Earns $125 Weekly By JEAN MEEGAN New York, Dec. 3--(AP)--EBEv. ery Saturday morning a five.year- old girl, topped by a big satin hair bow, emerges from the Jurly-burly of Manhattan's traf- 'fic and pushes through a brass door on Broadway to go to work. Robin Morgan, is a hard-work. dng, well-paid radio disc jockey. She is a colleague of such record spinners as Paul Whiteman, Ted Husing and Martin Block. The difference is she is a 40-pound package of light brown curly hair and one front tooth missing, She can match wits, stories, mild 'jokes and trick music cues with 'the best of them, "It's that missing baby tooth," 4 studio bystander said, "that re. assures me she's just a kid five years old." Robin gained her own disc joe. key show on the stremgth of her 'glib performance on the Mutual network's Sunday afternoon "Ju- venile Jury," of whieh she is the youngest member, New radio programs generally dre nurtured by advance publi.

That sounds like a fi. nancial wizard admitting he's never learned to count except on his fingers. The child is not a smart alee. Precociousness in her case has taken the form of poise. Her father, Maj. Matthew Mor. gan, is a doctor with the army of occupation in Germany. Her mo- ther is a corset designer in New York, y Robin greets everyone enthus- iastically by name, inquiries after other members. of the family, says something about the weath- er or mentions an adventure she has just had. On departing she kisses everybody, "Right now," she says, "I want to be a little Ingrid Berg- man; when I grow up I want to be a big Ingrid Bergman." Other children understandingly are shy of such conversational champion. Of her playmates she "They don't think of me as a star--which I really am not. I am jlust grateful to have my own show and be on "Juvenile Jury." .

Throughout the ages men have ga- thered around them in a spirit of | good -fellowship. Winter is here and your family will be gathering around the hearth. stone again, so why not plan to give your fireplace new interest? ere are countless ways of doing this, depending upon your personal pre- ferences and your purse. There is nothing more pleasing over a mantel than the convention- al painting, providing it has been well ehbse and of a correct size. Should you decide to splurge on a really good painting, treat it as an investment. Take your time in se- lecting it and buy the best you can afford. It will pay dividends in enjoyment over the years. A good landscape or seascape is a very satisfying thing to live with and will add distinction to your room. Try shopping your local artist. Who knows--you may discover a genius or someone who can make you an excellent eopy of your favor- ite picture in the museum. Your museum peoble can be of help in this connection, as they are usually in touch with the young artists of a community, Shadow Box Perhaps your hobby has been to collect lovely old pieces of china, figurines or other interesting small objects, If so, call in your carpen- ter and Lelp him design an over- the-mantel shadow box. This is an especially attractive way to display your treasures and keep them out of harm's way. The most attractive version of this idea we have seen was built in the wall, lined with mirror and lighted with indirect lighting. This was a permanent arrangement to house a collection of beautiful Chi- An Interesting Fire-Place Is Gathering-Place for Family nese figurines. Less expensive shadow boxes can be built to hang on the wall over your mantel. They can be lined with gold or silver pager or painted a color completnentary to the articles displayed. A pair of reflector lam placed on the mantel itself co spotlight the shadow box. Another interesting mantel ar- rangement has to do with the re- turn of the Chinese influece. Orien- tal cibjects of art are high style again, If you are fortunate to live in a city that has a Chinese quar- ter or a good Chinese art dealer, you can spend many happy hours examining his merchandise. You might consider using two lovely old Chinese ancestor scrolls over your mantel. Or ask to see some floral scrolls. / If your room is modern, frame these in bamboo or some other light wood. If your room is traditional and on the formal sice, use antique glass frames, choosing one of the predominating colors that will har- monize with your rcom, - Porcelain Plates A pair of old Chinese porcelain plates is another suggestion, These come in the most heavenly colors-- deep turquoise, dull reds and man- pdarin yellow. They are exceedingly handsome and not prohibitive in price. : Another way to give your fire- place character and beauty is to cover the entire breast of the man- tel with mirror. This is particularly good in a small room, as it gives the illusion of space. A gleaming ex- panse of mirror gives additional sparkle to any room and can be used with equal success in a mod- ern, 18th century or contemporary room, If you do this, be sure that whatever the large mirror reflects is of equal interest--lighted lamps are particularly beautiful when re- flected in a mirror. For Family A dull unused basement can be glamorized and used for many pur- poses. It may be made into a sec- ond living room, a playroom for the children, an indoor gymn, a hobby room for amateur carpentry, paint- ing, etc, a gardening room or a game or recreation room, an: in- viting social centre for the entire family and their friends, The recreation room, strictly a domain for fun and hobbies, can be as informal as you like and it can be given a lively inviting at- mosphere by the free use of color and design. It may be furnished with renovated castoffs from other rooms in the house qr with inex- pensive maple, pine, natural wood, chrome, rattan and unpainted pieces. If you want to be original, here is your opportunity. Start with the walls. Pihe panel them or apply a coat of whitewash and decorate them with murals, color- ful maps or prints. | Basement Makes Ideal Spot Fun and Hobbies A composition tile enlivened with inset games makes an ideal floor covering for a room of this type as it will withstand wear and tear and is easy to keep clean, Treat the usually small squatty windows informally, or, if there are no windows in the room, you may create an amusing centre of inter- est by painting simulated windows on the wall. Chintz, gingham or gaily flowered paper curtains can be used effectively. Built-ins, such as benches, book- cases, cabinets for storing games, and a refreshment bar are imuort- ant considerations in planning for recreation room. Also Shougs should be given to camouflaging the furnace, washtubs and pipes. There are many ways in which this can be ' done--wall-board built around them, attractive curtains of sturdy texture or decorative folding screens are means of hiding them from view. N. Oshawa, Columbus Guests of Westmount The regular Christmas meeting of the Westmount Home and School Association was held in the school on Monday evening. The guests from Columbus Home and School Association and North Osh- awa Home and School Association and the members of Westmount | were met and welcomed at the door by the president, Mrs. O. A. Weldon, and the vice«president, Mrs. Dave Adams. Mrs. John Jackson and Mrs. John Morrison then gave each a name tag with a Christmas seal in one corner. : It was announced that Mrs. John Jackson was the convener of the Ohristtnas Treat for the children. Two films will be shown to the children before they receive their bag of home-made candy and orange. Special attention was drawn to the January meeting which will be Father's Night, and all fathers are asked to show their interest in their child's welfare by coming The annual bazaar which will be held in the school this coming Sat- urday was discussed and all were asked to give their full co-opera- tion. Mr. C, A. Weldon was then called on to show the film, "Uk- fainlan Winter Holiday", which shows the customs of the Ukrain- ians at Christmas time. Following the film, Mrs. Lewls Griffin and Mrs. T. D. Thomas led the group in a Christmas Carol sing-song. Mrs, Griffin also sang a solo, "O Holy Night", accompanied at the plano by Mrs. John Morrison.

