A. Very destructive.

A parent so dramatizing a lie in the presence of a child, about this child's age, while entering a theatre or public conveyance, can do more harm than years of religious education can correct. And some pious parents will lie in this manner while going with the child to Sunday school or church! Q. Is the tag-along a problem? A. He certainly is. See that the younger child minds his own business and does not snoop around and tag along when his older brother or sister has his friends with him.

It is most serious when the older child is beginning to grow interested In the opposite sex. Help the younger child to cultivate playmates of his own age and not expect to be one of the gang of the older brother or sister. the committee with publicity. Mrs. Percy Graham and Miss Bowlby are acting as accompanists for rehearsals, which are proceeding according to schedule under the able direction or Mrs.

May Pashley Harris, who has studied play production at Columbia University, and in London, England, and will be remembered by the citizens of Windsor who were here in 1922 when one of the most spectacular pageants in Windsors history was produced under her direction. Mrs. Harris has produced plays in the beautiful Childrens Theatre on Fifth avenue. New York City, also. The casts for the plays include some of the most talented public and secondary school children in the city, and appearing with the actors will be a group of dancers from the Mahri School of Dancing.

Mrs. John F. Smith has composed the music which is being used in the plays, and Mrs. A. M.

By Garry C. Myers, Ph.D. pnEAR DR. MYERS: You have given such splendid help to me In some of your articles that I thought perhaps you could help me with my present problem.

have a boy four years old who la a normal, healthy boy in every way but one. There is a mean streak some-ahere in his system. He will be playing nicely with a little friend or his little brother, aged two. when all of a sudden he w-ill hit, pinch or hurt him in some way with the result that both parents and children will have nothing to do with him. I have talked to him in different ways.

When I ask him why he does it the answer is, I like I think he understands, for I have heard him ex- DR. G. C. MYEKS plain to the baby what I have said. Then first thing I know he will hurt some one again.

He went to nursery school all winter to little avail. The teacher and I both tried a number of things. I have tried spanking, overlooking. Ignoring him after explaining why. excessive affection, chair sitting, putting to bed with nothing but bare mattress, depriving him of something he wanted, each in turn, but with no success.

He also has thrown stones at two different women, neighbors who have interfered for his own good with what he was doing. I have asked these women to tell me at the time but they won't do that." DOCTOR'S SOLUTION Your punishments were not consistent and long enough to be effective. Begin again, this time at the bottom. Don't ask that child again why he pinches or hits. Don't explain further.

Bay nothing. During the next few weeks cr so budget your time so when he is with any other children his age, you will be near him. Best also to be with him when he is with his little brother. The moment this child hits, bites or In any way hurts another child, give him a severe smacking. Be sure to make it hurt, keeping your lips sealed the while.

Be just as sure that such pain will immediately follow each offense. No warning, no exceptions. Give the same punishment to train him not to throw stones at persons. There is no sense in asking the neighbors to tattle on him. They wont.

Anyway, it is too late then to punish. Show the child more affection, you and Dad. Take him on your lap now and then and fondle him. Read to him, make things with him. talk to him when he cares to talk, answering all his questions.

Encourage him to scribble and draw and make things. Be liberal with praise when he is good. I am enclosing a list of books for reading. You should be able to find some cf them in your public library. Send five cents to the U.

S. Office of Education, Washington, D. and ask for my pamphlet entitled Education of Young Children Through Celebrating Their Successes. SOLVING PARENT PROBLEMS Q.

Fashionable Tested Favorite Recipe Baked Stuffed Calves Hearts To make this dish you have to either have a stand-in with your butcher or be lucky. Order two calves hearts ahead of time.

Two fairly good-sized ones will serve six. Wash and remove clotted blood and arteries. Fill cavities with bread stuffing highly seasoned with sage, and sew and tie securely. Roll in seasoned flour, sear in hot fat until well browned, and plae in deep baking dish. Pour one cup water into frying pan in which hearts were seared; bring to boiling point, and pour over the hearts; cover and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for two hours or until tender.

Place hearts on hot platter and strain over them the gravy made from the stock in pan. Fried parsnips are a delicious accompaniment. Gravy is essential. While you are making these hearts it is a good idea to do four of them, for they are so good sliced cold, when served with Worcestershire sauce or hot chili sauce. Com pudding is a good accompaniment they are cold.

Roomy Bag Holds Umbrella Easily NEW YORK, March 8. On those occasions when the weatherman reports "probable showers yet a sunny sky tempts you to wear your best bib and tucker, there is no need for worry. Designers have given great thought to your convenience this year. One particularly nice item is a roomy felt bag aith a zipper underpocket when an 18-inch umbrella Is concealed. You can get this bag in such a range of colors that it is no problem to match it to your coat' or gloves.

