Convene in CHICAGO
By the Associated Press

CHICAGO, July 21.-Many issues
awaited action as $50 voting dele
gates began their deliberations to-
day at the centennial convention of
the Evangelical Lutheran Church,
Missouri Synod. The delegates rep
resent more than 5000 congrega-
tions and eaching stations

Field, began with a solemn liturgi-
cal and musical service in Orchestra
Hall.
Urges Help for World.
In his Introductory sermon, DR.
Arthur Brunn of Brooklyn, N. Y.
second vice president of the synod
told the assembly:
IF we would not fail God, we
must remember that God has made
us debtors to the whole world
We must feel that the burden of
the worlds misery is our burden
We must understand that everybody
in the world is our brother and that
we are our brothers keeper
The Brooklyn preacher from st
Peters Church declared that in
present days I'VE need some very
plain talk about sin.
I'VE need to tell people that it is
a sin to neglect God and the worship
of God. ** We need to tell people
that it is sin to hate, to oppress
to abuse men. We need to tell
people that it is sin to break holy
marriage

Major issues to be considered. said
the Rev. j. w. Behnken of Chicago
president of the synod, include re-

DR.. Behnken said the Synod's Ma
tional Advisory Emergency Planning
Council would recommend, with
authorize ton of the Board of Di-
rectors. a program of world relief
for 1918 of approximately ST.

Wake Grandma
B by Sittef
BY RUTH
NEA Staff Writer

Are VI making a baby sitter
ou- of Grandma?
Judging from the number ct
letters I've had rom elder WOm-
en- during the past few years,
a lot of young married couples
would have to answer Eyes" to
that question.
Here is a part of a typical
letter:
my son and his wife have a
lot of friends and like to go out
and, against my will, I've been
elected as chief baby sitter.
"Sometimes they telephone
ahead and ask me if I'll keep
the children while they play
golf, 60 off for a weekend or
get together with a crowd of
their friends for an evening. But
often they just drive by and say
airily, How about keeping the
kids for us?' and I'm stuck.
Il don't like to refuse them,
but since they have money for
recreation it seems to me they
should put some of it aside to
pay a baby sitter when they
want to go out, instead of i'm
posing on me-"
The fed-up Grandmother
is right, of course. No young
couple has a right to make an

Revelers, Famous Male
d. Quartet, May Appear
Here Upon Request

Members of the Wilmington
Community Concert Association
will be glad to learn that the
artists committee for the asso-
citation has practically been as
sured a definite date for the
Philharmonic Piano Quartet to
play here this winter.
To see four grand pianos on
the stage of the New Hanover
High School auditorium, all
played by artists of national
prominence, Will be a new eX-
perience for Wilmington concert
goers. The quartet is composed
of two women and two men;
Bertha Melrik, Ada Kopitz,
John Scales, and Max Walmer.
Their program ranges from the
traditional Bach and Chopin to
the modern GershWin.
The Philharmonic Piano
quartet travels with its own pi
amos from town to town. A
specially built truck transports
the instruments and it takes
careful packing to get them in
without damage. Each piano
must of course be tuned before
each performance and allowed
to warm up for at least three
hours after each trip.
There have been many re
quests for the Revelers, prob
ably the most famous male
quartet of all time. The Revel-
ers are a recently reorganized
group that enjoyed wide popu-
larity several years ago. Will

Concert Series To Include
Philharmonic Piano Quartet

fred Glenn, basso with the orig
inal group, sings with the new
Revelers. The quartet is made
famous not alone by its per-
sonnet but also by the marve-
lous arrangements they use and
the originality OF their program.
1t is composed of Wilfred
Glenn. bass: Nino Ventura and
Glenn Burris, tenors; and Rand
Smith, baritone.
1t is interesting to note that
James Melton, famous tenor
and one of the original Revel-
ers. was so interested in the
formation of the new quartet
that he asked to be included in
the REORGANIZATION meeting and
to assist in making up the pro-
gram, arranging the musical
services, and advising about the
musical arrangements. After
hearing the new group, Mr..
Melton is most enthusiastic
about their program.
If you are interested in hear
ing the Revelers this year, call
concert headquarters at 2-2417
and register your preference
with one of the workers there.
The artists committee which Sc
lects the concert programs al
ways considers the public pref
erence and tries to appeal to
the largest number of people.
A definite hold date has been
made for Igor CORN, famous
baritone, whose concert here
several years ago was so well
liked. If the Philharmonic Pi-
ano Quartet and the Revelers
are included in the 1947 con-
cert series, & well-rounded
musical year is assured for Will

