the teacher. Larry seemed diner
ent child in school than he did al
home. He wouldn't eat his meals at
home nor go to bed without fuss,
but at school he just went along
with the others and did as he was
supposed to.
"He even asked-mind you

Being good nursery school
teacher is not an easy job, but in
many ways it's easier than being
a mother. The teacher devotes her
full time and attention TO the chill
dren all the time she is on the job.
She's not trying to get the house
work done or entertain a guest or
get dinner.
Then when the school day is over,
she can stop having children about
and do something else.
And let me tell you a secret.
Those nursery school teachers who
have little children of their own
often have as much trouble with
them at home as any other mother.
At home they are mothers with all
the headaches that go along with
motherhood.
So when you are selecting a nur-
sery school get a good idea of the
kind of person who is going to help
you develop the traits you want to
see in your child.

All these things are important,
but the teacher who will handle
your child is the most important of
all.
Managing a group of little chill
dren is a skilled job. The teacher
who does it needs first to have an
easy, pleasant personality. She
needs to be calm, happy and we'll
adjusted person. But over and above
her personality she needs training.
She needs background knowledge
of how young children grow and de-
velop, of what can be expected at
various ages and in various circum-
stances.
She needs to know when to let a
child alone and when to exert a
little pressure. Such a person can
help a timid child feel comfortable
in the group. She can give an ag-
gressive child enough satisfaction
in acceptable behavior so that he
doesn't have to spend his time nag
ging at the others.
A good nursery school teacher
wants the cooperation of the child's
parents. She learns from them what
the child likes and dislikes, how he
ticks at home. With this informa-
ton she understands him better at
school. Sometimes by talking out
problems both teacher and parents
are helped in their understanding
of the child
Sometimes a parent, especially
the mother, feels a little jealous of

In Developing Guided Missile Ships

WASHINGTON, R-Secretary

a fleet of guided missile ships is
progressing rapidly"
He told a House Appropriations
subcommittee in testimony made
public today the fleet soon will
have seven warcraft capable of
firing guided missiles. In addi-
ton, the new weapons are being
introduced into several fleet
carriers and cruisers" Wilson
said.
Adm. Arthur W. Radford, the
chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, testified at the same time
real progress is being made" in
the broad field of guided missiles.
Radford also told the subcom-
mittee sin the past three or four
years, in my judgment, our
strength has increased more than
theirs (the SovietsO due primarily
to the tremendous development
of our jet aircraft and our weap-
