Crippled Kids Society Provides Training Program Self-help training is one of the major phases of the therapeutic program sponsored by the Orange county Society for Crippled Children and Adults, Mrs. Burton Schoen, staff occupational therapist, pointed out. Handicapped youngsters and adults who come on prescription to the organization's therapy and recreation center at 1008 Logan street in Santa Ana, very often lack muscular coordination necessary to self-help skills such as eating and dressing, Mrs. Schoen said. With development of coordination and muscle re-education, many of the patients can acquire the basic self-help skills that lead to higher goals, Mrs. Schoen declared. Patients come to the workshop for therapeutic exercise under trained supervision. Special equipment is employed and includes weighted looms, extended pottery wheels, treadles, and woodworking tools. Eating training requires use of specially adapted silverware and dishes. Dressing training requires use of practice boards with zippers, buttons, laces and snaps. This training is offered free of charge and is available on prescription from a doctor. It is financed by annual sale of Easter Seals.

ENOWSHOE POSTMAN RAWLINS, Wyo. (P) — Jack Bechtold, Dixon mail carrier, hops for an early spring.

Don’t Touch that Garden! Save Time and Work with a Plan BY CYNTHIA LOWRY AP Newsfeature Writer It probably was not a vegetable garden to which the old philosopher referred as a "lovesome thing," but the average week-end gardener is just as proud of his tomatoes, bush beans or peas as he is of his roses, dahlias or peonies. Vegetable gardening, however, is to be approached on a very different level from flower gardening. The first step, naturally, is to determine how much land is to be available for the plant beds. It has been estimated that an area of about 1500 square feet—a garden of 50 by 30 feet—can produce enough for fresh use, canning and storing to provide for one person for a year. Obviously, few spare-time gardeners have this kind of space, and will use their vegetable garden as a supplement to store-purchased vegetables. Each family must figure out whether they want to use their vegetable garden for the joy of eating home-produced specialties, like strawberries or melons, or put it to strictly utilitarian crops. Make A Plan The second step is to make a plan, with garden footage translated on paper into fractions of inches, and with notations about the number of feet required between the various plants and between the various rows. Each vegetable garden is going to be an individual affair, but there are some general rules which apply to all vegetable gardens if they are going to be satisfactory. In the first place, pick a spot which, of your own knowledge, receives a minimum of six hours of full sunshine daily. More than that is even better. Secondly, be as fussy as a spinster about making a garden of straight edges and meticulously straight rows. This will make for later ease of cultivation, and it will also make for a prettier garden. Seed Selection Important Select your seeds with care being guided by your seedman's recommendations (in lieu of your own experience about satisfactory types). Spend considerable effort on the soil, for the best vegetables are grown from porous, rich loam. Put your garden within hosing distance of a water source—some day a drought is bound to come. Try to save space wherever possible by stringing vines on fences, trellises and other supports. By all means tie up the tomato vines as a space saver. Utilize the sunlight by putting the tall-growing plants at the back of the garden—tomatoes, corn and such—and the low-growing plants like lettuce, parsley and the like way up front. Study up on crop rotation even in a small garden—peas, followed by a root crop to keep a balance of nutrients in the soil. Plant carefully to fill the spots emptied by early-maturing crops like the first planting of lettuce or spinach with a longer-to-harvest crop for use in the fall. Study Each Plant Consult the books on the habits and appreciations of each plant; you'll reap larger harvests. Give the birds and the bees an assist in their pollinating job by planting the corn, for example, in a single area.

CENTER ST., ANAHEIM-PHONE 7283 Husbands and Wives Advised To Spruce Up Their Homewear BY BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (PA) — Imagine coming home from work and finding the little woman vacuuming the parlor in a sarong! What's sarong with that? asks designer Edith Head. She is launching a campaign to make the home more glamorous. "Glamor has gone out of the home," sighed the pert brunette who designs clothes for Betty Hutton, Bete Davis and other film queens. "There are two occasions in the day when a man and wife notice each other most. That's when he is leaving for work in the morning and when he returns home at night. Both occasions are duds, sartorially speaking. "When a wife gets up in the morning, she throws a robe around herself, whips up a quick breakfast, dresses the kids and spoons some food down the baby. When her husband last views her before going to work, her hair is still up in curlers and she is a mess. "When he returns home at night, she is worn out from minding the kids all day and taking care of the house. She is too busy making dinner to change the old clothes she has been cleaning the house in." But what can be done about this situation, aside from going into hook and hiring a maid? "The wife should steal a few minutes to beautify herself," said Miss Head. "And if she doesn't have the time to change her clothes, then she should wear a uniform that would be neat and attractive at times." What Garden! with a Plan Sunshine daily. More than even better.

"The wife should steal a few minutes to beautify herself," said Miss Head. "And if she doesn't have the time to change her clothes, then she should wear a uniform that would be neat and attractive at times. "DOCTORS, BUSINESSMEN, carpenters—all lines of work have their own uniforms. Yet the biggest single group of working people—the housewives—have no uniform. I think women make a mistake in using their old, worn-out clothes to do the housework in. Thus they spend most of their lives in old clothes. "I don't mean that they have to invest in fancy wardrobes. I think one uniform for the housewife could be the housecoat, which can be neat, attractive and inexpensive. She can perform her home duties in it, and still look glamorous when her husband comes home at night." The housewife could also adopt other eye-appealing outfits, she added, even suggesting a sarong. Miss Head whipped one up for Rhonda Fleming to wear in "Tropic Zone." She said that the creation could easily be manufactured for housewife use, particularly in warmer climes. Miss Head's criticism of the loss of glamor wasn't only directed at the fair sex. She also raped the husbands of America. "The average man in business dresses up in the morning so he can look his best throughout the day," she cited. "But when he gets home, he doesn't care how he looks. He wants to get into something more comfortable. In days of more graceful living, that would have meant a handsome dressing robe or a Prince Albert jacket. "But nowadays when he gets into something more comfortable, he wears something old and worn like a sweat-shirt, jeans and sneakers."