Other convenient arrangements for those a ho believe in rainy-day preparedness are the little envelope cases of parachute silk or oiled silk that hold raincoats with detachable hoods and can be kept in your purse or a handy pocket. The five-inch cases of the same type, which hold rubbers that will fit over any type of shoe, are most convenient.

Lenten Dishes Make Fasting Really Fun Mushrooms More Than Satisfactory Meat Substitute T)ROMPTLY on the first day of Lent, Ash Wednesday, we had a guest who was fasting. This lady calls herself a carnivorous animal. Her idea of a good meal is a pound of steak (very thick), a sizable green salad with French dressing, crackers and cheese; or roast leg of lamb (aplenty), fresh green peas and shredded pineapple. When she turned up on Wecftiesday and we had a huge platter full of roasted stuffed calves hearts (one of her favorite dishes), she pulled out of her pocket a can of sardines saying Hi, folks, I brought my supper! And what is more she liked it! I strongly suspect myself of being "carnivorous too, for I was full of admiration for her 100 per cent, lack interest in our meat course.

What can I serve besides fish on fast This is the burden of much of my correspondence right now. It is easy to prepare a savory meal with a sizzling steak as the main dish, but it takes ingenuity when it comes to charming the family appetite with eggs or cheese or vegetables in the place of honor. Baked Mushrooms Recommended whole -heartedly Prepare 12 lbs. fresh mushrooms, by washing them in three waters, by rubbing them gently between the hands they do not need to be scrubbed or peeled. Place in a buttered baking dish for which you have a cover, season with salt and black pepper, dot with 3 tablespoons butter and add 2 cup cream.

Cover and bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes. A nice addition to the liquid that forms under them if they are for a fast day is a teaspoon of vegex (are you familiar with this all-vegetable extract with a meat flavor?) If not for a fast day use a teaspoon of beef extract, or a meat cube to flavor this basting broth. Baste mushrooms twice during baking, and remove lid to give them a slightly baked appearance just before serving. 1 Laura's Plate If you were a member of my family youd know what an invitation to Lauras meant a mighty fine meal. She wouldnt serve a vegetable plate unless it was an artistic triumph.

She has a very large chop platter which she bought at an auction sale for 15 cents it is Mexican pottery with a rust red border and jade green laurel leaves. Picture a snowy cauliflower in the centre, caressed with smooth Hol-landaise (or creamy cheese sauce), flanked with baked tomatoes stuffed with fluffy boiled rice, between which are bright green mounds of shredded green beans, sprinkled sparingly with buttered crumbs and paprika. Hybrid Omelette fr- This Is a cross between a fluffy omelette and a cheese souffle. I stumbled on it by accident for just when I had the souffle ready for the oven my family came home a half hour ahead of time, so I poured it into a piping hot frying pan, watched it fairly colsely to get the bottom browned for the turning, then turned it over and did the other side crusty brown. Having the one cup of cream sauce in it to give ft body, it did not collapse with this rather rough treatment, and the family thought it tops.

2 tablespoons each flour and butter, 1 cup milk, 2 teaspoon salt, 4 teaspoon pepper, 1 to ll2 cups cheese, 3 or 4 eggs, 4 teaspoon mustard is optional. Melt butter, stir in flour and salt, pepper and mustard if used, then stir in the milk until it is thick. Add this to the cheese and egg. yolks and beat well. Beat whites until almost stiff and fold into sauce and cheese mixture.

Either bake as above, omelette fashion, or pour into buttered baking dish and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 50 minutes. (On non-fasting days the baked souffle may be covered with strips of rindless side bacon for a change). Corn Fritters These I frankly admit are here just because I like them. One cup canned com (preferably bantam), cup sifted flour, 2 teaspoon baking powder, 2 teaspoon salt, few grains paprika, 1 egg. Sift the dry ingredients and mix with the com.

Beat the yolk and white of egg separately and add yolk to mixture, then fold In white. Drop by spoonfuls into hot fat at 370 degrees Fahrenheit. Drain on unglazed paper.

QUESTION: All of my pickles and relishes are nearly gone and I would like to make something from the vegetables one can now buy without it costing me too much. Have you anything to suggest that does not contain too much mustard? Thanking you, Mrs. M. K.

