Erroneous opinion that young boys du not need to be taught how to keep their clothes, in order, their skin and scalp clean, how to use soap and a scrub brush in the bath, or how to keep their room1 tidy. Young boys should be taught these things and the wise paren will see that he is taught them. Preparation For Future

I agree that no boy should be made a sissy by a too indulgent mother or a tum finleky mother. But being a normal youth does not exclude an appreciation for cleanliness and tidiness.

The mumerous cases of ache which young men reveal are part- ly due to indifferent skin wash- ing and scalp cleansing. Why any boy thinks he does not need a face cloth or complexion brush to use with soap to cleanse his skin, is beyond my understanding. A boy should use more soap and more scrubbing than a girl for he is supposed to be more active physi- cally and thus secretes more free- ly. To be truly clean a boy needs a shower in the morning before school (which is bound to be a hasty calwash!) plus a thorough soaking and sudsy scrubbing at night.

Instead of running ધ comb through a stubborn crop of hair and calling it grooming, he should learn to use his brush as does his little sister. Fifty to a hundred strukes a day are not too many and he should brush from the scalp up not from the scalp down as is the male custom.

Also, instead of pouring sticky goo on his locks which will be sparse too soon anyhow, he! should be taught to rub his scalp with a cleansing tonic and a piece of cotton. Keep a little box of those trim cotton squares on hand near his tonic bottle and show him how to part his hair and rub on the tonic. Two or three times a week should be sufficient to keep
