For Women
In Politics

Women were urged to take q
more active part in politics at the
grass roots level yesterday by Miss
Margaret Hickey, public affairs
editor of a national woman's
magazine.
At the same time, she predicted
that the vote Of women and young
people viii decide this years presi-
dental contest.
Miss Hickey addressed approxi-
mately 600 career women and their
bosses attending the 18th anni-
versary breakfast Of the Credit
Women's Breakfast Clubs Of North
America at the Hotel Statler.
With "Never Underestimate
Your Citizen Power" as her topic.
the speaker expressed the opinion
that the skills and talents Of
women are not being utilized to
their fullest at the community
level.
I'VE need to do a better job Of
public relations If we are to bring
to our communities, the Nation.
and the world the leadership Of
thousands of great, though now
obscure, women who are to be
found in almost every commune

vance them to the places where
their talents can be observed. So
many fail to give the kind Of
service Of which they are capable
from lack Of scope. not from too
much"

Career women have as much Of

continued. Business people may
think they don't have time for it,
but even a little helps, she de-
clared. "You would be surprised
how a woman can exert influence
over the telephone. or can sway
votes in a chance conversation
with well-placed remark at the

WhyGrow
DID,?
By Josephine Lowmon

When a woman is IS or 20
pounds overweight she usually
knows it. However. remember
one letter which came to me. It
said, II am feet 2 inches tall
and weigh 210 pounds. have q
nice figure but my legs are little
too large" envy her that vibrant
spirit.
Then we have the other ex-
treme. Many times when measur-
ing women who have truly lovely
figures I find that they are un-
happy.
We women are critical of our
selves and think that is a won
derful thing If it isn't taken too
far. 1t leads to self Improvement.
Every woman should improve her
appearance as much as is possible
and today most defects in beauty
can be corrected or minimized.
However, after you have done all
you can toward self-improvement
forget it.
When large nose or a certain
height or large veins in the hands
or freckles ruin life for you then
you are in a bad fix. You have
missed the real excitement and
meaning of life if you measure it
in such terms. Our appearance
does have an effect on our per-
sonality but verve, gaiety, tender
ness, understanding, enthusiasm
land eagerness are even more i'm
Iportant.
| Here are few facts to remem-
Der when deciding what your fig
ure needs in the way of improve
ment.
/. Body build. This makes q
|great difference. If you have q
large bony structure you can car
ry 10 pounds or more and look as
slim as another woman who is the
same height but has a slight skele-
ton compared to yours.
2. Inheritance. Some families
are lean while some are broad.
This may be due to inherited
eating habits but it may also come
from inherited glandular setup
and build.
1t would be foolish and futile
for a woman with broad build
through the hips to attempt to
achieve the measurements of one
with a narrower bony structure.
If you would like to have my
weight and height chart send q
stamped, self-addressed envelope
with your request for leafiet No.

Having a baby is popularity sup

problem of what to do when a
couple is drifting apart. It works
very we'll in many cases and no

of children can also result in driv-

Children must be loved and be

frozen foods have given women

"And yet the growing willingness

she added. "It lacks, I feel,

In this connection. Mrs. Clark

For example, she's discovered

Biggest objection has been that

all. We had a baby-sitter several
times, and the little girl screamed
all the time we were gone, so he
refused to try 1t again.
"As a result of all this I have
refused to let him come into my
room any more. I tell him he can
put the baby out of his room. He
is acting very ugly. I love my
daughter, but I don't think a f.
year-old child should be allowed to
run the home and come between
her parents"
Neither do I, Mrs. NJ, and you
are the victim Of an ugly distortion
Of father-child love that needs to
be corrected at once: not only for
the sake of you and your husband,
but for the good Of the child.
Your husband needs a good bit of
educating and should be made to
see just what he Is doing to all
concerned. His method is as
wrong as any method could be.
For one thing, he's making a
whining, possessive, undisciplined
brat out Of his child who could
quite easily grow up into an i'm
possible adult.
I suggest you consult your phy-
sician, ostensibly about the little
girls tantrums and then tell him
the whole story. Perhaps he will
give your husband a stern dressing
down and drive some sense into his
head. Then the two of you should
send for my reading list on child
management and study the sug-
gested books together. This list
will cost you nothing but a
stamped, self-addressed envelope.
You, Mrs. NJ, should stop an
tagonizing your husband; let him
know you believe a great mistake
has been made and interest him
In some re-education. Then put
the baby where she belongs, in a
bed and room Of her own.

