PENDENT CHILDREN. BLIND

Jacksonville, Fla. June 10
With Florida's public assistance
program now well leveled off to
come within appropriations au-
thoriZed by the last session of the
legislature. Monroe County re-
ceived during the month of May
grants totalling 100000 accord
ing to announcement here today

lief was also continued through
out the state during the month.

res is expected during the fiscal

cations are that the number of
recipients of Old Age Assistance

amendment to the Social Secu-
rlty Act providing for the federal

HOLES IN WALLS
PROTECT INSULATION
Try Associated Pressl

LAFAYETTE, Ind. = Small
holes are a good thing in out
side walls of up-to-date struc-
lures, according to results of
study of insulating materials at
Purdue University. Keeping
such insulation dry IS one of the
problems of builders. Although
protected from rain, the. insulat-
ing materials are subjected to
wet vapors which form between
walls.
The Purdue experiments show
that vapor pouring over insula-
ton does not wet Ii seriously
unless the vapor is confined.
Holes in the outside walls per-
nit escape of the vapor and pre-
vent undesirable wetting. Holes
are recommended for outside
walls of refrigerator cars for
similar reasons.

URGES TEACHERS TO VOL

STRUcTION WORK

Tallahassee, June 18.-School
officials and teachers of Florida
were called upon today by State
Superintendent Colin English to
prepare plans this summer for
guidance of senior high school
boys in this time of national
emergency.
The first step, English said, is
for every person who has any
responsibility today in high school
education to analyze carefully
the meaning of the present world
upheaval for the 5000 boys VINO
will graduate from our schools
next May and June
Parents, teachers. and school
officials must unite as never be-
fore in helping these boys become
physically strong and equipped
with the understandings-an at
titudes so essential for a CONT
nuation of our democratic way
of life" he said.
Every boy is thinking serious
ly today of his place in the life
of our nation. The emergency
has brought technical skill to the
forefront in industry, aviation,
military service, agriculture, and
in all the ways of life which in
crease directly the strength of
the nation for purposes of natio-
nal defense. 1t is a time for every
citizen to consider the true value
of his own services from the
viewpoint of common welfare
and national efficiency" English
said.
The State Superintendent and
two members of his staff have
returned from Washington with
plans for use of vocational and
technical schools in the defense
program, and for preparation of
Institutional materials to assist
high school teachers and pupils
in science, mathematics, and
manual arts classes. Plans have
been made with the assistance of
officials in the National Office of
Education, the Civil Aeronautics
Authority, and the National
Youth Administration, with the
cooperation of Senators Pepper
and Andrews.
The Florida Association of
County Superintendent, at its
annual convention in Daytona
Beach this week, voted unani-
mouSly to sponsor the program.
They urged teachers to join this
summer in planning Institutional
materials. Teachers who can
