MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN Amusing Tiny Baby, Oné Mother Says: % Before our baby was old enough to play with a rattle I used to lay him on the sofa and put a slightly crumpled newspaper under each arm and each foot, With every movement of his arms and legs the paper would rattle and this would amuse him and keep him con- tented for a long time. Another stunt was to put & bit of something sticky on his nn‘x‘en. such as honey or molasses, and give him a tiny feather, and then he WO have great old fun in trying to get it off his fingers. He must be watched rather closely when playing this way though, for he might put the feath- er in his mouth, or he might lose his temper at his own incompetence. (Covyright, 1930.) Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND, ‘What at first seemed to be a cubby- hole of a closet much too small for use proved to be a very handy little dress- g room when the ingenious home fur- nisher finally got down to planning what : | she might do with it. ‘There was another good-sized closet opening off from this same bedroom, 5o t' . clothes problem was taken care of and this little closet left free for any treatment. ‘The walls were finished to match the eErs: | walls of the bédroom and a light was EN’ COLORS WORN ON . EVENING GOWNS, in the most naturalistic manner pos- sible. Now we admire flowers that suggest nature’s handiwork, but that also show at a glance that they are artificial. In- stead of selecting silks and velvets that most closely resemble the texture of flower .petals, flower makers organdie and pique, silk crepe, leather or woolen material and show their skill by suggesting the originals. And to our modern eyes there is something more clever, more amusing about this sort of flower than about the more complicated old-fashioned sort. Carnations and gardenias made of silk or: cotton pique are among the smartest-of the new buttonhole flowers, not because pique closely resembles flower petals, but because Dique hap- pens to be one of the smartest of all materigls at the present time. There are hats, gilets, blouses, neckwear and even gloves of pique—so why not arti- ficial flowers? ‘Tulle and organdie are other ma- terials that have been used for smart flowers,” White organdie violets give the note of contrast to an all-black after- noon dress and pleated tulle flowers are appropriate for-the picturesque type of afternooh or evening dress. Sometimes flowers are chosen to pick up the éolor note of the jewelry—white flowers with black leaves to wear with crystal apd onyx ornaments and pink flowers edged with brown for wear with pink crystal and tortoise-shell beads. ‘This week’s circular pattern and directions for making a new cape collar which may be to add a fresh touch to your last season's dress.

A shelf, about 10 inches wide and the length of the closet, was attached to the wall and a calico flounce added to this. The flounce, by the way, was put on with rings which slid over a brass rod. This made it very easy to slide back the curtain and use the space beneath the shelf for storing boxes, etc. It might prove practical to put a base- flux in a closet such as this and attach it a pair of tall slender lamps, which would not only light up the dressing roorn, but would also prove attractive additions to the schem {(Copyright, 1930 UNDERWOOD DEVILED HAM ArSUNDAY SUPPER New LowerPrices UNDERWOOD Deviled Ham STRENGTH , for a few cents So easy to get Health and Strength for a few cents if you know what food to buy.

WITH ALL THE BRAN : OF THE WHOLE WHEAT ' ~ One of the really difficult problems confronting parents-is management of their recreation without disturbing the | children’s whole® regular scheme of ex- istence. We all agree that children who | have had regular Rours and always In. faet, the whole thing usually ends up by the parent saying, “It'll be a long time before I take her away again,” or something to that effect. Mrs, C. A S. has a problem even more complicated, because she lives on a farm. She sa; ‘What can be done with a child of 2% years who refuses to sleep when away from home? I have always put her in. her own . ou think parents should always stay me with children? ‘It is hard to get any one to stay with ours, as we live on a farm.” . . . You falled to.mention- whether the hchild refused to sleep at night or at naptimes, and that would make a dif- ference. - Suppose from now on you try this plan. Make sleeping in some other bed at naptime a sort of treat, to ac- custom “ber h":n dutfel;x:’t‘ »agrr&\;]r:dmu. Let her try changing night, pro- wvided she sleeps alone, f( this is too upsetting to her at night, don’t insist on it, for the whole plan will fail un- less the child enters into it as a treat, Then if she goes away she will already have become accustomed to new beds and new scenes and will have learned how to sleep despite them. To go away for an afternoon and ex- pect a child immediately to lie down and sleep is expecting too much. It is better to let her play and put her to bed earlier at night. The excitement of visiting is quite enough to end any thought of sleep even if she were In a familiar place. As for your last question, I cannot an- swer it. Parents must decide this vital issue for themselves. No one can lay down any rules for® them. I do think that when children are small there should be a sincere adherence to regular hours, and that it"is better for persons to visit lhf‘ parents, or for the parents to take thelr recreation trips on Sunday in the daytime, or the wife to go without her husband and the hus- band. Wwithout -the wife, than to drag the children out of their beds. The lat- ter course has' no pleasurable results. ‘The children are: ¢ross, and over- stimulated by company, talking and too much attention, while the parents find them 8o, obdurate and disobedient that there is no joy in visiting, With tiny bables the after-effects” are sometimes felt for days. Most mothers come to i the conclusion that they prefer routine | and regularity with recreation away : from the children, even if it comes more infrequently than the other way.

To add a touch of color to & fruit salad or cocktail, try prese: g cubes of ‘pineapple in strained strawberry juice, They not only look pretty, but they have a delicious flavor and are a |change from the usual.cherry. Pine- apple absorbs color readily, and so can be prepared to carry out various color schemes. If it is cooked in a green, mint-flavored sirup, it will take on a delicate green tint and a flavor that is unusual and delicious. - A sirup of orange juice and sugar, with the grated rind added for & stronger flavor and extra color given by means of a food coloring, gives something still different.
