Health Aid Now Hobby of Woman Interest in Looms Fostered by Sickness Leads to Research. BY BEATRICE BI'RGAV Sorlftf Fdilor A PASTIME chosen as occupa- *• nonal therapy by Mrs. Guy H Shadinger had such curative and mentally stimulating power that the activity becam* bar hobby. The story of weaving which she described today at Indianapolis Branch, American Association of University Women, arts and interests group meeting. is a result of

enthusiasm with which she accep'ed the handcraft as a r-eans of recovering her health. Weaving didn't become just a means of keeping her hands busy; she became interested in its history, the means bv which races expressed their

imagination in the. designs they created, and in other individuals who. like herself, wove in self-de-fense. Arranges Lectures Asa result, she has a varied assortment of materials woven in many lands and under many different circumstances. She has several loom and has begun a series of lectures, to assist her in buying an antique Navajo loom which she is to present to the John Herron Art Museum. Dr. Shadinger, Butler University chemistry department head, always has been amused by the manner in which she obtained her large footloom. Mrs. Shadinger began raising goats to provide herself with their milk, and she traded a goat for a loom with a man who came to the door selling products he had woven. “Only one woman in a thousand would raise goats and only one woman in a thousand w'ho had a goat would trade it for a loom,’' Dr. Shadinger insists. Recovery Retarded Mrs. Shadingcr's recovery from an illness in the West, was retarded because of loneliness for her family. A friendly stranger, who de- ; tected the symptoms of a homesick j and discouraged woman, suggested that Mrs. Shadinger allow her to teach her weaving. Mrs. Shadinger grasped eagerly at the opportunity to occupy her time and thoughts, and during the re- j maining three years that she was away from her home and friends, she made scarves, bags and pillow covers. Shp worked on a table loom. As she pointed to the small frame- j work on a table, she explained. I made almost a hundred scarves on it. Some of the designs I copied from patterns; others I created myself" When Mrs. Shadinger returned to her home, she began tracing the history of weaving. After she presented a paper on the subject at a meeting of the Indianapolis Woman’s Club, invitations came to her from other organizations to tell her story. Engrossed in Patterns As she worked on her loom making coverlets, she became engrossed in the patterns shp was weaving. Occasionally her thoughts turned to others, who had expressed themselves in the same medium. She began collecting specimens. She bought paisley shawls, made popular by Queen Victoria; Navajo designs of Indians, who interpreted their thoughts in colors, coverlets in which middleclass women attempted to reproduce the damask hangings that draped the beds of royality during the William and Mary j period, and Oriental shawls—some designed by young women to prove their domestic adeptness. 'The path of weaving follows the path of civilization.” Mrs. Shadinger lias decided after her studies. “It always amused me to come back from the West to make a coverlet similar to the one I have which my great-greatgrandmother wove in 1808." Mrs. Shadinger has visited occupational therapy shops and observed the curative effect of weaving on cripples. She has gone to out-of-the-way corners to see some ambitious person creating things of beauty One old mat on whom she called had made his own loom, whittling thp parts from twigs, and used threads torn from a burlap sack. a a a Mrs. W B.

Camp Fire Girls to Have Busy Days Repairing Toys for Christmas Gifts

L. > Jr <• ?!• | • ... . yjjl

Looking over the first collection of broken toys which are to be mended by local Camp Fire Girls, Thelma Anderson. 11. thinks it will be a pretty big job. The toys are stored in the basement of Thelma's house, 4846 English-av, until a storeroom can be found for the organization's annual toy shop.

BY HELEN LINDSAY IF a magic wand could be waved over a corner of Mrs. Harry E. Anderson's basement, 4846 English-av, Thelma Anderson, 11, wishes she might wield it. In such a fairy-tale happening, she is sure she would see the discarded toys there take on new forms.

