Resolution Campaign
Progressing

We are happy to state that the
Resolution Campaign is moving a.
long nicely. The local o Dig e
throughout the state are falling in
line in this all important effort to
increase our membership in the As
sociation and to increase our read
ers of the Echo We have received
communication from a large number
of Presidents that they will get their
new member and subscription in be-
tween now and the March Board.
There are others who plan to bring
their w member to the March
Board, however, the only new mem
bers that will count in this cam
paign, are those that were added
prior to the converting of the March
Board. No apple a t on that is
brought to the Board will be credited
in this campaign.

Lodge No. % is getting along nice
ly. The meetings are being presided
over by the Vice President, during
the disability of the Local President,
Rev. E. B. Blackman. The lodge is
happy to say that it has added one
new member during the Resolution
Campaign and plans are being per-
fected to get one or more subscrip-
tions to the Echo between now and
the March Board.
If the President keeps on improv-
ing, he will be able to make the
March Board and he states that he
did not know that his friends were
so many until ne got sick. He wishes
to take this method of expressing
thanks to all of those who have been

OUR UNIONS have been accused
Of Communism" many times in
recent years. Sometimes tn e
charge has not stood up under
close examination. At OF her
times, labor organizations have
faced the music and set about the
job of cleaning out dangerous,
un-American elements. A recent
decision of the CLIO rank and file
to clean house is an example of
the latter. Philip Murray and
others helping in this unsavory
task surely merit our full
support.
! Most of us little know what
masters the Communists are at
clever organization. They do make
good union workers. If they can
find a union whose leadership is
unframed, or members unin-
.erested, they know how to take
over. The Communists want to
use labor unions as outlets for
aheir propaganda They want new
recruits. Naturally, they want to
haze access to union funds. From

Carver high made a strong come
back after taking its first defeat from
St. Rose at Bay St. Louis. The Tor
nsdces took three wins out of as
many starts. The team journeyed to

The score was 20-12 in favor of

Wednesday night tn e Tornadoes
trounced Lumberton 1922. The girls
won their game 1877. Wilma Cor
dan, Clarice Weems and Lizzie DUR
played high point girls for Picayune.
The Tornadoes took one Of their
most daring games of tn e season
from Gulfport Friday night here in
a thriller from start to finish. Gulf
port started out in high gear with
an early lead 1913, but through an
unlimited amount of effort Picayune
was leading at the half 25-18. The
last quarter brought about a change
when Gulfport went ahead 41-40. A
free toss by j. T. Ferguson tied the
score Ali with one minute and
forty seconds to play. All the fans
were in a rare as both teams scuf-
fled for the winning point. With 80
seconds left to play, Reza Hames
took an almost impossible hook shot
from the corner and while all hearts
trembled with fear as the ball
-whigled through the air and proved
to be the winning point, Picayune
went ahead 43-41.

How's Your Lingerie?

Lingerie is queer word in more
ways than one. First of all, it was
borrowed from the French years
ago by American merchants who
wanted a euphemism for the then
too indelicate word, underwear.
OF course, the French word lin
gerie doesn't mean underwear. Its
literal meaning, translated from the
French dictionaries, is: The linen
trade or industry; linen room or
closet, as in a home, a hotel, or
hospital; linens collectively" The
word is from the French linge which
means linen"
Nevertheless, lingerie became an
American term for silk stockings
silk underwear, nightwear, negli-
gees, corsets, brassieres and all the
other accoutrements with which
the female torso is draped, encirclec
and held in restraint.
The French pronunciation of lin.
gerie is la a(n)zh-REE. But in that
weird tongue spoken by shopkeep.
ers and their salespeople who cater
to the clothing needs of "modom,
the pronunciation became LAWN
juh-ray.
One or two dictionaries now rec
ognize LAWN-juh-ray; but most
dictionaries remain stubbornly
Gallo, listing only laCn)zh-R -REE
Evening star., 1949-01-03
Take Ny Word for 1t

But, at this writing, LAWN -juh-ray
still prevails in American usage.
Of late, however, the radio an
nouncers on the innumerable soap
programs have been using the pro-
nunciation Lan-zhuh-ree which I
recommended in 1947 as a sensible
compromise between the too pro-
vincial -juh-ray and the
hard to say (for most Americans)
la (n) zh-REE.
believe that in time LAN-zhuh-
rec will become the standard Amer
ican pronunciation, especially if
radio continues to popu]arize it.
Radio, like the printing press,
puts words into mass production.
Obviously it exerts a great influ-
ence on the American speech pat
tern. Whether that influence is
good or bad depends upon radio
itself.
On the whole, radios effect has
been beneficial. The networks en-
ploy speech consultants to police
the utterances of their own broad
casters, and network speech is nc
ticeably and steadily improving.
The networks, however, have no
control over sponsored commen-
tators, local announcers, and nom
professional broadcasters. 1t is
they who must be made to realize
their individual responsibilities in
setting a good example for the rest
