ALI). dd L PREVENTING CHILDREN'S EMOTIONAL DISTURBANCES It was found after World War I that children born during that war were highly emotional. They were found to be bright and clever, but unstable emotionally. Our general physicians and psy- chiatrism are finding that there is more emotional instability or emo- tional disorders in our population than ever before. In the guest edi- torial of the Year Book Pediatrics some months ago, Dr. llarry Bak- win, of New York City, states that the recent concern about the rela- tively great number of cases of emotional disorders has caused an intensification of inquiry into those factors which increase healthy emotional development. Thus wider parenthood cducatiun extending into school and college cunlculums. a relaxation of many of the rigidities of infant and ch.ld care of the past, a new enthusiasm for breast feeding of infants and a growing interest and demand forpchndgv rooming-in arrangements for moiiicr and infant are evidence of increasing interest in minimizing or decreasing emotional d;soi'ders. This means that the family phy- siclan has a large role to play in aiding parents to help their child- ren to develop into natural every- day boys and girls and so become normal men and women. Dr. Bakwin further points out that the family physician. when consulted about behavior disorders in children, should remember that behavior disorders may result from real or oi-coiiic disturbances of brain and ncrvcs as well as from disturbed interpersonal relations Bll0llGHIA!.

Thus the unrecognized slow-learning child may be put under pressures in both home and school so that he pre- sents adjuslment difficulties. Simi- larly the very bright child in the regular school setting may become bored and disinterested in his studies and may show behavior disturbances to provide an outlet for his energy. In some cities the very bright children receive special attention just as do the backward or retarded children to prevent this restlessness or boredom.

OROT Frownsllnjer Child Widow Worried Over Adiuslmenf Between Son And New Husband DEAR MISS DIX: In a few weeks I am marrying Fred, and I am afraid of trouble between him and my seven-year-old son. Larry. So far they have gotten along pretty well together, but there are indications that this fellcitous state will not last. I have been a widow for four years, and since I had to work to support the boy. I boarded him with a family in the suburbs. only on week-ends. Muriel Nlaacn stepfather with all the spirit of a born rt-Jormer. and poor Larry is in the middle trying to fathom the meaning of all the sudden activ- ity around him. The child has already gone through one great period of readjust- ment after his father's death, when he had to learn to do without both father and mother in ii new family environment; now he is going through the whole process again. gentle with the boy and give him a chance to get his bearings. my son and myself. ' ' Consequently, I saw him Now there is an adjustment to be made between I have given up my job and in the few weeks I've had Larry to myself 1 real- ize he has been babied. This is Fred's chief objec- tion to him. He claims that Larry should be much more grown up, and is trying to push him too far. I feel that the adjustment should be made grad- ually. Fred fecls Larry should begin to be inde- pendent at once. Larry gets along very well in school. has many friends, and has always made a favorable impression on adults. ANSWER: OLIVIA H. Larry seems to be in for a series of adjustments that would try the average adult. You're taking your required duties of motherhood too seriously, Fred is assuming the obligations of a Bath you and Fred should be more You wouldn't expect to uproot an adult and have him merge into new surroundings with no perceptible struggle; why expect a youngster to accomplish the Impossible? Before you marry Fred it should be clearly understood between you just exactly what your respective relations to Larry will be. Fred. as theanewly acquired father, certainly should have some say in the rearing and disciplining of the boy. but his responsibility should not include tyrannical tactics. A seven-year-old is barely out of baby- hood. and should not be expected to not like a man. The transition should come gradually. and if the child has been babied in his foster home, don't expect him to change overnight and suddenly become n self-possessed, self-reliant person. training. not suddenly. Q TACT AND LOVE NEEDED These things come through patient Your little triangle has all the makings of a domestic tempest, and it will take tact and deep love to keep the angles in their places. proper There is almost always a difficult situation to overcome in second niarrlages that involve children: a natural jealousy eklsts be- tween the child and step-parent and each is inclined to regard the other as an lnterlcpcr. Handling both of them in H manner to keep everyone placated and happy is a grueling task for a woman. Keeping in close touch with Larry's teachers will help you fol- low his progress, and she also will give you particular advice as to whether or not he is adjusted at his own age level. If. in the opinion of his teachers. he measure: up to other children of his age. don't try to "change him. Nature will take care of progression in her own time-tested manner.

I have been going steady with a girl for al- Sht-'ll be out Do you Why are glrls' parents so un- They do not want" us to go steady. N. D. E. ANSWER: Your extremely well-written letter certainly proves that you are more mature and intelligent than most boys of 16, and have earned the right to date a girl it year older. Parents who impose such restrictions. described by you as "old- fashioned," are really just guarding the welfare of their child. There's nothing unreasonable about that. Your girl has generous dating priv- ileges. andher parents are quite right to frown on "going steady” at your respective ages. You'd do well to cultivate some other girls. but if you Insist on sticking to this one. prove your maturity by ac- ceding to her parentiv wishes.

We came upon it under the head- ing of "How to Enjoy the Han- piest Day of Your Life." by J. 1". Newton. It said: "We can do any- thing for one day. So just for to- day, let us be unafraid of life, un- afraid of death which is the sha- dow of life; unafraid to be happy, to enjoy the beautiful, to behave the best." "Just for today let us live one day only, forgetting yesterday and tomorrow, and not trying to solve the whole problem of life at once.

How can I thoroughly clean a. tobacco pipe? A. Soak the pipe in cold coffee for an hour, cleaning out the stem with pipe c1eaners.o'1'he coffee will soften the caked material in the bowl, which may then be pried loose with a blunt instrument. Stale pipes can always be cured with this treatment. Q. 1-low can I be sure of an even color when using a soap dye? A. When tinting garments with a soap dye, put the cake of soap into a shaker and shake in the water until it is the shade desired. This insures an even dye and clean hands. ., Q.
