Mrs. Clapper's article she read examples of how parents solved the problems of their two children. The boy, a timid child, had red hair of an exceptionally brilliant hue. He was prepared as a baby and small child to think of his hair as unusual but something of which to be proud. The result, when he was called "Red" or "Carrot Top" by his schoolmates, was that he thought he was being especially favored. His sister, at three years of age, insisted on crossing a busy street to play with another little girl. Her mother could not prevent it, no matter what he did. In desperation she called her in, gave her a long talk, explaining how people in cars could not always see little girls crossing the street. Then placing a chair at one end of the room to represent the friend's house, and the center of the room the street, she asked the child to cross. Suddenly the mother rushed at the child with a doll buggy, knocking her down and running the buggy over her. Never again did the youngster cross the street alone and although now a grown woman, she has never forgotten this lesson and is an exceptionally careful driver.
