Wool Ski Sets,
Pajama Costumes

THE three-piece pajama costume
consists of full pajama trousers,
sleeveless blouse and jacket or coat.
You can buy these sets at very reason
able prices nowadays. A practical choice
Is one made Of black and red silk jer-
sey-with black trousers with a red ap-
plique at the side. black blouse bound
with red, which may be worn over
blouse or tuck-in fashion, and fairly
long Jacket Of red trimmed with black
When your room Is warm you may wear
trousers and blouse without the jacket,
which incidentally makes very con-
venient house jacket to wear over a
black dress when you need little ex-
ira warmth.
Ski sets are for girls anywhere from
6 or s to 16. They are made with long
trousers. warm, snug jackets and usual
ly a hat to match. Sometimes they are
made OF waterproof corduroy with fan
mel lining and sometimes Of heavy fan
mel without a lining The upper piece
may be in the form Of jacket or it
may slip on over the head with a short
opening at the front, provided with a
slide fastening. Some OF the new ski
costumes are made with trousers and
upper portion in one, but they are not
so practical as the two-piece sort, with
the separate jacket, which may be worn
on many ocasions when the trousers are
not needed.

Canary Has Many Needs

CANARY lovers can tell you any
number Of things about the food
for their pets. And all authorities on
the care of Gagged birds will assure YOU
that food is most important in produc-
ing their health and happiness.
Perhaps there are three things of
utmost Importance in the Gagged birds
life-food cnre of the cage and loca-
ton A Gagged bird should never be
hung in draught. He should be
guarded from sudden cold or sudden
heat, from the direct rays of a burn
ing sun and from the dampness of
fog or rain.
His cage should be kept immaculate
ly clean.
And then his food. He should be
allowed plenty of seed. NOWADAYS it
Is sold mixed in boxes, so that the bird
owner is saved the trouble and respon-
sibility of mixing it. 1t should be fresh
and Of good quality, and should con-
tain canary seed Indian millet, Turk
iSh nav seed and rape. But if you buy
good quality of boxed seed, you will
get the right mixture
Every day your bird should have
something green. All kinds of salad
greens are good. Chickweed and plan
tain from the garden may be given.
They should never be given If they are
growing where there are any poison
GUS weeds, as birds are very suscepti-
Bile to poison tainted greens. Water
cress Is also good for the bird. Stale,
wilted greens should be removed from
his cage, and each morning, and after
his bath, the fresh green should be
hung
Every week you can give your bird
treat of hard-boiled egg yolk, we'll
sprinkled with cayenne pepper. The
cayenne Is especially helpful in moult-
ing season, and If you can hang a lit
tie cayenne pepper pod in his cage, so

taking care to avoid the necessity Of
rolling out the second time, as this is
likely to make the dough very tough.
A honey filling is used with this dough
and is made as follows:
Honey Filling one cupful OF
honey to the boiling point, remove from
the stove and add as much rye bread
crumbs as it will moisten while it Is
hot. Add two ounces Of candied orange
peel and enough powdered aniseed to

oied when he sings familiar songs
whose melody and words he knows
we'll
None is troubled when he whistles,
some Sufferers or stammerers solilo-
quize (talk to themselves or when
alone) and some read aloud when alone
without difficulty.
Any sufferer can easily learn to
speak without the usual impeachment
by breaking his speech into syllables
and accompanying each sound he ut
ters with voluntary movement Of
any kind, such as tapping foot, beat
ing time with hand, or breathing or
even just working one ankle or the
toes Of one foot in regular way.
Sufferers or stammerers can al
most invariably be cured of their i'm
pediment by course OF personally
supervised instruction under a compe-
tent music master, or by a course Of
personally supervised exercises under
teacher Of physical education-not q
mere trainer.
In most large cities the public
school authorities provide special
classes, in day school or night school,
for sufferers, and those who attend
these classes and faithfully follow the
instruction are certain of obtaining
permanent benefit.
Even the daily practice of simple
vocal and articulation exercises at
home is sufficient to correct stutter-
ing in mild cases. Such exercises
are best adapted to the individual case,
oy the physician or the physical edu-
cation teacher, but I am glad to send
an outline Of some exercises of this
kind to readers who tell me they

Any one inclined to stutter should
sing great deal when alone or with
only sympathetic relatives or friends.
Sing only real songs with the right
words. Another good practice is TO

the best poems, striving to do 1t well,
avoiding any sing-song effect, infect
ing the voice to suit the spirit Of the
piece, putting all the expression you
can into 1t.
Not only Sufferers but everybody
should endeavor to modulate the voice
in all conversation.

To write one-act plays?

are likely to be small. The returns in
terms of self-satisfaction of your un-

dividends.
One outstanding instinct in human
nature Is this: Living things must

wait until you are . genius before you

urges, you have gotten OF on the
wrong foot. What does it matter what
the critics say? Go in for something
constructive, regardless. Anyhow, you
will fnd that your critics are usually

New Year to Emphasize
Simple, Smart Clothes
Without Chance of Anything Grotesque, 1892
Will Probably Bring Lovely Clothes.

I 932-a year that is bound to stand
out in the history of politics and
economics-a year that will doubt
l. less be spoken of in time to come
as the beginning of a new era
And incidentally year that is just as
sure to be significant in the realm of
fashions
For decade and more after the war
fashions moved slowly. Progressive in
other matters, women were amazingly
conservative when it came to adopting
new fashions. Within 18 months all
this has changed. The tempo has be-
come more rapid and Dame Fashion is
again the tickle creature that she was
in pre-War days
So let's approach the new year in
fachions VIII h an open mind and a WILL
lngnc5S to try new things. After all a
woman ceases to live in the fullest sense
of the word when she ceases to adapt
So be ready if fashion demands it to
arrange your hair in a new way, to
wear your hat at new angle and to
adjust your figure to a new silhouette.
Possibly no very radical changes will be
apparent within the IL months to come,
but there will be changes Of subtler
sort that will all have definite effect
on the future trend of fashions.

THERE is one thing Of which we may
be reasonably sure nowadays. FASH
ions will not be grotesque or unreason-
able. One hundred years ago in the
famous 1880 decade things were differ

following fashions often meant going to
absurd extremes. That was partly be-
cause fashions were still looked upon as

characteristic Of the shy. sensitive type
OF child, rather than the child with
aggressive traits. But the intelligence
quotient as measured by the Stanford
Binet scale shows that the brightest
children are as likely t. develop this
speech difnculty as the dullest.
Twice as many children begin to
stutter after entering school as do be-
fore going to school.
We can't draw any invidfous con-
clusion from that, but I am of the
opinion, based on many instances in
which my advice has been O sought,
that naturally left-handed children
who are compelled to train the right
hand after they enter school are more
likely to stutter than they are II per-
mitted to use the left hand for writing
and other fine work.

at regular intervals. To keep them we'll
