Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Up to certain age parents must be
responsible for their children's safety;
their appearance and habits. Begin
ming with years the child is on his
own and his training up to that time
should be toward that end. One cannot
throw a 5-year-old into the street
and expect him TO take care Of himself
if heretofore he has not been taught
how to do this: neither can one eX-
pect neat appearance or prompt at
tention at school If the mother has
always up to this time shouldered all
these burdens for him. Training be-
gins at birth The results are appar-
ent at S years.
There are children who grow up and
assume the duties of home who do
not know what responsibility or self
reliance mean. They have depended
first on their mothers. then on their
teachers and later on their employers
to pull them out of their troubles. The
child who must be dressed far beyond
the time when he should be capable
of dressing himself: the child whose
mother assumes the duties of an alarm
clock and warns him internationally

OF our own successes however small
they may appear to others. Take this
into account. The small child is gcing
to be thrilled by his ability to lace his
own shoes, even If these laces are
strung with ridiculous irregularity from
the wrong eyes. and unknot at each
step. To go after him and tie the
shoes properly is to discourage his ef-
forts to do better and more lasting
job. A child can't learn to be a re-
sponsible and self-reliant person with
out practice and practice is always
clumsy and awkward. There is no
reason to think that he will become
habited to untidiness because he is
satisfied with less than a perfect per-
Torrance. He'll try to do better If he
is praised for what he has done and
encouraged to try again. Whether it

ent has to learn to keep his hands off

ODD EXTRAS IN
FURNITURE CAN
BRIGHTEN HOME
CHEEKY Unusual Bits May
Have Some Effect
as New Hat

NEW YORK, March 21.-The
~ call to spring decoration soon
will sound, and novel new pieces of
furniture offer themselves as an
answer to it.
Acquiring new lamp, table,
chair, rug, picture of any colorful,
decorative home accessory is quite
like putting on new hat when one
is tired of an old costume.
The new home accessory, like the
hat, has a remarkable psychological
effect upon the home maker, rs well
as upon other members of the
family. 1t may spur mother onto
making chintz slip-coverS for some
of the chairs that are not all they
once were, or encourage sister to
make few gay pillows to liven up
a corner that is cozily dark in win
ter but needs a vivid note for spring.
Try Some Unusual Object
There are no bounds to what one
may purchase as the extra offering
to the spirit of spring. But the ex-
ira is more likely to be a success if
it is some unusual object-not just
a chair, davenport or other large
piece that must fit in with every
thing else before it is convincingly
all right in the room.
On the market today are some
vastly interesting, amusing and
highly decorative odd accessories
for the living room that carry no re-
sponsibility with them, for they
look cheerily all right with every
thing.
Why not try a gaudy waste basket
by the side of the Staid desk? Or
a gay magazine box that can be
moved to this chair or that or out
onto the veranda, always carrying
cheer with it? If a larger piece
can be afforded, one ct the repro
auctions of old italian furniture
may be just the thing.
Beauty From Europe

MODERN woman's environment
1V1 has caught up with her per-

have her entire home done in a
modernistic style in keeping with
her own spirit.
Take, specifically, the boudoir. In
the charming modern manner, that
very personal room can be decorat-

hound sickness of Milady herself.
Low, comfortable chairs are a

compact with just enough knee
space underneath for her silken
form.
Soft CoIors and Fabrics

walls, coverlets, chair upholster-

FURNITURE ana furnishings, as a
matter of fact, have Jagged in this
matter of conforming to the new

of her silken self and with the easy
directness and simplicity of her
manner.

THREE TONES OF BLUE
IN NEW SPORTS SUIT

In a cardigan sports suit of the
new rayon and wool faille crepe,
three tones of blue are skillfully as
sembled. A fine wool and rayon jer-
sey of black, very infinitely flecked
with white, is made with a skirt that
is boX-pleated in clusters and an
overblouse, in which the top is cut
in a deep-pointed yoke and the long
sleeves are made of white crepe.
Sections of gray crepe are insert
ed with the black, forming triple
points from the neck to the bottom
of the blouse, which is hip-length
and is belted with a narrow strip of
patent leather.

its spirit, experience, needs.
Gone are the massive, heavily
carved chests of drawers-the hope
chests of another world. Milady no

Gus Statched muslin petticoatS. Her
slinky indies fit into one-tenth the
drawer space. Everything caters to
the slenderized silhouette rather
than the stiff crinoline of other
year.
Mouldings and baseboards are
omitted in these new rooms-to
give more upbroken height. Door
jams have Set-backs, done in de-
grade tones, to eliminate all shock.
Ceilings, floors, all woodwork and
furnishings are integral parts in
color and design Of a whole plan.
Silvered Wood Used
Pale green is the tone Of one
delectable boudoir. One lovely
modernistic portrait hangs on the
wall. Silvered wood, as soft and
lustrous looking as cleaning satin,
fashions the day-bed, chairs, dress
ing table and long mirror.
Frosted glass lamps are hidden
like wall decorations above the bed
and mirror. Upholstering is april
cot quilted satin and rugs soft
hand-tufted gray.
With more color but the same
serene peace and beauty one room,
done by the famous French de-
signers Sue at Mare, uses macas-
sar- ebony for its furniture, brocad-
ed silver for its walls, quilted rose
taffeta for its coverlet and four
pillows and silvertone lambskin for
its rug and foot-cushion.
Low, Easy Chairs Popular
Shown today is the graceful day
bed, with its one high end sweeping
in single happy curve down to
the base, across and up again to a
low footboard. The low, easy chair
uses the same cleaning, restful
wood, in the same graceful lines.
The tall mirror has Silvered edges
that slide into the tone Of the wall
and give the illusion of the mirrors
being part of the wall
Shown also is the dressing table
from cream orchid and black

maple dressing table lifts it's cover
for a good sized mirror, its sides
are stable compartments and a
drawer pulls out in front large
enough to hold many necessities.
The chair in front Of it is uphol-

NEW SWEATERS FOR
CHILD ATTRACTIVE

Children's sweaters arc to be seen
in new models that have attractive
designs for the borders and in the
collars and cuffs. In those for
smaller children these designs are
taken from nursery rhymes and
have different characters portrayed
in various color schemes. In the
tWo-year-old sizes, the sweaters
have just single figure worked out
by hand in soft angora on the front.
Special attention has been paid to
the neck treatments, some being
finished in student fashion, some
with "V's," others with square necks
with a back collar, and others
with the regulation turtle neck.
Some are made to fasten at the
side with q row Of pearl buttons,
and others slip on over the head.

THREE-CORNER SCARF
GOOD FOR EVENINGS

On chilly spring evenings at any
Of the resorts, or even in town, one
will see fashionable women wearing
the new three cornered scarf that is
made of sequins in coral, red, black,
lavender or green. A mesh made of
fine linen thread which matches the
sequins is cleverly woven in each
sequin having four little holes
through which the thread is run. For
older women the design is worked
out in black net and also in white
china beads and black silk thread
embroidery.
