gum, the child may be irritable OF
fretful and may not eat well, but
teething alone rarely accounts for
illness. An illness should not be at
tributed to teething until all other
possible causes, such as cold, an
abcess in the ear, and other diseases,
have been ruled out by the doctor.
It's becoming more and more re-
cognized among parents that it is
wise to 60 to a doctor to KEEP their
children WELL rather than to &c
to him only to cure illnesses that
might have been prevented. Besides
the regular health examinations,
the doctor will give the child pro-
lection against certain diseases, and
will tell the parents how to guard
against other diseases. He viii also
help the parents In guiding the
child's health habits.
The healthy child is active, alert,
and interested in everything. His
color Is good and his eyes are
bright. He's gaining In size and
weight. He plays vigorously. He Is
hungry at mealtimes and needs no
coaxing to persuade him to eat. He
does not have pains or aches. He
has regular elimination. His skin is
smooth, his muscles firm and his
body straight and strong. His teeth
are clean and in good condition.
The foundation for health is laid
In the first years. The healthy
child has the best chance of growing
into the healthy adult. The child
who lives a regular life and has
good health habits has the best
chance Of laying a good foundation
for future health.
The doctor. Every child should be
examined by doctor at least every
4 to months. II possible, the same
doctor should see the child. The
visit to the doctors office, or to the
well-baby clinic. should be pleas
ant experience. A child should be
taught that the doctor is his friend.
To tell the child "I'll call doctor
II you aren't good" is great mis-.
take. II the child is told in advance
that he Is being taken to the doc
tor. and what the doctor viii do, he
will usually be less fearful about the
examination. The mother might
say something like, Mother Will
Evening star., 1946-11-15

/ the best Of her ability.
The dentist. Young children as
well as older children should have
their teeth examined regularly by q
dentist. The baby teeth" need
home care and the dentists care
just as much as do the permanent
teeth.
From the time child is 2 years
old he should be taken to the dem
tist every months so that his teeth
can be examined and cleaned and
any small cavities filled or defects
| repaired. A child who goes to the
dentist from the age Of is not
likely to develop fear Of the dentist
or Of having his teeth fixed. II the
first few visits are only for inspec-
tion or cleaning. as is likely to be
the case, the child will often actu-
ally enjoy going to the dentist.
II a small cavity or defect is not
filled, the tooth will decay still
more. The child with sore tooth
tries not to bite on it and may avoid
coarse foods that need to be chewed
or may chew on only one side of his
mouth. The shape of the jaw may
suffer, from either lack of exercise
or loss Of teeth, and the permanent
teeth that are growing in the Jaw
may not have room enough to come
in straight.
Every effort should be made to
save the baby teeth. but they should
not be retained too long, for when
they are, serious defects aften de-
yelop in the permanent teeth.
Perhaps the most important teeth
In childhood and the most neglect
ed-are the 6-year molars. The g.
year molar is the sixth tooth from
the front on each side; there are
two in the upper jaw and two In
the lower. They are the first perma-
nent teeth to come through. These
teeth arrive some time between the
nth and seventh birthday, do not
take the place Of any baby teeth but
come in directly behind them.
II these teeth are lost, the other
teeth are likely to come In crooked
and the dental arch may be poorly
formed.

