COLLEGE AT 40.

mrs. H. J. M, AleEdndriG.)
I have been in the Wash
ington area for just a short
time; however, I have thorough
ly enjoyed your column. / have
never written a letter such as
this before, but recently I saw
two requests for advice on re-
turning to college. Since I am
in the mid-30s. I don't feel that
40 is old. In fact, I don't feel
that one is "too old" to do
anything that one really wants
to do. But perhaps the expert
ence of some "so-called older"
friends would be helpful to those
ladies.
One friend, whose husband
passed on while her daughter
was in high school, went back
to college after her daughter
had finished her college work
and was serving with the
WAVES during the war years.
Most outstanding of all is
Mrs. R., the wife of Prof. r.,
who was head of his depart
ment, and the mother of five
sons. attended two years Of
high school and the four un-
dergraduate years Of college
with the youngest son and
worked with another of her
sons in one of the large chem
ical companies before I went
into the Navy; a third son is
now a member of the faculty
of the college at home. This
lovable mother has been active
with her husband in college,
church and community activi-
ties. She received her bachelors
degree at the age of 10. return
ing to college after her family
was grown up. r
After serving four years with
the WAVES Cboth as enlisted
and officer), I also returned to
college to do graduate work and
found a mixed group Of younger
and so-called older people on
the campus. No one thought Of
age.
While I am writing, may I
take this opportunity to assure
some of the mothers Of girls
who would like to enter the Navy
or one of the other services that
I cannot think of any reason
for a mother of any well-ad-
justed, intelligent girl to object.
mrs. NJ. L. B., Washington
Mrs. T. C. NJ, Arlington: I
can't see why it would be "hope-
less" to finish college at 40.
On the contrary, for one who
exhibits so much enthusiasm
and lively interest in learning
new things as you do. I should
say it would be a shame not to
further your education, now that
your home responsibilities have
lessened. Whether you use a
degree for practical purposes or
not, the subjects you study will
open many new areas OF interest
for you.
I believe you would feel more

PLAYING AT MEALS?
(Mrs. !. S. s., Washington

th5Cs ~ NJ ", w WofsIkStO"
What does one do with two
children, a 21a-year-old and
a 4l2-year-old. who come to
the table at meal time for the
sole purpose of playing?
I have tried everything I can
think of. have given them
80 minutes and then removed
the food from the table, forcing
them to wait for the next meal:
I have deprived them Of treats
and play time. / have done
everything I can think of and
the habit persists. All punish
ments have been effective for
a meal or two and then it starts
all over again.
Frankly, it is not the guam
tity Of food that they eat that
bothers be, but the incessant
fooling around. Hardly a meal
goes Dy CnaC a glass OF milk
isn't spilled or a dish full of
food isn't smashed to the floor.
Nothing bothers the children,
but my husband and I will end
up ulcer victims if something
isn't done. I doubt if all of
this is just because they aren't
hungry. because during the
preparation Of the meal they
constantly ask for such things
as bread, milk and fruit. But
the minute they reach the table
all thought of eating leaves and
they laugh and play. What
to do?

POISON IVY.

mrs. P. B. X, Washington
Mrs. r. w., Washington: To
get rid Of poison ivy use a salt
solution applied generously all
over the plants. A watering can
would be easiest probably. so
you need not get too near. Rock
salt (ice cream salt as it is
sometimes called) can be OBJ
tanned at hardware or builders
supply stores and is cheaper
than regular salt. Apply sew
eral times, if necessary. but the
plants will usually wither and
die away soon. Note: Salt solu-
ton is also good to apply care
fully along walks, driveways and
fences to keep grass from grow
ing there. Best to dig a little
first and then pour q thin
stream of salt water in. Saves
work clipping grass. OF course,
don't let any solution spray
onto shrubs or grass that you
don't want to kill.

PLASTIC CAR COVER.

fMfS. L.. A., WGSna1gtOnJ
About a week ago there was
an inquiry in this column about
the advantages of plastic auto
mobile cover. I have lost that
copy Of The Star, but anyway
here are my experiences.
Last summer / purchased a
new car and as we spend all
our week ends at a beach and
have no garage at our cottage
there. / wanted to get some kind
Of a cover to protect it from
the weather and sap from the
trees. I purchased a plastic
cover and it is wonderful.
It is light and can be put on
by one person and it certainly
protected the finish of my car.
My neighbors had trouble after
a heavy downpour of rain in
getting their cars started but
the cover kept mine perfectly
dry.
The heavy waterproof canvas
kind, however, takes two people
to put it on and it seems almost
impossible to keep them clean.
