CHILD GUIDANCE - Mother. Asks Advice Regarding The Child Who Uses Slang By G. CLEVELAND MYERS Many parents are unduly an-- noyed by the slang their children use; and the more cultivated these parents consider themselves, the more they are. annoyed by it. wo! or phrases are a kind aid to the youth who feels unsure of himself. This is jmost apparent when the.youth is dyin to speak while feeling uncertain what he is going to say and fearful of how other persons present will respond. By and by, as he gains more skill at organizing his ideas and at expressing them in conven- tional words and phrases, he grad- ually feels no need for slang. FROM A READER . Wrote one readex: ' "Dear Dr. Mayers; J want 39 e3- my appreciation for the help veg have given me in bringing up my children. My older one, ten, I've written you about before. I followed your advice and with great success. Today he enjoys much success in competitive sports with boys his own age, is on the honor roll every month, and is president of his class. 'He has learned to enjoy many foods which he felt he didn't like before I started using your 'small gs' method. A GRAMMAR PROBLEM "But now he uses atrocious grammar. His dad and I have tried to set a good example in speech and our daughter, six, uses unusually good English. "We can't understand why our such expressions as son uses 'bricks,' 'stuff,' 'guys,' 'hens' (fornewspaper.) girl and ladies), 'hey' a proper name when ad essing a friend. Also, he talks very loudly. "He admits he doesn't see the importance of good speech, say- ing, 'The other boys don't use it.' However, I've noticed many of his friends do speak well. I am some- times embarrassed by his speech when we have Slests. 2 ah art: 1 rep part: I'm sure you are unduly worried over your son's uacodventi onal utterance. Since he now has such strong approval of his classmates chosen their president, he must suppose they approve his speech. Your constant nag at him about the matter and your strong silent approval of his sister's speech make him worse. Of course, this lad's success at books .and pularity with his classmates might have gone to his head a bit. Too, he might be over- stimulated by his successes. DON'T INTERRUPT HIM No sense in interrupting him to correct his speech. Perhaps, in a very few serene, companionable moments, you might talk over this problem with and help him understand why he uses such expressions as he does and lead him to see how he might prove more grown up th more conventional speech, Your success in other directions should you here. y bulletin "Common Gram- matical Errors' may be had by sending a self-addressed, stamped envelope to me in care of this hel ( receding | living persuasively | with 'land trave!

Obviously middle age is not the same time of life for everybody. It is not inconceivable that in a more enlightened time, seventy will be considered young middle age. The roll-back of the years is happening right' now. Already we have been given approximately 20 extra years. There is definite proof that the onset of the degenerative disorders commonly believed char- acteristic of aging, are not inevi-- table. KEEP PACE WITH SCIENCE . So let's keep pace with science in our thinking, and cease to look upon the vague aches and ailments of middle age as evidence of the wearing out of the body machin- ery but instead regard them as disorders which can be remedied with improved nutrition and medi- cal science. Our bodies are capable | of reaching 100 without wearing | out in any vital part. There is abundant living proof of this today. The body is so much more won- derful than a man-made machine. | Given the right materials, the body | repairs itself. No machine can do that. The foods which furnish the essential materials needed for re- pair and surviving are the Basic 7: Milk, 1 pint daily for -adults; or |one glass and an. ounce of cheese; one citrus fruit or juice; plus one or two other fruits; a dark green vegetable, plus two or more others; one or two eggs; a liberal serving of lean meat, fish or fowl, and | whole grain or enriched bread or cereal. The protective foods, in those stipulated amounts furnish sufficient calcium, iron and pro- tein, as well as vitamins and, with- out 'adequate amounts of each of these essentials, tle body withers. | Too many adults have a calcium deficiency because of failure to use enough milk or cheese in the daily menus. REDUCE CALORIES Fewer calories are needed as time goes by. Therefore the non- essential sweets, starches and fats must be lessened. The scales are the highest authority on that score. Overweight is the roblem in the middle period e--and it is no help to staying young. Extra pounds put a burden on the vital organs and that is the real reason excess f-t A But back to think young. . . many authorities believe that our best mental age is after fifty. So take no stock in that old saw that you cannot teach an old dog new tricks. We do mot grow old. . . we get old when we stop growing mentally.

