U. S. Storts Drive
To Upgrade Maids

For the first time in history,
the Government is launching a
major drive to upgrade tn e
training and status Of house
hold workers. It would give to
women who enter this field the
skills they need, the pay they
deserve and the dignity they
want.
The campaign is being Or
ganized by the Women's Bu-
reau in the Department of La
Dor and the office of Education
in the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare.
The educational program is
being directed at the public in
general as well as the workers
for the objective is not just tc
train women in q long list Of
household skills. An equally
important aim is to eliminate
the archaic image Of the "serv-
ant" so that many more
women will want to become
household employees and their
employers will respect them as
they respect any office or fac
tory worker.
The shortage of skille d
household workers in the
United States is acute. At the
same time, the rates of I'M
employment and job shifting
among women who are house
hold workers are among the
highest of any group.

To correct him, start leaving

periods and if he begins to

may work. If not, spank him

The First Shoes for School Wear
Should Be Bought with Care

A first grader needs a first
class shoe to get his school car
eer off on the right foot. A
youngster with uncomfortable
feet encaSed in ill-fitting or
poorly constructed shoes fid-
gets, loses contact with school
work and soon becomes a dis
ciplinary problem.
A mother taking her child
for his first pair of school
shoes" will protect his foot
health-and contribute to bet
ter classroom performance-by
following five basic rules. Par-
entS of veteran scholars in the
second grade and up should
also take note.)
l. Buy no shoe unless it fits
perfectly. The tip of the shoes
should extend three-quarters
of an inch beyond the end
of his longest toe. Have the
child walk about the shoe
store for several minutes while
you look to see that there is
no gaping at back or sides and
he makes sure it's comfortable.
2. Choose sturdy all-leather
shoes. Foot specialists and pc
d1atricianS recommend supple
leather uppers that bend and
stretch with active, growing
feet. A tough leather sole gives
protection to tender feet while
1t provides controlled eIasti-
city that helps the shoe hold
It's shape. A smooth leather
inning covers rough seams and
prevents red and irritated feet.
3. Recently issued govern
ment "Shoe guides" provide
The Sidney herald., 1963-08-07

that shoe parts which look like
leather, but are not, must be
labeled. To insure you get
leather, check the label.
4. Provide a change of foot
wear. Like adults, children
should not wear the same shoes
all the time. Your youngster
should change to play shoes
after school. They should be
of the same substantial leather
construction to protect his feet
from constant pavement poun-
ding. Leather, which "breathes

and increase his study efficien-
cy - by adding to or arranging
the available light for best
results.
3. Check the mattress TO de-
termine whether it's past its
useful life.
The Sidney herald., 1963-08-07
Check Student
Living Area

No doubt about it, going to
school is hard work. The day
in-day-out schedule of classes.
eXtra-curricular activities and
nighttime homework is ia
tiguing.
That's why it's a good idea
for the parents to check the
youngsters room to make sure
he will benefit from the best
combined study and rest cnvir-
onment.
Here are a few check points:
/. Work space should be ade-
quate for reading and writing
assignments. Set aside a study
corner in the students room,
including perhaps a classroom
desk, SO that he can get his
work done in privacy, rather
than combat distracting ''fam-
lily noises" in other parts of the
home. Rugs, draperies help to
cut down the noise.
2. Pay careful attention to
lighting. Try reading in the
room yourself, and if the light
seems inadequate to you, pro

water. If color holds after five
minutes, the article can be
