NO PRO?
Mrs. Suits experience in
journalism must have given her
the opportunity to observe first
hand the contribution of intelli-
gent publicity to the effective
ness of an organization or an
office. We have observed for
the last nine months that Mrs.
Suit has paid full attention to
the public relations phase of
her office. 1t is sad to admit
that the work of a public rela
tons officer has not been as
signed to any of her staff per-
sonnet; or, is it more proper to
say that no one in the consul
generals staff is qualified, eth
er by training or experience, to
perform the duties of a PRO?
But, it is consoling to realize
that the Consul-General, her
self, is doing the job of a pub
lie relations officer. And she
is doing it admirably we'll We
have observed Mrs. Suit write
the publicity articles for her of
flee herself. Her journalistic
experience is thus proving a
great asset to her.
Consul General Suit has he'd
a comparatively meteoric rise in
the Philippine Foreign Service,
which she justly deserves. We
would not be surprised if, in
the near future, she would be
come the second ambassadress
of the Republic of the Philip
pines. - V. A. V.

Envy Of Her Sex

Envy Of Her Sex
Mrs. Suit, who holds the
rank of minister and currently
occupying the post of consul
general of the PhiliDpines for
the Pacific Northwest, has a
record of academic accomplish
ment and service that is the
envy of her sex and NAV be
equalled, but not surpassed, by
any of her fellow-countryWom-
en-.
Born with the proverbial sill
ver-spoon in her mouth, so to
speak, the climate Of scholar
ship and educational environ
ment were favorable to Estela
and conducive to high prof.
cheney in academic accomplish
ments. Unlike MANY others who
had been spoiled bv wealth, So
cial position and family pres
tige, Mrs. Estela R. Suit prov
ed to be a different sample of
Gods children. She was a con-
scientious and ambitious stu
dent and, even with wealth at
her command. she still did work
during her COLLEGE DAYS to play
true to form of the modern col
lege student.
MAGAZINE EDITOR
She worked as a law clerk
for an associate justice of the
Philippine Supreme Court who
happened to be her uncle. AL
though pursuing a legal educa-
ton. she occupied an editorial
position in a woman's maya
zine in Manila. incidentally,
poem by this writer occupied
one page of this magazine in
an issue under the editorship of
Mrs. Sulit.)
Graduating from law school,
Mrs. Suit passed the bar eX-
aminations and became a mem
Der of the Philippine bar. She
has the distinction of being the
first woman lawyer from the
Philippines to be admitted to
practice law before the ST.
preme Court of the United
States.
JOINS FOREIGN SERVICE IN
1916
We shall hurry over a period
of years before and during
World War II. During this time
Mrs. Suit, nee Estela Romual-
DEE, had come to the United
States with her husband, Capt.
Mariana S. Suit (U. S. Army,
Retired) to reside. After the
war when she visited the Phil
ippines in 1916, the late Manuel
A. RoXas, then president of the
Philippine Republic, offered her
a lob in the foreign service.
She began as executive Off
Ger in the Philippine Consulate
General in San Francisco. Then
she opened the Philippine Lega-
ton in Mexico City in 1858, re-
turning to San Francisco in
1854. She went back to Mex
leo City in 1856 as charge d.
affaires, From 1859 until Au-
guest, 1862, she was consul
general in Chicago. She was as
signed to the consulate-general
in Seattle in September last
year.