leaves are cut off, the bulbs
die. Better plant them with
later perennials whose leaves
will hide the following crocus
foliage and allow the bulbs to
mature normally. Even so, be
prepared to replace half your
crocus bulbs each year.
These early bulbs r usually
called the "minor bulbs" Their
flowers are so small that in
June they would hardly be no
ticed; but in their own season
they have no rivals for the spot
light, and gardens in which
they grow, give two or three
weeks more of garden beauty
to their owners.
The first major flowers of
spring are the daffodils, or mar
cissi, which blossom after the
crocuses, usually in March or
April. Daffodils are usually
planted in drifts, near shrubs,
or in woodlands; but even for
NAL gardens should have some
of these lovely flowers, to pre-
serve unbroken the sequence OF
spring bloom.
Tulips begin to flower before
the daffodils are through. First
there are species tulips, such
as grow wild in Europe; then
the highly bred early tulips,
most popular type abroad,
where their uniform height, and
brilliant c%olors, make possible
the planting of carpet beds"
long out-moded with us.
The climax of the bulb season
comes with the tall, late, giant
lowered tulips of the Darwin,
Cottage and Breeder types,
which bring to the garden q
greater variety of colors includ-
ing all the rainbow hues, than
any other flower family can
contribute. They flower in May,
and are capable of presenting
a beauty show which cannot be
surpassed in any later month.

In selecting spring Towering
bulbs for the home garden, the
date of their Towering is as of
much importance as the beauty
of their flowers.
The tiny white snowdrops
which in most gardens will be
the very first flowers of spring,
give as great a thrill as the
magnificent peonies, three
months later.
This pleasure may be obtain
ed by planting a small group
of bulbs preferably where they
can be seen from a window.
From such small beginning, in
a we'll planned garden, floral
beauty will unfold as the season
advances, the blossoms increas-
ing in size, number and variety
of color.
To provide this succession the
first three months of spring the
hardy blubs offer the easiest
means, since they require no
special soil treatment or protec-
ton, and are dependable in all
types of soil SO long as it is
well drained. For beginners
they are probably the easiest
of garden subjects to grow well.
After snowdrops come tn e
scillas and chionodoxas. Scillas
drop seed and spread, often
covering considerable areas
with their numerous blue flow
ers long before violets appear.
Chionodoxas are almost as pro-
life, with flowers of brighter
blue, some with white centers.
Crocuses, which come next,
are not so easy to keep with
us. They have white, blue, vel
low and striped flowers, larger
than the earlier bulbs; but new
er plant them in the grass, as
some books advise, unless you
are willing to let it grow uncut
until the crocus leaves turn yell
low and drop off. If their green

The United Association of
Journeymen and Apprentices of

dustry Of the United States and
Canada has become affiliated with
the Union Label Trades Depart
ment of the American Federation

"The Pipe Trade Union Label
will now be added to the official

Department" said |. M. Ornburn,
secretary-treasurer, "and we are
proud to have the United Associa-

The need for some method of
identifying work performed away
from the job site in shops supply
ing processed, pre-fabricated and
assembled pipe is self-evident. The
United Association having sole
and exclusive jurisdiction over all
work-on or off job site--in the
plumbing and pipe fitting indus
try should have an identifying
label. This work should be done
exclusively by men who are Build
ing and Construction Branch mem
bers of the United Association.
Unorganized men doing this work
should become members of the
United Association. Men in other
crafts should not invade this juris-
diction. Journeymen members of
the United Association who are
engaged in processing and pre-
fabricating shops should make
certain their work is labeled. When
pre-fabricated or assembled pipe
appears on a job site, then U. A.
men will know that the work has
been done under fair conditions by
fellow members. They will like
wise be assured that the work was
performed by craftsmen whose
only means of livelihood is work.

This job protection is needed be-

FIGHT FOR HEALTH

controlled more effectively.
1t also means being on the look
out for diseases of the. heart and
blood vessels, like high blood pres
sure, which are commonly found
i'm diabetes and which really are
greater hazard to life than the
diabetes itself. Finally we must
be especially careful about getting
too fat. Keeping the body weight
within normal limits is a kind of
Insurance against the risk of
developing diabetes, as well as a
number of other serious diseases.
It's difficult to expect people to
do these things necessary to halt
the spread of diabetes by them
selves. Many individuals need in
struction to avoid getting too fat,
and medical examinations with
urine tests cost money. A program
of national health insurance, such
as that called for in the Wagner
Murray -Dingell bill of last year,
would make it financially possible
for people to see their doctors
regularly.
Even before the enactment of
such desirable legislation, however,
there are things which can be done
by union members to help. They
can demand adequate health and
welfare clauses in collective bar
gaining agreements, setting up
medical service programs financed
by employers and controlled joint
ly by labor and management, such
as were described in this column
few weeks ago. They can also
exert pressure for setting up good
public clinics under the supervision
of health departments and hospit-
ais.
Such agencies can do much to
carry on an active campaign for
the prevention of diabetes, as we'll
as help in the proper treatment of
persons who have already contract
ed the disease.
