CLEVELAND MYERS With the varied, well-selected yrepared baby foods available to- lay, the problem of getting the yaby from six to eighteen months ir so to enjoy foods other than nilk, may not be very difficult. Usually, the baby likes the nashed (later, cut) vegetables and ruit from little cans or jars which nay be kept fresh in the refrig- srator for two or more succeding ieedings. It's relatively easy to in- luce child to get a properly yalanced diet. Besides, it usually s more economical than to pre- yare comparable foods by cooking Wisely, the mother places be- 'ore es he doing hs meal jome sm. s oast or zwei- yack and the like for him to pick 1p with his bare hands and eat vhen he chooses. He thus gets good chewing experience and prac- ice in self-feeding. Too, this youngster is fed when 10 one but the mother is present, with no one to distract him or uss about his eating. Most 'eating problems arise at shout two years of age, when a shild begins to eat f from the 'amily table with the f: . Na- rally, this young child want few foods on the table that are ot good for him. But if he has earned to accept a quiet "No" as 'inal away from the table, this will be no serious problem. DEVELOPS PREFERENCES But he will be offered many new and unfamiliar foods, and will want considerable portions of one sr two he prefers, readily avoid- ing others he needs for a properly balanced diet. Then the mother is tempted to press him to eat the foods he says he doesn't want. It's possible for both parents, sometimes aided and abetted b a grandparent or an older child, to devote their sole attention to this hampered and annoyed child at mealtime, with the result that he may be the centre of tragic emotional orgies. Some mothers have written me of strained re- lations between the mother and father over such matters. Let me make some suggestions: ONLY ONE BOSS Let one parent be solely in charge of the child at the table, and all the rest of the family be unconcerned and silent about his eating. Let him feed himself and with his bare hands if he chooses, help- ing him only when he needs help. Don't tell him he must eat. Let him choose, but limit his choices. Asumme that if he can't have what he wants, or as much of any food as he wants; he will grow hungry enough for what he needs. Place before him only one food at a time. Make the portion very small. Of a new food or one he has refused, make the portion so small as merely to be visible--one or two peas, one disk of carrot, a piece of string bean, a quarter of an inch long. Let him know that he will have no more food until he has eatn the last portion on his plate.

THE STARS SAY HOUSEHOLD HINT Men's ties should be smoothed out after each wearing and hung By ESTRELLITA FOR TOMORROW Reflect carefully this day be- fore taking any action which in- volves financial risk. This is not a day in which to engage in.spec ulation of any kind or to indulge extravagant whims. Stick to the conservative side in all monetary matters. With the moon in Sagittarius, however, this i$ an excellent per- jod in which to make decisions affecting your career, to engage in legal consultations or to make plans for a trip. Those in the musical field are under especially beneficent influences. Domestic matters should prosper. If tomorrow is your birthday, you may look ahead to a year in which achievement will depend largely on your personal efforts. Toward the end of the year you should receive some co-operation from close business and personal friends. Not only is speculation fool- hardy for you this year, but it would also be unwise to indulge in extravagance! or to lend large sums of money. Domestic and so- cial affairs should prosper, and there is a possibility that you will make a short trip in the fall.

And the most beautiful piece of costume jewelty, or, in- deed, the real thing in gems, won't register unless it is at its bright and shiny best. So along with keeping clothes in top order and taking care of accessories, see to it that your jewelry gets regular cleaning. GEM JEWELRY Diamonds and the beautiful col- ored gems -- rubies, sapphires, emeralds, aquamarines -- whether set in gold, platinum or palladium, should have regular washings, us- ing lukewarm water and mild soap. Be careful the water is lukewarm, since either hot or cold water may be harmful to these stones. An old toothbrush does a good job of getting into crevices of the settings and the backs of stones where dirt is apt to accumulate. Rinse with clear warm water, dry carefully. Pearls, whether artificial, cul- tured or Oriental, should be kept really pearl-like for their delicate beauty to be really appreciated. Give artificial pearls a frequent going-over with a clean, soft cloth and then, once every so often, dampen a soft cloth with mild soap and water, carefully drying every trace of moisture. Oriéntal or cultured pearls can stand an occasional washing fn lukewarm water and mild soap. Dip into suds quickly, rubbing clean with a soft cloth, then just as. quickly rinse in fresh lukewarm water and dry thoroughly. A good way to do this is to stretch the strand taut on a soft towel.' PROFESSIONAL "CARE Fine Oriental and cultured pearls deserve professional care, apart from home care, and should get an occasional cleaning by a jew- eler. At the sane time, the catch will be examined as well as the pearls. : Costume jewelry should be gone over constantly to keep it at its best, especially when the stones are Set with glue. In lieu of a dunking, such pieces shoyld be cleaned with a cloth dampened in water to which a few drops of ammonia have been added. Where stones are held in place by prongs, and not foil-backed, give them the soap, water and toothbrush treat- ment as outlined for: real pieces.

The advertising ina Newspaper is also wcoeplbod with authority. Most of us can trace our newspaper reading back to childhood's first interest in comic pages and weekly features for chil- dren. Later, we graduated to sports and crossword puzzles through to help wanted, apartments to rent, baby care, bridge and gardening and politics and finance. The daily newspaper is the authority on world events and what is happening at home; it chronicles births and deaths and the weather forecasts; it keeps women in touch with fashion and men abreast of the money marts. Only a small percentage of its columns are required to record the dramatic and the shocking news of the day, Largely, its stories are of everyday living, the simple events that touch all our lives. Radio broadcasts of news throughout the day are almost continuous, yet more people than ever before buy and read the newspa- per. The printed word carries authority. - For what is showing at the theatre or featured at the stores, we turn the pages of the newspaper. A man may want to buy a new car, a radio or a power tool; but he may have heard all about the advantages of this or that model but he still wants to "read all about it," to see the claims set down in authoritative black and white for his care- ful study. Whether it is a new cosmetic, a new rug, dress or decorating device that has her current interest, a woman looks to her newspaper's advertising for guiding facts. She, too, wants to first "read all about it." Truly, the newspaper is the meeting place and market place of the world. THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE - t
