rni&i. rfi *! thontar, Iom 2, IMS TBjc HeBXHST PLAIXDSALlB MetMist Cinch Hates NEW YORK--March S.--Teaching grownups to write like children is the job of a pretty girl from Georgia. I The purpose is to save dJilafs for retail stores by 'making sales sites so plain and clear that no mistake can be made, li a department store ever sent a "skirt" instead of a "shirt," ycmknow the value of plain writing. The girl in her early 20's is Madeline Rose Hosmer Brenner, and she's from Atlanta. The system of writing--or rather, printwriting --was started by her mother, Madeline Flint Hosmer. She developed her system of teaching while with the Atlanta division of the university system of Georgia. Applied te Retailing & It was applied to retailing when one of the south's largest department stores in Atlanta got Mrs. Hosmer to teach* their clerks to write. They liked it. They still use it. Saves money. War interrupted commercial expansion of the teaching, and after ' the war Mrs. Hosmer died. | The young daughter, who became Mrs. Brenner recently, took 'over, l&ere was a long interval of prep* Taxation until she introduced it on a nation-wide scale at the last con* | •ention of the National Retail Dry j Goods association in New York. j But a word on what it is. The j Hosmer print-writing system is based simply on bold straight line* and circles with only slight varia» Hons. An ?'0" is a circle. A "C" is " a half-circle. A "P" is a straight line with a half-circle. It's that easy for either upper or lower case, j ™ Taught to Children J It is the way they teach little diildren to write at first. There's1 nothing fancy about it like a flow-j ing Spencerian hand, but you call , read it.. Merchants whose clerks ( use it seldom send a "ball bat" j instead of a "bath mat" to a customer. ^ • The simplicity is what amaze#] most people. Mrs. Hosmer during war taught the system to sol* dlers who could read, but had neglected, for one reason or another, to learn to write at all. One soldier, after learning print-writing, told ] Mrs. Hosmer in all seriousness: "M>j I'd 'known writin' was just like; reodin', I'd learned to write a long ! time ago." j That same simplicity amazed the daughter when she started writing ! aTbcoklet on the subject at the end the war. Although s h« ^ "'just grew up with mother'#. print-writing." it took her 11 j months of writing and rewriting to perfect a straight-forward explana- j lion of a 36-page booklet of instruc- j . tions. . ] That booklet is the basic toot in the retail teaching system. Mr|,| Brenner reduced to the clinic levll the task ol teaching thousands of employees in a single store. She selects a maximum of 60 employees Tor training, usually supervisors. Waukegan.

PbyirwMl Coler Brheifie playground color scheme for children's playground equipment, which has been put into practice in Canada, is green and yellow. The explanation for this choice of color is that green is restful to children's eyes while the orange-yellow provides a quick vision contrast which indicates danger points. For this purpose, the advocates of this painting motif emphasize that yellow is the most highly visible of «tt colors, ° Un„lml| I'B- M-•--Cr l .
