MYERS, PhD Many a child, especially a boy of the elementary grades, has lower standards of groom- ing than his mother has. This fact is the source of many un- happy scenes on a school morn- ing. In her desperation, the mother may actually take over getting him ready for school. When she washes his hands, face, neck and ears, she knows they are washed well. Besides she may find it much easier to do these things for him than to get him to do them himself. Or, at times when he's about to leave for school, seeing he is not neatly and cleanly groomed, she may angrily go at it herself and do it not so gently. Then he may leave for school in an unpleasant mood, Next morning, the next, and the next the same may happen. If his extra tasks cause him to be late for the school bus, the mutual irritations may be high and continue high if he misses the bus and she drives him to school in her car. Suppose the neighbors 'vho usually take him in their car must wait for him or suppose it is dad who must wait. You parents who have chil- dren from three to five can prepare them now to avoid such problems when they will attend school later. You can practice them in their earlier years at getting themselves ready for meals and appearing there promptly, nicely groomed. However, in the earlier years you may not yourself have as high standards for your child and may more readily relax on the standards you have. Be- sides he has no rigid time sched- ule to be met. It's easy for you to relax on such matters. ASK QUESTION It is also easy for you to help the younger child to dress wha he dawdles and fools around, easy for you to do many things for him which he could do him- self. But if you will often take stock of your ways with the pre- school child you will wisely ask yourself often how well you are preparing him for school morn- ings as time goes on. Suppose you now find that not just inspect your child be- fore he is ready to go to school and keep sending him back un- til he passes inspection? Once he discovers what you mean by proper readiness he may soon Strive to meet your require- ments, assuming they are rea- Coat Dresses Becoming Popular| KEEP IN TRIM In All Colors, Types Of Fabric By MARGARET NESS NEW YORK (CP)--The coat dress is popular this spring. It appeared in most of the collec- tions shown here to the fashion press and comes in practically every fabric. To wear under spring coats and for later solo wool coat dresses are ideal. Geoffrey Beene notes a great comeback in Madras woollens, graphic and abstract plaids in coat dresses. He often softens the severity of the usual coat dress with dovetail pleats. Some of his coat dresses also take on a military detail, such as the new militaire standup collar, in a green - burgundy - and - white Madras, lightly leather-belted. Other wool coat dresses in- clude Norell's sleeveless style in wool jersey, in the new top yellow shade, and Zuckerman's wool twill, short-sleeved style in a butterscotch shade with pearl, gold-rimmed buttons. He also likes a long-sleeved style in white wool jersey with two rows of gold buttons. Navy is always featured in the spring. In the New York cented with a white linen stripe. Another navy wool is in hori- zontal stripes and side 2losed. It sports a small white collar. Townley's navy plaid is short- sleeved, with standup collar. STEP-IN LOOK PREVAILS Coat dresses emerged as a style in themselves back in the 1940s when soft dressmaker coats stepped into the fashion limelight. These were so soft, so easily cut that they could serve either as a coat or a dress. The transition from the stress on coat to that of dress was quickly made. For years the typical coat dress, like a coat, buttoned right down the front. It was a classic style, loose or belted according to the fashion. This season there has been emphasis on a step-in look, both in coats and dresses. They are not completely buttoned to the hem. This further confuses the issue as to identity. Even fab- rics aren't a reliable criterion. Many late spring coats are in what we usually regard as dress Hannah Troy sums up the viewpoint: "Coat dresses are dresses with good coat man- ners." She introduces "effort- less little dresses meant to take the place of ensembles, come spring." These have a coat dress look but are not buttoned all the way down the front. Ben Reig likes the step-in, too, in what he calls fake coat dresses. They are his answer to a crisp spring day. Included is a black-and-white diagonal wool with a high-riding belt. Another version this season is Chester Weinberg's suit dress in a bold plaid pattern of grey-and-vanilla wool. It's a mock style, with three large buttons spaced to the waistline. PRIZE FOR CHECKS Several coat dresses were shown in the National Collection show held in Montreal and spon- sored by the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Un- jon. Auckie Sanft of Montreal won the top Union Label Award in the dress category with a checked beige - green - and- pink style. The front is double- breasted with a wide shaped pleat with hidden pockets. A multi-colored Irish tweed coat dress by Louis Schrier of Montreal allows the skirt to swing from a shaped small top. Even more of a pyramid swing is the coat dress by Mayfair of Montreal, in white textured wool, with gold buttons march- ing across one shoulder and down the side. Coat dresses have also in- vaded late-day wear. This in- terest dates back at least 10 years. The classic style often gives way to the fashion of the t. So this many are semi - pyramids, falling straight from high armhole to widened hemline. Others are high-belted. Some have jewelled buttons.

Think of all the emotional orgies in the family getting a slowpoke ready for school on time. Often the strain could be eased if the family rose 15 or 20 minutes earlier. Let your child know that if he is not ready and _ properly groomed for school he will re- main home that day and have to sit unamused doing nothing while school is in i with Fine Dress and Drapery the latest designs, colors, ials.
