CHILD GUIDANCE When Child Has Fear of Dark He Should Not be Ridiculed By G. CLEVELAND MYERS ~_ One evening, when our young- est child was about four, he ex- Pressed his first fear of the dark. } ways before he had seemed comfortable on being left at bed- time in his room with the light turned off. He would fall asleep promptly. But on that particular evening at bedtime he told his mother he would like her to leave his door open with a light on out- side. "You see," he said, "some- thing has been coming into my room and climbing up on my bed at night and Iwantto see what it is. Arthur a playmate told me a monkey had been coming into his room at night." 4 SOON OUTGREW-NEED Nonchalantly, his mother said, course you should have the t,"" and she opened his door and put it on. He never said any- thing more about the matter, and after several more evenings told his mother he didn't think he need- ed the light any more. One daugh- ter must have been about twelve when she also reaquestéd one ev- ening to have her door open and a light in the hall. She scon out- grew this need. ; . Such fears in children, laughed at or treated as 'foolish' or as bids for attention, can cause them a lot of needless suffering. After the age of three or four, fear of | the dark can be very real. i . It's not the dark, but the things ! the child imagines he sees. or| hears in the dark that trouble him. Not many children under two or three have such imagina- . tion. Their insistence on having com] or a light may arise from vague loneliness; more often, no doubt, from a wish for attention. Of course, the child who has com- pli frequent or continuous at- ntion over a long period from early years may give fear as an excuse at four, five or later, A! mother with such a situation on her hands writes: "Dear Dr, Myers: My son, five, has very suddenly developed a fear of- the dark. He also refuseg to go upstairs unless someone goes with him. He must have a light on in the hall when he goes to bed. He imagines bad men com- ing into his bedroom at night and many other things. SIGNS OF JEALOUSY "I have another boy two years old. At times there are signs of jealousy, which I expected, but ave tried my best to spend more time with the older one alone, yreading to him, playing records, and the like. His father calls him a baby an a sissy." My reply in part: I like your reported ways and trust that Pad will be more sympathetic with the lad's fears and will have more fun with him. Celebrate Dad's suc- cess and don't argue with him specially in the child's presence. Watch Jourself that you don't pamper the lad. Try to help him grow more self-reliant and spend more time with other children of his age. Quick first aid for a cyt and bleeding finger is to wet a piece of toilet tissue, apply it to the cut and let it dry on. _|for- at least a year--and I know I SEW AND SAVE WEEK Sew and Save Week Introduces Highlights for Spring Sewing Bright spring days and breath- less new fashions bring out the de- 'sire in every woman to start her Easter sewing right away. This Fear February 28th - March 7th as been chosen as National Sew and Save Week across Canada. During this Week your merchant invites. you to come 'into his shop to: see his wonderful assortment of fabrics, his new Daten cata- logues and useful seWing aides. When choosing your new dress or suit, give some thought to your daily needs for that is the begin- ning of good fashion. A basic dress is a "must" in every woman's wardrobe. This year you'll find the silhouette is slimmer and softly moulded to the figure. Fullness can be given to your skirt in peg top effects with pleats or tailored Pockets, A sheath type of dress is e high fashion basic dress this season. Beige tones are leading for spring and can be worn with many erent colors including shiny black patent leather, gleaming white, red, green, navy or tan in leather, fabric or alligator aéces- sories. You can. make your new dress with a softly draped or cowl neckline, short sleeves and team it with one of the new jackets for a costume that can be worn any- where. When Balenciaga introduced his low waisted dress in Paris last spring, we all shrieked 'never!' ever would we wear such a thing! Well, that is one of the tricks of fashion, a never, never design catches on and sooner or later we accept it, wear it, love it and wonder how we ever existed without it. This was the beginning of the middy look, so popular in dresses and separates now, and the boxy jackets that are big news this spring. The new suit has a slim skirt] and a trim box jacket This jacket | is narrower than. the usual boxy | type, does not flare and often is| fitted close to the hips. It is a youthful design and comfortable to wear. A suit of this type lends itself - beautifully to dressmaking patterns. You can make your suit from separate skirt and jacket pat- terns or team your jacket with a dress. This little jacket when lined with print to match a dress, makes a high fashion and extreme- ly practical costume. Don't overldok prints for spring. Your first dress can a print and you'll find a wonderful assort- ment in the fabrics this year... just the kind you like best. For prints of all types will be dispiay- ed from little geometric and floral designs to great big splashy ones. Black and white, navy and white are popular spring prints, but you'll also find a gala array of color in many delightful multi- colored motifs to make-up and wear during this festive and his-| } tory making year.

