Active in
Numerous Woys

Each year under the Smith
Hughes program in Home Econom-
les Education and in cooperation
with the Libby school district, the
home economics teacher is hired for
one week before the opening OF
school and another week at the end
of the school year. During this time
as many home visitations as possible
are made by the teacher along with
the opening and closing the de-
partment itself
Each girl taking home economics
carries out an Individual activity
during the summer. The purpose of
this is to improve in some Of the
minor and major problems which
they have studied in home econom-
les during the year and also to be-
come more interested in the fam
lily duties. These projects are writ
ten in story form by the girl and
handed in to the teacher in the
fall.
During Miss Grants visitations
this spring she found approximately
40 projects being carried on by "a
girls. LIE RlOJGllS llINluuCu SCWlI6
for self and family, child care, re-
decorating, cooking for the family
and helping to keep the home clean.
The girls in Libby high school
are to receive two years Of home
economics training. They study
units In clothing, sewing, home
nursing, child care, personal groom
ing, social grace, interior decorating
along with other problems which
might be confronted in the home.
All Of the freshmen girls, of which
there were "a, were enrolled in
home economics. Eighteen girls
from the other three classes were
enrolled in the second year course.
A new project Of teaching an ev-
ening class for the boys was sue
cessfully carried out. Fourteen boys
carried out this project.
Many Of the boys expect to make
practical use Of their Home Ec-
experience especially those who
may be assigned to forest service
lookout station or other isolated
post where they would be expected
to do their own houseWork.
The home economics department
is always willing to help any in
dividual with her food or clothing
problems if she SO desires.

has promised (and Danaher has NEVER broken promise) to up- hold our constitution and to de- fend our way of life.
 "John Danaher served in the first world war. He has two sons serving in our armed forces today. His opponent was only thirty six years of age at the time of the adoption of the Selective Service Act. The fact shows Danaher with an outstanding military service rec ord. His opponent has none.
 "Danaher's activities as a public servant have been marked with glowing success. First as an Assis- tant Federal prosecutor, later as Secretary of the State of Connec- ticut and for the past six years as one of the two most brilliant men- bers of the United States Senates. That is record of which any Amer ican can be justifiably proud.

He will fight to preserve our two party sys- tenn of government against totali- tarian state, He will always, as he has done in the past, fight for good, beneficial legislation for the work ing people of our state.
 John Danaher will always place the welfare of our country about the call of any political group.
 John Danaher is and will remain the best friend that has ever repre- sented our working people in the Senate of the United States.
 The brilliance, the integrity and the courage of John Danaher will be badly needed in Washington during the next six years.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-11-06

The voters of this state are not going to be hoodwinked into voting blindly for a man who does not even live in our state. The voters know John Danaher and they are going to vote in mass for his return to the United States senate tomor- row.
 "The greatest tribute that could be paid any member of the United States senate was paid to Senator Danaher when the newspapermen who cover the national capital, the one group of Americans who are in a better position than any other group of American people to know accurately apprise the qualit1ca- tions and abilicses of a member of the United States congress, voted John A. Danaher as One of the two most capable senators in the entire senate. A senator has to be good to rate that kind of an en- dorsement.

Bad Weather May Hamper RuroI Votes

Behlin, N. H., Nov. 6 = (UP) - A heavy snowstom was sweeping northern New England today-with eight inches of snow already on the ground at some points-and town officials believed 1t would hamper the rural vote tomorrow in several areas.
 The storm, bringing slush, sleet and snow across Maine, New Hamp- shire and Vermont, was apparently heaviest here where eight inches of snow was on the roads and fields at 9:30 a. m. (EWTD and it still was showing.
 At Houlton, Me, there was about two inches of freezing slush on the roads as result of rain and snow that began falling about midnight.
 At Rumford, Me, the streets were covered with three inches of slush and motorists reported great diffi- culty in driving into town from isolated far areas.
 In the Berlin area roads still were passable, but many wires were reported to have failed in Shell burne and Cascade.
 At Barre, Vt., there was three inches of snow and the storm show ed no signs of abating.
 At Newport, Vt., there was five inches of snow on the ground and it still was showing.

 Why has McMahon never told our voters why he was replaced in the Federal department?
 ''Is it true that shortly after MT. McMahon left the government serv- ice he purchased an apartment house in Washington, D. C., for $150,000 and is it true that he pur- chased a residence in which he lives in Washington, D. C., for $50,000 and isn't it true that be purchased a building lot in Washington, D. o., for another $6,000 If this is all true then the voters of this state have a right to know where MT.

To- the deep dissatisfaction of the people of this state the people learned that. as usual, MT. Mo- Mahon failed miserably in his pros ecution of the case and the record shows that not a SINGLE person was convicted of the charges to which MT. McMahon had directed against them.
 We can allow our minds so back to the Harlen county case in Kentucky and once more there was an abundance of evidence with which to bring about successful prosecution of that notorious case. With the government in full possess sion of vital evidence MT. McMahon was sent into Harlen county to prosecute that case for the govern
