CLEVELAND MYERS Children under eight or ten like $0 talk about themselves in rela- tion to their parents and others. From time to time I have writ- ten editorials to 'children about get- ting along with their parents and other youngsters. From various sources I find that this type of thing is popular with children from three to twelve. I'd like to relay of one of these simple talks. You may wish to read it to your preschool child, or let your older child read it. DANGEROUS THINGS "As soon as you began to creep and walk, you wanted to go places and have tl s that held danger for you. You also wanted to handle things you ht harm. Your par- ents had to keep watching you and explaining to you. Sometimes they had to say 'No.' they even may have had to slap your hands or spank you to make you mind. And after you were three or four, they may have made you sit in a chair for punishment. Even now, parents may have to say No to you, and even punish you at times. "At such times you may bi | and feel angry. But as you th "about this matter, you see they were only being kind to you. They were teaching you to be safer, to let. alone what you shouldn't have, and to keep from doing what you should not do. OTHER PERSONS' RIGHTS "They were helping you to learn to respect the rights of other per- sons, so other persons might like Psychologist you. You don't like persons who take things or harm them, or bother you and don't mind their own business. "Your father and mother are so fond of you and love you so much that they want other people to like you, and to speak well of you. It makes your parents Dappy when they hear some of their friends say that you acted well at their home or on the street, at a store or at school. And it makes your father and mother very proud of you when they hear other persons say you have good manners. But how sad and worried your parents are when they hear that you have not acted well. HOW BIG MUST YOU BE? "Once you were so young and little that your mother or father had to feed you, dress you, bathe you and do ever so many things for you. But now that you are getting so big, you can do some or all these things yourself.

Print | drug Fears Loose Morals If Skirts Shorter By MARJORIE EARL LONDON (Reuters) -- Shorter skirt fashions are a sure sign that the world is about to plunge into an era of loose morals, broken homes and inflation, London mu- seum official James Laver said Friday night. From his dusty office in the Vic- toria and Albert Museum, Laver offered historical evidence of his theory. The 53-year-old scholar has written dozens of books on the re- lation of fashions to morals and economics through the ages. He said Paris designer Christian Dior who has just decreed short- ened skirts and banished waist- lines, is "a medium' capable of sensing intuitively the morals of | the future. "He can see what's coming be- fore it's visible to anyone else," Laver said. "Don't let anyone tell you it's all a racket e ither. Sales Promotion has nothing to do with "Dior doesn't invent new styles just to make a fortune for the dress manufacturers. He merely interprets what's in the air." Laver shook his head sorrow- fully at thoughts of the future. He said it will bring more 'female emancipation," more headaches for husbands--more trouble for everybody. "The smooth line and the short- ened skirt mean promiscuity," he said. "On the other hand, tight- laced eras are characterized by tight-laced clothes." Shuffling through sheafs of his- torical records, Laver said that the chief periods of moral laxity in modern history occurred in 1600 after the French Revolution and in 1925 after the First World War. Clothes in both periods were smooth and the waist "was in the wrong place," he said.

