If you're planning to take Baby
along to the beach or cottage, by
all means include several extra
bottles of special baby oil in his
equipment. Baby's skin, you know,
is so much more sensitive than
grown-ups that very small
amount of sun can cause danger
Gus burns and discomfort. Before
exposing Baby to sun, be sure to
give his tender skin an extra coat
ing of oil. ---ss>~--7A-so~-~-~
Baby will enjoy his vacation
especially, if you remember to take
along a good supply of his special
strained foods. They're so easy to
prepare, too - simply warm his
vegetable or fruit and it's all ready
for feeding. By the way, many
doctors are now recommending the
three cereal idea for Baby. There's
a special strained oatmeal avail
able, a barley food, and also a
cereal food. All of these new
cereals have added Iron and Vita
Minis of the "B" complex group.
Just add little milk or formula to
the cereal and you have smooth,
rich, creamy food that Baby will
enjoy. It's the easy way to see
that Baby gets those added vita
Minis he needs for pep and vitality
- and a grand way to give Baby's
diet the variety it needs to perk
up his appetite!

Baby Hint
Most Babies love cod liver oil.
providing Mother doesn't show in
any way that she dislikes it. Give
it before the bath so that if some
is spilled it doesn't soil his cloth.

Mrs. Roosevelt
Calls For Democrat
Senator For. n. Y.

ALBANY, N. Y. (NNPA) -
Election of a Democratic Senator
from New York was advocated by
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt in her key
note address at the Democratic
state convention here last Tues
day.
Efforts of the Democratic party
to putt through Congress pro-
gressive measures which represent
the spirit of the party, she de-
clared, have been thwarted by a
coalition of so-called conservative
Democrats and reactionary Re-
publicans.
"That is why it seems to me
extremely important that we have
in the Senate of the United
States" she said, "men whom we
have known in this state and can
count on to stand on domestic and
foreign questions for the progress
sive Democratic point Of view"
Mrs. Roosevelt assailed Cover
nor Thomas E. Dewey's admins
tration of the Fair Employment
Practice Commission. She said:
'Much praise has been melted
cut to the Governor because this
state passed Fair Employment
Practices bill, but passing a bill,
which is good in itself, is not of
much use unless something hap
pens under that bill. / do not
think we can boast in this state
that discrimination in employment
is over. We do not have to pass
thank Heaven, an anti-lyncling
bill, or an anti-poll tax bill in our
state.
at is significant to note that
in the Legislature the Republican
Governor had solid Democratic
backing for his F. E. P. C. bill
The only opposition votes were
cast by Republicans.
Naturally | do not think there
has ever been any question of
where the Representatives in Con-
gress from the State of New York
stand on these questions, but we
are Jar from able to sit back and
think that because we have a Fair
Employment Practices law we
have a Fair Employment Prac-
tees law we have no discrimina-
ton either in opportunities for ed
ucation or opportunities for en-
ployment. l hope that this con-
vention will pledge itself to use
this law to better advantage in
the future.

Classroom Place to
Begin Fight OF
Race intolerance

RICHMOND - Urgi the
teachers of Lancaster and North
cumberland Counties, Virginia, to
start Immediately in their class
rooms to fight racial intolerance,
J. Rupert Picott, Executive Sec
rotary, Virginia Association for
Education, held that the school
rooms can be made the bulwark
of democracy in America.
Mr.. Picott who was addressing
the Teachers Institute at Wicomico
Church declared that the un-Am-
erican treatment of Negroes in
the South at the present time by
the Ku Klux Khan and other "fas-
cist" groups is a number one prob
lem in the nation demanding the
attention of every citizen.
Insisting that America cannot
set itself up as a haven of free
dom to the world while it prac-
tees lyncding in Georgia, Mr.. Pi,
colt maintained that the pathway
to permanent postwar readjust-
ment lies in the greater education
of the masses of Americans, in
GLIDING the white people of the
South.
Telling his teacher-hearers that
the first step in a broad attack
on the problem of discrimination
and racial maladjusment can be
taken by courageous and militant
citizenship education in the school
houses, the State Teachers Exc
cutive Secretary advocated more
education for social living in our
classrooms in 1946-47.
Mr.. Picott traced the background
of present day living and pointed
out the tensions between Russia
and the United States as indica-
tive of the kind of teaJling
needed for the development of
brotherhood at home and abroad
if we are to avoid another armed
/ conflict.
Mr.. Picott pointed to the grow
ing recognition by colored people
of the strength which they can
exert by being united as the be-
ginning of the fight which racial
groups must engaged in to main
tain their positions as citizens.
Stating that the first phase of
a comprehensive program for bet
ter social living lies in the pres
entation of suitable classroom ma
terials about tolerance and the
practice of democracy, Mr.. Picott
referred to the leadership now
exercised by the state teachers
professional organizations as a
hope Of better social living.
Said Mr.. Picott, funtional pro-
gram of education is the only kind
suitable for the challenge of these
atomic days. Continuing, he de-
clared that the mere teaching of
the "3 RS" or even Latin has not
and will not solve our problems
of living. A realistic" approach
in our classrooms that will lead
pupils to fight for local, national
and world democracy is the sort
of school curriculum we need and
want.
