WOMAN'S PAGE. Valentines Made by Children BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. One of the things children delight to do is to cut paper. The mere snip- ping or slashing of it with scissors tickles their fancy at first. Later on they love to cut out pictures from papers and magazines. Gradually they acquire sufficient facility to cut without follow- ing any directions, making up the de- signs as they go along. These will be crude and queer in the inning, but they may be the nucleus for fine sil- THERE ARE MANY PLEASING PAPER PATTERNS EASY FOR CHILDREN TO CUT. houette cutting if a child has a true deft fingers and the artistic in- nct.

A mother may often find the method practical herself. Indeed, when pockets, collars, etc., in a pattern for frocks are wanted . she instinctively resorts to folded paper cutting to get accuracy. Fashion patternmakers have this method in mind when they supply half of a section, one edge of which is to be laid on a straight fold of goods be- fore the section is cut out. The cutting of folded paper should be encouraged in children. Supply them with blunt scissors. When they get to cutting fairly good things, give them colored paper and a scrapbook or some sheets of wrapping gnper on which to paste the figures and objects. Stimulate them to arrange the objects to form a picture. Pine trees are very easy to cut. A rail fence between two, with a girl in the foreground, is a simple composition. A window with potted plants or a win- dow box on the sill and green blinds wide open offer another suggestion. After showing the children how to form groups leave them alone to develop original arrangements. i One of the ways in which this ability can be used is in the making of valen= tines. Little folk will find this fun and mothers can have the satisfaction of knowing when they are so occupied that they ere out of mischief and happy. MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST. Sliced Bananas.

For more than 100 years scholars in social sclence have been trying to de- ed | velop and support the theory that every group of people has its own group- mind. This group-mind is represented as a sort of over-mind, separate and distinct from the minds of the individ- uals who .compose the group. ‘They tell us that the members of any organization are dominated by this group-mind quite as completely in the presence of the group as they are by their individual minds when away from the group. A few students of the sub- ject go so far as to say that the group- mind dominates - the individual even when he is isolated from the group. There is no group-mind. It's merely a philosophical assumption employed to cover up lignorance about the nature of the individual mind, which alone has psychological reality. What so many of the older students call & group-mind is really nothing but a name for the behavior of like-minded people once they are thrown together. It would be more to the point to say that like-minded people constitute a mind.group than to say that they are influenced by a fictitious group-mind. . Like-mindedness means that people have acquired the same habits in re- spect to a given situation. You to church with church habits, to a lodge with lodge habits, to a picnic with pic- nic habits. These are situations. And the situations set a certain set of habits to unwinding. The habits operate to lend connectedness to the behavior. Those who have acquired the same habits act alike. The observer who doesn’t understand the situation flies to the conclusion that some mysterious over-mind is operating to make all act alike, (Copsright, 1920.) MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN.

I thought perhaps some of your readers would be interested in my methods. “Sipce my baby was tiny he has had his nap out of doors, even in the coldest weather (though he was always well wrapped). I began giving him sun- baths, one minute on each side, when he was just a month old, and that was in October, and have continued ever since. He is now 15 months old and runs around every day in his sun- sult for about two hours. 4 family and friends have been shocked and_have insisted he would take cold. I have maintained it is often warmer in the sunshine than it is inside. At any rate, he is well and strong and has had but one cold in his whole life, which, I think, proves that sunbaths do not hurt him. “He drinks his milk from a glass (began this at 11 months) and feeds himself entirely. I began by using two spoons, one for him and one for me. At first I did most of the feeding with my spoon, but he gradually learned to use his own, and now I merely as- sist and he does most of the work.” Answer—If a_ child becomes accus- tomed to sunbaths gradually and builds up a resistance to the air as it gets colder, ht:o ?.oeln't ptél;fl}nu dflel1 the rson Wi Wrap] ‘warm cloth- and is then sent out Into cold air.

E DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Is Wife a Handicap or an Inspiration to Ambitious Young Man?—When Is the Sacrifice of Personal Happiness Justified? | DEAR DOROTHY DIX: For three years I have heen engaged to a young man who told me the other day that he wanted to wait at least two years more before we got married. The reason he gave was that he wanted to get a better start in his business before he married. He : “As you are now, you are an inspiration to me, but as a wife you would be a handicap.” 1 am a competent business woman, making as much almost as he does, and have a splendid chance to advance myself, so I would not be a financial burden on him. I have had a better education than he, and have been wondering how I could possibly handicap him in his ambitions. Do you think he is afraid of the altar? JANE Q. Answer: Tt looks that way. At any rate it does not take a Sherlock Holmes to deduce from his actions the fact that he is not a very ardent suitor, and that if you marry him you will always have to play second fiddle to his business. ‘Business is the fatal rival of many an American wife, and while it may monopolize more of her husband’s time and interest than any other woman would, the wife has at least the consolation of reaping the rewards of the liaison. For while her husband’s infatuation for business may put her nose out of joint, it hangs ropes of pearls upon her. The fact that you are a business woman, able and willing to support yourself after marriage, seems to nullify ‘four flance’s contention that you wouid be a milistone about his neck as a wife. There are, however, many cases in which tahwue is - l:\‘ndu:lp to the ambitious youg man who is girding himself up for e race of life, It is a fatal mistake, for instance, for a poor young man who wishes to get al in the world to burden himself with a family, because in these days of the h cost of living it would take all hs could make and more to support them. He cannot save anything and the door of opportunity opens only to those who hm": a golden key. {-Ie m:;t I:t hln(‘° lnm by because %o has not the money make a good investment, or to some business in which he knows he could make a fortune. . Worse still, he is npiled to whatever poor job he has. With hungry little mouths to feed, with restless feet to shoe, he cannot afford to take &ny'ggances. Nor can he follow his luck if it beckons him to distant places, for he cannot wife and children with him about the globe. He must stay put and grind at his mill because it turns out the grist upon which wife and children subsist. Generally speaking, & wife is a handicap to a young professional man, especially to a clergyman or a doctor. The success of two depends largely upon the favor of women, and women look much more kindly upon an unmarrie man than they do upon a married man. The unmarried preacher or doctor is an object of interest to every -woman, and he is invited to dinner and made mug:n of, and has the opportunity to make the social contacts that are invaluable ‘Whether as a general propositior er, inspiration depends entirely upon the wo:::!!:nd how much her husband loves her. A wife who is a wet blanket and who kills the morale of her husband by her whinings and complaints; an extravagant wife, & nagger; a wife who is blundering and tactless and who makes enemies for her husband instead of friends, is a htndlu? so great that only a man of superhuman ability and talent can overcome it. On the other hand, an overwhelming love for his wife and the determination to give her every luxury has been the inspiration that has led many a man to achieve success, DOROTHY DIX. « s s DEAE DOROTHY DIX: Are we entitled to our own happiness at the price of another person’s happiness, or should we sacrifice our own iness for the other .person? 3 h;gpm Answer: If your own happiness involves doing some wrong. or injustice to another n, then you have no right to take it at the other gne‘s expense. But if it is just a matter of the or convenience, or pleasure of ooe or 7t.l:a other, why have you not as much right to your happiness as he or 1 do not think there is any other subject of which we take view as we do of self-sacrifice.

