Projects Of Students Are Well
Organized And Well
Supervised
EXCELLENT WORK DONE

The Home Ec. course of the Oakland
High school is carried on in the house
located on the street opposite the man
building. To all appearances this build
ing seems more like an attractive
nome than school building The ar
rangement and atmosphere of the in
terror convinces anyone that this is a
model building for a group of girls
studying home-making in all its
phases.
On the first floor are the living
room, dining room, kitchen and two
sun rooms land, indeed, the adjective
we'll describes these sunny abodes).
The living room is tastefully fur
nished in maple and certainly looks
conducive to reading and recreation.
The spacious, well-equipped kitchen
mas instant appeal for most of the
girls. There they try out their theories
of cooking. This room is often the
scene of many activities, especially at
those times when the Home Ec. girls
are preparing banquet or refresh
ments for parties or for their own
guests.
A large classroom, where the girls
study the theories they put into prac-
s1ice in the laboratories, is located on
the second floor. The sewing room,
bedroom and bathroom are also on this
floor.
The work of the Home &c. course is
built around certain units of work,
such as: Food, clothing, child care,
consumer buying and entertainment.
The enrolment in this course is sixty.
The classes, averaging twenty, are d.
vWided into groups to work on the diff
ferent units in each class.
Two food groups, working on break
fast and luncheon units, are composed
aof girls acting as head cooks and as
@sistant cooks. The hostess group is
composed of a hostess, librarian,
AlOuSShSepCLS, NURSES anu d ulSGlCldIl.
The sewing group consists of head de-
4signers and their assistants.
Each girls within group performs
The specific duties assigned to her for
a period of one week. Then each girl
automatically rotates to the next type
Of werk. If, originally an assistant
cook, she next becomes head cook.
When one girl has completed six weeks
of work in Que group each enters a
new field of study in another unit of
work.
Thus, by the end of the year, each
girl has performed the duties of all !
phases Of housekeeping.
The hostess, whose position is prob
ably the most important, greets any
person coming into the building other
.1han classmates. She inspects the en-
Lire house after the various duties
nave been completed to see that they
have been executed satisfactorily and
aids the teacher in supervising this
work. During her period as hostess,
she completes some piece Of novelty
work and adds touch of beauty to the

COMMISSIONERS MEETING

NOTICE is HEREBY GIVEN that
the Board of County Commissioners
of Garrett County, Maryland, will hold
its regular be-monthly meeting at its

Nor are members of the Senate either
awed or attracted by him to anything
like the extent of the Great Ameri-
cans" as they so often and modestly
call each other, of the inner White
House circle. Members of Congress at
this time are more impressed by the
Mayors, the Governors, the small mer-
chants and the labor lobby than by
Mr.. LASER. Nevertheless, thoughtful
men who reflect upon the facts and
grasp the political implications of the
Administration support, understand
that, unchecked, this arrogant little
agitator may easily be built up into a
far more menacing figure than he now
is. Continued support from the Ad-
ministration upon which he puts pres
sure, together with backing by the
regular labor leaders, ultimately will
enable him to fashion from the relief
rolls a political machine of great
weight and power.
The politics in relief which Mr., Las
ser represents and of which he boasts,
is vastly worse than the politics shown
by the Senate committee and the poll
tics played by Mr.. Hopkins. 1t is the
most vicious sort of politics. In effect,
there is today a political tieup be-
tween the Administration and the
Workers Alliance which is sinister and
shocking. If Congress does nothing
else, it should end this. Fortunately, it
is easy to do. A single sentence in the
new relief bill, making it illegal for
anyone receiving relief to be mem
Der of any such pressure organization,
would do the trick. The situation is in
tolerable and indefensible.

Other Oakland High News

The Dramatic Club opened its doors
to all future actors and actresses of
Oakland High School by holding its
first meeting on Friday, January 13,
under the direction of Miss Fridinger,
the new director.
The club discussed various activities
for the coming year, these to include,
with the production of the usual long
play, several skits to be presented at
P. T. A., in assemblies, etc.
The club chose a comedy-drama in
three acts, "Where's Grandma" to be
their first production.
The freshman class's crowded condi-
tions have been somewhat relieved by
the addition of new teacher and class
room.
Miss Joan Ivy Steele, the new in
structor, is from Dagsboro, Delaware
Miss Steele received her ABB. degree
from Hood College in Frederick. She
is now teaching English and mathe-
mates to the &c and I'D girls and is
home room teacher of the &c girls.
The room which was originally a
storeroom, has now been reprinted and
furnished with new desks. 1t is stu
ated next to the art room in the Maffet
building.

Washington, Jan. 81.
1t being now clear that, stirred by
the cost, the waste, the inefficiency
and the political abuses of WPA, Con-
gress intends at this session to re-
model the system without, it may be
mentioned, any help from Mr.. Roose-
velt) there is one feature that should
not be overlooked.
The point has been reached where
something should be done about Mr..
David Sasser and his Workers Ali
ance. If the facts about Mr.. LASER
and this organization permeate to the
people there is little question about
the way they would feel about it. Par
ticularly would this be true if they had
had an opportunity to see Mr.. LASER
in action in Washington last week,
when he truculently accused Senators
of trying to Cheat down wages" and
intimated that if they did not yield to
his demands there would be a march
of relief workers upon Washington.
+**
The question thus raised seems
vital. Briefly, it is this: Is it in the
public interests that men and women
on the Federal relief rolls should join
an organization whose sole purpose is
to apply pressure to the Federal Gov
eminent for more money? 1t is hard
to believe that any sensible and posted
person will answer yes. Even in this
day when the principle of collective
bargaining between employer and en-
ploye is generally accepted and White
House tenderness toward the labor
leaders is unprecedented, the dangers
of applying this principle to the Gov
eminent and those whom it supports
with the public funds, appear obvious.
Yet, such an organization has not
only been recognized but encouraged
by the Roosevelt Administration. It's
leader, Mr.. LASER, is sympathetically
received at the White House and
highly euIogized by the Presidents
friends. Mr.. Aubrey Williams, as chief
WPA aide to Mr.. Hopkins, publicly
expressed the hope that every man and
woman on relief would join the LASER
union. Thus we have the astounding
spectacle of an Administration enthus-
iastTcally encouraging an organiza-
ton whose avowed purpose is to put
pressure upon it. Nothing quite like
that has happened before.
**$
In return for this, Mr.. LASER, now
claiming to represent 1900 "local
unions" with 100000 members, is an
avowed New Dealer and hundred per
cent Roosevelt man who says of him
self and his union, eve are in politics
with both feet" Wholly aside from the
fact that Mr.. Lasser's union" was
conceived and created by the Commun-
lists and today has a strong Commun-
list flavor, what this sort of thing
means is clear. 1t gives impetus and
Endorsement to the welding of relief
benefciaries into an organized polit-
ical minority with which Government
officials from President down can be
bullied. 1t FORCES an instrument with
which the relief burden can be riv-
eted permanently upon the country
and it's weight steadily increased. 1t
provides a weapon which can be used
to stage riots and hunger marches and
frightening demonstrations.
There is no desire here to eXagger-
ate the present size of Mr.. LASER. AT
this time, despite his claims and the
obvious White House leanings toward
him, he is a good deal of a buffer with
nothing like the power he pretends to-.
