r HAD known, as the rest Of the
country does, about this remark
able senior Senator from Pennsyl-
vania, who had worked his way up
from q steel mill worker.
While waiting to be called into
the Senator's private Office, felt the
need of my mirror and lipstick. Sud
denly saw in the mirror short,
sturdy, dark-eyed man coming to-
ward me. 1t was Senator Davis!
I was impressed by his big. dark
eyes, heavy brows and gray hair and
his apparent physical strength. He
started right in telling me how he
used to make "puddlers' mulligan
stew" with his fellow workers in the
steel mills at Pittsburgh in his
younger days.
Every puddler knows mulligan
stew" said the Senator, land we
used to say a good mulligan every
day is the stun that puts hair on the
chest
"To make it, we used a wash boiler
nearly filled with water. A 10-pound
soup bone was added. with the meat
cut of the bone in cubes. We put in
canned tomatoes, canned beans, peas
and in fact, every kind of vegetable
that we could get, and cooked them
all together until the meat was tender.
The longer 1t was cooked the more
flavor it had.
ut was an excellent food, contain
ing all the vitamins and was whole
meal in itself. We served it in big
bowls. If we had them, If not, we used
the dinner buckets or cans that had
contained the vegetables.
"Mulligan Is a good food, particu-
larly for men working under extreme
heat conditions, as in the steel mills.
These men cannot resist the tempta-
ton to drink cold water, which checks
perspiration, but they must sweat.
Men 'cramp' in the mills If they drink
too much ice water, and mills cannot
be air conditioned because that, too,
stops perspiring. The men become
'stoved-up' or crippled If they work
in the heat and do not perspire. A
mulligan stew warns the stomach
and makes them perspire. 1t prevents
also 'prickly heat A rash will break
out all over the body from overheating
If the stomach is not warm, too"
thought what an excellent op-
portunity it was to find out from this
interesting Senator, who had been .
puddler, Just what these men did
these men who worked in great, rum
bling, Kissing, roaring mills where the
heat is so great as to blister the very
souls of the average man. And he
had earned the right tc sit on the
Senate floor, where the air was cool
and air.eonditaoned. h replied:

Motherhood is the only profession
for which no preparation is expected
or required. The problem child usu-
ally comes from a problem home
where there is a problem mother. Tne
problem mother is a formidable factor
in social wastage. Mistakes made IN
a child's upbringing in the first years
of his life often lead to warped ana
twisted personalities, deforming every
human relationship he may ever
make. The only cure for all OF TINS
is a trained intelligent preparation
for motherhood
A school for mothersi It's grand
idea and there isn't one OF us VINO
won't be plugging for its success. II
there was ever anything that filled
longfelt want, 1t is this. For what
the world needs more than anything
else. what it always has needed and
alvays will need, is good mothers. II
there is any one who can teach women
to bring up their children to be flne
men and women, instead OF rotters
and hoodlums, she should be given
the Congressional Medal for dis
tinguished services to her country or
deified or something.
A NYWAY, 1t Is a step forward In
"a recognizing that motherhood Is
a career that requires scientlnc traln-
ing in order to be practiced success
fully. instead of an odd job that any
little nitwit of girl can turn OUT
when she isn't going to cocktail par
ties, or playing bridge, or taking part
In a golf tournament, or stepping out
to night clubs, or what do you? Good
Is bound to come of facing the fact
that at least as much thought, effort
and intelligence should be given to
nreparing oneself to shape the des-
tiny of Q human being as to now to
give q permanent or pound a type
writer.
The trouble has always been that
we have held to the theory that there
is something occult and mysterious
about motherhood and that when
woman has a baby, no matter how
brainless and fiighty she is, some
miracle occurs that gives her wisdom
and strength and insight to rear 1t.
"Nother knows best" Is the slogan we
use to enslave children to tyrants and
fools. Worse still, this idiotic idea
that every mother has an intuitive
knowledge and understanding of her
children and knows by instinct how
to guide them makes men turn over
the rearing of their youngsters to
women whose judgment they would
not trust in any other matter in the
world.

REDT1ME had come and gone and
- still Jackie, aged 312, was cry
ing and protesting He did not want
his supper. He did not want to be
undressed. He did not want to sleep.
No. he did not want daddy to carry
him to bed. No, no, he didn't want to
do anything whatsoever, nohoW, no
place, never.
He is tired to DEATH said his
mother. I'll Just have to take him
and put him to bed, whether he likes
it or not" Gathering him up in her
arms she disappeared with him in
the direction Of the bath room. From
there came sounds of battle. After
that tears and pleadings. Turn on
the big light. Stay with me. Give
him a drink Put on the blanket. No,
take it of. Let him sit In the chair
Open the window. Close it. Give him
his bear.
Lie still" said mother finally. Il
will stay with you for a little, and
sing to YOU" She began singing
softly a sleepy song. First he COM
planned. but mother sang on in the
same sleepy voice, in gentle up-and-
down rhythm. The complainings grew
fewer. Finally there was silence.
Shortly after the quiet fell on the
household mother returned to the
waiting family.
He is asleep. I blame myself for
the whole thing. 1t was beautiful
day and I wanted him to get as much
Of the fresh air and sunshine as he
could so I put him out earlier than
usual. This afternoon when it was
time for his nap I called him and he
begged to play instead of resting. I
made the mistake of letting him play
on when I should have made him
come in. He got so tired that he
couldn't think straight. 1t Is all my
fault and hereafter I'll stick to his
schedule"
20, now, don't know, Martha.
Seems to me you did the best you
could. You can't always make chill
dren rest, you know" said her mother,
anxious to relieve any guilt OF con-
science.
Il can stick to his routine and not
make trouble for him by breaking it..
Now the next time he wants to stay
out, I'll have trouble getting him in
and putting him to rest. But Ill have
to put up with it. He has to have his
rest"
Little children, and even those of
adolescent age. are likely to go be-
yond their limits Of strength. 1t Is
possible for little children who are
energized by strong nervous impulses
to continue playing after they are IA
tigued When this happens, and it
is likely to happen to any little active
child, and also to the overactive ado
lescent. the nerves that should reg
lister fatigue are too tired to work.
The children go until they collapse.
1t is this overstrain that makes
children have tantrums at bedtime.
1t is this exhaustion of reserve energy
by adolescent children that brings on
nervous Illness, indigestion, bad tenn
per. poor work. Each child has his
limitation and when that has been
reached he must rest or suffer ills that
are hard to endure and that are likely
10 be long lasting. Guard the little
ones against their own eager desire to
keep on going. Protect the adoles-
cents by insisting upon careful atten-
ton to rest hours. recreation periods,
health habits. They do not know when
they are tired.

The Old Gardener Says:

Hostas, formerly known as fun
kias, will endure more shade than
any other perennials with worth
while flowers. Sometimes the
plants are called plantain lilies
and sometimes day lilies, al
though the latter name Is likely
to cause confusion with the hem
erocallis. Probably the white
species, Hosta plantaginea gran
difiora, LIS the best, its fine white
flowers being exceedingly fra
grant. However, the smaller
leaved plantain lilies, with mar
rover foliage and light graceful
sprays Of much smaller lilac fiow-
ers, stand the sun better. All the
species need frequent division, as
they form thick, heavy crowns
that push upward until the whole
upper surface Of the root system
is exposed to frost. This makes
1t necessary to plant them deeper
than most perennials, with five or
six inches OF rich, light soil over
the crowns. They grow best In
. rich, deep soil with copious
supplies Of water.
