Little girls thought the animals were too ugly and six-year-old boys ob jected to the squeeze-squeaker in the stomach as too childish." Gardner and his partner, Ala stair Kyle, decided a year ago to try and promote some toy scheme which would make more American children aware at an early age that they lived in only one of many nations in the world. Both young men had traveled widely, both had worked for NATO and both spoke four or five languages, so they took off in separate directions to begin setting up a far flung toy busi ness. Finally their business, chris tened "Toys of the World" began to grow as a sort of the toy-of-the-month club for children from two to 12 years old, mailed in each case directly to the child from the country it represented along with a folder telling some thing of the life in the country. They have approved toys from eight countries, and already mailed out some 50,000 Alpine villages from Austria to their first customers. They considered a German construction toy a neat box filled with metal pieces, rubber wheels and complicated dia grams. "It's really a fascinating toy," Kyle said regretfully, "but the trouble is you have to be about a 40-year-old construction en gineer to figure it out." Then there was a hand-painted dragon ' from Hong Kong, something no child should be without. It's on, the discard table with the rhinoceroses. The world is full of a number of things, the two young men de cided, more attractive than dragons and rhinoceroses.

Let Freedom Ring Camp Fire Slogan For Annual Drive Camp Fire Girls in Medford and . in other towns and cities across the nation this week start the annual "membership march" which extends until November 30. "Let Freedom Ring!" the 1955 slogan of the Camp Fire Girls, is the special theme for the membership march. It marks 45 years in which Camp Fire has helped girls to become good homemakers and citizens. Unlike many marches with which everyone is familiar, this is one where brass bands and martial commands are replaced with this cheerful invitation: "Be friendly make friends make friends join the Camp Fire Girls!" "Many in Medford already are sold on the Camp Fire Girls," Mrs. Gerity said today. "We've seen the little Blue -Birds, hap pily at work and play, the Camp Fire Girls, and the senior high school .Horizon club members dashing about town in their trim uniforms, going to meetings or taking part in civic affairs.' "You mothers and fathers whose daughters already belong to Camp Fire have seen the re sults 6f their special training sampled the cakes they've baked, enjoyed a night out because your Sally learned in child care proj ects how to deal with Junior, been proud when your Horizon club girls lived up to teen-size responsibility. "All of us in Medford are richer because of our splendid Camp Fire Girls' groups, for members "give service" not only at home but in the community and nation. Look around and over the months you'll see Camp Fire members working as hos pital and civilian defense aides, ringing doorbells to help get out the vote. You'll find them sell ing candy, doughnuts or holding other sales. What do they do with the money? Sometimes it's used for camping and .'other group ex penses. More often it's used for others to buy toys for children in orphanages or hospitals, cloth ing for children and adults here and abroad. All of us know how our Camp Fire groups pitched in to help send clothing to; Ko rea last Halloween. "Wherever there are Camp Fire Girls, there is fun and laughter. Camp Fire Girls hike and camp and cook outdoors; they swim and dance and enjoy all kinds of games and sports. All the while, they are learning new skills and crafts. Built around the home and family Camp Fire's character-building program emphasizes the individ ual development of each girl." Lunch Highlight For School Child; Variety Important Lunch is a big event in the busy day of a school child. It can be a real highlight if it is carried to school in an attrac tively packed box and contains a variety of tasty, nourishing foods. Lunchtime is re-fueling time for all of us, but children par ticularly need a nourishing noon meal for they are growing and burning up lots of energy. Luncheon foods should not only satisfy their appetites but should be rich in minerals, vitamins, and energy-producing foods. If your youngster carries a lunch each day, take the time to see that his lunchbox contains the following foods: one or two substantial foods such as eggs, cheese, meat or fish; bread; milk; and a fruit or vegetable. Most schools make it possible for the children to buy milk to drink with their lunch, but if not, milk can and. should be carried in a thermos bottle. "Variety is important in a packed lurtch, as is .attractive packaging. Mother cannot be there to see that her child eats his packed lunch that he needs, but she can make it "attractive and appetizing so he'll want to eat it. Little things can make the, difference between, a plain lunch and an exciting one col ored paper napkins, for exam ple, are ' more fun than plain ones. Plan to include a cup cus tard, cottage cheese, fruit salad or a . simple pudding often in. a packed lunch. . It relieves the monotony of sandwiches and can be done easily by using either inexpensive plastic or pa per containers and plastic spoons and forks. Remember, youngsters love a surprise: a cube of cheese, a deviled egg, their favorite fruit, a few raisins or salted nuts, or a nickel for an ice cream cone' These foods will add both flavor and food value to their lunch, as will these good-tasting cheese sandwich fillings. ' Cottage cheese special: Combine 1 cup cottage cheese, 1 table spoon minced onion, 2 table spoons chopped sweet pickle or pickle relish and 1 tablespoon mayonnaise. Spread on whole wheat , bread and add a leaf of crisp lettuce. . Swiss-Ham salad. .
