Training Little Children ARTICLE XLIV—BY MRS. EDITH CLARK COWLES. From the instant a mother hears that first significant cry yvhich pro claims to the world the birth of a new life, she is confronted by a prob lem which increases in complexity with the passing of the years. If she is a busy mother, and most mothers are busy, she will soon realize that upon the early habits of her baby will depend her ability to fulfill her many duties. She can train the baby to be entirely dependent upon her dur ing his waking hours, and thus let him become the spoiled child who later de velops into a family nuisance, or she can begin even when he is in his tiny crib to sow the seed of self-reliance, which will make of him the responsi ble and desirable citizen. She would not be guilty of pulling up the sprout 'no plant to se c if it was growing! why carry her baby about in her arms or hold him in her lap when he can kick and crow so much more freely in his own bed ? The baby who is bathed, fed, given his nap regularly, allowed freedom in which to grow and not hampered by too much attention will deve'op into a healthy, happy, helpful child and be a joy to his parents and a pie sure to their friends The Children's Rureau at Washington furnishes, upon re quest, bulletins relating to the food, general care and physical training of the infant. As baby's mind develops he will need diversion and amusement. For this purpose toys are useful) which do not have sharp edges and which can he washed and kept sterile. A ball or rattle for the baby to kick may be hung from his crib cr carriage, but it : "U S AN III WIND --" W - Wi h ' ff ////, lyii & X $ > / m r 4W m së wwv Y . 7 $ , ^ / .W \ \ \ j rc / k ^ / - es*sf§ . **—* "ii. $/i /''omas + FASHION NOTES + Voile is a fairly new fabric for lingerie, but it has already in the few months that it has been used for undergarments gained a firm prestige. A new shade of brown is Cordo van brown—a reddish shade supposed to be like old Cordovan leather, it is a rich, warm tone that adequately lives up to the Spanish not e suggest ed by the name. Frocks of velvet, devoid of trim ming and cut on slim, youthful lines, are a pleasing mode of the moment, draped girdles and draped collars of the frock material being the stri kingly new features. Rose-colored and white crepe ef fectively combined were developed into a charming girlish frock by Lan vin, the unique feature of which is its low V neck at the back and slightly rounded line in front. Short negligees, of course, are fea tured, but some of the very attract ive new rest robes of Georgette and chiffon and tulle show long trains, sometimes fan shape, sometimes sim ply long ends of the fabric trailing at the back. Although some of the new blouses show collars, still most of them are of the collarless variety with a roll ing effect at the back. American women have found this line infinitely becoming, and they are insisting on its continuance with a persévérant e that is really commendable. Shawl collars, narrow at the neck and tapering almost to a point at the waistline, are becoming to all figures and such collar will finish any sort of bodice with front surplice fast ening very easily. The pique shawl must be hung at an angl c which will not produce eye-strain. From earliest infancy the child dis plays a spirit of investigation which it is well always to gratify. If possible, never leave this question unanswered. If you lack th e information, say that you do not know but will find out and tell him; and'keep your word. Few parents realize that they typify to the child the spirit of omniscence which God typifies to them, and that it be hooves them constantly to strengthen such faith. The child who finds that he can depend upon what his parents fell him is less apt in his turn to de ceive them, and the s:'ed of mutual understanding and confidence Is thus sown, to sprout and bloom for all time. • The spirit of investigation often leads children into the habit of touch ing every object they see. This is not always naughtiness and should not be so stigmatized. A baby's attention can be diverted from one object to an other, while older children will desist from investigation as soon as their curiosity is satisfied. Rut if they are told unqualifiedly that a certain object must not be touched, thev seem im pelled by an irrfsistible force to handle that object in preference to all others. 1't is well to keep in mind the advantage to be gained hv positive suggestion. Divert the child's mind by mentioning something which he may dc. rather than strengthen his defrm inaticn by a peremptory command as to what he may not.do.

Just why the patriotic woman should feel the need of having her lingerie of khaki color it is hard to see. The fact is that the corset of khaki color has been launched, and it seems to have an appeal for certain women, who find it more appropri ate when doing Red Cross work or other military work to wear sta\ s of this military color.
