The scene was particularly color
full, for in addition 10 the red,
white and blue service costumes
worn by girls and guardians (blue
skirts. white blouSes and red
scarfsl, the table decorations were
exceptionally attractive
Each year the groups compete fol
awards for table decorations, each
table appointment eXemplifying the
general theme set for the occasion,
which this year was Feeding the
Family" a project which the girls
nave Deen studying as part OF thelr
defense activities.
Tameluta group won the first
prize for its eXemplifica tions of the
theme, in which the girls used the
essential vegetables fer a Well-bal-
anced diet, making them into fig
ures which represented court
scene with the king and queen pre-
siding, attended by their retinue.
Luta came second, the table ap-
pointment illustrating fortifying
the family through Camp Fire by
means of the seven crafts of Camp
Fire. Using the V-for-V Victory sym
Dol as the base, the seven crafts
emblemS were grouped about the
essential vegetables, making an at

pOintment.

Mrs. f. K. Strong of Palo Alto
president of the California Con-
greSS of Parents and Teachers, with
Mrs. r. w. GreSser of Los Angeles,
state chairman of association goals,
was guest of honor at the seventh
annual convention of the 29th dis
trict of Parents and Teachers which
took place Monday in the BraWley
Methodist church.
Delivering the principal address
of the convention, Mrs. Strong, in
her stimulating discussion, outlined
the four main objectiveS which the
Parent-TeaCher groups have set
themselves, objectiVes outlined prior
to this country'S entrance into the
war but planned as defense objec
tlVeS ana Tor the rebWl ing OF de-
mocraCy at the close Of the war.
These four goals are nutrition,
since the draft registration has prov
en- the necessity of better nutrition
to remedy defects found and to
build for the future health of the
nations citizens; consumer educa-
ton, public health and morale.
In discussing tnis latter goal,
Mrs. Strong pointed out that NOR
ale building is no new task for
P.-T.A. members. Morale, she said,
is based on understanding and Spir-
itual tortitudc and the best way
to build it is to do something use
full.

that Parent-Teacher goals are as

than it has ever done it before, now
that the nation is at war, and must
eliminate all non essentials and

Sentials.

Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1942-03-26
Detroit Times)

The phrase social advances
as interpreted by the school of
administrative thought which is
most fond of using it, means spe-
officially a greater participation
by labor in the nations profits.
Wages consequently have ad-
vanced to the point where is is
difficult to mention craft or
trade whose scale of remunera
tion has remained at the same
level for a number of years.
Yet in the very citadel of an
administration dedicated to $50
cial advances there is a numer-
Gus, loyal, Jealous and proVerb-
tally efficient class Of workers
whose pay has not been raised
for II years; who cannot strike,
picket, boycott, agitate, lobby or
indulge in any Of the militant de
mands for higher wages that
mark the activity Of others dur
ing this generation.
They are the post office clerks,
civil service employees of the
United States government.
For II years this able, consCi-
entious and hard-working unit Of
labor has watched living costs
rise and wage schedules skyrock

Schools To Aid
In Employment

All Ohio public and parochial
schools will be asked to assist
the U. S. Employment Service in
registering all of this years
graduates who are actively seek
ing employment.
Registration will begin first in
the rural schools because they
close earlier, according to Wade
Hammond, USES director.
Last year 1928 of approximate
ly 1400 schools assisted the ser
vice in registering 29,941 gradu-
ates and 10000 of them found
jobs, according to Mr.. Hammond.
1t is hoped all schools will CO.
operate this year, Mr.. Hammond
said.
Boy graduates with shop train
ing can be placed Immediately in
war production jobs, those with
commercial training can be plac-
ed in offices and it is expected
many can be placed on farm jobs.

This column is always open to
criticism. The more the criticism
the better. Of course we like
praise too-that is only natural,
but perhaps we seldom write any
thing worth praising.
am no great shakes as a writ
er, but | love sports and | like to-
talk about them as much as pos
sible to as many people as possi-
Bile. Writing this column is one
way to do it. Nothing gives me
more satisfaction to write
sport column and to see it in
print gives me a thrill that |
wish all of you could experience.
Writing is fun-a relaXation-a
boyhood dream-a most interest
ing hobby. Therefore | always
want to do my best to make it in
teresting to everyone. | make
mistakes. | want to know about
them so | can correct myself and
not make the same mistakes "a
gain.
Just last week this column was
soundly criticised. And | want
to say frankly that | deserved
the criticism. Those who critic
ised were st. Francis de Sales
sport fans and they had every
right. | was informed that ev-
erything in my column was New
ark high school. Also | was in
formed that | never mentioned
St. Francis and their great cage
team this year. This is only
partly true. There are a few
facts they do not understand and
| am going to try and make my
self clear. There were several
factors involved as to why did
not have more to say about the
Irish in my column.
First, | want everyone to
know that writing for the Lea
der is not my livelihood. Second,
| am employed by Newark con-
Germ and work shift work. My
three shifts are: 8 a. m. to a p.
M; 4 .. m. to midnight; midnight
to 8 a IN. Third, by some queer
trick of fate this season | was
working the second shift, to II,
when st. Francis would be play
ing at home. Consequently, this
year | saw but two st. Francis
basketball games the least
games | have watched the Irish
play since | started to follow
basketball games. | wrote my i'm
pressions of those games in my
column.
Now of course you wonder if
| saw all the Newark high games
this season. And if | didn't see
all the game how was / able to
write about them if | didn't see
the team in action? For the New
ark games | have "spotter." He
tells me just what happened and
how. Also | know just about all
members of the Wildcat squad
personally, and talk with them
about the games. For the st.
Francis games | have no spot
ter" | knew only two members
of st. Francis de Sales basket
ball team this year, Reid and Tom
Duffy, and seldom do see them.

Fair Play in Wages

ct, without compensating IN
crease in their pay.
Their only recourse is to petit
ton the Congress, to hope and
wait for favorable action.
The petition has been made, in
the form of H. r. 6486, introduc-
ed by Congressman Martin
Sweeney Of Ohio.
The waiting undergone since
January %, when the bill was
introduced.
The hope entertained since the
measure was referred to the
House committee on post Off
ces and post roads.
But the committee has not yet
considered the matter.
No report has been made, fav-
orable or unfavorable.
No indications, in fact, made
as to whether the committee may
take it up, if at all.
While H. r. 6486 thus knocks
in vain at the door of congress
ional favor, H. R. 1857, another
measure providing increased SEN
iority pay for certain higher
grades of postal employees, is
having better luck.
The conference committee has
agreed on the proper legislation
and the proposal is assumed
soon to receive senatorial ben
sion.
Equity demands that the same
consideration be given H. R. 6486,
which is more general in scope.
Persistence in neglecting or
ignoring this bill would be de-
plorable callousness in a Con-
gress that talks so we'll about
"social advances" and reacts
with such alacrity to labor's de-
mands for a greater share of the
profit dollar.
The post office clerks also are
labor; labor that has actually
earned and is entitled to a
raise.
They have lawfully and in
courteous due form presented
their case.
Their work and their loyalty
in it are vital to the country's
communications.
They are highly trained, mark
edly devoted and hard to replace.
All these reasons, pointed by
the additional circumstance of
their Difference and reticence,
makes favorable action on their
claim a clear matter of justice
and equity.
To pass the bill is only fair and
wise economy.
