Alert Child

ByWeather
Changes Affect One
and Should Lead
to Regulation.
BY ANGELO PATRI.
|7VERY teacher knows that the
weather has a lot to do with the
cuocess of teaching. Just before a
anowstorm we have plenty of trouble.
The classes are restless, noisy, Inat
tentive. and the teacher Is put to it
to hold them to any semblance of
work. When a thunderstorm is brew
ing the children are tense and nervous.
We have to be careful to move serene
ly and gently and change the program
so that they can relax as much as
possible.
Give us a blue sky and a westerly
wind, with the white clouds floating
along, and the school hums like a well
oiled machine. Every child is alert
and alive and working full speed.
Rainy days are not good for our
work. The children are bedraggled in
spirit, their clothes cling to their bod
ies and they are irritable and moody.
We have to select bright, snappy songs
for the rainy days, bring out the spe
cial readers and the best pictures and
put our best foot forward all the way
through until the sun comes out again.
Weather counts.
In the hot days of Summer take
things easy. Don’t experiment with
children on a hot day or during a hot
spell. This is no time to wean a child,
for instance. Nor is it a good time
to try to break up an old habit and
establish a new one. All you will ac
complish will be to make the child 111
and give yourself a headache. Wait
until It is cool. Fall is the best time
tor that sort of thing. Work on his
bad habit when the sky is cool and
blue.
Summer is a good time ior tne oiaer
children to practice what they know
pretty well. It Is a good time, for in
stance, to play over all the pieces
learned during the year and give the
family a recital. It is a fine time to
practice the stitches learned during
the year and make a sweater or cro
chet an Afghan out of the scraps of
wool in the waste bag.
Children often ask for things to do
In warm weather, and it is well to be
prepared to offer some practical sug
gestions. One little girl said. "Mother,
think of something I can do.”
“Oh. there are lots of things you can
do. Just start doing them.”
“I know there are lots, mother, but
I only want one thing to do. You
pick one out for me.”
Have a bit of knitting started, a bit
of crochet, some patchwork, embroid
ery, for the little girl. For the boy
some pictures to be cut and pasted In
his scrap book, a bit of wood for his
jig-saw puzzle, a cloth for a sail for
his boat. Think ahead and have some
thing ready for the warm, lazy days.
Don’t try to teach a child something
new and difficult. The weather, and
the mood It sets In the child’s mind
and body, are against you. Do the old
things in a new way and you will do
more and get better results In terms
Of health, happiness and growth.

Peach Butter.
Vi bushel peaches.
2 quarts peach juice.
2 Vi pounds sugar.
2 t&blespoonfuls ground cloves.
3 tablespoonfuls ground cinnamon.
6 quarts cider.
Cook the peaches until soft, re
move the stones and press through a
coarse sieve. Add the other ingre
dients and cook until thick, stirring
frequently to prevent burning.
The Old Gardener Says:
Questions have been asked
about the propagation of tiger
lilies without dividing the bulbs.
This is one of the few lilies that
multiply themselves by means of
little bulbils which form in the
axils of the leaves and drop to
the ground as the plants ripen.
Investigation will show many of
these black bulbils, which are
really seed pods, on established
plants. In a garden where the
tiger lily is growing, new plants
will usually come up in many
places, often where undesired.
They can be moved, but it is a
simple plan to gather the bulbils
when they are ripe and plant
them an inch deep in rows in
the garden. It is best to put a
thin layer of sand under them
if the soil is heavy. The plants
will reach blooming size in two
or three years.

Shopping in Washington
Small Stores Remaining Open on
Saturdays Offer New Gowns.
Left, two-piece dress of black crePe with blouse and
collar of blue metallic fabric; center, dark crepe with
sleeve interest and front skirt pleats; right, corded discs
and front blouse fullness are features of frock in deep
toned crepe, —Sketched in W««hin*ton Shops.
BT MARGARET WARNER.
SHOPPING notes for the last Sat
urday that the larger stores
will be closed have been taken
from smaller shops that do not
observe this custom. There are quite
a number of shops that do business
all day Saturday the year around, so
that those who find it more conven
ient to make purchases on that day
may have the privilege of doing so.
You wiU find that these shops often
do not use direct advertising, but de
! pend largely on attractive window dis
i plays to attract your attention. They
will put their best frock foremost in
a conspicuous spot for passers-by to
see just how nice a frock really can
be bought for a remarkably small sum
of money. These frocks have all the
earmarks of the latest style features,
many of them even betng copied from
more expensive models, but of neces
sity the material is not of the same
quality and the workmanship not so
meticulous.

