YOUR CHILD TODAY—
Do You Know Your Bahy Sitter?
py DAVID TAYLOR MARKE
AP Education Writer
arter taking care of Junior these
. days almost all of us jump at
e chance to get out of the house
.- an evening—that is if we can
.ot a baby sitter. 2
“" 5 the mother of young children,
«vs Dr. Alice Sowers, professor
" family life education at the
y]"lbi\‘r‘l sity Of Oklahomfl. tbe blby
_ivtar is her passport to the out«
_.Je world. Since the sitter’s role,
‘nen, is really that of substitute
arent, she needs the kind of
nowledge that will enable her to
Ulav that important role both with
confidence and skill.
writing in National Parent-
Teacher Magazine, Dr. Sowers
<avs that despite the fact parents
do everything they ean to keep
their children healthy and safe,
invariably they will bring into
their homes girl baby sitters about
wnom they know practically noth
ine—nothing about their health,
their backgrounds, what they do to
eep children quiet, what threats
and bribes they will use to control
ihem. In short, they know little
shout their baby sitters except that
they are willing to stay at the
house for so much an hour.
Yet, what are parents to do?
“In our present manner of liv
ing” she says, “a sitter is uswally
a 2 necessity. Only a comparatively
tew homes have the blessing of a
relative or servant who can be
counted on to stay with the chil
dren and who knows the family
and the way parents handle prob
lems arisinajin the home.”
Usually there are two types of
paby sitters: the person who sits
in the house when children are in
bed and the one who stays with
the children during their waking
hours.
“Any responsible person of good
health and character can do the
evening kind of sitting satisfac
torily,” believes Dr. Sowers.
The parents who go off for the
evening, she says, should leave all
the information the sitter will need
—telephone numbers of the family
doctor, the fire department, the
police, and the place where the
parents themselves can be reached.
If the parents will not be near a
telephone they should leave the
name of the person who can be
HOTEL HOUSEKEEPER’S HINT—
SYSTEM EASES
BY GAILE DUGAS
NEA Staff Writer
NEW YORK-— (NEA) — If you
make wour housework a daily
drudgery, you’re no more efficient
than the housewife who conducts
exhausting cleaning campaigns in
spring and fall. That’s the verdict
of Mrs. Louise F, Stumpe, house
keeper for 1000 rooms in New
York's Prince George Hotel.
“System,” Mrs. Stumpe says, “is
the answer to the problem of
cleaning with the utmost efficien
cy. But it should be your own sys
tem, not one drawn up for house
wives generally. Before you can
work it out, you must consider
the area in which you live, the fuel
burned fn your neighbors® fur
naces, your husband’s job and your
own personal habits and energy.
Any system of housecleaning
should be based on a realistic view
of your home and family, Mrs.
Stumpe feels.
“Schedule your eleaning around
vour households’ needs. For in
stanee, if your husband spends his
week-end in the garden and tracks
up the kitchen with mud each
Saturday and Sunday, plan your
floor scrubbing for Monday, not
g up with thousands of
ts makes this realistic ap
ch an absolute necessity for a
I housekeeper. Many of the
teuts Mrs. Stumpe has devised
be applied to any home. Mrs.
npe thinks the most important
sekeeping maxim is: never let
get ahead of you. Dirt means
a work, extra wear. Take it
vefore it has a chance to dig in.
\lways have plenty of twoels
[ linens on hand and change
m at least twice a week, she ad
cs. It means more laundry but
also means less scrubbing for
! and therefore, longer life for
Real silk lampshades whereever
possible are an economy. They can
be washed safely in the bathtub
with mild soap and warm water,

