himself, Mr. Roderes felt Fri- day night opening would be welcomed by anyone who is on the job from eight to five. He had no particular opinion on the Monday closing issue, felt it didn’t concern him greatly.

Sid Leith: was not in favor of Monday closing, felt employ- ees might lose out on national holidays that fell on that day.

are the responsibility of the parents or persons in charge of the child, says Dr. Johnson, and

they are nearly always pro- vided in any home. There remain five things a

parent can offer the crying child.

1, Physical comfort—if the infant is wet or soiled, change him; 2, security—pick him up and cuddle him for two min- utes; 3, thirst—offer him a drink of water; 4, hunger— offer the infant a feeding; & companionship—play with him if he so desires.

When the parent fas tried all of these things, it is time for him or her to sit back and say: “I have done what I can for you as a fellow human being. If your troubles are beyond this, I cannot help you, and musi| decide whether to let you setile {your problems yourself or call someone more skilled to ascer- ltain it you are ill.” | Dr. Johnson emphasizes that the child should be attended to promptly, and after the parent has fulfilled the basic five steps in caring for the infant and when the infant left alone fails to settle, then expert advice from the amily physician should be sought.

With this method of constant repetition of an adequate but understood routine, the parent and child can come to a mutual understanding as to what re- sults when the child cries, and how much the child can expect and receive from the parent when he does ery, concludes Dr. Jobnson.

HH. J. Graysen: felt both ideas were good. Monday closing he thought would give employees a decent weekend and wouid work no hardship in this day of refrigeration in the home. Fri- day night opening he thought

to Tuesday. However, he felt that Wednesday all-day closing would be all right. On the sub- ject of Friday evening opening, Mr. Abe thought it would be better to stay open Saturday night. His reasoning was that People came to town on Satur- day anyway, and later hours of business would be better for the merchants, as well as providing

a service to the customers.
