Is Idea of Former NATO Men
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
New York (U.R) Two rubber
rhinoceroses from South Africa
just lost their chance to join
a toy project designed to bring
more of the wide, wide world
into lives of American children
The rhinos, as they are re
ferred to by spelling cowards,
flunked the taste test for one
thing.
"We found," said Clinton
Gardner, holding a dull-finish
rubber rhino in one hand and

a shiny-surfaced copy in the oth
er, "that very small children
didn't like the taste. 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.
Editor Requests

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. . Combine 1
cup ground or chopped cooked
ham, cup cubed Swiss cheese,"
2 tablespoons chopped, green
pepper, 2 tablespoons chopped
celery, 2 diced hard-cooked eggs
and 2 tablespoons mayonnaise.
Deviled cheese: Blend; Vz
pound grated Cheddar' cheese, 14
cup soft butter, 1 tablespoon
chili sauce, 1 teaspoon prepared
mustard, 1 tablespoon minced
onion and salt and pepper to
taste.
