lovable little beings. They can be
trained into politeness and pleasant
ness. They will have their lapses,
of course. But if a mother can steel
herself to a little heroism in the be-
ginning; if she is not afraid to es-
tablish a few rules of conduct, she
will win for herself some of the hap
piest years a woman can know.
All the baby authorities tell young
mothers that no child should be fed
for more than 20 minutes. When he
begins to dribble out the spinach,
or play with the bottle, or work food
about in his mouth in the manner
described by the disgusting word
"sloshing," he is having good time
at your expense. If you have the
courage to stop right then and re-
fuse him all food until the next feed
ing time, you won't have to repeat
the process more than three times.
One reason why many of us grew
to strength and stature years ago
was because our mothers, with ten,
eight, seven children to raise, didn't
have any time to waste on our infant
vagaries. Besides that, anyone who
wanted a second helping Of pudding
had to make brisk work of the first
helping. Puddings, in the nineties,
vanished more quickly than they do
today, when we all pamper and coax
and fatter small appetites too much.
A Cure for Rudeness.
"The one thing of which we had
to cure our child was rudeness,"
writes a Kentucky mother. don
was an adorable, Well-behaved baby,
but at six he returned from his pri-
mary school ruder and noisier and
bolder every day. We didn't mind
the boldness and noise, but to get a
surly impatient answer from our
adored boy was too much. His ia
Their scolded, l sent him from the
room, refused lollipops, did every
thing l could think Of All no use.
"This went on for three or four
months, and I began to feel that l
had lost my friendly little compan-
ion forever, when an older mother
suggested simple cure that she
said had worked miracle with her
sons. 1t was just to give the child
warning that request or command
was to be made.
"We tried it, and our problem
vanished into thin air in less than a
week. Before asking Don anything,
| or interrupting him in any way, his
father or l would say mildly, Don,
l am going to ask you in a minute
! if you realize that it is bedtime, and
l would like a gentle answer Or,
Don, when l ask you if you want
more steak please say yes or no
nicely and quietly
"From the first trial this worked
like a charm. 1t never once failed,
except when Big Donald and failed.
Instead of impatient rudeness, the
child began to listen and to consider.
He is still as wild as an Indian
when he is with the other boys. But
at home 1 have my gentleman
again.
"Last night" the letter ends, "his
father happened to speak to him
abruptly and inconsiderately. Little
Don smiled at big Don and asked
pleasantly, Would you like to ask
me that again, Dad?' His father was
honest enough to answer yes, and
the question was repeated. 1t
seemed to me then that all three OF
us had learned a valuable lesson,
and 1 pass it along"

POOR DISCIPLINE

Kathleen Norris places the blame for
Hammered children Squarely on the
shoulders of their parents. No child is
perfect, and the best-mmnered t0iH
hare occasional idpSes, but the con.

MEET THE Chimp And LEARN
Why MEN BEHAVE IIKE-MEN


Many of the experiments car
ried on here could not be under
taken with man to learn why we
do the things we do, so the Yale
university research experts have
gone to the next best source for
hints.
Lower Level Of Emotion
Results of tests of baby apes
reared away from their parents
will be compared with tests Civ
en- to young chimps brought uI
by their own mothers and with
other young apes.
Peter, for example, went
through two courses of tests be-
fore he was allowed to reioin
other apes in the colony. The
scientists found ''the impression
was very definite that the subject
showed lower level OF emotion
ality" than young chimpanzees
who had been reared together.
Dr.. Robert NJ Yerkes, who di-
rects all the work here and II

were more imagination among
champanzees they might be ex-
pected to develop a spoken Ian.

After an investigation of the
clothing situation, General Buck
ner concluded that hooded par

protection for the men against
the extremes of cold prevalent
in the Alaskan interior. These
garments are made only by the
ESkimos, from the skins of Arctic

set the Eskimo tailors working
overtime.
