Paper Collections
Started al Schools

Paper collections in The Evening
Star-PTA Salvage campaign were
started today on full schedule with
the dealers trucks visiting every
school in the first district. Early
reports indicate that the results
will be encouraging.
The need for wastepaper Is even
more urgent now than during the
war. Shortage of building mate
rials' has resulted In the speed UP
of q process for converting waste
paper into materials used in home
construction for partitions and wall
liners.
The demand for boxboard and
other packaging materials Is at a
high, level, absorbing large quanti-
ties of pulpwood, normally used to
make paper for newspapers, maya
zines, wrapping paper and station

Collections tomorrow in the Sec
ond district together with the two

Why Grow Old?
By Josephine Lovman n

Many more women than we real
lie have successful businesses which
they carry on in their own homes.
Some Of these little businesses grew
out of the wish for self-expression,
others were the result Of a natural
interest in some activity which, sur
prisingly, proved to be commercial,
while still more are the result of
some superior homemade product
which found a market because of
word OF mouth advertising. Many
OF these women were literally forced
into q career because Of the en-
treaties of their friends, and friends
Of friends and so forth.
Then there are others who de-
liberately started out to develop q
business at home after weighing
their own capabilities and the avail
able markets. Most women who
have been successful find the money
they make well worth their effort,
especially because they are doing
things they love to do anyway. Most
Of us like best to do the things we
do well and you won't find a more
enthusiastic group than women
with businesses in their own homes.
Today, with living costs rising,
most homes could profit by the extra
margin which the mother
or wife might bring in. However,
many women cannot leave their
homes to go into the business world
because they must keep an eye on
small children and wish to have
their households run smoothly, with
good meals on time. For these, the
home career is especially attractive.
Pages and pages could be filled by
the success stories Of these home

Find Child?S Values
By angelo Patri

One Of the most difficult points
in the technique of teaching for
parent or teacher to grasp, is the
fact that a learner must be met on
the level of his values. Every child
from infancy onward has his set
Of values. They shift as he grows,
but the training he accepts is the
training that takes his set of values
as basic, important before all else.
A baby values his mothers pres
ence, her care, her love, above all
else and his training must proceed
on that level. The boy of 9 has
values all his own, play and the
associations of play, home care and
its associations, his physical COM
fort foremost. ANY course Of train
ing that does not accept his values
as the starting point will make lit
tie headway and the going will be
rough. All the way through school,
high school and college, this holds
true.
Within each group the indi-
vidual's values will differ from those
of his fellows, but not too much
for practical work to 60 forward on
the basis Of group interest. Stu
dents are interested in things that
have value for them and good teach
ing, successful teaching, takes those
values, those interests into account
and uses them for the healthy
growth of the student.
Many home and school failures
are caused by placing adult values
and interests in the place Of the
Ichildren's own. The shoe will not

fit and the time used in trying
to fit 1t is wasted, and growth is
wasted, and good will. Many a
mother has gone down fighting the
noise and disorder and appetite
of her 9-year-old son. Many a good
son has bitter memories of his en-
battled boyhood because his mother
tried to put her interests and values
for neatness, good manners and SEN
sible living upon the growing lad.
Many a father has come to grief
because, in his great affection for
his son, he tried to put his own
values into the life of his immature
son, tried to give him his personal
values, his n1atured interests when
the boy was in a stage Of growth
tht made him blind and deaf to
what his father was offering him.
. Many a fine teacher has failed
with bright pupils because he tried
to pour into their heads (not their
minds because they were closed to
him) his own set Of values in study
and work. Perhaps he loved ancient
history, or ancient literature, or
mathematics, and did his best to
pass them over intact to this f1edg-
ling. The teacher failed and the
student failed because they did not
meet on the level Of the students
values.
The pupils level Of growth, his
values, his interests, call this what
you will, Is the place Of beginning
and the good teacher can go ahead
from there to lead the pupil almost
anywhere he chooses.