Central Press Canadian HOLLYWOOD HIGHLIGHTS Called Publicity-Exhibitionist Leigh Replies to Critics Janet By BOB THOMAS y HOLLYWOOD (AP)--The lady seemed just about ready to blow her blonde wig. She was that mad. This was Janet Leigh. She was beautifully irate in a honey hairdo that made her look surprisingly like Betty Grable. The fake hair was for her role in Prince Valiant and she had to dye her own tresses the same color so they wouldn't show underneath. . But that wasn't what made her mad. It was some things that had been printed about her and her ndsome hubby, Tony Curtis. an, unkind things. Like calling the Curtises publicity-mad exhibit- ionists who are never happy un- less a camera lens is prying into their lives. When such comments appeared in a couple of magazines, Janet composed a scorching letter. "Then I had somebody correct the spelling and I sent it off," she declared. "Oh, I'm so mad!" And well she might be. Last year she and Tony were the first hus- band and wife team to win the an- nual pat on the back from the Hollywood women's press club. They won the golden apples for being the most co-operative stars. Now come the blasts that the Curtises are too co-operative. It's a bitter pill to Janet, who thought she was pleasing everybody. She had some interesting com- ments on the fishbowl life of a movie star. "Publicity is an important part of the business of being a movie performer," she observed. "Mind you, we don't" think it's the most important part, as some critics claim we believe. "Nothing, but nothing, is more important to us than our work. After all, that's the payoff, the reason for the movie business, what appears up there on the screen. "Okay, so you can help sell per- sonalities via publicity. But you have to give something, once you get the people inside the theatre. If they think you're a lousy per- former, you're through, brother. "Neither Tony nor I will allow anything to interfere with our work and that goes for publicity, too. If some publicity assignment comes up while I'm on a picture and I can do it without any trouble, okay, fine. But if it inter- feres with what I have to do in front of the cameras, I ask if it can't be postponed until after the end of the. picture." Janet said she even volunteers to come in after the end of the film at no charge to the company. Most other glamor girls would charge $1,000 a day to do publicity requests. Cold Drinks Fulfill Two-Fold Purpose On hot summer days, what is more refreshing than to stretch out under the shade of a big tree with a tall cool drink by your side! If you have actually lost the desire for solid food, then be sure to drink cool drinks that are not only thirst- quenchers but are also wholesome 'oods. The home economists of the Consumer Section, Canada De- partment of Agriculture point out that cold drinks can fulfill a two- fold purpose. They can be refresh- ing and at the same time very nourishing. Does your family like egg nogs or do they think of them as a food for invalids? A plain egg nog made of milk, egg and flavouring can be as cool, tempting and satisfying as any other drink. A plain egg nog is very good but the flavour may be varied by substituting fruit juice for all or part of the milk and by beating in either a whole egg or the beaten white. If the whole egg is being used, it is best to mix the fruit juice with the beaten yolk and then, just before serving, fold in the beaten white. Raspbery' juice is particularly good used in this way and apricot nectar or grape juice will give an egg nog a party air. Cool, appetizing and always a favourite with adults is cafe au lait. This is hot coffee mixed with plenty of hot milk, then chilled and served icy cold. It is a simple drink, easy to make and just the thing to serve to summer guests. Sponging with a Soapy Cloth Will Keep Your Summer Bag Fresh and Bright By ELEANOR ROSS Maybe you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, as the old adage has it, but designers have made summer bags from practi- cally everything else--new surfac- ed plastics, denim, sailcloth, linen, toyo, wood, Panama straw, syn- thetic straw, straw cloth and even chintz, not to mention patent leath- er, real and synthetic, plus: some handsome leathers. If you've given a little thought in selecting yours, chances are that all the care it needs is soap and water. Whether it's a bucket shape, a slim, elongated purse, a satchel or a shoulder strap model, it's probably very colorful -- pink, blue, yellow or beige. Black and white and a combination of the two are still high favorites, too. Plastic calf, patent and decorated clear plastic have been smartly handled and made up into bags with nice low price-tags. There are smart unlined hand- bags of nylon-cotton fabric and a range of slip cover styles. These can be swished right through suds and rinsed. Your summer handbag has to be kept fresh and bright to look pretty. Start by brushing the lin- ing well before going over the bag with a soapy cloth, followed by a damp one. This season, it is ex- pecially important to keep the lin- ing spotless, for it's likely to be as colorful as the b ag. Now apply these suds to the ex- terior of the bag, using a fast, light touch and doing but one sec-'| tion at a time. Take a sponge or soft cloth to leather and fabric, a soft brush to surfaced plastic, because dust and dirt collect in the indentations. After washing a section, go over it with a clean, damp cloth, continuing until the whole bag has been sudsed and rinsed. USE LITTLE WATER Always use a minimum of water on handbags. Too much moisture isn't good for leather and may loosen the backing of a fabric bag And don't let a_puse get grimy before applying the suds--the dirt- ier the bag, the harder to get it clean again. When clean, stuff with tissue paper or a towel and let dry in the shade. If you want to give a fabric. bag an extra finishing touch, go over it with a steam iron held a bout an inch above the surface. It's s mart to apply a suitable polish or dressing on a clean, dry leather bag. And, while you're at it, give bag contents a going-over, too. Buying Plane Solves Problem Of Loneliness LONESOME LAKE, B.C. (CP)-- Much of the lonesomeness has been taken away from Lonesome Lake. Gertrude (Trudy) Edwars, 24, one of three persons living beside this isolated lake, 300 air miles northwest of Vancouver has solved the transportation problem by buy- ing her own aircraft and learning to fly. The plane means that M. and Mrs. Ralph Edwards and their daughter no longer will have to trek 20 miles over rugged moun- tain trails to Atnarko every time they want their mail and gro- ceries. Atnarko is a village of six persons 40 miles over the moun- tains from Bella Coola. When Trudy decided to ease the isclation at Lonesome Lake, where her father is migratory bir war- en, it took her five days to reach Vancouver to begin her flying lessons. She started a whirlwind flying course in May and then bought a sleek single-engined aircraft equipped with floats. After being checked out on float-flying she left Vancouver for home. "The trip home normally took five days by bat and walking," said Trudy with a happy grin. "Now it's 2% hours." One of Mr. Ewards' chief jobs as bird warden at Lonesome Lake is to keep a careful check on the bulk of the trumpeter swans left in B.C. The two swans presented to Queen Elizabeth last year were caught at their winter grounds ere. Washable gloves should always be 'laundered before soil has a chance to penetrate. If 'dirt works below the surface of the fabric it will be difficult to remove. Rubber squeegees (such as pro- fessional window washers use) save time and labor when window washing is in order, and are not expensive. Velveteen is washable, even the bright - colored velveteen heels on novelty stockings. To keep the pile squeezing or twisting in either the suds or rinses.

