With each doll goes a story the child can read. Their first doll came out las', year and was an immediate hit. It sold through toy shops and department stores. This year, their second doll they plan one design each year is a bride with paper hair, satin naner dress, but real tulle veil and real ribbon sash. She will be sold by mail order only. Works At Home , "We iust decided th nnlv way we can keep this business from getting too bis is to Vwn it direct mail," said Mrs. Tier- nan. ..- . Mrs. Tiernan, who does all her own housework, cuts and assem bles the doll parts and ward robes in "my studio" one room of her house. Miss McKenna works either at her office after hours or her home in Bronx ville, N. Y., giving the profes sional touch to drawings and painting the dresses and doll features. Mrs. Tiernan. a native of Oma ha, Neb., said that, "Eighteen or years ago, i studied puppetry and modeled papier-mache dolls. I also took costume design. .So all my training just fitted this doll business." She first made doll wardrobes of real fabrics and sold F. A. O. Schwarz, the famous New York toy store. Sold Shop Eventually she opened a doll repair shop in White Plains, and specialized in restoration of val uable antique dolls for dealers. "The shop got to be full-time, so I sold it," she said. "But I'd had that idea of paper dolls for a long time . . . now seemed a good time to go to work on it." The women started with $500 capital and "made money right from the beginning," said Mrs. Tiernan. But the profit has been plowed back into production as orders multiplied. Mrs. Tiernan advised any woman planning to start a proj ect to seek professional advice before spending capital. "I took a sample of my doll kit to the woman's program," she said. "They gave me a lot of guidance." She referred to the woman's program of the New York State Department of Com merce. The program, only one of its kind in the nation, specializes in helping women with problems of pricing, registry of name, in surance, expansion and distribu tion of their products. writ ahWshiosh restful piefureson- in ugmiwk m I Tht DECATUR 21' HaloLight tab! model In Mahogany grained finish; Blonds, legi extra.
