To Use Own Allowance Give Regularly That Plans May Be Made BY MYRTLE M1SYER ELDRED It isn't really strange that the disposition of money in the home should be auch a trial to the parents.

For despite their best In tentions, both parents may have 1 1 1 different viewpoints about money. The parent who always had what money she needed or wanted and heard no discussion of it in the home, cannot possibly view it with the Mra. Eld rod same respectful as loes struggle the parent who had to for every penny he ever enjoyed. ow is It possible for these Bar ents to make a satisfactory adjustment toward money, as it 1 represented In their mutusl lives. wnen money means such different things to each of them? It does help some when each can recognize that tha idea.

the other are the result of his or her economic and emotional experiences. Then each should able to make soma concMeinm Mothers Do Better. Mothers, seemingly, are bttr this than fathers. Because, so often, their positions make them econom ically aubaervlent and therefor. submissive.

Fathers, so hv. found tighten or loosen the puree strings according to their own Ideas and brook no interfe rtnra frnm mothers. It is taken for granted these days that a child should have a.i allowance, however small, once he is of an age to spend money. But even the approach to th aiinw. ance is complicated bv different parental viewpoints.

The moth er may contend that the illawinm fchould be given to the rhlM nn the same basis a he enjoys food and shelter, clothing, medical care and education, am a memhr the family he is entitled to a nor- tion of the money belonging to the Fathers may contend that should work for what he get and1 inus Decome appreciative of monev and its significance. There Is some thing to be said for both view points but MORS to be aid for mothers' contention. Give Money Regularly. cnuoren are to have anlv wnai tney earn, there must bo an artificial money value placed on nome tasks. If, instead, we look upon money as merely a symbol of why should we demand more ac tual work lor money than for clothes or food, etc? To be consistent we should not We should give a child some money, commen-eurate with hia age and spending capacity, exactly as we buy the rood ne needs.

Money should Le given regularly becauee the child then can make Plana for it and have an education iia use. wnieh he can't if it is unpredictable. Viewed objectively and not emo tionally, an allowano given with no reference to work done, offers me iewest pitfalls. WJien should your child be given an allowance and how much money should be provided These are questions answered in Mrs. Eldred's leaflet, Allowances or Children.
