Ne,O Sewing Club
For Mothers With
Small Children
By Jean Beldire

Sewing club groups have been
planned to fill the needs of young
mothers with small children of
school or pre-school age and a
minimum amount of free time in
which to plan and make ward
robes for themselves and the
children. These mothers are
taught how to make clothing out
of anything from fathers, out
worn tuxedo to flour sacks. Big
sisters last years dress becomes
baby's first play suit. This class
meets the need for every conceiv-
able type of sewing for the home,
from draperies to dungarees. The
members of this group who wish
to bring along children of pre-
school age are extended the priv
ilege of using one of the class
rooms as a nursery with the pro-
vision that each group will inde-
pendently arrange to employ one
supervisor for every ten children.
The school is equipped with "a
complete electric kitchen and Is
air-conditioned. Children can be
taken to park within a block of
the school in fair weather. If this
is your idea of heaven. you'll find

National Art Gallery
To Open Il More
Rooms for Exhibits

The National Gallery of Art
intends to open IL more exhibi-
ton rooms by June !.
Plans to expand the display
facilities were outlined to a House
appropriations subcommittee in
hearing testimony made public
today.
1--WE need these rooms for new
works of art which are coming to
u.s." Director David E. Finley told
the subcommittee. TN fact, we
could not show another picture in
the gallery at present.
Mr.. Finley said the new rooms
are being prepared with funds do
mated to the gallery. n.
100000 Visitors.
I'm the eight years since the
gallery opened, we have had just
under 100000 yisitors-an aver
age of almost 100000 visitors a
year." he reported. THAT was a
record in the early years. Now,
the Metropolitan Museum in New
York has about the same number,
but no other museum in the world
approaches it,"
The National Museum of the
Smithsonian Institution still is an
outstanding tourist attraction, DR..
Alexander Wetmore. secretary of
the Smithsonian, reported. At
tendance for the last fiscal year
was 2,606,104 persons, he said.
Observatory Site Found.
The institution has had trouble
finding a good place for its third
1astrophysical observatory. he told
the subcommittee, but it now has
settled on Clark Mountain in Inyo
County. Calf. The other observa-
tories are at Table Mountain,
Calf, and Montezuma. Chile.
The scientists require clear air
and a minimum of rainfall for
their continuing study of the sun,
he explained.
The third observatory used to
be on Mount Brukkaros in South
west Africa, DR.. Wetmore recalled,
but there were too many dust
storms there. Then, the scientists
set up shop on Mount st. Kath-
crime in Egypt. The war chased
them away. They moved to Burro
Mountain in New Mexico, but in
creased mining and smelling near

that area too dusty.
