One Voice

was some soused mackerel in the
pantry that an aunt brought for
grandpa. When mother was out In
the afternoon, grandpa felt he
wanted a snack, so he got out his
mackerel and gave Sonny some.
Mother returned just in time to
find Sonny wiping his mouth, and
the smell of soused mackerel gave
the culprits away.
How could you, father? Sonny,
you know you can't have flsh."
GRANDPA gave it to me-" said
Sonny smartly.
Yes, I know he did. And let me
tell you, Sonny, that the next time
I know you to disobey my orders,
I'll spank you well-no matter who
told you or who gave you what.
Now remember. And you can go
to bed right now for you're going
to be good and sick"
Well, what can one do? There
should be one voice in the family
at a time to which children listen
and which they obey. but that's
an ideal situation and most Of us
can but hope to reach 1t.

By Angelo Patri

Children are easily confused
when more than one person directs
them. They also are very quick
to take advantage of the confusion
of orders and select those they
prefer. If mother says mo and
father says yes" they will do as
father says. That ends in dis
obedience and cool disregard OF
both parents.
A father and mother should
agree between themselves on the
policy they shall adopt in relation
to the children and stand by it.
Because the mother is with the
children during the day, as usual
thing it is she who is in charge
of them. She will refer some mat
ters to the father-usually IN pri-
vate and there will be no conflict
of policy nor of directions. When
a child goes to his father to ask for
a privilege, his father usually asks,
What did your mother say?" and
after the reply, Then why come
to me?" When that is the practice
there will be no conflict, no con-
fusion in the children's minds as
to whom they shall obey.
Parents are not the only ones
concerned with the children, how
ever. Sometimes conflicts arise
because a relative speaks out OF
turn. When an elderly relative
lives in the house with children
it seems to be difficult for him tt
understand that he is not response
BILE for the children. Thus he il

he is left in charge of them for

trouble for everybody.
Sonny had an allergy to certain
foods-flsh among them-so he
was not given any and his mothel
tried to avoid serving it. There

Mirror is no longer confined to
the looking glass. Now mirror
panes cover all visible surfaces of
commodes for the bedroom. liv-
ing room, dining room or foyer,
including dressers, lamp tables
and bedside tables. AS shown
above, they also form handsome.
washable tops for coffee tables.
The glass for these pieces of fur
niture is softly smoked to pro-
duce subdued CLEAN which is
easier to live with than regular
brilliant mirror.
Some of these pieces were in
troduced at a press showing held
recently. However, they may be
secured through local store or
ordered through an interior dec
orator.
Each piece is designed to high
light an important section OF a
room with the subdued glow OF
charcoal mirror, which
achieves an air of elegance or
emphasizes modern lines. Some
of the designs are enriched by
delicate, hand-etched motifs cut
into the back of the glass to leave
the front free of dust-catching in
cisions. You'll find in most OF the
furniture wood is used sparingly
and most is in black lacquer and
gold finishes or, as in some cases.
a combination of the two are
used.
Typical of the versatile but
large pieces Is a double dresser
that can also serve as buffet IN
the dining room or even as a
commode in the living room. 1t

mirror on the front and sides.
This unit is approximately 66
inches long, 81 inches deep and

The Chinese influence is promi-
nent in black lacquer coffee tables
with smoked mirror tops. One OF
the best-looking coffee tables we
have seen in many a day had an
oblong flower container recessed
into the sectional top. This con-
tainer is surrounded by individual
mirror panes that are framed by
black lacquer partitions. The
panes are not cemented in, SO in
case of breakage, only that par
ticular section would have to be
replaced. This table should &c

settings.
One Of the most conversational

diamond pattern cut into the
smoked mirror.
According to information we
received recently about a new line
of hosiery it will be novelty to
find a woman looking over her
shoulder to see If the seams OF
her stockings are straight. In
other words, wrinkled stockings
will be as old fashioned as the
crank telephones. This new stock

can easily be worn in four in
dividual lengths. BY a simple flip
of the wrist you can turn in the
extra folds and the stocking will
always be smooth and ready to
be attached to any garter length
Not satisfied with this, the manu-
facturer constructed nonslip

WhyGrow

This story deals with the dam

young woman which resulted in
loss of weight and health and
subsequent return to overweight
without the health.
Her letter continues:

caution other reducers to stop
when their figures are perfect and
then turn a deaf ear to all So

with rich food and would have
them fat again. 7 am so disguised
with myself and yet do not want
to endanger my health further.
II have a definite problem, as
I appear much fatter than my
weight would suggest, and I gain
very easily. However, I lose so
slowly, that even when I eat less
than ever, I lose less than I did
at the very beginning Of my slen-
derizing campaign. I lost eight
pounds the first week, but then
there were weeks when I didn't
lose an ounce. though I ate less
than ever before. Here are my
measurements in before after

PICK-A-BACK PLANT.

