All victory chicken growers
should purchase the best grade OF
baby chickens from reliable hatch
cries. The following steps are
important for successful poultry
production: Keep living quar-
tiers and feed hoppers clean. Rid
your poultry house of mites and
your flock OF lice by painting the
roost poles with Black Leaf 40
five or ten minutes before the
birds go to roost. Feed baby
chicks starter mash for four
weeks; feed growing mast from
the fourth to the twelfth week.
Scratch feed should be given
with growing mash-one pound
scratch to 4 pounds mash. Succu-
lent green feed should be kept
before the chickens. Feed fresh
buttermilk, this builds up the
chickens resistance against dis
ease. After the twelfth week
grain may be increased in the ra-
ton along with green feed, grit
and oyster shell. The backyard
poultry grower may use economy
by feeding his small flock fresh
scraps from the dinner table.
feed chickens at least twice per
day. Keep fresh water before
birds daily Do not give water in
tin vessels. Do not keep hens
over ~ years old. Replace
ROSTERS every three years. Keep
one rooster for Is hens. Watch
your flock continuously.

future operations.
The generators, mounted on
rubber shod vehicles, are highly
mobile and move about on the
beaches and terrain to the exact
spot desired for smoke coverage.
They have had plenty of actual
practice operational experience.
They Get the Message Through
Erecting advance communication
lines to forward observation
posts on the very edge of the
enemy's territory is the role under
taken by signal corps construc-
ton units like the Negro battal-
ion that for months has been
getting actual practice by erecting
lines for the British General Post
office, to carry war messages
throughout the United Kingdom.
The temporary field lines lead
ing up to the front lines are reel
ed off moving trucks, and when
it becomes apparent the truck
can advance no further into the
fighting area, the reel may be
carried forward by foot soldiers,
while covered by riflemen and
machine gunners. These lines con-
meet battalions and regiments and
combat teams with divisional head
quarters, so that the command
ing generals message goes through
to every unit.
As the ground forces move for
ward, other sections of the signal
corps battalion erect permanent
lines, like the 10? miles of tele-
phone lines one section construct
ed across English country side in
eight days. A secret to this speed
is the earth borer that drills
hole in less than three minutes,
and a flying cable operated from
the crane Of the truck that HOSTS
the pole into place ready for the
linemen to lay the wire.
Erecting lines is by no means
the end of the job. They have to
be serviced and kept in constant
repair. The cable splicers and re-
peater station mechanics are ever
on the alert, ready to check and
repair any spot on the whole cir
cult of wires. A line foreman in
this colored signal battalion is
T-Sgt. Paul Green of Philadel-
phia, and he, like a majority Of
the other soldiers in this signal
corps construction battalions, has
had civilian experience with Amer.
ica's large telephone companies.
All these Negro units work with
the assuring confidence that comes
from tough and thorough train
ing.

US. School System Faces
Greatest Crisis in History
.Selectlve Service Auxiliary Branches Make
Heavy Draft on Teaching Personnel;
Higher Wages Necessary.
By BAUKHAGE

Recently. the fate Of the Churchill

ers' salaries. The opposition threat
ened to defeat government-spon-
sored measure because it didn't pro-
vide TOR making women teachers
salaries equal to mems. The opposi-

harmony but the issue is not dead.

lament.
Any informed Englishman admits
that the American public school sys-
tenn offers far more to the general
public than the British system. At
the same time, our own school
system faces one Of the greatest
crises in its history and, likewise,
some of the greatest changes. One
simple reason for the crisis can be
stated in sentence: American
schools have lost 100000 competent,
well-prepared teachers since Pearl
Harbor.
Selective service and voluntary
enlistment have made a heavy draft
on the men. and you have no idea
how many WACs and WAVES, Ma.
rines and SPARS stepped out of the
schoolroon into their natty uni
forms.
OF course. high wages In industry
Iured many teacher from the three
Rs, too. And why not? The aver
age teachers salary is only about
$3.50 a year.
This year $4,000 teachers were
paid less than $3.50 year. That
wouldn't buy Stacks and "old fash.
t,neds" for a new-fashioned lady

Two hundred fifty-four thousand
teachers received under a hundred
dollars a month. My figures are
from the Journal of the National
Education association

been closed" says this periodical,
and thousands Of others are so
overcrowded that effective teach

Police Inspector Puts
Aura Of Romance in
Child Safety Drive

A bespectacled boy with gangling
legs stood on the stage and stared
at the floor. More than 100 children
squirmed forward on their chairs,
silently waiting for the shy boy to
give his answer.
Then. Inspector Dick Mansfield
called again: Come on, Jimmie.
Tell us what lovely girl you'll take
to the movie. Who's the lucky little
lady?"
Finally, Jimmie relented and
pointed to a plump blond with pig
tails. mumbling, Sally" AS Sally
ran UP to the stage and took her
place beside the grinning boy, the
children stood and cheered. Jimmie
suddenly became a hero in their
eyes-because he correctly answered
question on safety rules and won
two tickets to the neighborhood
movie.
Aura Of Romance.
Thus, the retired police ofiicer
created an aura of romance for the
9-to-12-year-olds g. as part Of his
technique in. making his safety In
struction a delight to school chill
dren Of Washington and nearby
Maryland and Virginia. BY inject
ing large quantities of "mirth and
humor," in the officers own terms,
he has knocked the kids OF their
feet" Any teacher will vouch for
his young audiences enthusiasm.
He has even been called Santa Claus
counterpart.
Cold statistics prove the effective
ness of the former vaudeville actors
warm message to youngsters. Last
year, the first Of a regular school,
visiting program sponsored by The
Star, Mr.. Mansfield performed his
chalk-talk routine before more than
$4,000 boys and girls in It's differ
ent schools.
During the school year of 1912
43. IA boys and girls were killed in
traffic accidents. Last year, only
five such deaths we're reported, the
best record In the District for many
years.
Inspector Mansfield was not salts
fed. Those five were five too many
This year, as the director of The
Stars school safety program, he has
intensified his efforts. The cartoon
lists one or two daily talks at each
school in the District and nearby
area have been rejuvenated by his
new play-"Main Street." whose
characters and rhymed dialogue
appeal to a youngsters imagina-
ton.
Garry Message to Home.
Most important, however, is the
new plan to carry the life and limb
saving message from the school into
the home. The parents are the new
line of attack, with this warning
Every day your child is exposed to
the risk of injury or death"
After children like Jimmie and
Sally have participated in Mr. Mans
fields play, which impresses them
with the five basic rules of safety,
they are asked to carry to their
parents a small leaflet, which is
distributed through the Parent
Teacher Association, explaining the
two-fold program.
An example of this appeal is: "As

q parent, you are ready-I know
to do anything you can to preserve
the life and good health Of your
child" Mr.. Mansfield has written.
Throughout the year, the young
people should be kept aware Of both
the dangerous hazards and how to
avoid them. I believe this can be
done-and done best by parents"
Parents are asked to enroll their
children in the Childrens Safety
Crusade to help them memorize the
pledge and encourage them to re-
cite 1t from memory every school
day. Mothers and fathers, particu-
larly, are urged to set good ex-
ample themselves by obeying. "in

and Jimmies do not realize that the
big, red-faced man In the blue police
uniform has saved some Of them
from a tragic accident. But they
do recognize him as their hero and
food him with fan mail.

would be no lack Of enthusiasm for