Interesting Pieces of Furniture Are Highlight of Designers' Displays By ELEANOR ROSS Clothes designed for the season ahead have been shown and well received, and now furniture fash- ions are having their place in the critical spotlight. Soon enough the stores will be unveiling model dis- plays, but in the meantime, various manufacturers and designers are showing some interesting pieces. Designed for a store that special- zes in fine contemporary design is a new collection that, although described as Japanese in inspira- tion, harks back more to Chinese and perhaps Korean design tradi- tions than to those of the Japanese. But every piece, whatever its in- spiration, is handsome and would fit perfectly into a modern. layout. TWO FINISHES For this showing, the pieces are shown in a setting that approxi- mates a three-room city apart- ment: The furniture is birch, done either in a medium finish or a dark color. Bright, chunky, brass- finished hardware has an Orien- tal look about it, something like Chinese writing, come to think of it. Pandamus cloth and cane, both lacquered to match the wood, make an interesting textured trim for chest fronts and table tops. There is one piece that is a honey--a large chest with a pull- out shelf and three drawers on the center. On either side of this is a tambour arrangement that pulls up, and under it is an extra drawer. On top of the chest, the decorator has placed a miniature "treasure chest" of an intriguing design. It has three drawers with handsome, heavy brass handles. COFFEE TABLES Also much admired were two coffee tables--one a long, narrow rectangle with a square, sled-like base. It has a lower tier of wood, and an upper one of glass several {inches shorter than the wooden shelf. This design has been re- peated in a lamp and corner table. Also Oriental in feeling is & cof- fee table that is a circle of wood with an inset section of cane. The legs, stubby and rounded, curving slightly outward and increasing in girth at the base are typically Chinese. Beautiful accessories, carefully selected and placed, are decidedly Japanese and help give an exotic finish to the settings. Bicycle Built For 2 Carries Baby as Well MOOSE JAW, Sask. (CP)--Tow- ing a child in a trailer behind a two-seater bicycle may not be the usual way to raise a boy, but it can be plenty of fun for both baby and parents. That's what Mr. and Mrs. George Whitford, formerly of Yorkshire, England, have been doing on their trip to British Columbia. They left Quebec May 12 and have aver- aged about 40 miles a day. Back of the knapsack-loaded tan- dem rides their son, Jimmie, his tiny blond head bobbing around to see his new country. VANCOUVER OR BUST With a Slogén of "Quebec to Van- couver or bust," the Whitfords have been pedalling along toward the coast. They will double back to the Okanagan Valley and stay for a while with an uncle of Mrs. Whitford who owns a fruit farm. But they haven't made up their minds where they will settle. "We have never had a house to live in,"' Mrs. Whitford says. "So when we find a spot we like and can build a house--there is where we will settle down." The Whitfords lived three of their married years in a converted bus in England. They decided to head for Canada, after weeks spent Free Book on Arthritis And Rheumatism How To Avoid Crippling Deformities An amazing newly enlarged 44 page book entitled "Rheumatism" will be sent free tc anyone who will write for it.

They like to camp out along the highway but each night they tried it there was rain. Once near Por- tage La Prairie when their camp was flooded out by rain, a road gang let them use a trailer to sleep in. Mrs. Whitford says the way Jimmie has taken to the trip has been a relief. He's always the first one up in the morning and im- patient to get in his trailer and start another day on the road.

Chef Finds Tourists Prefer Plain Dishes HALIFAX (CP) -- Tourists in Nova Scotia prefer fresh seafood and plain, wholesome beef dishes. That, says Eddie Gebistorf, hotel chef here, offers the most appeal to visitors. "No fancy relishes or sauces," he says. "They seem to like their seafood fresh and their beef un- cluttered by garnishes." Most popular seafood is Atlantic salmon, with lobster, tuna and swordfish next in that order. "There isn't much call for scal- lops or some other Nova Scotian delicacies, mainly because they are not known to the tourists and they shy away from ordering something they may not like. "Tourists also seem to have a great craving for beef," he noted. Steaks are by far the most popu- lar beef dish with grilled spare ribs and roasts following. Gebistorf also has noted a trend during the last year or so toward more plain food with low calory content. He credits this trend to- ward more sensible eating to the publicity given in newspapers and eating. WOMAN DOG CATCHER LEAMINGTON. (CP) -- Town council Satirday appointed Mrs. Irene Ives as town dog catcher. Mrs. Ives was the only person to apply for the job.
