OVER-PROTECT ED How often has itutieen said that an ounce of prevention; is worth a pound of cure! How ofte’n'have we pointed cut to parents the importance of proper care for their child, in order to prevent disease and- to secure for him robust health! Undoubtedly. prevention is better than cure and, 1:00,; care is required,‘ but, like all good things when carried to an extreme, they defeat their own- purpose, and may cause actual harm. In this connection, we think of the parents who display such undue con- cern over their children as not to allow them to play with other children for fear that they might contractl some disease from their playmates. This type of parent brings her young daughter to the family doctor,‘ and, in the presence of the child, tells ‘ how she has been delicate from birth, remarks that the little girl is nervous like herself, and that she has to stay home from school frequently because of pains in her head and side. Upon questioning the parent, the doctor finds that the child does not play with other children. She tires easily. She has no interest in school and is allowed to stay home when she complains of a pain. That the mother is worried is evident to the doctor and also to the child. !

We all own like to have our own way and to get arm. lout of doing unpleasant things or meet the ing difficult situations. This child con.has found an easy way; through her I: to 1 suppoaed ill-health, she has bEen able dren‘to stay away ffom school when she tract wished to do so, and to escape any es. undesired work. 4 child fails to reveal any abnormal physical condition which would ac- count for her pains and other com- plaints. The physician clearly sees that the child has drifted into this condition because of the over-pm- tective attitude of the parent. The situation is explained to the mother. She is encouraged to treat hei' daughter as a normal child, and, when the little girl complains of not feeling well, to ignore it and not to display any worry or concern about her. The child is to be encouraged to play with other children and helped to find an interest in life outside of herself. Quite simple when it is pointed out, ‘but many children, particularly one §who is an only child, pass into adult life unable to meet the problems of the world in which they must live, because over-protective parents, doing what they thought was best, have done what was fundamentally wrong lfor the children. The child' has a right to proper ‘careu He has a right to protection from disease and to a fair chance to growJ into a healthy adult. These rights are not secured from a parent who 'goes to the extreme of over- protebtion.

Wash the part with soap and water to remove crusts, scraping if necessary, then dry the spot and paint with tincture of iodine, repeat- ing the treatment daily until cured. Sulphur ointment or any good smoth- ering ointment if used conscientiously will also give good' results. Beware of Weed Seeds in Manure Weed seeds find their way to the manure pile through the digestive systems of animals and in bedding. When fresh manure 'is hauled out and spread on the land viable weed} seeds may be spread with it. If weeds are present allow the manure to remain in the pile for at least one month beâ€" fore spreading and thereby avoid the danger of increasing Weed infestation. lulu Willis, Mr. James Ross.
