Knows From Experience :.
The idea for such a magazine
was developed by editor Helen
Valentine. She has a daughter OF
her own not many years out OF
her teens. Leaving an executive
job with another young woman's
magazine to create one for the
almost forgotten little girl, Mrs.
Valentine says she knew from her
own mother-daughter relation.

There's proof of this, all the way
from the medically sound article

which explain in simple terms such
issues as Breton Woods and Dunn.

served up to the teen-ager as
amusing features. Sometimes these
provide a double-edged weapon for
mothers and daughters.
Proof that mother gets her in
nings, too-and make no mistake
about that-are letters in Seven
teens heavy mail bags which say,

They wouldn't take it from US. -
Arbitrates Arguments
Teen-agers' squawks are air
ed at the rate of several hundred a
week, which a staff of teen-agers
reads, answers and selects for re-
print in its monthly letter column.
Full of parent-child friction which
hinge on such trivia as the first
date, the black dress, what an
allowance should be spent for, or
why shouldn't she have her own

a help to both sides. Picking it up

Local Boards Continue To Serve
Vital Purpose, State Director Says

Colonel Lawrence w. Long,
state director of selective service,
stated in reviewing the past his
tory OF selective service that with
out the help of the nations 6,4O0
seleetive service boards, the rapid
mobilization of the mightiest
fighting force in the world would
have been impossible. The vet
Grams are being discharged at the
approximate rate of a million and
a halt a month and the rate is
steadily climbing.
Where it was once the func-
ton of the local boards to select
men for military service, they
are nov charged with the respon-
sibil''y % assisting these same
men in their return to civilian
life. The magnitude of the job
facing selective service local
boards is obviously tremendous.
It's Importance to the welfare OF
the veterans, the community and
the nation cannot be overstressed.
Under the selective SYSTEMS
veterans assistance program the
local boards function is two-fold:
to aid the veteran in
obtaining unemployment in his
former position.
to inform the veteran of
his rights and privileges as a
veteran and how and where he
may avail himself of them.
The members of the local board
serve a third and more general
function-they use their good of
fees to stimulate the commun-
ity's awareness of the necessity
of developing job opportunities
in the community in the inter
ests of veterans generally.
The local board member is per-
sonally interested in the veteran,
having selected him for military
Service. More important, he is
familiar with the veterans rec
brd-knows his former job con-
hections and any new capabili-
ties he may have developed in the
service. This close personal re-
