The students will also try out the effects of foods upon themselves (which certainly is a t improve- ment upon trying it out upon poor friend husband), They will also spend half of their class time in hospital and milk stations And in many cases the girls will be paid while they are working,” said Miss Otis, “Girls who work in milk stations and who go into department stores to study practical buying will receive enough compensation to mé it worth their while ext year these young women will have an opportu- nity to go to the department stores to urn the value of materials, fabric tests and designs.

How often I see mothers of restless small children scold and even slap them frequently as they attempt to stand up on the seat, call out loudly or want to walk up and down the aiste of the car! Why don't these moth- ers provide some special toys or means of keeping the child interested, an! thus quiet, instead of expecting it “to be good"? merely by scolding it? There are many small articles to take on a trip which can easily be slipped into a handbag and which will keep young children quite happy. A box of crayons and the advertising pages of a magazine ‘to color’’ are warranted to insure at least fifteen minutes’ peace and sitting still; @ 10 cent pair of small blunt-pointed scis sors may then be given with which to cut out these futuristic results and another quarter of an hour of quiet gained. This might be followed by offering a small ‘‘jig-saw'' puzzle with all the parts to be arranged in the right picture. Or very small, flat wooden blocks, again costing only a dime, may be erected on the car win dowsill and give the child consider- able pleasure and means to keep his hands and ideas busy. Tiny wagons or trains only a couple of inches long can be made to go in and out of these block houses and further increase the occupation of the child. And once you can keep him occupied he will not want to climb over the seats, tickle the bald-headed gentleman in front or constantly tease for un- wholesome sweets. Better by far to invest a half dollar tn. a few of these simple, light toys and give them to the child than to invest the same money in-candy merely to “keep him quiet'’—-and thus let him eat at an irmeysular time and probably eat too much of a food which only serves to make him still hotter and more rest- less, as sugar is a food that quickly generates more energy. Little girls can find enjoyment in small dolls or sets of miniature dishes, and if the trip is long the top of a suitcase may be used a table on which to set out the doll's belong ings. ‘The little boxes of Japanese water flowers will provide many min- utes of quiet. Just a half cup of water in the paper or collapsible cup will allow one of these quaint flowers to open. Something like 20 little flowers for a dime should yield amuse- ment for the child who watches each one open into a new shape. It is a mistake to think that a child will keep quiet merely by look- ing out of the window. Really noth- Ing is more tedious and more of strain to the eyes of a ehild than trying to watch rapidly moving back- grounds. That is why several definite playthings should be carried along and the child forced to amuse himself. Often he becomes restless because the seat is so hot. A flat airpillow which may be easily inflated will prove cooler for him to sit on or to put behind him than the usual heavy and hot plush of the seat. Again a lit- tle child becomes tired because there is no rest for his legs. In every case possible the ly » In the seat should be piled up so that child’s legs may rest or be stretched out on it, as this will keep him more comfortable and far less restless than if his legs are allowed to dangle for a long time Helpful cessories are a folding knife of stainless steel with which to peel fruit, a folding spoon and always the indivi folding drinking eup.
