WOMAN"S PAGE. Homemakers’ Minds Up-to-Date BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. It is as important for the well-being of .4 homemaker, and especially for the mother of growing children, to keep her mind clear for new thoughts and new ideas as it is for her to keep her house clear of sunnecessary and 1seless articles. In one instance, without elimination the mind gets stagnant. In the other the home gets cluttered. So when a theory has been NEW THEORIE DISCUSSE UPON_IN AND IN MAGAZINES, PAPERS, | ETC. worn threadbare by the stabs of new developments, stop clinging to it, and let the new ideas that are hetter have a place in your mind. This is what must happen if you would hold your mental pace up to that of your chil- dren. They are constantly examining, inspecting and sorting the ideas that come to them. Their minds are not | clogged, as older ones often are, with immovable ideas that cannot be per- meated by the living force of growing investigations, so that they move with | the times, Clear the Mind. This does not mean that a home- ! maker and mother should be vacillat- ing in her thoughts. Growth does not vacillate: it moves steadily forward to fulfillment. Often what seems like & new idea is just a further develop- ment of a true old one. But unless | we can keep our minds open for the | development to have room-to grow, we | can have but a partial knowledge and a partial truth. When we become so fixed in our ideas that we refuse to | change them, and so wary of develop- ments tiat we shun them, we are de- servedly classed as “old-fashioned,” if, Indeed, we are not called by the less agreeable term “old fogies.” Keep Up With Children. The competent homemaker is quick to appreciate the value of new inven- tions to lighten labor. Who, for in- stance, would willingly cling to wash- tub and scrubbing-board laundry work who could just as well have an elec- tric washing machine? It is a delight to rid the house of the old-time ap- pliances when there is an opportunity to replace them with modern things. That our parents had the best home fittings possible in their day does not make us any the less eager to change them when later developments clearly prove the new to be an improvement |on the things of their time. Our chil- dren would think we were foolish not |to provide our houses with the best to be had in appliances for the home. Can we expect them to feel we are less foolish if we refuse to consider present-day ideas of thought? ~There have been developments, and there never will cease to be further develop- {ments, so long as man can think and | mentaly grow. Prove the Ideas. Tt cannot be asserted with any de- gree of truth that just because mod- ern ideas are modern they are better than old ones. But it can be appreci- ated that without knowledge of what the new ideas are we cannot disprove them logicaily. The rising generation has no monopoly of these latest ideas, these advance theories, these sound- |ings of the unknown in any field of science or thought. They are open to the present older generation, who should keep their hold on the same things. Homemakers find it neces- sary frequently to clear their men- tal houses of discarded, outgrown thoughts and cherished theories that they may make room for better ones and improvements, just as they would in a moment clear their houses for better furnishings and latest im- provements.

In the window was a large sign which asked. “Which of these is vours?"' If one walked to the opposite side of the window, where the noses push against the gla she'd see a row of puzzled expressions.

Some of them are so “‘complete” they leave little room left for clothing. The price of the fittings makes the case expensive, and need- lessly so.

It's ideal for women's things, and it will hold much more than a suit case of equal size. It's to carry, and it will fit in a com- paratively small space. If you have hats to carry, you will still find plenty of space in the box for articles of clothing around the edge. Two types of novelty bags have their uses for women. One is like an |ordinary suit case except that it has a layer on top for toilet articles. The top layer may be bought with or with- out fittings. It makes traveling easier because you can arrange your toilet without disturbing yvour packed clothing in any way. The other bag is drawn shut with sort of a “zipper” arrangement. It is made of flexible leather and its capacity seems to be limitless. ‘Women who like to buy clothing and things as they travel along will be interested in a new sort of tele- scopic bag. It can be adjusted to various sizes to suit your needs. It's made in a variety of models and leathers.

