On the night OF Dec. IL a doctor
was called 10 the apartment of Mrs.
Cakes, who had been drinking heavi-

of morphine 10 put her 10 sleep.
At 11:10 the next morning, Trott

Cakes dead A preliminary examina-
ton showed bruises on her face and
there was blood in the bathroom.
Trott, who admitted he had spent
the night in the apartment, was taken
into custody pending investigation.
The medical examiner, who was
later corroborated by an autopsy,
said Mrs. Cakes died of fatty liver
and alcoholism. The suppos
bruises were discolorations due to
her malady, he said. Trott was freed

turning TO his New York hotel room.
His trouble was diagnosed that
night as stomach ulcers. Two morn
ingS later he was found dead.
DR.. Benjamin NJ. Vance, deputy
chief medical examiner, said an OK
animation showed two punctureS of
the abdominal wall that might have
been caused by a heavy fall or blow
while the stomach was full of liquid"
But police said the only admission
Trott had made was that he had
lifted a heavy filing cabinet a few
days before. That didn't seem very
significant The record concluded:
Cause Of death not positively de-
termined."

In the room the clerk found Mrs.

throat had been cut, her wrists
slashed, and blood was on the walls,
the washbowl, the floor and the bed

said her body was welter Of bruises

takes as her own the attention the
child gets. She mistakes it for
admiration, but I am afraid most
people do not admire child show
offs - nor their parents.
The worst offense these parents
commit is the harm they do to the
child. They lead him to expect
glory without earning it. He feels
all he has to do to get attention
is simply to be cute child - and
frequently he refuses to grow up.
They Fed Neglected
Also harmful is the attitude of
parents who show off child when
he is two or three but shift their
attention to the new baby when he
comes along. Or. take the parents
who stop making a public fuss over
the little girl who has reached the
gawky. lanky. tooth-losing age. The
child feels let down and betrayed,
and may easily turn to spectacular,
destructive ways of showing off -
face-making, swearing, and other
attention-getting tricks.
Even when parents have not
been unwise, child will sometimes
seek the limelight to excess. Then
we should find out why he never
feels he gets enough attention and
handle him accordingly.
In very many cases, an excessive
show-oi. - like the teachers pet,
the prig, the braggart, the snob -
is often a child who feels insecure
and is trying in wrong ways to win
the respect to which every child
has a right. The important thing is
to discover his real ability and help
him to earn consideration by that.
Sometimes you may have to
resort to trappings of distinc-
ton to build up his sense of
personal worth. Give him an
achievement badge. a bank account
of his own, or desirable possession
the others do not have.
Fxianis ShoulA Help
COMMON sense and understand
ing will help you to guide your
children through the show-of days.
1t would be nice if childless friends
and strangers would help. Usually
they don't. They're the people who
say: Isn't she cunningS while
their manner shows that they
think of child only as a source OF
momentary pleasure - not as
person to be taught to get along
comfortably in society. That. after
all, should always be right
thinking adults goal for any child.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1944-10-08
It's bad for children
and parents too. Here's
what to do about it.

CHownNG off is a natural human
~ impulse and it begins very
early. But it is not pretty trait.
So it is important to know how to
handle our children when they
begin their show-off antics.
At two or three little Peter will
probably embarrass adults some
day by making an appearance in
the nude. He is not being delib-
erately naughty and immodest. He
is just showing of. Peters parents
should neither severely suppress
nor should they encourage him in
this infantile behavior. Likewise,
when he learns some four
letter words, you should not
get excited nor make a fuss.
Ignoring such episodes is the
quickest way to make child lose
interest. One good method with a
small nudist is to let him run naked
after his bath. Then say: "Al
right, Sonny. you've had good
time. Now you must put on your
pajamas and get into bed"
Take Il Casually
The important thing is never to
let anyone make an issue of little
Peter in the nude, or using bad
words. Otherwise, he will think
he's discovered a really important
way to impress grownups.
An older child also shows off,
but about different things: a new
dress, a bicycle, good marks at
school. The teen-age girl who
boasts about her conquest OF boys
is showing ff in way to impress
other girls. All this is natural and
will normally disappear.
However, when child shows OH
excessively, something is wrong.
Either the parents have encouraged
him, or the child feels inferior and
is trying to make up for it.
Many parents deliberately put
their children on display before
adult friends. Perhaps they would
not exhibit their children so read
lily, if they realized that what they
are trying to do is to overcome
their own sense of inferiority. Often
it is not love but selfshness in
mother who displays her child.
