Finicky Appetite
Great Problem
To Overcome
Most Children Go
Through Stage;
Be Diplomatic
By Leffice Lee STREET.

Frequently mother WILL DeColne
alarmed because she does not think
her child is consuming the proper
amounts of vitamins, minerals, pro-
teins, carbohydrates and fats, or
rather, she has decided that his
diet is inadequate, and so her
anxiety reflects itself in her tone
of voice, her expression and her
handling of her contrary young one
Not eating becomes a problem IN
the household, the mother eXag-
gerates the situation out OF pro-
portion to it's true importance and
the child either secretly relishes the
excitement he causes or balks ike
a stubborn little mule because he
becomes angry, too.
Hardly a child lives who has not
gone through finicky stage. Mary
looks listlessly at custard, "a dish
she used to adore; she announces
that eggs taste funny, she turns a
diSdainful small nose away from
green vegetables, all the while slyly
observing mother from beneath her
long lashes. Bobby, for no apparent
reasons known to man, takes it into
his head that tomatoes have little
things in them that aren't good, he
wrinkles his nose just enough to
annoy his mother over string beans
and shepherds pie, sadly stating
that the potatoes are hard on top
and that Toms mother always has
ice cream every day.
This is the way children behave, at
one time or another, the world over.
The thing to do is to outsmart
such children. Supposing your
youngster suddenly dislikes milk. I
would suggest that you surprise him
by not offering him milk for week
or SO. Pretend that you have for
gotten all about 1t and entirely stop
trying to entice him to drink.
During this period include dishes
like this in his diet:
Rice puddings, bread puddings,
junket, cocoa pudding desserts, cot
tage cheese, cream cheese. cereal
cooked with milk, cream soups, po-
tatoes, spaghetti and macaroni
cooked in casserole with milk
creamed minced lamb, made with
milk, is tasty.
Mothers never succeed In making
child drink milk or eat disliked
food by any such obvious methods
as begging, scolding, bribing, etc
A reward is often a good trick, but
must be used very cautiously because
the goal is to lessen the i'm portance
of milk drinking in the youngsters
mind.

10 WORK late, ana Jhen take lou OF
lip from his fellows. Altogether a
sure fire way to antagonize friends
and repel people.
The feminine car pool is also
doomed to failure. The ladies who
have to have their morning cigarette
while driving to work are thoroughly
resented by the smokers in the
vehicle. The gal who insists on
doing all her shopping right up to
closing time, and taking pieces
of furniture home in some one else's
car is not endearing herself to the
driver or to the other occupant
whose precious nylons gets snagged
by the doll carriage being carried
home to little Mary.
And as for mixed car pools-well
it's tough enough for a man and
wife to stay pleasant to each other
after one member of the team has
been kept waiting by the other. So
what can you expect when casual
acquaintance are confronted by the
same situation?
But to get back to the pickup
| rides" question. 1t seems, from re-
| ports, that women are very averse to
| accepting a ride downtown with a
lone man, even on the way to work
in tie dim and unromantic dawn.
Ihat Is. perhaps, understandable,
but we hear that a great many
refuse to ride even when there is
another woman-usually the drivers
vile or sleter-also in the car. That,
it seems, is carrying caution too far.
Such timid souls should be left with
out a qualm to the exigencies of bus
or streetcar.
Other young ladies are delighted to
accept any invitation to a ride down
toWn-but, we are told, repay the
courtesy by such unethical perform
ances as asking f1ocks of personal
questions, trying to make a date
with the driver, chewing gum loudly
and annoyingly. smoking heavily
with a great disregard for the burn
ing cigarette ash and possible dam
age to upholstery, and talking
mile a minute the entire trip.
Men, too, are said to be guilty of
too much talk, careless smoking and
disregard for the car owners feel
ings in various ways-but the con-
sensus is that women are the greater
offenders. This puts the feminine
car-sharers in a mighty poor light.
There is no doubt about 1t that
one of the greatest drawbacks
toward giving strangers a lift is
the fact that most people don't like
lot of chatter-especially early in
the morning. Men, as rule, are
silent lot at breakfast and for a time
thereafter, and to have to make
polite conversation is something
that bids fair to spoil the whole
day for them. If their passengers
insist on chatter they seethe with
resentment until the trip is ended.
And the same thing holds good in
the case of the quiet passenger. He
is loath to accept ride for fear that
the driver of the car will invade
his privacy with questions and up
set his morning meditations with
idle r'1it-chat.
The war is bringing us all a lot
closer together and is making many
of us exhibit community spirit
that we have never known existed

length is the usual, but if you don t

roses at the neckline and waist.

Plum Pudding
Time Is Here
Once More
FavOrife Dessert
ToBe 'Dr0wned
In Rich Sauce
Br Edith NJ. Barrier

It's plum pudding time again.
We are not like the English, who
can enjoy steamed pudding wheth-
er the weather is warm or cold,
just so it has plenty of sauce.
My Christmas pudding is steam
ing away as I write this article.
There are two large moldS. each
of which will serve IL to IS and
there will not be too much even
after the turkey, which Is or more
guests always share with me on
Christmas.
Christmas dinner does not seem
complete without flaming pud-
ding arriving at dessert time. And
then there is the sauce. That's
fully as important as the pudding,
but you don't have to think about
that until later. Just don't forget
to have the eggs. cream or butter
and brandy on hand and plenty
of them because pudding to be
good must be almost drowned IN
sauce.
Some people like hard sauce
and some like a soft. My prefer
ence is for the latter, which is not
quite so rich. I have tried a va
riety of recipes, all of which are
good, but my guests all vote for
the Christmas eggnog sauce. In
the recipe given today you may use
y cup of honey to replace the