called in &n emergency.
They should take care to answer
the sitter’s inevitable questions in
advance by telling her about the
night habits of children, such as
sleepinfi‘ with" toys and going to
the bathroom; what to do if the
child awakens; what to do with
pets at bedtime; at what hour the
parents expect to return; and what
use the sitter may make of the
telephone for personal calls. A
young sitter may want to enter
tain a friend, if so, tell her the
rules about this and likewise what,
if any food in the refrigerator may
be eaten.
But finding the proper sitter for
a child’s waking hours is another
story, she says. When children
are labelled “brats” by sitters, a
mother may find it increasingly
difficult to find a sitter available
when she needs one. Children
must respect the authority of the
sitter. Otherwise it is unsafe to
leave them with her, no matter
how fine she is :
Parents, says Dr. Sowers, should
by all means know the sitter per
sonally. Says she: “How else can
they find out what the children
are learning from her in the way
of stories, fears, ideals, and super
stititions? What radio programs
are tuned in when she is there?
What methods of diseipline does
she use? Do the children impose
~on her, take advantage of her posi
tion as an outsider? What does the
girl say and do during the pa
rent’s absence? Who comes into
the house when the parents are
gone?”
What can be done to safeguard
both sitters and families as this
big business continues to become
an ever more important part of
home and family life? Dr. Sowers
says that in some schools and col
le?es, there are courses in baby
sitting which outline rates of pay
and rules and provide a form of
training. These schools also main
tain an employment agency where
calls are received and sitters sup
plied.
Prospective and active sitters
learn something about children
and child development at differcent
ages. They discuss their relation
ship with the family and their re
sponsibility to the parents. They
develop a code regarding their
personal behavior and their job.
HOUSEWORK
then hung in the open air to dry,
Similarly, plastic upholstery fab
rics are easy on the budget. They
can be wiped clean.
When oyu clean any room, begin
from the top and work down. If,
however, you use a cylinder type
vacuum cleaner in the living room,
do the rugs first so that the ex
haust doesn’t blow loose dust
around the room.
Schedule one job of heavy
cleaning, such as blindwashing,
each week. Don’t let these jobs
pile up so they must all be done
together. Spread out“over a year’s
time, they won’t seem major obsta
cles.
A coat of paste wax on window
sills and door jambs makes finger
prints and soot easier to remove.
When soiled, remove the wax with
a soft cloth moistened with tur
pentine, or wash with a detergent
and warm water.
One last bit of advice from Mrs.
Stumpe: when you buy for your
home, buy the best your budget
will allow; it lasts longer and looks
better,

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
Hueftner Discusses Child-Labor
Provisions Of New Federal Act
“The child-labor provisions of
the Fair Labor Standards Act
with the amendments which be
came effective this year marked
another milestone on.the road to
child-labor protection,” Henry A,
Huettner, Invatifation Supervisor,
U. 8. Department of Labor, Wage
and Hour and Public Contracts Di=
visions, told the Georgia Visiting
Teachers Association at a meeting
at the University of Georgia here
this week,
Mr, Huettner explained that the
1949 amendments greatly strength
ened the child-labor provisions of
the Act in that, for the first time,
it contained a direect prohibition
against employment of such labor,
The greater part of his brief talk
was devoted to child-labor prohi
bitions in agriculture. “Such pro
hibitions,” he said, “apply only
to the time wnen school is actually
in session and does not apply to
the employment by parents of
their chifilren on their own farm.”
Mr. Huettner further stated that
an employer will be protected
from unintentional wiolations of
the child-labor provisions of the
Act if he has on file an age cer
tificate issued or accepted by the
U. S. Department of Labor, show-
ing the young person to be of legal
age for employment. In Georgia,
the Department of Labor accepts
age certificates issued by County
School Superintendants or school
officials designated by them,
In agriculture, the child-labor
provisions apply only o produce
tion of goods which will be ship~
ped in interestate or foreign com
merce, either in their natural state
or after being processed.
Following Mr. Huettner’s talk,
he answered questions on specific
problems from the floor. !fe ans
nounced that further information
relative to oppressive child labor
and other provisions of the Act
could be obtained by writing his
office at 1017 Grant Building, At
lanta, Georgia.
From its derivation, the word
“classic” means first class.
NAIL POLISH DISAPPEARS *
For many women, the job of re
moving nail polish is one of the
most tedious in the whole mani
curing procedure. Some do with~
out polish altogether, in order to
avoid this pesky routine,
Now, thanks to a new product,
there’s another answer to this dif
ficulty, You can keep your nails
as colorfui and shining as you
flenc without worrying about the
ime-consumption and messiness
of removal, according to its spon
sor.
The product features an entire
ly different approach to polish
removal. Instead of using dabs of
cotton as you formerly did, you
simply insert your nail — finger

A few brisk whisks of your nail
against a curved brush, which is
permanently fastened just below .
the neck of the bottle, and the old
coating is gone. No smears are left
around the cuticle, its makers say.
Something new has also been
added to the dissolving agent,
which leaves a light, re!easant
scent upon the fingers after they
are dry. The remover may be used
many times without changing to
new fluid from the refill bottle
that makes up part of the package.
