Even Patches
Can Be Fun

Small boys in the creeper stage
often wear out their clothes long
before they outgrow them. Often
patching is necessary, especially
at the knees.
Local sewing center experts
point out that patches can be dec
orative as well as functional. For
instance, why not make two gay
drums for knee patches on todd
ler's overalls?
Just to make the constant fall
ing easier on the youngster, pad
ded patches are recommended.
Here's the technique for making
the drums: Draw pattern on brown
paper. Cut out two drums, leaving
a full inch seam allowance all
around. Fold a piece of flannel or
old sheeting to make several lay
ers, and cut to the pattern of the
drum, leaving no seam allowance.
Use bias tape for the rims of the
drums. Stitch rick-rack in crisis
cross designs on the drums as dec
orations and to hold the quilting
in place.
Basic in place on the knees of
the overalls. Using your automatic
swing-needle m C h me, work
around the outline of the drum,
using a narrow satin stitch. Trim
away excess fabric close to the line
of stitching.

Safety Record Of Dela-
IUare National Guard
Excellent
CONTINUED from first page)


THE Councils assistance is in
the form of advice ON how best to
do things safely, and where to
watch out for accidents, and also
in the form of educational materi
ais which help to remind our meu
Of the safety instructions they have
received.
Before the Delaware National
Guard leaves for its annual en-
campment each summer or for any
mass movement, a safety meeting
of key officers is held. Many di-
verse subjects are covered, includ-
ing the proper loading of vehicles,
hazards of the road, and the use of
safety belts on troop-carrying
trucks.
Our men are instructed in beach
safety. including the use of the
buddy system for swimming, to
help prevent accidents during their
off-duty hours at summer encamp-
ment.
They are also instructed in the
safety in the use of gasoline-and
al z I'LL OSICQ W olAA Nddt 5CAOuo
practices in using gasoline for our
trucks, generators and stoves.
Similarly, where we string tele-
phone lines or use high voltage in
.electronic equipment, our men are
instructed in the safe ways of do
ing things aid taught to avoid I'M
safe procedures.
"In gunnery, we teach the men
to assume that every gun is loaded
until it has been demonstrated to
be empty, and on the artillery
range we make safety test of the
firing mechanism before the crew
goes on a gun. Similarly, safety
precautions are taken for the pro-
lection of beach strollers, and of
vessels which might enter the fir
ing range.
I'm these ami other activities,
the Delaware National Guard has.
through the years. enjoyed an ex-
cellent safety record. and we at
tribute this record largely to as
siiuous use of the advice and ma
terials we obtain from the Delaware
Safety Cornell
Il am glad to have this oppor-
tunity, during the Councils mem
tership dr. e. publicly to thank
the Safety Council for the help il:
has given and continues to give tc

would happen on job with late
hours.
2. 1t is not clever to f1irt with
Office workers or to make dates
with them before you get acquaint-
ed with them.
3. If you are asked to work
late, be sure that others besides
your superior will be on hand il
your office is in a lonely spot or
in a building that closes early.
A. Give your job up if you must
date your boss to keep it, espe-
cially if he is a married man.
5. Be friendly and helpful to
your co-workers. Try to feel that
you are ''in" without becoming an
office gossip, trading tid-bits of
information for friendships.
6. If you work in a factory or
other penned-up place he sure that
you get enough recreation and
fresh air on your time off.
z. Wear dignified clothes. Avoid
plunging neckliHes, too-revealing
sweaters and too. sheer dresses.
6. Avoid burning the candle at
both ends. Try to limit your dates
during the week and to get home
early on the weekday nights you
do date.
8. Beware of the office party,
when men co-workers are likely
to become overly-enthusiastic If
you must attend one, make your
appearance brief and leave if the
party looks like it is getting
rough
10. Keep~your parents informed
if you must work late or plan to
make a stop with a co-worker be-
fore going home.
H. Dad or older brother should
be called whenever you feel it is
too late to go home alone or get in
a situation that doesn't appeal to
you.
IL. When looking for a job it is
best not 10 enter a deserted look
ing building alone. And if it is the
place where you would work, If
you got the job, it's best not to
pursue it.
Is. When you do take a job
discuss all details of it with your
parents-the work, time off. hours
and personnel If the interviewer
has made any strange remarks
that you do not understand, dis
cuss them with the family.
IA. You don't need to adapt your
self to gum-chewing, bawdy joke
telling sessions, but it's a good
idea to be friendly with the girls
with whom you work and let them
know you like them, if you do.
Is. If you like the job and the
boss likes you. put your oar in
for part-time work at some future
vacation period. They'd probably
prefer to have someone who has
been trained for short periods.

Rich Stake Races
At Ocean Downs

Messenger Stake The Nibble Han
over colt, owned by Hazel rubbing
of Ballston, n. Y, scored IL wins,
9 seconds and 3 thirds in 26 starts
last season, winning more than
$4,000.
Queens Knight, property of the
Gray Brothers and George Reed of
East Providence, r. l., won more
than $4,000 last year, and last
week won his first start of 1856
at Laurel Raceway in a blistering
2:04 1/5.
Knight Patrol is the current
sophomore star of the famous Del
Miller Stable, which has produced
such Little Brown jug winners as
Dudley Hanover, Tar Heel and
Meadow Rice in the past. Knight
Patrol finished second to worlds
champion Belle Acton in 2:04 1/5
in the $500 Vic Fleming Memorial
Pace at Rosecroft recently, and has
triumphed in 2:03 Us at Roosevelt
Raeeway this season. Last year he
won the $4,000 William E. Miller
Memorial classic for two year-oldS
at ROsecroft.
Other outstanding nominees for
the rich stake at Ocean Downs
Raceway are Susan York, owned
by ]. NJ Davis of Clayton, Del, and
driven by Tommy Walters; Adios
Volo, a recent winner at Laurel
from the famed Johnny Simpson
stable; and the Wendell Wathen
stables promising Spring Special

pervision. Some provision needs to
be made for them during the hours
the house is empty. Again, maybe
camp is the answer. But there is
another very important consider
alton for the children of a work
ing mother. A mother with an
out-of-the-house job sees less of
her children than the full-time
mother. = summer holiday with
the whole family gives both chill
dren and parents a real feeling of
togetherness they sometimes lack
in the hustle and hustle of heavy
daily schedules. A few weeks or
maybe even a whole month spent
at the beach, camping in the noun
tains or in a motel near lake
with Nom and Dad may mean
much more to children of work
ing mother than a separate vaca-
ton for the children at even the
most ideal camp.
On the other hand for the mo-
Their who is at home all day every
day with her children a little va
cation from each other is often
good for both.
Many camp directors feel that
child should be at least seven
before he is ready for camp. How
ever, there are few kindergarten
camps for younger children. For
the homebound mother of two or
5-year-olds, a month without the
children might rejuvenate her and
make her a much better mother
for the coming year.

range for wholesome outdoor ac-
tivities during the long summer
holiday. Camp for city youngsters
is often the answer. But if you live
in small place or in the suburbs
