BY BARBARA GESSFORD, I6,
Mount Rainier (Md.} High School.

Mount Rainier (Mdj High School.
Dorothy Wohlfarth, IS, junior at
Mount Rainier High School, has an
attractive and amusing collection
of miniature dogs. The hobby
started four years ago when her
younger sister, Jean, 13, who also
goes to Mount Rainier High, came
home from her vacation with some
odd little dogs.
Among the unusual items in the
collection are two little dogs slid
ing down sliding board, Dorothy's
favorite of the miniatures; two
little scotties on balancing team,
and three dogs playing in a band"
THESE dogs are the gifts of Dor
othy's father, who brought them
home from three different trips to
as many cities.
Her father was in Charleston,
S. c., on business trip when he
spotted the miniature figure of a
dog playing a fiddle 1t was on dis
play in store there. He bought
it Immediately. The second of the
musician dogs" one playing the
saxophone, was bought in New
York, and the third, a dog at the
drums, in Atlantic City.
Despite the fact these dogs came
from widely separated places, all
three of them are of the same style
They are brown metal figures.
Other relatives and friends have
contributed to Dorothy's collection
and her souvenirs come from many
States and popular vacation resorts.
Dorothy is a great dog lover but
confines her hobby to the minia-
lures. She lives at 4452 Ivy street,
Brentwood, Md.

newspapers from Honolulu to New

helpful suggestions for newspaper

style type throughout the paper and
keeping the factors of legibility, dig
nifty and economy always in mind.
Round-table discussions were held
Saturday morning with the dele
gates divided according to the size
of their school. General criticism
and aids to correcting weak points
were given by newspapermen from
neighboring towns.
'The possibility of high schools
sponsoring their own radio stations

Of radio department of the United

NON-FLYING JOBS FOR GIRLS
Aviation Is not entirely a mans
business. There are many nom
flying jobs in aviation which women
can do better than men-interior
decorators for airliners, designers
for flying clothes, dietitians at air
commissaries, factory jobs where
skillful fingers and delicate sense

are but q few of the many openings

Each boy was given 10 baskets. I
had the ones over in the Northwest
part of town, so I was the last one to
return. When reached school
again I found one basket had been
brought back because no one could
find where the people lived.
BY this time, I believe my heart
was full of what Thanksgiving really
means, so I began thinking about
the family that would not get their
basket. I kept thinking of all of
those faces that had looked so
grateful short time ago, and be-
fore knew 1t I was carrying the
basket out to the car determined to
find the house if possible.
The first thing I did was TO stop
at the post Office, where found out
that the house was about Is miles
out in the country. I then started
up country roads, asking at differ
ent places until I finally found
where the people lived.
In the house, or shed, man and
his wife and two little children were
seated around an old kitchen stove.
They did not say word when I
walked in, but that woman's eyes
held a look of thanks that I will
never forget.
I was late to work. but my boss
excused me when he learned the
circumstances. I believe I really
learned the meaning of Thanks
giving.

Parents Go to School
At Alice Deal
BY CLAIRE JENNINGS, IA,
Alice Deal Junior High school.

Parents go to school now-at least,
that's what happened at the last
meeting of the Alice Deal Junior
High School Home and School Asso-
citation.
The parents went first to the
auditorium to find out the numbers
of their home rooms. After a short
talk by their section teachers, who
told them just what the children do
during their section periods, a bell
rang and the parents proceeded TO
their first period classes. They fol-
lowed the regular morning program
of the students, but their classes
lasted only Is minutes instead OF
the usual As.
This experience gave the parents
q f1rst-hand insight into the daily
classes of the students and they
seemed to enjoy 1t greatly.
