
The spoon and fork must be OF wood,
or perhaps of bone The salt and pep
per must be added according to a
definite ritual and oil and vinegar
added with ceremonial precision. But
usually not with precision as to meas.
urement but precision as to the way OF
holding the spoon or fitting the bottle
which to the woman looking on cam
not make grain Of difference.
