NEW CENTURY CLUB

Mrs. Elizabeth d. Riggs was chair
man of the day at the Milford New
Century Club this week. II was AM

Samuel Caufman. the State chair
man was present. Mrs. Caufman Is
frCm Richardson Park. Also present
was Miss Ellen Samworth, of Will

Mrs. Caufman outlined her program
for her term as follows: IN To hold
fast to our American form of gov
ernment and the principles on which
1t stands; (2) To build up an APP
probation of what 1t means to be an
American citizen; (S) To bring
home to every parent the importance
of intoxicating love and loyalty Of
country in the minds of their chill
dren; az Loyalty in peace time as
well as in war; (5) To emphasize
craftsmanship by teaching citizens
their responsibility to their fellow
man. Miss Samworth brought to the
members of the club many angles OF
the true meaning of American citi-
zenship. Her place in life for many
years has been a teacher and II
seemed fitting that her stress upon
knowledge was the most important.
To know the fundamentals of the
in the study OF the Con-
stitution, to know the value of liv-
ing in a small but important state.
to know why and how to intelligent
ly vote. to know how to appreciate
the important information that
comes through the editorials of the
daily newspaper, to know that any
thing can be accomplished If the
courage is there and to have know
ledge and reason for alignment for
any particular thing. The impor-
.ance of kindergarten In all schools
md the value of home and school

worth also stressed. Citizenship be-
