Happy Homemaking
Families who are taking
small children on a vacation
should put a whistle, on a
cord, around the neck of
each child and teach each
child to blow his whistle if
he strays from the family
When taking children on
long vacation trips, take the
television trays off their
stands and put one for each
child in the car. The tray
serves as a desk and keeps
crayons, books, etc, from
falling to the floor each time
a corner is turned or a sud
den stop is made. Also, they
are wonderful for catching
cookie or cracker crumbs.

Tall crops cut visability at
intersections and increase the
possibility of accidents. Consider
motorists, and seed corners with
a low growing legume, and you
will help increase the visability of.
approaching vehicles.

By BARBARA BAKER
It’s a good idea to carry
shoe boxes, lined with alum
inum foil, in the trunk of the
car while on a vacation trip
When you stop in at a drive
m for sandwiches, milk
shakes, etc , place the food
for each person in a box
The boxes are especially
good as trays for the chil
dren
When traveling, keep a
large safety pm attached to
the lining of your purse. If
you slip your rings or watch
on the pin when you wash
your hands, you will not run
the risk of leaving the jew
elry behind
