First of all we must teach our
children by analogy that the
problems they encounter and
attempt to solve in their play
are not unlike those they will
be called upon to handle later
on. In other words, we must
teach them little by little to un.
derstand this big world into
which they have been thrust, so
that they will not be shocked
out Of all reason when the
first real impact with it oc-
ours.
Next we must teach them to
be unafraid. For always should
they desire to tackle reality and
conquer it, rather than back
away from it and seek refuge
in hiding. In fact, this very
fear of reality is usually at
the root of neurotic states and
is linked especially with feel
ings of inferiority.
Particular attention S h o u ! d
also be given in our educational
system to the needs of the in
dividual, and always the teach,
ing should be modified so as to
take care of these needs. Simply
because a dozen children are 10
years old does not mean that
all should learn the same
studies or read the same books.
A few undoubtedly should ad.
vance faster along certain lines;
some will require special tutor
ing; it may even be desirable
to hold a few back a little, so
that their precocity shall not
overwhelm them.
Lastly, stress should be laid
upon self-expression and the de-
velopment of special aptitudes.
Shopwork, modelling in clay,
painting and the like are excel
lent pursuits for this.

education are many. For just

When Manners
Are Correct
Announcement Of Birth


DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
I have been enjoying your de.
partment in the paper, and
now have a question which I
would like to have You answer.
What is the proper procedure
for announcing the birth Of a
child to relatives and interested
friends? The simple announce
ments in the birth column OF
the paper would not reach
many of my friends abroad,
and I would like to mail some
sort Of personal announcement.
Must this be a note, or can 1t
be an attractive card with
blank spaces to be filled in
with name, date, weight, and
so forth? The engraved an
nouncements are much too ex-
pensive for me, and I am hesi-
tating between personal notes,
and the cards that are some
times used. K.
Next to the engraved birth
announcements, which are in
the best form, the very simple
birth announcement cards are
the best of the ready-made an
announcement type. I always
hesitate to recommend these,
for usually they are SO over
done that they show no taste or
discrimination. But If you can
find a simple one, white all
white, this would be very good
to send to those friends who
would not be apt to see the
birth announcement in the
newspapers. Get one with
spaces for only the. name and
the date. It is not considered
good taste, because it isn't nec-
eSsary, to include any other in.
formation. Omit the items for
weight, place of birth, and so
forth. In other words, include
only the information that is
on the engraved card, which is
the name Of the baby and the
date of it's birth.
And I would like it even
more If you would write notes
to your friends abroad. this
is even nicer than sending
cards. and they would like it
so much better than a card.

Our youngsters are living in
a most interesting age and some
day they are going to be called
upon, If not actually to help
solve them, at least to take
stand regarding sociological as
well as political problems Of an
exceedingly difficult and COM

For the world is going through
a state Of transition, and the
boys and girls Of today soon will
take up the burdens Of tomorrow.
How can we prepare them best
for such great tasks? What
can we as parents and educators
do to help them understand the
often bewildering complexities
in our social structure that al
ready confront us?
Surely allowing them to live
only in a world of childhood
fancy is not enough. Surely,
also, the old-faShioned methods
of forcing the child to soak up
reading. writing, and arithmetic
-formalized education, in other
words-is a poor way Of develop
ing initiative and self-reliance.
Not to discuss with him current
events, on the theory that such
things are not for a child's
mind, surely fails to take into
account that there is no definite
jumping-off place from which
the immature child can catapult
itself into maturity.
No. Mental development is a

You've been hearing about
lastex fabrics for a long time.
They are fabrics with rubber
threads woven in, so that they
will stretch as much as you de-
sire. Most materials have a
crepey surface Of strong, firm
threads, that will give enough
to 60 as far as the rubber goes.
Their uses are numerous. You'll
find lastex used for bathing
suits, where it Is excellent, for
knitted hats and caps, for un-
derwear of various kinds, and
even in dresses and suits.
Good in indies.
Probably the most useful las
tex garments are the various
underthings that are made Of
this marvellous stretchy mate.
rial. They are firm enough to
give you support in place Of a
girdle, if you're not too large,
yet they are easy, comfortable
and soft. The fabrics are not
near as thick or bulky as girdle
fabrics, and so q thinner,
lighter garment can be made.
You may have any surface you
want, from sleekest satin for
your evening things, to sturdy
sports materials. Bathing suits
will undoubtedly be very popu-
lar this year Of lastex mate
rials, and not only are they
easy to swim in, but they do
marvellous things for your fig
ure.
Stretch to Fit
Lingerie OF lastex has been
in washington for a month or
more, and has been worn by
enough people that it's success
and practicability is assured.
We're sketching the popular
pieces for you today. There's
a one-piece garment that fits
like your own skin, and makes
never a seam or a wrinkle un-
der your evening clothes. This
garment is in satin lastex, and
comes in white or flesh. The
panties, which really take the
place of a girdle. are either in
satin laSteX, or a new porous,
meshy texture that will be par
ticularly good for summer.
They are in the same colors.
The slip is Of silk crepe, with
just the bandeau Of laStex, the
satin kind, and it's a marvel of
good fit and smoothness. 1t is
priced $4.95 and so are the pan
ties, while the one-piece gar
ment is ST and the mesh panties
only $2.95. They all come in

The Beauty
Box

Slimpy gals who add a few
pounds to upholster their angles
must keep in mind that it isn't
the quantity Of food eaten, but
the kind, that builds up curves
and cushions. More butter on
the bread, more cream and
sugar on cereals, a glass Of
milk and cream with each meal
will do the work. And with
no extra strain on digestive
organs.
When eyes are close set. a
girl is justified in extending
the length of the eyebrows
with a fine, light penciling.
When she plucks the brows, it
is advisable to work from the
under side rather than the
upper. Some Of the freaky
designs seen nowadays are
pretty terrible, but it is likely
that they are an Improvement
on those that aren't weeded at
all. At any rate, they give
the face an appearance Of
neatness and attention.
A sagging skin, taking on
creepy lines, requires plenty of
nouriShing cosmetics, light tap

an astringent and cold water.
The time for creaming is at
night, the time for the cold

the morning. No steaming, no

sprained an ankle. But all day long
he stuck to his post in the steady rain
with the top down. concealing pain
from his injured ankle.
In Taft's day Robbie supervised the
building of an automobile, and he
thoughtfully included special rail
along the top by which man OF Mr..
Taft's weight could easily pull himself
to his feet. Robbie recalls that Theo-
dore Roosevelt preferred the horse and
carriage and that again when Mr.. Taft
and Woodrow Wilson rode to the Cap
itol, they went in carriage.
But every four years since then, on
March 4, Robbie has been at the wheel
and under the new DEAL he probably
will continue as dean of the White

Warren G.. Harding, Robbie says, used
the automobile perhaps more than any
other President. Mr.. Harding liked to
ride fast. So does Mr. Roosevelt when
the opportunity presents itself. It was
not so with Calvin Coolidge. Robbie
