CHILD'S TASTES SHOULD
BE CONSIDERED

Are You Training Your Child
10 Re Happy asks one OF the
most popular pamphlets issued by
the L. s. Children's Bureau To
which question We should like TO
add-in his way or In yours? For
often one of lae most difficult
things 10 understand acout your
child Is how he can be happy in
such totally different way from
your own childhood idea Of a
good time.
You see. when IL comes 10 shar-
ing happiness We usually choose
friends with tastes similar to our
own We don't 20 off on a fish
ing trip with someone who loathes
country pleasures. we don't enjoy
going 10 the movies with a COM
panion who'd rather be home
reading book. and We don't
choose inveterate card players as
companions II we'd rather dance.
So we have little experience in
happiness outside our own brand.
Yet into your life may come a
child who doesn't at all take 10
the kind OF fun you used TO like.
We've all seen the very feminine
mother who Is aghast because her
little girl throws dolls about as II
they were blocks And the moth
er who has been a tennis or swim
ming star and is nonplussed be-
eau her son or daughter prefers
sitting alone reading, TO any
sports activity.
However, these are differ
ences in taste which usually
adjust themselves-most par
ents finally get used to won
dering what their children see
in the things they love TO do.
It's the occasional parent who
belittIes what the child nat
urally enjoys, or who worries
for fear the child isn't having
good time and treats him
as IL he were a vexing prob
lem who may block the child's
capacity for leading happy
life, either low or later on in
adult life.
For example. many quiet per-
sons whose greatest JOY is think
ing feel guilty all their lives about
ii because as children they were
called lazy or bounded about day

Cautions Of Safety
In Butcherinq Work

College Station. Raleigh. Dec. 81.
Recognizing the hazards in the
traditional practice of.farm butch
ering that frequently result in ac-
cidents. Prof. David 8. Weaver,
in charge Of Agriculture Engineer
ing for the State College EXten-
sion Service, asks that Tar Heel
farmers observe the simple rules
OF safety and avoid the usual run
OF butchering mishaps during the
present butchering season. z
Citing National Safety Council
reports that one of the greatest
causes OF injuries is falls due to
slippery footing. Prof. Weaver says
that ice should be removed and
ashes sprinkled on the ground
where butchering operations are
to take place. II the job is to be
done indoors. he recommends the
use Of sawdust or crushed rock salt
to help the footing.
Check hoists. he suggests. to he
certain they will hold the weight
that is to he placed on them.
Avoid weak ropes. worn pulleys,
and rotten tree limbs.
The following suggestions are Of
fcred for safer butchcring:
Keep all butchering knives in a
knife rack when not in use: kecT
knives sharp and handles In good
condition: observe all of the ordi
nary precautions with firearms
used for stunning the animal -
keep them unloadcd when not ir
use: use temper to force meat
into the meat grinder: and kccr
children away from all butchcrinc
operations.
Clean or mop up all grease from
floors Immediately: use extreme
care in handling the scalding wa
ter: whet knives away from body;
avoid strain from EVERYTHING: and
always cut or chop away from
your body.

Many Causes for Chest Pains
By STANLEY

Bronchitis, or inflammation OF
the small tubes in the lungs, may
be accompanied by pain which is
under the breast bone and is par
ticularly noticeable during cough
ing. Spasm Of the esophagus,
which leads from the mouth to
the stomach, may also cause pain
under the breast bone, but this is
accompanied by vomiting. In this
latter condition, diagnosis can be
confirmed by X-ray examination.
Persons who have had pleurisy,
which is inflammation Of the lin.
ing membrane Of the chest, wall
and lungs, have recurrent attacks
OF pain over the lower part Of the
chest. This pain may be severe or
II may be just an ache. Sometimes
1t extends downward into the
abdomen. The pain is made worse
by changes in the weather, or by
the menstrual period and nervous
and emotional disturbances.
Certain Chest Pains
Certain chest pains may actual
ly be due to disorders affecting the
organs within the abdomen, such
as gallbladder disease or ulcer Of
the stomach. A spasm Of the cor.
onary arteries, which carry blood
to the heart muscle, is a common
cause for attacks Of pain in the
chest
Because Of the many disorders
which are responsible for chest
pains, the patient should be care
fully studied when such attacks
occur. All the various X-ray and
laboratory examinations which
are available should be used 10 de.
termino the exact source Of the
difficulty because In each case
treatment depends upon the ma
ture Of the trouble.