Webber of Columbus thanked the Westmount Association for in- viting them to the meeting, and assured the Westmount group that they had enjoyed the evening, The president expressed her hopes. that the guests would come to future meetings. Complete Costume Is Important ' New York--Never has the "com- plete ccstume'" been more impor tant. Every good designer is stress ing the ensemble look, and is show- ing costumes complete. The millin- ers are showing hats with costumes, to emphasize the importance of the "head-to-toe" look, and accessories must be in keeping. That's the "new look" and that's the way to achieve it. Handbag designers have antici pated this trend, and the fall bags aré beautiful examples of fashion co-operation. They fit into the trend toward feminity and elegance as if each purse had been designed for costume in your wardrobe. Mak- ers of fine bags have taken advan- tage of the materials that are now available, and have created a group of beautiful bags that are as prac- tical as they are tempting. Principal Addresses Champ Sons and Dads Special guests at the meeting of the Albert Street Home and School Association on Monday night were the members of the Senior boys' championship softball team and their fathers. The names of the champs are as follows: Ross Kee- nan, Barrie Morden, Alex Marcinek, Ross Twining, John Maule, John Landercock, Garry Graham, George Valentine, Ken Greentree and Howard Graham.

Broadbent and his topic was "As One Dad to Another", Mr. Fetterly sald that parents should organize their time so that nothing would interfere with the time they spent with their children, and that they should help the chil- dren with their studies. He maintained that a Dad and his boy should have a hobby and he pals and that if the parent makes the proper approach to the lad he'll have no secrets from his Dad. The father should gp trips away from home and take his and his pals, the speaker said, and above all should take, not send, the child to Sunday School. Mr. John Butler extended = hearty vote of thanks to Mr, Fet- terly. During a short business meeting Mrs. Ross Mowbray, president, an- nounced that the Association would hold a rummage sale at Albert Street Church on Dec. 9. Mrs. W. H. Gamble was appointed convener for the sweater fund. Miss Jean Imeson's class received the room prize. This was followed by a delightful program.

These were received with great enthusiasm. Mr. Ernie Laying made a hit with his old time songs and guitar accompaniment.
