Routine for
Classroom
Discipline
Will Help Solve Prob
lem in Lower
Grades.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

EVERY school head is familiar with
the problem that leaving the
room, or rather not leaving the room,
places before him every school term.
st couldn't get Vincent to go to
school this afternoon, and I don't
blame him. The idea. He asked
the teacher for permission to leave
the room and she said, Put your
hand down He couldn't help himself
and had an accident. That's fine
thing for teacher to do. She ought
not to be teacher. She ought to
be made to leave the school. II Vim
cent is sick I'll sue her for damages.
Something ought to be done about
| it."
"Yes," says the teacher wearily.
81 did say, Put your hand down.
He was about the thirty-fifth that
morning. A steady procession. Open
and shut, open and shut. tramp,
tramp, tramp. I can't teach in
procession. Anyway, if he had had
any sense he could have walked out,
couldn't he? How am to know who
really needs to go and who is just
escaping work?'
Begin the first day. Have a book
and pencil tied by the door. Nobody
asks to leave the room. He who needs
to go tiptoeS softly on his way, writes
his name, the time he left, and the
| time he returned. Some may take
advantage of this. but they are soon
discovered The teacher does not for
bid even them to leave the room. She
takes the book and sends a report
home that says, John Henry was
obliged to leave the room three times
day, sometimes five times, with the
result that he lost many of his lessons.
When he interrupts his lesson even
for q few minutes he loses the best
part of it. OF course this is going to
mean a great loss of work and threaten
his class standing. Perhaps it might
be well to have the doctor see him?
A healthy child usually has no such
difficulty
This reduces the number of children
leaving the room to the group who
actually need to go.
Never punish a child for leaving
the room. Never forbid one to 60.
Don't inquire them to ask to go as
that means an interruption and your
reason for reducing the excursionists
lies right there. Every interruption
costs valuable time. You do not care
about the matter save for that reason.
School time is highly valuable, and
class room work must be carried on
with as little noise, as little inter-
ruption as possible.
The children who ask to leave the
room for recreation purposes are not
interested in the lessons. You will
find that when the class is busily en-
gagged in their work there will be very
few such interruptions. 1t is when the
lessons are dragging, or something
uninteresting Is afoot, that the pro-
cession starts.
Be strict in the observance Of recess
time. All children should leave the
class room and have breath Of fresh
air and have drink. This is must"
in the lower grades. Never should
child be deprived of his recess. Never
should he be refused permission to
leave the ROOM There is no prob
lem here in the well-conducted class
room. When it arises it is a fault in
the class management always.

Been One of Mannds Most
Dorothy Dix Says
Idleness Is a Curse to Hitherto Occupied
Women.
Women.

1dleness Is the curse Of women. It
makes them neurotic. 1t makes them
unreasonable and peevish and fretful
and complaining. 1t turns them into
imaginary invaiids and philanderers
and trouble makers. 1t Is the woman
with nothing to do who fill sanato-
RUINS and make doctors rich and who
get into messy love affairs with men
they pick up at the movies or cock
tail bars, and who break up their
children's homes by sticking their
fingers into their pies.
You cant take the work out Of the
hands of a woman who has been busy
for 80 or 40 years and have her be
contented. The habit of work is too
strong on her. She can't break it.
She doesn't know what to do with
leisure. All she can do Is to brood
over her troubles and think unwhole-
some thoughts. That's what is the
matter with your mother and that is
why she doesn't appreciate how atten-
tive you are to her, and that's why she
is selfish enough to be willing to make
you unhappy just because she is.
X X X
A ND the only remedy for what ails
her is to get her a job. Get her
something to do, no matter how little
it pays. She needs the work for
works sake. She needs to feel herself
useful again and independent and to
have something more cheerful to do
than just to sit around waiting for
the undertaken to come.
At any rate, a woman at 50 Is too
young to climb up on the do-nothing
stool and expect her children to sup
port her. Fifty-two isn't aged now.
1t is barely middle age And the
average woman Of that age is stronger.
healthier, generally more physically
fit than she ever was before. She
should have at least 25 years of good
work before her and she should get
going.
1t is all very sweet and beautiful
and filial to say to mother when
father dies that she has worked long
enough and that her children will
take care of her the remainder of her
days, but it is the unkindest thing
they can do if mother is strong and
we'll. She doesn't need pampered
idleness. She needs something to DO
that will keep her on the jump. She
needs work. DOROTHY DIX.

spectively. The tasty sweets are about
2l2 inches in diameter and mod
erately thin. They sell at II cents
dozen. The coconut snap is very SIM
liar in taste to the favorite macaroon.
Any of these, however, should be just
the thing for the cookie jar and pro-
vide tasty tidbit for the school lunch
kit. The sugarsnaps are just the thing
for the tiny tots because they are not
too rich or sweet as some sugar
cookies are apt to be.
T OOKING for something unusual in
in the way of layer cakes? We've
found one that IS quite out of the
ordinary. It's a fresh fruit orange
cake which comes in two or three
layers and is put together with a
fresh orange marmalade filling and
topped with a fluffy orange frosting.
Sold by the pound or made up to
order in individual cakes. The filling
is dehciously moist and has a true
fruit flavor. The cake is moderately
rich yellow Lady Baltimore" variety
which blends beautifully with the
filling and icing. Cut in dainty, thin
slices, it makes a perfect tea sweet.
Served in thick slices as a dessert, 1t
brings something a little different
to the dessert course, with the mini
mum Of trouble.
IF YOU are interested in making
ginger marmalade and don't know
where to find the green ginger that
the recipes call for, we'll be glad TO
give you the names of few local
merchants who carry this spicy in
gredient. Green fig and ginger mar
malade is a real delicacy, especially
when it's homemade! A lot of the
old-fashioned picking, preserving and
chutney recipes call for green gin
ger, too. If you've been wanting to
try some of grandmother pet recipes.
now is your chance.

