Introduced by Mrs. Henry De- Mille, Mrs. Stiles enlightened the assembled parents and teachers of the ways and means of UNICEF, It is not just the collecting of money, though that -is neces- sary, it is the opportunity to develop in pupils a broad con- cept of citizenship which recog- nizes the inter dependence of peoples and the importance of mutual understanding.

It's an excellent idea to paint these areas in light colors and to keep them well-illuminated. Avoid bumps and falls while groping in a darkened room by painting the light switch with luminous paint. You will be able to locate it easily then. Incident- ally, these paints are available in colors that match or harmon- ize with your wall hues, The importance of checking potentially hazardous areas in your home periodically cannot in Ottawa, first as private sec- retary to ministers of finance, defence, health and welfare, and later as the country's only female departmental secretary, were stimulating, exciting and enjoyable. "But I've had to make some sacrifices. Any woman who chooses a career instead of marriage and a family has to make them. Not too many women are ready to make these sacrifices." She says the biggest disad- senior position is this: "Because you are a woman, you have to be constantly try- ing to strike a happy medium between being as aggressive as you have to' be in order to do ig job well, and being shrew- ish. "A reputation for being a battle-axe never helps a work- ing woman." Miss Waters has never had that reputation. - Friends. and fellow-workers in the health de- partment say she is charming and diplomatic, but also a hard worker combining efficiency and firmness. SMILE LIGHTS UP She is an attractive, person- able woman with a slender fig- ure and a youthful face which lights up when she smiles. Her long career in the public service started suddenly in 1939. On the morning of Sept. 7, she was the young private sec- retary to J. L. Ralston, a prom- inent Montreal lawyer. By evening, she had left the Montreal law office forever and was in Ottawa with Mr. Ral- ston, who had been summoned by Prime Minister Mackenzie King to join the cabinet as min- ister of finance. "Mr. Ralston invited me out to dinner and right after that we went to work. We worked seven days a week, 15 hours a day, even on Christmas Day, until the war was over." Working for Mr. Ralston, who later became the wartime min- ister of national defence, put her in direct contact with the hectic life of Parliament Hill. She also served with Gen. A. G. L. McNaughton during his time as defence minister. lbe too strongly stressed.

But in the fledgling department, and later as it grew into the mammoth administrative serv- ice it is today, Olive Waters was to be an indispensable link in the chain of command. Responsible to the deputy minister and to the minister, she became the only woman de- partmental secretary in Canada. As the department grew, 'all her resources were challenged by the task of preparing the estimates for the departmental spending budget, now the third highest of all federal] depart- ments. Working with the estimates brought her right onto the floor of the Commons where she and the deputy minister sat in front of the minister's desk to whis- per details of the budget to the minister as he was questioned by Commons members.

You have read in bemoaning the passing of mo- tives for children to do chores 'at home and share in the drudg- eries and responsibilities there. These bemoanings run like this: In the pioneer home all the children naturally shared in the work there. They had to help in order to exist. They carried water from the spring or well, split kindling and filled the woodbox or. carried out ashes, But in the modern home there is no water to carry, no woodbox to fill or ashes to carry out--just nothing for a child to do. Nonsense! There still are beds to make, rooms to tidy up, furniture to dust, porches to sweep or scrub, potatoes to peel and other foods to prepare for cooking. Besides foods must be carried to the table and it must be cleared afterwards and the kitchen tidied up. If there is a dishwasher, somebody must stack the dishes and remove them later. There are lots of things in the average home which children can and ought to do, but rarely do. With all the modern con- veniences, the mother does most of these things in the average home; and as she gets more helping gadgets she takes over their operation more and more and the children do less. MOTHER TAKES OVER Fewer and fewer homes have maids, and when they have a weekday and the weekend off, as a rule, do the children take over then? Rarely. Their mother does. No sense in talk- ling about no chores for children in the modern home. These children are just not trained to take home responsibilities. Most parents are scared of their children who say: "Other kids don't have chores." Par- ents are afraid to be different from the rank and file of other parents. Besides, most parents have been brainwashed by pres- tigious writers to believe they should make very chore so at- tractive to the child that he will want to do it. Parents believing this have tried and have discovered that it doesn't work. They need to get the work done at home, so they do it themselves, finding it so much easier to do it than to get the children to do it. jteur theatre and music.
