If the school child comes homo to discordant household, to a meal where, instead of pleasant discuss sion of the days topics, one or both parents are picking on the child or children for real or imaginary faults the digestion of that meal Is going to be interfcrred with, and the child Is going back to school with mind inadequately prepared for the after noon's work. And then, if on his return home In the afternoon to 6 parent who has no idea of his prob- lems at the particular age in which he finds himself, again there is more bickering and perhaps injustice dealt out to members of the family, what 2 handicap this environment is to his preparation for future life.
 On the other hand picture the ad- vantage a child has, who lives in a home where there is mutual under- standing, where certain things are permitted and others are not, where he knows what to expect, and that he will be treated according to what he deserves with an impartial hand, where he will be incouraged in his work instead of being punished or ridiculed If things do not go right, and think which of these two chill dren will make the better man or woman as the case may be.

Often, if only q small portion is given at first. and additional heipings with reluctance, desire for more will be stimulated, all children tending to want what they cannot have, or what is diffi- cult to obtain.
 The child who has q poor appe- tic should not be given foods rich In fat, as butter, bacon, cream and rich milk. These foods win only further lessen the desire for food, rather than make the child fat. Also starchy foods must be given with caution, and milk should be given sparingly or stopped entirely, fruit juices. being substituted. A diet rich in green vegetables, fruit and fruit juices, with Q moderate amount of meat and other protein foods, Q small amount of fat, and not too much carbohydrate. as cereals, po- tnto. bread. buildings. etc, is stimu- lating to the appetite.

If in addition to this he Is forced to eat when he hasn't the desire. mora and more of an aver- sion to food will be acquired.

This condition hav- ing been reached, the treatment is, In the first place to take away all food between meals, and in the sec- ond place to allow the child to eat only as much as he wishes. and of the kind of food which is best for him to have. A small amount ok food should be placed in front of the child at meal time, he should be given a certain time in which to eat this, not more than IS or 20 and no attention should be paid to him during this interval.

most important the mental environ ment. is most important factor in the life of not only the adolescent and school child, but also of the pre- school child, and even the infant.
 The nervous, high strung, excit- able mother soon finds her nursing baby upset. unless she is able to readjust herself mentally and physi- cally to her surroundings. The pre-school child if he hears and sees friction going on between the par ents and other children. soon be- gins to initiate them. 4 small child or older one cannot understand inconsistency. unfairness, or par tiality in the parents at first, but soon learns that If square deal is not to be given anyway. he may gain his end perhap by deceit, ly- ing, evasion or some other means. If a child is told one minute that he may not do a certain thing and the next that he may, or If he is pun ished for certain offense one time, and not punished for 1t the next, he Is naturally going to learn to tease for what he wishes. and do what he wants on the chance of getting away with 1t. This course of conduct not only creates an unhappy home atmosphere, but is deter:mental in the building of character and self discipline In the child.

 Dr. Harold Root
Baby on Schedule Less Irritable Than Those Fed When-
 ever Urge Exerts ltself-Train Child to Proper Sleeping Habits Play Square With Your Offspring


 Dr J. Harold Root. child special ist. in an article prepared for the Democrat. dealing with the Care of Children" emphasized the fol- lowing factors in the maintenance of good health:
 The most important factors in the making of healthy. happy normal children are good habits, q proper well-balanced diet for the particular child, and the creation of pleasant environment for their development.
 Children are creatures of habit from birth on, and as they are trained to good or bad habits in in- fancy so will they develop good or bad ones in childhood, and adult life. The baby who Is allowed to nurse whenever 1t wishes develops the habit very quickly of demanding food whenever 1t wakes, whereas the one who is awakened at certain in- tervais during the day soon learns that at only those times will food be given to 1t, and looks for 1t at the set Interval. Also older chil- dren if given food regularly three times daily learn to look forward to meal-time with good appetite, and go through the rest of the day with out thought of food, while those who are given bread. milk, candy, etc, between meals come to feel the need of it very shortly, and feel grteved when 1t Is refused. So too, In personal cleanliness. care of the teeth. etc. If these things are in- sisted upon, and the child is trained by constant repetition to brush the teeth morning and night, to come to the table with clean hands, etc, eventually these habits will engrave themselves in the child's memory to be carried on for the rest of it's life.
 The avoidance of. constipation Is influenced more by the formation of the habit of emptying the bowel at a certain time each day than by all other factors combined. This habit should be started in infancy. child's life should be allowed to in- terfere with 1t.
 Too much emphasis cannot be put on training the infant or child to the proper sleeping habits. It is aito- gether too common practice to ale low the children, or in many cases infants. to stay up until the rest of family retires. the excuse being that the children will not go to sleep if put to bed earlier. They will not so to sleep earlier because they know that by making a fuss they can be taken up. How much simp- Ter 1t would have been to nip this1 habit in the bud by letting them cry 1t out for e few nights at first, than to break this long established bad habit in later childhood. The small child Is living on its nervous energy when kept up past It's normal | bed time, and is bound to show the bad results of this sooner or later
