THIS N THAT
by hazel

BY Hazel Underwood

You made such elaborate plans
to take you little three year old
back home to show her off. She
was very pretty child and you
knew it. How you worked getting
her little dainty clothes ready
but you forgot to get her ready!
With loving care you closed the
suit cases and before you know it
you and Clara were on the train
going to see all Of your relatives
and friends. People admired your
little girl and she was all smiles.
You were very happy.
Then Clara wanted a drink of
water. You took her to the cooler,
gave her a drink out of the little
cup. She reached over and pulled
cup after cup from the holder and
threw them on the floor. You
pleaded with her, threatened to
spank her, but each time you tried
TO pull her away from the cups,
she let out a scream and a howl so
loud you let her pull the cups I'M
til they were all gone.
Then she fell on the floor, kick
ed and screamed until. exhausted,
you picked her up as best you
could and took her in the ladies
rest room, where she yelled until
she got tired.
What made you think your child
would mind you on the train when
YOU never took the trouble nor the
time to train her at home? Your
face was red and you were so
Inundated, What you forgot was
that when your child wanted to
say or do anything at home she
did It because that was the easiest
way "out" for you, You didn't
have the time nor the patience to
stop and train her TO mind when
she was spoken to. You kept
thinking, Il have plenty Of time
to teach her, he is too young now
to be corrected" You haven't
plenty OF time
You should start teaching the
child the moment she is able TO
fall on the floor and kick and
scream. She knows right then
Just what she is doing.
II you fail 10 start training her
then. she will train you to be en-
bsrrasSed evey time YOU take her
out
You are proud Of the way your
mother brought you up.
You wonder how on earth she
had the patience TO do &c. You
just cant do thing with your
little girl!
Your mother didn't have time 10
go % lectures on child training,
she was too busy training YOU.
You go to the lectures because

she can lick any woman player

Deny Criticism
Her victory at River Forest was
marred by mild criticism. Some
elements Of the daily newspapers
accused her of not giving the press
a fair break in New York. Althea
however, has scoffed at the ac-
cusation.
However, she is definitely tao
turn. Now a world champion,
she seems TO be aware of the far
reaching effect of her comments
and is very careful about her pro-
nouncements. But observers be-
lieve that her wariness goes back
several months to an incident in
London when she was gagged by
tennis officials in her dealings
with the press.
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1957-07-26

/ that gives you another excuse to
get away from it all"
Getting away from it all means
letting a baby sitter worry for a
few hours while you sit in an air
conditioned room and listen to a
lecture on how to bring up your
child. You listen and then decide
you will try it later, when you
feel in the mood.
Time has a way Of flying and
before you know it, your child is
stin waiting to be trained properly
Hence, the little scene with the
drinking cups!
Now, you vow, you will start
training you child as soon as you
reach home. You will enjoy seeing
your child learn she has to re-
spect the rights of others and as
she grows older she will thank
you for everything you have
taught her that is right and good.
Take time, train your child and be
happy, both of you.
Parents deserve reproof when
they refuse to benefit thir children
by severe discipline. Petronius
Arbiter.
Your friend has had so much
trouble, you look at her and Won
der how she can be so cheerful.
Answering your questions she
told you, Il am so grateful to
be alive, to have my husband and
family to care for and the fact
that l am in my home and not in
the hospital that 1 feel like shout
ing and singing all day long"
She knew what it was to be
separated from her loved ones for
months. During that time she
had had time to appreciate their
good points. Not once did she re-
member their faults. She decided
II she could only come home once
more what a happy home life they
would all have together.

Demonstrations here and over

There were some critics OF the
