Left to themselves, children are
not afraid Of bombing, Andre Fon-
taine declares in Today's Woman.
But adults are! And parents at
titude about atomic attack will
be communicated to their chill
Idren.
Wisely conducted bomb drills
at school will be no more disturb
ing to children than are fire drills
unless parents exhibit an emo
tional. frightened reaction 70 the
fact that the drills are occurring.
BY doing all possible for civil de-
fense in the community, prepar-
ing a shelter in the home and
seeing that the children know all
they should about protecting
themselves and their part in the
civil defense program. parents
can keep fear of bombing from
gripping their children. Accord
ing to the author, all too many
children already have revealed
that bomb fright has disturbed
them much more than their par
ents realized.

ment house can be a dream house,
Sylvie and Robert Schuman de-
clare. An investigation of hous-
ing developments led them to the
conviction that the best house
buys in the $4,000 to $40, 900
price range are in planned hous-
ing developments.
"a development house may not
offer you individuality and iso-
lated privacy. but it will give you
and your family comfortable and
efficient living, and within GER
tain limits you can create a home
that is distinctly yours" they be-
lieve.
You can make your own street
dresses, beachwear. and even for
NAL clothes if you can merely
thread needle and sew a neat
stitch. Good Housekeeping statesl
positively in the 33-page needle
work manual included in the June
issue.
This type of simplified sewing
is, of course. the "straight-piece"
technique. and eight pages in all
are devoted to it. Straight
piece" sewing eliminates the neces-
Isity OF any patterns. 1t uses only
straight pieces of fabric, on which
you sew in a straight line. Even
the cutting of materials is done
in straight lines.
The manual also covers knit
ting. crocheting, needlepoint, en-
broidery of dresses. quilts, sweat
|ers, rugs, aprons, negligees, table
linen and play clothes. Cutting
plans and descriptions and sources
of materials are included.
