Manners
of the
Moment

Some women of my acquaintance
are always thrusting at me armfuls
of the fruit which their relatives
send them from California, or load
ing me down with the extra dozen
eggs which their friends on the
farm send to them.
In a way, it's very nice. But it
seems to me that this loading down
is always done at a moment when
my icebOX is already so full I am
distressed lest l can't get everything
eaten up before it spoils. And I
find myself faced with the difficulty
of seeming most ungrateful in refuS-
ing to accept choice armful of
edibleS or of leading an extremely
gluttonouS life for few days.
My suggestion to people with rel
atiyes in places where good edibles
grow is that the minute the box of
grapefruit or the crate of eggs ar
rives they telephone all their friends
and say. Now don't order any
grapefruit or any eggs for a day or
two. I'm bringing you over a batch" :"
Then a thrifty housewife could be
prepared And she'd love the gen.
erosity of her friend. JEAN.

When a child who is perfectly
agreeable most of the time has
tantrum at about the same hour
every day, look to his schedule for
the cause. He is usually a tired
child
One child got along well up TO
lunch time and then he was as
naughty a child as one could find
In a days march. He threw his
glass of milk off the table, he re-
fused to eat or to be fed or 10
go without his meal. He kicked
and screamed and would not be
comforted. This happened every day
about lunch time.
This child'S schedule called for
an hour and a half of play, bath
and dressing before lunch. When
his play was shortened, the bath
deferred, brief resting time al
lowed, his tantrum disappeared. HIS
old schedule was too tiring.
A little girl had a bad time every

from play. She lay down on the
ground and aroused the nelghbor-
hood with her yellS. She did not
want to 90 in, she did not want to
stav out, she did not want TO take
in her toys. nor did she want anybody
else to do so. She was given nap
after lunch instead of before 1t
as she had been having, and got
along much better. TantrumS are
often caused by fatigue.
| Sometimes they are caused by
physical ailments. A child with
earache loses his control early and
tantrumS are in order. Poor vision
tires a child very soon, and so does
poor hearing. Any child who shows
temper and irritation over nothing
important should be examined for
physical defects.
Children in good health, living
under harmonious conditions, do
not have tantrumS. These spells
of uncontrolled behavior are not
| lust a child's evil spirit exhibiting
itself. They are indications OF hid
den difficulties, and instead OF
Furnishing the child for bad behavior
we should search for causes and
remove them wherever possible.
In this search do not omit con-
sideration of the personalities that
are touching upon him during the
day. If there is any one who in
sistently commands him, try to re-
lieve that person of anv RESPONSE
bility for the child. If there is
anybody teasing or bullying him
frightening him or exciting him
take care of that person and re-
lieve the child from his attentions
Nothing tires a child so completely
and swiftly as personal pressure
from inconsiderate people.
Also. look at the atmosphere o1
the home. Is it the kind that make:
a child'S activity burden to him:
Is noise a crime, and disorder 6
sin? If so. the child cannot thrive
there. Is there fear and strain ir
the house? Is there diScord, scold.
ing and tears? Then realize tha
, the child will reflect that discord il
his behavior. Tantrums, rebellion
and ill health will be his lot anc
!, his parents burden.
A child is not hard to rear if ht
is given the simple attention hi
needs-a quiet, peaceful home, rou
tine care as to food, bathing, sleel
, and play. After that he can stane

Dorothy Dix Says go
Second Wife Naturally Resents
Comparison With Predecessor

Dear Miss Dix: Not long ago you
said IN one of your articles that the
average man expected his wife to
be compendium of all the talents
and all the virtues, and that when
ne found out that she was merely
a human being he was disappointed
in her. Well, there are women who
are feminine Admirable Crichtons
and l married one of them. My
wife could run my business when I
was i'll; sing a classic solo before a
crowd of 10000 people, playing her
own accompaniment; arrange a
radio program; drive car on a
cross-country trip and had many
other accomplishments as well.
After 20 years together, she passed
away. I know many good women,
who, I think, would give considera-
ton to a matrimonial proposition
from me. but l know that none OF
them would compare favorably with
my former wife. Under these cir
cumStanceS. do you think man
of so could remarry and be happy?
AISWbI-"Il6IIlcI SuCIl d IIld1
riage would be a success or not
would depend more on you than it
would on the woman you married.
If you expect to get a second para
gon for a wife. you would be bitterly
disappointed. because no man has
that much luck. And if you are
always going to be instituting in
vidious comparisons between mere
ordinary run-of- the-mill woman
and one who was world wonder,
you will make her life a martyrdom.
For there is nothing on earth that
a second wife finds so hard to en-
dure as having the first wife always
thrown in her teeth. so to speak.
The old adage about blessings
frightening as they fade is never
so true as in the case of deceased
wives, and many man who used
the hammer oftener than the salve
spreader on his Maria when she
was alive, ruins a perfectly good

