TrainingThe
CHILD
BY WILLIAM BYRON FORBUSH.PHD.
( (TT E IS so cross that 1 am sure he
J71""must be getting Better."
Convalescent days, are, except for
the lessening of anxiety, the hardest
during the protracted illness of a little
child.
He has always been so active and in-
confined, so dependent upon his play
mate for pleasure, so Interested in play.
that the period of recovery becomes
wearisome to himself, and exhausting
to his caretakers. The nurse is lucky
who has been a kindergartener or has
had a course in play.
The amusements of the sickroom are
necessarily limited. They may be ab
sorbing, but they ought not to be ex
citing. They should all be suited to a
sitting or lying posture, and they
should not tax the eyes, the fingers or
the trunk muscles. Some of them
should be suited to solitary play, which
is the happiest and most restful kind
under the circumstances. - The playfel
low may naturally hope that a few of
them at least .shall prove to have suf
ficient serial interest to be taken up
with renewed pleasure day after day.
Best of all, they should be used to en
courage self-control, self-reliance and
cheerfulness.
Playn for Little Children.
Babies like things that appeal to
their senses; which they can put In
their mouths, handle and make a noise
with. The kit of playthings for the
baby's bedroom does not have to be
expensive. Such common articles as
smooth stones, spools, iron keys, bells,
tin dishes to clash together, rubber ani
mals, boxes, blocks and 'bottles are
quite as acceptable as anything the toy
store furnishes. . A ball suspended
above the feet to induce stretching will
encourage active exercise. If the baby
is old and strong enough to sit up for
a while a pasteboard shoe box full of
bright objects such as a shoe horn, an
old tea strainer, some shiny metal toys
and pieces of colored cloth will in turn
catch and hold his attention.
For the Kindergarten Child.
iFor the- child of kindergarten age
things to construct and change are de
lightful. There, are light nests of boxes.
easy sectional puzzles, small nails to
pound into bars of soap, soap bubbles
to blow. By taking a small, soft pine
board and driving nail holes half an
inch deep close together a homemade
peg board is fashioned, into which
ends of matches may be set in patterns.
If the child -can ' be bolstered up, a
sand box set just over the bed and
snuggled up close to the child will be
an inexhaustible pleasure. It should
be furnished with spoons and small
kitchen dishes with which to dijv and
mould, and clothespins, spools, buttons
and scraps of bright ribbons with
which to make men and scenery.
Dolls and Quiet Games. .
The doll is of course a standard me
dium of pleasure at this period. The
Noah's ark represents a larger family
assortment and may either stand on
the sand box or sail over the bed
clothes. When Stevenson was a little
sick boy he used to play, you remem
ber, with toy soldiers on "the pleasant
hills of counterpane."
Children of this age never like to
play with any one thing for a very
long time, and when they are ill games
must be extremely short and simple.
Do you remember "the old, old. old,
old lady and the boy that was half
past three" who used to play the game
In which each guessed where the other
was (imaginatively) hiding? Such a
story-game is ideal.
Stories told during this period should
all be 'happy and soothing.
A prism hung in the window to make
"light-birds" is always a Joy.
Plays for School Chlldrea.
Youngsters of this age are increas
ingly querulous and demanding; Noth-Ing-'
seems to last. I have found. a very
godd way to help pass the -time was
to do up a number of simple amuse
ments in separate packages, marking
them. "To be opened at 10." "Not to be
opened till after a nap." etc, so that
some fresh surprise would be antici
pated every hour of the day. Another
way of arriving at the same end Is to
fasten each package to the magnetized
"fish" of a magnetic fishpond'and let
the child fish for them with the fish
hook. The articles enclosed should
consist of materials rather than fin
ished playthings, such as sewing-cards,
hitttnn. nd cardboard to make but
ton dolls, bottles and scraps for bottle
dolls, clothespins and crepe paper for
clothespin dolls, color-stencils, paints
and pictures and paper with which to
make and rm scraDDoons.
Things That Call for Skill.
As this Is still the doll-age. the child
will enjoy making dollhouses and fur.
niture out of cardboard, papering doll
houses and cutting various articles out
of wholesalers" catalogues ana news
paper advertisements. Children be
tween 10 and la will like Deaa-worK
and weaving, tinkering with old elocks
and watches, clay-modeling, coloring
pictures and making small traps ana
whistles.
For solitary play, puzzles, stamp
collections, Jackstrawt. Jackstones,
tumbleline. anagrams and other letter-
games, lotto and solitaire are sug-
gestedL
X have found that to tell a chapter
or two of a continued story each even
ing and ask the child to Illustrate each
installment the next day in a notebook
was of tireless Interest. One mother
encouraged her little girl to give
names, ages and characters to each of
her dolls and carry on their adven
tures from night to night herself. Thus
she succeeded in putting her to sleep In
good and happy company.

an old typewriter, practicing a mu
sical instrument, doing pyrography,
passe partout or painting, playing cro
kinole, checkers and one of the minia
ture baseball games.
These devices are of importance, not
only because they give happiness and
hasten recovery, but because they are
direct antidote to those vices of ill
health, self-pity and inconsiderateness
of others.
Hon to Dlicoorage a Boy From Being
Stingy. -
To the Editor: 'Ferdinand is posi
tively stingy. He won't share his
playthings. He never wants to treat
his friends. It seems to hurt him 1o
spend money. This strikes me as a bit
unusual, ought I try to alter his atti
tude? JAMES F. C.
So far as this trait Indicates thrift
and a sense of values it Is encourag
ing. Perhaps he has rather unusual
self-sufficiency and finds that he does
not need many things to entertain him
self .with. Stinginess cannot be cured
in B day. In a movie scenario was. a
sentence that read: "The miser leans
up against the wall and grows gen-
erdus." You can't see generosity grow.
To ge him to give, you mast get him
to love. Yon can encourage a friend
ship with some particularly generous-
minded boy. lou can bring to his
knowledge cases of real misery. His

Idea of separating a small, regular
sum from his budget with which to be
kind and friendly. It is these cool, sys
