Our Sense
of HunOr
Bv AnqeIo Pafri

We are proud of the American
sense of humor. We make laugh
ter an imperative in our daily
lives. The book we read must
make us laugh; the picture we
see must make them roll in the
aisles." If catastrophe strikes, the
victim must meet it with smile
and humorous story. We just
must have a sense of humor. the
sixth sense for us Americans.
The children are trained to
share this idea. They are furnished
with joke books and comic books.
Why these books are called comics
Is beyond me, but that's what they
are and they are supposed above
all else to be the inspiration of
laughter. They don't make me
laugh, but perhaps lack this es-
sential sense. That could be-"
People can be judged by the
things they laugh at. Their char
acters express themselves directly
In their reaction to things that
happen about them. to the plays
they see and the books they read.
When they laugh in the wrong
places we know they are lacking
in understanding, in discrimina-
ton and judgment-if not good
sense.
Children attend movies that
they do not understand and they
laugh in the wrong places-at
murder, for example. They cheer
when the gangster shoots his hap
less victim. They don't know why
they laugh, nor why they cheer.
We train children to laugh at
the wrong things. They laugh at
a picture that shows maltreatment
of a feeble-minded person, of
weak and helpless character. They
laugh at the story of an aged per-
son falling, of a silly woman ask
ing a foolish question and getting
a still sillier rely. Because these
jokes are dignif1ed by publication
and exhibition on the stage, the
screen, the billboardS, advertise
ments and the comics, they take
them as standards and follow
them.
Therefore, we have children
committing serious breaches of
misunderstanding a companion.
binding one to a tree and leaving
him to the mosquitoes, tripping
up an elderly person, doing the
funny things that brought cheers
and laughter in their wake in the
movies, the comic and joke books.
Laughter is a tonic to the mind
and body. True. But the tonic
quality depends upon the cause
of the laughter. What is your
child laughing at? 1t is important
to know because a child loves to
cause people to laugh with him,
to be the center of praise and
applause. He may try his hand
at the game he has enjoyed so
much. Be careful of it.

WhyGrow
Old?
Bv Josebhine Lowman

Have you ever had a jumpy
feeling when talking to some one;
a feeling that the other person is
not really listening to you, but is
sitting on the edge of his chair,
waiting to spring forth with some
remark or story of his own, the
minute you close your mouth?
OF course, you have met per-
sons you found extremely charm
ing and whom you always are de-
lighted to see? Have you ever
realized that on one thing which
makes them 50 likeable is the un-
divided attention given you in
conversation?
There is nothing which makes
person so attractive to us as
complete attention and interest
and appreciation of what we are
trying to say. It makes us feel
interesting rather than boring,
and gives special significance to
our ideas. We think, We'll, If
such an interesting person finds
me interesting, I must be more
interesting than I thought"
The funny thing about it is that
the person who gives us this kind
of compliment is usually an in
teresting person, because he or
she is truly interested in people
and has learned to derive infor-
nation, humor, inspiration and
human interest, from all people
and from all conversation.
Synthetic interest will not make
you charming or popular, so it
might be we'll to attack the prob
lem from another angle, by re-
membering that every human
being is a surprise package and
is exciting to explore.
In the most unexpected places
we find odd bits of information,
talents we never suspected. dry
wit, ambition, heroic tendencies,
sensitive and beautiful or rugged
and realistic feeling, and new phi
losophieS and Slants on life!
In other words, there is nothing
so exciting as a person. and if we
can recognize this fact deep within
ourselves, we will have tapped a
great source of fun and strength,
tolerance and inspiration.
This may be difficult to do at
first, and you may not be able to
do it sincerely without practice,
but this is one of the things you
will be asked to grade yourself on
daily on the chart for Eight
Weeks to Popularity" which I am
presenting this week. One of the
questions will behave you
turned the spotlight away from
yourself today and given undi-
vided and. sympathetic attention
to the conversation of those with
whom you came in contact?"

