A Packed House
Turnout At
Dunbar Operetta

"The Land of Dreams Come
True" an operetta, staged by chill
dren of Dunbar Grade School,
Thursday, May 5 was attended by
an overflow crowd. Many people
had to stand in order to witness
the delightful performance of tots,
b e a u t ul ly coStumed, which
brought the house down in ap-
plauSe.
The cast was composed of chill
dren selected from kindergarten
through the 5th grade.
The play opened with group
of children enjoying a holiday.
Betty" one of the leading charac-
ters, refused to join in the fun;
when questioned she said she was
hunting for magic berries which
she explained when eaten by
mortals enables people to enter
Land of Dreams-Come-True. Betty
and three playmates swallowed
berries and soon fell into a deep
sleep. Eight pixies, with magic in
carnations throwing off star-dust
awakened the sleeping children and
led them to the Land of Dreams
Come-True where they met charac-
ters of Mother Goose and Old
Woman Who Lived in a Shoe
legends.
The closing scene found the four
mortals once more at the edge of
the forest still slumbering. Their
friends at distance call them and
finally awaken them. Betty and
her three associates are bewildered
by their abrupt re-entry into the
"everyday" world but thoroughly
convinced their adventure must
have been a dream.
After the closing scene, Mr..
Circe McClelland, acting principal
of Dunbar School, extended ap-
probation to the large turnout"
for their presence and encourage
ment to the children who took part
in the operetta.

About the Square Compass Crippled Cdens Clinic

Last July during the polio epi-
demic a group of Masons who had
been doing crippled children's work
was called upon to provide quart
ers for Physical Therapy, very
vital part of rehabilitation treat
ment, required after an attack of
polio and in fact many other Grip
pling maladies. There was no
money available at the time to OBJ
tain quarters, which proved to be
a difficult task. However, quarters
were found and the clinic started
operating the first of August, 1913
This group of Masons then decided
upon complete investigation of
facilities for child Physio Therapy
in the Tucson area and soon found
that there were none available.
Further investigation disclosed that
there were better than four hun
dred children in the Tucson area in
need of Physio Therapy. After
every known qualified organization
was checked and no duplication of
this treatment found, this group
decided to organize a non-profit or
ganiZation to build Physio
Therapy Clinic, that these children
may obtain this necessary treat
ment and rehabilitation. They set
out to obtain the necessary land
which was acquired at 1900 East
Broadway on a twenty five year
lease for one dollar year, renew
able upon the payment of dollar
a year thereafter. Then the labor
unions were approached, where our
program received an enthusiastic
welcome the unions agreeing t o
furnish all necessary labor. The nee
essary X-ray equipment was then
sought and obtained fran our Fed
eral Government without cost. Nee
essary plans and so forth were sup
piled by Blanton & Cole at super
visory cost, which was very normal.
Plates and cuts for our brochure
were contributed by Tucson Photo
Engravers. The entire advertising
layout and art work was donated
by Cabat-Gill advertising agency.
Several fraternal organizations have
offered to equip various rooms of
the clinic. Substantial amounts of
the materials have been promised
from our material houses.
Our organization is nav made up
of forty of our most prominent citi-
zens Twenty-Five of them serving
as Board of Directirs and fifteen on
the Advisory Board. This is strictly
non-profit organization no off
icers to receive any compensation
for their services. Each dime that
is raised with the exception of util-
tiles, postage and the like will go
into this clinic. There are no pro-
fessional promoters connected with
this organization whatsoever. It is
mae up entirely of local citizens
who are interested in the children's
welfare only. This Clinic will be
open to a II, regardless O race,
creed or color. The only qualifica-
ton being the need for treatment
one hundred and six children each
week, leaving some three hundred
not properly cared for. Our new
clinic will be able to care for ap-
proximately five hundred children
and according to responsible gov
ernment authorities it will be one
of the most modren and complete
Physio Therapy and rehabilitation
centers in the country. No detail
has been overlooked to make this
a treating center which all of Ari-
zona can look upon with pride.

All Youths Build
Nation Future
Dairy Herds

Production of milk for human
consumption is one of the oldest
farm enterprises. Yet today -
because of modern scientific re-
search and invention-it is one of
the newest and biggest of all agri-
cultural activities. There ar e
some 81 million dairy cows in the
nation. One of the detectives of
the National All Dairy Produc-
ton program is :. the building of a
successful dairy her1 from an
original investment in a All Club
calf.
Guided by county agents and 10.
cal All Club leaders, more than
$500 North Carolina boys and
girls are participating in this
learn by doing" 1949 project.
They acquire know-how to grow
fine pastures, build healthy herds
and produce good, clean, whole
some milk. Not content to stop
there, these future dairymen pass
alo:g their knowledge to the COM
munity by demonstrating at clubs
and meetings procedures such as
Dairy Cattle Management" Care
and Handling of Milk" n d
Dairy Problems on the Farm"
To further encourage Alters in
this 'endeavor, the Kraft Foods
Company for over a decade has
donated awards for outstanding
records. This year there will be
| gol-fiiled medal for first place
county winner, and a sterling sill
yer one for second place. Eight

scented to state winners, while all
