From my window discarding before it gets to that point." My daughter has lived through my cleanup campaigns before. I converge with two or three large green garbage bags and start pitching. I throw out everything that is remotely useless and the result is an almost sterile, vacant bedroom. Usually, within a day or so after casting my intentions on the wind, I've noticed a marked improvement in the bedroom of my daughter. In order to avoid the gutting danger, she puts forth an all out effort to be tidy, at least until the heat is off. She's happy..,.and so am I. And so far, she doesn't know what lies ahead when she has a teenaged daughter of her own. ' IS UV A 76Y.

But the day has finally arrived when I have a 15-year ,old daughter of my own, and everytime I look into her topsy- turvey bedroom I think I can see my mother smiling from wherever she is. One good thing has come of it, though. I remember back to when I was a teenager with a messy bedroom and I recall that the disease isn't a per- manent affliction.,specially if you marry an orderly man. When my husband and I were first married, he was ab- solutely appalled by my habit of tossing my clothes wherever they landed when I was disrobing. But dear man that he is, he never said anything to me about it. He simply and quietly set about to hang up my dresses and skirts, dispose of the dirty laundry, fold sweaters neatly for the drawers, line the shoes like soldiers on the closet floor. Being naturally well organized and orderly, my husband would just not go to bed at night until the room was tidy and the bed made. I felt so terribly guilty about it all that I soon began to try to beat him to the task and it wasn't too long before I learned to ap- preciate the joys of sleeping in a tidy bedroom. Now, it is only occasionally that I slip and leave things looking messy...,and when I do, the pat- tern is always the same. My husband straightens up the clutter and I feel utterly crushed because of it. So I rarely have a scene with my daughter about her bedroom. I guess I understand her weakness and I hope that someday she will change her ways before she has to be trained by her husband as I was. I have discovered an ap- proach which works whenever the turmoil in her bedroom becomes too much to bear. I very carefully drop the hint that one day soon I will have a complete cleanup in her bedroom. "I'm going to have to houseclean your bedroom MAO I begin rather non, chalantly, "There must be a great many things in your closet and your drawers that you have outgrown, When you get too much in your room to be stored away easily, it sometimes gets messy.

Today is July 12 or the bay of the Orange Walk. This day always reminds me of my mother, bless her. She loved to attend the twelfth of July celebrations wherever they were held. To her, July 12 was as big as Christmas....and twice as much fun. But like my mother, the July 12 holiday isn't a great deal more than a memory now. Last year I saw the July 12 parade in the town where I live, and it was a far cry from the ones I used to watch as a child. But July 12 always makes me think of my mother, and when I think of my mother, I think of a good many of the things she told me....and wished for me. As a youngster at home, I wasn't very neat about my bedroom. I suppose there are more girls who don't keep their bedrooms tidy than do, but my bedroom at home was always a shambles. My mother was neat as a pin, and it bothered her immensely, I suspect, to have such a slovenly daughter. And in her most angry of moods, may mother used to shout at me, "I hope when you 'have a, daughter,= she will throw everything in her room far, wide and handsome so you will know what it is like to live with."
