Hints For Homebodies Wrltten for The Statesman By Jessle Allen Brown Saint John Saint John is most fortunately situated on bills, witb water just about all around it. I was neyer in a city where there are so many beautiful views. From the tops o! the bis, you can see water, sornetimes just a glimpse, and others, large stretches, and his, wbich are almost mountains, in the distance. The city itself is a bit dingy look- ing. The cli- mate is darnp deal o! sof t coal is burned, s0 most o! the bouses are painted a dark color. The built right up ~ to the sidewalk are not bright- ened by grass Jessie Allen and flowers. Brown The growth bas been outside the city and there are very !ew new bouses in the city itself. There are quite a few new bouses being built on either side o! the city and their white or light-colored paint makes thern look very at- tractive. The weather does not stay at !reezîng consistently and there are altennate tbaws and freezes. So we are finding the sarne icy streets that we had in Halifax, for the same reason. To get down sorne o! those his when they are a srnooth sheet of ice takes considerable nav i g a t i n g. There -is a fascination about old cities and Saint John looks ta have rnany interesting to see. *Understanding the Parent Dr. Milton Kirkpatrick writes under this tithe in a magazine for teachers. Under the heading -'Some Parents are Misfits' lie says, 'Just why society expects perfec- tion in panenthood, when it is -willing, to accept, buman limita- tions in other professions is not clear. Not ail persans have the qualities which go ta make good parents, and they are as much a mis-fit in the raie whicb Nature bas tbrust upon them as an artis- tic persan would lie if he were suddenly forced into the mnenial tasks o! day-labour. . . . Perbaps the gneatest obstacle is that fact that many parents are.oniy chul- dren tbemiselves. Adulthood is not soleiy a matter o! years, but ra- ther a combination o! chronologi- rcal age, intelligence, and mature attitudes. The number o! parents who do not exceed the tweive or thirteen year level on the Binet scale is considerable . ... the ma- jority o! our prabhems (as teach- ers) emanate from homes where one o! four attitudes prevails. The Unambitiaus Parent. The parent who because o! bis own unfortunate experiences at school or the culture whicbhèh repre- sents, sees no value in education -and bis children reflect bis atti- tude, . . . This type o! parent is on the decrease. The Overambi- tiaus Parents. Careful inquiry wiii often reveal that the parent is trying ta rehive bis own educa- *tianal hife, minus its deprivations -and frustrations, in the chiid. Few tasks are mare difficuit than persuading a parent that bis chlld does not have the capacity ta go ta coilege and enter some profes- sion. Parents Who Rejeet Their Chiidren. They love the cbiid but at times this love is absent and is dispiaced by a negative reactian. The cbild senses his parents' re- jection, resents it, and acts ac- cordingly. The Overprot e c t i v e Parent. The parent who "cad- dies" the child and smothers him with an infantile and selfish love. These chidren are slow in iearn- ing ta read and do not play wel with other children, and -in vani- aus ways show the results a! their Hand Lotion The neck and the V exposed by the dress, very often becomes rough and weatber-beaten. A daily appîciation o! hand lotion will heip to overcome this condi- tion. If you choose a lotion whicb is not sticky, it may be used at any tirne. The sheif nearest the kitchen sink is the best place to keep the hand lotion as it rnay be used frequently after the hands have been in water for any length o! time,. The habit o! usiflg a hand lotion4 and o! pushing back the cuticle with the towel when drying the hands, make the care o! the hands rnuch easier. A short time regulanly does a lot more good than the occasional spurt. Winter Drying Drying the clothes in Winter is quite a problem. To bang the clothes out, one by one, on a cold day is a cold job. Yet we ail like to get our clothes out, as it makes them srnell sa fresb, and the fresh air and !rost helps to wbîten thern. Sorne people use short lengths o! fine rope and pin the srnaller things to these, then pin the rope itself to the clothes-line. Others put as rnuch as possible on the clothes-horse and set that outside. Many others just content tbernselves witb drying in the cel- lar or attic. There is usually not as great a lengtb o! uine when one dries inside. If you put two lengths of! une a foot or two apart and bang the clothes cross- wise, pinning an end ta eacb uine, you wili be amazed at the amount o! clothes you can bang in a small space.

OLD AGE When is a man aid? Elbert Hubbard once remarked "The good die young-no matter haw long they live." Upon mature consideration we feel that the word, "good", in this aphorisrn, might be repiaced by "active," "progressive," "enthu- siastic," or any other word which would indicate that a man is keep- ing up a vital interest in life, changing as times change and gnowng ail the while. When shouid a physician-or any other man-retire? As soon as he hases interest in and enthusiasm for bis work or feels that he knows ail there is ta know about it. 1 can ay.Are you using it to the fullest advantage?

In additioni to the picture at the Paramount,1 tbere was Gien Gray and bis Casa Lorna Band to provide pienty o! srnooth and bot music, witb Pee- wee Hunt on the vocals. At Radio City, tbe main attraction was ofi course tbe Rockette group of fifty girl dancers who move as a single unit in the finest precision danc- ing in tbe worid. Tbey are won- derful to watch. Not until New Year's Eve did we reaiiy dig into the dives and learn bow the other bai! lives. We bad beard tales of tbe fabulous sums of rnoney spent in these places by wealtby scions and were particularly careful in seiecting oniy those wbich we knew bad wide front doors to be thrown out of. We also were careful ta take not too mucb money with us in case temptation beckoned too weil, but not too wisely. How- ever, sucb precautions were not necessary at ail. Tbey bave a peculiar arrangement at most of the places. If you waik in to the bar for a drink of anytbing from ginger aie to strong liquor, you must cbeck your coat at the door, tbereby providing the cbecker witb bis f ee and a tip. Tben you are aiiowed the freedorn of tbe place on week-nigbts, but on New Year's Eve you rnay just stand at the bar and drink. That is an in- expensive metbod of seeing the spots.
