Now that oug is scarcely possible to litter the place, in their carelessness newspapers about, tess butts anywhere, throw tin foil and empty candy bags wherever they hap- pen to be. But we might teach the children better ways. They are more amenable. But. how are we to teach children g0t to do what their grown-up relatives do habitually? Unle e adult citizen wants to p the streets clean, the parks free of litter. there is small use in lecturing the children about it. I remember once rescuing a small boy whose ardor had caused him to ad- monish a large man about his littering | the street “The young monkey! Says to me. | *You ought to put your paper in the barrel” To me! Fine respect you teach children when they correct their elders. I'll throw my papers where I like.” And one hates to put a child in an attitude of criticism toward his own | people. “My father throws things out | of the window.” voluntcered a small | boy after the teacher had told the class | that such actions were not considered good citizenship. “Isn't my father a good citizen?” Of course he was. But he was a eareless citizen, and he had something else on his mind besides the littering of the streets. But then—and still—aren't we to have clean streets?

Most of those lots could be used to advantage as playgrounds for children. The streets will be cleaner and safer if the odd lots are used for playgrounds and properly pervised.

SPROWLS. | Anhedonia, | Anhedonia is & rather old psycho- | logical term. It deserves a wider pop- ularity than it enjoys, for it helps to classify a lot of temperament traits that are often ascribed to loss of ap- petita, The simplest way to define anhedonia 1 to call it loss of zest, pep and inter- est. 'The anhedoniac is chronically “pored” and, 2as usual, doesn't know why. According to the dictionary, an- hedonia is “a morbid condition in which the sufferer losses all interest in mat- ters which intimately concern himself. This definition is, however, somewhat exaggerated. Like all temperament traits anhedonia is partly inherited, partly acquired. It is the predisposition that is inherited. For example. the anhedoniacs are by ature light sleepers. They app:oach each day with an attitude of having already lived through some of the day's irritations. You may notice it even ‘in children, more often girls. Anhedonia is a pretty good name for some of the temper tantrums at the breakfast table. | Among the old-r girls anhedonia will in some cases explain why now and then a piece of household furniture is shifted to another corner of the room | for no other very good reason.

BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. The Nancy Page Club was having its last meeting. They had decided to go to the club for the luncheon. In this way no hostess would have to wear herself out for the special luncheon with which they always ended the year. The club hostess suggested that rain- bow colors be used for table decoration. They thought columbine would make an attractive centerpiece, which it surely did. The guests sat at small tables seating eight. The club had bowed to the vogue | for color. Each table was covered with a pastel-colored cloth. There was pale pink, soft vellow, dainty blue, shim- mering green. At each table there was variety in the napkins' colors. One might be yellow, another lavender, an- other green, and so on. Since it was a luncheon no candles were used. But the goblets, inexpensive ones of pressed glass, were also in pastel colors, 50 that the tables were gay even | before the guests sat down, and after | that the room looked like a garden in ! full bloom. The menu was good—jellied tomato broth with hot, paprika crackers, This with capers and chopped truffies on slices of marinated cucumbers. Feathery rolls with fresh strawberry jam and sweet butter were served with the salad. So_was the coffee. The dessert was simple—chilled can- ned figs served with cream, thick and yellow. Sugar cookles with notched edges, so rich they were crumbly, werz passed with the figs.