MARY HAWORTH'S MAIL In Love with Co-Worker Irked By His Nonchalant Attitude Dear Mary Haworth: I am a woman 33, in love with a co- worker, 32. We have been going together . two nights a week for the last six months. In this time neither of us has dated anyone else, cl that we have no wish to. Yet when I ask Tom about his deeper feeling for me, he is noncommittal. He says he can't honestly say away from me. him why he thinks he doesn't love me, he says he just can't explain #. Is there way I can induce him to fall love with me? ease him; have stopped wearing low-cut gowns because he disapproves them; and I am just as sweet as I can be. I don't think I am overdoing these things; and we are just as congenial as and-butter at all times. ¥ I were to try or dating others, I am would be very hurt, altho wouldn't mention it. He is the type who would think I was trying to forget him, instead of trying to make him jealous. So I don't think that is the right tactic. What he needs is an earthquake inside; and I would like to bring this about, with your dance. Have you any help to r? --C.Y. DEVOTION 18 KEY Dear C.Y.: Evidently Tom isn't the sort who can be swept off his feet by any woman, ess per- haps femme fatale type, such as he isn't likely to interest. As I get thc picture, his capacity to love is undeveloped. He seems a greatly inhibited fel- low, passive, indecisive, cautiously defensive; possibly due to an emo- tionally insecure early life that con- ditioned him to reject even his him, sure he . |dent upon it, to ugh he |} own feelings, to beware and dis- trust them, in order to cut down the risks of getting hurt. In such case, the most effective way to get inside his guard and kindle a fire in his heart, is to ive him a at deal of reasur- g devotion in a very unobtrusive way, without seeming to ask any- thing in return, continu rac- tise until he is comfortably habi- tuated to the largesse. Or depen- recise. n if you were to include new inter- ests in your life, that curtailed your minis! to him, that rather swept him to sidelines, he might suddenly realize how much A a. ne, fall a scovery " in love" and marriage. HE'S IMMA Until now you've taken the posite tack, it seems, trying capture Tom's attention, instead of bestowig affection without calcu- lation. And ft may be that he is blocked in relation to you, by canny sense that your behavior is tacitly demading rather than lov. ing. Immature persons (such as Tom) usually are to outright emotional demands vol- eyed at them by intimates. One must be emotionally mature in some respects, to find pleasure in the giver-role. Your chances are slight of win- ing Tom, now that you've thrown yourself at his head, and done '| your utmost to pin him down. But maybe you can redeem the mis- take by relaxing vour efforts, and him more fi female to launch a chase, in which the male becomes the pursuer.

In those days as today, the lano- lin base of the brilliantine was the secret of its success. But today, a famous cosmetic house has de- veloped a brilliantine that's in keep- ing with lighter, pleasanter cosme- all [tics -- a creme brilliantine that is rich in lanolin, but so lightly and delicately balanced that it disap- pears immediately on the hair, eaving only the sheen and the beautifully groomed look women e. Use this creme brilliantine when- ever your hair is going to be ex- posed to drying conditions or the weather. Use it to groom your hair. Use it to massage and lubricate your scalp -- especially through the winte= months of hot dry houses. You'll love the ease with which it goes on -- and the lovely frag- rance and lustre it gives your hair. Families Waste Money on Clothes Many families waste more mon- ey on clothing than on any other item they purchase. "Impulse buy-- ing and shopping without a plan cause most of the trguble," accord- ing to Leone Ann Heuer, Director of Consumer Education. Dollars must be spent according to plan or they disappear for suits, coats, dresses, or shoes which may fail to match anything else in color or prove to be a misfit in the wardrobe.

Long History For Hotel Dieu MONTREAL (CP) -- From the day Jeanne Mance founded Hotel Dieu hospital in 1642, a series of devoted administrators have dis- claimed any ownership of the in- stitution. Its history dates back to the time Maisonneuve was sent from France to-Canada to establish the settlement of Ville Marie. With him was sent Jeanne Mance to estab- lish Hotel Dieu. And at the time the order of the Religious Hos- italers St. Joseph was set up train s for the new hos- pital. The order now has 38 other hos- itals in Canada and the United tates which it administers as its own but Hotel Dieu is always treated as "the property of the r" and separate books are kept or it. The first building was put up in downtown Montreal on what now is St. Paul street, on land carefully divided between the or- der and Hotel Dieu. To this day when some of the original land is rented, the property and revenue are divided between the order and the hospital. Jeanne Mance was authorized to administer the hospital until her death, when a committee of civil administrators was to be chosen. {powdered alum and boil | Montrealer wanted to take on the job of running the hospital, partly cause it was in debt. The Sulpician Fathers agreed to keep the books on a temporary ba- sis but a few years later the su- perior in France ordered that arrangement be terminated Bishop Laval at Quebec told the sisters to carry on from year to year. This arrangement was con firmed by an act of the British Parliament in 1849 which author- ized the sisters to "acquire and possess property as ad trators "for the poor of Hotel Dieu." The mother house of the order and the hospital were moved in 1861 to 'its present site om Pine avenue near the foot of Mount Royal. The order had been given a tract of land about 60 acres long and four acres wide. Some adja- cent farm land was bought to ex- tend the area. And to separate the mother house from the property of "the poor of Hotel Dieu" a wall was built through the middle. The wall still stands.