months. we believe, are suffi-
cient to give us a better per-
spective and to arrive at more
intelligent judgment unspoiled
by proximity to the subject in
either time or space.
BRILLIANT AND VERSATILE
No one assuming the role of
critic can escape the fact
that Estela Romualdez Suit,
coming from a family of sChol-
ars, educators, jurists, political
leaders and high government
officials, has thus inherited the
brilliancy and versatility of her
forbears. In school and in So
ciety, Estela had always been
dynamic member and leader,
recipient of academic honors
and prominent in civic endeav-
ors. Her academic training,
leadership experience, family
background and prestige are all
assets in her diplomatic career
which, so far, has been marked
by high proficiency and extra
ordinary achievements,
We have watched the lady
diplomat ever since she joined
the foreign service of the Phil
ippines in 1916, and even more
closely and critically since her
arrival to be the consul-gener-
al of the Philippines in Seattle.
We have not been used to law
ishly throwing bouquets, espe-
cially to government officials;
but, this time, not unconscious
ly, our orchids" go to Mrs.
Estela R. Suit, Philippine con-
sul-general for til e Pacific
Nor Invest.
hAANAA IL W
First in our critical evalua-
ton of the Consul-General is
the high degree of efficiency in
her official duties. She knows
the answers, or if she does not
then she knows where to find
them. She has the "snap judy
ment" of a Quezon, the rhetor-
ical excellence of a Recto and
the oratorical ability of a Ro-
mulo. She has risen to the de-
mands of all occasions and has
always come out with flying
colors.
For the last nine months
since her arrival in Seattle, she
has spoken before no less than
thirty organizations, among
them being the Seattle Bankers
Association, the Arctic Club of
Seattle, the United Nations
Day at the Chamber of Com
merce, a Radio Interview at H
XI, the World Trade Mission of
the Seattle Chamber of Com
merce, the Word Affairs Coun-
Gil, a press interview with the
Seattle Post Intelligencer, the
City Women's Club at the
Rhodes Auditorium, the Mt.
B aker Park Presbyterian
Church, the Washington Repub-
lican Club, an interview in Sta
/ ton KXO, the Seattle Rotary
Club. the American League of
Women Voters, the Congrega-
tional Church in Tacoma, the
First Methodist Church in Ia
coma and the Kiwanis Club.
Besides the above American
organizations and offices, Mrs.
Suit has also spoken to at
least fourteen Filipino associa-
lions in the Seattle, Yakima
and Portland areas.

Children, supposedly safe at
nome, are poisoning themselves
at the rate Of nearly $500 a day.
When you consider that
more than a quarter million
home-used products on the mar
ket contain toxins, it is not diff
hcult to understand why more
than 500 children die each
year from self administered
poisons," said F. ]. L. Blasin-
game, Md, executive vice.
president of the American Med
ical Association.
Children are naturally GU
rious, especially the very young
ones. They IRE prone to stick
INTO their mouths anything they
can get in their hands. 1t doesn't
even have to taste good or look
pretty"
Most accidental poisonings
occur in children under FIVE.
Two-year-olds are the most poi
son prone, with one-year-olds
close behind. At this stage in
life their curiosity is at its
height and their sense of fear
not yet developed. DR.. Blasin-
game explained.
Medicine, especially aspirin,
heads the list Of items children
seem to like to sample, account
ing for nearly half of all acct
dental ~poisonings. In fact, too
much of virtually any. medicine
can produce serious conse-
quences.
Among the supposed nom
edibles that frequently find
their way into children's ssom-
achs are cleaning and polishing
agents, detergents, shoe polish,
cosmetics, wakes, insecticides,
paint, turpentine, chalk,
beaches, plant foods, plaster,
perfume and decorations.

AS you pack your bags and

be sure you do several things
for convenience and safety
before you leave home.
Be sure you arrange for the
mail to be picked up and for

Nothing tells the passersby
that you are away from home
more than an accumulation

Tell a neighbor where you

If you live in a town, you
might tell your local police
YOU will be away and ask
them to check on the house
every now and then.
Arrange for care of pets at
your neighbours or the vet

Store lawn tools and furni-

A primary cause of such acct

storing poisonous substances in
food containers or soft drink
bottles. A toddler just nat.
urally assumes that a soft drink
bottle contains a treat. He'll
drink whatever he finds in it.
The facts are clear" he
warned. Between IS and 70
per cent Of all poisonings take
place because an item was ac-
cessible to a child.
