So don't talk but act is the dietit- ian's advice to the homemaker who inquired how to get her overweight husband to reduce. The doctor has urged strongly that her husband e off 20 or so pounds of high living, but he is the word diet. This chap is no exception. Diet is not a favorite topic of conversa- with men. In fact, if a wife the subject up more than twice, it's bound to construed as nagging. So Seine to do? Just go ahead and fix the best meals you pos- lergic to even - |sibly can, with an eye to the cal- ories. For a time, forego makin delectable desserts and other ric specialties of the house. Turn your culinary skill to preparing, tasty low-calorie meals. One g is ce! : you'll never get your man leaner if you continue cooking as usual but serving him a sparse diet. Never! If you can have more calories, have them at noon. BROIL--DO FR Change the character of the meals, and include more protein, less starch and carbohydrates. Broil the meats--don't fry.

(CP Photo) MARY HAWORTH'S MAIL . Having Reared © Demands to be Dear Mary Haworth: Years ago my mother, a very attractive wom- an, shouldered the support of five children, after dad died suddenly. Somehow she kept a roof over us, fed and clothed us recently, until we either found jobs or launched out into marriage--for security. In girlhood I fell headlong in love with a young man whose religion, alas, caused mother to shudder at | 8U the mere thought of such an al- liance. So I ceased to consider him, but never stopped loving him. Many years later I married a fine gentleman of that identical faith (ironically) a union my mother wholly approved. I have tr make this a good marriage. Of recent years it is necessary for mother to look to us children for her support; and she favors a return to the standard of living she enjoyed as a girl in her = ents' home, 45 years ago. That takes money, more money than ker five children combined can spare for the purpose; yet she, dear lady, never relaxes her ds MAKES DISCORD * Because she. labored so mightily when we were wyeting, to keep us together as she could, we chil- dren haven't the hardihood to lay down the law to her about m and by this timidity, we crea dissension with our own helpmates. Such is the problem. Obviously it isn't our fault that her husband's poor business head caused him to lose his inheritance as well as hers.

FAMILY FAILING Dear S.T.: It has taken a bit of doing, to whittle your florwery lan- age down to the straight story of your predicament. You seem to be wearing velvet gloves and using a 10-foot pole in trying to get the facts across. Evidently it is cont- rary to family tradition, to look an unpleasant fact in the face and deal with it simply and concretely. To by her childrn's feel ings about her, your mother ap- parently made a big Fisduction, emotionally speaking, of doing her arental dul towards them--a uty she couldn't in conscience es- cape. It seems she saw herself in fantasy as a heroine and mar- Ty led to support through lean years -- and passed this notion along to them, indelibly. in widowhood, during the children's dependency, was to play certain fantasy roles about herself, in ad- dition to doing 'the necessa ;|chores. She clung to a fantasy of herself as the lady of the manor, still her parents' pampered daugh- ter; and superimposed upon this was a newer image of herself, gallantly at bay in dealing with wolves of want--a horrid situation for which she variously held fate, husband, children, et al "to blame." Bik. REALISTIC The confused purpose of this mixed-up performance was to dis- sociate herself (if ible though it wasn't possible), from the actual reverses that she personally was experiencing, socially and financi- ally. Hr sentiments and ego-de- fences were infantile, of course; but she was dof the best she could, considering shape of her psychological equipment at the time. The result is that while she brought the children through to comparatjve safety, she certainly didn't prepare them to live realis tically. Your mother's past status, of privilege or hardship, is one thing --water under the bridge, frankly. The family's present ability to make ends meet and take care of her, if need be, is another story | the civilized solution of the con-' flict between your limited re-, sources and her disproportionate demands, is to simply spell out the facts to her, and state your limit, and stick to it-- M.H.

'|to CHILD GUIDANCE THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Friday, March §, 950 9 Parent's Persuasiveness May Often Save Child from Danger By G. CLEVELAND MYERS Yesterday I explained why we should not rush to a Gi gd run him down when he has some shar Jekileus thing in his grasp or small ore! object in his mouth, We saw that doing so could cause him run 'and fall with the sharp thing in his hand or to swallow the object in his mouth. We also observed that punish- ng him . when * apprehended with a dangerous object in his hand or mouth is, as a rule, unwise, since it might put him in greater peril next time. This doesn't meant that punish- ment is unwise to deter him from most other known dangerous ob- jects and placs, such as the stove or open fireplace or street, or train him in avoiding certain ob- i-ots about the house he could harm : A . ORBIDDEN OBJECT Today, I want to consider with you the folly of running a tot down to take from him an object he well knows that he should not have but which might not be dan- grous to him, For example, while the mother is assembling some small objects in a drawer, a three-year-old tot, standing by her, seizes one of them and runs off with it. The mother runs after him till she catches him and forces the object from him: Be AR ARR on youngster suppos was worth the oy Instead of running after him, to|she could have waited. The chances would be good that he would choose Vv soon of his own free will and accord to put the object back. Or, if earlier, she had taught him well the meaning of No, she could have stopped him when he was about to seize the object, by uttering No, only once and ih If she were going to do any- thing at all, she should have' ad- ministered some effective punish- ment, even after repeating the command several times. she had been wiser, of course, she would not have repeated. Punish- ment would have immediately fol. lowed his failure to obey the first forbidding. Skill has been a tradition with us for over a quarter of a century. LEWIS - OPTOMETRISTS 3KING ST. L.
