Kindergarten Opens
Serving Both
Communities
The Lydia - Clinton Mills
Kindergarten opened October
4th for the 1956-57 year
under the direction of Mrs.
Edith Crisp, Lydia Mills Community
Director. Although
located in the Lydia Kindergarten
building, it serves
children of both Clinton and
Lydia Mills communities.
Mrs. Crisp said the kindergarten
is a school where children
are trained mentally,
physically, emotionally and
socially. Parents should not
expect children to be simply

they also will be given

True joy will be derived from
daily progress.
Each child must be brought
to the teacher, unless the
parent personally makes
other arrangements with the

be sent in alone, nor should
parents blow car horns for
children after kindergarten.
If a child has any indications
of a contagious disease,
they should be kept at home
until he has returned to
normal. This is necessary for
the protection of all children
attending kindergarten.
The fee for kindergarten is
50 cents a week. This is used
to help defray part of the expenses.
The payment should
be made regularly on Monday
morning of each week.
Children should not bring
toys or food to kindergarten
unless arrangements have
been made with the teacher.

THE CLOTHMAKI
Invest In Rest
Relaxation is an art. A
famous novelist said that
when she was a child she met
an old man who taught her
this, and it was one of the
m net imnnrtant loccnnc cVio
ever learned. She had fallen
down and cut her knees and
hurt her wrist.
The old man who picked
her up had once been a circus
clown. As he brushed
her off, he said, "The reason
you injured yourself was because
you don't know how to
relax. You have to pretend
you are as limp as a sock?an
old crumpled sock. Come,
I'll show you how to do it."
That old man taught the
children how to fall, how to
do flipflops and how to turn
somersaults; and always he
insisted, "Think of yourself
as an old crumpled sock.
Then you've got to relax!"
Relaxation is the absence
of all tension and effort. We
can relax in odd moments,
almost anywhere we are, and
be as composed as an old cat.
Have you ever seen a tired or
worried cat or a cat with a
nervous breakdown, insomnia
or stomach ulcers?
Plant Safety Is
Important To
Everyone
If we were traveling down
the road and came to a sign
in the road which read "Dan
ger ? noaci Closed ? tsridge
Out," we would not drive
through the sign and keep
going or believe that the sign
was for others but not for ourselves.
We would realize that it was
there for a warning for you
and me as well as others.
A good safety program is in
a way compared to the sign
in the road. It's for everyone.
It is a means to help keep us
informed, to teach us the right
and wrong way to do certain
things but will never stop us
unless we are willing to coop
erate. Of course, some in accident
prevention programs,
just as on the highways, still
go right on ignoring all that
is done to help them and eventually
turn up in first aid
rooms and even in hospitals.
Our safety program here at
Clinton and Lydia Mills is
planned and set up for everyone,
even those who have
never had an accident, and
those who never come close to
a machine. So please, help out
with it so that you and your
friends around you will not be
hurt.

Cotton Crochet*
Ladies, it's easy to add to
your fall wardrobe with simple
cotton crocheted accessories.
Collars, such as the
two on our lovely models,
continue as big fashion news.
These collars were beautifully
created for our models by
Miss Louise Cox of Clinton.
Miss Cox used the shell
stitch to crochet the throat
hugging style on the left, and
chose shells and sequins to
outline it. The scalloped

If materials have faded
from laundering, wrap them
in wax paper after dampening
for ironing. Then there
will be no danger of color
staining other garments or
the towel in which ironing is
wrapped.
Use dental floss instead of
cotton thread when sewing
buttons on garments iesno

be firmer, stay on much
longer.
Use penny lollipops as tongue
depressors on small children.
You'll get a clear view
of throat and tonsils without
much objection from the patient.
To keep paint from dripping
into your eyes when
painting a ceiling with a roller,
wear swim goggles for the

A child's drinking glass
won't slip out of his hands so
easily if you make it skidproof
with a strip of adhesive
tape placed around the rim
near the top. Not only will it
give Junior a better grip; it
also is easy to replace when
soiled or frayed.

door, the bread box
and the cookie jar a picture

about the size you'd like to
be. This should give you the

diet and remind you that you
must keep hands off.

You can convert a doubleedged

You can convert a widemouthed

useful bathroom decoration
by storing different colored
cakes of soap in the decanter
