CHRISTMAS PROGRAM FOR
LONDON CHAPTER OAR

Amid beautiful holiday at
mosphere at the Cooyer Memorial
Club House Wednesday night,
the lovely Christmas party of
London Chapter, Daughter of the
American Revolution, was en-
joyed by all.
The chapter was indebted to
the Twentieth Century Club
which had provided the attractive
setting, and from the front door,
with its boughs of cedar accented
with huge red tarlatan stock
ing crammed with packages, to
every appropriate place in the
long room, the decorations be-
spoke the very spirit of Yuletide.
The center of attraction was
the real tree on the regents ta-
BILE with bright and gaily eolored
lights above the soft mantle of
snow. On the piano was an off
center arrangement featuring a
large red boot with presents
nestled among snow decked
gracefully trailing ever
green. Topping the large secretary
was a Christmas card tree, and
the small sparkling tree on the
desk was balanced by a spray of
cedar capped with a red bow.
The side lights were adorned
with green sprigs and red bows,
and on the sill of each window
was the cedar flecked with snow
and the brilliant ribbons.
The regent, Mrs. Jesse E.
Chance, presided during the busi-
ness session and extended the
seasons greetings and wished
a Happy New Year to the Daugh-
tiers.
The devotional service was Civ
en- by the chaplain, Mrs. Clayton
Day, who read the Nativity
story from Matthew and a Christ
mas prayer, and led in the pledge
of allegiance to the flag and the
singing of the National Anthem.
Miss Margaret Chance, chair
man of the program committee,
was in charge of the entertain-
ment for the evening and pres
ented the guest artists.
Mrs. Kenneth Fichner, popular
soprano soloist, sang sweetly
"Jesu Bambino" by Yon and A.
Adams, "Oh Holy Night" Her
accompanist was Mrs. Ernest A.
Wall.
An excellent story, Journey In
to Christmas" by Bess Streeter
Aldrich was selected by the we'll
known book reviewer, Mrs. Harry
Garnett.
It dealt with the loneliness of
an aging mother on Christmas
Eve, by herself for the first
time in her life since none of her
four children were coming home.
In retrospect she visualized other
holiday seasons with old-fashioned

Teachers 10 File
Salary Petitions

Petitions to initiate before the
Legislature next year proposed
la VITO provide minimum salry
schedule for Ohio techers will be
filed with the secretary of state
Friday, Ohio Education Associa-
ton officials announced Wednes-
day.
The petitions, they predicted,
will contain approximately 100000
signatures. They must have Sc, ,785
valid names-3 per cent of the
total vote for governor at the No
Vember Z election-to have the
gbill laid before the Legislature
latter Jan. 1.
The proposed law would fix a
minimum salary for techers
with less than two years of rec
Iognized college training at $1,000,
with a S100 increase annually the
first 10 years.
The maximum, for teachers
with a masters degree, would be
S260o and. an annual aincrease of
$120 for each of the first 16 years.
It also would require a nine
month school year in each dis
trict and at least 8 mills tax levy,
inside and outside limitations, for
a district to receive state aid for
teachers salaries.
Announcement of filling of the
petitions came on the eye of the
opening session of the Representa-
tive Assembly of the OES tonight
in the Deshler-W -Wallick Hotel
About 1000 teachers and school
administrators, including $50 vot-
ing delegates, will attend.

JUVENILE DELINQUENCY

Far more serious from com
munity standpoint than the read
ing of crime comic books is the
fact that lottery and pool ticket
operators are able to demonstrate
daily that crime does pay.
As long as you have under
world characters who drive big,
powerful shiny automobiles on the
streets of a city and live in leisure
and abundance, you will find it
difficult to convince all juveniles
that the best policy is to earn
an honest living. - Charles H.
Boswell, Chief Probation Officer,
Indianapolis.
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1950-12-15

The most wonderful thing about
the heart is that it's a pretty
tough machine which can take
a lot of punishment. Many people
with known heart trouble have
been able to live long and useful
lives by recognizing their weak
ness and taking proper care of
themselves.
The heart usually gives some
kind of warning when it begins
to weaken. Shortness of breath
when working or playing; the
fast beating of the heart when
climbing stairs, those pains over
the heart all mean that a
check-up is in order. An early
visit to a doctor can save you
much worry and may add years
to your life.
AS you get older your heart
gets older This calls for certain
changes in your way Of living.
You must slow down gradually
but not come to a stop. Keep
on with work and play but change
to less strenuous kinds Of activity.
If your job is a real hard one
which knocks you out by the end
of the day, talk it over with your
doctor. He may suggest ways of
building up your strength or he
may advise you to change to an
other kind of work. Hard work
won't hurt you If your body can
take it. Know Just how far you
can 60 and don't overdo it.
The same thing goes for play
Football, basketball, tennis hand
ball and any other sport which
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1950-12-15

calls for hard running and jump
ing are simply not for anyone
past middle-age. Let your body
be your guide. If any sport leaves
you gasping for breath and it
takes long time for your heart
to stop pounding, better give up
that kind of play.
This doesn't mean you have to
retire to a wheel-chair. Activity is
necessary for the body at all
ages. Let regular physical ex-
aminations tell you the condition
Of your body and then plan your
living accordingly.
Even people with heart trouble
can go right on with some kinds
Of work taking it easy, avoiding
excitement and doing exactly as
their doctors advise them.

Returning to the bench for the
first time since January Is, the
tribunal may hand down opinions
on many of the A cases argued
previously.
Justice Douglas, according to
latest word at the court. will be
back next month, probably in time
for oral arguments on the Lou
isiana and Texas tidelands suits
and an important racial issue in
volving railroad dining car segre-
cation. He was injured last Octo-
ber when thrown from a horse
near Yakima, Wash.
Arguments on the Justice De-
partment's civil antitrust drive
against the Washington ReaI
Estate Board and the National
Association of Real Estate Boards
will come late next week, tenta-
lively February Is.
Battle Started in 1947.
The department declared that
the two groups and several speci-
fed officers and directors violated
the Sherman Antitrust Act by
conspiring to fix commission rates
charged by members of the Wash
ington board in the sale, lease OF
management of real estate in the
District.
The legal fight goes back tt
September, 1947. A District grand
Jury indicted the board and as.
sociation, along with several in.
dividuals, on charges of anti-trust
law violation. At a trial in 1948
District Court Judge Edward M
Curran directed an acquittal ver-
dict.
The Justice Department, mean.

Air Agreement Due for Hearing.
Contending that real estat.
