On the left Is Anne Storrs. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Vance Storrs of New York. Mrs. Conrad Trubenbach of Pelham, N. V., Is in the center, and on the rinht is Betty McCarthy of Jamaica Plain, Boston. Pointers forParents In the left-handed child the speech area Is on the right Hide of the brain; in the right- handed child it Ih on the left side. It was found in a study of GOO stuttering children that about eight per cent wore originally left-handed but had been forced to use the right hand. It has been estimated that only about one per cent of non-stutterers aro left- handed. I'nrents and teachers arc thereforo not to forco left-handed children to uso tho right hand, hh this might interfere with the development of tho speech area and causa stuttering. Trouble nrises when there are two groups, parents and children, teachers and pupils, each group having Its own alms and organi zation which tho other is not al lowed to share, does not share and docs not care to share. More families us such, more personal confidences, family councils, fam lly social life, greater community of Interests, moro reasons for bo lug at homo than those of eat ing, sleeping, and "changing clothes to go tome where else," are crying needs.

Careful Investigation has dem onstrated over ami over again that the light by which the Hi 1 1I studies should fall over his lefj ahould-r if he is right-handed and oor bis right shoulder If lit is left-handod. In no rase should the light rump directly Into the eyes. At night the problem Is of j ten difficult been uso gas jots and electric fixtures aro not always aujuaianic. i no illumination should be soft though not dim. The use of a properly adjusted and shaded student lamp Is ad visable. 1 f for some reason it is utterly Impossible to supply light other than that coming directly toward his eyes, teach him to use an eye shade. Vitamin C is n fragile sub stance. It is readily destroyed by heat In cooking processes, but there aro many ways of introdu cing it into the menu In combina tion wllh sliced oranges and ba nanas.
