August 13, 19S7 I entertain themselves, and make I Ilfe wlh small children the fun I it should be. Most of the sugges tions involved a minimum amount of strain and supervision on the part of the mother. "Something to dig in, some thing to swing on, something to splash in, something to climb on, something to ride on, something to jump on, something to walk on, something to sit on, some thing to lie down on, something to push, something for creeping and rrawling." This is their recipe for keeping the small fry happy outdoors, and there are instructions and diagrams as to how this equipment can be rig ged up at very little expense. For the indoor sessions, on those rainy days when the children are constantly underfoot with "nothing to do," the authors have suggestions for equally simple and i nexpensive equip ment. Such articles as a rope, a worn-rubber tire, an egg carton, an ordinary paper bag, a couple of discarded tin pans are used. In addition there are detailed ac counts of games and songs; sug gestions for "Very Special Events" such as holidays, birth days, motor trips, camping out ings all clear and practical ad vice. In the preface to "If You Live With Little Children" the auth ors have written: "We do not expect, nor even suggest that you use all of these ideas. But we think it is a book you might open in the evening, after a" day that did not seem to go quite right, and discover a suggestion that will give you a needed pickup, a fresh start, for the next day ... We are not child psychologists, and are not advising you how to raise your children. Instead, we have filled the book with different ways to enjoy them. One of us has taught nursery school for many years. The other has published a num ber of children's stories. But we think our most important "cre dential' is that we both live with little children, too." Mrs. Kauffman has three chil dren and finds time besides to teach at Millbrae Cooperative Nursery school. Patricia Farrell (Mrs. Zelver), a former news paperwoman, has two children and now devotes most of her time to being housewife and mother. The editors of McCall's mag azine thought so highly of the new book that they devoted sev eral pages of their July issue to a resume of its contents, with colored illustrations. The book itself is illustrated by Mrs. Zel ver's husband and Carmen Sil verberg. 4 ' ' Baking New York HP) When making corn meal muffins to go with chicken or seafood salad, try this flavor variation.

Taking Dictation Of Good Secretary's Duties Br GAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent New York It takes plenty more than taking dictation to be a capable girl Friday. A secretary may be required to laugh at her boss's jokes, funny or not; lend him cigarets or money; see that he gets a mid-afternoon snack; dose him with aspirin if all doesn't go well; even do his shopping. These duties above and be yond typing and telephoning came to light at a lunch-time gathering the other day, with 35 secretaries for 35 prominent men-and women doing the talk ing. Originally the girls gathered to honor Sadie Perlin, executive secretary to Gov. Goodwin J. Knight of California. Miss Per lin, who has been with Knight ever since his lieutenant gov ernor days, is the 1957 "secre tary of the year" selected by Underwood in a poll of 5,000 executives. Bases of Judgment Contestants were Judged on tact, personality, appearance, poise and on letters from their employers telling why they should be selected. Miss Perlin's reward: A week in New York. "First . time I've been east of the Rockies",, she said. The talk got down to bosses when a thoughtful soul from the typewriter company asked the secretaries to answer a few quessions. Included were, "What do you like about your boss?" and "What do you do to : keep your boss happy?" If any secretary loathed the man she worked for, she didn't get a chance to say so. The man from Underwood didn't ask about dislikes, apparently on the assumption a good secre tary knows when to keep her mouth shut. "I like my boss because he's single," said ongirl Friday. Personal References Others liked their emlpoyers' sense of humor, fairness and understanding. "The fact that he lets me do the filing," an swered Catherine Parsons, sec retary to Julius Rudel of the New York City Opera company. To the "What do you do to whatever you BE SAFE...
