Splinter. to the finals in Glendale
Saturday, he said Thursday.
First place winners in the track

second and third places will be
allowed to go because of exception
ally fast times.
Johnston came in second in the
lOO-yard dash and third in the 100
yard low hurdles at San Diego. His
time for the hundred, 10.7 sec, was
good enough to qualify him.
The Brawley C relay team, which
took second place at San Diego,
also qualified for Glendale but Nc
Intyre said the baton paSSerS would
probably not make the trip. John
Williams, varsity Splinter who took
third in the 220-yard dash, also
qualified for the finals but probably
will not go.
The three Winners-Ray Minter,
varsity miller, Keith Jones, 3 100
yard hurdler. and Bob Austin, 1920
/ specialist, are scheduled to leave
Brawley Saturday morning. The
opening field events are set for

TO take his three boys that qualified
Eddie Alarcon, B sprinter, Ben
Derrick, varsity hurdler, and Ken
meth Aduddell, pole vaulter. made
the grade at San Diego and are elig-
ible Tor the Self meet.
Alarcon was rated high on the
list of 100-yard dash entries sent
out by league officials because of
his 10.1 sec. performance. He is eX-
pected to do we'll at Glendale and
may win. Alarcon also won the E

Child Closes
Mind When
Disliked
Will Never Learn
Any More From
That Teacher
By A neeIo Pafri


Thought is a force, and 1t Is a vital
influence on the growth Of children
affecting their attitudes, their char.
acters and their general health
When a mother or teacher speak,
to a child he hears the words they
say, but he feels the thought behind
those words. 1t is the feeling that
reaches him, not the words.
We cannot deceive children. We
cannot hide our thoughts from
them. They know what we think
sometimes before we realize it our
selves, and they act accordingly
A teacher must like the child she
teaches or understand that she can
not teach him. AS most mothers
love their children there is little
danger of that situation arising be-
tween them.
Teachers have groups Of children
W tSdSAl az q AllCl1 AC1 NCs
are taxed; their minds are fatigued
they have no time for leisurely as
sociation with children. So it hap
pens that they must often speak In
tense accents, move abruptly and
speak sharply.
That will do no harm as long as
the teacher feels kindly toward the
child in question. He will respond
and understand. But let that
teacher feel dislike, repulsion, and
the child shuts his mind, retreats
behind a door that only love will
ever open. That child learns nc
more from that teacher.
Teaching, no matter who does it
no matter where it is done, Is nothing
more than a flow OF feeling between
teacher and taught. If that feeling
is kindly, it will flow freely between
mind and mind. The message is
sent and received, both ends work
ing smoothly. Dislike breaks the
circuit; impatience will block it; an
ger will close 1t.
Then don't speak when your mind
is filled with anger or impatience
or dislike. Get out of the child's
way until you can rid yourself OF
all bitterness toward him. until you
can feel the warmth of affection
and sympathy filling your heart,
until you like him. Then you can
speak and know you will be heard.
Children ask very little of US
They are happy with the simplest
food. the simplest clothes and the
barest of homes If they have af-
fection. They will work miracles
of growth under the influence OF
a mind that is full of love and
hope and faith for their best good.
They will shrivel and fade and
fail under the influence of dislike
or fear.
This is something for us all to
consider these days. Children are
looking to us for protection, for
help and guidance as never before
The first thing we must do Is to
fill our minds with affectionate re-
gard for them, with hopefulness,
with flrmness to do whatever we
believe right for their protection
and care.
What we think, what we believe,
what we stand for in our innermost
selves, is clearly spoken to their
listening hearts. We cannot deceive
them if we would and we do not
want to.