He goes through life minding his own business and not wor- rying in the least. The result is that he has very little trouble. .Those who try to make trouble for him usually find that they are the ones who are in trouble and that Jimmy's peace of mind isn’t even disturbed. “If you don’t carry your troubles around in your mind, you won’t carry them at all,” says Jimmy. Johnny Chuck certainly was feeling a whole lot better after Jimmy Skunk's visit. He was almost pleasant as he watched Jimmy amble away to look for some fat beetles. When Jimmy was out of sight Johnny sat up on his doorstep to look around. “It's too late to go anywhere to- JOHNNY LOOKED UP AT HIM AND WINKED. night,” said Johnny, talking to him- self. “The Black Shadows will soon be here, and I ought to be in bed. But tomorrow will be another day. I half believe that Jimmy Skunk is right. I wonder 1 didn’t think of it before. If he is right, why there’s nothing to worry about, and I may as well have n good time while I can. I have found Polly Chuck a little fussy sometimes. She seems to-think that I ought to do what she wants to do, and generally I do. It's easier to get along that way. But now I can do just what I please and she won't know anything about it. T certainly will do a little looking around tomorrow.” So Johnny Chuck went to bed under the old stone wall, and for the first time since he had been there his dreams were pleasant. He dreamed that he didn't have a care in the world. The result was that. when he awoke early the next morning he awoke in the bes& of tempers, The day before evervthing had been all wrong when he awoke. This morning everything was just right. The air was just cool enough for comfortable walking; there Ao-the.grass Jjust exactly right—just sweet enough. He never had heard his feathered friends sing so sweetly. ' Johnny actu- ally tried to kick up his little back heels. Yes, sir, that's what he did. Welcome Robin, who happened to see him just then, laughed right out. Johnny looked up at him and winked. ‘Welcome Robin was 80 astonished that he sat there and stared foolishly for a few minutes. Then he hurried to tell the news to all the rest of the people in the Old Orchard. As soon as they heard that Johnny Chuck was his old happy self they all hurried over to say hello to him. The Merry Little Breezes of Old Mother West Wind rumpled up his hair and pulled his rvhiskem Johnny laughed. He liked s “Do it some more!” he cried, and the Merry Little Breezes did. Not once did Johnny Chuck look over to see if Polly Chuck was sitting on the doorstep of their old home. Instead, after breakfast .he scrambled over the old stone wall and went ex- ploring. There were some places aiwng the edge of the Green I orest that Johnny had always intended to visit, but never had. Polly Chuck al- ways had warned him that he would be foolish to think of doing such a thing, because he might get’into trou- ble of some sort. Now he would do it and there would be no one to stop him. He rather hoped that Polly saw him climb over that old stone wall and the direction he took, but he didn't look back to see. : All that day Johnny Chuck did those things that he wanted to do and 1éft undone those things that he didn’t want to do. In short, he did some things which really were very foolish and which he knew were foolish, and he did them because they were fool- ish. He felt like doing foolish things, and it tickled him to do them with no ) one ta stop him. He wandered about wherever and whenever he wanted to. He had adventures. He got his coat muddy. He even spent the night in a strange place. In short, Johnny be. came a sort of tramp. He was taking Jimmy Shunk’s advice and following it, and he was having a perfectly good time doing it.

