Grandma's Not an Old Fogy-
SljHelping Win the War
By EDITH
i f NEW YORK, Dec.:
she wants people to quit shoving
v - Grandma's work in the
dozen hints of how she can be
lined Monday by Mrs. , Darrelle
Shirley: of Mystic, Conn- presi
dent of the American Grandma s
association. . -vY."-
This no dues group was formed
to let America know its grandmas
are lively ladies who are, willing
and able to help in the .war ef
fort' -k ! - j
"Usually when you think - of
grandma you immediately conjure
up a picture of a rayhaired lady
sitting in a rocking chair, or of
a gabby old 1 fuss-budget,? : said
Mrs. Shirley. "Well, that's a very
untrue picture. . A small number
of us may be like that, but the
majority are definitely different,
especially since Pearl Harbor. We
are . in the assembly lines of war
plants; we are patrolling the
streets during air raid alarms and
we are taking care of homes so
that others may be released for
the more vigorous jobs of war
work." ' .
Some 3000 grandmas are in war
factories, Mrs. Shirley said, be
sides the innumerable ones who
cook, sew, 1 mind ; children and
otherwise run the home front
while younger adults do war jobs.
The association's hints for being
perfect grandma include:.
1) Never interfere in a family
argument "a 'referee in domestic
squabbles always gets hurt,"
(2) Don't complain about food
prepared by others and boast of
your own cooking, ,
(3) Don't take advantage of
your age and have everyone wait
on you lend a hand and be in'
dependent, i 1 -
(4) Don't bore visitors with old
anecdotes and the family album,
(5) Don't have "favorite" grand
children but divide your affection
eaually. and (6) don't advise
about in-laws.

another passenger, who asketi if
