And Baby has mo other Ian
Euage but a cry" 1t is his way Of
protesting at hunger. discomfort
or pain, and until he can eX-
change movement of limbs, and
the cry, for language which is
but a symbol of these things, we
have to try to interpret that. cry.
And what job that is.
When you are faithfully trying
to live by rule with a wee baby,
1t surely gives you a helpless, sunk
feeling, when after doing all the
things which should be done, he
stills howls and howls.
You cock one ear and listen.
You try to discern just WHAT
type of cry it is that he is max
Ing. He's been fed. He's clean
and comfortable. His bed is fresh
and sweet, and to all intents and
purposes he should happily drift
off to sleep. But still he cries.
You get panicky.
But now is the time to observe
your baby carefully.
You've weakened. You've taken
him from his bed and are holding
him. Does he still cry, or does
he stop? Well. you admit hesi-
family, he usually stops.
If. on the other hand, the cries
continue, he is probably in pain.
But the usual idea back of the
whole thing is that crying VIII
bring attention and keep mother
close at hand. Not that the baby
has a conscious thought of this
kind, but he seems to possess an
uncanny faculty for making the
trick work. The solution, and I'll
admit it is a hard one, is to teach,
Baby that crying when he needs
nothing whatever will get him
NOTHING.
Older Ch / d dren soon learn
whether tears will bring de-
sired privilege or not. The two
year old who screams and yowls
until he gets the woolly bear
that brother is playing with, has
learned that crying will win him
his desired object, That child
will continue until he stages
tantrums to gain his end.
I saw q mother working hard
to break her tiny daughter Of
crying for everything she wanted.
The mother worked hard at it, but
sweetly and patiently, and sue
ceeded. The little girl cried for
everything, even though she was
capable of asking for it properly.
When the cries started, the
mother quickly thrust another toy
in front of the child, or directed
her attention to something out
side, as: See who's coming up
the walk"' Then the instant the
tears were dried, she quickly gave
the child what she had cried for,
saying: Now, my little girl is

happy and smiley, so she may
have the dolly"
That mother taught her child
that smiles GOT RESULTS, but
that bowling DID NOT.
We are so largely responsible
for habitual crying in children
when, with little effort such as
! have described, we can save
ourselves and the children many
an unhappy hour.

l am coming to you for advice.
There is a fellow l met three
weeks ago. He is not very nice
looking, but as you know, looks
don't count nowadays. He is
polite and generous. All l can
say is, l like him, but | do not
love him. And he loves Inc
dearly.
Here is the question: He wants
me to marry him. My father
and mother would not object, but
I think / am too young. l am
only sixteen years old.
would not he married for at
least year. DO YOU think If I
took his engagement ring | would
learn to like him enough to marry
him? He wants to give me the
ring on my birthday. If | take
it, what do you think would he
a nice way of thanking him?
ENGAGED.
Become engaged after an ac-
quaintance of three weeks! Isn't
that speeding things up bit too
much?
II were you, my dear, I
would decide to be just friends
for a year and find out whether
you really do care for each
other.
A year from now you will
know better whether you can
learn to love your new friend.
But Learning to love Is at best, a
risk. Why not postpone the en-
gagement until you are sure you
are in love. There is not the
least hurry, you know, about
getting married. You have years
before you in which to chose
wisely.
