Are you one of those adults who believes that more plain,
old-fashioned hard work on the part of students might bring
better results in the educational process? Do the students in
your household complain about how much home work the
high school teachers or the college professors are pouring
on? If so, give him these facts about student life in the Soviet
Union, as printed in a recent issue of Changing Times.
"Schools worked pupils so hard that home-work limits
were decreed as follows: No more than one hour a night for
the first grade, one and a half for the second, two hours for
the third and fourth, three for the fifth and sixth, three and
a half for the seventh, four hours a night for the eighth to
tenth grades.
"Now Russian parents complain that schools are exceed
ing even those hefty maximums. Ten-year-olds put in as
much as 10 hours a day on their studies. Fifteen-year-olds
grind away up to 12 hours. And in music and art schools,
the study day often stretches to 14 or 16 hours.
"In protest, nine doctors published an article in an offi
cial Soviet journal charging that the overload was hurting
the health of the Russian kids, and weakening their ability
to learn. So the Ministry of Education in one Soviet Re
public recently ordered schools not to assign homework over
Sundays and holidays."
The manager of a Texas (Dallas) department store re
cently decided to remind Texans of their belief that "we
can do anything." The man, Richard Baker, believed that
Texans should combat the business recession by adopting
the slogan "Texans, think up, go up; think prosperity, have
prosperity." "
Mr. Baker placed full-page color advertisements ki the
city's two daily newspapers. The ads were topped by the
word "Up" in Texas-size type, letters 11V& inches high.
In smaller type Mr. Baker's message read: "We at W. A.
Green's believe that only weak and negative thinking creates
fear and business recession and, conversely, that strong and
positive thinking generates confidence and good times for
everybody. So we say, 'Texans think up, go up; think
prosperity, have prosperity.'."
' According to the Christian Science Monitor, the results
were immediate, positive and startling. Mr. Baker told a
Monitor reporter that he had phone calls from all over
the region and that he had dozens of calls from Dallas'
residents who said they were "heartened" by the ad.
Manager Baker said he borrowed the idea from a friend
in McKeesport, Pa., who used it a couple of months ago
with good results.
Fortune magazine recently conducted a poll of some of
the country's top corporate executives and reported that
they were "composed and sure of themselves." The magazine
interviewed 165 business and banking leaders throughout
the country and then concluded "never before in the face
of a sharp economic downtrend has U.S. business shown
itself to be so composed, so sure of itself." The magazine
noted that businessmen have not been panicked 'by dis
couraging economic news and at the same time they reacted
with "skepticism, even boredom" to the official cheerful
ness that was coming out of Washington in mid-winter.
John Burns, RCA president said "People have plenty of
money to spend." Roger Blough, chairman of United States
Steel said "We had to expect- a leveling out at some time"
and Ralph Cordiner, General Electric president said "If
we have to lay off 300 people in Cochocton, Ohio, that's
headline news, but no one savs anvthine about the 274.nnn
people who are still on our payroll."
By chance Potpourri came out of Hedrick Junior High
school last Sunday afternoon (where we'd been watching
the square dancers) at the same time as did Lucille Lenox
and Octavia Waddell, and the former reminded us to drive
around and look at the magnolia tree on Almond street.
This pink Chinese magnolia, planted by the late Mrs: Tom
Kahler many years ago, is thought to be one of the oldest
and largest in the city, and when in full flower is a magnifi
cent sight.
The tree , is in the yard of 23 Almond street, now the
home of Mrs. James E. Burnett. The Clarence Keizurs occu
pied the house for many years, and Mr. Keizur, who still
lives in the immediate neighborhood, said that when he
"owned" the tree in 1920, it was quite small, but blooming.
He nurtured it carefully, and has enjoyed watching it grow
and blossom each spring throughout the years. The tree now
practically fills the little yard in front of the house, and its
hundreds of pinkish-lavender flowers are utterly entrancing.
.
The hostess at a party Monday night listened to the wind
blowing around the house corners, shivered and said "There
are three words I enjoy more than any others right now
Fair and warmer." O.S.

Spectacular Hats Needed
To Distract From Chemise
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Women's Editor
New- York (IP) Milliner
Victor says that this Easter
a woman needs a spectacular
hat. "Some
thing to draw
away from the
chemise," said
the designer
who makes
most of the
chapeaux
worn by the
nation's first
1 a d y. "T h i s
uay rauley vear hat mak
ers got their big chance."
A check of leading New
York designers shows the
spectacular is there, if the
woman dares. It's a rare hat
which isn't in bloom; in some
cases, blossoming into a whole
flower garden.
Even Mrs. Dwight D. Eis
enhower has succumbed; she
was pictured in newspapers
the other day in a pink and
red peony combination. Whdt
she will wear Easter Sunday
is a secret still. But hers was
a conservative bouquet com
pared with some of the florals.
Huge, pink to red poppies
cover the wide brim of a pink
straw in the Victor collection.
Milliner Don Marshall put to
gether an Easter bonnet cov
ered in- violet petals for Prin
cess Grace of Monaco, the
former Grace Kelly.
Plain Chemise, Fancy Hats
"Plain chemise, fancy hats
is the rule," said a spokesman
for the Millinery Institute,
representing the industry.
Some of the florals are
nothing but petals, set on a
light frame, and making the
head look like an outsize rose,
poppy or chrysanthemum.
Others are wigs or snoods
with the flowers attached to
a pliable, elasticized base
which covers the head like a

shower cap. Better check to
see how you look in a shower
cap before trying the wigs.
"Let's face it, not every
woman can wear them," said
Joseph Mann, at John Fred
erics'. One of the fanciest of the
wigs is at Mrs. Victor's; it's
a turban-like collection of
some 20 different varieties
including . roses, daisies, mi
mosa, and peonies. Other Vic
tor wigs are all white roses,
or white cowslips.
Marshall will run ud a wig
of real flowers for the cus
tomer who needs a hat just
for one occasion, and has the
wherewithal to pay. A hat of
real roses costs $125.
Veil Hats New Fad
Just the- ODDOsite of those
envelping wigs is a whole new
fad the veil hats which let
a girl's bouffant hairdo stay
bouffant.
The Millinery Institute calls
them whimsies. John Fred
erics labels them shells. Mar
shall calls them coif veils.
These are not the veils
which women have been ty
ing around their heads for the
past few seasons, but veiling
gathered to pull on the head
like a hat. Some have flowers
added; others velvet bows;
others rhinestones or pearls.
Some are "sized" or stiffened;
others have the regular body
of veiling.
They're available in all
price ranges, and are espe
cially popular with the wom
en wearing the new, bulky
hair styles which flatten un
der a weightier head covering.
"I have two types of cus
tomers these days," said Mar
shall. "Those who wear hats,
and those who don't.
"I sold 2,000 of those coif
veils in one week."
