We have three sons--17, 13 and 3. Our income is modest, but we have a fine library. We have always read to the boys and have enjoyed some books as a whole family. You're so right--the actual enjoyment of the story as it is being read is only one bonus, the real one is the sharing and exchange of ideas. "Our two older boys have seen only Walt Disney and other good family movies; no comic books have ever crossed our threshhold, as even the 'harmless' ones are less than excellent. Then TV is carefully selected with less parental in- fluence as they mature. We're a praying family, so the criti- cism ior these restrictions which has come from relatives has been easier to take.

They think Craig is a prince of a fel- dow and would be pleased if we married--someday--but I can't go steady with anybody and that's final. I love Craig and he ioves me. from his first grade. Yet we refused to let him read horror comics just to improve his reading. "It has been disappointing to see this eldest son do so poorly in school--but he is a good boy and very capable and reliable in the summer job and his tasks at home. GREAT PORTENTIAL | "Our second son won a schol- arship to Hawken School, a fine boys' school He's a_ brilliant boy with great potential, we are told. "Our wee one is really why I'm writing you. He learned the alphabet quickly at 18 months and each of the states at two years. He has learned the sounds of letters and asks, "What does this word say?' We have volunteered little but have simply answered his questions. Is this a good method to con- tinue? "We have read to him dozens and dozens of books. He knows most of the flowers in our yard and is fascinated with bugs, butterflies and birds. He care- fully looks through each maga- zine as it arrives." My reply in part: Surely you are dedicated parents. It's won- derful the way you have read to your boys and exposed them to good books. You can well be proud of those children of so many fine qualities. Along with you I feel badly about the eldest boy's lag at school and in reading. I hope you parents don't exult over the school successes of the second ~ Life With Three Boys ~- Revealed In A Letter boy .and the precociousness of the youngest. Fine that you do play and achievements in the eldest boy. 3 ENCOURAGE READING help him again in reading, the key to his school progress. En- courage him to read from books he can read with success and enjoyment. He would greatly profit from reading to his youngest brother when he nat- urally, would read from easy materials. I hope you keep on reading to your youngest boy and go on to know. But you may} be tempted to press him too much in formal school learning. He needs also to make things with his hands for fun and to play freely with other children of his age. PARENTS' QUESTIONS Q.

Tell Michael this evening that, if he does not make himself ready tomorrow morning on time, he will remain home all day and sit during the school hours for forty minutes at a stretch un- amused, doing nothing, . with five minutes recess between periods.

This famous hospital, founded at the tum of the century, is primarily devoted to and con- cerned with orthopedic prob- lems. Steel innerspring mattresses, containing from 150 to 600 re- silient steel springs, provide the firm support and physical re- -- so vital to sound sleep- ing. FOUR VITAL POINTS Such a mattress supports the four vital points of the growing body: The neck, trunk, pelvis and legs. Uneven mattresses don't do this and prevent some muscles in the body from relaxing com- pletely. Mattresses that sag not only fail to support the body with this firmer and accommodating resiliency but, by clinging to the body's contour, they build up a cushion of heat, the di- rector of nursing notes. Since innerspring mattresses don't. hug the body, and addi- tionally, the air circulates freely between the steel coils inside, circular hoop. Then cut strips of polythene about six inches long and two inches wide. Each strip is tied tightly to the wire hoop, sliding the knots closely together in order to make the wreath as bushy as: possible. When the hoop is completely covered, spray the finished wreath lightly with silver, gold or green spray. It will dry in minutes. Then make a bow from weather-proof, plastic ribbon and attach it to the top of the wreath where it will hide the hanger hook. | The. beauty of this wreath is that it can be made in an even- jing, yet can be used for more than one year. Easy to store; its original, fresh look can be re- tained simply by re-spraying it before it is hung again.
