By LILLIAN TIVE

read a quip the other day
that stuck in my mind, it went
like this: II am sure the Lord
knew what he was doing when
ne made it SO hard for us to pat
ourselves on the back" I was
under the impression some people
found it rather easy. At least
they spend q lot of time trying
I'm beginning to wonder II we
have lost the art of calm living.
During the war we got into such
q habit Of rushing here and rush
ing there, that we never seem to
have any time for leisure. What
are we in such q hurry about
anyway? We don't take time out
10 just visit, and the old open
house of the past is certainly
past. How many times last month
aid friends just drop in to visit,
and how many times did you 60
visiting? Not often bet. Aren't
we missing something by not
keeping up with old friendships.
see many of the flower lovers
in town are out cleaning out their
flower beds. It is q noble ambi-
ton, but q bit premature, I'm
afraid. Spring hasn't really
sprung yet. It's really only just
sucking it's nose out to look the
situation over before coming on,
and old man winter may stick his
tongue out at spring and freeze
those tender flowers.
Well girls, the stores are filled
with cotton dresses. It seems that
they felt spring was here las,
month and we whould be ready
to wear cotton. But we fooled
them and kept to our woolies. Al
least we got our moneys worth
out of our winter clothes this
year. Now lets hope we can do
the same for the summer ones we
are going to buy.

Norma Lee
COUNSELOR !.

Dear MIS-. Lee. !.
Our SON, age five, just can't
seem to tell the truth. He Let's
his imagination run wild and tells
the oldest things to everyone
We just moved here and he told
the neighbor children that ne
had q brother and sister. They
finally came over to play with
his brother and sister. and they
looked quite shocked when told
them that we only had the one
child. It il quite embarrassing but
I don't know what to do about
Il.
He Is always playing that he
has dog by the name OF JiggeI
and q chicken called Hanna. He
tells everyone that his father Is
a great big man. when he isn't.
Mrs. Lee, is he abnormal OF
what? We are worried and my
husband thinks we should take
him to q doctor, but we are new
here and don't know what doctor
to take him. to.
A Mother.
Dear Mother,
No, don't think your son is
abnormal. He just has an over
active. imagination. This is a
phase that all children pass
through. An only child in fam
lily usually takes longer to get
past that stage as he doesn't have
other children to introduce him
10 reality. When he gets into
school and has other companions,
real live people. he will find them
more satisfying than his imagin-
airy friends. It is q desire to have
friends that he can boss that
makes him say he has other bro
theirs and sisters. OF course you
play with him, but he can never
feel that he u truly the boss
when playing with IN adult.
The reason he says his father
is a big man, Is that his father
looks big to MIN. He hasn't reach
ed the stage where he compares
others 70 others. He now only
compares others to himself. and
50 his father really does look biz
to him.
II his physical health i up 70
par, I ssus.l1mt worry about him
He should hsNU . check ~ -.

I might suggest that you 81

q very great interest IN one. a
live companion. even IN anima
viii help him adjust TO reality.
|Of course, II will be . bit o.
trouble to have . dog when you
aren't settled, but I feel that thu

RUG BINDING; .

(From Mrs!J. +. ~, Washington
I hope am not too late for the
request on rug binding. I just pur-
chased some runners and the rug
salesman told me not to use IRON
on-tape. Notion counters in de-
partment stores carry q soft cotton
tape (twilD which comes in an as
sortment Of colors. For runners lay
the tape on the right side of the
rug, sew on by hand fairly close to
the edge. then turn tape to wrong
side Of rug and slip stitch in places.
This leaves q visible binding. For
carpeting, tack the tape in place
on wrong side only. 1t is much
easier to sew than I thought pos
sible and also very inexpensive as
the tape costs approximately
10 cents a yard.
After reading the article on

Capitol Records has hitched its
wagon to the star of bop and pro-
gressivism, and plans to give newly
signed Charlie Barnet and Woody
Herman, as well as Benny Goodman,
q chance to prove just how effective
that sort of music can be.
Stan Kenton's outstanding success
with his Progressive Jazz band, of
course, influenced this decision, as
well as his verbal selling of this type
of music. His "A Presentation of
Progressive Jazz" album which came
out last year proved a very good
seller indeed, despite dire predictions
to the contrary.
Kenton, of course, is now inactive,
Is protest against lack OF proper
concert halls in which progressive
jazz can be played. Some feel his
mantle will fall on Charlie Barnet.
This leader points out, however, that
while intending to enter the concert
jazz field, he definitely differs with
Kenton in some respects. While
great admirer of Stan Kenton, I
honestly, think he has placed too
many walls around his particular
music and where it could be heard"
he declared. I'VE hope to alter
nate flexibly between concert and
dance music. thereby creating less
restricted and stereotyped musical
product"
And speaking of Stan Kenton. an
album of his "Encores" has been
brought out. These are the encores
most cheered ana applauded in his
successful city and country concert
tours. Included in the album are
"Peg O. My Heart" "Chorale for
Brass, Piano and Bongo," Capitol
Punishment" and "Somnambulism. II
Woody Herman's album Sequence
in jazz" made while he was still
with Columbia, is an interesting
one. A six-sided affair, 1t is made
up Of but two pieces-"Summer
Sequence" in three parts and epi-
logue, and Lady McGowan's
Dream" in parts.
Both were composed by Herman's
arranger, Ralph Burns. Summer
Sequence" was premiered at Her
mans Carnegie Hall concert in
March, 1916, together with Igor
Stravinsky's Ebony Concerto"
which was written especially for the
Herman Herd. Sequence" tells
about what summer is like in diff
ferent locales. Lady McGowan's
Dream" is a musical tribute to an
elderly English poetess who was an
ardent admirer of the Herman band.
