Dinner Is Served"

Many folks nowadays live in such
small quarters that anything like din
ner bell or a maid sent to the drawing
room to say, Dinner is served" would
be quite superfluous. BY the time din
ner has been put on the table the fact
can no longer be kept a secret in the
tWo-room- nd-kitchenette apartment
where there is but one table The little
SlX-room cottage, too, seldom has any
doors between living room and dining
room and preparations for dinner cannot
be kept secret. So the dinner bell
against which authorities on good man
ners used to rail seems to have grown
more and more of a rarity. Even the
boarding houses seem to be getting rid
OF them, and the custom is simply to
open the dining room" doors at a given
hour for the various meals of the day.

Parents can help children in becom-
ing interested in subjects. There are
many ways of doing it. The approach
! must be through some channel of pres
ent liking Let us imagine, for ex-
ample, that boy dislikes mathematics.
Perhaps either the father or mother
does not like the subject, either. 1t is
no help to say: of course, Johnny
finds arithmetic hard. He inherits this
from me. 1 never liked it, either. Then
Johnny will excuse himself by this same
reasoning and will decide he cannot do
any better than he does, anyway.
Instead of giving the child such a
ready excuse, and making his mathe-
maticS abhorred, try working with and
not against his success. The lad may
be fond of boats. Here is an immedi-
ately avenue to work through. If he
would like to be a boat builder de-
signer or ships master, he has to know
measurements, computations, etc, and
he will be furthering his own desires,
helping some plan of his own by gain
ing all the knowledge he can about
boats through mathematics. Mechan-
ical work is based on mathematics. In
