ideas of her own to develop and be
capable of putting those ideas into
clear-cut, concise directions for
Mrs. America to follow.
In these days most of the food
companies, trade associations OF
food manufacturers, packers, fruit
and vegetable growers maintain
home economics departments. Their
chief responsibilities are to inter-
pref consumer needs to the manu-
facturer and to prepare material to
be used by the consumer. Training
for this work can begin in the home
where a girl learns to cook and learn
good food standards Even her four
year college course cannot give girl
enough experience on general food
preparation in addition to all the
other courses required for degree.
Any experience she can acquire In
working with food during vacations
is to her advantage. In planning
her college curriculum she should
enroll in courses offering expert
mental foods. food preparation, food
demonstration, and, If possible,
courses in public speaking and writ
ing would be advisable.
Utility companies in all the larger
cities maintain a home service de-
partment that provides a customer
service to inform consumers of the
benefits Of the product and the use
of the various appliances the COM
pany sells. They visit the consum-
ers' homes, demonstrate newly pur-
chased equipment and teach her to
use it to the best advantage The
home service person must be able to
talk before groups of people in lee
turing and demonstrating home ap-
pliances. She must keep clear. in
telligent records of her calls in order
that her company can refer to them
in studying consumer habits and
preferences. Home service people
have a wide variety of experiences,
meet all kinds of people: her work
brings her in close contact with the
consumer so she needs a pleasing
personality and good level head.
If home service work appeals to the
student home economist she should
try and pick her elective subjects
rather carefully She can use funda-
mental knowledge in equipment,
home planning, home management,
kitchen and laundry arrangement,
and lighting. A course in public
speaking wouldn't come amiss when
the time arrived for the home serv-
ice girl to put on demonstrations,
give lectures or prepare radio
scripts

When little sister follows 3-year-
old junior. your perfect gem of q
nursery will need a complete over
hauling. Until that new and larger
house becomes a reality, the two
children must occupy the same room
Naturally, as soon as sister grows
out of her own bassinet, she will
inherit juniors crib, and junior
will need a Junior or regular size
bed Of his own.
It Is possible to buy some beds
with two sets of rails, one type fol
q Junior bed, and the other for a
regular size bed 1t also is possible
to purchase bed guards that will fit
any bed, wood or metal. They are
rather clumsy but can easily be
removed and stored under the bed
Usually, family will prefer to
buy children's furniture. Psychol-
ogists agree that this is a good plan
because the pieces are reduced in
size and are better closely related
to a child's world.
You learned when doing juniors
room that it is advisable to place a
cot in as quiet corner as possible,
that chllds room should be well
ventilated and that both the cot
and play pens be kept out of drafts.
For this reason three-panel screens
often are used at the head of a
crib. In fact, a three-panel screen,
if covered with sound-proofing ma
terial and placed in front of a
window or door, will cut down street
and home noises considerably.
In rearranging the room for your
twosome, you will be wise to sepa-
rate the two children and to allo-
cate certain pieces of furniture to
each. The boy may have new
chest and this may be placed at
the head of his bed to protect him
slightly from the draft from a win

DenOsthenic DOings
By Betty Miles
How long is a minute?

HOW long is a minute!
A minute can be at least several
light years long, Mrs. Sidney Muir
ray of Silver Spring declared, when
one is thinking on ones feet" dur
ing an after-dinner speech.
Mrs. Murray, a member Of the
Speakers Forum of Washington,
first took course in public speak
ing from Instructor Frank Pat"
Patterson. She was, she confesses,
usually so upset at the prospect OF
finding something interesting to say
for l minute after dinner that her
meal went untouched. Once a per-
son is no longer unaccustomed to
public speaking. however, the sit
uation Is quiet different. Mrs. Mur-
ray found she-and other seasoned
speakers-became so enthusiastic
they wanted to keep on talking. In
fact, unless some one remembered
to bring a stopwatch, their minute
speeches showed symptoms of con-
tinuing indefinitely.
Now in its ninth year Of exist
ence, the Speakers Forum is prob
ably the Oldest speakers club in
town. The IS club members-many
of whom learned public speaking as
a business asset-have frequently
spoken on behalf of the Red Cross
and the Community Chest, and will
speak for other groups upon re-
quest. Their audience varies from
PTA's and church groups to wom-
ems clubs and teen-age gatherings.
Skilled amateurs, they are not paid
for this work.
"One of the first things a speaker
must learn" Mrs. Murray pointed
out, "and one Of the hardest, is the
skill of being natural" Timing, too,
is very important. And you don't
say ''uh" when you are at loss
for words. You simply don't say
anything. A pause, Mrs. Murray
declared, can be most effective, too.
Trained speakers. of course, are also
equipped with knowledge of prop
er breathing and proper enuncia-
ton.
In answer to our question, Mrs.
Murray named the three qualities
a speaker must have to be success
full. You must have something to
say, and believe in the things you
are saying. You must convey your
message in a pleasing manner. And
you must have self-confidence.
Speakers first visit the group or

agency whose story they intend to
tell to the public, watch it in OPP
Grafton, and become familiar with
various aspects Of its work before
writing their speeches. Mrs. MUIR
ray has spoken recently over WARL,,
WBCC and WGAY and to various
groups on behalf Of the Crusadesfcr
Children. A picture of conditions
throughout the world, shown to the
volunteers, evoked the belief in the
things you are saying" she declares
necessary.
There is quite a difference be-
tween talking into microphone
and addressing an audience direct
ly, the speaker declared, A live"
audience provides warmth and in
spiration for a speaker, Imagina-
ton has to be called into play
when the radio audience Is on the
receiving end of speech. Speeches
have to be kept constantly up to
date, too, with a morning headline
sometimes changing the lead" on
a speech prepared for that particu-
lar day. A clear picture OF the facts
is necessary, since question and
answer period follows each speech.
A homemaker today, Mrs. Muir
ray handled priorities and critical
material for the War Production
Board during the war. She is the
mother of three grown children.
Some Of the other club members
are housewives, too, with Govern
ment employees and men and wcm-
en- in the professions also numbered
among the group.
Prospective club members must be
graduates Of speaking courses, and
interest in current events is an as
set. The club itself grew out Of
the enthusiasm of the members OF
speaking class who decided to
form club and continue to increase
their speaking skill. The group
meets at Pierce Hall, Sixteenth and
Harvard streets NV, once month.
The members make speeches to each
other and criticize each others
work. Comdr. Edward Mallett Of
the Coast Guard is the clubs presi-
dent.

The life of business home econ.
omist is a busy one. with long hours

the job develops; the vacation pc.
riods usually run from two to three

needs to be blessed with good health

both men and women. She is ex-
pected to be we'll groomed, poiseo

challenging, the work is interesting

The home economist who elects

ideas, sit in on conferences, plar
display material, attend conven-

for editors and radio people, work
with Government officials and com.

original and, at the same time
practical. During her college course
if a girl thinks she would like te
venture into this field, she would be
wise to include more courses ir
English, history and art than are
usually required for most Other
home economic majors. To be able
to handle words we'll is a definite
asset in this business.
A food consultant needs to &C.
quire years of experience before SHE
is in a position to qualify for this
job. She also needs to have enough
capital to launch herself in busi.
ness, to pay for her equipment anc
carry her over the lean period while
she is establishing contacts with

for several clients at one time o.
she may concentrate on just ont
