hard-cooked eggs, salad or baked

All lunch boxes want FRUITS.
Vary the fruits for extra nutri-

quite an assortment.
Under DESSERTS you can
have quite a few surprise treats.
Tiny apple pies, fruit tarts, in

Dates, raisins, figs. plain candy

Godfrey Haggard, said the show
was permissible propaganda to
prove we are still doing business
during alterations.
Reports from France state that
the haute couture, or what is left
of it in Paris, is still issuing style
edictS. LAWN has heightened
skirts on all daytime dresses to
reach well below the knee. But,
with no American buyers on hand
to see the new Lanvin silhouette,
it's unlikely that we in this coun-
try will start letting out hens to
conform.
Certain French houses now
making their headquarters in
London aim to please American
trade.
But already the people of this
country are more interested in
American design than in foreign
name creations. 1t is quite pos
sible that former style dictators
will now fall in line with Ameri-
can fashion trends, rather than
set trends themselves.

ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT
BRITISH BLOCKADE

e
fleets, one at each end of the
Mediterranean, have seen to that.
But if Gibraltar or Suez could
be pierced, the raw materials
from North Africa and South
America could be shipped into
the Axis countries. Machinery
and manufactured goods could be
sent back. JobsI Food
From the Axis point of view. it
would seem that Gibraltar should
be tackled with the stronger
force, although a holding attack
should also be delivered against
Suez. That is already under way.
Now Spain fits into the pic
ture.
Spain has the land position for
gun emplacements ringing Gil
braltar and the British fleet re-
pair and supply base lying under
the rock. Spain'S FlangistS are
in the saddle. Their cry is
Gibraltar for Spainl" They're
starting a navy and a merchant
fleet in a 10-year program under
Franco. Thousands of German
troops are openly quartered in
Spain, presumably for rest. Spain
was once the mother country for
all South America. Down there
Spanish is still the primary lam
guage. Blood ties still are strong.
In all this, there are the max
ing of Axis plans. If Spain should
join up, she would afford, first,
the ground positions for long
siege of Gibraltar, and, second, a
funnel for Axis penetration of
South America.
Presumably the Axis would at
tack Gibraltar from the air, and
try to capture the stronghold,
but the essential job would be to
neutralize Gibraltar. That is,
make the fleet repair base too
hot for the British fleet, force it
out, either eastward toward NAL
ia and SueZ, or westward into
the Atlantic.
That brings us to Dakar. When
the French sent a flotilla out of
Toulon, the British let it pass
Gibraltar, bottled it up in Dakar
and struck. "a
Dakar is the one fleet supply
and repair base on the West Afri-
can coast between Capetown and
England. Until now it has been
in French hands. If the Germans.
by some stroke of strategy or
luck should deprive the British of
their Gibraltar base, the logical
headquarters for the Gibraltar
fleet would be Dakar, for the
run to England or Capetown is
too long for a flotilla trying to
blockade Gibraltar.
There, at Dakar, it could prey
on Axis shipping running the
gauntlet of a Gibraltar under
siege.
These are the highlightS of the
story. In addition there are ques-
tions of African empire. colonial
prestige, and morale, but they are
side issues at the moment.
The battle of the Mediterran-
can is primarily a battle for life
lines, not the least OF which is
the lifeline between Axis powers
and South America lifeline
that is now cut by the British
navy at Gibraltar.
Your Uncle Samuel is watch
ing the battle for lifelineS like a
hawk. You can bet your bottom
dollar on that, for South America
comes under the heading of the
Monroe Doctrine.

Communist Activities
Investigated

In an attempt to place the COM
munist party on the state ballot,
petitions have been in circulation
for several months throughout the
state. In all places as well as in
Coolidge, many signers, when in
terviewed, said they didn't know
what they were signing, many OF
the signers were relief recipients
and thought the petition, pertain
ed to that relief measure.
In order to qualify for place
on the ballot the communists are
required to file petitions with the
Secretary of State bearing the
signatures of 1000 electors, every
effort was being made to acquire
that number with misguiding
pamphlets and other persuasive
measures, which are now being In
vestigated to protect such slgners
from further fraudulent practices.

dug out sand bags to prevent their
homes and business establishments
from being flooded. Coolidge also
had some of the rain but more
wind came our way. Power service
was interrupted several times for
brief intervals, the main trans
formers at Picacho was hit by
lightning, plunging Coolidge into
darkness for more than an hour.
Recent rains caused water to flow
over the top of Diversion Dam
above Florence and the Gila river
was running bank full. The main
canal broke and was the direct
cause of flooding Florence. Many
fields were flooded in Eloy district
and cotton farmers claim they
have all the needed moisture

1t Comes Once To
Every Parent
BY Supt. wesley Kirby

This morning while enrolling
kindergarten children, had oc-
casion to talk to parents who were
placing their children in school FOR
the first time. l was curious to
have their reactions.
During this enrolment, l recall
ed a statement written to me by
my brother who is Director OF
Teacher Training and Secretary OF
the State Board of Education In
the State of West Virginia. His
graphic description of his feelings
upon sending his child to school
for the first time l feel would be
of interest to all parents and
teachers. am submitting it for
publication asking the pardon OF
the public with reference to a
member of my family.
at comes only once: Sending
the first child to school for the
first time. Memories of walking
the floor at the hospital while wait
ing word from the maternity de-
liver room, so far as this child IS
concerned, are gone. Hopes and
fears aroused by sickness fade.
The weight of previous years are
forgotten and the ones of oncom-
ing calendars bear down. Any re-
membered marital unpleasantness
is blotted out and the parents are
drawn closer together. A child
has crossed the threshold to try
the uncertainties of life. Epitomlz-
ed, as it is said TO occur with a
drowning person, before the par
ent's eyes flashes the scroll OF
time and inscribed thereon are his
experiences with the child, the
tender as we'll as disciplinary re-
lationships; the parents desires
and prayer for the future blaze in
living fire. Will the child attain
the aspirations of the parent?
'In the school room for the first
time the parent watches his child
perform. Will Tin this case) she be
able to master the elementary
reasoning processes before her?
The parent feels that he is on
trial. The material in the little
being is part and parcel Of his
own. Will he through her make
good?
How do you as teachers meet
these timid newcomers? Are they
Just another group in another year!
Do their increasing attempts to
express themselves in language
and musclar coordination, irk you
! These are they who will take over
our affairs; who will beget and
teach our grandchildren; who will
manage our businesses; who VIII
be our professional men and Wo
men tomorrow. What and how
shall you as teachers, contribute
to the organization of their minds
the development of their bodies
and the perfection of their outlooR
to assist in their greatest success

II, 1888.