Dinner Host
With Gifts
u n u S u | Custom
Proves Troubling to
Bachelor.
BY EMILY POST.

NEAR MRS. POST: I am a mere
man asking why it is necessary,
on being invited to a dinner, to buy
ones self out" by bringing the hostess
a present. Conversely. resent my
guests presenting me with gifts of any
nature when accepting my hospitality.
Surely value their friendships suf-
| ficiently to invite them and do not
expect them literally to pay for their
dinner by additional donations. Is
it q custom gradually to furnish one S
home with gifts brought by dinner
guests? And how may convey my
dislike to those who apparently think
1t is?
Answer: In all the letters that
have received, and in my whole life's
experience, I have never before heard
Of any guest bringing present to the
hostess Cor host) at dinner. let alone
being expected to do so. This is a
brand-new neighborhood custom to
me and I agree with you that the
sooner it is discouraged the better.
4 X Il
DEAR MRS. POST: Should my
husband expect me to call on the
wives Of his business employees who
move into town as strangers? I have
refused to do so, maintaining that it
is wrong to encourage people with
whom see no reason to become So
cially friendly. I have my own friends
and would rather not have the wives
of my husbands employees know every
thing We do outside Of business. This
may sound horribly aloof and like a
down-my-nose attitude. On the con-
trary. social position has nothing to
do with my writing to you.
Answer: On the principle that q
good wife tries to do what her hus-
band wants her to do, this, it seems,
depends entirely upon your husbands
wants" But see no reason in the
world why you shouldn't belong to a
dozen different circles and how know
ing an extra one can in any way in
terfere in your relationship with your
other friends.

My Neighbor Says:

Crocuses may be forced in the
house. They bloom in 8 or 10
weeks from the time they are
potted.
A few vines growing in an open
bowl of water are particularly
good in any room, because as
the water evaporates the dryness
disappears from the air.
Potatoes used in salad should
be thoroughly chilled and with
sharp knife cut into half-inch
dice. Add rest Of ingredients and
mix with fork. This will aid in
preventing salad from becoming
"mushy."
Pour pineapple juice, grape
fruit or rather sour lemonade
into one of the freezing trays in
mechanical ice box to get de-
licously Favored cubes for add
ing to chilled beverages. A piece
Of mint added to each cube when
partially frozen gives flavor as
well as color.

heating in oven, are very good

lation of trash and faulty cellar floor
ing all offer an ample opportunity
for rats to set up housekeeping with
out consulting a rental agent.
Care in keeping all foodstuffs be-
yond reach, in eliminating all pos
sible shelters, and in actually killing
the rodents by poison, traps OF terriers
will go far toward lessening the in
feStation. Poisoning is usually the
most effective method of rubbing out
quantities of rats. but poisoned bats
are so dangerous to other animals,
and to children. that many people hes
itate about using them. The De-
partment of Agriculture recommends
barium carbonate as a good rat poi
son, that is. perhaps. the safest to
have about, although it will prove fatal
to other animals if consumed in large
Quantities. 1t is also poisonous to
fowls. When there are children about
it should be used only with the great
est care and number of precautions.

PED SQUILL, which is poisonous to
rats, but not to other animals or
humans, is recommended when a more
toxic bait is inadvisable. 1t may be
mixed with variety of substances to
form bats that usually turn the trick
on Mr.. Rat in short order.
There are commercial dustS and fu-
migantS that are very effective, and,
of course, many types of traps. A good,
up-and-coming terrier can do a lot
towards starting the rats on good
long walk away from home. And the
'old folks" say that keeping one pet
white rat in the house is sure to keep
the hoi-polloi away-but I'd hate to
try it!
The main preventative, as I see it,
is to place bed, board and water out
of their reach. making life just as un-
attractive for them as possible: clean
up the stragglers by some death-deal-
ing device; don't allow any stray loi-
tering around the premises, and hope
for the best.

EAR MISS DIX: Until I wa.

~ EAR MISS DIX: Until I was
27 lived at home with my
mother, who Is a widow.
- When got married my wife
objected to living with a mother-in-
law, and as I was making plenty of
money, took q little place for us
and kept mother in her own home.
Lately things have been breaking a
little tough, and, as could no longer
keep both houses going, mother went
to live with widowed sister. Several
days week, whenever I get a few
hours to spare, rush over and take
mother for a ride, or, if am going
on some business I take her along for
the drive. Whenever possible, I take
her to show or shopping and she
comes to us one night week for din
ner and often on Sundays. She en-
joys herself when I am with her or
when she can take my little girl out
for walks, but if fail to see her for
day or two she starts crying and gets
sullen and often won't speak to me.
She has been good mother to me.
love her dearly and it grieves me to
think Of her being unhappy She is So
years OF age and in good health.
Please tell me what to do.
BEWILDERED SON.
Answer-Get your mother a Job.
What she needs is work, something to
do that will take up her time, give
her new interests and make her feel
that she is of some use in the world.
You see, all of her life she has been
busy. She has been rushed with
work keeping house and rearing a
family. She has felt herself impor-
tant because she was necessary to the
comfort and well-being of her husband
and children. She didn't have time
to think about herself. Her days were
full and she was happy.
NOW all of that is changed. Her
husband is dead. Her children
dead or married and gone from her
She has no longer even a house to
sweep and keep clean and putter
around in. She has nothing to do but
kill time, and she doesn't know how
to do that enjoyably. All she has To
do is just to sit with idle, empty hands
and think and think, magnify trifles
and make mountains out of mole
hills, and she has got morbid.
