 "Yes, indeed. thank you" I said, but regretted my decision the next minute when he added:

CCLTIV.ATING AN APPETITE
 By Alice JudSOn PeaIe

You can give child his food, you can even put it into his mouth. but you can't make him swallow it. He knows this as well as you do and if he chooses he can make the entire household dance attendance on his meals.
 He knows that usually all he has to do is to close his lips tightly and the victory is his. But even if the food is forcibly placed between his lips, he has but to spit it out in a moment or, worse still, hold it in his cheeks for hours to center on him. self the attention of everyone.
 The meal hour instead of being a time when the normal appetite is satisfied, becomes a contest of wills, a three ring circus in which the youngster finds himself in the de- lightful position of ringmaster.
 The child often is allowed to get anything he wants in return for swallowing little of his dinner. Does he wish to be sung to, to hear story. to be fed by hand? If he will only consent to partake of a few mouthfuls he can have any kind of show he likes.
 When once this sort of thing has become firmly entrenched a spartan attitude on your part is necessary. You must school yourself not to show the excessive solicitude you feel The food must be put before the child without fuss or comment Your manner must be such as to carry the assurance that you fully expect him to eat heartily. After that take no notice of him until . reasonable time has elapsed, then take his plate away. If he has eaten well he may be praised. if not. there should be no remark nor Sign Ol emotion.
 The child who has been accus- | toned to music with his meals will 1 fight the new regime with all the 1 wiles at his command. But after two or three days of self imposed star vation his normal appetite will as. scrt itself and the battle will have | been won.

YOUR HEALTH
RY DR MORRIS EISHBElN

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBElN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hygela,
 the Health Magazine
 The consideration that has been given to the human body has taken but little account of some of the newer discoveries in the field of medicine. The ultraviolet rays, sunlight, cod liver oil, the vitamins. the calories and similar words have become known to all of us because of the tremendous publicity given to them in recent discussions on health subjects.
 One is tempted to insert at this point the ancient proverb Be not the first by whom the new is tried" The progress of science is rapid and it is almost impossible for anyone to keep abreast of all its innovations. The safe path is to be assured that new methods are neccs- sary.
 New techniques for prolonging life should have been thoroughly tested in the laboratories and practices of the experienced before. any attempt is made to utilize them in the roa- tine of daily life.
 To Books for Health Facts The books to be mentioned in this reading course are merely the be- ginning of new literature on health. They have been selected to elaborate the points made in this preliminary discussion and to afford to any reader safe and stimulating guides to the care of the human body.
 The progress of preventive medi- cine and of personal hygiene is so rapid. however, that the reader can hardly keep abreast by the reading of books alone. For this reason the American Medical As- sociation issues a monthly periodi- cal called Hygeia, which includes not only original contributions by vari- ous authorities in the health field, but also editorial discussions ot health problems, reviews of new books on health, and department of Questions and Answers" in which the problems of readers are given special consideration.

 Mary's cheeks and lips were al- most devoid of color when ] nnisheo my revelation to her Of the real identity of the young man she had known q Jackson. That my litle apeech had been ridiculously gran diose I was we'll aware, but Mary's attitude toward her suddenly ac- ouired fiance was so blatantly flip nant.. and that of Prince Georges so shocked and surprised. that felt my suited announcement was the only possible means of bringing Mary to a realization of what her rash engagement really meant.
 She looked at me almost vacantly for a fieeting second after I had told her that George Jackson" was Prince George. nephew of the King Of Trees, and second in succession to tho throne. Then with conscious ness of the full meaning of my words dawning in her eyes she turned toward the young man watching her with tense anxiety and took a step toward him exactly told myself. like a bewildered child warily ap- preaching some puzzling object.
 The young prince held out his hands to her appealingly. Mary! he said breathlexsly.
 The color rushed back into her cheeks and lips and her eyes were suddenly starry. I saw only too plainly that the realization of what my announcement meant was like a drausht of heady wine or a dose of a potent drug. Whatever her reac- tions might be later just now she was intoxicated with the sudden fan tastic vision of herself as a possible future queen.

cians and scientists are not capable
 of writing about health and hygiene

cians and scientists are not capable of writing about health and hygiene in terms that people can understand, and that it is going to be necessary for fiction writers and essayists to learn enough about these scientific subjects to enable them to interpret satisfactorily for the public the com. moner facts about health.
 All the books to be recommended have been written by physicians or scientists who have developed a lit- erary technique which makes it pos. sible for them to write in language that anyone can understand.
 The dramatization of medicine and of science constitutes another field, including the great biogra- phies and autobiograpnies Of mcdi- cal men. the picturesque works nj DcKruif the story of Panama and of the medical corps in great wars The individual man may, through study of the care of his own body learn much of the way in which sci' ence protects man in the mass against the deadly plaques that have devastated humanity in the past.

