TANTRUM CURE.

From Mrs. E. J. S., Falls Church. J
Temper tantrums can be elimi-
mated in hurry by ignoring them
If the child is at home, the best
treatment is to put his pajamas on
no mean task with a kicking
screaming child, but it can be done)
and put him in bed for short time
leaving him alone. 1t Is amazing
how soon the spell wears of if there
is no audience. We only had to dc
this twice with our 6-year-old boy
and the mere threat of bed ended
any contemplated tantrum.
The 3-year-old would stretch out
on the floor kicking and screaming
simultaneously butting his heac
against the wall. We'd walk out
and leave him alone in the room
where he staged his exhibition un.
til he quieted down. After a few
fruitless attempts to "bulldoze" the
adults he gave up, too.
We were concerned about the dis.
plays at first and consulted oul

schemers were not apt to injur,

Dorothy Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: I am 4 high
school girl, bothered about a lot OF
things that don't understand, I
would appreciate it greatly If you
would help me form a conclusion
by stating your opinion in answer
to the following questions: Cd Do
the boys and girls of today actually
have. more privileges and advan-
tages than our parents did IS years
ago? Cd Are our desires, ambitions
and attitudes much different from
theirs? 90 Do we face the prob
lens that confront us now as well
as they faced theirs? % Are we
more concerned with pleasures than
they were? JOYCE,
Answer-O The youth of no age
have ever had as many advantages
and privileges as the youngsters of
today have. The poorest boy and
girl cannot only get a free educa-
ton as good as they will take, but
they can be taught, without cost, a
trade or profession that will en-
able them to be self-supporting.
Youth has also been emancipated.
You have privileges of which your
father and mother never dreamed.
You can have dates, 60 about un-
chaperoned, work in an once, make
your own money, all as q matter of
course, but If your mother had at
tempted to do any of these things
when she was a schoolgirl, she
would have been the talk Of the
town.
CD Human nature doesn't change
much. Every young girl desires to
be pretty and desired by men. Her
chief ambition then, as now, was
to get married and have q home
and children.
80 I think the modern girl faces
her problems with just as much
courage and more common sense,
because she knows more of the
world than her mother did when
she was the same age.
% I think everybody, young and
old, thinks more about pleasure
now than they did in the past. And
that Is a good thing. 1t keeps them

Lots Of people who live In modern
houses have the right answer but
the wrong reasons for their ap-
proval. At least those We asked
said yes" when we asked them If
they like their stream-lined houses:
but none Of them seemed to care
much about the efnciency and the
fanctionalism OF the slick up-to-date
designing, none Of them seemed ex-
ercised about the easy-to-dust an
giles.
No, 1t seems that the real lures Of
the modern house are those wonder
ful glass walls that make it seem as
II you are living In glass house
as II you were living out Of doors.
Even bad weather has drama and
thrills when you. can watch 1t from
your snug vantage point inside your
glass house. One woman even re-
fused to be upset by the idea of the
brushed aside airily, "Oh, I don't
mind. Besides in the postwar world
with al that air conditioning, things
won't get dirty anyway, or II they
DO, thereW be some kind Of magic
to cope with all that"
One Of the most exciting modern
houses we've seen lately L. q re-
modelled Colonial, the home Of
Baroness Hilla Rebay. curator Of the
Museum Of Non-O Objective Art, spon-
sored by the Solomon r. Guggen-
helm Foundation. Barness Rebay Is
now putting on the Kandinsky me-
mortal show on non-objective paint
Ing and Is a painter and designer
herself, SO she planned the altera-
tions Of the house and decorated it
herself.
But though she is an exponent of
non-objective painting (the kind of
art that glorifies form and color
without focusing on anything spe-
cific), there's nothing non-objective
about her home. It's beautiful
comfortable, gracious and makes a
very specific point of good living.
The living room is enormous, the
the result Of knocking out parti-
tions with grand abandon. It is cli-
NAKED by huge window wall that
turns the corner and reveals
view from the other side so that
there's another exposure also to be
seen. This glass wall extends from
the floor almost to the ceiling and
overlooks So varieties of different
trees, many Of them rare specimens.
The walls here are white, the
floors in gray and white rubber with

newest wrinkle among those who are

newest wrinkle among those who are
nimble with their needles-and their
imaginations- is to whip up frothy
little cocktail and dinner hats that
are the last word in flattery and
feminlnity. It's all very easy, they
tell us. You simply buy two yards of
2 or 3 inch ruching and work it
around 4-inch disc from the outer
edge to the center. Then you dot
tiny bows Of velveteen or satin
among the fluff. The base itself is
one OF these discs with wired circlet
to secure it to your skull and the
ruching can be had at trimming de-
partments. The ability is all up to
you. Just think what fun it would
be to try one of white ruching with
bright bows of kelly green or shock
ing pink. well, It's an idea.)