Capital Careers

mean girl, even when she was in
college. Phi Beta Kappa at the
University of Arkansas, no less.
She majored in journalism (edited
the twice-weekly school paper
and music. Plays pretty piano.
With her command of Spanish
and German, she headed for
Washington and a career in the
Foreign Service.
She actually did get a job in the
State Department, but when peo-
pie kept telling her. about the
awful conditions abroad and the
awful things that could happen
over there to a 20-year-old miss

she got scared-she says. ANY,
way. she swapped the foreign
service for a publicity job, still
here. She wouldn't have gone
home in defeat for anything. Be-
sides, she loves Washington as few
natives ever admit to loving it.
She soon gave up the publicity
job in favor of a writing stint at
WWDC which led to her writer
producer status at WINK. She
can go home now-for a visit
because the mountain maiden has
certainly conquered the big city
in fine style. Being program di-
rector, you know. means Lynn just
about runs the whole station. She
plans the programing, hires and
fires, even handles the publicity
and sees that the front door is
locked at night, since she is usual
ly the last one to leave.
Lynn has what sounds like a
Southern accent but which is actu-
ally, she insists, an Ozark twang.
The most deceptive thing about
her, however, is her name. People
keep thinking she's a man and
refusing to believe she's she. But
she hasn't been called Lynnette
since she left Arkansas and any
way. it's about time people got
used to the idea that women can
be radio station program drec-
tors. too.
Lynn has an apartment here,
just big enough to allow her to
collect demi tasse cups. She
doesn't spend much time in it.

New York for the shows. attend

seemed the most desir-
GUS state she could achieve.
I'll be married in a week, she

the job, her witticisms about "a

Or perhaps you like to broil
giant African lobster tails and

Frog legs, imported from Cuba,

here from Labrador.
Fresh Boston scrod, and smelt,
for pan frying, are other ideas.
If you, like the Greeks and Ital-

has them. Personally, we'd pre-
fer a good swordfish steak to
squid. but then each man to his
own taste.
SPEAKING OF THE GREEKS,
they always have a word for
good food. And Variety Sales Co.,

PATCH QUILT?
(From, Mrs. J. M. c., WashingtonD
The patch quilt was first made
to keep us warm, 1t still does.
When older people like to remi-
nisce, what is better than the
family scrap quilt?
We make our bed as our daily
round of work. We see those
delicate little prints, baby's first
colored dresses. We say, are they
not beautiful?
We see the print with arrows in
it, Sonny-boy's jacket.
Twins were born in our home;
in two years one had passed away,
the twin-quilt was soon MADE,
showing all the dresses the two
had alike, little dots. little vines,
little roses, dreams of the twins.
One quilt, long standing. was
dotted with blue and white. The
polka-dot had on when met my
husband, so years ago. Bought,
readymade dresses were uncom-
mon at that time.
Last but not least, Is the
applique-quilt, the most modern,
showing beauty as well as flne
workmanship, seen in the better
home of the city.

group in Washington that does
quilting to order? Your help IN

appreciated.

II X
WIRE MESH DRESS FORM
(From Mrs. M. c., Mount RainierJ
In answer to Mrs. G. c. R.,
Chevy Chase, regarding the wire
mesh dress form. I purchased one
recently in time for my daughters
wedding and made her gown, her
attendants and another daugh-
ter's and my own, with its great
help. The sizes ranged from a
80 to a 40. After the form was
carefully fitted (easy after a little
practice) I made the dresses COM
pletely, and had absolutely no
alterations to make at the last
minute. The form adjusts to the
exact height, also. 1t is very
sturdy and would take very hard
crush to change its shape, as it is
rigidly reinforced by cross-bars
after fitting. Mine gets little
chance for storage but it is quick
ly unassembled and if placed in a
cardboard carton large enough to
contain the two halves fitted
loosely together, should retain the
identical shape when set up for
use again.