Three-Day Reign
By Boys State
Is Concluded
(eontinued from 49, narel

An unanticipated highlight of last
Saturday afternoons session was
the appearance before the Senate
and the House of two secretaries
in the United Nations, Miss Sylvia
Ostrich, London, England, attached
to the delegation of India, and Miss
Hilda Berger, Lima, Peru, attached
to the division of human rights.
Presented by Miles Frederick, di-
rector of the State Development De-
partment, they commended the boys
for their interest in government and
stressed to them that ''here you are
preparing to be the leaders of to-
morrow"
William J. B. Regan, a past state
commander and chairman of Ameri-
canism of the Department of Della
ware, American Legion, sponsor of
Boys State, told the boys that they
will have a lot to say about gov
ernment," urging them to continue
to keep up their interest in govern
ment affairs.
Sixty per cent of the people who
are entitled to vote do not VOTE" he
advised them. They just let the
minority rule and then they COM
plain. They let a small group in
their districts decide what to do. y
Mr.. Regan stressed, however, that
most Cf the men and women active
in politics are fundamentally clean
and honest but mentioned that in
elections the voters sometimes are
given only the choice of the lesser
of two evils.
COngratulating the boys on their
exemplary participation, he sug'
gested that they write to the Legion
officials what they liked or dislikeC
about the session to help the le-
gionnaires decide policies of future

CONVERTIBLE STOPS RED

NEW YORK - (F) - Actions
often speak louder than words -

In this case it was the action of
a convertible top being run up and

the attention of a Berlin crowd

same time. Particularly in con.
nection with dairy farming, are
there any peculiar benefits to the
employment of run out" pasture
land for sweet corn?
Decidedly so. Such an author
ity as DR.. r. G. Rothgeb of the
Department of AgronOmy, Uni
versity of Maryland, tells us
that former pasture land already
contains in rich measure the ele-
ments best suited for sweet corn
growing. It is high in nitrogen
content and organic matter and
needs only a moderate addition
of fertilizer to be all set for a
profitable sweet corn crop.
Furthermore, a lot Of eXpen-
sive mechanical equipment is
not needed to cultivate and har-
vest sweet corn as in the case
of field corn. Dairy farms gem
orally lack this equipment and,
if field corn is to be grown, either
machinery has to be purchased
or prohibitiVe labor costs added
to the operation. Sweet corn pro-
duction is a simpler process, re-
quiring neither of these "extraS.
So the chance Of a predictable
profit is greater. ..
With present supplies Of
canned corn on the short side,
it looks like a good year in which
to establish a sweet corn plant

acy cage. Although the total 1851
limited States production of pro-
/ eessed sweet corn was a fourth
greater than the short crop Of
1850, the supply was still not
sufficient to meet the demand at
prevailing rates Of consumption.

Milford chronicle., 1952-05-09

Now is the time when farmers
should take sober counsel with
themselves and decide upon the
most profitable use Of their lands
throughout 1852. In making such
plans, two main points should be
born in mind; one, how to make
sure of the greatest yield, quail
ity and net profit from the given
character of the soil; and, two,
the condition in which the crop
will leave the land for the most
favorable re-seeding.
Growing a crop involves a
great deal more than merely

Of connection with what it will
do for US tomorrow, and next
year and the year following.
Market conditions change and
with them we may wish to
change our use of the soil. So
It is well to bear in mind the
cardinal principle Of keeping
our acres healthy for any even
tuality.
To do this the rules are SIM
