She investigated the situation for defective children and found the right place for Ned but at $300 a month. You, who dont know anything about it, may ask why small babies care need cost so much. This is very special care. Children of this type never can be left alone. Day and night they must be watched. Almost every child needs a nurse; nurses are well paid. Little beds need daily changing and airing; small garments are replaced as often as four times a day. As any mother of an imbecile child knows, he cannot be kept at home.

Many a heartbroken mother goes away comforted, after a sight of the long dining room with ita bowls and bibs and highchairs, the big playroom with its rings of fat little cushioned chairs, the lawns and playground. And older children, the six and eight and 10 group, have been known in countless cases to cry to come back, after a very brief contact with the big world outside. Mrs. Drake has Introduced changes here that have been copied said the old all over the union, head doctor to me. Just simple things, but things that never were done before. We first noticed the change in the noises they made when they were all together. Now that is over. "The old rule," he said, "was that they marched two and two for 20 minutes after breakfast, then climbed into the circle of chairs and stayed there. Any foot that came down was rapped. That was necessary, for they would have torn each others eyes out, then. Now little sets come down in turn, and her nurses watch and grade them.

She commuted to the city, 40 miles away. She got up at 5:30, caught a 7:15 bus, then a street car, then office hours and a counter lunch. And then the whole story backward, in burning summer heat and winter blackness. Then she broke down. Convalescent, deep in debt but undaunted, Lily began to make herself useful in the institution. She had been a war nurse; that training was invaluable. She studied the children; Ned she could not help, but he loved to be near her in a quiet, wistful little way, and many another child was brought to more normal work and play through Lilys interest. She is now one of the managers, at $400 a month, her cottage rent free, and little Jane, although aware that one d of the children in the big hospital is her brother, seems not at all disturbed by the situation. But best of all, in this most heroic and satisfactory solution, is the fact that Lily has found herself.

British industries asserted the only way for Britain to pull out of Its economic nosedive is to lower its standard of living. The federation said the Labor governments spending on social welfare schemes must be . curtailed. One of these schemes is the costly national health service. In a statement the federation also called for lower taxes, fewer government controls, and harder work to produce more without rising prices. It added that Labor party plans for nationalizing more basic industries, such as iron and steel, are the nations produc"distracting ers at a time when business problems demand their closest attention. The federation represents 6,000 owners of British industries. It corresponds roughly to America's National Association of Manufacturers. Its statement said: There can be no escape from the hard logic that our standards of living, including social services, must be cut according to the cloth we can from now on make. The vast and menacing increase constitutes in state expenditure the basic inflationary influence In our whole economy. It is this which bears most heavily upon production costs and Is one of the most serious handicaps to the future of British trade and to the living standards of our people."

Decoration To Reflect Personality In a room of her own, each homemaker has a real opportunity to reflect her own personality effectively. The room can be gay, smart, subdued but charming, with bright or brilliant colors. If tlie room is small, take it easy on pattern since too much decoration will make it seem too full and crowded lookuig. With a little more space, you can use some pattern, if this is wisely done. A picture or two, your favorites, of course, may be used on the walls, but too many of those will only add clutter. Much of what is used depends upon the proportions of the room. With lots of natural light, you need but few lamps.

But once you have a good cut, do cook it properly instead of ruining it. This latter statement may so. nd but every day a bit there are thousands of women who go to a great deal of trouble finding a perfect roast, then cook it like a pot roast which is practically stewing it.

If you have a covered roaster, resolve right now to discard the cover and invest In a rack for roast. A true roast is not, at any point during roasting, cooked with a cover. It should sit on a rack, fat side up, at low to moderate tern perature in the oven, to roast per fectly. How long should a roast be cooked? The most accurate way of determining this is to insert a meat thermometer into the meat as you place it in the oven, and when the temperature has reached its proper point the roast is done. Insert the thermometer through the center, as deep into the meat as possible. You may figure out the time to roast by pounds, but this is not nearly so accurate, especially if you are cooking roast beef to med rare. ium PREPARED WHEN PROPERLY can a real beef be delicacy.
