the material disadvantages of the job The salary is only $324 a month the first 6 months and $348 thereafter The girls work a 7-hour day (including the lunch periods) 5 days a week After two years they must quit It is thought that a longer employment would make the guides lose their zest because of the necessary' repetition of some parts of their talks to the visitors The age limit is 20 to 30 years Guides with dependants such as children or parents receive an allowance of $250 a year for a child or $200 a year for a parent But even with this extra pay girls with the capabilities and the personalities required would hardly find the remuneration exciting Before they begin their guide work there is an intensive 3-week course on the which requires hard study Every morning the girls have a briefing period on activities the day before and what is currently happening Between tours which last about an hour when the guides get a short rest in their lounge many use up this time boning up on information they might need The other day through the kind co-operation of Liu and his staff I met several of the guides who had been selected as representatives of the international character of this lovely corps Mrs Barbara Marques a blond Dane from Copenhagen Is married to a Spanish member of the United Nations personnel whom she met while on a holiday in the Virgin islands She is preparing

banker who now is with a financial institution in Manhattan All these girls and their 92 or so colleagues manage to meet any query with the most forthright and appropriate replies When Miss Tsagari was asked by a tourist in one of the council chambers behind those she replied calmly About the most frequent question the guides have to answer is where Nikita Khruschev banged his shoe on an Assembly desk That is a sort of taboo inquiry at the and may be responded to with a smile Serious question heard most often are about the efficiency of the in keeping the world at peace One of asked Miss Chang is the improving Replied Miss Chang: much as people are improving If a child of 10 could ask such a question he could understand this wise answer Another child surprised Mrs Mazumder by inquiring all these nations belong to the why do they have to have armies and Mrs Mazumder much moved told him gently the nations are not sure of each other They have doubts about each other But the is a place to talk things over and some day they will trust each We can certainly be hopeful if children ask such questions and we can be grateful that the has the guides who can give them such answers IT PAYS TO READ AND USE SUNDAY STAR ANT ADS MEsJfel Cth exclusive Royal dJ BOX SALE for BOYS T-- JTSI 4 Can't Silence the Posadas 3 CONVENIENT LOCATIONS: 926 Main 8302 Wornall Rd 5020 Antioch
