A very simple method Of starting
children in the use Of their allowances
is that employed by social service
agencies In dealing with foreign or
illiterate families. 1t consists Of sew
eral envelopes - preferably stout
manila for durability-one for each
kind Of expenditure. Two would be
enough for child at first, one marked
"To spend" and one ITO save for
something nice"
Many parents give their children a
few pennies each week when they are
as young as four or FIVE years old.
When a child has learned to make
change, to add or subtract amounts,
and can be sent to the store, he is old
enough to have some money Of his
own to handle The envelope system
is help until he can write his sac

1t is sometimes a problem to cur
tain short windows in small living
room successfully, especially if there
are bookcases or radiators under any
of the windows. One fixture or built
in piece more or less determines the
length of all the curtains in the room.
The problem has been pleasingly met
in this living room photographed by
the bureau of home economics of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. Both glass curtains and side
draperies are carried to the lower edge
of the window casing, but the over
draperies are slightly looped back to
make the effect less severe. The in
ner edge of these draperies is kept as
straight as possible, paralleling the
vertical lines of the window.
AS the ceiling of the room is low
and the windows short, no valance
should be used with these curtains.

Rice Waffies-Sift one and one-half

salt and four teaspoonfuls of baking

of cupful of cold boiled rice. Add
the well beaten egg yolk mixed with
one and one-half cupfuls of milk and
two tablespoonfuls of shortening or
oil. Fold in the stiffly beaten egg

is left, how to save for definite pur-
chases greatly desired for himself or
for gifts, and ultimately how to man
age larger sums which include per-
sonal money and money for definite
uses such as school," "car fare" and
lunches" A child who is old enough
to ride on street cars alone is ready
for a notebook system Of accounts.
AS the number and kind of expenses
increase. the bureau Of home eco
Monies does not consider the envelope
system satisfactory. 1t necessitates
keeping more money on hand than is
desirable. 1t provides no permanent
classified record on which future esti-
mates can be made. 1t is confusing
because In order to make change
money is borrowed from one envelope
for another.
By the time boy or girl is In the
last grammar grade or ready for high
school, a clothing allowance may be
added and its use taught. This is a
good time to introduce a checkbook.

drawn on the parent up to the amount
of the allowance and all transactions
made as businesslike as possible.

from time to time, but after a little
experience the student trained in this
way can be trusted away from home

Vertical lines are made to predomi-
nate to give height to the room, not
only in the curtains themselves, but
also through the up-and-down edges
of the books, the straight candlestick,
and even the sections of the radiator
under the second window.
The walls of the room are of plain
creamy tan paper, so it is suitable to
introduce some color and pattern in
the curtains. nayon damask was Sc
lected for the overdraperies, and sheer
marquisette for the glass curtains.
The latter are made with casing for
the rod and a one-ineh heading. Full
ness in the outer curtains is laid in
pinch pleats and attached to the rod
by means of hooks on the under side.
One advantage Of making the glass
curtains as long as the other pair,
reaching below the window sill, is that
they do not blow out so readily when
the window is open.

Comfortable Shoes
Are Important

Think first Of how your shoes feel
rather than how they look is one Of
the late advices of health specialists.
To permit free action of the feet, shoes
should be loose and flexible. Tight
or short shoes press the toes together
so that the muscles and bones lose
their strength, and the toes become
deformed.
Two rules to remember are: Toe
straight ahead, using the large toe as
q lever; never toe out and keep the
weight on the outer border of the
foot.
Exercise often helps foot troubles.
These exercises should be taken in
the bare feet two or three times a
day. First pull the toes in and under
as II picking up something-repeat
thirty or forty times; pick up marbles
or pencils with the toes; walk pigeon
toed; walk slowly on the outer bor-
ders Of the feet with toes turned in.

Sandman Story for the Children

By cHERIE NICHOLAS

The fairies went to different parts
of the woods and some went to the
park in the cities, and whispered to
the snow which was falling fast:
Nov you know, old snow, that you
can be very, very cold if you want
to be.
You know, too, that you can be
really quite warm If you will only fall
where you will be a shelter from Mr..
North Wind.
"Mr. North Wind, we know, is never
warm. He is always tearing around
so much himself and blowing and rag
ing so much that he just keeps warm
himself and is too busy to think about
others.
'But we will tell you what to do,
old snow.
Here, in the woods, you fall around
the trees. Don't cover up the holes
and hollows where the rabbits can get
shelter, but fall around the hollows
SO the rabbits can crawl in and get
nice and warm.
"Then fall in just that way around
the homes Of the little squirrels, and
the homes of the birds who have come
too early, or of the little sparrows who
have such long winter trying to keep
warm.
"In the cities watch the trees where
the little birds go, and be very care
full, oh, so careful, not to cover up
the holes.
Fall so you will make big strong
fort where the little animals can creep
inside"
Now the snow decided it would do
just as the fairies had asked. 1t fell
steadily all day.
Snow banks, snow drifts, every
where there was snow. The trees
were heavy with 1t, tho ground was
covered deep with it. Little boys and

Prints ForeteU Coming Of Spring
Bye

The purpllsh tones of navy, such as
fleet blue and pilot blue, will be in the
lead. Other tones all the way to the
palest watery tints Of aqua blue and
aqua marine will appear as accents
or entire dresses to contrast with dark
coats.
There are two important groups in
silk weaves for spring-the crepes and
the heavy sheers. The French cou-
turiers favor canton faille crepes for
morning and town wear because frocks
Of these heavy crepes look we'll under
coat for early spring, and with q
fur piece or scarf later on.
Every wise wardrobe will have at
least one dress of heavy sheer crepe.
These luxurious weaves combine the
supple grace of a sheer fabric with
the fiattering depth Of color which is
generally associated with heavy silk
crepe-andante, triple fiat chiffon, and
crepe canta, a triple crepe of the geor-
gette type, are examples Of this trend
to thick sheer weaves with mat sur
face.
An early spring costume of mono
tone crepe from the showings of a
Paris couturier is here illustrated.
Polka dot crepe edged with little
pleated ruffles lends bright note Of
color in the scarf and under blouse,
the entire displaying an entirely new
silhouette. These narrow pleatings
are ever SO smart and they are Law
ished on spring frocks.

Hints for HOusekeepers

Hot cranberry sauce is good with
waffles on wintry mornings.
Plenty of fresh fruits and vegeta-
bles in the diet aids the family's appe-
tite.
Now that the eggs and milk are
relatively cheap, they can be used
economically in the low-cost diet.
A broom placed just outside the
door and used for brushing snow from
the feet saves work for the housewife.
Because only little food value Is
lost in the drying process dried fruits
are satisfactory addition to the win
ter diet.
The stout woman should emphasize
vertical lines in her clothes and not
wear colors that will make her con-
spicuous.
To stimulate a love Of reading in
the child, see that he has a COM
Portable chair of suitable size and a
good light beside it.