Nanny Meadow Mouse.
 Danny Meadow Mouse awoke from his nap. He yawned and stretched and wondered how it was that he wasn't sleeping in his own home. Then he remembered that Nanny had refused to allow him to enter that home and had sent him away, saying that she had troubles enough without being bothered by him. What those troubles were he could mt imagine.
 "I wonder if she is feeling any better natured now" thought Dan ny. I'll run over and see."
 So Danny scampered over to his home and stopped just outside. He remembered the reception he had received before and he felt . little timid about venturing in now. While he was trying to make up his mind whether he would or not, Nanny Meadow Mouse peeped out. "Oh, it's you!" said she. Well. keep away. As told you before. have troubles enough"
 But don't understand what those troubles are," protested Dau- ny.
 Nanny looked at him very hard. She saw that he really meant what he said. So you don't know what they are." she exclaimed. Well, it's time for you to learn. You can come in for just a minute"
 So Danny came in for just min- ute. To his great surprise he found that there really wasn't room for him. Quite filling the comfort. able bed was squirming mass ot naked little Mouse babies. The, didn't even have their eyes open They had no little fur coats. Mann, allowed him just one look. Then sht pushed him out and went back te her family.
 How many are there?" squeaked Danny. from the doorway.
 Eight" replied Nanny.
 Danny would have whistled if { Mouse could whistle. You are quite right, my dear. you are quite right. he squeaked.
 Quite right about what?" asked Nanny
 Having troubles enough" replied Danny. 'I shall keep out of you way. my dear"
 "Do," squeaked Nanny.
 "1 wil'.' said Danny. And, suit ing the action to the word. he scam pered off to get something 10 est.
 Now you must admit that eig}, babies is a real family. It was tn, largest family that Nanny Meadow Mouse had ever had. Once she hat had six babies and had thought tha she had all that any mother could d. in looking after those. But now sh, had two more than that. Such | loa. of responsibility. All those babis must be fed. She must make sur, that each one had it's full share. An, now that they had no little fur coat she must make very. very sure tha they did not get chilled.

Washington Bent Losing Out
As Popular Grass for Greens

TT may sound like heresy, but never.
theleSs it Is true that the craze for
Washington bent as the ideal putt
4 ing green grass is slowing up-at
least among the greenkeepers OF
the clubs. That lengthy hot spell of
last Summer, when most of the putt
ing greens at the clubs about the Capt.
tai were burned up with brown patch
and other troubles, coupled with the
washington already has suffered this
season, may have something to do
with 1t.
At any rate, many of the green
keepers are turning their thoughts
away from the Washington strain of
creeping bent toward variety Of grass
which Is harder, and resists the brown
patch In better fashion than the bright
green grass which was discovered on
the old fourth green of the Washing
ton Golf and Country Club, seven or
eight years ago by the late DIR. C. ".
Piper, and was named by him after
the course on which 1t was found.
The tip-off comes with the hint that
when two or three Of the green's at
Washington are replanted next Fall,
ably will be planted to metropolitan
bent, q grass which has all the desir-
able putting qualities of che Washing
ton strain, but is more resistant to
brown patch and does not have the
heavy grain that Washington has.
From conversations with greenkeep-
ers we gather that there Is not the
slightest use beating around the bush,
or minimizing the fact that the climate
of Washington is a bad one for the bent
grasses, and that therefore the green
keeper who keeps his greens in good
condition during July and August de-
serves q halo Of glory. AS a matter OF
fact Washington is about the fartheSt
South that bent grass is used with any
great success as q surface for putting
greens. We mean by that farthest
South" in q temperature sense. Up in
the mountains, as at White Sulphur
Springs, or the Virginia Hot Springs,
where the nights are cool, bent grasses
will thrive. But In the hot climate Of
Washington, which is hot, 1t Is a good
greenkeeper who can keep bent grass
free OF fungus grass destroyers.
Washington bent, many Of the green
keepers have decided, is too tender and
needs too much care and nursing to
stand the rigorous climate Of this sector
Of the country. So many Of them are
turning their thoughts away from the
muCII aOVSKuocu washington pcnL W
tougher grasses, such as the Metro
politan and Columbia bentS. which ap-
pear to stand the hot weather in bet
ter shape.
Stewart Whaley, greenkeeper at the
Washington Golf and Country Club. has
made SOME interesting experiments with
the Metropolitan and the Washington
and virtually has decided that the
former stands the warm nights of
Washington better than the Washing
ton bent itself.
All golfers know that If the putting
greens and tees Of a golf course are
well kept little roughness as to fair
way can be put up with with a mini

mum of grumbling. But II the putting
green's are bad there is certain to be
plenty Of low-voiced admonitions about
the care of the surface over which the
ball. Is rolled to the hole. We have no
hesitancy In saying that in our judy
ment the green's at Indian Spring with
stood the hot weather Of last Summer
better than those at any other course
about Washington. Others agreed with
our judgment. Most of the green's at
Indian Spring are planted to either
metropolitan or Columbia bent When
the course was built there was not
enough real Washington bent to lay
them down in that strain.
It would appear, therefore, that while
the greens which are planted to Wash
ington bent fade away under the hot
sun and the hotter nights when fungus
steals its sneaking way just before the
dawn. the Metropolitan and Columbia
strains stand It better. The latter grass
does not make as good q putting sur
face as Metropolitan, in our opinion,
for 1t lies on top of the ground and does
not form a mat thick enough to hold a
pitched ball.
