Some womien buy their bonds and Chen promptly forget all about them. ‘Yet bond houses offer many valuable services to their customers. Often ad- wantageous investments are overlooked, and quite often one overlooks oppor- tunities which might be realized from one’s own securities. Don't ever pigeon- hole your bonds. From time to time it is an excellent idea to have one's securities analyzed. An issue of bonds that is promising or favorable one year may have a differ- ent comj lbn the mnext.

Lay the-strip of material before you and measure the sides off in 2-inch spaces. Then make lengthwise bast- ings 2 inches from each edge. These bastings wil} be 2 inches apart. Now mark off a scroll between these two bastings so that each scallop is 2 inches wide. Mark this scroll lightly with crayon and have the material machine hemstitched along this line. When the work is done cut carefully along this lne so that you will have two strips with scalloped edges. By this arrangement there is no waste of material and you have two strips of material from the '6-inch-wide strip with which you started. Now make two or three rows of shirring an eight of an inch apart along the straight line of the strips. If you are going to use the frilling for accessory collars and cuffs, mount this shirred edge in a narrow band of cot- ton material and stitch down. Shirred frilling of this sort has a decided ad-| vantage over pleated frilling, since its appearance is not changed by washing and ironing, FOOD PROBLEMS BY SALLY MONROE. Way to Follow Menus.

C, TUESDAY, APRIL 28, 1931 Your Baby and Mine ‘Whether a child is . mentally back- ward and, therefore, incapable of learning as rapidly as the average child, or whether she is uncontrolled because of poor management, it is not always easy to decide. Both conditions bring about somewhat the same results. Mrs. A. asks my opinion of an only child of 3 years: “This child is just beginning to talk, answers questions, but does not ask them. She has no fear of her parents (Why should she fear them, Mrs. A.?), and_just dares them to correct her. If they say she'll get a spanking, she says, ‘Do it now.” If she is put to bed for punish- ment, she screams for hours. When her mother takes her visiting, she just tears the house up. If told not to walk in the water, she deliberately chooses the deepest spot. At 15 months if she fell down, she could not pick herself up but had to be helped. Her parents have tried to explain to her and to do what was right.” ‘The parents’ efforts at man: nt have shown no real understanding of the nature of a child this age or how to get the right results. If she says, “Do it now,” and “Let me see it,” her speech is certainly as good as that of the average 3-year-old. Rather than a physical inability to get up, her desire to be helped up when she fell might be a temper tantrum analogous to & child who grows angry at his toys and stands and screams at them. In a word, this might have been would not, rather than could not get up. ‘Threats and warnings of punishment are incorrect methods of control, and the child's knowledge that these are ust threats shows that her intelligence s quite up to the average. A duller child would be terrified, because of his inability to see that it was a threat. ‘The duty of these parents is to teach the child how to act, not to prevent her acting by threats of punishment. Our leaflet, “How to Manage the Child Wisely,” takes up training from in- fancy and tries to suggest those meth- ods which bring the best results. The leaflet on “Dealing With the Child's Curiosity” covers that phcse of the child’s life when she is into everything, and suggests the proper treatment. A self-addressed, stamped envelope is necessary for either or both of these leaflets.