Also I was afraid I would lose him if he went overseas. I don't know what to do about the marriage. There are so many complications and I don't want to hurt anyone or cause | any scandal to injure my future | career. Should I write Joe about | my decision or await his return? Is there any way we can get a divorce, now or later, and keep it secret too? Please answer soon, as the uncertainty is wrecking my nerves. C. D. BRING INTO OPEN DEAR C. D.: You are indeed in a dilemma, leading a double life, the hidden half of which is anathema to you and a focus of frightened conflict about 'what to 07" No wonder your nerves feel over- taxed. Even the healthiest person- ality would be strained to the] breaking point by the nightmare! complexities of this situation, if the tensions of embattled anxiety were indefinitely . prolonged. An evidently you weren't too well bal- anced at the outset, or you would not have leaped into secret mar- riage. Hence your need of help is your general health. | In my opinion, the only clean cut handling of the mistake is to| bring it into the open, and openly erase it, isofar as possible. This means letting your father know about the elopement, and placing a news-story in the local news- papers to the effect that 'Mr. So- and-So announces the marriage of his daughter Carol to Corporal Joe Doakes of Midfield, which took place last November 10 in Baker- ville, Justice Somebody officiating. At present Mrs. Doakes is complet- ing her studies at Kent College, while Corporal Doakes is fighting with the such-and-such outfit in Korea." » LIST OF ADVISERS However, the first step out. of emotional chaes for you is to get the problem off your chest to some disinterested adult, who is in a first hand position to counsel ob- jectively, and who is sufficiently professional not to gossip. You need such ballast in confronting your father with your predicament, since you fear his reaction. The dean of women, or the school chaplain, might be a worthy choice of helper. Or you might turn to any wise clergyman in the com- munity; or to a family relations psychologist at the nearest Family Service Agency. Advisers of this type probably would carry weight with your father and, moreover, could suggest reputable legal aid in exploring the question of how to decently dissolve the foolish en- tanglement. It may be that this chapter of experience will per- manently discredit you for teach- ing; and, if so, you should know it now and revise your work plans forehandedly. M. H.

There are heavy, gold-rimmed ones to go with chunky jewelry, straw-rim- med ones to match Easter bonnets and gold lame numbers worn with the latest thing in ball gowns. Frames come in a variety of colors. One shade is designed to match a lime-green veil picked for wear in Westminster Abbey at Coronation time. Another, shown at a recent London spectacle fash- fon show, is an upswept "star- dust" model in 'crystal plastic, trimmed with imitation pearls and hand-wrought silver. Heavy, gold-rimmed spectacles also were featured at the Paris dress shows, along with wide slave bracelets and big gypsy earrings. They lent sophistication and charm to slim black afternoon and cock- tail dresses. NEED THREE PAIRS In London, a 20-minute fashion show given by a well-known firm of opticians emphasized that the minimum spectacle wardrobe for fashionable women is three pairs-- one for day, one for evening and sports wear.

By TRACY ADRIAN HOLLYWOOD HIGHLIGHTS Television Will Steal Plug On Film Industry's Big Night By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (AP)--When the academy awards are televised for the first time March 19, six min d | utes of the hour program will be devoted to plugging a television set. Thus the climax of what can be called one of the biggest bonehead plays in recent Hollyweod history. The film industry's brass are admitting that they have been locked in" a life-or-death struggle with TV for the last three years. Yet when the industry puts on its biggest event of the year, its com- petitor is allowed to use the event as ha showcase for selling more TV sets. It's incredible but true. The movie industry has allowed itself to be manoeuvred into this comic position. It happened because cer- tain studios withdrew their finan- cial support of the academy. The studios argued that they were not allowed any say-so in the running of the academy. Lacking enough money to put on Whitaker, director of this firm, which dates from 1820." debutante has 20 and there is an Italian countess with a pair to match every room in her house, most of her dresses, and a peach : pair to match her bedroom sheets." Prices for fashionable hand-made frames range from four to 15 guin- eas. Shape hints are: shallow frames for a short face, a deep upsweep for a long face and a low bridge for those with a long nose. TROUBLE AT SCHOOL Spectacle fashions are also inter- esting school children over the age of 12. For more than three years opticians have been complaining that school children refused to ac- cept nickel-framed glasses with thin frames and round lenses. This is the only style open to school children under the free na- tional health scheme so more and more children are talking parents into buying spectacles with up-to- date frames. This results in quar- rels due to the jealousy of those who must wear school frames. In Wales, Glamorgan's national health executive asked for a free issue of "superior-framed" spec- tacles at a cost to the ministry of £1 11s 5d each. No decision has been taken. . In Cardiff, however, education officers say the rough-and-tumble its annual show, the academy had to seek a TV sponsor. If the balking studios had maintained their sup- port--which amounted to around $20,000 or a tiny fraction of their annual expenditures--this embar- rassing event would have been pre- 'vented. .

"It's spoiling the children to give them luxury frames," said Philip Williams, of the schools health service. LOGAN ESTATE TO FAMILY estate of Sydney H.
