Children Play
War in Germany
Ruthless Young 'Fuehrer' Is
Leader of Games in
Munich Ruins.

MUNICH. - With no school tt
keep them busy a good part of the
day, the children are playing wal
in the sand boxes, the fields and the
bomb craters of Germany. This has
become more and more evident
even to the most casual observer.
1t is not the same old war that
children have been playing for gen.
erations. This has been brought up
to date. Now they talk about
"atomic bombs" and rockets.
These are the children who know
more about bombs than any others
in the world. They huddled in dark
ness and terror many nights as
death rained down-and that was
only two years ago.
Grown = up Germans remember
those nights with a shudder. The
children have forgotten all but the
excitement. They translate that
now into their games.
Scratch in Ruins.
A group of them were playing
their war game in the heart of
Munich's rubble-the town is As per
cent bombed out-building air raid
shelters, miniature "west walls"
tunnels for underground retreat
and ammunition storage in the
heaps of sand and bricks. 1t was
very realistic.
Scratching in the ruins they I'm

-o-.LaI x,,i+I 4hA rr,aefi1Ia Tho nn,,,
"verboten'' doctrine has not pene-
trated to the children. They do not
understand why the swastika
should be scratched off.
This gang had its own little
"Fuehrer," too, and he was the
absolute boss. He ordered the 9TH
ers around and anyone who OBJ
jected was "court-martialed" and
then the wooden guns banged"
The "Fuehrer" wasn't a German,
just as Hitler, the Austrian, wasn't.
He was a %9-year-old Estonian refu-
gee named Henric.
Henric was a willing guide. He

building there was an under
ground tunnel where "his men,
were working on a "1001 night
bomb"
Adults Coin Excuses.
Henric ordered a 7-year-old Mu-
Mich girl to sit in front of the bunker.
She was the "civilian population"
Another boy threw sand in her face.
That was supposed to be what hap
pened when a bomb hit.
A German hausfrau leaned out of
the window of a nearby house and
objected that the boys '"should take
better care of the civilian popula-
81 am throwing bombs on it just
they did," little Fritz replied.
Parents and teachers explain that
he children have nothing else to do
and they can't make them sit
around idle. There are no picture
looks or fairy tales. In the kinder
garten the teacher must draw her
tories on a blackboard.
One official of the culture minis
ry complained sharply about the
ack of books. He said there were
more than a dozen publications
with concentration camps.
Nobody reads Them" he said.
People buy them because it seems
ike a good idea to have them in
heir private libraries. But nobody
'eads them, just as it was with
Mein Kampf' and the Myth of the
9th Century (Hitler's and Rosen-
books)."

Twin Problem for Customs

kinson of Fitchburg, Mass, re-
ported a pleasant crossing. Only
two passengers were seasick. Both

Your Child From | to 6

By Betty Miles

but 0ten causes him to be resentful
instead.
When the consequences OF o
child's act can be used as punish
ment, the reasonableness of these
results is brought home to him
such as doing without toy he has
broken through carelessness.
When child insists on doing
things that are dangerous. such as
climbing where he has been for
hidden, swift, immediate punisl1-
ment that makes him realize his
parents feel strongly about his be-
havior may be not only necessary
but also desirable.
The mother who does not excited
ly punish child on impulse but
tries to think about his problem
and make plan that is reasonable
will be rewarded by her child's ap.
probation of her fairness. However,
even when loving parents get angry
and punish 6mpulsively on occasion,
they should not feel too guilty. If the
parents angry outbursts are not too
frequent, and real love and affec-
ton exist between parent and child,
the love the child knows is there win
make up for the temper. s
Careful experiments have shown
that some treatment does, and some
does not, do away with fears. A
TIME-HONORED BUT USELESS
METHOD IS IGNORING A
CHILD'S FEAR IN THE HOPE
THAT HE WILL OUTGROW IT.
Riduculing fear. in child has just
as bad, or even worse, results, for it
often drives the fear underground.
Everything possible should be done
to learn WHY and HOW fear has
come about, of course. If this Is
cleared up, sometimes half the bat
tie is over. A child usually does not
know why he is afraid. In many
cases it will not be possiAle to find
the cause of child's attitude, but
patient, quiet observation and real
thought may reveal it. Sometimes
the best parent can do is to give
unobtrusive support and comfort.
When the cause of the fear cannot
be discovered, long and painstaking
effort may be necessary before the
child is free from it.

lieves firmly in dramatic clothes
and the beauty of the moulded line

has featured in many variations.

with new twist. The fact that it
is cotton doesn't necessarily mean
that it will be any lower in price.
In this house it will range along the

These chambrays are beautifully
worked so that unless one looks
closely at the fabric glancing away
from the intricate stitching and cut
of the dress-it is hard to believe
that 1t is only a cotton"

Handkerchief linen, pure silk prints,
woven taffeta, are widely used in

bow tie that reminds one of the

spring ranges from thes filmy, soft
type of gown to the sophisticated
slim skirted model. A billoWy white
marquisette with black bownot lace
forming an apron-like design on the
front of the skirt was extremely
noteworthy. Another touch that
many women will like was the use
of viola" a lavendar color that Mr..

From Mrs. H. +. s., FredeTtcE.J
Last year a reader of our local
paper clipped little item from

gested a use for Christmas cards.
I sent my cards to this organization.
1t is the Save the Children Work

I heartily agree with the others
about the sugar situation. I have
five children and have always baked
the bread, cakes, buns, prepared
homemade ice cream in addition to
canning, preserving quantities Of
food. This year I have bought these
items because I could not get the
sugar to prepare them in the home.

high in quality and, incidentally,
costs more. I also read ex-Secretary
Ickes' comments about the sugar
situation. I wish there was some
thing I could do. but as group we

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-The out
standing collection viewed this week
to date was the Nettie Rosenstein
showing. Always her clothes have
been conversation pieces among
newswomen, but this collection far
surpassed any seen in recent years.
Release from LIS was evident, but
was shown in restrained manner
It's the figure that concerns Nettie
Rosenstein, not its camoudage with
huge bows and bunchiness.
The closures on her jackets are
interesting. On navy blue suit
she uses three rows of brass but
tons to add dash. Pure silks abound
in her collection. The dresses
which are made up of prints from
the American painter group are
especially breathtaking. Her use OF
Italian silk shantung with its lovely
sheen is very well done. Rosenstein
drapes her street dresses, has slight
ly shorter skirts than other design
ers, continues to have her evening
fashions in a somewhat bare mood.
As always, her ball gowns are the
type created expressly for making
an entrance" She injects mod
est note by having a matching shawl
accompany her pared fashions.
Flaring backs are speciality. This
season her offering is a medieval
red gabardine cloak which she has
christened the Dante cloak" which
has a hood attached. Pleats are
very much in the limelight, in both
impressed and stitched versions.
Another Rosenstein signature"
are pockets which stand up. This
same idea in other variations Is seen
in her gowns and suits. She calls
them "cornucopias.' Undoubtedly
Nettie Rosenstein ranks with the
greatest designers in the world-her
excellent collection proved it.
Omar Kiam, designer for Ben
