Sidewalk Sale Day Decatur’s Sidewalk Sale Wednesday went over as smoothly as any in its history, thanks to the very fine work of George Litchfield, chairman, and his fine staff of workers.. Retailers and cooperators were unanimous in praising Litchfield’s handling of the affair, which brought thousands of people downtown in Decatur. Many stores reported as much business this year as in two past sidewalk days put together. In addition, the entertainment was excep- ,j tional. While the rain dampened the parade, thousands still stayed to see the queen crowned, and to enjoy the festive atmosphere far into the night. In fact, the only dampener was the sorry spec- ->'■ taele the next morning, as papers and cups blew up and down the main street. It is understood that the water nozzle on the city street sweeper was out of order, and the city street department was unable to get the streets cleaned before business hours. Most of the merchants had their own areas cleaned up before 9 a.m., but from daylight until 9 o’clock the street was in pretty sad shape. The fine sidewalk sale recalled the great street fairs that Decatur used to stage, with all of the people — merchants, farmers and industries—cooperating together. Working together to make our common home, Decatur, a better place is a very high moral goal. It takes a lot more “Christianity” and Christian feeling to work together with others than it does to go your own selfish way. But it pays off. Those who cooperate well together are the type of people who get ahead in life. Those who don’t, eventually fail. The businessman who thinks of others first is the business man who succeeds, because others think of him. Yes, George Litchfield and his committee have done a wonderful job, and brought honor to the city of Decatur with the fine entertainment and parade which they helped draw together.

You, Your Child And The School

By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist Much advice concerned with helping children is aimed at the mother, but the father’s interest and participation in a child’s growth is particularly important. A father’s involvement in child rearing most often is affected by his occupation. His working hours, need for travel and type of position are all factors controlling his availability. These situations should not relieve him of responsibility or limit the value of his participation. It is difficult sometimes for a father to come home after a busy day and exhibit a pleasant, relaxed attitude toward an active child. It is important that it be done. A plan probably can be arranged so that father can rest a short while and then spend some time with his child. Surely weekends should include activities with the youngster. Problems Vary These types of problems are individual and naturally vary with different families. The difficulties must be worked out using good judgment and the understanding that a family needs a father. Let’s take a look at the actual role of a father. He is traditionally the head of the household. His approach can be democratic. A balanced approach using discussion And explanations, and firm decisions when necessary, is basically most practical and successful. All too often the father becomes a discipline figure. The

mother tells the child that his father will punish him when he arrives home. Sometimes the fa-1 ther encourages this himself. The child should not be led to believe that his father is to be feared. The child should know that both parents agree and are consistent. Many children look to their fathers as an idol. When young they often want to be in the same occupation. A father gets much pleasure from this. Many, children actually do follow their father’s footsteps even as they grow into adulthood. Firm When Needed A father can be many things to many different children. He should try to spend available time being a friend and guide. He should be warm, affectionate, and firm when needed. Perhaps one of his most important responsibilities is to be a consultant both to the child —A mother. His judgment should be sought. When both parents work closely together discussing plans and problems, the results are usually satisfying to all. The child receives more consistent treatment and gains a greater feeling for the family unit. There is little doubt that a father’s role is important to the growth of a child. The fatherchild relationship should be one of mutual respect and confidence. His involvement whenever possible is a must. Both the child and father will find a great deal of pleasure and satisfaction with each other.

Mass Transportation Musi Be Improved By DICK WEST United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) — Most of the great cities of America suffer from a chronic metropolitan malady known as hardening of the traffic arteries. It is generally agreed that unless something is done the nation’s urban areas will eventually succumb to an attack of thoroughfare thrombosis. IP also is generally agreed that the only solution to the problem lies in the improvement of mass transportation. , I am not aware of what measures other cities are taking, but I am pleased to rqsMrl fllfl M nation’s capital is acting wun alacrity, or, putting it another way, is forging ahead to a standstill. Seldom a month goes by that some government or private agency doesn’t bring out an illustrated brochure that provides an artist’s concept of a mass transportation system for Washington. Sent To Congress Copies are sent to Congress and the White House, where officials look at the pictures and exclaim “isn’t that interesting brush work!” Then the traffic department changes the direction of one-way streets again, and that takes care of mass transportation until the next brochure is issued. The feverish pace that has made Washington the top U.S. city in the development of mass transportation brochures already is producing beneficial results. For one thing, it provides employment for a large number of artists. For another, it gives motorists something to read while they are waiting for traffic to become unjammed. ! The latest brochure to come to my attention takes the form of a report to President Kennedy from O. Roy Chalk, head of the local transit company and leading builder of air castles. When Chalk comes to grips with mass transportation, he doesn’t fool around with any ordinary subway system, which the bulk of us commuters would be willing to settle for. Artist’s Concept Chalk's brochure provides an

artist’s concept of mass transportation by means of “pneumatic tube systems,” “ground effect machine s,” “superails,” “monobeams,” “hydrofoils” and “carveyorg.” I’ll tell you it makes mighty fine reading, especially when you are waiting for one of Chalk’s buses to show up. “I don’t know what President Kennedy’s reaction to the brochure was, but I’ll bet he liked it, too. I imagine he particularly admired the drawing of the hydrofoil, which looks something like a PT boat. As for me, my favorite is the “monobeam,” although I think that is a typographical error. I think chalk intended it to be “moonbeam.” I can see us all now, whisking around the capital, to and from the suburbs, on moonbeams. The use of moonbeams for transportation implies, of course, that we could only ride at night, which would be a serious drawback. But I expect someone will solve that problem in the next brochure. Cleaning Vases Soak tea leaves in vinegar, and then put them into the flower vase that has become discolored. Shake thoroughly, and the discoloration will disappear.
