Stressing Importance Of a
good scholastic record in the
approval Of applications for
educational loans, Robert Lee
O'Brien, jr., senior vice presi-
dent of Union Trust Co., de-
clared:
Scholarships Inadequate
Many good students are able
to obtain scholarships, Mr..
O'Brien acknowledged. but even
those amounting to $1,000 or
$500 fall far short Of the
yearly expense of many COL
legeS now, particularly the
prestige Eastern institutions.
Bank officials believe that
many people around Washing
ton with exceptionally able
children would like to send
them to top-ranking colleges
that are private institutions
with no taxpayer support, and
relatively expensive.
Under the banks plan, the
student must maintain his
scholarship in order for the
financing to continue. If he
should fail in his classwork, the
loan would be terminated.
Relatively few banks over the
country have specific loan
plans for education, bank Off
cials believe, although the Ma
tional Defense Act student loan
program that began in 1859
has stimulated a growing num-
Der Of State and private lend
ing programs. The Federal pro-
gram lends directly to students
through participating colleges,
has a $4,000 maximum, and
has averaged about $500 per
student.
The plan is directed at I'M
dergraduate, rather than grad
uate work, but conceivably in
the case of a promising student
the financing might continue
into graduate school. There
are many scholarships avail
able In the graduate field, how
ever.

Weighing the alternatives, ]
would urge your boy to enter
the accelerated class. Since he
has already been placed there,
it would be difficult to reverse
the decision now without ad-
hitting that intelligence must
be stifled. Don't give in to the
unthinking crowd that con-
siders brains a liability. OF
course, it may be that the
others are jealous. Whatever
the reason, I would like to
see your boy brave it out, and
I am confident he will win

Question; Our 12-year-old
daughter is a gifted child, or
so we have been informed. We
feel OUR responsibilities very
deeply. She takes French les
sons and is a Girl Scout. She
reads necessarily on all sub
jectS. She also bakes and sews
at home, but we feel she should
have a chance at more cultural
subjects. We would like your
advice on skipping a grade.
Would this be Of value to her?
Answer: Here we have an
other point of view on what
TO do with a gifted child. Just
as I do not believe in holding
a youngster back, so I do not
think it advisable to push too
hard. Why give your daughter
extra work at this time? She
is doing well in school. and
does outside work. Her extra
curricular program Of Girl
Scouting, French lessons and
domestic chores should keep
her busy and happy. Unless
she asks for additional activ-
tiles, I would let well enough
alone.
AS for skipping, that raises
still another issue. I have
reached the conclusion that
skipping is not the solution fol

Dear DR.. Mason:
Both the school counselor
and Patty's teacher agree with
us that Patty is not working I'D

counselor says that her 10 is
over 100. He also says her sixth
grade work could be greatly
improved if she would only try.
What can we do?
Mr.. M. Mon, Sarasota, Fla.
Patty's Acknowledgement is
probably due to a lack Of skill
in one Of the fundamentals.

people VINO are really SERIOUS
about higher education. Stu

third Of their high school or

Representing a modification
of the revolving credit plan
used in retail business, the new
educational loan plan Of Union
Trust is designed especially for
parents unable to get other
types of loans. Included in the
cost of the loan will be a fee
for insurance.
First Time in d. C.
The special educational loan
program, which is to be an
nounced formally soon, has not
been offered in Washington be-
fore, but a number of banks
have adopted it in other cities,
including New York City. Vari-
GUS plans for spreading the ris-
ing costs Of education are
available at private schools and
colleges but generally do not
extend beyond the students
tenure.
Other Washington banks
have made regular loans for
educational purposes for many
years, but not under a formal
plan designed especially for
this purpose.
Ordinary loans for education
generally have been limited to
between IL and "a months at
rates established according to
the credit rating Of the Dor
Under the special plan of
Union Trust Co., the bank
would commit itself to furnish
up to $4,000 for the education
of a student.
Funds would be drawn upon
as needed. The parents would
sign a note and start repay
ments on a monthly schedule
as soon as the first funds were
withdrawn. Interest would be
charged on the unpaid balance.

