Amusement for Small Guest
Supplv of Trifles to Occupy Attention Will Tend to
Make Visit Enjoyable for Both Caller and
Hostess, and Please the Child.
_
By LOUISE R. MARSHALL, National
Kindergarten Association, New
York City.
When friends have called on you
and brought along their cutldren,
have you ofteu felt shocked at their
lack of manners been use they would
not sit down as stiff as automatons
and keep quiet while you and your
guest chatted of things that held not
the least interest for them?
However, If a child has not bPen
"well brought up" he Is very apt to
prowl from one thing to another un
til you are ready to scream from
thinking every minute he will tip
over that vase of flowers, surely
break into the bookcase with the
glass front, or explore library table
drawers, the contents of which are
trail and precious.
We can eliminate nervous appre
hension on our side, overcome
“snoopiness" on the part of the lit
tle visitor, and secure peace and
quiet for his mother and ourselves
In which to enjoy each other’s com
pany if we liuve a hospitable dispo
sition nnd do a little planning be
forehand. We take particular de
light in showing some treasured
piece of art, a new lunch cloth, or
a recent book to make the mother
feel we are happy to have her come
Into our home and want her to share
in our latest possessions, so why
should we not exert ourselves to dis
play a like hospitality to her youth
ful companion?
With thut idea in nnnd 1 secured
n large cardboard carton in which I
store, in boxes, triiles that are sure
to amuse young minds. I give out
one or more boxes nt a time accord
ing to the need. In the collection I
have drawing books and n box of
crayons, some large cardboard dolls
with cutout coats, dresses and hats,
a bag of marbles, a set of tiny chairs
that were left from a parlor suite my
own children used, a pnlr of kinder
garten scissors, and a smaller set of
paper dolls nnd clothes to be cut
out if the player chooses, several
rubber ducks and fish for very tiny
callers, a toy truck, nnd a small wag
on, a tin ten set nnd an aluminum
baking set, a fairylike stove, a fair
sized doll that hns seen much use,
and a box of clothes for her, a top,
some puzzles, and dozens of other
trinkets. I am always running across
something new to slip Into one of the
boxes of my “treasure chest."
Nowadays so many pretty cards
and novelties come home In the way
of advertisements that one need not
go to the effort nnd expense of buy
ing elaborate games nnd nrtlcles, be
cause ull these will be new to the
little explorer nnd different from his
supplies at home. I endeavor to put
Into this box only toys and trinkets
that do not crente confusion, for If
drums, horns, plnnos, trains, rifles
and the like were included the pur
pose would be frustrated—there
would still be as much clatter and
tumult as If the youngster were
scampering from room to room help
ing himself to whatever took his
fancy.
In the collection are boxes of toys
that appeal to the boys and others
that charm the litle girls, or. If there
happens to he more than one child
at a time, two or more boxes fur
nish Just the things needed for a
session of school, to play housekeep
ing, or some otfier interesting game
together.
If you show thoughtfulness for the
little guests, they will enjoy coming
to your house nnd not have to he
dragged protestlngly along just be
cause mother wants to go. My chest
has served not only as a safety
valve for pent-up vim during calls
hut has also proved n drawing card
as well. Many of the boys and girls
come to “visit” with me by them
selves, for they renllze they will re
ceive n hearty welcome nnd And n
sympathetic understanding of what
little folks need nnd like. *

CLIMATE NOT A
BIG FACTOR IN
COLD ‘CATCHING’
It's just as easy to catch cold In
California as In Boston; just as easy
to start sniffling in New Orleans us in
Chicago, believes the Public Health
Service.
Climate apparently makes no dif
ference in the ease with which people
take cold or the number of colds they
have each year, it Is concluded by
the Service after a statistical study
of colds and related diseases in va
rious sections of the country.
Only one apparent connection be
tween weather nnd colds was dis
covered. That was regarding temper
ature. It was found that the colder
the weuther, the more colds people
seem to huve. This was found to be
especially true In the fall. Whenever
theft was an Increase in colds and
related illnesses, weather bureau rec
ords showed there was a drop in tem
perature during the same period.
Other features of climate nnd
weather seemingly have no effect on
the frequency of colds. The humidity,
or amount of moisture In the air,
the amount of sunshine nnd cloudy
weather, rain or snowfall, nnd cnltn
or windy weather do not nffect the
population's coughs nnd snuffles.
The Public Health Service's study
of colds was made in six cities de
clared to represent "the extremes of
latitude, longitude and climatic con
ditions within the continental United
Stnfes." These cities are Boston, Co
lumbus, Ohio, Washington, Chicago,
New Orlenns and San Francisco.
Students In universities in each of
the cities provided the datn on colds
by reporting every two weeks on the
number of colds nnd related ailments
they had In the meantime. Besides
colds, this included bronchitis, ton
silitls, sore throat, influenza nnd pneu
monln, ns well ns combinations of
these diseases.

Housewife's Idea Box
To Brighten a Room
You may not be able to refurnish
a room, but you can easily brighten
It and give It the effect of change.
Just re-cover your chairs with
brightly colored cretonne or even
gingham. Or it may be easier sim
ply to make separate cushions for
the chairs. Try this and see what
a big difference it makes.
