ADJUSTMENT OF GROWING CHILD
T HERE are two common expert
ences that, no matter how many
times we go through them, we can’t
imagine ahead just how disrupting
/ they will be. One is the discomfort
of excessive heat, the other is the
adjustment to the change from a
quiet, sleeping baby to a creeping
or toddling bundle of energy. When
they happen to you at the same
time, it’s a saintly mother indeed
who can keep from giving in to ex
asperation.
4: But if you were learning to fly
j would a hot day keep you out of
j. the air? It is the same with baby—
% the excitement of getting from one
^ spot to another under his own
^ steam is enough to make him for-
get the heat. So just when you
v. want to be as still as possible,
!| baby will catch on to some new
^ trick of manipulating arms and
f legs to increase his speed—and off
he goes with you after him.
You’ll save yourself wear and
tear- if you give up trying to
keep the creeping baby still,
but arrange some quiet periods
for yourself In the midst of his
activity. Don’t count on a baby
pen for this because the creep
ing child needs cruising range.
But try to arrange at least one
room in the house so - that
the baby can be left by himself
in it, with occasional interested
visits from mother to check on
a sense of companionship.
' If you have a dining room why
not turn it into a nursery for the next
few months? Dining room furniture
is usually sturdy and provides
plenty of anchorage for baby’s
practice in pulling himself up to
standing position. Linoleum or a
washable rug makes a safe floor
covering, plant stands and any
other flimsy furniture can be moved
to another room for the time be- :
ing and sash-length curtains can
be substituted for to-the-floor hang
ings. The dining room being close
to the kitchen you can do your
kitchen work without baby under
foot, and yet he’ll be close enough
to save you steps when it’s time
for a look-see.
The kitchen, too, is good crawl
ing territory if there is room for
both of you. Perhaps you could
fence yourself into the stove-sink-
icebox area with chairs laid on
their sides, and leave the rest of
the room to the chief exponent of
the don’t fence me in policy. The
kitchen is also the best spot for wa
ter play, one of the few activities
that will successfully woo the creep
er into semi-quiet. For the inevita
ble overflow, spread a piece of oil
cloth on the floor. (In winter you
might cover baby with an oil cloth
apron, too, to keep him from get
ting chilled before you qan get dry
clothes on him.) A shallow dish pan
is the baby’s lake and bath tub
toys his boats. A child old enough
to creep will want to pour the wa
ter from one container to another.
Tin cans whose edges are smooth
will do, or a small double boiler is
sure to please.
The play pen does have its place
during the creeping period—and
that place is outdoors. For the
creeper is too young to be turned
loose in a fenced-in portion of the
yard since he is apt to eat dirt and
pebbles. Besides the play pen keeps
the child off the damp earth. Here
he can take his outdoor airing,
even his nap, with a minimum of
supervision from mother.
Yes, with planning mothers can
give themselves breathing spells
even during the time when the
child prefers not to be still a min
ute!
"HOW TO WIN FRIENDS and
Author
INFLUENCE
HE PROVED HIS WAY TO FAME
A YOUNG man in his 20s hit on one of the most profound:
truths in all human psychology. When you want to con-r
vince a man, don’t tell him. Show him. ‘
The young man was Philo T. Farnsworth, and he wasf
trying to raise money for a television invention. He got the j
idea as a boy living on a farm near Rigby, Utah, and was^
going to high school. As he rode back and forth to school^
on the back of an old farm horse, he worked on his tele-^
vision idea. \
He was so interested in electricity that he bought a ten-*
volume encyclopedia—a dollar down—and a dollar a month ^
until he owned it. - .. .J
The idea for television without the use of moving
parts came to him as a freshman. He so earnestly
believed in this idea that he set to work to perfect it.
He m'ade others believe in it, too, and at last was
able to interest two capitalists in putting up the
money. But the working out of the television meth- |
od took longer than Philo Farnsworth had expect-
ed, and it took more money, too. But he did have a
crude machine which would televise.
Finally a friend said he would bring a banker to see him;
and that the banker might put up the money.
V Philo Farnsworth was delighted. If he could win this I
man over, then he could go on with his work. Television |
was almost in his grasp. Now he could lay his hands on it. [
He went to the banker and put up a good talk. But you j
know bankers! The boy was so young that his age was}
against him. Besides the banker couldn’t understand the \
scientific end. Philo went over and over this for the cool ^
and indifferent banker. And got nowhere. i
Finally the banker turned to him and said, “Is there any j
money in this pick : up tube?” Philo had explained that, but'
the banker hadn’t grasped it. j
Philo thought a moment, then went to a sheet of glass \
and drew a dollar sign—$. Meanwhile the banker sat watch-,
ing, wondering what young Philo had in mind and why he.
didn’t answer the question. Then Philo started the machin- 1
ery, and, to the banker’s astonishment, the dollar sign was!
projected on another screen. >
