| |WhyGrow
|Old?
By Josephine Lo,oman

AS war can unite nation with
one purpose and into one great
spirit, it can also knit the family
closer together.
There is something extremely
lonely about the average modern
family. 1t has ceased to be one
unit and has committed suicide by
splitting itself up into various sep
arate parts, each one of which moves
away in a different direction. 1t
lacks the deep feeling of oneness
which gave the comfort and
strength of the whole to each indi-
vidual member.
When life was Harder and cars
were fewer the family was held to-
gether by close companionship and
common interests. It's collective
force was directed toward one pur-
pose. This may have been getting
the crops in or doing the canning or
maneuvering the eldest chile
through college, or homely sister
into marriage.
Today the average family has lost
the habit of spending leisure to-
gether. 1t is hodge-podge affair.
The members may be devoted but
they have little understanding of
one another and only small
amount of companionship. The
father Is rushed and under pressure
and his less busy hours are spent on
the golf course or at his club. The
mother is entangled in social and
club affairs. The children dash of
in opposite directions.
1t takes time, years and long
winter evenings by the flreside to
build that communion of spirit
which warns the heart years after
ward, even in memory.
Today. when the use of our car
is curtailed and may be abandoned
later on, with taxes to pay, with
disaster threatening each hearth,
the family will again draw close
together in effort and love. The
true elements of a real home will
be sharply drawn against the fam
ing background of world war. I
hope that we will never return to
the old synthetic way of life!

What Name Does
Child Use for
His Parents!
Choice of Mother
And Father Must
Decide Matter
Bv Emily Post

"A young motner, VINO Tells me Sne
! is from the North, but now living in
the South asks whether her children
when answering a curt "yes" or
mo" should add father" or
mother or whether they should
say "yes, sir or "yes, maam." This
last is the custom of the community
where this family now lives. She
writes:
II can feel quite plainly that our
neighbors think we are not teaching
our children to be correct and po-
lite. I know you've always held to
when in Rome do as the Romans
do but my husband and both pre-
fer to be called Mother and Father
So won't you please advise us?"
I think first of all that parents
certainly have the right to choose
the names by which their children
call them. Second, think mother
and father are the two most beauti-
full names in any language. And
that names used also for strangers
can scarcely replace them. should
not like "maam" in place of
mother" (or MON" or any name
that is hers alone). Nor should I
like any name in place of father or
Dad-except in the case of grown
son who does, according to best
taste, say "sir" when speaking to his
father on formal occasions-eSpe-
ciaily in public.
Dear Mrs. Post: When the bride
groom is a stranger in the brides
home city and will of necessity have
few friends and relatives present,
does one still adhere to the rule of
seating the brides friends and rela-
tives on one side Of the church and
the bridegroom's on the other?
Answer-Only so many pews as
will be occupied by the bridegroom S
| family and friends are reserved for
them, the rest are occupied by the
friends of the bride. For example,
let us say that his family will oc-
| cupy no more than the three front
peWs Instead of reserving three pews
on his side, and nine on hers six
pews on either side are reserved.
The brides family then occupy the
six front pews on their own side and
the fourth, fifth and sixth on the
bridegroOm'S side.
Dear Mrs. Post: Is one supposed
to pour gravy or sauce from the
gravy boat or use ladle, and If the
ladle then why does the gravy boat
have a spout?
Answer-Because for sauce that
is very thin, it is sometimes used
without a ladle, and at such times,
poured.
Dear Mrs. Post: Is 1t permissible
to ask the church for the use of the
| Sunday school room to have our
reception? We live far from the
church and in view of the restric-
ton on car driving, we cannot ex-
pect people to drive such q distance
unnecessarily: and yet we cannot
afford the expense of giving the re-
ception at hotel.
Answer: The best plan is to dis
cuss this question: with your clergy
man. Nearly every church has a
room which can be used for the
purpose you describe.
Mrs. Post Is sorry she can NO
longer answer personal letters.
She Is glad, however, to have
many printed slips on = variety
Of subjects to offer to her readers.

Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1942-09-25

on deaf ears to this wireless fan;
he is one of few boys who sacrifices
the thrills of football and baseball,
other sports and games to work
alone in the attic on something that
meant more to him than his mother
and dad who ofttimes had to be-
come vehement in their commands
to come to dinner and go to bed.
Neighbors became quite used to
seeing Boyd come home holding an
old radio very carefully in his hands
and smiling very broadly at his sue
cess in finding another set to re-
make and get in good working
order.
Not being satisfied with tearing
up and rebuilding radios, this young
fellow built a transmitting set and
on one of his first trials sent mes
sage to his grandmother visiting
relatives in Chicago. The message
was picked up and delivered to her
and great was the rejoicing there
fore.
He is a licensed amateur radio
operator and allegedly is one of
only two Negro licensed amateur
radio operators in the state of Min
nesota.
Bright and alert, about three
months ago Boyd noticed a call
from the Federal Government for
applications for Radio Junior Re-
pairman Trainee examinations. He
took the exam and after about six
weeks of anxious waiting, was
called to school to learn even more
about wireless instruments. When
he reported for training at East
High School, Minneapolis, on Au-
gust IA, he was the only Negro
anu LllC yONIlSCoJ III Ills GLASS; L6
eight hours day required at school
necessitated Boyd giving up his
route as newsboy for the Mime
apolis Spokesman.
Another case of an avocation be-
coming a vocation because the anna
teur operator is paid while in train
ing and with the consent of his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. J. Boyd
Crawford, when his schooling is
completed he will be employable
by the Federal Government. So
now mother and dad look upon the
past four years of Boyd's life and
his tinkering with radios with much
more pride. 1t was always there,
the pride 1 mean, but they were
anxious that their son get out and
enjoy the things most boys like.
Now they say, and rightly so, he
just had a knack for it. Radio is
just in him.
