Extension Offers Tips On Child Care' NEWARK, Del. - Working parents seeking quality after school care should read “A Parent’s Guide to Choosing Day Care for School Age Children,” offered by the Delaware Cooperative Extension System. A double-sided fact sheet prepared by Dr. Patricia Tanner Nelson, University of Delaware extension family specialist, the guide lists items to look for when searching for warm, friendly and flexible caregivers and suggests questions to ask when examining the building and programs offered “Good care is based on the mutual respect of parents and care providers, open communication and a shared commitment to the well-being of the children,” Nelson says. She advises parents to visit several centers with their children before making a choice and suggests visiting when the center is open and full of children. To obtain a copy of the guide, contact the extension office in Newark (451-2538), Wilmington (571-2284), Dover (736-1448) or Georgetown (856-7303). * i#1302 Woodbury WESTMINSTER CHIME CLOCK! 8 day key wind movement with Floating Balance (for ease of set-u 0 trouble free operation) chimes the WESTMINSTER tune on the quarter half three quarter and full hour After chimes on the full hour strikes the correct time 1 MAHOGANY FINISH CASE OFF WHITE DIAL ARABIC NUMBERS BRASS BEZEL THIS MODEL HAS BEEN IN THE SETH THOMAS LINE FOR A LONG TIME GERMAN MADE MOVEMENT 18x8’ ONE YEAR GUARANTEE' Suggested Retail $249 00 SPECIAL SALE • 149.95 Postpaid SWISS POCKET WATCHES - RRW/Q Quartz (Battery) *32.95 ppd' RRWI 7 jewel lever Incabloc - wind-up *44.95 ppd 1 #9317 jewel lever Incabloc • mini (men/ladies) *36.9s ppd' 193/Q/C Quartz (battery) mini (men/ladies) •29.95 ppd' USED Railroad Swiss 17J lever-full size *25.95 ppd' (All above are guaranteed tor 1 year Our DELWEACO brand') (All watches come with strap or neck chain (specify) NORELCO SHAVERS (Battery Operated) 2 Year Warranty #l3OOB- Latest Model Uses 2AA Batteries *24.95 Ppd' *l2OB - 3 battery model - replaced by above *29.95 Ppd> Replacement Blades for All battery models (sat cmpt) . * 10.95 Ppd' QUAD CHIME CLOCKS (Battery) Write For Brochures/Pricet KEY-WIND Chime Clocks Write For Brochure/Prices Complete Line Of Quartz Clock Motors And Accessories.
