HARD T0 GET UP IN THE MORNING?

sleepyheads can tame that stub- born foe 0f the morning, the alarm clock, by doing just a few nun- utes‘ “getting up" exercises in bed.

You need them when the bell gives you a dreadful jolt and you have to get up though you have-tut had enough sleep. And if you're one who habituulv has the im- pulse to reach out and shut off the alarm and go back to sleep ex- ercise might help you break the habit. Try it for seven mornings in a row’.

After tilrning off the alarm, drink :1 tall glass of water, then get back into bed. But instead of covering up and falling asleep again, stretch your feet toward the footboaid, fold your arms across your chest, and keeping ankles together, lift legs tipwnrd till they're almost per- pendicular. Then lower legs as slow- ly as you can.

Now sit up and lean forward. touching toes with hands. Relax Repeat three times.

Now. get out. of bed and stand with feet wide apart. Breathe deeply, lifliiig hands overhead as you inhale, lovrering hands as you exhale. Let the chest cavity ex- pand at the sides as your lungs fill -don't encourage the chest to heave up and down.

‘These motions stimulate the cir- culation and wake you up. If you still feel any lackadatsical hesita- tion to be out and active. rinse your face and throat with very cold wat- er until the skin is pink and ting- ling. Dip a washcloth in the ivnt-

er and press it firmly against the eyes, mouth and brow

PARENTS TOLD TO EXTEND _ GOLDEN RULE TO CHILDREN

Many Are S0 Calloused That They Ridicule Their Youngsters In Public

.-

_

It would be a wholesome, spiritual exercise for parents now and flifkfl. to pu: themselves in their children's places and see how ‘they W0111d 9 to be treated bv some domestic overlord the way they treat their YO-“llll; stcrs. Very few mothers and fathers are intentionally unkind to t-h children. but many are brutal to them through sheer stupidity and thousht lcssness.

They have the idea that children are some sort of unclassified fail-Kw- with hides like a rhinoceros. so thick that no barb can pleffie them. and they have strange habits and tastes that make them enjoy b81118 Bimb- ltsd in public and having their peculiarities discussed in their presencei

me.»- and that they don't mind being balked and ma“ ’ and lied to and disappointed.

They know perfectly well that they would commit mayhem upon the person of anyone who would point out their peculiarities to the gaping crowd, and would never forgive anyone who made them promises they did not even intend to keel?- But they expect Clllldf-En to take it and like it. vet a child is the most sensitive creature on earth rind the one most helpless and least cap- azbie of drfendlng itself.

Why so many otherwise intelligent people. into whose hands _God has mistakenly intrusted children. ignore this palpable fact, no one knows. Yet they do. the common custom, for instance". for grown-ups to discuss a child in his presence as freely as they would discuss a horse ' - - ‘ or a dog, apparently under the ImDIfES-Sivfl 751133 little Jchnrrv is a deaf idiot who dossirt understand what it 1S all H-bOUt. But he docs and it crucifles him when Aunt Sally comments that he looks small for his age and takes after his Mother's family who were all runty. cr when Uncle John remarks that he must be backward in hh studies 1f he is only in the third grade.

IHRENTS PERMIT TORTURE

Father and Mother stand coinplaceully bv while this torture is going on and make no efiort to stop it: yet imagine what Father would do if anibortv told hlin to his face that he was a miserable-looking little half- pint-size manikin. And what Mother would sny to anyone who dared even silage-st that she looked like homely old Cousin Eliza would be a- plcnly. _

Thereare even parents so calloused that they hold their children up as latiehlng stocks for the amusement of their guests. All of_us have scen children writhe in agony while Father set the dinner-table in a roar by relating some blunder that Tommy had made or repeating some artless qurstion that Dicky had asked. Worse still, we have known a Mother to make a funny storr about Mamies shy confidence to her about the boy whose desk was next to hers at school. Once I even heard a Mother read aloud h'r little girl's first love letter to a guffavling crowd of grown-ups.

Now perhaps there are people with such an overgrown sense 0f humor tsat thcv euior a joke on themselves and are willing to be made to look ritli lo s for the entertainment of their fellow crea ures, but if they are any . . A. 1 have never met them. We like people to laugh with us. but nct at u": and Father would no more enjoy having his blunders dragged forth to m-ike a Ramon holiday for his acquaintances than little Jimmy do". l ."r would he just as much stabbed to the quick as little Sally ' her sacred confidences betrayed.

_ Most parents do not regard a promise to a child as binding. They will promise the children to take them to the movies or on a picnic on S u. riav c: to give them a bicycle or a doll, or whatever the childish ' ct on.
