WOMAN’S PAGE. Reasons for Child’s Home Tasks BY LYDIA LE B, ARON WALKER. Adults find it difficult to do things #bout a house arbitrarily without know- ing reasons, and it cannot be expected that children, who are always asking “why,” will find it agreeable to obey or- ders without knowing reasons. This does not mean that a busy mother Las to be continually expleining things to her offspring, but that reasons for new commands should be made clear. It is only when a child is old enough actual- ‘THE CHILD WILL NOT FAIL TO CUT CHEESE INTO LITTLE PIECES BEFORE MELTING IT WHEN ONCE SHE UNDERSTANDS THE REASON. 1y to do the home tasks that she needs to know reasons. Little matters can be used as ex- amples. For instance, why is cheese cut into small pieces when it is to be melted? Because otherwise it would take a long time to liquefy. Why is fat tried cut over a slow heat? Because otherwise it would burn and the fat would vanish instead of being drawn out. Salt pork is often so tried out when used for cooking, and beef fat, also. One mother used to tell her child, when putting a fresh sheet on a bed, to use the top one for the under, but to be sure tr, use it wrong side up and upside down. It was an odd direction but as soon as the child understood that by turning it upside down she was bringing the wear in different places, and by putting it wrong side up the side of the part that was fresh was put uppermost and so next the sleeper, all was then logical. A child should be told why it is ad- visable to iron the sleeves of a blouse or frock before the rest of the garment. If she sleeves are pressed after the garment has been ironed the rest of the frock gets badly mussed as you twist and turn it in the process of ironing the two sleeves. Speaking of ironing, explain why it is that the hot iron should always be put on its stand and never allowed to re- main on the board when not in use. It is so convenient to slip it off the gar- ment and let it rest on the board, but it scorches the textile cover. A good housekeeper has excellent rea- sons for doing her work in certain def- inite ways. A young person, by learning the reasons, begins her knowledge of good homemaking as well as having her legitimate curiosity satisfied. (Copyright, 1930.) Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. Ancient Symbols. Some psychologists spend their days and nights pondering over the past of the human race. These mind miners are interested in the things our aneient ancestors thought about. We all do our thinking in terms of symbols—that is, we make mental ictures of our ideas, so that we can 0ld them before us long enough to do something with them. The easiest way to do this mental picturizing is to pro- plants, ani- mountains, rds, ete. ‘The process is called symbolization. So the Democratic party is a donkey; the Re- publican party, an elephant. There is |no end to the symbols men create for | the purpose of organizing their ideas. | Some of our symbols are very old. The lotus leaf represents creation. ! | As such a symbol it antedates all| | written history. This plant seems to | | spring up on the surface of the water | without any apparent foundation. No common object so much reminded ancient man of his own mysterious coming into the world. The pine tree is always green, is a.| long-lived tree. It symbolizes eternal life. No one knows just when man began to use 1t to symbolize life ever- lasting. Fires that were started by lightning were treated with superstitious awe. Since the oak was struck more often than any other tree, the ancient Druids connected the mistletoe of oaks with the mystery of electricity. Early man, not being equipped with methods of discovering the secrets of life, did the next best thing—repre- sented his ignorance by familiar objects, thus hoping to endow ignorance with understanding. (Copyright, 1930.) A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK BY HERBERT PLUMMER. JROR almost 40 years Dave Bary, from a point of vantage in the press gallery of the United States Sen- ate, followed debates on the floor and wrote what news- paper men call “pleces.” Eleven years ago the Republican bosses of the Sen- ate pulled him down from the gallery, put a mace in his hands, and told him that from then on he was to be ser- geant - at - arms of that body. Ite has been 44 years since Dave Barry was privil- eged to go and come at will on the floor of the Senate. Back in 1875 Senator Isaac Christiancy had him appointed & page, but he served during only one Congress. He learned stenography, and, to use his own expression, served as “amanuensis” to various public men until 1879, when he became a news- | paper man. David S.

Now more than 70 years old, his in- terest in what goes on around him is no less keen than it was in the days he sat in the press gallery.

One of the girls in Nancy’s Good Taste Club had a cousin who attended a rural school. There were 20 mem- bers in the graduating class. It was customary for the juniors to entertain the seniors at a dinner, which they called a banquet. The cousin had written to her city cousin for some ideas for the dinner. “You xee, while I am really a senior, my sister Agnes is in the junior class. Anyway, our mothers usually prepare the meal. so you can understand why I ame interested.” The city cousin brought the question to Nancy. At the club meeting they dis- cussed menus and finally, after a spirit- ed argument, decided on this one: They started with chilled grapefruit cocktail made from the canned grape- fruit. This assured good flavor and simplified the preparation. Then they suggested “city chicken,” mashed po- tatoes and buttered string beans. The meat could be prepared in a number of homes and cooked at school, or it could be brought in casseroles to the school. ‘With this there was gravy, which would go well with mashed potatoes. The beans were canned. chance of new peas, they suggested those instead. ‘The salad was fresh as) in green pepper rings and served with mayonnaise. ‘There were rolls, olives, homemade relishes and jellies.

The beverages were ginger ale combined with white grape juice served during meal, and coffee, which finished the dinner.

Sympathy for the position of Gen. Lee since his surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia three days ago, in the face of the overwhelming odds against him, is being expressed quite generally in the North. Several north- ern newspapers have pointed out that his situation at the time of the sur- {ender must have been “very sadden- Frey is wife was within the Union lines,” says the Albany Journal, quoted today in The Evening Star here. “One of his sons, whom he loved with a manly tenderness, was dead—another was in the hands of our troops, a prisoner. His personal property had all been taken possession of by officers of the Government. “The great army, which his genius organized and which he had led upon 50 many hard-fought fields, was beaten, dispirited, ruined. Nothing awaited him but complete humiliation * * * A generous people cannot fail to sympa- thize with a fallen foe in this hour of his supreme anguish and mortification.” It was pointed out in military circles today that Gen. Grant is the only one of the Union generals who has thus far induced a Confederate army to sur- render, and he has induced three of them to do so—that under Buckner at Fort Donelson, February 16, 1862; that under Pemberton at Vicksburg, July 4, 1863, and that under Lee at Appomat- tox Court House, April 9, 1865. Mathew T. Brady, famous photog- rapher of Washington and New York, of the war, is now in Richmorli with a full corps of artists, taking views of the former Confederate capital and surroundings. Some photographs col- lected by Brady reached Washington today and were exhibited here tonight They include photographs of Gens. Lee and Jackson, taken from negatives found by Brady in Richmond, and copies of photographs of many other Confederate generals; also a large pano- ramic view of Richmond. showing the burned portion, Belle Isle, the prisons and the pontoon bridges across the James River.

Reverent Inquiry. “They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward.”—Zer., 1.5. Wh y “With their faces thitherward.” are these words inserted? If the pil- grims referred to had to ask the way to Zion, what difference did it make which way their faces were turned, meantime? 1t made all the difference in the world. What good would it have done them to find out the way to Zion, unless they were headed in that direction? The phrase, “with their faces thither- ward,” depicts the true attitude of the secker after God and the inquirer after religious truth. As Dean Church puts it: “The way and direction we choose to look make a great difference as to what we see and what we do not see.” Religious research may or may not a good thing: it depends on the mental attitude of the inquirer, on the way he is i acing. A distin, heg writer tells us that in d experiment there must be a right attitude of mind; that with- out a sympathetic predisposition, the secrets of nature remain impenetrable.
