WORKING MOTHERS: Some
times women who work outside the
home feel guilty that they are
depriving their children of atten
i tion and care. And this guilt can be
more harmful in their relationship
with their children than the fact
that they work.
Therefore, it's important to try
and alleviate guilt as much as
possible. And one way is for the
working mother to involve her
children in her work environment.
For example, she might want to
person ali/e her place of work with
^ pictures her children have drawn --
or with photographs of the chil
dren.
If possible she should take the
children to visit her place of
employment so they get an idea of
what Mom does away from home.
Perhaps the person who takes care
of the children can bring them for a
visit in the midst of a work day.
Some women need to work to feel
better about themselves. If they can
k. find ways to combine their working
' world and the world of their
children, they may feel less guilty
and in fact be a better parent.
KEEP LEATHER BOOTS LOOK
ING NICE - Those good looking
leather boots that are both fashion
able and practical these days won't
be fit to tread into spring unless you
give them a little attention this
winter.
For the good of your boots -- and
your own comfort as well -- treat
them with a water repellant.
Treat smooth leathers with mink
oil. Or. use a silicon treatment sold
at most shoe stores. On smooth
leathers, the wax silicon treatments
work better than liquids or sprays
because you get more even results.
Spray should be used on suede
though.
And be careful not to apply the
treatment too heavily. Keep in
mind that putting a water repellant
substance on the boots will darken
the leather.
And don't apply any of these
treatments on the boot heels be
cause it might damage them.
Besides these do-it-yourself treat
ments. there's the possible chance
that you might be able to get a
commercial water repellant treat
ment done at many shoe stores.
If your boots get quite wet. wipe
them off with a soft cloth. Then
hang them upside down for a few
hours. After that set them right
side up until dry. Never put leather
boots near an artificial heat source
to hurry drying. Drying too fast
makes the leather dry out.
So, the first rule is to apply a
water repellant treatment. Then
give those boots prompt attention if
they get wet and you'll still have a
fine pair of leather boots long after
winter disappears.
