You want the adventure of going away from home, and yet you hate it. I know because of little remarks you drop about "next year." Sometimes you are so gay about it, and then the next time there is the serious look in your eyes and a hint of sadness. Well, darling, I'm not ad. Oh, , Myrtle Meyer Eldred discusses Parents' Problems "Your Baby And Mine" If all children were exactly alike, all children of the same age would eat the same food at the same hours and be happy to do so. Obviously, rules and regulations have to be flexible because children are not alike. Mrs. M. M. L. cannot get her 20-month-old boy to eat his breakfast, though he eats his other two meals well. She writes, "He weighed six pounds at birth and now weighs 23V pounds and is 31 y2 inches tall. How can I get him to eat the attractive breakfasts I prepare for him?" You did not mention the hour at which you expect him to eat and it may be, at this age, that he would eat later in the morning though he refuses when he first arises. Try giving him his orange juice soon after he gets up and then wait until later to present his breakfast. Leave him alone and let him eat slowly, as he may be one of those who tire easily if fed too fast. The egg would be better for a lunch food and give cereal, toast and milk for breakfast. Mrs. B. A. G. Have you had the dentist check the teeth to see if there is any condition in the mouth responsible for the excessive saliva? This might be a natural yes, I'll miss you! This last week when you were away only three days on a visit the house seemed empty and a little desolate. But I wasn't unhappy. You were away for a dance and I knew you were having fun. That's the way I'm going to feel about it next year, too. I'm going to set my ! teeth against loneliness for you and tell myself that you arc grow ing and maturing and learning to stand completely on your own in that small world of learning we call a college. I'll know you are settling your own problems and meeting situations which demand j the use of your nice little mind, and that you'll make mistakes and learn, through making them, what to do and what not to do. Like every mother I dread having you hear some of the more stupid bits of reasoning. Every college (as well as the world) has its quota of glib-talking "free thinkers" who, having a little learning give ample proof of how dangerous so little learning can be. They think of themselves as iconoclasts who revel in breaking the images of conventions. They KOff at religion and morals and call "old - fashioned" and "out-moted" the very things which make the world sane. You haven't heard any of that kind of talk, and I ask only that you weigh it intelligently when vou do near it. l asK oniy vnai condition with your daughter but "vou watch these people closely and "If you suffer distress from-N FEMALE WEAKNESS Which Makes You Tired, Nervous !

The holes in the nipple may be too small and could be enlarged by heating a needle red-hot in a candle or gas flame and puncturing it larger. A nipple with a hole which is too small demands so much effort to get food that the child is worn out before the bottle is empty. The same amount of evaporated milk with water to make 6'a to 7 ounces per feeding, might be easier for the child to take and then you could give additional water between meals. She gets a lot of sugar, in fact more than her weight would seem to warrant. You might find that to cut down one tablespoon would improve the child's appetite and make her eager to take the food you are serving her. Later you can increase both the milk and sugar. Be sure your measurements of sugar are strictly level.

I a.sk that you look around at the older people and study the consequences to those who have embraced such philosophy. It isn't anything new, child. I heard it in those ancient-history days when I was a wide-eyed youngster in college, feeling more brainy than I've ever felt since. Your father and I have done what we could for you thus far. We've given, at least, a great love. Whether the example of our lives and our ideas and ideals have made a deep-rooted impression upon you is something for time to tell. Still, I'm not worried. I cannot keep you always under my wing, and I wouldn't be foolish enough to try. A mature woman with a child's outlook is pathetic, indeed. No, I wouldn't want that. Next play as well as I used to. In my youth I joined a dancing class but could not learn to dance. I thought I could write, but that to went through a process of steady degeneration, rather than a positive evolution. In fact, I do just what Marie Ouopensaki, in the movie, "Kings Row," said that many people do; she said and wisely, that "some people develop: others just grow older. I just grow older. Do you wonder then that some of us grow recentful, even a little bitter? Do you wonder that we grow suspicious of a God who is so careless in handling out His talents? Do you wondex that we even question, at times the actuality of a God, and find ourselves slipping slowly, yet surely, into atheism? I am 46 years old. O. K. Dear O. K.: Of all the silly attitudes! The trouble with you is that you are self-conscious and exacting, and furthermore, you're all set for defeat before you ever start a thing, look bark. Let's take that violin, for instance. Now be perfectly honest. Didn't you do more dreaming than real, honest hard work on your fiddle? Aren't you the type who wants to spring into perfection without giving every ounce of intelligence, time, energy and work to the dull and sometimes uninteresting preparatory measures? I played, at one time, the world's worst violin. I wanted to play. I remember that I dreamed of standing before audiences and sweeping them along on the majesty of my music. It was a wonderful dream, and maybe I could have done it if I hadn't loathed the "squeak-squawk" of practicing drab, immature exercises. So what happened ? So I didn't learn to play a violin. You may have chosen the wrong vehicles for your efforts. That I can't tell, but don't tell me that you have no talents. You may have been one of those people who broke his heart trying to do things God never fneant for him to do. and in so doing neglected your natural trends. I know many who meet futility in this way. You're shy. If you have rhythm, you can dance even now. You probably stumbled around the floor a few times and said, "Oh, gee, I look like a dolt" . . . and Both private and general matters require extra attentivencss. Take precautions against repeating old mistakes. More effort needed today. May 21 to June 21 (Gemini i Your rays similar to Taurus.

"WE TOGETHER LKTTKRS" Dear Mrs. Fulmer: Last evening you wrote that everyone ought to excel in some one thing. You spoke of the happiness gained, the almost magical disappearance of inferiority complexes, when a person feels that he is doing excellent work. But how about those persons, who like myself have no talent for doing excellent work of any kind? I have never been able to excel in anything, either big or small. Practice makes perfect they say. Not with me, the more I practice, the worse I get. Years ago, I tried to play the violin and made progress for a while, then steadily grew worse, until today I cannot back and conquer something you think you've failed in. Are you game? Let's make it dancing. If you'll call me, or come by, I'll put you in the hands of a teacher who will teach you to dance. Once you break that idea, you can still .succeed in other things. Let's hear from you again . , . but think it over. Today's Pattern s. Can YOU use EXTRA HELP at HOUSE CLEANING Time?
