I realized that as Purneil darted to the telephone upon Mr. Seibel's desk as soon as he had glv- er. me the message from Dicky and spoke to the operator. “Put Mister Graham right on hyah,” he directed, and then with his chocolate face beaming, he held out the receiver to me with what we call, “a Purnell obeisance.” I took it with a highly unjust mental malediction upon all en- thusiastic darke: for T know Dicky's propensity to shout also know the carrying quality of his voice, and I was afraid that Mr. | something | hear it Veritzen might which, to put wound his vanity.

Sometimes, after the age of six months, the time limit is passed. Mary may alyeady have become a wall-tlower and Johnny may never learn not to be afraid to fight the {boys in the alley after school! And it won’t be Johnny and Mary's fault. The blame is on the shoulders of their parents Wwho neglected their social life when they were six and seven and eight months old. Dr. Charlotte Buhler, professor | 0! child psychology at the Uni-| versity of Vienna, has been study- |jng all the stages of infancy for ‘vears and years. Hundreds of in-| | fants and older children are | brought to her laboratory every year. And now she has prepared a guiding set of rules for parents, when tell how you may decide if your child is normal, and also how you may keep him that way. Mrs. Pearl Graenberg, a student o Dr. Buhler's who assisted in the translation of her recent book, “The First Year of Life,” is fa- miliar with the noted psycholo- gist's views. “A child must have relations with others, although he is only a few years old,” Mrs. Greenberg says. “If he doesn't, he will de- velop shyness. If he is going to bo comfortable with other chil- dren, he has to play with them from the very beginning." Social Graces Learned! When Mary and Johnny their firat aren't supposed to hide behind the door. Social contact will be an old story by then. Don't leave your old child lving in breathe a sigh . of he requires so You'll be sorry if you do, perhaps when you try to teach him the meaning of the family language. “If a child isn't talked to, he dcesn't get the proper vowel sounds.” It will be more difficult for him to learn to speak than it would have been if he had recefv- ed conversational attention,” Mr. Greenberg explained. Also, watch the your child. “First toys should be simple,” the child psychologist has learned. “They must be of the type that can be handled easily. They should be brigt and attractive in color. A variety should be used. How- cver, an infant should not be over- stimulated by being given too many toys at one time." For here again, Mary and John- nie wi'l pay the price in the fu- ture when they begin to want en- tirely too many beads and brace- lets and roadsters, Needs Normal Background G child i3 a producy 2f his have few months its crib and relief because little attention. toys you give birthday parties they | Dr. Charlotte Buhler, left, head of the Department of Child Psychol. ogy at the University of Vienna, believes that a child’s life is affected to a great extent by influences it encounters before the age of one year. The picture at the right shows an assistant examining a baby to see if it has the consciousness of its legs and sically normal. arms which denotes that it is phy- ach, as he grows stronger. None of these, or dozens of other actions, are aimless. They are ¢all part of infant de- | velopment. It's a wise parent who | knows the future of his own child. And a little observation will help | him wonderfully in his basis. “We believe that we can see vhether a child has normal men- tality,” Mrs. Greenberg said. *The whole public is becoming child conscious. We do mot sav that a child is not normal if he does, or does not, do this, but our observa- tions have taught us that if a child responds in the manner which we have described, he is normal. So don’t wait until Mary and Johnny count their ages by years. Get busy while they still deal with months, if you want go train them in the way they shoujd go! Dor't worry if they loud.

Russian thistle, burweed and sagebrush are among the com- mon weeds whose pollens float about the air during the fall. Persons sehsitive togplant pollens are benefited and fréquently cured of their hayfever through the in- jection of pollen extracts. This treatment is most effective when given some time previous to the pollinating period of the offend- ing’ plant vet administration during the time the patient is affected may help in reducing the suffering. In addition to this treatment there are a number of precautions which the suffer should take. Thus. he should know, wherever possible, the plants to which he is sensitive, and he should avoid these whenever he can do so. He can make extra efforts to keep his nose and throat clear, and even arrange to filter the air en- tering his bedroom.

Be calm, be considerate, be interested. For there's wisdom in the mind of a two and three and four months old youngster, even if he doesn't know it. As the hundreds and thousands| of intants enter the laboratories of Dr. Buhler for observation and experimentation, she has come to learn certain important facts about the first year of life. It is no longer necessary to wait until a child goes to school to know if he is capable of learning his ABC's and locating Madria and Peking on the map.

Even during the cold season, called hayfever symptoms may re- sult from the eating of plant or animal substances to which the in- dividual is sensitive. True, hayfever is pollens — these are the male re- productive cells of plants. The wind-carried pollens are principally responsible for hayfever, but it must be remembered that only those sensitive to the proteins of the germ seeds of plants will de- velop the disease. In March, April and May hay- fever is principally due to the pol- len of trees.