Stella’s been through more in her brief young life than most war vet- erans. She's had so many different kinds of illnesses and operations that it's a wonder there's anything left of her to tell about it. She’s spent most of her time in hos- pitals, and she knows more about those institutions than the nurses do themselves. Now, at the age of he's a fairly healthy looking specimen, and one misht even be led to suppose that she was perfectly normal—but Stella doesn’t allow any such mistaken no- tion to exist long in anvbody's mind. “Oh, my dear, 1 look well now, but what I've suffered,” is her favorite opening for a long speech concerning her various ailments. Of course she's considered a tire- some bore by all her friends, but that's not the most dangerous feature of her case. She's bad for other people. as unhealthy as a germ. She has no intention of being incon- siderate or thoughtless of other peo- ple’s feelings. Yet she's worse than thoughtless—she’s dangerous. ‘When a friend comes to her with the sad news that she's about to undergo an operation for appendicitis, Stella can barely wait for the other to finish before she's off: “Oh, you poor thing. I do hope you aren't going to have terrible experience. I suffered horribly for days!” And she proceeds to go into the most lurid details of her torments. ‘With the result that her listener goes . miserable with fear, apprehen- sive of the worst befalling her. Stella has been so wrapped up in her own terrible misfortunes she hasn’'t taken thought of what effect she may be having on her poor friend. And so Stella has come to be re- garded as a purvevor of gloom. She wonders why she hasn’t any real pals and confidantes; wonders why she's always just outside the charmed circle of intimate girl friends. It's because she's made =0 many people unhappy and upset over her morbid varns. There’s a general feeling among her crowd of: “Oh, for heaven's sake: don't tell Stella you have a cold. She'll send you to the grave in 3 minutes with one of her lectures on pneu- monia.” Stella’s the victim of an unhealthy mind, and she creates an atmosphere of {ll health. The people most eagerly sought after in this world are those bright, ‘wholesome boys and girls who chase away worry and doubt with the cheer- ful assurance that whatever's wrong ‘with you can be mended soon enough. Sympathy with others’ woes is all right. -But the morbid gloating over what they have to bear sends them away from you dejected and despair- ing. ¥ In your anxiety to impress your friends with the trials you've suffered, don’t forget that their feelings must be spared—their minds kept clear of fear and anxiety. Pass up the chance to make a heroine of yourself, and consider the other fellow. (Copyright. 1926.)

Three-fourths of the comedies on the stage their motive, for the one thing on which -any playwright may provoke mirth is man'’s ability to lie to woman. have this ingenious theme for count to Yet in reality this false idea of man's that woman must never be told the truth is at the bottom of half of the troubles in the world and explains, as nothing else can explain, what we call the vagaries of woman. We see a woman acting unreasonably. idiotically. and we set it down to her being a fool, whereas, in all probability, it is all because she has been misled as to | the facts in the case and Is figuring out the situation from a false standpoint. This is bad enough in society, but for the business woman it is tragical. No one but the working woman, who has had to deal with men, knows )_m\\' hard it is to get a man to tell her the truth. He will make her a thousand promises he never means to keep: he will delude her with rosy hopes he| knows to he false; he will make a million excuses that have no foundation— rather than come bluntly and plainiy out and tell her just how things really stand. This is particularly hard on the girl who is just beginning ta work. el IP a man employs a boy as clerk or stenographer, and the vouth makes mistakes, his employer will say. “Now, look here, if you don't Jearn how to spell, or if you don’t come eariier, or quit looking at vourself so much in the mirror, you will get fired.” And the boy has, at least, a chance to correct | his faults and learn his business; but not so the girl. ¢ Her emplover doesn’t tell her the truth and give her an opportunity to| learn her trade. He makes some feeble plaint ahout business heing bhad and | having to reduce his force. and dismisses the girl, who might. had she been told the truth about why she failed, have learned to be a useful worker. What we call women's unreasonableness is nearly always to he attributed to their not knowing the facts in the case. Once upon a time I'saw a half dozen clever men—lawyers and trustees of an estate—absolutely balked by the uncompromising attitude of a woman who refused to be persuaded or cajoled or driven into doing the one sensible and obvious thing they desired her to do. Finally they appealed to me for advice. “Go and tell her the exact truth about the situation,” T said. And the bravest of the lot took his courage in both hands and remedies for hysterics in his pocket, and did so. The woman listened to him without a sob, and the minute she understood. the real| situation she did exactly as they desired. * = ' ~In the domestic relationship the lack of truth between men and women is even more to be deplored. Who can doubt that there would be fewer disappointments in marriage if, instead of telling a girl she is an angel and that if she married him she would never have to.do anything with her iily white hands but soothe his weary brow, a man would say: “See here, Mary, I know you have a temper and a tongue, and so have I, and if vou' marry me life is not going to be any picnic by a long shot. I'm poor and I expect my wife to help me. and vou'll have fo wear made-over gowns and do the work of willing hands, and, please God, we will win out together.” Of course, no lover says that—he draws a faney pleture of an impossible Eden. and then when the girl goes up against the sordid reality she feels, and, feeling. resents being roped into a confidence game. Women may also justify their extravagance on the ground that they are rarely told the truth about their husbands' and fathers’' business. Not on woman in a thousand knows what she really can afford to spend, and men have onlv themselves to blame for t he consequence of a woman thinking she can afford champagne on a_beer income. The pathetic part of all of this Is that men put themselves to so much | trouble for nothing and perjure their souls without reason. The truth and woman are not two inharmonious elements that explode and blow up when brought together. for peace and harmeny. Rather do they make a soothing combination that makes It is because women know they are being lied to that they are unreason able, suspicious and jealous, for we all fear ghosts that we cannot see more than the perils we do see. A man can never know what a sensible, practical good fellow his wife is until he begins to tell her the truth about things. This is a dead-straight tip to husbands. DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1926.) Our Children The Shows. Children ought to know more about the show creatures in the county’fairs and the shows held in the big cities. The farm children ought to be helped to place a pet on exhibition and the city child to learn the good points of the horses and dogs and cats and chickens. In the first place a big phase of edu- cation lies in that field. A child who raises and tends weil an animal learns a set of important truths at first hand. He learns, for instance, that he gets out of & job pretty much what he puts into it. That is highly important. A business character that is bullt upon that experience will be rather sound. He will learn the truth of the state- ment that one.gathers no grapes from thistles. Parents are important. 1f one wants a blue ribbon calf one will make sure that the parents of that calf are the sort that are likely to produce a blue ribbon winner. Scrubs will not do. The pedigree counts. The patient care, the constant de- mand of duty well performed, that the care of animals akes imperative, is healthy training for a child. A les- son can be put off until tomorrow, maybe skipped, without any educative result. The teacher -may overlook you, the bell may: ring in time to save you, something may happen to let you off. But the animal gets hungry and tells the world: his' coat gets dusty and the neighbors see it chilled eggs hatch out na chicks; poor stock brings poor prices.

