that would enable them to teach
this backward child successfully?
Rarely did we find any help on the
teaching job from the home.
We should not expect it. The
parents have joined forces and
paid the bills to establish and run
the schools for the sole purpose of
educating their children. Had they
felt that they could do it at home
as effectually as teachers could do
it in the schools, they would not
have built the schools and granted
the funds that sustain them. The
teacher must help the failing pupil.
The responsibility is squarely on the
school.
Alert teachers are quick to note
that a pupil is failing. The first
sign of this should be the signal
for direct personal help. How that
help is to be given depends on the
conditions in the school, but it
should be given and the adjust

WhyGrow

Weight distribution varies in dif-

girls-also college graduates-work-
ing there, her case was won.
And so Ethel Fistere's rise to for
tune, If not to fame, began. From
instructor to supervisor to studio
director to her present position as
director of the several dance studios
in this area in the chain for which
she works.
With a staff of 90 she no longer
does any of the instructing herself.
But how she still loves to dance!
Anything from the rumba to Utter
bugging. No wonder her figure is
as trim as I wish mine were!
Dancing is literally her life. II
she isn't dancing in the evenings,
she's at home working on studio
business. Which makes things easy
for an instructor. for in her enthu-
siasm Mrs. Fistere will tell you
anything you want to know about
the business.
And an exceedingly remunerative
business it is-both financially and,
we'll, spiritually, say.
Every day is blessing" she says
when she tells you about the deaf
mutes they have taught to dance.
Or the physically handicapped STU
dents, or the just plain miserably
awkward ones turned into experts.
1t is not unusual today. just as
when Ethel Fistere did so herself,
for a former student to return to
the studio as an instructor. But no
matter. how expert job applicant
IS, he Cor she) is given q thousand
hours Of training before being en-
trusted with pupil.
Ninety per cent Of the students
are adults. Today's juniors may be
hep TO the steps, but many Of yes
terday'S were not so fortunate, hence
they are today's squares. Mostly
they are businessmen and career
women who through success In their
work have found the confidence. to
correct lack they were too timid
to admit in their youth. These are
the people who comprise the bulk OF
the studios enrolment - although
every one from q 6-year-old boy to
grandmothers has taken courses
there
The best thing that could possibly
have happened to the chain, Ethel
Fistere admits candidly, was when
that dancing film star opened his
studios. The older organization had
grown sort of cocky about its pre-
eminence and the competition was
just what 1t needed to pull 1t out OF
its gold-lined rut. During the war,
business had been so booming, les
sons were rationedD
TeieviSion has no fan in Ethel
Fistere. Nights when she takes
brief case full Of reports and records
to her lovely Georgetown home, she
can (figuratively) dance through
them with the radio on full blast.
1t just doesn't work that way with
television. But the children-she
has two-like it.
She plays golf (she took lessons)
she likes TO cook although some
one else has to clean up afterward'
and she has terrific collection OF
imported Latin American dance rec
ords. Likes symphony music, too.
She used to go in for antiques-that
was when she had country home
and dabbled in Pennsylvania Dutch.
Now she collects figurines and car
flgurines and car
toons, naturally.
She says, incidentally, that the
,amba is the easiest dance to learn.
And Latin American dances In gen.
sral are still the most popular. The
a kind of rumba, Is the cur
rent craze. If you don't know 1t,
dash up and see Mrs. F. and she
will have you stepping 1t out before
you can say Arthur Murray!

The interest of parents in the
school work of the children is
necessary and where it functions,
most useful Listening to a child
read his lesson, perhaps talking over
a point in history. praising a draw

about study methods will make a
child feel that his work is important
to his father and mother and that
keeps him trying to do his best.
But parents should not be asked
to do the work for the teacher.

ELECTRIC DISH WASHER.
From r. N. S., Washington.)

From X. N. S., Washington.)
I've been wanting for some weeks
to report to you ladies about the
joys Of an electric dishwasher and
now that some one has asked,
needs must sing its praises to you
all.
First let me say that my husband
talked me into getting one, as I
didn't think the time saved would
warrant the amount of money in
vested. But now that it's here I be-
lieve I'd give up every other labor
saving device before I would the
dishwasher. You just can't imag-
inc! The dullest. most repetitious
and uninteresting job of housework
has been reduced to practically
nothing: We have the disposal, too,
and feel sure that it is much more
convenient that way, but it isn't
necessary. All you do is brush crusts,
crumbs, bones, seeds, gravy and
everything off the dishes down the
drain, put the dishes in the dish
washer, turn the button and you're
free woman!
I selected the one with the side
opening because I needed the
counter space, but the top opening
one is almost as efficient and less
expensive.
The light company here gave me
the names Of two companies who
sell, as well as install, these appli-
ances and we felt that such Sys-
tenn had obvious advantages over
buying from q department store and
selecting plumber and electrician
at random. And we have not been
disappointed.
The machines are not perfect, OF
course, and ours has broken down a
few times, but q serviceman Is al
ways here within o few hoars to
remedy the difhculty at no expense
to us.
incidentally. we wash pans in
ours. We rinse them first with one
of those little brushes the door-to-
door salesman used to give away,
and let the dishwasher do the rest.
Ours will just about accommodate
all the dishes and pans for" dinner
for our family of four.
The breakfast and lunch dishes
We do together. When we have COM
pany we do the preparation dishes
and pans while we're eating and
that leaves the kitchen fairly free
for preparing dessert and coffee.
AS I said before, I cannot speak
too highly of them. When my auto
matte washer was installed
thought heaven was here, but now,
If forced to decide between it and
the dishwasher, I'd pick the dish
washer without a moments hesita-
ton, because 1t eliminates a dreary
job three times a day, 365 days a
year.

OF course, 1t would be just perfect
In writing about the rise of Dance
Studio Director Ethel Fistere If she
herself had been a wallflower, turned
by dancing lessons into perfect
dancer who now devotes her life to
bringing the same Joy to others.
Well, consider this the perfect
story, for that is exactly the way it
happened.
Born in New York City, but an
East Orange IN. j. gal when our
story opens, Mrs. F. was 10, IN coli
lege, stout, shy-undated and un-
danced.
She took lessons and corrected all
four unfortunate circumstances tor
dancing is a wonderful reducer, too)
She majored in economics at the
New Jersey College for Women, She
wanted to sell stocks and bonds, q
glamorous and eventually reward
ing career for a smart girl. Upon
graduation, then, she took job IN
Wall Street as a stock analyst.
Family reverses during her final
year in college had forced her to go
into debt to complete her education
and her weekly paycheck was as low
as the rung of the ladder of success
upon which she stood.
Back she went to the dance studio
which had turned her from a brain
into a butterfly and got part-time
evening job as an instructor (Which
gives you an idea Of how well she
had learned her lessons there.
In short time she was earning
in three hours nightly twice what
her e-to-5 daytime toll brought her.
A change in careers seemed advis-
able. Except that to papa, dance
studio instructresses were OH par
with dance hall hostesses. Even
though it was regretably necessary
for little Ethel to be working part
time at such a sordid occupation,
for life career, never!
It took Ethel year to persuade
him differently. When he finally
toured the studio-met the other