'T'HE frock at the left in the sketch
has lots of appeal for the girl
with a slender purse who wants a
double-duty dress, for this is a two
piece model in black novelty crepe
with a Jacket that fastens in the back
for street and business wear, and a
blouse that is attached to the skirt of
pastel blue, with tiny metallic flecks
giving a dressy effect with its short
sleeves and ruffle collar. The shirring
and notched V ‘at the front of the
jacket peplum are interesting details.
Another dress for the limited budget
is a green crepe with ripple sleeves,
elbow length; a peplum giving the ef
fect of a two-piece frock and an ac

back, which is quite new and smart
looking. Another green crepe, also
with short sleeves, has a boat neck
with metal clips at the shoulders and
pointed panels of shirring on the
blouse that break the plainness in a
very pleasant way. making a useful
and practical frock that is good for
many occasions. It has one of the
new flared skirts.

band collar with inside white collar
and two little pockets below the belt.
The skirt has five front pleats. This
is also one of the Inexpensive models
at $7.
Green again we found predominat
ing in another shop, and the sketch
at the right shows corded discs that

are the focal points of gathered front

Dorothy Dix Says
Man’s Occupation Affects His Point
of View and Tastes.
IN THE questionnaire recently sub
mitted to the students in a wom
an’s college as to what line of
occupation they would like their
prospective husbands to follow, they
voted overwhelmingly In favor of the
medical profession, with hankers,
brokers and traveling salesmen fol
lowing after and preachers, once the
goal of every girl’s heart’s desire,
coming in almost at the end of the
list.
Of course, in these times of unem
ployment when a man with any sort
of a job that makes a living is the
answer to a maiden’s prayer for a
husband, girls cannot afford to be
choosy about the line of endeavor the
men they marry follow. It is any
port in a storm, and thank God for
a safe anchorage.
* a * *
]V'EVERTHELESS * man’* ““P*’
tion does have a lot to do with
his desirability as a husband, and it
is something that a girl does well to
consider before she signs up with him
as a life partner. Take doctors, for
instance, who are the hot favorites
with these college girls. Nobody will
deny that they have a special attrac
tion for the feminine sex. They are,
to begin with, well educated; they are
spotlessly clean; they are trained to
assume a sympathetic attitude, and
they are the only men on earth who
will listen with an appearance of in
terest when a woman talks about her
self, aU of which makes a hit with
women, and would apparently put
them in the three-star class as hus
bands.
Yet there are no other wives in
the world who are, as a class, so
universally jealous as doctors’ wives.
And with as little reason. For to the
average physician a woman Is not a
woman. Bhe Is just a case. His
sympathy is sold over the counter.
His interest is purely professional, and
always he sees a woman at her worst,
when she is sick and ugly and un
reasonable.
But for all that, his wife can’t help
getting green-eyed when she thinks
of him holding the hands of ladles in
pink silk and lace negliges, and so
the doctor is no man for the girl to
marry unless she has searched her
own system and Is certain she has no'
symptom of jealousy about her.
ease
PREACHERS also have always had
an especial fascination for wom
en, and any young clergyman, espe
cially if he was slim and pale and
dyspeptic looking, could always have
the pick of the feminine part of his
congregation. His line was Irresistible
because he talked to women about
their souls instead of their bodies as
other men did, and every woman gets
a morbid joy out of vivisecting her
self.
But the preachers' stock isn’t quite
so high as it used to be because, for
one thing, the modem girl Isn’t near
ly so religious as the maidens of the
past were, and, for another thing, she
has realized that a girl who marries
a clergyman marries the congrega
tion.
She has to consider how the frumps
Will like her new hat and what the
prudes think of a one-piece bathing

sisters, who will always think that Her

husband could have done so much
better If he had married them.

T AWYERS likewise have their allure,
and there are probably no women
more puffed up with pride than those
: who can address their husbands as
I "Judge,” but if a man succeeds as a
lawyer he has to be a student, and
that makes him a poor fireside com
panion. His nose must be buried in
a book instead of bent over a bridge
table, and he must sit up in brooding
silence turning over his cases in his
mind of an evening Instead of en
gaging in bright chitchat about the
neighbors and the baby's new teeth.
The wife of a famous lawyer once
told me that she never spoke to him
first for fear she might break up some
important train of thought. That
wouldn't suit the average woman who
likes the sound of her own voice.
Moreover, a lawyer must have a thou
sand secrets and know hundreds of
perfectly delicious scandals about his
clients that his wife is Just dying to
hear all about that he Won't tell her.
and if that isn’t aggravating, I ask
you.