Summer Suits

Going to work this summer? Well,
lots of us are, and that means 1t
will be year for suits, in cool sum-
mer fabrics, smart and comfortable
in the hottest weather. New suits
are mostly stripped down" models,
partly because they are cooler,
partly because of the fabric short
age. First details eliminated are
collar and revers, which means the
shirt collar is worn outside the
jacket-effective when suit and
blouse are In contrasting fabrics
and colors.
Bonita Granville, shopping along
Hollywood boulevard, wore one of
these new collarless suits-a gabar-
dine in jungle red, the black and
white print blouse a pattern of
tropical ferns.
Lucille Bali also chose a collarless
suit of white cotton. the jacket
fronts cut high enough to eliminate
a blouse altogether. For color con-
trast Lucille wears a large kerchief
of gay print cotton, tanning out of
top pocket. Good summer substi-
tute for a heavy clip.

Why Milk Is
Dietary
Must
Helps Supply Body
With Phosphorus
And Calcium
Bv Edith NJ. Barber

IL IL ufb Ivl Il" OCf
Records show that the average
height of both young men and
young women Is greater nowadays
than it was a generation ago. This
Is probably a result of the more
general use of milk throughout the
growing period.
More significant, perhaps, is the
fact that round shoulders, pigeon
breasts and bowed legs are far less
common now than they once were.
The addition of fish liver Oil to the
diet of children, which has been
the common practice since the dis
covery of its high vitamin D con-
tent, Is largely responsible.
To construct the skeleton of the
body, calcium and phosphorus, which
are supplied in the proper proper
tions by milk, are essential. In
order that the bones may be formed
properly and calcium and phos-
phorus be utilized for this purpose
an adequate amount of vitamin D
is essential In summer the rays
of the sun contribute this. and
there is very good reason for the
modern custom of dressing children
in sun suits During the winter it
is only for a short time during the
day, from IL to 2, that the ultra
violet rays are in evidence. 1t is
too cold even at this time for bodies
to be exposed to the direct rays of
the sun.
Few natural foods contain vita
min D, and, if present, it is in
small amounts. 1t has, however,
been found possible to fortify Ger
tain foods, such as milk. with vita
min D, and by several different
processes. During each day chill
dren should have 400 units of vita
min D supplied by fortified foods,
by fish liver oil, supplemented by
! the rays of the sun.

cheaper a girls reputation, and
they ordinarily don't make her &C
quainted with desirable boys.
However, we'd be silly II we didn't
recognize the fact that in modern
cities, nice boys and girls do get
acquainted without being formally
introduced, and that worthwhile
friendships often develop from
these unconventional contacts.
In this particular case, it seems
to us that the belated worrying
about the pickup rule which you
two sisters are doing Is rather un-
necessary. Apparently, you hap
pened to run into a couple OF nice
boys who had merely gone to the
rink to skate, who saw a couple of
girls that appealed to them. and
who took the only means open to
them for getting acquainted.
Since then you have introduced
them to your mother, and she ap-
proved of them. Their conduct
since the initial promotion" seems
to have been quite proper. These
things are far more important than
the manner in which you first met
them.
If your mother has not already
expressed any curiosity on that
point, we think she's unlikely to
ask questions in the future. II
she does, tell her exactly what hap
pened, depending on the good i'm
preston the boys have made on her
to ease her pain. Certainly 1t would
be stuffy of you-not to mention
inconsistent-suddenly to stop dat
ing the boys now, after willingly
letting them make your acquaint-
ance in the first place, and then
giving them q date.
Which brings us back to the sage
observation with which we opened
this discussion. The purpose of the
rule against pickups is to safeguard
girl, to shield her from undesira-
BILE boys and to protect her reputa-
ton. In your case, you violated
the rule, but apparently you have
not suffered from any Of the dan
gers against which it guards you
Therefore, why worry? It's not the
rule itself, but the purpose beh<nd
it, that Is important.
Just remember that, although al
most any rule of conduct may occa-
sionally be broken safely, you can't
repeat the procedure again and
again and expect to avoid trouble.
The rule is still as sound as ever,
in spite Of the exception that
proves it.
