"Sometimes we find a professional woman whose! services are very much needed in the community, and her child would also be eligible to attend the center," she said. "Before being accepted, each child and his family situation are studied by a social caseworker. Fees are charged according to the family's ability to pay." Funds Needed The Center is partially sup. ported by the United Fund. The remainder of funds comes from foundation grants, unsolicited contributions, fees, and special benefits.

Funds are especially needed this year because the Center is planning to expand to a Family Day Care Center. Care would make possible for many more children to be give supervised attention each day while in a foster home. The children would be selected and placed in a foster home in a geographic location near their home. Foster mothers would be carefully selected by. social workers and trained for the kind of work they would be doing.

They would also be paid. "We feel that such a program is certainly needed in the Pittsburgh area," Mrs. Peters said. Research by the Health and Welfare Department showed that in 1964 there were 21,170 working mothers in Allegheny County. Ann Landers Friend Won't Speak to Cook In Public DEAR ANN LANDERS: I am a 14-year-old girl who is trying to be a good person and act like a real yesterday and I need your My girl friend (I will from a wealthy family.

They have a cook and a maid who have worked for them for as long as I can remember. The cook is of a different race. In fact I will come right out and tell you she is a Negro. Yesterday I was in the drugstore with a girl friend. When I saw Marybeth's cook in the drugstore and I said, "Hello, how are you?" she was very plesant and answered me nicely.

After she left the store my girl friend told me I had committed a big error by greeting the cook as if she were a friend. According to her, servants should not be spoken to in public. We have never had any servants and my mother know about such things. She suggested I write to you. What is Dear E.

E. A lady speaks to everyone she knows. Your friend is not only ignorant but she sounds like a snobbish little pain in the neck. Are you sure you want HER for a friend? Dear Ann Landers: I am a 26-year-old girl who has a good job. I still live at home with' my parents.

They are very strait-laced and insist that so long as I live under their roof I must abide by their rules even if I stay here until I am 50. Sunday a friend dropped by. I used to date Jim four years ago but now we are casual friends. My folks like him a lot. Mom asked Jim to stay for dinner, which he did.

After dinner mom took me aside and said she and dad had promised to go see my aunt and that I should go with them. When I said, "I'd rather not," mom snapped, "We will cancel before we leave you alone in this house with Jim." I felt humiliated but I agreed to Now I'm furious with my mother for having "The Family Care arrangement would also help solve geographical and spemany, family problems," Mrs. Peters continued. "We would also be able to place children at an earlier age. The ideal situation would be to place children in a home with a young mother who has children of her own." New Facilities Needed To expand their services, the Louise Center would have to expand its facilities.

The Board of Directors is now considering a building project to accommodate the additional staff members and social workers which would be needed once the Family Service is put in operation.

D. Your Good Health Variation In Quality Of Hair By J. G. MOLNER, M.D. I have had excessively falling hair for years, and at 50 it is getting worse.

During my five pregnancies it came in thick and healthy, only to return to its former pattern two or three months after childbirth. Would this suggest a lack of hormones? "Are hair dyes applied at home detrimental to scalp or general health?" MRS F.T. se I WOULD HAVE to agree that hormonal activity might be part, but not all, of the explanation. However, I doubt that hormone treatment of any sort would help. There is endless variation in the quality of hair brittle, strong, heavy, thin, abundant, sparse, readily graying, or of durable color.

No way has been discovered to change the type of hair we have i inherited. Instead we nave to do whatever is best to maintain the kind of hair we have. This pattern of abundant hair in pregnancy, and a turn to hair afterward is not at all uncommon and is due to an increase in the body's general well being at that time. Trying to stimulate this vigor artificially (as with hormone applications or dosage) is not practical. Thus my suggestion is to be as reasonably careful of your hair as possible and make the best of it.

KEEP THIS IN MIND: Women do so many things to their hair that you must differentiate between shafts breaking off, and actual loss of growth. Under normal conditions, hair follicles vary in productivity. They can become dormant, and hair falls. Reactivated, they produce hair again. Yet other thinning can mean that the follicles are producing hair but it breaks off short.

Vigorous brushing can break off the hair. So can proper use of home permanents and setting solutions. (Follow directions exactly!) Tight coiffures can break shafts and also contribute to true hair loss. As to hair dye, a patch test should always be done first, to determine whether the skin happens to be sensitive to it.
