When they file separately on the
1040 long-form, with the income OF
each 5000 or more, each is allowed
q standard deduction of $500 for per-
sonal expenses.
If they file jointly on the long
form. they are allowed only one
standard deduction Of $500 from
their combined income, not $500
deduction for each Of them.
. But il one uses the long-form and
itemizes deductions, the other must

There's been q change.
This year, in the actual figuring,

Mrs. F. L. M. may have moved
here from the South, where corn
bread is made differently from the
North. First, the meal is different,
and then tastes are different. The
Northern corn meal is much coarser
than the Southern, the recipes call
for -four and sugar. The Southern
corn breads are made without either
flour or sugar and usually made with
sour milk or buttermilk. She can
get the Southern type Of meal here,
called water ground. The usual
recipe found in cookbooks around
here calls for the coarse Northern
type meal and made with the fine
ground meal does not turn out so
well. The fine ground is almost al
ways white, but the large markets
do carry the fine ground yellow meal.

about a month or 6 weeks old.
Take him to doctor regularly for
general supervision.
See that he lives in q home that
Is healthful.
Supply him with clothes that
keep him comfortable and give him
freedom to grow and to use his
developing powers.
Encourage his development but
never try to force him ahead faster
than he wishes to go.
Play with him.
Help him develop good habits.
See that he has plenty Of undis-
turbed sleep.
Keep him clean.
Give him as much sunshine and
fresh air as the weather permits.
Give him enough clean, good food,
at regular times.
Keep him away from all sick
people.
Make sure that he is given in
oculations to protect him against
dipntheria and smallpox (and
whooping cough and tetanus, too,
If the doctor so advises. Try to
give him a peaceful, happy baby
hood. This can best be done by
seeing that he lives in a peaceful,
happy family. :
Child care is a great art. It is an
important task, perhaps the most
important task any parent ever
undertakes. 1t Is now realized that
the parents have responsibility to
their child to see that he grows into
an adult who can use fully all the
talents and capabilities that he had
within him when he was born. And
this is also the responsibility of
parents to the community. The
father and mother share this job.
From the baby's birth they will
want to work together to see that
this most important Job is well done.

Children can be one Of the great
est satisfactions in life. They can
give their parents more happiness
and also more fun than anything
else. Around children develop many
home interests that keep the par
ents together and help maintain
their youth and their Joy in living.
OF course, the baby's physical
well-being cannot be minimized.
With the very young baby, this is
especially emphasized. But, In
safeguarding the future well-being
of the child, the main emphasis
today is on the relationships in
volved in living together in a
family.
Studies of children's behavior have
revealed that parents attitudes
and personalities and the way they
feel about their children play a
much larger part In the child's
healthy development than does any
set Of rules they may follow in bring
ing up their children. Emotional
maturity in parents themselves can
bring about the security and affec-
tionate understanding that must
underly sound and creative family
relationships.
To be secure in his world, little
child must feel loved and wanted
by both his parents and be sure Of
their love for each other as well
as for him. Both parents are I'm
volved In raising a child. The
father, though not generally in such
intimate contact with young chill
dren as the mother, has mo less
important a part to play in their
upbringing. A boy especially needs
the companionship Of a father even
early in life, and boys and girls both
will have more complete lives If they
and their fathers share a close COM
radeship. Moreover, close co-opera-
ton and mutual understanding be-
tween parents with regard to the
health and welfare on their chill
dren will encourage harmonious
family relations.
In order to help your children to
be healthy and have happy, useful
lives you will want to do many
things for each child during baby
hood, such as the following:

Facts Worth Knowing" in the back
pages seem very odd to us today.
Here are the recipes requested:
Lemon or Gold Cake: Two cups of
sugar, hall. cup of butter, the yolk
of 6 eggs and one whole one, the
grated rind and juice of lemon or
orange, half a teaspoonful of soda
dissolved in half a cup of sweet milk,
four cups of sifted -four, sifted twice.
Cream the butter and sugar, then
add the beaten yolks and the flour,
beating hard for several minutes.
Lastly, add the lemon or orange and
bake, frosting if liked. This makes
more suitable lemon cake than
if made with the white parts of eggs
added.
There are also separate recipes
for both a Lemon Cake" and a
"Gold Cake" but I took this to be
the one desired.
Queens Cake: Beat well together
one cupful of butter and three cups
full of white sugar, add the yolks of
six eggs and one cupful of milk, two
teaspoonsful of vanilla or lemon
extract. Mix all thoroughly. To
four cupsful of flour add two heap
ing teaspoonsful of cream of tartar
and sift gently over the cake, stir
ring all the time. To this add one
even teaspoonful of soda dissolved
in one tablespoon of warm water.
Mix 1t well. Stir in gently the whites
of six eggs beaten to a stiff foam.
Bake slowly. It should be put in
the oven as soon as possible after
putting in the soda and whites
of eggs.
This is the same recipe as the one
for "Citron Cake" only omitting
the citron.

grapefruit while the fruit Is whole.
Peel 1t deeply enough so that the
inside white skin comes of with
the rind. You then have a round
ball of grapefruit minus its rind.
Now cut into one side Of segment,
close to the separating skin, with
a firm downward stroke. Turn your
blade and come up on the other
side of that segment, close to the
skin. Now you have cut out perfect
segment free of all connective "tis-
sue." Continue the same way with
the other segments. All the con-
|nective skin is left behind, on the
fruit, which is now ready to discard.
Seedless grapefruit are easiest, but
the ones with seeds are simple, too.
There's no trick to it, when you
know how!

HISTORY OF GLASS
(From Mrs. G. S. w., Washington. }
In reply to E. M. KS inquiry re-
garding the history of glass.
There is wealth of material on
John Frederick Amelung (not spelled
Amalung) who established the New
Bremen Glass Factory in 1786, and
numerous illustrations of his en-
graved glass pieces in the following
text: American Glass" by George
is. and Helen NICK Kearin, Crown Pub
fishers. New York. This book also
includes brief discussion of Nicho-
las Lutz, who specialized in the tiny
colored paper weights in the shape
of apples, pears, cherries and floral
designs, and shows at least two
illustrations of his work.
I bought my copy at the Metro
politan Art Museum in New York
City, but it probably could be or
dered through almost any Of the
local book stores and may be on
file in the Public Library.
There Is also an article on Mich !
olas Lutz, including illustrations Of
an assortment of his paper weights,
written by Ruth Webb Lee, in the
August, l941, issue of the American
Collector.
If E. M. K. will contact me on
Atlantic 6837 almost any evening
I may be able to suggest other ref
erences, as early American glass Is
one OF my particular hobbies.
There are a number of books on
the subject by Ruth Webb Lee in
the Public Library. One shows a
picture of all the authentic pieces,
another features fakes and repro
ductions with considerable informa-
ton on how to detect these fakes.
The McKearin book above re-
ferred to was recommended to me
by the Metropolitan Art Museum
(Which houses an extensive collec-
ton of early American glass; as
one of the best on the subject. This
opinion was confirmed by a friend
Of mine Sc years of age, who has
spent most Of the years Of her life
collecting and is an expert on an
tiques. According to all I can learn
| the McKearins and Ruth Webb Lee
are the outstanding authorities on
early American glass.

with patterns are excellent. Prac-

We're willing to bet that even
