If you've eygr observed the enchanted expressions on the faces of children when they watch puppets, you'd have known that sooner or later someone would create marionettes especially simplified for the younger generation to manipulate. The credit goes to Raye Copelan, a woman who is completely sensitive to the emotional needs of children. “A puppet is more than a toy,” explains Mrs. Copelan. “It can actually help youngsters overcome shyness. and tenseness.” ; - » » = » RAYE COPELAN is in a position to know. She has worked with emotionally disturbed children in hospitals, orphanages and schools. Her puppets have proved to be important therapeutic aids. Puppets offer children the opportunity to express their opinfons and give vent to their inhibitions. Many a parent would be wise to sit in on the performance every now and then to hear for themselves just what their children are really thinking. It might very well be a revelation. ” ” s THE VALUE OF puppetry should not be overlooked as an art form, either. Just as you help your offspring to appreciate music by having them learn to play the piano or violin, so exposing them to puppets will increase their awareness of art. “Puppetry,” points out Mrs. Copelan, “is one of the earliest

to man. . “Not only were they used by

American Indians as representations of good and evil apirits, put they were also used by ancient Europeans in religious ceremonies.”

PUPPETRY MAGIC—Puppets enchant young and old alike. Besides entertaining, puppets actually help youngsters solve their emotional worries and problems.

Today with her husband, she has created a business within the short period of five years that is turning the toy industry upside down.

Mr. Copelan handles the business end, while his wife does the designing. The Copelans

look for inspirations for their puppets among the children of the neighborhood. They have also borrowed the beloved characters from Alice in Wonderland.

The Copelan puppets are celebrities, too. Such well-known TV personalities as Howdy Doody and Flub-a-Dub were designed by Raye Copelan, and have done much to establish

Arrange Furniture With Eye To Comfort, Effectiveness

ARRANGEMENTS of furniture in every room should be based on three vital considerations:

Group your furniture pieces to make them function comfortably, conveniently. Place the television set so ’ that it is easily viewed from

many angles in the room. Don’t isolate guests—arrange your furniture in conversational groupings to give each individual an opportunity to talk without shouting. Keep your arrangement decorative. Select a point of interest (a fireplace, a large window, the television set) and group your major piece around it, placing your furniture parallel to the walls.