W. writes: “Previously when I wrote vou regarding my little zirl of 2 vears and 10 months. who regurgitated when given a food she disliked, you replied that you thought she had formed the habit and that it was not real iliness that caused the vomiting. Now I want to know why it i1s that she is really sick after a vigit where she gets food she does not get at home, such as fried potatoes, fat pork and ple, when children of the same age and even younger can eat this kind of food and have no il! effect?> Whenever I give her anything out of the ordinary diet for her age she will vomit. My husband thinks she has a 'weak’ stomach. Can this be s0?" Answer—One doesn't have to seek far for the answer to this question. There is small doubt but that the parent who would feed a child of 2 or under such foods as fried potatoes, fat pork and pie, has been guilty of equal- 1y terrific habits of feeding since the child was an infant. In that case, pro- vided the child survived, he would have built up a resistance to such food that" would make him immune. Children have been known to thrive on all manner of strange and out- rageous foods, largely because they got used to them. Your baby has a more tempera- mental digestion and each new food should be fed carefully in very small quantities until the child becomes used to it. T doubt very much if a tea- spoonful of any new food would cause the child to vomit from nausea or dis- like of the food, while thres or four tablespoons fed for the first time might do this very thing. You make a great mistake to try and imitate such bad feeding habits and the child shows godd sense to refuse to digest them. Such foods are bad enough for the iron digestions of adults, and even they find such combinations giving trouble, but they are entireiy out of place for a child. Mrs. T. S.

Child welfare is a subject which has many divisions, none of them so sim- ple as they sound. Children are still fed doughnyts and coffee instead of milk and spinach, and the old, fa- miliar plaint of the weak-kneed mother, “I know it's bad for him, but I simply can't make him eat the things he dogsn’t like,” is still heard the bill, and the nation that suffer: in the long run. One of the studies that are being made by the Children's Bureau at present bears directly on this feeding problem. Here in the District. some 1,400 children are being examined with the one object of finding out more than s now known about rickets, that dreaded disease of childhood.
