If You Can't
Lick 'em-Join 'em

Just back from visiting with my
daughters family and playing
GrandpOp to two of the cutest
kids you ever saw. While there
picked up a couple of new ideas
on child raising:
If your child's learning to use
a pen, provide an old fountain
pen filled with bluing. Looks
and writes like ink, but won't
stain clothes or furniture.
! Maybe you have a boy, like my
grandson, who thinks he's too
old for a bib but isn't. A big
cowboy bandana works just as
well, and looks herman to boot.
