KNOW THE REASON. courtesy and kindness set by mother
ti and father will help.
Every parent follows' with grea
interest each step of, development in
their children, 'Baby's first smile, his
first, step, the first time he lisps
"mamma" er "papa" ad'e memories i
every mother's and father's life whic
time cannot efface.
When the child first enters school,
this interest in his development as
turally follows. But, if the chil
enters this new period of his life
handicapped by defective vision, dis-
astrous consequences are sure to fol-
low, In his class work he is unable
to see the work at the board clearly,
and in his reading the words becoine
jumbled. By his extra effort to see
more plainly, he soon becomes tired;
both mentally and physically. !
Inattention will be the first impres-
sion the teacher will receive of him,
and his fellow pupils evill soon con-
sider him stupid, dull or lazy. As the
child continues to be outclassed in his
schoolroom and his playground activi-
ties, a reaction detrimental to his pro-
gress is evident,. He becomes discour-
aged, sullen and ofttimes rebellious.
On the teacher's list he is placed as a
stupid child. His parents, if they do
not place the blame of his lack of
progress with the teacher, try to
make amends for this condition by de-
manding that he do more home study.
This second course may cause even
more trouble by creating a greater
strain on the child. But in. it,alsolies
the means for the solution of the
problem. If this horne-work is care-
fully supervised by one or the other
of the parents, they are given the
opportunity to study the child when
he is working, and to discover, if pos-
sible, the cause of the trouble.
Because no member of the family
has ever worn glasses is no reason to
covesn up the -needs of the children. We
would then urge every parent to con- ,
sider their children's eyes. If there
Is any reason to suspect that they are
having trouble with them, it is a great
injustice to fail to have them attended
to immediately. Neglect in this, as
well as in other cases, is sure to bring
disappointment and regret.
A RING PARTY.
Rings can be made the appropriate
n motif of a party given in honor of a
h friend's engagement. Writ the
invitations on pretty paper cut out to
represent Zings. Give the guests as
souvenirs little tin rings bearing the
names or Initials of the engaged
couple. Gifts to the guest of honor
should be articles such as cookie cut -
tees, moulds, napkin rings or em-
broidery hoops. Decorate the house
with wreaths and serve refreshments,
if possible, in the form of rings. Any
number of things will suggest them-
selves to the hostess: salads made of
cucumber or tomato rings; beet
pickles and French fried potatoes cut
in rings; cups made of mashed pota-
toes or cooked carrots and filled with
creamed pea e seasoned and all brown-
ed in the oven; macaroni ringlets or
noodles served in various dishes;
sandwiches cut ring-shape or rings of
sliced meats; doughnuts; and ice
cream in ring moulds.
HOME MANNERS.
We suppose there never was a
mother who was not at some time or
other embarrassed by, the actions of
°nerd, her children away from home.
Ye't. some mothers are continually em-
barrassed in this menner and will say
to the children after taking them
home from a visit to relatives or
friends, "What made you act that
way? Have you no company man-
ners?"
To tell the truth, few children have
any "company manners," if such an
expression is allowable. They stet
away from home very much as they
are in the habit of acting at, home.
ey have not reached that stage of
development where they can smile and
bow and say they are having a lovely
time when they are bored to death and,
want to go home. Children are usual-
ly honest and outspoken, and it is
hard to make them anything else.
Also, if they are in the habit of reach-
ing across the table for things at
home they .are going to do it away
from home and howl when their moth-
ers grab them and pull them back into
their chairs .none too gently. If they
say "please" and "thank you" at home
they will say it away from home, un-
less overcome with stage fright; or
they will run in front of people with-
out even saying "excuse me," because.
they have not had this little act of'
courtesy trained into them.
Children always' like to know. the
why of things and they learn. little
daily habits of courtesy better if they
are told way they are asked to do
them. Then little stories are made
up or games which help drill the little
habits into their consciousness. But
above everything else, the example of
