Nursery School Helpful
Working Mothers Should Select
Group With Utmost Care

efficient nursery SCHOOL, Here Is
what:
First, the teacher herself should
be woman who has had training.
not just someone who has natural
sympathy and love for youngsters.
OF course she needs to enjoy the
company of small people, but she
also requires a knowledge of how
to keep them occupied, to guide
them. tactfully away from quarrels,
to show them how to play with toys
and to patiently help their clumsy
little feet and fingers, to train them
IN habits of neatness and co-opera-
ton, to build up the confidence and
courage OF a shy or frightened
youngster and to stimulate the
child's natural imagination, powers
of reason and thinking.
II she is skilled she will study
the needs of each little individual
in her charge, she will avoid inter-
fering with play or offering too
many SUGGESTIONS She will refrain
from any harshness and giving too
many instructions, and she will
clearly realize that no rule of thumb
may be used with children. She
will laugh a lot, and make the school
hours a very happy time.
Second, the school room should
be large enough for the number of
pupils, we'll enough ventilated
warm enough and sunny. Furniture
should be tot sized and there should
be plenty Of toys and games for
rainy days The playground needs
to have sufficient amount OF outdoor
toys such as wagons, tricycles, kid
die cars, large sand box with
shovels, pals and molds, low
swings, big balls. out-sized blocks
and boxes for building, and so on.
A Well-organized nursery school has
a nurse who examines each chilo
IN the morning before the youngstel
is allowed to join the group. ANY
child who shows signs of a sore
throat, snlff1es, or other symptoms
is isolated or sent home.
The very young pupil is taught
TO hang up his coat on a hook that
he knows to be his own because il
either has his name over 1t or he
can identify it by a strip of color
painted above it Or the picture o1
a bird or animal. When he Joins
the play, which is out-of-doors ever,
fair day, he is not interfered witt
unless he is in harms way, is beins
unfair to another child or is de-
structive, idle, listless or bored.
He Is taught to wash his face
and hands before lunch, he learn.

and posture are improved through
example, tactful suggestion, anc
competition afforded by the othel
youngsters.
Further, he begins to learn hov
to get on with others, he discover
that he cannot grab Bobby's shove
because Bobby will very justly whacI
him over the head with his sans

Now, more than ever before, the
mother with small children finds
her days packed to the squeezing
point with things she wants to,
and should do. Most young women
are rallying to the call for workers
in the war effort, and many have
full-time Jobs. Unless their pre-
school-age children can be left in
the care of a responsible adult, they
should be placed in a well-run
nursery school.
Personally, I am all for the nur-
sery school, anyway, particularly for
three or four-year- who is a
lonesome little thing without play
mates.
But the mother who contemplates
nursery school for her child should
not regard 1t as just a convenient
spot where she may dump her
darling and forget him! She should
take pains in her selection of the
school beforehand, and have a
friendly talk with the teacher as
well as make an inspection, of the
school building, playground and
equipment.

Simple Routine
Essential for
Lovely Eyes
Treatment Should
Begin While One
Is Still Young
Br Patricia Lindsay

Look yourself square into your
eyes and be candid. Are your eyes
as clear and young and sparkling
as YOU would like them to be? Do
you completely disregard them so
long as they do not trouble you?
Are you so blind" rs to think that
because you are fortunate enough
not to wear glasses that your eyes
do not need care?
Every girl knows that the first
place she is going to show any sign
Of age is around her eyes. She be-
gins to worry about worry lines"
In her early 20's, but seldom does
she do anything to keep her eyes
young and sparkling. Older women
get around to dabbing on bit of
lubricating cream around the eye
area but few are consistent. Days
pass without the eyes getting any
care. And many, or so many, young
are guilty of complete negligence In
caring for the eyes. 4 Z
To keep your eyes young and SPAR
king you must bathe them each
day, exercise them and anoint them
with rich cream every night. And
do not be a "once In a while" girl;
be consistent.
For the eye-bath you may use q
horic acid solution which you can
mix freshly yourself, or any pre-
scribed eyewash. For the massage
there are special eye creams and
oils which do efficient jobs but II
you do not have one use rich.

As for exercising the eyes en-

will strengthen the muscles, improve
the circulation and relax the eyes If
they have been strained. Here are
three simple ones with which to be-

Look straight and far ahead OF

Then as far right as you can without
turning your head. Repeat 10 times.

The statement food will win the
war and write the peace" has been
said so often that we have lost sight
of the fact that this statement ap-

our Allies-and the people of the

Bringing the statement into our