The dangling arms of dolls would be tightened; wagons would have the necessary wheels, and toy engines would be resplendent with new paint. Btit Thelma doesn't have a lot. of faith in magic wands. So she is preparing for busy days with other Camp Fire girls, during which they will repair the toys themselves. tt tt a I Christmas day they are to be distributed through vari- ! ous local social agencies to unfortunate India na.polis children | And the sound of the happy ! laughter brought by those toys : will be magic, enough to satisfy | any Camp Fire girl. The stored toys are the first in j a collection which annually exceeds 10.000, gathered as entrance fees to moving picture theaters in special shows preceding Christmas. For six years, this Camp Fire activity has been a project of the local groups. Aft.pr the toys are collected from the theaters, they are taken to an empty storeroom, which becomes the toy shop in which the girls work. Sometimes repairs j continue until the night before Christmas. For several years, the girls have had the aid of Charles Henegan, 351 Hanson-st, aged carpenter, who has donated his services. This year Mr. Henegan is unable to assist, and the work is to be done entirely by the girls, under the direction of Miss Helen Nichols, Camp Fire executive, and Miss Mary Alice Purves, assistant. ana EACH group is to have a certain day on which to work. Individual girls are to use their own initiative in making over the toys. Dolls’ faces are to be re- | painted; furniture is to be mended, and missing parts on automobiles, wagons and mechanical toys are to be supplied from others too dilapidated to be repaired. The more exacting work is to be done by older group members, while the smaller girls are to be occupied in painting furniture and toy trucks. When the dolls have been repaired, they are to be taken home by members of various groups, to be redressed from j materials donated by local stores, j Each girl who donates services . to the toy shop is to receive Camp j Fire honors. Only one toy ever has defied the : resourcefulness of these amateur I workmen. It was a wooden meI chanical doll, which was made in 1914. After careful examination, j the girls admitted they could not ! mend the broken mechanism which would make the doll walk ■ as it did when it was new. The j doll was made into a door sign, | | which since has been used over the toy shop. a a a LAST year a magnificent rocking horse made its appearance among the toys. It, needed to be repainted: that was easy. ! But more than that, it needed a i new tail. With the aid of Mr. Henegan. the missing tail was supplied from a piece of frayed rope, and Christmas morning . some little Indianapolis boy rode j triumphantly on the wooden animal. Last year it took four tricycles > to make two complete ones. But ! w hen they were finished, thev | were tricycles which really could I give service. The first shows at, which toys | were brought were held at 10 ' Saturday morning at the Tuxedo I and the Emerson. Mrs. Edvthe Hardy and Mrs. Anderson acted as doorman. Three shows are to be held at neighborhood moving picture theaters at 10 Friday. They will be at the Rivoli. the Uptown and the Ritz. Mrs. Florence Barnard, Mrs Wendell W. Phillips and Miss | Kathleen Klaiber will collect toys. | The final show is to be held at 10 : Saturday morning at the Tacoma. | with Mrs. Gladys Bevis in charge j °f toy collection.

Women in Opportunity Conference Survey of Possible New Fields Is Launched at Lafayette. 7 Sprrinl LAFAYETTE. Ind . Nov. 26 —Survey of possible new fields for trained women seeking vocations was begun here today, at the conference on Women's Work and Opportunities held at Purdue University. Representatives of eight other midwestern institutions joined with Purdue women students in the conference sponsored by the Women's SelfGovernment Association, student organization. The conference is to clase tonight. Througn the medium of 10 different discussion greups, led by outstanding authorities in respective fields, students were enabled to take\ up in detail the opportunities in various types of work. Keynote of Conference Keynote of the conference was sounded at the opening dinner last night, by Mrs. Chase Going Woodhouse. Institute of Women's Professional Relations managing direr- | tor. and national Altrusa Club presi- | dent. Woman's choice is apt to determine what is going to become, in an I age of mysticism, collectivism and authority, of a feminism that was developed in a world of rationalism, individualism and democracy." Mrs. Woodhouse said Democracy is the form of government which has been kindest to women" Women must play an intelligent part in public affairs and the maintenance of a middle of the road democracy, or suffer thp loss of her economic position. Men and women are not competitors. What the world needs is more production and not, less. We must learn how to | work together for equitable production and proper distribution of the production." Mrs. Woodhouse listed, among possible occupations for women, positions as hotel managers, with food manufacturers and in public | utilities. Beauty Money Value “Business has discovered the money value of real beauty.” she said. “Consequently, there is an opportunity for woman to apply her artistic taste in such fields as industrial design and merchandising counsel. All indications point, to j new fields for the wpll-trained womJ an. provided she and the rest of us J will do our part as intelligent, par- y ticipants in public affairs.” Additional opportunities also are j developing for women in public welj fare, public health and housing, due \ to the increased activity of governj ment in these projects. Amelia Earhart Putnam, recently j named to the Purdue University staff as consultant on careers for women, spoke at noon today on j “College and Careers.” Discussional groups, which met in ; both the morning and afternoon i sessions, considered topics which included business, community organization and leisure time activities, 1 housing, technical vocations, volunteer service, health, home economics i in business, personnel work, management and industrial relations, social service and wilting. Following the discussional groups, Dr. Harriet E. OShea of the Purdue staff, assisted by student secretaries of each group, presented a : summary. Speakers, leaders, com- ; mittee chairmen and student secretaries held an evaluation meeting.
