(AP) September's school bell will ring out the old, ring In the new, in sending children to school If the children's bureau has Its way. ? Gone- will be the patient mother . who washes little faces, combs a half dozen heads of hair,' buttons clothes and. laces shoes. All these things, . bureau experts claim' even a four-year-old can do for himself, given a convenient hair cut, buttbns In front, and big enougft button-holes. , Instead of doing things for the child that he could learn to do for himself, the proper parent will de vote home attention to how junior will psychologically fit Into' the school regime, the bureau sets forth. Analysis Needed Mother Is admonished to stop and Vilnk what kind of mind her child has, using these questions: Is he very bright? Is he quick but care less. Is he slow but careful? Is he quick with his head but slow with his hands? Is he slow with his head but quick wilft his hands? Is he slow In every way? 'You must know these things I" the bureau emphasizes. "If he Is not so bright as Johnny, remember that is not his fault. Do not say, 'Why can't you be like Johnny?' He will get discouraged and stop trying. "Or you may be afraid your child will think he Is smart and want to 'show off because he Is bright, So you tell Mm lie Is stupid. That Is bad too. He will believe you, and stop trying to learn." ; Muggestlons Olven Many suggestions Were given by the bureau for teaching children how to be Independent enough to get themselves off for school In the mor ning; and, to maintain self-respect while there: "Olve him a box to stand on In front of the wash basin so he ean wash hit faco and hands, Mark wlti colored atitohtng the front outside of his underwear so he won't put It on backslde-to and- wrong'slde-out, Olve him clothes that are easy to put on. Let him use tools. Try to make him think for himself. "When he finds something Is .hard to do, do not say before him, 'he takes after me, I never oould learn to Jump' or 'he takes after his father. He breaks everything he tries to fix.' When you say this, you are teaching him that It Is of no use to try. Prob ably he could do it very well after a llttlo. while If you let Aim try." , NEW JOBS CUT VIRGIN ISLANDS REDClSS LIST Department Interior Aiding Development Sugar In dustry Takes New Life- Public Works Started Olsen Directs Holly Stage Show AD FIGHT ECHOED IN PLEA FOR AIRJIGHTS Radio Commission to Con sider Plea for 267 New Stations Newspapers Watching Developments WASHINGTON (AP)-fho blKsest application for broadcasting facili ties over made by a single organiza tion Is scheduled for consideration . by the federal radio commlsslonaftcr Its summer reoess.
