THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21,1921 5> Activities 9S [North Jhore Chita by Rutk RLrle^V HE WILMETTE WOMAN'S CLUB extends a cordial invita- tion to the men and women of the village to hear J&rs. Helen B. Paulsen, the child psychologist, give her most interesting ( lecture, illustrated with puppets, on "The Job of Being a 5rent," this evening at eight^oiclock, at the clubhouse. Special music will be furnished by the Young Woman's Auxil- rv, ancTMr^JVEL Roth_will-be hostess of-tbe^veningrâ€" Sympa^heticlnterpretation of Mother Goose, her methods and their "application to the home life of every family, is the work of Mrs. Paulsen, lecturer on child life. Herself a mother, with the very spirit of community motherhood that inspired the quaint and competent Mrs. Goose, she carries to the grown-ups of America a wonderful message of affection and understanding in the training and helping of little men and women. Mrs. Paulsen's theory is that many of a child's most important habits are formed, not in the first three years of life, but in the first three months. Not in any sense an evangelist, Mrs. Paulsen nevertheless pos- sesses the knack of sending her audience away with that same feel- ing of contact with truth and of new understanding, that character- izes all great community helpers. And perhaps many of us doubt that there ever was a Mother Goose! Away back in the primitive Colonial days, there lived in the village of Boston a Mr. Goose. Hisjirst wife died, having done her duty to family and state by bringing forth a family^f seven_Xater_ Mr. Goose took unto himself a second wife. Six more babies blessed the^ union, which made thirteen in the family, husky boys and girls who took a deal of managing. But Mrs. Goose didn't mind at all. She had a talent for hand- ling children â€"indeed, a genius. Within a short time her wonderful ability as a mother brought happiness not only to her own family, (but to all the children of the village, who came to her with their childish woes and problems and were comforted and guided. So that she was known not only as Mrs. Goose, but as Mother Goose, to all Boston. visiting her,^u^eellcdlirniakhijTcop- ics of all» her rhymes. These he pub- lished in the form of a little book of Mother Goose rhymes, which im- mediately became vastly popular. These jingles have a message and a meaning for grownups as well as children. Red Riding Hood, trying to help her grandmother and pursued by the wolf; Little Boy Blue, fast a- sleep and neglecting his tasks'; Jack, valorously slaying the four giants- all these simple stories of Mother Goose have special application to the moods and doings of little folks and big. „ Mrs. Paulsen presented this same lecture on Thursday afternoon of this week before a large gathering of members and guests at the Woman's Library club of Glencoe. The next meeting of the Current Events class of the Wilmette Wo- man's club is scheduled fpr Wednes- day afternoon of next week at two- thirty o'clock at the clubhouse. Miss Julie Adams and Mrs. E. S. Adams will continue their course in Current Events, which proved most interest- ing at the last meeting. One interest- ing feature was the new map of Eu- rope which is just off the press, which Mrs. Adams has in her possession,â€" ^STong with her big hearted under- standing of children, Mother Goose [was possessed of no mean ability as a (poet. Her rhymes hit straight at the [heart of the simple problems of child- [hood, on short and homely words that even the little tots can understand. [Mother Goose herself, modest, busy [woman that she was, held these jin- Igles in light esteem and laughingly de- clined to write any of them down. But [when all the children were grown, one ' her daughters married a printer, i'lio. by dint of patience and a note- book which he always carried when THIS CHRISTMAS Trade at / THE HOUSE OF KlRCHBERjni DIAMONDS VJI FOUNDED 1867 Watches, Jewelry, Silverware 104 N.
