The theme of the December school safetv poster distributed by the Chicago Motor Club is “Wear White After Dark.’’ Statistics show that most pctlcstrian fatalities occur after sundown, when driving visibility is at * minimum. During the coming months of winter, the shorter daylight hours will mean a Jrarp increase m the danger to pedestrians. The motor club urges that you alw.ns carry or wear something white when you are walking after dark. This <■!>!•'< t or clothing will be caught by the oncoming headkghts of autos which you can see long before they sec you.

HSRLTH LEISURE TIME WHEN Dionysius the Elder was asked if he was at leisure, he replied, “God forbid that it should ever befall me!” This ancient Syracuse ruler regarded leisure as idleness. Today, leisure time is considered a gift to be cherished. More and more people are gaining increased leisure as automation results, and the American workman today has more leisure time than any other worker in any country at any time. The satisfactory use of this time depends on the individual’s desire and ability to occupy himself. Leisure offers opportunities for service as well as recreation. The mind and body can be activated in voluntary service to others as well as to oneself. Avocations can be cultivated whole-heartedly. But there is also a danger in too much time on one’s hands. For unoccupied oldsters there could be the added incentive toward alcoholism, a carelessness in driving an automobile, a tendency toward overweight, and an indifference as to the future. William Cowper, the poet, said it two hundred years ago. ‘‘Absence of occupation is not rest, a mind quite vacant is a mind distress'd." By Mary Whitman “How many more days till we go to the loo?" or "How long till Bobby's party?” or “When's vacation?” a child will ask repeatedly. Lacking a sense of time and a calendar — all he can do Is guess. How can you teach him about weeks and months? The calendar sticker fun book, now available at local variety stores, is a happy anawer. It’s a kit, in playbook form. Any small worker can punch out pre-glued numbers and designs, wet them on a sponge, and stick them down to make his own calendar. He needs no scissors or paste. Holiday stickers are provided to put on for Hallowe'en, Thanksgiving, Valentine’s Day and other highspots. The final calendar is big and eolorful and can hang on his wall. "Even first, second and third graders enjoy this work" points out H. M. Benstead, Jr., editorial director of Whitman Publishing Company of Racine, Wis., world’s largest producer of children’s play materials. "And all grammar-schoolers will find it handy because it’s the first calendar designed for them.” Some parental help may be needed in supplying the child with a small standard calendar to follow, so he gets all the dates In the right places. Most youngsters can make the calendar in a week or less after homework. An alternate idea: a child can glue down a number each day. so that his important role lasts all year. Special center pages teach hixn to chart the seasons. He writes a date when he saw the first robin, flew bis kite, saw the first bug of the year. Chronicling these events gives him a sense of a year's cycle. Time will never hang heavy when he makes and marks up his own calendar.
