Now the recreation season at

Motners and Dads of Roxbury
and the Village, Iwould consider
this subject one of if not the most
important one that we could dis.
cuss at this critical time. Four
years ago, there was work practi-
cally for every one, even school
children could find jobs and were
holding good jobs after school,
therefore keeping them occupied
until 1t was ten or eleven o'clock
at night. This shouldn't have
happened, because high school
children shouldn't keep those
hours and expect to make passing
grades. I am only giving YOU
this example to show the difer-
ence;that VIII en- young De ole
are busy they are more than likely
to stay out of trouble. I think
1t is the direct responsibility of the
mothers and fathers and all the
adults of the community. They
should come together and ex-
change ideas and suggestions on
ways to keep our young people
occupied and especially after
school. If each mother or father
planned for their own particular
child, have something for him or
her to do every day, there is al
ways something around the house
to do; windows to be washed
woodwork to be cleaned, floors to
be waxed, the kitchen to be clean
ed, stairhalls to be cleaned and
several other household Jobs they
could perform. I have noticed so
many children in the Village and
neighborhood after school doing
nothing but travelling in groups,
cunning up and down the streets,
entering other folks premises.
This condition could exist because
OF several reasons in the home,
but I think the real reason in the
economic insecurity that prevails
predominately today There is
very little fight in any of us when
unemployment is upon us practi-
cally all the year round, sickness
and current expenses that make
our bills pile up, and up. Yes,
! know from personal experience
that you feel like throwing up
your hands. You don't have time
to do for the children in recreation
as you would like, when yon are
using all of your thinking powers
and physical means trying to feed,
house and clothe them. My
friends somebody must help guide
our young people morally, regard
less of all else. We have enough
grief and sorrow as it is, let's not
permit our children to have bad
records. We must make our great

POLITICS HERE AND THERE
Tam wondering if the voters of
this district have been keeping
up with the courageous fight our
good friend, Congressman John W.
Mccormack, has and is wagering
in Washington. He is the first to
defend not only the colored people,
but all the minority groups, when
ever the occasion arises. Cover
nor Dever was asked by Presi-
dent Harry S. Truman to repre-
sent the Atlantic coast states n a
speaking engagement in his home
city this week. We are fortunate
to have so many powerful friends
so closely associated with the
President. Congressman John w.
Mccormack, Sec. of Labor, Maur-
ice J. Tobin, Governor Paul A.
Dever, and Mayor James M. Cur
ley. We should know by now that
Massachus etts was the only state
in the whole country that was
given to the President on platter
and the only state in the East that
went for him willingly and over
whelmingly. I can't see why this
state shouldn't be in the top posi-
ton for patronage when the Tru-
man prgram is in full swing. The
Civil Rights Rally given on the
William Carter playground was
bigger and better tina any given
during the campaign. For too
long the colored people Of New
England have been ignored for the
big plans in D. c. We have too
many big men there to sleep on
our rights. Let's wake them up.

only living Negro Catholic bishop

the small, dynamic man told of the
history of the Catholic church in
the hinterlands of Africa and hew
he rose from the son Of parents
who were martyrs for Christianity,
when his nation was heather, to the
highest office ever attained by a
Negro in the church in Africa.
Bishop Kiwanuka said that he
was consecrated by the Pope him.
self in Rome 10 years ago after he
had served the church since he had
entered the missionary seminary in

He has seen the country of 4,000,-

WE TURNED OUT with the rest

WE TURNED OUT with the rest of Seward to welcome the peo- pie from Homer last Saturday evening and since thinking it over we've discovered that we now are acquainted with more Homer people than Seward peo- ple-after more than a years residence in the Gateway City There could be several reasons for this circumstance.
 IT MAY BE that we have been a bit backward about get ting out to get acquainted with our next door neighbors and fellow toWnSmen. If that is so, then the fault is entirely ours. However, several SeWardites have lately mentioned the fact that they hardly know anyone any more. There are so many new faces at every gathering that it is hard to keep up.
 THEN AGAIN it may be that there are many more people in our city who are not acquainted with their neighbors and who would welcome an opportunity to attend a planned get-together for the purpose of making friends.
 IF LAST SATURDAYS turn out is an example of Stewards

Isn't it strange how one takes for granted things that we see every day, or that happen around us gradually?
 For instance, I heard some of the Homer visitors remark about how nice the store win dows looked. So I opened my eyes and took walk down Fourth Avenue. Came back proud as punch Our store win dows are mighty attractive. You would go a long way to find display any more pleasing and artistic than the china window at the Alaska Shop. McMullen's looks like a Fifth Avenue Shoppe-really smart.
 Doyle's Christmas window with the electric train Whizzing around h erily on perfect schedule has constant audi ence of menfolks, the kids get chance once in a while to squeeze in for a peek.
 The big log cabin in Bud Terry's window is made of match sticks. With the light inside it looks like cheerful Alas a homestead. Moody's makes me sad because can't have all the things I see in it. And for the same reason l can- not bear to gaze too long into the appliance shops.
 The atmosphere at The Blue Shop is just as warm and cozy inside as the window implies. Urbach's is the only store that worries us about falling on the ice and breaking our bones. He always reminds folks by putting ice creepers in his window. I now have three pairs because I go out without them, then stop for a new pair when 1 see them there. And Sid's flowers never fail to captivate the paSserby.
 The Mart tempts the book worms with the bright book jackets and magazines.
 Of course, groceries are ne- cessities, but Jack Werner de fies the passerby to get past his windows without mouth 1Uateripo glance
 Yes, when I see the special care taken to dress the shop windows on Fourth Avenue, l feel that Seward is progressing steadily and that we are grow ing ever closer to modern State side practices.
