Gilbreth, women of our times and of century. From her work and her home she has derived pleasure and knows achievement. She has given something to all of us, speaking of women. Though it may seem like a simple thing now because home plan- Dr. Gilbreth ideas and incorporating them in the newer homes, Dr Gilbreth gave us the revolutionidea that a homemaker is ary, entitled to an efficiently planned home, one that saves and steps.

Because of her, homes either are being built or being modernized to accommodate a laundry room on the first floor of a house. Dr. Gilbreth brought washing machine out of the basement to eliminate stairclimbing with heavy loads of wash. Dr. Gilbreth moved the sewing machine into the laundry calls woman's it-rather workshop than hav- as ling it marooned on the second floor, necessitating more stairclimbing in order to do repair jobs.

Not all of us have these conveniences as yet but most new homes have this kind of coordination. A Woman to Admire To me, the most astonishing thing about Dr. Gilbreth is her family, It has been said of her that she considered a year absolutely lost in which she didn't write a book and have a baby. Her children must have the same idea for presently there are 18 grandchildren. Two of her children, a daughter and a' BROOKLYN EAGLE, DEC.

31, 1948 Are Are I Sparkling Toast Is Favored Bubbling Wine Has Spirit of The New Year By ELSA STEINBERGER Food Editor A toast to the New Year! Though what to serve and how to serve it is' no problem to many, we must' consider others who perhaps are having the first party in their own It has been said that "trifles make for perfection--and perfection is We cannot always achieve such excellence but we do like to aim for the best we can accomplish. Eggnog is traditional for New Year's Day, but you will undoubtedly want something different for your New Year's Eve toast. Since this is usually a very, special, very gay time, you should serve something that gives a feeling of something special, something gay and sparkling, according to Harry Steck of the A. S. liquor store.

So he believes a sparkling beverage. "such as sparkling Burgundy or Champagne the most appropriate choice. Cocktails and highballs or anything else you choose are fine for any other time of the year, but for New Year's Eve it should be extra. Excellent Wines Most popular at reasonable price are the Lalanne Cie. Sparkling Burgundy and their Champagne, brut, 1943, both of which are but $3.79 for the 26- ounce bottle.

The Burgundy is excellent, and the Champagne of the great year 1943. Gallatin State is a good New York State Champagne for those who want one even less expensive than those mentioned above. This is dry and but $2.69 the 26-ounce bottle. Among the more famous of the imported brands are Dry Monopole (Heidsick imported by Park and Tilford, for $5.89 a bottle, Moet Chandon white seal, at Piper sieck, Piper Brut, 1941, at $8.67 a bottle. Right Glass Important Champagne is usually served in a 5 to 6 ounce champagne glass.

Those with a hollow stem show the sparkling bubbles to advantage, but the saucer type may also be used for serving sherbet and also (this is news to us) as a double cocktail glass. Brandy will be served in a small brandy or cordial glass (the large brandy inhalers are for leisure hours). We are told that the tall highball glass is no longer as popular as before. More people are getting the shorter glasses for this and using the tall ones for beer, unless they use the V. shaped Pilsner glass.

Although a colorless, clear glass is preferred by many, others like those made of tinted glass. When different colors are used, it is easier to remember to whom to return refilled glasses.

Evans read my complaint about those footcrowding tables that have pedestals instead of four legs and wants to throw in a complaint of her own: "Why do restaurant hostesses glance at the tired-looking woman who comes in at the end lof a heavy day, meaning me, and lead her to the corner -behind the pillar or the one where the door slams upon her as the waitresses move in and out of the kitchen? Or the one in the main traffic aisle where every passing person knocks her hat forward or bumps against her, including the waitresses, SO that her purse and all the accumulated impedimenta on her lap fall to the floor?"

Mary Haworth's Mail Up Can She Emotionally? Grow DEAR MARY HAWORTH -Is it too late, at 30, for a woman to grow up emotionally? I am married to a wonderful man who takes life as it comes, and so far as I know he has never let hatred of any kind enter his life, whereas mine seems to be based on it. I grew up an unwanted child, dominated by a neurotic possessive mother, and a few months after her death I met and married Tom.

We have been married for almost three years and in most respects it has been a very happy marriage; that is, happy so long as we are alone together and I don't have to share him with any one else, and this aspect of my behavior bothers me greatly. Mary Haworth I am extremely jealous of Tom and let my imagination run riot, any one he shows interest in becomes a target of my hate. He tries to reason with me, but this only adds fuel to the fire, and I resent his goodness when I am so full of hate and distrust. Life Is Joyless, Plagued by Fears It's come to a point where I am afraid to meet his friends for fear I will do or say something that will hurt Tom and brand me the jealous fiend that I am. I feel inferior to all his women friends, when in reality I am not.

