About once a day you forget to dc
something you started out to do. For
example, you forget to mail letter on
your way to work. or you forget to get
pound of coffee on the way back
There must be some reason for such
annoying "forgettings."
Your mind operates on a t%in-center
mechanism. One center has to do with
your outside world; the other with your
inside world, commonly called your
self or personality.
Ordinarily. these two centers of at
tention function normally-that is,
the center which has to do with your
outside world is dominant. The self
center is a sort of hazy background
just prominent enough in its STRINGS
to keep you aware of who, what and
where you are, with perhaps some adj
ditional awareness of the ordinary pro-
prieties of civilized existence.
Now and then you drift over to the
self-center so completely that you mo-
mentarily lose all awareness Of your
outside world. The self-center momen-
tarily plays the leading role.
The vast majority of these self-cen-
tered states may be charged up to those

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED

The habit of Shaping small babies
when they modest the home furnishings
is probably one CT thc commoneSt of
parental punishmcnts. The slapping
may not be done in a mean way, the
parent may not even be angry. She
honestly thinks that this is a legitimate
way to teach her child not to touch
what she knows must not be touched.
Suppose baby pulls book from the
family table and tears it to pieces.
Naturally the mother is annoyed and
angry. Also she wants to prevent this
happening again. So she slaps the
babys hands. smart and singing blow.
Baby cries pitifully end rubs his red,
little hand and mother feels like brute
and says: 1T hurt me mere than it
did him"
But two days later baby finds another
book and tears it to bits.
1.-The little wretch" means his mother
HE knew he was doing wrong fer he
looked at me with absolute deviltry in
his eyes. I just had to spank him
hard"
Why didn't the slapping do the work?
We know there is perfectly good rule
Of psychology (Thcrndyke) which says,
Attach annoyance to a response and
1t is weakened" Surely slapping is an
annoyance to the child, as is all pain
But in the above case the annoyance
was not attached to the touching of the
object, but to the mother, who is en-
tirely outside of the situation.
Had the pages of the book cut baby's
finger as he tore them apart, he would
have. howled and dropped the sheets
and in the future locked with mistrust
at all books. Had the book toppled on
him as he pulled it off and given him
a bang on the head, he would not need
to be told that he must not pull books
from the table. He would probably cry
at the sight CT one. Many objects have
the power within themselves of teaching
the child the dangers of handling them
Hot stoves, radiators, knives and scis-
sors are all self-puniShers. But we are
him to handle these objects in order to
discover their natural penalties. We
have to keep them out of his way.
Nest of the things which We tell
children they must not touch carry no
penalties. They are harmless so far as
the child is concerned. So instead of
preventing the child from repeating the
forbidden activity, slapping merely pre-
vents him from doing it while we are
around. He runs like deer with the
forbidden treasure in his hand. He
waits until our back is turned to shoot
like an arrow straight for the prohibited
spot. He is not afraid of doing what
he has been slapped for doing. He is
afraid only of his mother who does the
slapping. Our leaf1et on Obedience
and Punishment" suggests some more
appropriate punishments than slapping,
and a self addressed, stamped envelope
enclosed with any readers request Will
bring it to you.
Shaping as a punishment is never
successful. 1t is just temporary check.
and that check is removed as soon as
the sIapper is out of sight. We have
to use other tactics In training children.

At least, we have a card table that
will always look like new, for the
framework is of wrought iron and the
top is of a composition which is i'm

are so annoying on the top of the table.
This is the kind of table we like to
have about the house for other uses
than card-playing. The typewriter and
the electric sewing machine both need
solid foundations while in operation
and it would be difficult to find any
thing better than this for the purpose.

heard him not once but manv times
During the past several months at
such times as he could spare from his
duties as Representative of the first
pennsylvania district, in his library
here and at Philadelphia, Beck has gone
through his numerous addresses. From
them he has selected II for publication
Half OF the II addresses either are
arguments before the Supreme Court or
are concerned with legal aspects of i'm
portant matters.
Representative Beck has not wholly
forgotten the man who knows little of
law. There are several of those adj
dresses-one in particular-which the
layman can read with genuine pleasure
Here Beck, who by the way, is a
member Of the English bar and an
honorary bencher of Gray's Inn, de-
scribes in graphic and lively fashion
the birth and growth of the inns of
court and the Christmas revels held at
Gray's Inn in 1594-5.
Beck, who has been a student of
Shakespeare all his life, suggests in that
address that the poet and playwright
whose Comedy of Errors" was produced
then and possibly written for it, had
been student at Gray's Inn during the
so-called missing years." 1585-1592.

also gives the woman with a dry COM

well knows that the wrong cleansing
methods will only make her skin drier
than ever-dry even to the point where

These whose skin is average find 1t a
good plan to wash it twice day-in
the morning and again at bedtime.
When the skin is dry it Is sometimes
wise to omit the washing with water in
the morning, using a cleansing oil
instead. Some even find 1t necessary to
use only a cleansing cream at night,
but as it is very difficult to keep the

Squares and Color Schemes
By MARY MARSHALL.

The little dress shown in the sketch
shows an arrangement of squares made
from contrasting material and applied
by a coarse but even over-and-over
stitch around the edge. The dress was
made of tan cotton, the ob.ong vest at
the front of cream color, and the
squares were of yellow, orange and
green. The squares should measure
eocut two inches each when finished
with an allowance of a quarter inch on
each side to turn under.
You can develop other color schemes
On blue dress you might arrange diff
ferent shades of rose or one square of
darker blue, one of lighter blue and
che Of violet. On green a combination
placed.
The SQUARES are fastened down with
black thread, coarsely but regularly
sewcd in over-and-over stitch.
