Mother Can Assist
Child Entering School

His mother won't be around. He
will be one among large group
Of youngsters, and what they do
will be strange to him. Un-
familiarity with new surround
ings is apt to breed fear in a
youngster, so it is necessary to
do everything possible to i'm
press upon the child that he will
be as welcome in the school as
all the other happy youngsters.
Mothers might do well to tell
the youngSter pleasant stories
about school. Emphasize the
kindness Of the teacher, the
meaning of lessons and the fun
of doing things with other boys
and girls. Remember. it is an
all-important day in the life of
the youngster, so pray that all
will go well.
Once the teacher has told the
child where to sit in the class
room. his mother should slip
away quietly and casually-no
tears. The parent who is over
come with emotion on such an
occasion-weeping, kissing the
little lad, beseeching the teacher
to be kind to him-is laying the
foundation for trouble. If tears
must be shed, it should be done
in private. after leaving the
classroom. It won't be long be-
fore the new pupil is absorbed
with his surroundings and with
what he has to do.

By Angelo Potri

Mothers can do a great deal
to make the beginners school
entrance happy for the child and
helpful to the teacher. After
making the routine preparations
concerning certificates OF health,
birth and vaccination, mother
can prepare the child's mind
for the new experience of going
to school for the first time.
If possible the youngster
should be taken to the school,
meet the teacher, see his class
mates at work and at play. The
prospective pupil should be told
that his teacher is a friend to
all the other little boys and
girls-somebody who wants him
to be happy while he is in the
classroom. Children should be-
lieve that school is a fine place
for them and one where they
will learn and also meet new
little friends.
Above all the child should
enter school free from fear,
though it is like a new world to
him. Until the great day, he has
been free to come and go within
a certain radius of his home. He
could have a drink of milk or
water, play when he wanted to
and sleep when he was tired.
He was just Tommy to his
mother-her child. Now, he has
to embark on something new.

Swedish Pea Soup

The nutritionists insist that
we must eat at least one hot
thing per meal, no matter how
much the thermometer scars.
You could choose. perhaps, a
Swedish pea soup with salted
pork.
Clean 1la cups of dried yellow
Swedish peaS-probably to be
found at any good Scandinavian
food store-and soak them over
night, in 2A cups of water. In
the morning bring them, covered
to a boil in the same water. Re-
move shells floating on top and
add a pound Of lightly salted
side pork. Season with pepper
and ! leek or l onion.
Cover and simmer slowly until
pork and peas are tender-about
ia hours. Remove the pork to
a side dish and cut it in slices
Serve at the same time as the
soup.
This is hearty fare and you
won't need much else beside a
green salad and a glass Of beer

ALUMINIUM PLATES.

To Mrs. D. C. G., Washing

plates from her electric stove:
I made the same unfortunate
mistake. Everything we tried
failed to restore them until
started washing them after
each using and polishing them
with soap pads. They are now
as bright and shining as new.
It took several days of this
treatment before they began
to shine again though.

It's probably too late, but
I'd like to pass along the best
way I've found to transport
baby's formula. It's so simple
I'm surprised nobody else has
mentioned it. I prepared the
sterilized bottles, water and
dextrose as usual and filled
the bottles proportionally.
took along several small cans
of evaporated milk and opened
one and finished filling the
bottles as needed. There is a
little too much milk in a can
and I just throw it away. The
water and milk were both at
room temperature and I got
by without warming and the
baby loved it.
Now, I'd like a little help.
I have charcoal sketches of me
and my husband done before
we were married. I'd like to

some special care to keep the

it from spreading. Would

WELSH NAME.
(MrS. II. H. M, Bethesda
To the lady who wants a
Snappy Welsh name for q
Corgi dog. This is what my
father, q native Of Wales,
says as he reads and speaks it
fluently.
AS a matter Of fact the
Welsh language does not lend
itself to snappy names for
anything, although local COL
loquial names in Welsh rural
districts and in the mine and
iron districts are common
enough and scarcely At to
print in a family paper.
The word Cprgi is a descrip-
tive name for that breed Of
dog and is q distinctively
Welsh word and translated
means whirling dog. For ex-
ample, the prefix cor means
to whirl or twist and the gi
is Welsh for dog. The o in
cor is like the o in for and &
in gi is like the g in give. Per-
haps the name in ancient
times referred to the tendency
Of the breed when a puppy to
chase its own tail.
However. speaking seriously
cannot think of a better name
for her dog than Corgi itself.

By Harry Macarthur

There is considerable variety

Slavenska- Frederic Franklin Bal
let is now touring the country
It ranges from the Gallo farce
of mile. Fifi'' to the somber
melodrama of "A Streetcar
Named Desire" All Of it is per-
formed exceptionally well.
Miss SlavenSka and Mr.. Frank
lin have put together a small
but talented group, including
some highly decorative young
balleriaas. They have bolstered
the whole with the. presence of
Alexandra Danilova, whose brill
lance is undiminished. The
troupe appeared last night at
Constitution Hall in the Amer
lean University Concerts series
and it was something of an
event.
It was an event on one count
for giving Washington its first
look at Valera Belts choreo-
graphic adaptation of Tennessee
Williams "Streetcar." It also was
an event for balletomanes OF
standing by bringing back
Danilova.
It was seven years ago that

magnetism than all of them
put together.
This clearly is a woman a
man safely may put his faith
in. Her dancing of Mile. Fiji"
assisted by Roland Varquez and
Marvin Krauter, was marked by
both grace and wit. It made
the trifle a most refreshing
comedy interlude.
"Streetcar," of course is the
ballet which won the Slavenska-
Franklin troupe a considerable
reputation in New York earlier
this season. It is a dance drama
which probably will arouse more
controversy than anything in
this line to come along in some
time. It also is something Of a
personal triumph for Miss Sla-
venSka.
It has enough symbolism to
satisfy a Martha Graham de-
voice Cor almost enough. There
also is a great deal Of savage
melodrama in the ballet YER
sion of the story of Blanche
Dubois. Miss Belts, symbolism
or no, gets across with a deal
OF clarity the tragedy of the
Southern gentlewoman who
sought refuge from reality with
the nearest available male and
finally ended up mad. Alex
North has helped Miss Belts
with a fine and fitting score.
This Is a trying role and Miss
Slavenska attacks it with a vim.
She calls upon highly skilled
dancing, q talent for acting and
a great deal of energy in play
ing the ill-starred Blanche.
Come to think of it, these are
the same qualities Mr.. F anklin
