Allow Child
To Express
Thoughts
Creative Efforts
Are Not Foolish
Waste of Time
By Leffice Lee Street,

At an early age children give evi-
dence Of their natural tastes and
talents. The very small boy may
shout with Joy when he sees truck
or stretch out eager hands toward
brightly colored light, ignoring
the automobile, all this according
to which Of the two objects appeals
to him the most. I believe that such
preferences should be noted and en-
couraged.
The imaginative, artistic young
ster who may suddenly feel the urge
to express his child thoughts In
verse should not be ignoredaor rid
iculed. As n matter Of fact 1t is
stupid and cruel to ignore or ridicule
any effort q child makes. Even
though the parents Of such q child
may never have written a line of
poetry in their lives or cared about
reading the works of others they
should not attempt to stifie their
artistic child's desire for self-ex-
preston.
Because a youngster wants to
write, paint or dance does not neces-
sarily mean that he will grow up
to be a poet, painter or dancer, but
his natural inclinations are a def
mite clue as to the type Of mind he
owns and to the sort of education
that will most helpfuIly 1T him to
take q practical place in this work.
aday world.
On the other hand artistic par
ents are sometimes dismayed and
confounded when they discover that
their pride and Joy does not care
whistle about symphonies or ia
nous paintings.
What is the use Of trying to make
a poet out OF sturdy little elec-
trician? What Is the use Of wasting
money and precious childhood hours
in long piano practice for mechan-
ically minded young fingers? In
stead 1t seems to me to be much
more sensible to accept our children
as they are. They have a right, as
people, to their own tastes, and these
should be nourished and praised.

arguments. Can you help us to
straighten things out and return
once more to the days when we
were happy together?-JIM.
ANSWER-Perhaps you are right
and your trouble is the result of
your wife falling under the baneful
influence Of the bossy lady. So why
don't you move and get her into
better environment?
1t Is undoubtedly true that the
women who henpeck their husbands
are proud of their achievement and
boast Of it to other women. They
tell you how they don't let" their
husbands do this, or that, and how
they make" their husbands do as
they say about everything until they
often cause young and inexperienced
wives to think they themselves are
showing lack of independence, and
that they should f1out their hus-
bands wishes and emulate Mrs.
Fuehrer's tactics. Which naturally
brings about arguments that don't
tend. to make peace in the family
unless man happens to have the
disposition Of worm.
But, on the other hand, inasmuch
as you admit to being set in your
ways and determined to do as you
please, perhaps the reason you and
your wife do not get along better
together is because you tyrannize
over her, and she may not like that
any better than you like being
bossed. Undoubtedly most family
quarrels start in the struggle be-
tween the husband and wife to be
the autocrat of the household. Each
Is determined to rule or ruin, AID
the end is generally ruin.
Since you and your wife are both
intelligent human beings, why don't
you sit down quietly together and
discuss your differences and try to
arrange a compromise of them?
You make out a list of what you
consider your rights and privileges
and another list of the things she
does to which you object. Also
make out list of the topics over
which you always fight. I am sure
If you do, you will find that they
are so silly that you will laugh over
them instead of going into Mysteries
about them. And, too, that you will
agree on the terms on which you
can arrange truce.
Quarreling is a bad habit that you
can break yourself Of If you will use
little self-control. And you might
do that for the baby's sake If not
for your own.

Easter Dinner
May Follow
Tradition
Cannon of Bacon
Favorite Choice
In Old England
By Edith NJ. Barber

Most of us choose our Easter din
ner from the foods which are plenti-
full at the season. The changing
date of Easter influences this fact,
although in these modern days we
always have plenty Of foods which
symbolic spring.
We are not bound by hard and
fast traditions in the celebration of
Easter as we are In regard to
Christmas. In many European coun-
tries Easter lamb" must be served.
In others ham is chosen. In old
England a huge Cannon Of bacon
was the Easter choice and this may
have been the predecessor of the
modern baked ham. With it came
corn salad, which Is much like the
tender field grass which we are be-
ginning to see in market. We would
probably not care for the tansy pud-
ding which once was the traditional
dessert. Tansy Is a bitter herb which
contrasts with the sweetness of the
pudding itself.
Rich sweet breads have always
been tied up with the celebration
of Easter. The hot cross bun, which
was once reserved for Good Friday,
but which we now see in our baker,
les all through Lent, was evolved
centuries ago from an unleavened
bread marked with a cross which
was eaten on Good Friday.
Buns and loaves, rich with sugar,
butter and eggs, are elaborately dec
Grated with Easter symbols and are
still to be found in bakeries in the
foreign sections of the city. I will,
of course, be making loaves of Eas-
ter bread, painted with egg yolk,
which develops a rich mahogany
shade during baking.

