DEAR MISS DIX. Do you think
that children should De spared the
burden of housework? l am the
mother of q large family and !
work from morning until night.
but hate TO ask my daughters TO
help me as / want them 10 spend
their time in play and pleasure
not in working. The hardships OF
life come soon enough and ! do
not want them 10 have the hard
life that I have had,
My husband says I am wrong
about this. What is your idea7
AN OVERWORKED MOTHER.
Answer: Well. I agree with your
husband. I think you are wrong
and that it would be better for you
and far better for the girls them
selves if you would let them help
you with the household chores.
For II you slave and let your
daughters go idle; If you do with
out everything TO give TO them, you
will not only make them selfish,
but you will teach them to put
you below themselves and they
will have nothing but contempt for
you.
Believe me, 1t is not the mothers
who work themselves to death for
their children and who sacrifice
everything for their children whom
their children admire and rever-

BY Josephine LOiCman
During ancient times some folks
believed that the hair was q sort
of condensed vapor, which was
thrown off by the brain. They
thought that the amount Of hair
and it's texture and color depended
on our thoughts and dreams and
instincts.
I suppose they believed that
many thoughts made much hair.
that q high temper and verve lead
to brightly colored tresses and
that mousy thoughts gave you
nousy looking hair. I guess the
curly-heads were supposed to be
a little daft, with all kinds of
tangled brain tracts.
We have long ago discarded this
theory but we do know that the
way our hair looks influences the
thoughts others have about us. So
much of what we hear about hair
care sounds complicated and yet
good care is really very simple.
1t should include cleanliness,
shampooing the hair very often
if it is oily and less often if it is
dry. There are splendid tonics
for correction of these extreme
conditions.
The normal scalp should be
massaged daily for greatest beau
ty and prolonged youthfulness.
Many salons give a very poor
massage. If any, scratching and
digging the scalp rather than
stimulating circulation with a
gentle rotary motion which causes
the scalp itself to move. Many
are also sadly lacking in training
when it comes to brushing the
hair.
You can massage your scalp
and brush your hair at home each
day. with lovely. results. When
you brush it point the bristles to-
ward the scalp at the base Of the
hair and then turn the brush up
ward as you sweep along the hair
toward it's ends. You will expert
ence q gentle pull at the roots.
Remember, too. that general
fine health. a mineral and vita
min rich diet and plenty Of sleep,
will have q direct effect on the
way your hair looks.

leaflet about hair send a stamped,

Not too long ago, lady sub
nitted her recipe for lamb mold
cake" to the Readers Clearing
House and following that many
interested readers wrote to inquire
where the molds for this cake
could be obtained. Several an
swers were received. but most OF
them were out-of- town sources.
However, q local store did carry
q few, but the demand was greater
than the supply so within lew
hours the stock was exhausted.
We were recently informed that
this particular store had just re-
eeived a new shipment OF these
molds, so we're passing this IN
formation along to those readers
who might still be interested. Inc
molds of cast aluminium are in the
shape of a lamb. Full instructions
on how to use the molds and the
recipe for making this attractive
cake are included in each pack
age. A> >cake of this description
would be just the thing for the
kiddies to enjoy at Easter. You
could also use it as an edible
centerpiece for a dinner party. it
is so unusual. You cover it with
shredded coconut. use raisln Tor
the eyes and nose, a strip OF
cherry for the mouth, and,
as the final touch. put a RIBBON
around it's neck. You'll find many
uses for the mold afterwards. for
other festive occasions. such. as
birthday parties.
The removable slat Venetian
blinds are proving to be sensa-
tional! The all metal head is COM
pletely enclosed which guards
against dust and dirt. They are
easy to handle; no mechanic is
necessary for the Stats can be re-
placed after cleaning in five min

from the entire slat for there are
no ends hidden behind tapes to
probe at. The tapes are invisible
from the outside and give un-
broken view from the inside. They
are available in colors. If you are
interested in new blinds. you can
call or send a card to this COM
pany for a free demonstration.

A Place of His Own

go when he is ordered out of the
way, when he feels he needs to
be by himself for awhile, as all
healthy children do.
Children who have a yard OF
their own to play in do not bother
their neighbors' lawns and gar
dens. They are soon taught to
stay in their own place and play
there. That in itself teaches them
respect for the property of others.
They soon get the idea that II
they want place of their own
they must allow other people to
have theirs.
All children, from the youngest
to the college student, need this
place. As they grow old enough
to have lives of their own they
need privacy-to think, to study.
to talk things over with their
friends. They require privacy for
their belongings, too.
Sometimes it Is difficult for
parents who have not considered
this side of family life to UNDER
stand that their children need
privacy as much as they do them
selves. The children have cer-
tain feelings, interests that are
precious to them and which
would bore their parents. They
know this. and so keep them to
themselves, sharing them with
their special friends. Parents
should accept this and not keep
asking, What were you talking
about? What did you have to
say that took you so long? Who
was that you were talking to just
now? What was that letter
about?"
Nature gave each child an in
stinctive desire to be himself in
his own place. It is for us to go
along with that idea and prepare
the children so that they can
live happily in their places. We
do that by training them to do
so from the beginning.
