QUESTION: How can parents
break the 'tantrum habit' in children
of pre-school age?
rf.plY: In all cases, parents
should remember that a tantrum is'
an emotional paroxysm with the child
quite out of control of himself
Spankings or other punishment only,
make things worse.

general procedures which tend to discourage
tantrums. 1) The child's outhursts
should not be made the center
of attention, and the outbursts should
not cause any noticeable excitement
in others. 2) Outside of very exceptional
circumstances, the child should
not be given the thing he is scheaming
for or bribed to be good. Yielding and
\ ribing only invite repetition of the
tantrum. 3) The child should*be made
to feel that he himself is accepted although
his behavior is disapproved.
4.) The child should be isolated from
the group as long as he is in a tantrum.
He can be told that he is annoying
the others and must stay by him.-elf
until his temper is over. If possible.
he should not be touched. lie
should not he seized or shaken. This
only gives him another cause for
protest.
These are only general precodures.
it is obvious that a prescription for
the treatment of different kinds of
problems cannot be given. Each
child must be studied individually.
t QUESTION: How many junior colleges
are there in the United States?
IIow rapidly is the number increasing?

in junior colleges has more than doubled.
In 1929-30 there were 430 junior
colleges with an enrollment of
74.088; in 1933-34 there were 521
w ith an enrollment of 107.807.

TEN SIMPLE RULES
' TO GET 25 ' MORE
WEAR FROM TIRES j
According to operators who have J
kept records, you can add 25r< to;
your tire mileage by following a few i
simple rules.
Inspect your tires every morning
i when starting out. You can tell just |
by looking at them whether they are [
about right as far as pressure is concerned.
Avoid putting more air in the front
tires than in the rear unless the distribution
of your weight, front and rear,
j indicates this should be done.
if you ubt chains in v.d^ter, don't
fasten them on the wheels too tight-1
ly. You get better traction with loose
chains. . . and longer tire wear.
Quick, jerky starts grind ruuuct '
off your tire treads. Avoid them. Similarly.
avoid sudden stops. When tires
slide it's the rubber, not the pavement.
that takes the biggest punish
Tires wear out much more rapidh
at high speeds. A moderate speed will
add thousands of miles to tire life, j
Don't bang your tires against curbf
