and Teachers.
Members of the d. G. Congress OF
Parents and Teachers are becoming
increasingly alarmed over the de-
pletion of the ranks OF men in the
custodial service Of the public
schools, who have been called into
military service and have gone so
far as to register their feeling in
this matter with the director of the
Selective Service System for the
District of Columbia as we'll as with
other authoritative sources.
1t may not be generally known,
but most of the men who are in this
vital part of the school system are
Of proven integrity, and insofar as
the physical aspects of the build
ings are concerned are familiar with
the peculiar situations that exist in
many of these buildings, such as an
tiquated heating systems. 1t is due
in large measure to this knowledge
and its intelligent application that
many of our older buildings have
been kept in operating condition
and some major disaster avoided.
Another angle is that these men
are thrown into daily contact with
school children of all ages; If they
were not of the highest caliber,
some very distressing things may
have happened which would have
brought SORROW to y,napv bo,ISeholds
And, too, most of the men so en-
ployed are in the middle or late 30s,
almost beyond the draft age limits,
and naturally would be of little use
as combat troops. The Parent
Teacher Association feels that these
men could perform, in fact are daily
performing, a far greater service
for their country in maintaining
the schools of the city at their pres

American Girl Scouts Contribute
Over 81 Thousand Dollars To Funds

Scholarships in Girl Scout leader
ship have been given to students
from Latin America and Europe
who are interes led in developing
the Movement where it has been
destroyed by the Nazis.
It is sad but probably true that
global war; global trade, and glo-
bal relations generally will never
be more than words on paper to
most of the men and women who
were young when the Age of Flight
was just beginning. Our hopes for
a better world order must rest on
the boys and girls who are taking
ocean-spanning for granted as they
grow up. Today's twelve-year-odds
are quite capable of accepting in
ternational problems in their stride
as they accept stratosphere flights
and undersea warfare. All they
need is the opportunity to learn
about and use the forces that can
bring nations together in friendship
rather tina combat. And the young
sters are eager to begin. This is
not just theory, but fact. The Girl
Scouts, largest girls organization
of its kind in the country, has for
years dedicated February of the
Scout year 10 International Friend
ship.
We have made a good start if
we can train million young wom-
en- to make intelligent decisions on
world problems. But for a country
with fifteen million girls from sew
en- to eighteen years old, a million
is certainly no more than start.
The Girl Scouts Of Wilmington re-
port that many girls want to join
the organization but lack leaders,
advisers, and meeting places.
Many of our clubs have meeting
places that they could open to these
girls. Many men and women have
a few hours a week that they can
share with them. Girl Scout In
ternational Month is good time
to Volunteer your services for the
future of America and the future
of the world.
