PERSONALITY CAN BE
DEVELOPED BY EVERYONE,

The most interesting subject in the
world to any normal person is himself.
This elf-centered interest is often con-
demned, but really it is useful. How
ever, egotism must not be permitted
to reach the egotistic stage.
Much is written and said about per-
sonality but there are still many wrong
ideas as to what personality is. It's
you. Everyone has personality, whether
it is pleasing or not pleasing, healthy
or unhealthy. Everyone has a quality
of the kind which identifies us as in
dividuals.
Many persons would like to describe
personality as a magic gift of heritage
but it is not. And it is not the way
you comb your hair nor the art of
telling funny stories. 1t is human ef-
fectiyeneSs, human performances-the
action. Chemically we are pretty much
sum total of our abilities translated into
alike, but in personality very diff
ferent. There is no easy road to q
happy, healthy personality but it is
possible for each of us to develop ours
but it takes time and effort. Heredity
experience, reading, genuine interest in
people and things, attractive appear
ance, good manners and poise, good
| physical and mental health-all of
these things count. Personality should
not grow old and should mellow with
maturity.-(Mrs.) Belle o. Fish, family
relationship specialist, University Farm

enough understanding of a young child's
need of peace and an orderly routine.
If the two could only meet, in their
plans, about halfway between, what a
wholesome setting would be createdl
1t is not only entirely unnecessary
to subordinate the needs and desires
of everyone in the family to those Of
the baby. it is unfair to him to give
him such start. 1t won't always be
possible to control conditions so that
he has an absolutely quiet place in
which to sleep Why train him so that
he will be unable to adjust TO the
ordinary noises of a household? OF
course it is a good idea to have a baby
sleep as far away as possible from
the telephone, the doorbell and the
radio, but he should become accustomed
to sleeping under everyday and normal
conditions.
On the other hand, to expect a baby
to submit to the whims of adults who
want to show him off to their friends is
too much. Young children develop best
in an atmosphere of serenity and calm.
To be much in the company of older
people is putting a great strain on a
child. The overstimulation of music,
laughter, and noise, especially in the
evening, when child should be having
uninterrupted sleep, is likely to result
in a nervous, easily upset child, who
is emotionally unstable and crotchety.

GULL" POCKETS is SPRING
DRESS FASHION NOTE.

Not the politicians promise of full
dinner pail, but the fashion slogan,
every woman'S pocket will be full"
identifies the spring of 1910. Women
and girls whose figures will allow
it probably will consider not one packet,
but at least two capacious ones in their
new spring dresses.
Manufacturers and designers have
already held their spring fashion open
ings in New York According to re-
ports, the 1910 fitted silhouette varies
little from last year, but the big poe
kets anchored on hips or suspended
from waistlines carry the message Of
new spring.
Knapsack or saddle and plain patch
pockets are the thing for the more
tailored dresses. For novelty there are
cornucopia -shaped pockets. Destined
to be beautiful as well as useful, they
are trimmed with embroidery, ruffles Or
ruches-Alice Linn, clothing specialist,

READ THE DRUG LABELS
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY.

Whether DR.. Cure-it's little sugar
coated pills are really a cure-all or an
end-all to your life problems and
whether pounds will actually drop away
if you use Aunt Susie'S "Streamlining
compound" is now an open book to
those of us who read the labels on the
containers.
In keeping with the provisions of the
new Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act now
in effect, some manufacturers have
found it necessary to re-write their
labels to give the consumer accurate
information about their product. The
new act makes it possible to prevent
distribution of drugs which are danger
GUS when used as directed" 1t hap
pens that many of these drugs affected
are pain believers and obesity cures
Until this new law was passed, there
was little or no protection for the con-
sumner unfamiliar with the effect of
dangerous drugs-even though the
presence of that drug was stated on
the label-Inez Hobart, nutrition spec

