MYERS, Ph.D. Many mothers write me of the child, usually the boy from six to 12, who has no playmates. This child may not have lived close to where other boys of his age lived. Sometimes this lone wolf lives' in a neighborhood where many other boys of. his age live, some of whom 'gang up on him," according to the mother's report. At school this boy also may be lonely, mak- ing few or no friends there. I have answered some letters describing a few lonely lads, and offered a few suggestions to the parent or parents. Often I have advised them to try to attract to the home some boys of about the same age as this lonely boy "where you can study your child in relation to them and subtly guide him to become a better playmate." PARTIES MAY HINDER Some parents suppose they ean help this~lonely lad by "throwing parties' for him. But, as a rule, a party frus- trates him and makes it harder for him to enjoy and attract friends among all these other children at the party. A party fs about the last thing the par- ents of a lonely boy or girl should think of. He needs to mingle informally with . only one or two at first, more later. Clever parents may success- to the home. But the boys they invite may not be the ones he would choose. As this lonely lad sees through his parents' efforts to socialize him, he may grow more aware of his loneliness and feel still more frustrated. It would be far better if the stage could be set by the lad himself to bring home a pal. If none of his age is in the im- médiate neighborhood, it could be a classmate living farther away whom he brings home with him. As a rule, he would choose only one guest at first, several at a time. MAKE HOME ENJOYABLE When one or more other boys do come to your home, you will want them to enjoy being there and your son to enjoy their company. You tay have thought first of providing them with good things to eat or drink. In their own mind, such may be the chief attraction. Think of all the parents who try to attract many children from four to 12 to their prem- ises by giving them sweets and soft drink, often to find these children leaving soon after they have had the refreshments. Sometimes the lonely child, himself, tries to buy playmates through such means, But there must be more sub- stantial allurements than just fully take the initiative in at- things to eat and drink. Are while his parents might choose i doors? Are there attractive books and magazines? Are there more attractions than TV which they can view at home? If. there is outdoor space, does someone direct them there in wholesome fun? Dad may be able to install or improvise some outdoor equip- ment and guide them in play skills. At times, when alone with his son; Dad may help him practice in skills which other boys will admire and join in during group fun. As any parent knows, the lone wolf will not become a good playmate all at once; some ef- forts to this end may not bring the hoped - for results. Long- continued, patient effort of the parents will be necessary. PLAN ACTIVITIES Sometimes one or two of the boys who have bullied your lonely son and have made his ife miserable, may come to your home. Then is the time to ingratiate yourselves with them and to play up the best in them. Dad might enlist their interest then at making things with him and his lonely son in Dad's workshop or, better still, in his son's workshop. He might win one or two of them to go on a hike or go fishing with him and his son. Sometimes attendance at a summer day camp or camp fat from home has great pos- sibilities for the lone wolf. PARENTS' QUESTIONS Q. Our daughter, 7, is 'a good reader, but her brother, nearly 9, is a poor reader. He resents having her try to help him read better. A. Naturally so. See that she doesn't, or even is not present when you help her brother at there games to play quietly in- reading. tracting one or more other boys | jo" 2 A WINTER VACATION IS BECOMING MORE POPULAR Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Dooher, Poplar street, have recently returned from a fall vacation spent in sunny Ber- muda.

Che Party And Dance Marks Christmas For First-Aiders Members of the local St. John Ambulance Division, Nursing Division and their Women's Aux- iliary combined recently to hold an enjoyable Christmas party and dance, in the Steel Workers' Union Hall.
