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 ' '

ican Indian welfare in the state
of Oregon.
Several American Indian
speakers have appeared on coun
cil programs from time to time
to present first hand information
regarding the present problems.
Perhaps the most colorful speak
er ever to appear in behalf of his
people was Dr. T. Ramar S. Bull,
grandson of Chief Sitting Bull.

ure, members of the council will
sell the many study books to
those desiring them and those
not sold will be sent to the
Klamath Falls Indian library.

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.