Two recently reported incidents des-
cribe the different extremes to which
two families have gone in their efforts
to set up a good environment for a
young child. In one home this is the
procedure. AS soon as the baby is
put to bed, the activities of the whole
family are huShed. No one plays the
piano or radio, although the child
sleeps on the second floor, and the
house is fairly large. If friends come
in for the evening, mention is made
that the child is sleeping, and the
assumption is that no one will laugh
loudly-in short, the whole household
of adults makes an adjustment that
puts them out considerably.
In the second home, where there is
a good deal of entertaining, the baby
is often awakened and taken down.

the result is interrupted sleep, and fire.
quent awakenings even when there is
no disturbance in the home. When the
baby is awake, he is subjected to a
great deal Of attention, is constantly
stimulated, taken up and talked to- or
jounced on someone's knee. His hours
for sleeping and eating are somewhat
irregular; if he is asleep when it is
time for his bottle, the time for feeding
him is put off, especially if taking him
up and attending to him interferes
with something that is going on-if a
family meal is in progress, or the
mother is busy with something she
doesn't want to leave.
Both these families are devoted to
their babies, but they have not taken
enough thought as to the best con-
ditions for baby's growth. In the
first, the whole routine of the family
is set around the fancied needs of the
baby. In the second, there is not

Can fruit coIoring be used to give

Can fruit coloring be used to give
a chocolate cake a red color?
1t is unlikely that you would get a
red chocolate cake by using red fruit
coloring A red color is simply the re-
suit of chemical action between soda
and chocolate. An excess of soda gives
very red cake. Many people, how
ever, object to a pronounced flavor of
soda and prefer less red cake, if color
is to be obtained at the expense of the
flavor. There is some difference in
color as between different brands of
cocoa or chocolate.-Ina B. Rowe, ex-
tension nutritionist.
How long should dairy calf be left
with its mother?
There are several advantages to re-
moving the calf as soon as the cow has
licked it dry. 1t will learn to drink
much faster and the possibility of the
calf taking too much milk will be elm
mated, especially if the COW is an "easy
mixer" An overlooking of milk might
cause digestive disturbances with seri-
GUS results. The COW will worry less
about the calf if it is removed early
Of course, care must be taken to see
that the calf gets some of the colostrum
or "first milk" since this has a tonic
effect and starts the digestive tract
working properly.-H. R. Searles, ex-
tension dairymlan.
If I plant and care Off an acre of
trees as a All Forestry Project this
year on our home farm, can my father
earn Agricultural Conservation pay
ment on them under the 1910 farm
program?
Yes, there would be no objection to
this, in fact it will be good partner
ship arrangement provided your father
shares the payment with you. The
state Agricultural Extension Service en-
courages All members to carry pro-
jectS that will benefit the entire family
whenever possible.-T. A. Erickson,
state All Club leader.
How do you keep meringue from
shrinking?
Meringue usually shrinks because of
incorrect beating of the egg whites or
incorrect baking Beat in the sugar
until it piles well, using / to level
tablespoons to one egg white. Spread
over the pie, making sure that it
touches the crust all the way around.
Bake in slow oven about 1875 degrees
for Is to 20 minutes. This cooks the
whites thoroughly and gives a firm
meringue-Ina B. Rowe, extension nu-
tritionist.

STEEL WOOL, VINEGAR
ARE STAIN REMOVERS.

Seeing bright new aluminium pots and
pans slowly discolor and darken is one
of the things that takes the joys out of
housekeeping. Use fine steel wool for
securing out the spots and stains.
Easier yet is to add weak acid, such
as vinegar, to the water and. heat it in
the pan. Try little vinegar or lemon
juice along with the steel wool and
soap for securing the outside Of the pan.
If this is not successful, better give up
worrying about it.
Equally disheartening as stained
aluminium is wax from the holiday
candles spilled on new linens. The wax
can be removed. Scrape it off with
the blunt side of a knife and place
blotters both on top of and underneath
the stain Pressing with hot iron
will melt and remove the stain. Grease
remaining in the material should be
removed by sponging with carbon tetra-
chloride or some other grease solvent.

moved, alcohol or peroxide of hydro
