A Deep Suffering

l UNDERSTOOD. Even many SOL
diers on the battlefield, the Army
discovered, cannot break them
selves of this lifelong inhibition
against killing. Thus when man
kills suddenly for the first time,
and especially when he sees the
human being whose life he has
taken, the reaction is overwhelm-
ing. Then a man suffers, deeply
and terribly.
Along with the mental torment
came more humiliation -a a ride
in a patrol wagon next day with
dozen assorted lawbreakers, a wait

freedom on bail pending a hearing

"A good mother loUes her child.
A good mother keeps her child
clean"
These are the opening lines OF
the Good Mother Code" already
familiar to hundreds of Washing
ton youngsters.
And now children in four for
eign countries soon will be learn
ing their version of the code
keystone in the doll adoption"
program of the United Church
Women of Washington.
Originated is years ago by
Miss Eta Mai Russell, executive
director, the program has been
the means of introducing the
rudiments Of child care to homes
In congested and underprivileged
areas of Washington.
The plan has been copied by
communities in several states
and it's success has inspired the
churchwomen to extend 1t on an
international level.
IndoneSia, Japan, Germany
and Paraguay have been selected
for the international project.
One hundred dolls-dressed by
Washington women-are being
sent to each of these countries.
There. the doll adoption pro-

gram will be integrated into local
welfare and religious centers.
This is how the program has
been carried out in Washington: j:
Doll adoption centers have
been set UP each summer at
various churches, usually in con-
nection with the regular sum-
mer church schools. The dolls
are distributed to girls from
about 4 to II who have the
privilege of adopting" dolls If,
at the end Of a given period, they
have proved that they are good
mothers"
First, they must sign the
Good Mother Code" which
stresses the Importance of clean
illness and health.
Each day there is a formal
inspection-with the center di-
rector checking up to see that
the youngsters have needed that
part Of the code which states,
"a good mother keeps her child's
clothes clean"
Programs include talks and
demonstrations on subjects re-
lating to child care.
For instance, youngsters at the
Georgetown Center at st. Johns
Episcopal Church this summer
heard a talk by a dental hygien-
ist one morning and enjoyed a
cookie making demonstration
another day.
Sewing often is included in the
craft period, and all of the
centers have a devotional period
for religious instruction.
Finally. on the last day of
school, the girls sign papers
permitting them to adopt their
dolls.
Dolls for the project are COL
lected each year at spring doll
teas-usually held at an EN-
baSsy.
This year the Indonesian EN-
bassy was the setting of the tea,
with Nine. Sastroamidjojo, wife
Of the Ambassador. acting as
hostess.
incidentally. the doll center in
IndoneSia will be set up with
the assistance Of a former board
member Of the church women's
organization, Mrs. Glenn Riddell.
whose husband has been as
signed to that country under the
Point -Four program.