A 8 FOR the traveling salesmen and
naval officers, they are a good
choice of husbands only for women
who are sports enough to take a 50-50
chance on marriage, secure in the
fact that no matter how things turn
out they will be happy half of the
time, either when their husbands are
at home or when they are not. And
you might play a worse Up than that,
anyway.
Take it all in all the best bet in
marriage for a woman is the business
man. He isn’t often temperamental.
He isn’t spoiled by public adulation,
and so he doesn't expect his wife to
be the queen of the Incense burners.
He knows that in every undertaking
there is bound to be losses as well as
profit and he doesn’t demand perfec
tion in the woman to whom he is
married. He is satisfied if she strikes
a good general average.
* * * *
A ND he is used to making a bargain
and sticking to it, no matter if it
isn’t all that he thought it would be,
and so he doesn't rush off to the
divorce courts every time be sees a
platinum blond who looks better than
his wife.
Naturally a man’s occupation affects
his point of view, his tastes and his
habits, and hence his desirability as
a husband. So woman does well to
consider a man's profession in picking
out a husband.

Timely Bloomer Pattern
Also Slip Design for Youngster’s
School Wardrobe.
BY BARBARA BELL.
HERE is a design that is prob
ably reaching you In just the
nick of time, for if you are a
wise parent, you are getting
all these garments ready for the
Winter. They are such simple things
to do. you can pick them up any time
you have a few moments to spare,
and once cut out, they can be sewed
up in a jiffy.
The slip is in two pieces, the body
of the garment extending up over the
shoulders, as children's slips should;
the neck being simply cut out in a
deep oval. You may edge the bottom
of the hem with a narrow lace edging,
or some of grandma's tatting. Or
you can leave it quite plain, if Mary
-Ann 1s the kind of child who comes
home from school In tatters every day.
There is Just one piece to the bloomer
pattern—no. there are re-enforce
ments, and you’d better use them, for
they help out in the wear and tear.
Bought bias binding may be used to
finish the armholes and neck of the
slip, and the bloomers are held in at
waist and lower edges by elastic.
Lawn and nainsook are used for
these little undergarments, although

if you want sturdier ones, fine cam

her school frocks.

Short Time
Ache May Be Eased
by Right Shoes and
Good Exercises.
BY LOIS LEEDS.
CUMMERTIME seems to aggravate
foot troubles. Perhaps this li
partly due to wearing light sandali
with high heels that do not give ade
quate support to the feet. Ventilated
footwear is, of course, very hygienic at
this season, but it should be chosen
with care.
The heavy girl should select the
oxford type of shoe with cutout effects
and she should not try to wear higb
heels all day. In hot weather the
shoes should be changed often nol
only to rest the feet, but to give the
shoes themselves a chance to get aired.
It is more cleanly to wear socks in
stead of wearing only shoes. The
socks should be changed at least once
a day. Even in sandals the soles ol
the feet perspire. When stockings 01
socks are not used, the insoles of the
shoe should be sponged with an anti
septic solution every day or at least
well dusted with foot powder.
Hot, tired feet are one of beauty'i
worst enemies. They sap your vitality
and cause facial wrinkles. You can
not be poised and magnetic when youi
feet are crying out for rest. Holly
wood stars understand the Importance
of foot care and each ha$ her own
recipe for keeping her feet healthy and
happy.
People who spend much of theif
time standing or walking should make
it a rule to sit with feet elevated for
a certain period every day to equalise
the circulation through feet and legs.
There is nothing new about thii
beauty hint, but it has gained fresh
point recently since milady’s feet an^
legs have come out in the limelight
for Summer sports.
Foot comfort and efficiency demand
strong muscles and correct habits of
standing and walking. Shoes should
be wider in hot weather than in cold
to allow for the natural swelling of the
feet. There should be enough room
for the toes to curl and stretch as you
walk. Five minutes a day spent on
foot exercises are worthwhile insur
ance against common foot troubles
and will also strengthen weak feet
and ankles.
The pedicure becomes as important
as the manicure when the toes are ex
posed in beach sandals. There is little
difference in procedure between thi
two except that the toenails are filed
straight across or nearly so instead oi
being given a pointed or oval shapi
like the fingernails. The same nail
varnish is used on toes and fingers,
but it is put over the entire tdfenail
with no half-moon showing. Thi
same antiseptic measures should b«
used when grooming toenails as when
manicuring.
A perfectly formed, well-pedicured
foot is a thing of beauty. Of course
corns, callouses and bunions should
not be allowed to deform it. Then
are simple home remedies for the two
first-mentioned blemishes, but, in addi
tion to removing them, you should re
move their cause. Bunions need spe
cial care, the more severe ones requir
ing surgical treatment. My leaflet,
"Care of the Feet and Legs,” gives
some tips on beauty for these mem
bers. Readers who would like copies
