 Dr. Pond spoke before the Ad- visors Association at Central Y. M. c. A. last night. She outlined the three methods of approach by an Advisor-flrst, the authoritarian; second, the laissez-faire method, and third, the democratic approach. She gave the results fthe test conduct ed by the University of 1owe with groups of girls and boys, which demonstrated that with the authori- tarian method the group showed little interest and lack of participa- tion; with the laissez-faire method. they became quarrelsome, disturbed and bored; with the democratic method, the group participated and showed real interest.

The Air Raid Warden
cept discipline.
 T1Haw~A RMwsaAvA1aWa

cept discipline.
 Three Reminders
 Remember always these three things which for air raid wardens must stand out above all else. First, love your work. If that isn't in you, don't offer your services, because that is the only thing which will keep you going when the emergency comes. Second, ac- cept discipline willingly. Prac- tice self discipline. Third, never miss a tour of duty. That isn't easy. You may have had a hard day in your ordinary work and you don't want to report for duty in the evening. Perhaps there's a good show at the local cinema, and you're dgo-tired. and it's raining and no night for air raids. So you go to the cinema. You say to yourself that 1t doesn't matter. But 1t does. Others have the same idea,--and the only man who turns up is the chief war; den. And he says, well, I have nothing to do,-Irl go home too" These things have happened,-
 Practice Constantly
 Practice all the time. You have to be perfect and plu-perfect In this game. Don't even stop be- cause you are tired. Have rlec- essary task always before you. You see, busy people are less both- cred with nerves than people who have nothing much to do. Keep everybody in your sector busy too. Organize the men, women and children for definite things that need to be done. This is one of the great secrets of morale,--just keeping busy when times are tense. Try to think of little tasks, little duties, for yourself and oth- CTS to do o- and you'll find that your sector is tops, with morale always at It's highest.
 There is no other particular re- ward for good work in air raid precautions,- except the chance to do more of 1t. Much of your work, indeed most of 1t, will be performed in & blackout, quite unrecognized. The reward is the knowledge that you have faced stark fear and have mastered 1t, that on every hand hell is let loose and you have overcome 1t, that the behavior of hundreds of people is governed by your be- havior, and that you stand as a rock breaking the force of the storm, a firm rock on which men can build, a good rock where chil- dren can find security. That can be your reward, and pray God to sustain you in 1t.
