TWO MEDFORD (OREGON)
Strict Teachers
Often Favorites
Says Psychiatrist
Chicago The strictest teach
ers are often; "the favorites" of
their, pupils, a well-known psy
chiatrist declares in an , article
in the January issue of 41 Na
tion Parent - Teacher, - monthly
magazine of the National Con
gress of Parents and Teachers.
' Dr. Flanders Dunbar .writes,
"Strange as it may seem, chil
dren like order, and they like
help in planning their? tune
Hence their preference for the
teacher who makes them toe the
mark. -She
urges parents arid teach
ers iofollow a "consistent mid
dle ,'way"- in" disciplining chil'
dreh. 'Overly rigid discipline or
no discipline at all is better than
. inconsistent discipline," she
maintains. "Too much strictness,
if consistent, or too little strict"
ness, if consistent, is better , than
weaving a" wobbling course." A
' child subjected to erratic . disci"
pline, Dr.' Dunbar warns, may
even become delinquent.
She. makes' clear, however ',
that she strongly opposes either
extreme in discipling. The child-
rearing philosophy widely; held
in recent years, and summed up
in the phrase; "Darling; do as
you ' please." actually "has not
been progress,'; she contends.
"The ' pendulum, we know
now, ran swing too . far in each
direction," ; Dr. Dunbar points
out. ; "Those who try to hold it
at one extreme or the other find
themselves in trouble, and they
are likely to have troubled chil'
dren. While unswerving advo
cates of one or. the other of these
.views ; argue ; incessantly about
modern education and what it
is, their children remain unedu
cated.".. :
. She . emphasizes that "chil
dren must, blow pff steam . .
Without f a. : safety valve, they
burst the boiler; without control,
they lose backbone and focus,"
she explains. "What then," she
asks Vis the Jbest way of letting
children, give -vent to their feel
ings?" : - r - .
v-. ' Dr. Dunbar maintains .that the
child whose parents and teach
ers are striving to hold a middle
way "has a dependable safety
Valve." V-rf ,r ,.
... She recalls a visit she made
to : the. home of ."ultra-progressive
parents,"' whose two small
children played - tricks on ,the
guests, upset teacups, and called
their - mother "an , unpretty
name." "Sooner or later, if they
continue, this madcap, uncon
trolled behavior, they're going
to bump infthe few." the psy
chiatrist .observes. r ' "; "
' .- She : indicates , that books on
how. to rear children cannot give
parents all .the knowledge, they
need.; "The desire to be a good
parent isnt : enough, ' if all we
do is read conscientiously the
voluminous -' literature, of DO'S
and DONTS for parents. For
getting what we know about
ourselves and our children
and also our own. innfer re
sourceswe may become fright
ened and confused.. . . The fath
er and mother who 1 are really
interested ; in their .child, . who
are more or less able to think
of him objectively and keep him
outside the aura of the troubles
that they have to face together,
have enough' common sense to
use knowledge .wisely."

On Making oi Shirts I
tWhen does it pay to sew shirts
for the men of the family?
Miss Murle Scales, Oregon
State college' extension clothing
specialist, discusses this in a new
circular. i
To help you decide whether
to, make or buy shirts for the
men of your'family, she suggests
these questions: '. ; ;; ..u h
Do you. have time to make
shirts?: Do" you. have " the- skill
to' make; one that your husband
will be proud to wear?. Can you
buy the type of shirt you want
as inexpensively?" Can you find
satisfactory patterns? Can you
get a shirt that fits as well, or
better, by making it? Will the
shirt you make wearas well? .
Miss. Scaies has a new circu
lar that explains in detail how
to sew men's shirts. It tells how
to' select the. pattern and fabric
i-and-hbw to cut and sew it. 5
She gives variations for both
heavy and lightweight fabrics, j
This new circular can be ob
tained' from county extension
