The bride graduated from Vallivue High School in 1971. in Caidweii Graduates receive Women operate realty business vocational awards The five persons employed at Classic Realty in Caldwell have something different going for them; they are an all woman operation.

"It just happened on purpose," Altha Bish, the manager of the business, said. "I hired all women because I decided women could show houses better than men." Since this decision was made in March, four women have joined her staff. According to the women, Marion Host was the first to join Mrs. Bish. Blanche Sevy and Irene Way were the next to be recruited and Carol Mappin joined the others inmid- July.

Mrs. Bish, who said she was the third woman to go into real estate work in Caldwell a few years ago, is the broker for the agency and the other women are saleswomen. To become licensed real estate agents, all had to take a course called Fundamental Real Estate and then pass the state board examination. The course is offered at Boise State College. To qualify to be a broker, Mrs.

Bish had to be a licensed salesman for at least two years, and take a number of college tests. After this was completed, she took another final test for brokers. The five commented that they did not feel their business had been hurt by not having men in the office. "No one has conveyed that they minded dealingwith just women, anyway," one of the group said. They saidtheyare dealingwith both men and women in the selling.

"The calls often times come from women," Mrs. Rost said, "because it is the women who are home and can make the calls. But both see the home and decide on whether to purchase ft or not." The walk-in business, those who come into office, is usually both the. man and the woman, the five 'went on to observe. Mrs.

Mappin said she felt it was a help to be woman showing a place to women, "because many women just feel more comfortable in the presence of a strange woman rather than a strange man." They all agreed that being women sales persons is a help "because women know what women want and need," Mrs. Sevy said. They said many sells are made or lost because of the kitchen and this is what women are looking at. The men look more at the foundation and things like this. One of the problems working mothers often must work out is dealing with their families.

Three of the women said they have children at home. "It isn't a problem with me because my kids want me to work," Mrs. Sevy said. "They say I am more interesting when I am working. Also, everyone shares the responsibilities at home, so that helps out." Mrs.

Mappin observed that she does find there is one problem with her present work and her family. "During the day my children are at a nursery," she said. "I pick them up at 5:30 p.m. and if I have to show a place that evening, which is the only time when many persons can see something, I have to do something with the children." Mrs. Rost commentedthatshe feels she is keeping up with more when she is working and this makes her a better wife and mother.

She said her children are "real trustworthy" so it isn't much of a problem. The four salespersons rotate the days they spend on office duty, working one day each week and splitting the work on Saturday and one other day. At other times, they are on their own to contact new listings and help customers.

Meililerranenn i and a i brai'kel. By Reno Pederson DALLAS (UPI) The First Day at School should be a treasured event, along the lines of First Bicycle, First Date, First Kiss. But if the child is not adequately prepared, it can be his "First Traumatic Encounter with the Establishment." "The most important thing is for a parent to show thatstarting school is a very positive experience, not an abandonment," said Joe Pitts, aspecialistinelemen- tary educationfortheDallaspub- lie school system. "A lot of today's children are rather isolated due to apartment living; they're hothouse children. Some parents just takethem right out of the nursery and plop them in school and it is traumatic for them," Pitts said.

Pitts said preparing children for school and pre-school should begin the day of the baby's birth as a part of proper child care. He suggested several key questions forparentsw-ithpre-school children to check theirpreparedness: Has your child had school life pictured to him in away that will make him think of it as a delightful adventure? Has he had enough association with other children that groups will appeal to him rather than startle him? Has he spent some time away from mother so that he has a feeling of independence? Has he learned acceptance of such responsibilities as dressing himself, handling small amounts of money and taking care of his personal property? "It is very important for the child to understand the consideration of the rights and feelings of others; he will get along with fewer problems," Pitts said. "For example, he should understand taking turns, respecting the possessions of others or sharing his own." Pitts said that many children are terrified when they are thrust into the school world and find they don't know how to eat in a cafeteria or use a public restroom. "Some children do not even know how to get home or where their father works andfeel abandoned at the end of the school day," Pitts said. "We suggest that parents take the child on outings to a cafeteria or to city parks or zoos to give him experience.

And he should spend some time in the homes of relatives or friends to get used to the feeling of being left and to learn how to behave away from home." Then there are minor things to make a child independent: teaching him to tie his shoes, cover his mouth when sneezing, go to the bathroom alone and to take care of his money, "We don't feel parents should try to teach the child to read and write at home so they can have a head start on classmates," Pitts said. "Often this teaching is faulty and It is harder to correct the faulty teaching than to just teach the child." According to Pitts, one of the most important is not threatening the child with being dumped in school or telling him, "just wait until the teacher gets ahold of you" or the child will fear both school and the teacher. Pitts said the parent also should have given the child enough experience at visiting so that when he is dropped off at school the child will not feel deserted. The child should also know how he's getting home and what to do in caseof adelay, like going to the office instead of wandering off. "There are so many general things, like teaching the child how to handle a book encouraging him to learn new words having a quiet place for reading in the giving counting experience with beans, spools and other simple objects," Pitts said.

"And parents should encourage the child to talk, to express Ms experiences." Pearson, Gloria Starr, Beverly Tracy and Maria Wasmuth.