shirt can be ironed in five minutes
and that much Of the chore Of
ironing can be minimized by little
planning. I find that it Is largely
a matter Of how clothes are washed,
dried and folded. IF you use q
wringer, fold and run through it as
many hat pieces as possible. / find
LIT inpracticable for sheets because
of their weight. Also run the shirts
through with the collars fiat. In
hanging up the clothes, keep every
thing as smooth as possible, hang
shirts from the collar instead Of
the tail. I usually let everything
dry completely, except perhaps q
few pieces that can be taken down
slightly damp. Instead of rolling
up the clothes. fold everything neat
ly. Much Of the fiat work should
require only q few strokes Of the
iron. We use the sheets Just as
they are. My husband prefers his
shirts unstarched and they iron
nicely with no dampening. / think
that starch and sprinkling the
clothes slow up ironing considerably.
1t Is largely q matter Of choice as
to whether YOU prefer things done
with soft or crisp finish. but
they can certainly be done to look
really nice either way.
PRO AUTOMATIC WASHER.
from Mrs. II. s.. M, Falls Church. ]
Six years ago my husband in
sisted I get an automatic washer.
I'm ashamed now to say that /
felt the other type was quite all
right as the automatic washers
were considerably more expensive,
I could get along very nicely with
the push and tug and drain variety,
Frankly. I just didn't believe the
automatic washers could be all they
were said to be. But let me tell
you they are. Mine is the same
make as the Navy has on the
ships. There is great deal I could
say and explain about this washer
However, I would suggest to the
lady asking about the comparison
OF the two types of washers that
she go to dealer, get one Of the
booklets giving details about the
home laundry. read it and know
that all 1t says about the washer 4
true and then some.
|. Our automatic washer has cost
us about $500 in service over q
period Of 6 years. A service call Il
$3.50. have mine checked each
year, Just to be sure it is in proper
order. Outside of a new washer
for the door it has needed no part,
replaced. The firm that service,
these machines for Washington anf
vicinity gives excellent, prompt anf
courteous service. This feel is !
big factor to be considered wher
purchasing any equipment.
To be brief in some Of the high.
lights Of the points Of an automatic
washer, let ME name just few oi
the things that sometimes give
people the idea the automatic
washer Is more expensive to operate
than the ordinary type.

From Mrs. M. s. W., Washington j
We have purchased some apple
cider which was very sweet and the
way we liked 1t. Now It has be-
come little on the hard side. Can
any reader help us by telling us
how much "tartaric acid, to add
TO the cider when first purchased
SO 1t will retain Its sweetness? We
have three gallons.
. How do we get q good gloss on our
120-year-old Cherry chairs 10 IN
ALL. Our table was done for us.
We wish to do chair at q time
ourselves. Do we sandpaper the
old finish on and start q new? Is
there q book on this?
I am having my mother and
step-father here for one or two
weeks which will take In Thanks
giving Day. May have some
helpful ideas on entertaining them
while here? They have never been
to Washington before and I, Of
course, want to show or the city.
Any ideas on sightseeing by auto
mobile, streetcar or bus will be
greatly appreciated.
Here are . few suggestions ON
renewing Precipitation stains.
Dampen spot with water. Hold
over fumes Of ammonia bottle for
q few minutes. Materials that do
not water spot, dilute ammonia
with water to half strength and
apply q few drops directly to stain.
Rinse thoroughly. II fabric starts

For Mrs. s. E. c., Alexandria: ]

with mine at first and used quite
bit of shortening on the grill and
Of course it was always very hard
to clean. One day / read In q maya
zine the simple little trick Of using
salt. I believe it said to wrap the
salt In a cheesecloth bag and rub
over the grill before each batch OF
pancakes. But I just sprinkle the
griddle with salt and rub 1t in well
with q paper towel folded into a
convenient size. It works beauti-
fully and keeps the grill clean. !

and it still looks like new and, best
Of all, the pancakes do not stick.
However, you must use tablespoon
or SO Of melted shortening In your

care much for. It's the little sar-
castle letters that some one writes,
probably when they're In a mood"
about their dislikes Of this and that,
or another readers letter. And then
some one else has to answer that
letter. Couldn't the letters that are
bound to ruffie some one else just
not be printed? OF course, there are
lots of people who like a little
friendly CD argument now and then,

COLD WATER PAINT;
COMMENTS ON IRONING

From Mrs. w. r. B., Washington J
Answering an inquiry about using
water-mixed paint over wallpaper:
We have painted over our original
paper, not once but several times
using different colors and have been
very much pleased with the results
We have found q roller to be. the
easiest, quickest and smoothest way
to apply the paint. being careful
not to saturate it too heavily each
time. Finish corners, edges and
|around window frames with a brush
We have not yet had occasion tc
remove any of the wallpaper thus
treated.
Coming to the defense Of the fast
ironer, I back up the claim that q
