In the realm of Interior decoration these pictures hsve become quite a factor. Young girls are particularly keen about them for their rooms. Far that matter they are equally as attractive bung on the walls of liv ing room or sun parlor—it depends upon the subject of the portrait For his "den" a smiling little Jap anese maiden dressed tn gorgeous ki mono brings Into the scheme of things Just the needed dash of color. A dimpled babe cuddled under a cov erlid of flowered crepe paper In a lace-draped crib Is Just the thing for the nursery. A daintily arrayed maiden, whose frock and parasol are I ace-ruffled, like the one In this illustration lends an atmosphere of enchantment to the young girl's boudoir. You can get the entire paraphernalia for the making of these charming i^Ares most any where, that Is, ^^®any counter where they sell fancy crepe pa per for flower making and such. In other words the dealer supplies the materials in “sets” so to speak (and they are not expensive) and you do the work (It's more like play) of dressing the quaint maiden In a beflowered crepe paper frock arltb myriads of lace ruffles, ready for her debut In the picture, which Is to hang on your wall or that of some friend whom you wish to delight with this charming gift You can mount these picture dolls on black velvet or black cardboard, and when framed appropriately they are a work of art craft of which to be proud.

How Should the mother deni with the child who refuses to obey? First, by understanding the causes of the re fusal and then by trying to avoid sit uations which stimulate the child's tendency to say “No” to a request For Instance, since it Is true that the very young child must come to un derstand his world by experimenta tion and to a large extent by the ex ercise of the sense of touch, the wise mother will remove from his surround ings bric-a-brac, perfume bottles and other unnecessary objects dear to adults, and see that in these early years he Is allowed the important right to Investigate free from con stantly inhibiting “Nos!” and “Don’ts ! M That after-graduation slump can be avoided 1 Parents seem unconscious of the difficulties of readjustment which the boy and girl Just out of high school encounter and so fall to offer them the sympathy and under standing as well as the encourage ment which they need. Of course, they have plans for the fall, but the important thing Is to have definite plans for the summer. Don't let your children feel the emptiness, the over whelming loneliness that comes when they Bsfe before them no definite, vital program. Plan with fcjiem and for fllem a nappy constructive summer of growth and achievement and make them feel that graduation is not an end hut In a practical sense a com mencement. Shoes for the child who Is just be ginning to walk are essentially for protective covering only. The normal foot needs nothing more. Learning to wnlk may take place a few days faster with the steadying Influences of stiff-soled shoes, but shoes are not necessary to the learning process. A baby has no foot arches to speak of until the kindergarten age Is reached; so arch supports and corrections In any except extreme esses are super fluous. This is also true of supports which are known as “stiff ankles.* • Good elbctrlc lighting In your borne Is always the result of cateful fore thought and plentiful provision for expansion and change. It Is better to have a few extra outlets than to have too few. A psychology professor at one of the biggest universities In the East was asked whether he thought the boy who has been raised on the farm or the city boy better prepared to make the most of his possibilities In life. He replied. “The farm tyoj Is better equipped. He Is trained from con stant outdoor life to note details—he is keen, be knows and can understand Instantly such things as cause and effect He Is resourceful He has a knowledge of how things work. He Isn't afraid of dirt or work, and he has a sound body nine times out of ten.” SOME SUMMER MENUS gz-OMETIMES you want to cat indoors in summer, sometimes you want to eat outdoors-—on the porch or lawn, or at a picnic in the woods—and sometimes, when it’s very hot, you just can’t think of anything you want to eat any where.