More than that, it has not only been futile, it has done harm instead of good, and even those for whom we sacrificed ourselves would huvem“b&m off if we had not done it, but had gone along and taken our own 3 I have in mind the case of a splendid man I know who was born a mechanical genius. He had a fine start in a firm where his talents would undoubtedly have carried him on to a success, but his father and mother pleaded with him to come back and live with them on a poor old farm that was mortnfi‘d up to the last blade of grass on it. They wept and told him how lonely they were without him, and how his father was sick and unable to work, and the farm would be taken from them unless he came and worked it out of debt. They reminded him of his duty, and at length prevailed on him to sacrifice his own prospects and come back to them. 1t blasted every hope and ambition he had in life, but he set his hand to the imj ble task of worthless land pay, but, although he worked himself almost to death, he falled because his talents did not lie that way. His life was ruined by his sacrifice and he did his parents no good, whereas if he had gone on his own way he would now be able to bu; them & dozen farms instead of the three of them being poor and living from d to mouth. And I am thinking of & beautiful girl who gave up the man she was in love with to stay with a crotchety old mother who refused to leave the house sho had lived in all of her life, and whose mother now reproaches her because she never married. And I am thinking of a woman I knew who sacrificed herself for years to support a lazy loafer of a husband whose delicate health did not permit him to work, but who was miraculously cured, and who not only got a job but made a fortune when his wife died of overwork and he was forced to support himself or starve. So, Editha, before you sacrifice your own happiness for anybody else’s, see whether he is any more entitled to hlprlnm than you are, and be very sure that your sacrifice won't harm instead of doing good.

Hopkins & Son, New York Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. February 7, 1869—Mayor Bowen, with committees from the Boys in Blue, the Soldiers and Sailors’ Union and other local groups, has made applica- bemaiogs and srousds for permission and Jor perm! to use the rotunda and the hall of the House of Represemtatives at the Capitol to give a “grand inauguration ball and banquet” on March 4, when Gen. Grant will become President of the United States. The committee, at a meeting held this morning, unani- mously agreed to accede to the request. Political Washington is alive with gossip today as a result of the speech delivered in the House of Representa- tives yesterday by Representative Wash- burne of Illinois, in whi-la ke suggested a policy of government Sconomy and retrenchment in expenditures. In view of the fact that Mr. Washburne usually speaks extemporaneously and that on this occasion he read from printed slips of paper, some persons drew the con- clusion that he was speaking in behalf of President-elect Grant and fore- shadowing the policy of the incoming administration. . It seems, however, upon further in- q today that Mr. Washburne was speaking for himself and had no spe- cial message from Gen. Grant, although it is no secret that he and Gen. Grant hold similar opinions on the matter of government economy and retrench- ment. From this time forward it seems certain that Representative Wash- burne’s speeches will be very closely scanned by all those persons who are seeking to probe into the political fu- ture and get an inkling of what Presi- dent-elect Grant may propose to do after he enters the White House. Meantime plans for inauguration ceremonies on a grand scale for Gen. Grant are going forward. The enthu- siasm which is being exhibited by resi- dents of the city and leaders of the Republican party in the States seems certain to make this one of the most memorable inauguration ceremonies ever held. Word has been received by the local authorities indicating that there will be many delegations from the States to take part in an inaugural procession and the proposed grand ball.

The friend refused to pay the price de- manded, but to give $500 for the animal. The owner protested that the nag was worth $1,000 and the deal was off. That night the horse died. Next morning the owner of the late | 1lamented creature phoned his friend that he could have the horse for $500. This was satisfac- tory and the pur- chaser sent $500 to his friend, who, skipped out of town before the buyer could discover that the horse was dead. Overcome by re- morse, the seller returned a few weeks later and called upon his friend. “I'm sorry,” said he, “that I de- ceived you andtook your $500 for a dead horse.” ‘The other listened for a moment and replied: “Oh, that was all right. You see, I raffled the | horse off and sold 1,000 chances at $1 a ticket. When the winner kicked I gave his dollar back.” e A few weeks ago & woman who spent much of her time in Washington died. She was one of America’s greatest humanitarians and did as much, if not a trifle more, to improve the condition of women and children than any others of her sex. State officials co-operated with her in her efforts. Not posing as a public speaker, she could thrill her hearers, and as a_ writer her scintil- lating lines and philosophy were read by_millions. Men high in the affairs of the Nation were her friends. So were charwomen. She left an estate of approximately $100,000. Had she applied her ability to selfishness she might easily have left $1,000,000. The lives of many women and young- sters were brightened and most of them did not know whence came their help. Here are some lines she once set down, entitled “A Creed of Humanity”: “I believe every human is not with- out some good. Therefore I would prac- I GAVE HIM HIS DOLLAR BACK"” Health vs. Diet.
