She is my husband's only sister, 10 years his junior, and doesn't have any children. Can you suggest approximately how much money she should give me each month, to help pay for I| the food, in order to be fair to both of us? My husband is with the Navy and at present his ship is in the yard for repairs, down the coast from us, and will be for two months * more. We have three small chil- THE GARDEN Mrs. Patrick Glancy of Oshawa, and Mr. and Mrs. Chester Geer of Port Perry and great - grand- son of Mrs. Fred Thom of Ux- bridge and Mrs. John O'Neill of Donneyville, Ontario. CHILD GUIDANCE To be Consistent With Children Is a Good Rule for All Parents By G. CLEVELAND MYERS The theory that how strict par- ents are is less important than how consistent they are, is a common sense one. .. The tendency of parents to be inconsistent is what makes it hard for a baby to conform to some | ful necessary routines and to learn the meaning of "No." This is also true of an older child. He can't Jearn to adapt himself to desirable family regulations for protecting wonder why the spanking didn't work." But for the one time that he was spanked as he stepped off the curb unprotected, he probably did this 20, 30 or 50 times, when | he wasn't. Inconsistent spanking is not only futile, but cruel and harm- ul. Think of the little child who is shown off for a particular act or uttéfance, and then suddenly re- buked or punished later for this same deed or expression. Or the who's often been pun- the rights of other s and sharing in home chores and re- sponsibilities. For instance, the mother wish- ing to have her, youngster, two, sleep regularly fn his own crib may, on being half-awakened by his crying in the night, pull him inte bed with her, when he easily | is comforted. There he may stay all night. Several days later, with an| erupting tooth or a cold or tummy ache, he may be restless during the night, and the mother takes him into bed with her again. Fearing that she may have begun a nuisance, this mother may re- fuse to let him stay with her next time he cries out in the night. Shes even may have the fortitude to let him cry himself back to sleep. But on a later night, she may succumb again. Over a period of months the contest may continue--the mother giving in sometimes, holding out sometimes. The chances are great that the youngster will gradually win. Indeed, he may soon demand that he always stay with his | mother. Young mothers should | know that a little child has even more regard for precedent than the | judge of a court, and that what she does to please him once, he is inclined to expect her to keep on doing. Many a toddler from two to five is sometimes spanked for running | into the street, and his parents! J ished by his parents for something he does, but repeats the same thing two hours later right in the sight and hearing of this parent without even a rebuke. Or of the child given permission to do today what he is sternly forbidden to do tomorrow. It's wonderful when a child, two or fifteen, can count on each par- ent to be consistent, knowing be- forehand how this parent will re- spond to anything the child does | or says, and that he can always count on the promises of both his parents. ICE CREAM SURPRISE Here's a new way, suggested by | the Woman's Home Companion, to] fix two old favorites--vanilla ice cream and fudge sauce. Spread a layer of vanilla ice cream in re- frigerator tray, pour on your fav- | orite fudge sauce, top with more | vanilla ice cream, freeze and serve | in slices. DRAPES - CURTAINS. VENETIAN SHADES EIYRS 450. E dren and I shall keep the house here, but I expect to stay much of this time with my husband--in a navy house, we hope. Janet will accompany me, as she doesn't want to stay here by herself. Should I pay for her meals on the trip, and for lodgings. If we don't get the navy house right away? Janet plans to get a job when we come back, after my hus- band's ship leaves. Meantime she is a big help to me and nice com- pany. Also, the children are fond of her. But I don't think the twenty- five dollars monthly she gives me is sufficient to cover everything, including entertainment. When we go out, to restaurants or movies, she doesn't suggest paying her share. So what can my husband do but pay for her? We are devoted to her, naturally but Julian has his own family to think of now and, at present prices, the load isn't light. Thank you for any help. RG NOT FAIR DEAL Dear R. G.: Considering the cir- cumstances, Janet's contribution of twenty-five dollars a month falls far short of a fair deal for you, in my opinion. It seems preposter- ous that she would take for granted meals, lodgings, home privileges, free entertainment--and even, pos- sibly, travel expenses--as coming to her in return for such token payment. As the wife of an airman first class, overseas, she gets a sub- sistence check of ninety-one dol- lars and thirty cents monthly from her husband's pay. And I figure that approximately fifty dollars of this should be ear-marked for board and room--whether she pays it to you, or disburses it in a differ- ent arrangement. I doubt that Janet could be adequately fed, on her own, for less than ten dollars a week on the average, whether she ate in as- sorted restaurants, cooked for her- self or patronized a boarding house. And the going rate for decent board-and-lodgings is probably more than she could pay, without getting a job to supplement her Army check. NOT A DEPENDENT The fact that you find her a pleasant person to have around, an able helper, good with the children, doesn't absolve her of obligation to pay her way, accord- w.v411:% ; SENSATIONAL Mid-Summer Clearance SA LE Continues With Greater Values Than Ever! ~ Listed here are only a few of the many, many exciting bargains you'll find on display!

Moreover, when a fair rate is agreed upon-- say a basic forty-five or fifty dol- lars a month--it certainly should- n't be understood as covering in- cidental eating-out, commercial en- tertainment, travel costs and the like. When ' Janet is out with your family group, for an evening in town, or as a fellow traveler, she' is neither your guest nor your fin- ancial dependent. She is a self- sustaining adult, presumably, and as such should offer (and be pre- pared) to meet her incidental ex- penses, unless you expressly ask to pay for her. If she fags along on visits to your husband, just because she dislikes being alone, the costs of her meals, lodgings, etc., are her lookout. I see no reason why you should pay for her childish whims in that regard. It is her extravagance, to 'be in- dulged only if she can afford it.

Canadian Ex-Mayor Plants Pine Tree In Scottish Town The bond of friendship between Canada amd Scotland was further strengthened last month when ex- mayor Hubert Badanai of Fort William, Ontario, planted a pine tree in Fort William, Scotland. The act was symbolic of the friendship formed between the two tonws when the late ex-provost Simon McDonald of Fort William, Scotland, paid a visit to the Cana- dian namesake town on the Queen Mary's maiden voyage in 1936. Mr. Badanai, who was accom- panied by his wife, was given a civic welcome and afterwards entertained to dinner by the lo- cal Town Council. He gave a promise that every five years H.|a "member of his family would visit Fort William, Scotland, to see how the tree was growing and take a picture of it back to Can- ada. - THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Thursday, July 16, 1058 ¥ Caution children against trying | ground or hanging from poles. to remove anything in contact If possible, an adult should stand with electric lines, and against | guard over fallen lines until the téuching broken lines on the | power can be, shut off.