Dorothy Dix Says

Al1swer-Well, it certainly needs
a girl who Is alert and also of q
suspicious disposition to deal with
the philandering married man who
tells every girl he meets that she
is the first and only one, and that
he has never loved before.
In the olden days, when husbands
were more domesticated than they
are now, married men were easily
spotted at sight by their having a
settled and often a harried and hen
pecked look, and by their wearing
soberer attire than the gay young
bucks. But now, when even grandpa
has gone sporty in Klassy Kollese
Kut Klothes and taken to dancing
the rhumba, the poor girl has no
clue as to whether q wolf has q
mate or not somewhere at home.
So, perhaps, this QUESTIONABLE will
be valuable in enabling girls to SET
tie the matrimonial status Of 4

Dear Miss Dix: When q girl meets
an attractive man, she would natu-
rally like to know whether he Is
married or not. But 1t seems a little
rugged to come out f1at-footed and
ask him what about his entangle-
ments, If any. So I have devised a
series Of questions that turn the
trick
I artlessly inquire: What will
your wife say to that?" Or, Your
wife might object" Or: Your wife
has something to say about that"
To which the man before he thinks,
Is pretty sure to reply: "Oh, she
won't care" Or, "She won't know
it," Or: "She needn't find out" if
he Is married. Otherwise he will
say: I'm not married" which may,
or may not, be the truth. But usual
ly the philandering husband gives
himself away by answering the first
question, and it gives girl the
chance to take him, or leave him,
as she sees fit.

Epicures Follow Tradition
By the Chef

The epicurean world, in its fond
ness for cheeses, Is only following q
pattern set by the peasants and
herdsmen of long ago, when bread
and cheese were practically an en-
tire diet. But the epicures have the
advantage, in that they are able to
pick and choose the best cheeses
and suit them to any menu or occa-
sion.
On the past two Mondays we dis
cussed the origin of Roquefort,
Camembert and Liederkranz. Let's
browse bit further today and next
week.
BRICK CHEESE is strictly an
American product. 1t Is supposed to
have acquired its name from the
shape in which it is nodded or from
the bricks used in pressing down the
curds. 1t has a strong, sweetish
taste, somewhat like Emmentaler,
and an aroma that family resembles
Limburg. The cheese is rather elas-
tic in texture and has holes in it..
like the well known Swiss" Most
Of the brick cheese produced is
made in Wisconsin.
CACIOVALLO CHEESE is made of
cows milk and originated in Italy
several centuries ago. Literally, its
name means horse cheese" and 1t is
said to be called this because it was
made first in the region of Mount
Cavallo. Another legend has it that
the imprint of a horses head ap-
peared on each piece of cheese put
out by the original maker. Some
times this cheese is eaten fresh, but
usually is kept for months and then
grated and used in soups, macaroni
and other special foods. Before the
war we imported a good deal of this
cheese and made quite bit here in
this country as we'll.
CHEDDAR CHEESE is probably
the best known and most universally
used cheese here in the United
States, as 1t Is the basis on which
all of our so-called American" OF
rat" cheese is made. It gets Its
! name from the village of Cheddar
Evening star., 1946-04-01

England, where 1t first was made,
many, many years ago. It was being
made in the United States Is early
as 1790-and we even exported some
at that time. young" Cheddar, aged
only three or four months Is mild in
flavor; the older product, which has
ripened for one or two years, has .
sharper tangy taste.
In the East, we usually ask for
American" cheese, when We want
cheddar; in California, one demands
Jack" or Monterey" cheese! Ched-
dar is made in many sizes and
shapes with distinguishing names
among them Long Horns, Daisies,
Twins, Flats, Cheddars and Exports.
There is no need to tell you how to
use Cheddar cheese - everyone
knows the wide scope to which 1t
may be put in cookery and for eating
out of the hand.

I try to keep him outside during the

Then I give him his bath just be
fore he goes to bed, which helps him
feel relaxed and sleepy. After doing
this, put him to bed and tell him
you will not be back. Let him cry
1t out. It won't take more than a
nigst or two until he realizes that
you mean it. I would, by all means

CURBING TOO HELPFUL GUEST.
(From Mrs. J. p, Wdshtnoton.)
To Mrs. S. M, your letter on how
to curb too-helpful guests reminded
me Of friend Of mine who handled
the situation very effectively. When
guests insisted upon helping with
the dishes, she would refuse by say
ing that her husband always helped
her later in the evening and that
they always enjoyed the time TO-
gether. This answer relieved the
guests Of any further responsibility.
No one is ever cruel enough to de-
prive them Of this companionship.
I often wondered If her husband
really did help later, but 1t was a
good answer which never failed to
reassure the conscientious guest! =!
We have found that rinsing and
stacking the plates in the kitchen
while the husband serves dessert and
coffee from a serving table or tea
cart beside the table. makes the
dishes easier to 60 back to later
in the evening. hope this ap-
proach may be useful to you.
