30 WOMA N'S PAGE. Winter and Children’s Wraps BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER This is the season above all others when weather is coldest. Those in the North have intense cold. those in the South have what to them is cold weath- er, and in between these two districts in temperate climates of Amerfea the ther- mometer rises and falls more noticeably. but it remains in the low degrees. It is “on the cool side” of 70 degrees, Sum- mer clothing even indoors is scarcely adequate. In either case, however, when one is out of doors sufficient extra cloth- ing must be worn to insure comfort. Outer wiaps should always be takea off indoors when & person remains more |than a very few moments. It i& a great | mistake to linger in the warmth when dressed for the cold. if one is going out again_shortly.

However, it is a great mistake not to take off some of the extra wraps when the mother is to remain for anv length of time. Yet one often sees little folk staggering un- |der a weight of garments and tugging yat the mother's skirt in the vain at- {tempt to attract attention to their con- | dition. Sometimes the child is cross. sometimes it is crying, never is it happy. For a mother to decide wisely on pur- {chsses is difficult with a_troublesome child heckling her.

Today in Washington History BY DONALD A, CRAIG January 21, 1391.—President Wash- | ington today announced his decision | in favor of the site at tha head of | tidewater on ‘the Potomac River for the new Federal city. He sent a mes- | | sage to Congress stating (hat “in ma- | ture consideration of the advantages | and disadvantages of the several posi- | fons within the limits preseribed.” he | | had by proclamation. also fssned to- day. directed commissioners “to survey | and limit a part of the territory of the | | 10-mile_square on both sides of the | River Potomac. so as to comprehend | | Georgetown in Maryland and extend to the Eastern Branch ™ | The President adds that he has not | given the territory th> whole extent to which: it is susceptible in the direc- | tion of the river, because he looks upon {1t as important that Congress shall have an opportunity to consider whether, by an amendatory law. it de- sires to “authorize the location of the | | residue at the lower end of the pres- ent, so as to comprehend the Eastern | | Branch itself and some of the country | on its lower side in Marvland and the | | town of Alexandria in Virginia.” He says that if Congress is “of the opinion ~that the Federal territory | | should be bounded by the water edge | !of the Eastern Branch. the location of | | the residue will b> made at_the upper | | end of what is now directed.” | | It is believed that Conaress will ap- | | prove of extending the territory south- | ward to comprehended land below the | Eastern Branch in Maryland and the | city of Alexandria in Virginia.

Might, justice and right are powerful forces in the everyday life of men, | women and children. Grown folk get | them mixed up.frequently, so it is not surprising that children often do so, t00. | Indeed. they are forces that we might | well stand in awe of and make refer- | ence to them with humility and rever- | ence. They are not fitted Yor the use of childhood. They are purely adult powers and should be called into service | in training children only with under- standing and wisdom. Who can measure justice? Who would care to assume the full knowledge of right? Who dares to call might to his aid when he deals with little children? Certainly not the wise man. He treads softly and , waits patiently and deals gently, ith mercy and loving kindness. “As long as a child stays in my | household, whether she is 2 or 22, she will obey me. This is my house and I am to be obeyed.” Can't you imagine what happened when the children reached & stage of independence? “Well, I fixed her. I belleve in jus- tice. She spilled the ink on my table- cloth and I did the same on her school dress and made her wear it. She'll find out she can't be careless with my things without losing some of her own.” Will that child remember guardian with tender regard? doubt it. “I gave him a good crack on the jaw. Such impudence! To tell me what he liked and what he didn't like. I tell you these youngsters need check- ing up. Pretty soon you won't be able to live with them.” And all I have to say to these up- holders of might and justice and nggz is that they will not be required to live long with the children they handle this way. When they arrive at years of dis- cretion, when they can get along by themselves, they will establish formal relations with their people; call on Thanksgiving day or wire a Christmas greeting and remain aloof for the rest of the year. You cannot establish a home center on the basis of such tre- mendous forces as these, They are far too big for childish purposes. One has to deal with softer her I CHILDREN By Angelo Patri less and more human forces if the home ties are to hold or be worth the held- ng. All children know the accents of love. They know them in the tones of the voice, They know them as they sound in a footstep. They respond to them in the touch of a gentle hand. They warm to them in the actions of a kindly heart. They surrender lock, stock and barrel to the accents of love. And love s no weakling. They know that, too. But to the majesty of might, right and justice a child is blind and deaf and afraid.

THE TRUTH ABOUT BRAN AND CONSTIPATION Thousands of people eat bran regularly for the healthful rough- age it provides. It is a splendid practice. But be sure you are really retting all the roughage you need when you eat bran. Doctors say it takes 100% bran to relieve consti- pation. Part-bran products, at hest, can only accomplish part-way results. That is why they fail! Kellogg’s ALL-BRAN is 1007 bran. It furnishes roughage in cffective quantities—and in the most effective form: cooked and krumbled. Just two tablespoonfuls daily—chronic cases, with every meal—are guaranteed to relieve constipation.