print with sleeveless jacket which
has side snaps instead Of hooks.
Still a third looks like a two-piece
print suit with detachable peplum
sash, which. needless to say, Is ad-
Unstable. You can see that the de-
signers Of maternity fashions have
not been idle, nor could they be
judged lacking in imagination.
In dinner frocks, adjustable waist
line features also are to BET found.
Just to point out what we mean,
there's a black crepe gown with ac-
cordion-pleated skirt and elasticized
waistline. Another, in brown crepe,
has a front panel Of gold color which
snaps where you want and need 1t.
No matter what type of dress or
suit you choose for your "dimcult"
figure, remember that it's important
to place emphasis above the waist
line. This can be accomplished with
wild" hats-the sillier and more
diverting, the better. Frothy collars
and interesting lapel pins also rate
high as "eye catchers"-and they
are fashion-right this season as
well. Be sure to present as complete
a picture Of meticulous grooming as
possible, for it's more important at
this time than at almost any other.

It's like a breath of home atmos-

boys open a box of good things

Why
GrowOld?
By Josephine Lowman

A thin neck and chest and
rounded shoulders are trials to
many women. In the first place,
the woman who has these figure
faults Is likely to be underweight
also. If this is true, a gain in weight
will help.
Things that will help If you want
to gain in pounds: Plenty of sleep,
avoidance of the hurry or worry
habit, mild exercises, five small
meals instead of three large ones,
rest before meals, generous amounts
Of cream, butter, nuts, eggs and milk
In the diet. Also, one should have
plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables
for ones vitamin and mineral con-
tent and vitamin B complex taken
on the side.
Many times we see women who
actually are overweight or just the
correct weight who have necks,
chests and upper arms that are too
thin. Often they wish to reduce
the hips and gain in the chest and
neck. Exercises are great aid in
this problem. The one given today
will fill out the neck and chest and
straighten the shoulders.
Stand erect with the feet a COM
Portable distance apart. This can
be done without lithe-line but is
particularly effective with it. Grasp
the lithe-line, one end in each hand.
Bend the elbows, touching the
fingers of your two hands together
in front of the chest. Now
straighten the elbows, stretching the
arms sidewise, shoulder height. AS
you do this, turn the head to the
left. Bend elbows and touch fingers
bringing the hands together again
in front of the chest and turn head
forward. Continue stretching the
arms sidewise as you turn your
head and then bring the hands to-
gether as the head comes forward.
Turn head first to left and then to
right.

find everything from slacks to din
ner gowns in the maternity depart
ments, and although the average
woman finds an extensive maternity
wardrobe something Of an extrava-
gance, almost every mother-to-be
needs a dinner dress as well as
several street frocks.
Among the latter, there are any
number of charming and practical
styles. For instance, q gay print
dress with a wel-tailored top has an
exceptionally well-done drawstring
waistline and front gathers. Best Of
all, it's launderable fabric, max
ing 1t ideal for summer wear. Other
bright prints have elasticized gath
cred waistlines which are comfort
able and not too obvious. Sometimes
this elastic is done as a center band;
in other frocks it's divided to give
you an effect Of gathers on either
side OF the waist. incidentally,
there's a polka dot model with this
divided elastic that's strictly super"

and cuffs.

of carpeting would be best? We
thought we might get sofa that

have accommodations for out-of-

hogany end tables be more suitable
than lighter woods? In case we
have to recover the pieces, what
type and color would be best? We
have a small baby, so anything we
buy will have to stand wear ana
tear. Also, what could be done about
a lamp table that has a large white
ring in the center caused by mois-
ture? Would clear varnish Ak it up?
A. T. F.
Answer-Your first problem is to
get furniture which is right In scale
for your apartment living room and
serves the purpose you have de-
signed for 1t. If 1t has been used
you may as well figure that you will
have to slip cover it, so concentrate
on shape and size. Then slip cover
to build in" the gayety and color
that you want, and use washable
material. The new fabrics are full
of color and the f1owered styles with
striped ones repeating the color will
bring life into the whole room and
transform old and unrelated pieces
into an harmonious whole. Don't
spoil the colorful effect of the room
where you need sunlight by turning
it into a drab background in your
attempt to be practical. Slip covers
are tubbable and may be dry cleaned
easily, draperies also may be made
of washable fabrics, so I suggest that
you hven the room with light and
bright colored fabrics which may be
laundered when necessary.
A tone on tone" carpet, that is,
one shade, such as light tan, laid on
a deeper shade, would be most prac-
tical as well as colorful. A few
pieces of light wood furniture might
brighten the whole room, especially
as you have dark woodwork.
