It is the Summer boys and girls who participate I know it well for It has been my home away from home for many years. Legend hag it that was found under a bush near there one morning and that I've been there ever since. This Summer I will be work ing at the garden as usual However, this year I will have title and a salary for my efforts.

Having just completed a one- year term as vice president of the Boys and Girls Club I was asked to accept the post of "house girl," which I had long hoped for. It will be the last step in the progress of my career at the Children's Gar den, because this job is at the top of the proverbial ladder. My job will be to check attendance, keep records, cut bouquets, answer the telephone, greet guests and supervise chil dren. At the garden the main theme is team work. It will also be my job to instill the elements of team work in the youngsters and teach them to have some pride in the garden.

To show them that together groups can make work like weeding iris beds, pruning roses, raking paths, cleaning windows, polishing brass and washing woodwork seem to be simple and easy task instead one that involves a great amount of time and energy. Object Membership in the club is open to any one, boy or girl, from the age of 8 to 18. The gardening staff tries to teach the students how to take a small area of soil (usually 8x10 or 9x12 feet), cultivate it, plant it. and raise the largest amount vegetables possible. Everything that Is grown Is taken home by the person who plants it.

Using myself as an example, will attempt to show the won derful progress a person can make. There was a period 10 years ago when I planted uneven rows, pulled young vege tables instead of weeds, stepped on the rows instead of between them, and ran at the sight of a mere earthworm. In the past few years, however, my garden ing technique has developed considerably. In the Summer of 194(5 1 was asked to compete against eight boys for the Butler Memorial Cup. The merits were based on excellence in garden work and all-around helpfulness.

1 won! Rewarded Last Summer I received the Perkins Honorarium for work done on the germination of sorghum seeds. Most of my time in 194il was consumed by the study of rose pruning. This topic covers the care of the rose plant, particularly the cutting away of dead and unnecessary growth. The results enhance the beauty and aid the productivity of the plant. I read books on pruning, worked in the spacious rose garden of the Garden, con sulted the rosarian there, and taught a class of 12 students selected from the Children's Garden what I had learned.

The object of this exhibit is to show a cross-section of vari ous periods in textile designs used in interior decoration. Both woven and printed fabrics are included in the display. Ky ELIZABETH Lira Inspired by the Brooklyn Museum costumes of yester-vear, Emily Wilkens has turned out a stunning collection of Kail and Winter styles to keep the college girl or young career woman attractively clad from early morning to the wee small hours.

In her showroom at 530 7th Manhattan, the well-known designer of junior fashions exhibited this week crea tions that will do the most for every type of figure. Stressing the fact that all legs look their best with a mid calf hemline, all of Miss Wil kens, dresses, except for a few dreamy formal dresses, were this length. With figure prob lems ever foremost in her mind, the designer keeps In mind the fact that some hips might need flattering, even In a pencil-slim era, or that some arms look better with than without sleeves, even though bare arms are smart. Flattering Lines The flattering components of the Emily Wilkens silhouette for next season include the changeless charm of the small round collar, the neatly moulded waist and delightful closeup detail. Skirts are both straight-and-narrow or full lines, usually ac complished with an abundance of unpressed pleats.

Flattering roundness to the hiplines is also achieved with crescent-shaped slits of pockets. Attractive for office or class room were the designer's 1950 versions of the "uniform dress." One of these, in beaver brown wool jersey, was softly tailored with elbow-length sleeves and matching velvet collar and belt, A lapis blue jersey in this style had black velvet trim. Emerald green wool made a basic dress with a flare, trim med with a bright plaid apache neckerchief and belt. Another basic model in checkerboard squares of black and beaver brown had dolman sleeves and a small turtle neck. This neck.

There were silk shirt-blouses cut as carefully as a Victorian gentleman's, with tucked fronts, starched white batwing or turned down collars and rhinestone studs. One of these in Parma violet and white check was combined with a swirling violet velvet skirt Television slacks with the fit of jodhpurs, of royal and black plaid wool or pussy-willow velvet, matched up with molded jersey tops or refreshing citrus hnen blouses which had a silklike sheen.

There are also those depicting the styles of the "Golden Age" of the English 18th centurv. Then, too, there are those of the succeeding 19th century styles of both countries.

Our own early American periods derived from those of Europe comprise a section of the group. The woven textiles include damasks, brocatelles, lampases and brocades, in which only pure sjlk is used. Ever since it was first introduced in weaving by the Chinese over 3,600 years ago, silk has always maintained its prestige, because of its sheen, lustre and strength, as the most beautiful and coveted of all textiles. Modern designs are also shown. The designs of the printed fabrics are both period and con- temporary.

They are printed by wool skirt with bright embroi dery of vari-colored yarns and ribbons above the hemline. This gypsy-like skirt was one the creations inspired by the museum collection. This was combined with a fitted off- shoulder top of black cotton velvet. Among other evening separates were a sleeveless black velvet bodice with "gates-ajar" collar and wide, wide skirt of beaver brown satin. Ribbed silk in changeable butterfly colors was used for several deceptively demure off-shoulder dresses with squared round portrait necklines.

Something of a reformer at heart, you want to see the world bettered for your living in it. You have a logical, analytical tnind; excellent, even shrewd, common sense: and are highly intuitive.

You seem to have a native talent for gauging tne temper of your times and know exactly what type of guid ance spiritual, practical or culturalthat is needed. You then proceed to supply it. Since you are good at argument, have a pleasant speaking voice and no trace of stage fright, you would make an excellent defense at torney or public lecturer.
