 NEW YORK. June 17.--A year ago this spring the Maternity Cen ter Association hestitantly announc- cd a class t2 initiate prospective fathers into the mysteries of baby hood. then sat back to wait for g handful of diffident gentlemen to arrive. a6
 Instead of a handful, 1o0 papas- to-be showed up at the associa- tion's tiny offices The lecturer di- vided them into two groups, but even so, some of the initiates stood up against the wall all evening. They had so many questions to ask, the session lasted till II o'clock.
 That was only. the start, Today, more than 40 cities and towns hold classes on the pattern of the first New York. session. Chicago, Cleveland, New Haven, Washington cities like these and, small towns too-run six-week courses instruct ing the prospective father in every thing, from anatomy to lessons in bathing the baby
 The Association says, the pub licity resultant from the first New York class was responsible for the development of other classes. Mothers said: Now if my husband had only had a course like that 2 They said it in health committee meetings. Finally, they asked the association in New York how to set up 9 class locally
 As these requests poured in. the staff decided to prepare syllabus to help other organizations plan their classes. Now when an inquiry comes in. they just ship the sylla- bus off They're doing that every few days.
 Most popular part of the course is the session with the model baby. After the first class the association thought it would drop the child care lesson. To d man, the papas chorused No" The same thing happened when they thought of eliminating diapering from the syllabus Don't" protested classes everywhere. So a seven pound dummy Junior keeps on having his hide stuck with pins.
 If he wants to, the prospective father can receive cabinet-making instruction too. The association has diagrams to show how to build simple, inexpensive cabinets and shelves to take care of baby's be- longings Also, it helps men budget the new baby.
 No more jittery fathers, says the association. The courses are guar anteed to take him utsof his floor pacing, cigarette-smoking role the day his wife goes to the hospital.

Bedtime Stories

Peter Rabbit didn't 60 home to
the dear Old Briar Patch the morn
ing after he heard the voice of Piper
the Hyla for the first time. Usual
ly when he had spent night in the
Green Forest, he got back to the
dear Old Briar Patch by daylight
or a little before. But this time he
didn't 60 home at all. He went
straight over to the Smiling Pool
instead. 1t wasn't the safest place
in the world to be in the daytime,
but Peter was willing to run a little
risk for the sake of seeing Piper the
Hyla. and he knew that he never
would be able to find Piper in the
night. 1t was hard enough in day.

"T do, Jerry, I do" replied Peter

So Peter sat perfectly still, and
sure enough presently Piper began

to come from over there on the other
side of the Smiling Pool, it seems
to come from behind the Big Rock,

thing more provoking?"
Peter stamped with impatience,
and instantly Piper stopped piping.

Mr.. Sun threw off his rosy blankets
and began his daily climb up in the
blue, blue sky. The Black Shadows
fled from the jolly Little Sunbeams,
the birds began to waken, which
means that they began to sing, for
the very first thing bird does when
it opens its eyes in the morning is
to call or sing. 1t was lovely there
at the Smiling Pool listening to all
of the joyous sounds. Peter almost

join in the happy chorus to greet
the day. Peep, peep, peep, peep,

the Hyla was very much awake, and
it was good, oh, so good, to hear him.
Peter stamped on the bank. In

grinned again. Hes just the same,

thought Peter. 1T always surprises
me that one so timid should sing so
loudly. I suppose it is because he