To Mrs. A. N. B.. Falls Church
In answer to your question o.
caring for your pick-a-back plant
the main thing is to give it plenty
of water. Keep the saucer under
the pot in which the plant i
growing filled with water all thu
time, especially if it is in a dry
not aired room. It likes quite
bit of sunshine but can do with
only a little if it must, but th'
main need is moisture. watel
mine a little at the top and oc'
casionally sprinkle the leaves. Blu
I keep the saucer full by giving
it plenty in the morning ane
again at dinner time SO it won''
dry out during the night.
Should it ever get really dry
by an oversight and leaves wilt
plunge it into a pan Of water
and, if not too far gone, it will
freshen up, though it might lose 8
few leaves in the process of re.
covery. I have a lovely plant anc
every one admires it.
After your plant has about II
or IL good-size leaves you car
start a new one by cutting off 6
leaf with plenty of stem and put
ting it in a pot of rich earth
right up to the leaf itself and ir
a short time it will start growing
from the center of the leaf, but
be sure the earth is up to the en-.
tire leaf, which should lie fiat
When the new growth starts the
main part of the starting leaf
gradually disappears into the
earth and the baby plant grows
quickly. but keep it wet. It grows
fast once it gets a good firm start
The leaves and stems are rather
brittle and break of easily, but
if any do get broken remember
they can be started for new plants.
Hope all this will be a help.

CHILD VS.. COVERS.

(Fron1 Mrs. E. L. H., ArlingtonJ
For Mrs. C. L. B.. Washington:
MY little boy, almost 2 years old
presented me with the same prob
lem of throwing off his bed covers
and clothes. The only solution ]
found, which is ideal, was not to
cover him. After making the bed
and squaring the corners OF the
sheet, tucking them in securely, I
pin each corner below the mat
tress. Then found the best sleep
ing garment is the flannel one
that covers him completely, with
the long sleeves and covered feet.
The lock snaps on these make it
impossible for a youngster to get
them off. With a child dressed
warm like this, there is no need
for covers and eliminates the dan
ger of the child getting tangled
into them during the night. This
method has been very effective
and proven itself as my little boy
has only had one cold in his life.

On the Other Hand
! Basic Reason for Labor's Demand
: For Repeal of Taft.Hartley Act

closed shop would be retained
but employers would be permit
ted" to notify union that 1t
needed some men and give the
union a reasonable opportunity"
to offer some qualified applicants
for the jobs. Presumably. that is
the only kind of a bargain on the
point that Senator Taft would
make If he were an employer and
he sees no reason why any en-
ployer should be allowed to do
anything he wouldn't do.
Welfare Fund Approach.
The same approach is revealed
in the matter of welfare funds.
Very large employers told the
Senate Labor Committee they pre-
ferred to have their welfare funds
administered entirely by the
unions; they wanted none Of the
headaches that went with the
operation. They based their at
titude on long and satisfactory
experience. Mine operators, con-
fronted with demand from John
L. Lewis for a welfare fund,
thought differently: they wanted
to help handle the money. So the
TIL law decreed Joint administra-
tion-which. incidentally. appears
to be working out badly in the
case of the miners. Senator
Taft's new proposal is that joint
control shall not be required II
the employer does not wish it.
The point made by labor Is that
the law should not attempt to
regulate the terms or conditions
under which welfare funds are set
up: that this is something for the
employer and his hired hands to
work out between themselves-in
other words, collective bargaining.
So the evil. or the error, in
the Taft-Hartley Act. as labor
sees it. Is basic. in that Congress
has given itself a seat at the
BARGAINING table and. not only
that. but a seat for the most part
on the employers side of the
table. That is why labor-or the
spokesmen for labor-will not be
satisfied until the law is rubbed
out.
When, and If, that is done, the
labor leaders say. it viii be time
to take up legislation concerning
national emergencies. political ac-
tivities and other matters not re-
lated to collective bargaining.
