New Auto-Owners Must
Have Records In Good
Order To Get Gasoline

Not more than one out of five
new car-owners applying for gaso-
line rations h a his records in
such order as to make it possible
for the War Price and Rationing
board to issue coupons without de-
law officials of the board said yes
terday. There are from 10 to 20 ap-
plications daily and of these a
large number cannot be cleared
because of inadequate records.
In order to obtain gasoline, the
new owner must have the regis
tration of the car in his own name,
the tire record of the former own
e., and a receipt from some ration
board showing the surrender of
gas coupons of former owner. The
tire record and surrender receipt
are the items which give most
trouble and cause a great loss of
time both to the new owner and
the ration board. Purchasers of
ucad cars are asked to be par
tcularly careful of obtaining these
records so that applications can
be handled without loss Of time
to all concerned.

MANY TO HONOR
MOTHERS TODAY

One of Americas most senti-
mental holidays, Mothers Day.
will be celebrated generously and
lovingly in Wilmington today with
flowers and gifts galore and cpe-
cial services of tribute in many
churches and the USOs.
Florists and specially and gift
shops have been doing a brisk
business all week which increased
in tempo Saturday. Flowers Sc
lected ranged in variety from or
chids to daisies, roses and potte j
plants and everlasting wreaths
and potted ivy to be taken to GEM
eteries to mothers who live only
in memory. A downtown flower
vender disposed of his entire col
orful array in less than an hour.
With a wide array of gifts dis
plyed in shops, many mothers
will find a second Christmas greet
ing them at gift opening time.
Candy, perfume, lingerie and hose
were popular items, it was report
ed. Perhaps the most unusual gift
reported was a pair Of love birds.
Although no greeting kilograms
may be sent because Of the war,
money orders and gift checks
along with flower orders increased
the volume of Geographic traffic
at the local office.
An unofficial and limited poll of
some dozen mothers proved that
most women will not, however,
get their hearts desire this year.
Most mothers agree they want on
ly one thing: The war to be over
so their sons and daughters can
come home.
Among formal services schedul-
ed for today are the following:
The young people Of Myrtle
Grove Presbyterian chapel will
conduct Mothers day services at
Fort Fisher at 1890 o'clock Chap
lain C. Mueller will be in charge.
Mothers day services will be
held at the Myrtle Grove Presby-
terrain chapel at o'clock this eve
ming. The Rev. S. Wander Nicer
assistant pastor of the First Pres
byterian church, Wilmington, will
preach. Sunday School will be at
3 pm.

DonCossacks
In Fine Recital
BY CHARLES GENTRY

THAT MUSICAL martinez,
Serge Jaroff. brought his troupe
~ Don Cossack back TO pay their
annual choral visit here before a
packed audience in Masonic Audi
forum last night.
This original Don Cossack
chorus is still, to us, the best and
their program last night was
delightful one. including several
things which they have not offered
here before.
In the first liturgical group with
which they invariably open their
concerts we were most Impressed
by a mournful Elegy by Tches-
nokoff and simply exquisite ave
Maria" by Rachmaninoff, literally
a divine work.
There followed several varied
folk songs, among them the invari-
able "Meadowland," which has
become so popular in this country,
two romantic liads and a
strange and haunting fantasy
called In the Dark Forest"
The second part of the program
opened with a stirring medley of
infantry marching songs, sung and
whistled with great flourish and a
trio of folk songs by Gretchanin-
off. one of which. sung with muted
voices. proved to be one of the
most beautiful moments of the
whole evening.
OF course, the gypsy and Cos
sack songs brought the program
10 a spirited close and so en-
thusiastic was the audience re-
spouse that we can see why they
are making return engagement,
by request, next March.

of modern youth. Sociological stud ies appear to have brought forth the consistent conclusion that in- itial and final responsibility for the moulding of the character of youth rests with the home.
 While good and wise parentage may not be an absolute guarantee of the social dependability of children, facts go to prove that most juvenile delinquency is at tributable to parental shifting of responsibility to agencies outside of the home. It has been said that the ancient maxim, "Children obey your parents" has been changed to read, Parents humor your child ren, and send out questionnalres about .adolescents." Certainly, there is much evidence of the breakdown of parental authority, and of the freedom of youngsters to be on their own. While government has been extending the time during which children are economically dependent on their parents, the parents themselves have been les sening the time during which child ren shall accept parental author ity and discipline.
 Perhaps conditions are no worse than they were, except as war ex- citement has temporarily stimu- lated some youth to cut loose with a bit more abandon than usual. Be that as it may, the fact remains that parents are the ones best situated to mould the plastic minds of youth and lay the foundations of decent manhood and woman hood, and if they fail, then play grounds and canteens will accom- plish little.
