that imparted to the future par ents in the common schools. It is rather Q nasty subject and so the schools ignore 1t.
 This mother is training a young tartar, a holy terror, an incorrig- ibie. a delinquent, perhaps a re- cruit for the underworld. Heredity has little to do with that. Poverty or wealth has nothing to do with 1t, in my opinion. Environment, family spirit, home atmosphere moral principle and training seem to me the factors which are im- portant in determining the charac- ter and fate of the child.
 Here Is an unfortunate situation, an amateur mother who believes the baby needs other foods thar milk but fails to give the baby the advantage of such nutrition be- cause grandma interferes anG grandma is just hard enough t. impose her will upon the parenta because they are living in her house. Grandma means well, nc doubt, but she is insuring the ruin of the child, nevertheless.
 The best course for this mother would be to take her baby to a physician. for specific instructions about feding, sleep. etc., the prop CT way to care for Q baby and give the child a break. If she can't af- ford medical advice she should take the baby to a publis dispen- sary or free clinic. She might do this instead of throwing party when the baby fails to sleep.
 Think of putting Q baby to bed at 9 p. m.! Every baby should be abed by 6 p. m. at least. Babies under a year old should be bathed, fed, and abed by 5 D. m.

 3.--What else are we going to do with the child up to fourteen and sixteen? Professor Isaac l.. Handel. of Columbia University, in a recent address pointed out that machines have thrown so many out of employment that soon all jobs will be taken by adults, leaving the adolescents in idleness. He suggested this means either we must provide for their continuing in school or else develop a vast body of delinquents and criminals. No doubt education must be radi- cally changed and made to serve more directly the life needs of the student. But the choice between more education or more crime seems unacceptable.

DRIED PEAS AND BEANS
 MUST BE COOKED LONG.
By MARY E. DAGUE

By MARY 10. DAGUE
 Mrs Roosevelt served Hopping John at the White House not long ago and immediately everybody in the country started buying black eyed peas. hope that lot of people found out how good they are and will keep on serving them. For they save money, they add proteins to the diet and above all, savorily seasoned, they make the best kind of eating.
 Of course the dried pea, bean and lentil family have come down in the world & bit recently with word from the laboratory that they are incomplete protein foods and must be supplemented by egg, cheese and milk. All the same. they fill an important niche for phosphorus in good-sized quanti- ties.
 Long slow cooking is impera- five to soften the tough fiber and make dried legumes palatable. When served to small children they should also be rubbed through sieve.
 You've probably often baked the navy bean, but did you ever serve the lima the same way? If not, try it for luncheon some cold January noon with hearts of cele- cry for a relish (there's a dish for you'll and prune and almond ba- varian cream ofollow.

JHlLDREN AND HARD TIMES

CHILDREN AND HARD TIMES
 Last week, when discussing with MT Johnson and Judge Henry the effects of the economic crisis on the health of children, $ promised to tell them what one tate was do- L4ng to discover and counteract those effects. This, in part, is what I told them:
 The State of Pennsylvania is rounding up it's children. Among the families on relief in that state there are more than 760,000 chill dren, and many hundreds of thou sands in families on the border line of relief. If these children are neg lected now, the effects of malnutri- tion and other physical handicaps are likely to cripple their growth and development for the rest of thei lives. Under the leadership of the governor, therefore, the state medical society with the aid of the state department of health, public instruction and walefare, the em- ergency relief board, The children are examined free of charge by the physicians and if they need correc- tive work they are sent to a hopi- tai for surgical treatment, to a dentist for dental treatment, to the county emergency relief boards for cod liver oil or extra food and to their own family doctor for medi- cal care. All of thi treartmept is given free to those who cannot pay for it. A far as possible, each child is kept under the care of the doctor who formerly attended his family. ,r.
 It is a tremendous piece of work, and 1t is being put across by CO., operation. The women's clubs, the mems service clubs, the nurses, the