second marriage by holding No. l
up as a model of perfection for
Mrs. No. 2 TO follow.
1t is Maria did this. and Maria
did that; Maria never ran up bills;
Maria used onions in her cooking
or didn't use them, until the poor
second wife wishes she had never
been foolish enough to step into
Maria's shoes.
And if the ordinary widower
finds it difficult to be content with
a second wife who does not come
up to the glorified and idolized
image he has constructed in his
Imagination of his first wife. con-
slider we'll how hard it is going to
be for you to descend to a lower
matrimonial level, and be satisfied
with wife who is just a mere
human being instead of a goddess.
SO don't marry again unless you
can take your wife "aS is" instead
of expecting her to be as your
other wife was. That's that. But
on the other hand, you may well
reflect that a second best is better
than nothing at all.
You are aging. You are lonely.
You need somebody to whom you
can say don't you remember?"
You need a woman to tend your
fireside and fuss over you and
nurse your rheumatism and be a
CHEEKY companion down the last
lap of the Journey, and if you can
find such a one think you will be
happier with her than without her,
even if she can't sing an aria, or
run a business, or drive a car.
Provided you are not always con-
trasting her with No. l.
And don't forget this-at go a
man hasn't so much to offer a
woman as he did in his 30s. He
isn't such matrimonial bargain
as he used to be, and he Shouldn't t
expect so much in exchange for
his wedding ring.

There seems to be considerable
discussion about the matching or
contrasting tie and breaSt-pocket
handkerchief lately. One school of
thought says they should match, the
other says that an agreeable and
compatible color difference is not
only welcome, but very smart.
To be perfectly frank about it.
there seems to be only matter of
preference to settle the question.
Except in rare instances. where a
white breast pocket handkerchief is
required, it looks like a do-aS-you-
please proposition. Some of the best
dressed r1en we know follow one
trend while others equally as sar-
rorially splendid swing in the other
direction.
If anybody has authentic word on
the subject. we'd like to know
about it.

Naturally, you have to be careful

a small. dark. inconspicuous flower
like a bachelor button it indicates
that you're a man who knows his
way around-at least around florists

larger flowers look as though you're
out for the queen-o -the-May title.

whole new set OF emotions and eX-'
periences. Their relations with their
own families. their friends and the
world in general are becoming in
creasingly complex. In some cases
frictionS arise, adjustments are
difficult and problems are created.
But a very large percentage OF
teen-agers pass through this period
without ever even realizing that the
terrific problems of which our COL
leagues are so conscious actually
exist. They are so busy with their
studies, their jobs. their school ac-
tivlties, their parties and their dates
that they simply don't have time to
sit down and get out the crying towel
over their own unhappy fate.
Furthermore. there are the joys
that compensate for these problems.
The tremendous kick gotten out Of
that first love affair: that first
evening gown; the first dance ever
attended; that first college prom;
the first permission to drive a car.
There's the thrill of class night. or
commencement. of that morning
when an employer first says, "All
right. you've got the job ~
Those experiences come only once
in a lifetime, and they come in the
teens. They have a special thrill
that is never repeated, no matter
how many more times one falls in
love. or gets a new job. or attends
another dance.
Many of the strains" of the teen
years are merely the efforts OF an
expanding personality to meet and
cope with new and larger problems.
Youth is energetic. idealiStic, am
bilious. eager for new experiences.
1t wants to meet these new prob
lens, and it fairly lives on the JOY
of solving them. 1t burns with the
desire to correct the Ills of the
world, instead of merely moaning
about them.
We can sit back and remember our
own adolescent years as just one
interesting and exceptionally thrill
ing period of life, instead of the
'sorriest phase of existence" We
wouldn't have missed them for any,
thing-and that goes for the prob
lens and the heartacheS. as we'll
