distracted by continually taking
the lid off the garbage can and
trying to put it on again, he is
trying out his skill at manipulate
ing objects. The baby may be per-
fectlv satisfied with the garbage
can as plaything, but most moth
ers would find it more convenient
to give him a set of hollow blocks,
or trays, which he can fit into
each other.
Playing house is one of the earl
lest shared interests of children.
Bathrooms with running water
have recently been added to this
homemaking toy group. A minia-

Her Own Kitchen
Refrigerators stocked with arti-
ficial food and ice cubes, kitchen
sinks with running water and the
always popular kitchen cabinet
make the play kitchen a center OF
much activity. Setting these toys
up in mothers kitchen with pre-
tend cooking and dishwashing an
accompaniment to real household
tasks affords a pleasant introduc-
ton to the details of home making

Toys May

To Future
From Baby To 8-Year-Old
Gift Should Stimulate
Body And Mind
By MARY E. BUCHANAN
Managing Editor
The Parents Magazine

Shopping for children's toys with
no better guide to what they want
or need than the parents own de-
light in something cute or dltterent
is thing of the past. For instead
OF toys designed to keep children
quiet" nowadays it is recognized
that toys play a major part III
the child's development, both men
tai and physical.
Toys, therefore, should provide
an experience just little in ad-
vance of what child already
knows or what he can already do
in order to stimulate this develop
ment. They should not, however
be so strange or complicated as
to leave child angry or frustrat-
ed because he can't make them
work. Nor will expert direction
from mother and father make the
wrong toy into the right one, since
this only intensifies the child's
feeling of dependence on adults.
Beginning with the baby, if he's

they should learn to control their
large leg and arm muscles before
the finer coordination of fingers
and eyes is called on for y
length of time.
Their First Books
This. isn't, however, necessarily
true about their first books-they
prefer fairly small picture books
because they are easier to handle
than the large, flat ones we used
to choose for toddlers.
Push" and pull are the
watchwords in buying toys for the
child of two. He wants to draw
things about, to empty toys over
and over again from one contalner
into another. A cart or small Wag-
on is essential to his happiness,
and a truck load of blocks will
keep him hauling contentedly. This

able wooden peg to represent the
driver, a new version of the peg
board on wheels.
When a child drives his mother

ever going to do more than lie
flat on his back and stare at the
ceiling, he must learn control OF
his arm movements, and of the
muscles of his back and legs as
well. So you give him things he
can reach fora colorful rattle
suspended above his crib, a rub
Der or celluloid duck in his bath.
Of course, we insist nowadays
that a baby's playthings be wash
able, that they have no S h arp
edges and that the paint won't
come off, because babies learn
through the feel of things in their
mouths as well as in their hands.
Washable stuffed animals and
dolls are more attractive than ever
this year and always please the
baby.
One of the basic rules in select,
ing toys for the one to three-year-
old is that small children need
large toys-good sized balls, large.
lightweight blocks. This is because

outlets for the musically inclined,
as well as for those who love MAX
ing a noise.
Many Wheel Toys
It is between six and eight that
boys and girls begin to show mark
ed difference in play interests.
Boys will need construction sets,
science toys, while their love of
airplanes and trains will be inten-
sified. Girls become devoted to
doll families and delight in minia-
ture accessories for giving them
the care real babes enjoy, such as
nursing and hot water bottles, doc
tor and nurse kits. Games that en-
courage group play are a requi-
site for both boys and girls of this
age.
Wheel toys are of the utmost
importance from eight years on.
Now is the time for boys and girls
to learn from experience with their
own toy automobiles, bicycles and
other wheel toys that there is a
safe way and an unsafe way to
get about the streets on wheels.
For older children Vocational
toys fill an important need and
often help the young person to
find congenial, lifelong interest.

instructions and materials for
drawing cartoons. There are tele-
graph sets, chemistry sets, print

and loads.
Still Some Hope
For Recovery
There is still some hope for

But if we are to preserve the

hen, we must act quickly"

But the existence of the pra-

Large favorably located gov
ernment-owned refugees would
save these birds, Lehman de-
clared. These refugees would al
most certainly insure survival.
Action to acquire refugees must
be prompt, he warned, because
less than a dozen choice areas
remain in the entire State of
Texas.

6 million acres of the Gulf
Coast prairies, extending from
South Texas near Port Isabel
to Louisiana in the vicinity of
OpelousaS, Abbeville, and Bayou
Teche. In 1887, there were only
$4,000 acres of occupied range
left in the four Texas counties.
Causes for the decrease of
the Attwater's prairie chicken
are many" Lehman said.
More than 2 million acres of
what was once the best Attwa-
ter habitat is now under cult
walton. Pasture burning in
spring destroys eggs and young.
The May rains are especially
serious"
Local hunting also has been
detrimental in the past because
open seasons came in Septem-
Der, Or earlier, when the young
OF the year were physically i'm
mature and inexperienced. To
control the hunting factor, the
Texas legislature in 1887 pro-
vided a Swear closed season
on all prairie chickens in the
state.
The significant point in the
history of this bird, it was
pointed out, is that during the
past IS years the range of the
Attwater's prairie chicken has
declined more than SO per cent
and the number of birds has
decreased more than 80 per
cent.
Good Range in Only
Four Counties
Suitable areas with enough
prairie chicken range to make
recovery of the bird likely are
now found in only four Texas
counties: Refugio and Brazonia.

The Attwater's prairie chic

popular game birds along the
Gulf coast, is rapidly disappear

of the heath hen and other ex-
tinct birds unless adequate mea-
sures are taken soon to preserve
this race, according to a Fish
and Wildlife service report re-

the interior Harold L. Ickes.
Formerly, the population of

ranged on the coastal prairies