McByrae. Answer: Thank you for your letter. We had the same problem, and made the following relish last week, and liked it with our lamb roast last Sunday: Relish Two cups one cup sugar, two teaspoons salt, teaspoon pepper, l2 cup grated horseradish (we used prepared horseradish), two cups chopped cooked beets, two cups chopped raw cabbage. Combine vinegar, sugar and seasonings; bring to boiling point and boil for five minutes. Pour over vegetables, mix well and cook about five minutes longer.

Turn into sterilized containers and seal. Question: I would like a reply to the following question: Is there ever any danger of ptomaine poisoning in home canned goods done in new improved gem glass sealers? I would like to know which of meat, fruit or vegetables are most usbject to ptomaint poisoning if properly canned in glass sealers. Mr. R. Ericson.

Answer: There Is danger from spoilage in home canned goods canned in any container if they are not given sufficient length of time to sterilize in the sealed container. But there are foolproof methods of canning anything. In acid foods such as fruits and tomatoes, both forms of spoilage agents, molds and bacteria, are readily destroyed at the boiling temperature in a reasonable length of time. But in non-acid foods such as asparagus, corn, beans and peas, mushrooms, meats and poultry, the spore forms are heat-resistant, and it may take from six to 10 hours to destroy them at boiling temperature. If cooked under 10 to 15 pounds pressure (240 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit) these same spores are destroyed in about 30 minutes if the product is thin; or if heavy, such as com or beans or meat, they might require from 60 to 90 minutes at 240 degrees Fahrenheit.

All non-acid vegetables and meats should therefore be canned in the pressure cooker from the standpoint of time and safety, and also palatability and food value, since prolonged heat modifies flavor and destroys vitamins. Bacteria In foods differ from year to year and in different localities. The spore forms of the botulinas bacteria are strongly heat-resistant and may produce toxic products in canned foods which are highly poisonous. Since these toxins may be present in a home-canned, non-acid vegetable or meat without showing visible signs of spoilage, it is a wise precaution to boil these for 15 minutes before using. Commercially canned foods do not need this preliminary boiling before they are used.

If you intend doing extensive homecanning, you would be well advised to buy a pressure cooker and to use new rubbers every time you use the sealers you mention. Question: My young daughter likes rice better than potatoes. Would you give me a foolproof way of keeping it flaky? Thanks, J. Roy. Answer: Try this way: Fluffy Boiled Rice' One cup, rice, three teaspoons salt, eight cups boiling water.

Wash rice thoroughly. Add salt to boiling water in deep saucepan: add rice slowly so boiling does not stop. If water is very hard, add one teaspoon lemon juice or one tablespoon vinegar to keep rice white. Boil gently, without stirring, for 12 to 25 minutes, depending on variety, or until rice is entirely soft when pressed between fingers. Drain into sieve, wash with hot water, cover with cloth and set over hot water to separate grains.

Serve as a cereal, or in place of potatoes; or form mound or ring on serving plate and cover with creamed fish, meat or vegetables. Water in which rice is cooked may be substituted for part of liquor in making sauces and soups. Approximate yield: three cups cooked rice, or six portions. 1 Central W.M.S.

J. G. Inkster, on New Zealand, at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, has been changed from March 17, the original one, to Thursday evening, March 27, when it will be staged under the auspices of the Womens Missionary Society of the church. Dr.

Inkster will illustrate his address with Rainy Day Kit Easy to Whole Outfit, Including Umbrella, Goes Into Purse NEW YORK, March 8. When the rains come this spring, there will be no lack of smartness to a ladys costume. She can weather the storm looking the very height of fashion, for, if skies are uncertain, she can carry her rainy-day clothes with her. She can put the whole outfit umbrella, rubbers and all in her purse! Good tailoring is the dominating note in the raincoats now being shown. Most of them are so debonaire and dashing in their cut that you would surely catalogue them as decidedly mannish tfere it not for their slim, slenderizing lines.

In all of them you will find confirmation of the news that leveled shoulders are decidedly musts. And incidentally. It looks as though there were no such a thing as too many pockets. of the coats have from four to six. Splashy big hip pockets are aften topped, within a few Inches, by slightly smaller ones, and as though these were not enough, one or more breast pockets appear, too.

FEMININE TRENCH COATS The same good-looking, easy-going trench coat in natural gabardine that used to be practically a uniform for well-dressed college men is attractive in its feminine form as a raincoat. With its snug belt and roomy patch pockets, it has an air of casual simplicity that is bound to go over big with young things. There are other man-styled gabardine coats besides the slim and fitted models Some of them are swagger and full at the back, some sire straight up and down, but all have the new softness and the clever type of fitting that counts when it comes to 1941 style. Patriotic touches are found In one form and another. Epaulets of self material and sleeve emblems of various kinds seem to be preferred.