emotional development. You
can't lop off a year from a
child'S life. DR.. Robert Kelly,
supervisor of gifted education
for the New York State Edu-
cation Department, recon-
mends that the superior child
get an enriched program, but
be permitted to remain in his
or her own grade. This view
point is also held by DR.. Cyril
w. Woolcock, chairman Of the
Education Council of the Sands
Point IN. " Country Day
School for gifted children. I
agree with these prominent
authorities.
Question: I have an 11-year-
old son in the sixth grade. The
principal has asked me to con-
slider having him repeat the
grade. My son was an A stu
dent in the first, second and
third grades. He then dropped
to a c in the fourth, and got a
B in the fifth. This year he
has dropped to a D. There
were So children in his class
this year and next term the
sixth grade will have the same
number. My husband feels he
should go on and repeat in a
higher grade if necessary, but
l feel If he must repeat at some
time it would be easier to catch
up now. I have come up
against a blank wall. What is
your opinion?
Answer: My first reaction is:
Why has your child dropped
so drastically since entering
school? If he did A work in
bis first three years you would
expect him to continue that
way. Is something bothering
him emotionally? Have you
checked with the school psy-
chologist or guidance counsel
or? On general principles 7
am opposed to the policy Of
holding back" a young child.
I have seen too many heart
breaks result, and often the
child may develop anti-social
attitudes toward his school.
I am surprised to hear that
your child attends a class with
So students. That is just about
double what a class should be.
Obviously, your boy needs in
dividual attention. If he con-
tinues to go to overcrowded
classes he may get deeper and
deeper into an academic bog.
What is the solution? Not re-
tention in the sixth grade, in
my opinion. OF course, this is
a generalization, as many fac
tors may enter the picture of
which I am unaware. The
child's teacher, principal and
guidance counselor df he has
one) would be in a better posi-
ton to make the final deci-
sion, or at least to offer sug-
gestions.
My own advice would be:
Let the child continue. Try to
place him in a smaller class.
Get a tutor an hour or two a
week if necessary. Take a SYM
pathetic interest in his school
work. Encourage him to sue
coed. If all this fails, you still
have time to have him repeat
a grade next year. I hope 1t
won't be necessary, though.

Kindergarten is a very much
maligned school grade. People
are always making up jokes
to illustrate how useless it is,
But it can be quite important,
as I explained to this concerned
mother.
Dear DR.. Mason:
Our town has never had a
kindergarten. About 800 chill
dren enter school here each
year. We are considering the
ACCESSIBILITY of establishing one.
What is your opinion of the
value of kindergarten?
Mrs. M. H, Norristown. Pa.
Starting school should be a
great happy adventure for a
child. But it can be a fright
ening experience.
The child is away from home
with a group Of other children
under the supervision of some
one other than his mother for
the first time. It takes time
to adjust to this situation.
Many children lack practice
in doing things with their
hands. This is necessary be-
fore they try to learn to write.

SEAMS TO NE
Special Care for
Enclosed Seams

I have often discussed the
Importance of properly fin
ishing the inside of a gar
ment. Nothing is more OBJ
viously unprofessional than
lumpy, badly-shaped edges. A
well-made garment should
have smooth, flat, we'll
shaped cuffs, collars, neck
lines and faced sections. The
way to achieve this is in the
stitching. trimming, clipping
or notching of inclosed seams.
Here are some rules to fol-
low:
Stitching: Always stitch in
a perfectly straight line. Wig
gly stitching lines show UP
on the outside. When turn
ing corners, do not pivot the
needle and m axe a sharp
turn. Instead, take one or
two diagonal stitches across
the corner.
Trimming Enclosed Seams
Layering Figure u: When
working with heavy fabric, or
If a facing and interfacing
are used on collars, cuffs,
front closings and necklines,
you must layer instead of
trimming in the usual man
ner. The trick is to trim one
seam allowance narrower
than the other. Trim the fac
ing, which is the bottom lay
er, to- about 70 inch. If an
interfacing is used. trim that
to "a inch. Trim the outer
fabric to a little wider than
"a inch. This will eliminate
the thick, lumpy edge often
seen on suits and coats.
Outside Corners Figure %:
Outside corners, such as those
on pointed cuffs and collars,
should be trimmed closer
than the rest of the seam.
First cut off the corner as
close as possible to the stitch
ing. Then, cut off a little at
each side of the point.
Inside Corners Figure 81
These are found on square
necks. You must clip in to
each corner, right up to the
stitching. This will give you
a good sharp square when
facing is turned.
Inside Curves Figure A.:
Found on necklines. these
curves must be clipped al
most to the stitching at reg
ular intervals. On slight
curves, clip far apart. On
very sharp curves, clip more
often with clips closer to-
gether. You'll also find that
this method of clipping works
wonders in the armholes OF
set-in sleeves for ease at the
underarm. Do not clip as close
to the stitching as you would
on a neckline. There is a good
deal of strain on a sleeve,
and If it tears repairing 1t
will be a problem.
Outside Curves (Figure 81:
Outer edges of collars are
often a problem because they
won't lie flat. The reason for
this: When the collar is
turned, tiny pleatS form in
the seam allowance. This ex-
cess fabric must be removed
to eliminate the bulky pleats.
Cut narrow notches in the
shape of a "V," but do not
cut quite to the seam line.

The number of notches used
depends on the curve. Sharp
curves require more notcheS
than slight curves.
