Your Child
Your Child
Don COnUi7,Ce Your Child That
He's Bad, or He'll Become So

is not correcting, but skillful guild
ing in the right direction.
But the wrong kind of suggestion
does much harm. For instance, If
Billy's mother tells him every few
minutes that he is naughty. he will
take her literally, as all little people
do, and his mind fixes itself on one
fact.
He is a bad boy. He just knows
he is bad, that is all, in some sort
Of a general way; he knows he's a
bothersome, undesirable person who
is great trouble to his mama.
Child Becomes Unhappy
If he were older, and of course
he will get older, he would just
say, Whats the use? If they say
I an bad I am going to be bad.
I may as well have the game as the
name" At least ne would argue
some way like this to himself.
But now at 3 or 4 he merely be-
comes unhappy. And when a little
child becomes unhappy and uncer-
tain and lives under a cloud in his
own mind, something very deep and
blighting happens.
He loses interest in trying. In
variably loss of self esteem precedes
loss of effort whether a person be
4 or 40.
1t is at 4, however, that the great
fabric of pride begins to weave itself
into the emotional makeup Of
life; even earlier than that, to be
precise, for it is some time after
the third birthday that he begins
to be conscious of this pride.
1t is during this time that his
social reactions or his conscious"
contacts get their start.
Suggestion Goes Far
He is of course very sensitive and
any suggestion now, whether good or
bad, will have a tremendous effect
on his later conduct.
On the other hand, If Billy's
mother praises him every time she
gets a chance, he is going to be so
much pleased and encouraged that
he will take a tremendous interest
in earning more praise. When a
child believes in himself, half of
battle is won.
He can't be perfect, of course, &C
cording to our silly older mind STAN
ards. We shall have to get over
setting up 30-year--old ideas for
4-year-old minds to cry to conceive.
Billy's mother will have to realize
this and overlook many things she
calls naughty, II she would succeed.
1t does not make a little boy or
girl conceited to praise them. At
any rate, this so-called conceit is
a good thing because it Is natural.
Through it we can reach them.
So praise them when they are
generous, when they try to help.
when they make awkward little forts
or battle their baby dolls, when they
try to do things for themselves or
to drink their milk or go to bed.
BY suggestion build up the idea
that they are first class people
And If they are disobedient OF
naughty try TO turn their interest
quickly 70 something else.
To say You're a bad boy" OF
you are bad girl" has no place
in any child life.

NEW YORK. May 1.-THE in
IN veterate week-ender Is finding
that fashion Is just made for her
this spring. Those old questions,
How many clothes will need?"
and win have TO take more than
one bag2" are answered by very
few separate costumes and every
thing viii go in one case"
There are so many costumes that
can be made 70 serve more than one
purpose. And so many that need
little packing space because Of their
light fabrics.
One Of the most useful spring
weekend costumes we've seen Is a
three piece suit Of sheer tweed &.
jacket. skirt and matching topcoat.
We've had it illus.rated)
Great for Travel
It's a fine travel costume, eSpe-
cially II you're motoring. but equally
useful after you arrive at your des-
tination. The suit alone can serve
several purposes.
It can be used as a spectator
sports costume worn with a tailored
blouse or knit sweater.
1t even can be made dressy
enough for church by wearing a
more formal blouse and adding a
silk OF fur scarf.
The topcoat then serves as a coat
to wear over the extra daytime or
sports dress you've put in your suit
case.
Practical for Weekend
incidentally, that extra daytime
or sports dress might well be
bright-colored knitted one. That will
do for spectator sports. for house
wear. or even for golf. If you've
tucked your golf shoes into your
bag.
Another good, practical week
end costume is the short sleeved
dress with its own matching
Jacket a jacket-dress. 1t may
be OF heavy sheer crepe in plain
color or of printed crepe. 1t packs
into very little space.
II the jacket is tailored-look-
ing ana the dress soft in line, you
can do all these things with 1t;
wear it with the jacket for church
or lunching in public or just going
about and without the jacket
for lunch at home, for informal att
ernoon bridge or even for dinner, If
dinner is just pleasant, simple
home affair.
Jacket Costume Useful
Still another useful type of
Jacket costume Is of lower calf
length in a deep pastel shade or
beige. With the jacket it's suitable
for afternoon affairs. Without 1t,
it becomes a semi-formal dinner
dress.
Sports costumes become spec
tator or active, too just by put
ting on or taking off n jacket and
changing shoes. The dress may be
sleeveless and the jacket short or
long sleeved
Even your evening clothes, II you
have to take them, can be Two
things in one, because so many
dresses have their own jackets or
capelets that can be worn informal
~ or left off formally.
And a black chiffon cut low in
back, but with covered shoulders,
can smartly appear at any affair
formal or informal
Even your hats are practical, for
there are many crushable fabric
turbans and pliable straws that can
be folded, helping to make the
packing problem easier.
What's Your Sports Color?
Have you sent yet for the bulle-
tin giving actual samples Of smart
summer sports colors, and telling
how to combine them in the cos

But "Lightnin' had real self quite

licity. was William Wallace Kennedy,
"Wall" for short, who lived some sixty
years ago in Brownsville, Neb. In the
early nineties Kennedy left Nebraska
and located at Napa, Calf, where he
became jailer and guard of a chain
gang assigned to general duties about
town. "Wall" was great teller OF
good yarns, many of which the county
clerk wrote up for publication in the
local newspaper, among them the story

Young Oliver La Fargo, who wrote
Laughing Boy" is now in Guatemala,
the country which has the parrot on
Its stamps. Mr.. La Fargo, on an ex-
petition backed by Columbia university,
Is living in wild little Indian village,
studying the ancient ceremonfals. He
believes he is far enough away from
civilization so that the Indian Gus
toms are Still In their native state,
uncolored by contact with the white
man. His only outside companion is
western Indian, who has been with
him in other places. He acts as a
sort of liason officer with these other
rednen.
Since the pipe and tomahawk chiefs
have disappeared from in front of to-
bacco stores, about the only Indians
we have in New York are members
of the Tammany wigwam. The orig
inal Tammany was an ancient and
noted Delaware chief, and his name
meant "The Affable." The first Tam
many society was organized in Phil
adelphia in 1876. In 1856 Tammany
was organized in New York as a ma
tional organization, with thirteen
branches, by William Mooney, vet
eran Of the Revolution. Originally, it
was patriotic and charitable society,
and the emblem of the New York
branch was the eagle. All except the
New York branch passed out Of exist
ence, and the Delaware branch, in
passing, apparently bequeathed New
York it's emblem, which was the tiger.
The New York branch seems to have
decided that charity begins at home,
and turned its hand to politics. The
original Tammany was so good man
that he was supposed to associate with
spirits. According to Judge Seabury,
some of his namesakes still do.
It was about two o'clock In the
morning when the prominent clubman,
with his silk hat perched at rakish
angle, made his entrance. The only
other inhabitant Of the club at that
hour fortunately happened to be one
of his good friends. The newcomer
announced he had just seen the most
beautiful woman in the world. The
friend demanded her whereabouts.

also dismount. Wanted to show him
