When a child oifends correct him
privately. The main support Of the
human spirit is self-respect and self
respect leans hard on the good
opinion Of the neighbors. The
thought of what the neighbors would
think, and say, of the loss Of friends
applause and affection, the feeling
that people we care for win be
shocked and displeased, keeps many
q weak spirit on the right road. 4
When child feels he has lost the
respect and the good opinion Of
people, especially the people he loves,
he thinks he has nothing left to
try for and sinks into depression,
listlessness and sometimes, rebellion.
Failure to win success makes some
children angry at themselves and all
those who know about him. He
fights back at the failure that dis
graced him.
Children should not be disgraced
when they make a mistake. They
should be taken aside, In private,
have their mistake explained and be
shown how to do better. Reprimands
that leave q child feeling lost are
certainly not helpful. What we want
to do Is TO strengthen and enlighten

him to feel the world Is against him
We are working harm instead Of
creating power.
Make matters Of correction private
matters, secrets between you and the
child and keep those secrets. Don't
tell Aunt Milly, don't tell grandma,
and never, never tell the neighbors.
Don't tell about children's mistakes
and laugh about them. Respect the
children's feelings, protect their self
respect, and 50 win and keep their
confidence. Remember, children will
not trust parent or relative who
tells their secrets, who shames them
before people.
Visitors often ask questions about
the children. Some people are really
interested and have no mean feeling
about other folks children, but there
are people who pry into children's
lives and are pleased to find some
thing wrong with them so that they
can feel that their own children
shine by comparison. Don't tell
visitors about the children's weak
points. Stress their good ones If you
must talk about them ut all.
Praise the children as often as you
honestly can, otherwise say Is little

High Style Right at Your Doorstep

In this machine day and age the
craftsman seems to have become a
forgotten man. But with discern
ing people the personal touch which
has been pretty much on the decline

desired, especially where clothing,
jewelry and millinery are concerned.
We've discovered that here in

high style as Is to be found in any

makes hats especially for you and
for the occasion. This shop, whose
two owners are both native Wash

match your hat to your suit, and
the materials with which they work
are magnificent. Velvets, satins,

The recent rise In the price OF
coffee has increased the interest Of
many housewives in ways to make
the most Of every pound. sugges-
tions on keeping and making are
offered By home economists Of the
United States Department Of Agri-
culture.
Keeping. Coffee holds It's flavor
best II kept tightly sealed. Coffee
that comes in paper packages may
well be transferred to tight tins or
Jars after it Is opened.
Leftovers. In many homes coffee
Is wasted by making more than the
family uses. Some housewives save
and reheat leftover coffee. Re-
heated coffee will not have the same
flavor as . fresh brew. II allowed
to stand for hours on the back Of the
stove or In Q warm kitchen. the
flavor Is distinctly inferior. A thrift
Ter practice is to make the amount
the family regularly drinks and
avoid leftovers.
Making. Careless measurements
and methods Of making account for
much Of the poor coffee served at
family breakfasts. Some cooks try
to stretch coffee by using skimpy
amounts and long boiling. This
gives dark, muggy, butter liquid.
Measurements. For the clear,
medium strong brew with fine flavor
and aroma preferred by most people,
~ to 2 level tablespoons OF coffee
Is used wieh each standard (8-ounce)
measuring cup Of water.
Temperature. Coffee should never
be boiled, but should be in contact
with water just under the boiling
point for from 8 to minutes and
then strained through a fine filter.
Coffee Makers. Many different
types Of cof1eemakers are now on
the market, but the maker is less
important In producing quality cof-
fee than right measurements, tenn
perature and good filtering.
Coffee Pot. The old-time coffee
pot can produce an excellent bev-
erage very simply If the coffee is
tied loosely in . cheesecloth bag
which serves as q filter. then put
into . pot Of water Just below boil
ing and held ut the temperature
about fiye minutes.
Drip maker. The drip method Is
ideal In theory but most drip makers
on the market have disadvantages
In some the coffee Is not evenly
exposed to the hot water. Many
do not have fne enough filters te
produce q clear beverage. Those
made Of earthenware or glass
usually have too large perforation,
In the coffee basket" Aluminium
can be perforated finely enough te
make q good filter. Many DRIP
makers require extra large measure
