The advantage in group association without rigid group conformity is an admirable feature, he said. Mr. Daniels encouraged the girls . to explore the wide range of . ideals for the future which are suggested in this year's birthday oject. 'Together We Make To- : rriorrow." Mr. Daniels is the assistant chief domiciliary officer at Camp White.

Ernst, who likes to knit while riding the bus to her job at a local department store, has solved her problem. She may have solved one of yours, too. if you like to knit. She has come up with a combin ation knitting needle - crochet hook. Trouble was she said she need-: ed a crochet hook to pick up dropped stitches and tie ends while knitting on the bus. And often she didn't have one in her knitting bag. So she had a local gunsmith make the combination needle hook. Then she had it patented. It goes into commercial produc tion early this year. The device is called "Pick Up Stitch." It is a steel knitting needle with the crochet hoc k fitted into thtop. easily extended for use.

Architect Suggests Analyzing Personality Before Home Decoration New York iU.P.J Before you decorate ycur home, analyze your personality. That's the advice of a leading Japanese architect, Junzo Yoshi nrura. He believes homes should reflect the personality of per sons who live in them, noi the personality of the designer. Yoshimura, an architect for 30 years, is a professor at Tokyo University of Fine Arts and has designed buildings in the Unit ed States. His work includes the Japanese "House in the Garden" at the Museum of Modern Art. New York, the Japan Air Lines office in Rockefeller Center and a motel. To create an individual effect, he advised, never stick to one style or period. Combine furni ture, fabric designs and orna ments of different periods, but be sure they blend. Yoshimura also said it is pos sible to create a lovely room by usingy furniture you already have. Furniture does not have to be beautiful," he said. "It may have a sentimental value and bring out your personality." Specialist Prefers Clear and Colorful Books for Children Urbana, 111. U.P.; The liter ary likes and dislikes of a two or three-year-old may differ greatly from what adults think he should like. Large, clear and colorful pic tures of something the child knows and understands rate much higher than the "cute" books that more sophisticated adult tastes sometimes dictate. So says Queenie Mills, Uni versity of Illinois child develop ment and family relations spe cialist, who reports that the best books contain pictures of ani mals with an accompanying sen tence or two. so the child can hear about and see the action at the same time. Large, life-like renderings are favored over smaller and more stylized pictures. The pictures should be uncluttered so the child can understand the action easily, she said.

University of Illinois experts say. "Simply keep the milk clean, cold, covered and dark," the rules state. Provide a .wood or metal in sulated box for the milk if you have it home-delivered. Sunlight can cause a loss of riboflavin or a "sunlight" off-flavor. Be sure the milk carton or bottle is not dirty on the out side before placing inside the refrigerator. Return unused milk to the refrigerator immediately so it does not have a chance to get warm. Don't mix fresh milk with old. unless you are going to use the mixture immediately. utnerwise, a stale liavor may develop.