I know I am their equal and yet I insist upon tearing myself apart to prove to myself that I'm not. Each time that I behave badly I promise myself it will be the last, but it never is. G. E. DEAR G.

4-6200 FOR IDEAS 9 A.M.-5 P.M. Comment Express Dancing Pupils Themselves Contemporary By RUTH G. DAVIS Society Editor The Studio for Creative Dance at 252 Fulton St. was the scene on Wednesday of a Christmas party that many parents wished they could have attended. The studio, as its title indicates, is a school of dancing under the direction and supervision of Trudl Dubsky Zipper and the participants in the party were the students from three and a half years of age to 13.

This was the first party to be held at the studio and the children had been told that they were to perform at their own will; in other words, they could do anything they likeddance, act out a fairy story, pantomime or recite. Although they really put on their own "show," they also were entertained by Judy Liebowitz of the Dramatic Workshop of the New School. Miss Liebowitz, who also is a student of Mrs. Zipper's, presented an original puppet show. It was a back-stage scene with acrobats, magicians and others participating in their rehearsals.

AMONG THE STUDENTS invited to participate in the party were Lois Alderman, Susan and Phyllis Altchek, Lida and Connie Cruik-1 Gilbreth, engineer and mother living, was named "Woman of that the choice couldn't have at least to me, is one of THE son, have done a book together, "Cheaper by the Dozen," which portrays with much good humor how Dr. Gilbreth and her late husband, Dr. Frank Gilbreth, raised their children. Father Gilbreth was the famed "time and motion" Among other episodes, book relates how the Gilbreth children had their tonsils out en masse as a contribution to their father's investigation of the technique of surgery. I have great admiration for women who are successful in business and who have remained completely womanly.

By that I mean, those who have not pushed aside marriage and children -when blessed with opportunity--in preference to career. When one looks at a woman like Dr. Gilbreth, now 70, the richness of her full life may well influence any woman who thinks she has to make a choice between the two rather than blending both. Cited for Work With Urban League Hortense Williams, educator and program assistant in group work at the Brooklyn Urban League, was among the 10 women named by Mademoiselle Magazine as 1943 merit award, winners for achievement in their fields. Miss Williams was cited for "bringing a new approach to social work." Also among the 10 was Grandma Moses, who at 88 has won the acclaim of the buying I and of art critics alike for her now famous American primitive paintings.

She was 76 when she switched from embroidery to painting "because moths don't get at oils."

As a matter of fact, your letter gives evidence that you are growing, painfully, right now. We find this evidence (1) in your expanding acute awareness that your jealousy of Tom, resentment of his amiable goodness, and your free-floating hatred of others are rooted in a complex of self-despising impulses, also (2) in your urgent desire' to control these negative feelings. There is potential health of mind and character implicit in that honest, open, constructive approach to the problem, and your stricken confession that you can't cope with yourself unaided recalls a proverb to the effect that it's a wise man who knows his limitations.

She was the organizer and director of the Manila Ballet Modern, which included 60 young people of 17 nations, while her husband, Dr. Zipper, was conductor of the Manila Symphony Orchestra: At present Mrs. Zipper also is a member of the faculty of the Dramatic Workshop of the New School, Manhattan. She is also an artist and did a series water colors of scenes in Manila entitled "The Conquering Heroes," for Fortune Magazine in 1947 and has recently completed a book jacket. Get Understanding of Undercurrents What you need is expert deep therapeutic help in ventilating by free discussion the destructive emotions felt, so that you may examine them objectively, in co-operation with understanding counsel, in order to see (1) what percentage is composed of "blind" rage or fear, seeping from a hidden reservoir of childhood hurts, and (2) what splinters of literal justification for rational indignation exist, in youf current dealings with grown-ups.

Emotional poise isn't a matter, as you may mistakenly think, of being invariably "sweet" tempered or blessedly free at all times from anxious, defensive, hostile, stresses. Rather it in a by-product of learning to use one's head. By your own admission, you carry such a chain of explosives into all your personal relations, and any aimless word, glance or move may start fireworks in your bosom that don't make sense in the actual present circumstance. However, "repression" isn't the solution; further, it's impossible. M.
