small capacity for respecting
America or anything else.
1t has long been tradition of
American schools to have Satur-
days and Sundays free for re-
creation. Therefore, we consider
that the instruction elementary
school children will receive
should be given during regular
school days at least after re-
gular school hours if necessary.
In supervising the education
of aur children so thata they will
have a wellrounded academic
training and a fully developed
and wholesome personality, we
are not in conflict with any
Church or State laws. In this
aim, reasonable and just, we
desire only three things:
/. To have only a few lessons
week in the Lithuanian
language FOR THOSE PU-
Pills WHOSE PARENTS
WISH 1T.
2. To be allowed the use of
some classrooms on Satur-
days for pupils attending
high schools so that they
could receive instruction in
the Lithuanian language, Ii
terature and religion.
3. To have religion taught in
Lithuanian to THOSE PU-
Pills WHOSE PARENTS
WISH 1T and to have a
chaplain appointed to teach
them religion.
Cleveland's st. George parish
is the only one in the United
States where the teaching Of
the Lithuanian language is deli
berately suppressed, and this by
a Lithuanian pastor. Lithuanian
is now being taught in all schools
where it is requested, and nei-
ther Ecclesiastical superiors nor
the States find anything detri-
mental in this. ..o,sa,
In seeking the fulfillment of
our moral right, we have no de-
sire for falsehoods, quarrels or
agitation. Our sole desire is
truth and goodwill to all and
from ALL.

We Explain

.
by the pastor, Father Vilkutai-
tis, during his sermons, about
the Lithuanian newcomers to
the United States, for their wish
to have Lithuanian instruction
at st. Georges school.
Bee use the accusations
thrown against us are untrue,
we find it necessary to explain
the true situation concerning
this matter.
Father Vilkutaitis stated that
there are ''two or three leaders"
who have organized the people
into signing a petition. This
shows his ignorance Of present
day Lithuanians. We are not a
people easily led, and no few
leaders could have melted us to
sign anything we did not wish
to. The Russians used all the
wiles and threats at their COM
mand to bend the Lithuanians
to sign up for the communist
party, to enroll in communist
youth societies, to denounce the
Church, etc., but they did not
succeed. The Germans also
tried everything they could de-
wise to get the Lithuanians to
join in their war effort, to or
ganize Lithuanian military bat
talions to resist the Allies, to
yield farm products according to
German schedules, but their eff
forts were also to no avail. These
are just brief examples to
prove the fact that all those
who signed truly do so of their
own free will.
Father Vilkutaitis stated that
among the newcomers there are
"floaters", apparently in need of
jobs as teachers and that was
why it was wanted to have Lii
thuanians as teachers for Ii
thuanian instruction. The mo-
dern Lithuanian language and
it's literature can be taught ad-
vantageously only by Lithuanian
college-trained people. For a
whole year number of such
teachers devoted their time Sa-
turdays to teach Lithuanian sub
jects without receiving one pen
ny Of compensation. Father Vii
kutaitis was assured that this
would be continued without bur-
dening the treasury of St. Geor-
ge's school.
Father Vilkutaitis said that
mo other nationality" desired
this type of instruction. Polish
has long been taught in many
Polish parishes, as we'll as Ger
man in German ones. But this
is beside the point. The Lithu-
anians are as proud Of their
origin and history as any other
self-respecting person is of his,
and they wish to preserve some
of this feeling in their children.
The children who have been born
abroad can never quite feel
"equar' to Americans born here,
where history naturally con-
stantly refers to 'our forefa-
thers'', unless they know about
and respect the country where
they happened to be born. The
Lithuanians have no desire to
have their offsprings grow up
with an inferiority complex
which will make them mentally
cringe before persons of "supe-
rior" extraction. Children bea-
ring any kind of "complexes'
are not likely to grow into the
best type of future American ci-
tizens. All men are created
equal under God, and it is up
to us to see to it that our chill
dren feel no shame, as also no
superiority, in the nationality
which God bestowed upon them.
Even if other nationalities
should be disinterested in pre-
serving the self-respect and
wholesomeness Of their off
spring, - it is certainly no sha-

which zoop up at the sides, and

New pointers about lip make
up from one Of New York's
experts:
Rod Barron saidto me, st think
most women have difficulty in
handling lipstick brush. They
should use one, by all means, but
it seems easier for them to use
the tube first on the middle part
of the lips, and then outline the
edge with the brush"
He continued, about nine out
of 10 women fail to fill in the
corners. This adds years to their
appearance age, by making the
mouth look droopy. It is easier
for women to start their lip rouge
at the corners so they can see
what they are doing in this most
difficult spot. If they start at

except when they can have their
own way. To punish a child be-
cause you are angry or provoked,
or because some valuable object
has been ruined or broken, is
wrong. Nor is spanking a sub
stitute for patience. instruction
and training. With patience and
diligence the parents should cul-
tivate a noble symmetrical char
acter in the child, wedding out
evil traits as they appear, and
preparing the child as soon as
possible for self government.
Self-government is the goal
to be obtained in the life Of the
child. The will should never be
broken, it should be governed. 1t
is needed in the battle of life.
Abraham, Isaac, and Daniel are
examples of men who possessed
strong, well-disciplined wills. AS
one writer has stated, 1.-THE great
est want of the world is the want
of men-men who will not be
bought or sold: men who in their
inmost soul are true and honest;
men who do not fear to call sin
by its right name: men whose
conscience is true to duty as the
needle to the pole; men who stand
for the right though the heavens
fall" But such a character is
not the result of accident.
Corporal punishment is of
greatest value in the small child,
and when properly used at this
time it eliminates many problems
later in life. AS the child grows
older respect for the authority Of
the parents should be maintained.
They should be taught that their
help is needed in the home and
they should share more and more
of the responsibilities of the home.
The young adult should be made
to realize that as long as he
shares the security and benefits
of the home that he is under OBJ
legation to respect its authority
and contribute to its upkeep and
necessities as he does the gov
eminent whose protection he en-
joys.

Just a note from the hair
styling division to say that bangs
are the latest gadget. They are
extremely stylish now, and it is
surprising how becoming they
are to many women. Try this out
with care, because some women
cannot wear them. You can get
the general effect before having
them cut by folding your hair
under on your forehead to see
how you would look.
Fluffy bangs have long been a
boon to the woman whose face Is
too long. forehead too high or re-
ceding. The smartest type today
lis the short, straight, tailored
bang. These can be used with a
rugged haircut but think it is
more attractive on most women,
when combined with soft curls

CORPORAL PUNISHMENT.

(From F. C.. L., WashingtonJ
In reply to the letter of R. o. S.
concerning the use of corporal
punishment. the tragic results of
the lack of proper discipline in
the home and permitting the
children to exercise the authority
largely accounts for the change in
attitude of many people toward
corporal punishment. We read in
the Bible that. "He that spareth
his rod hateth his son; but he
that loveth him chasteneth him
betimes." Also, "Chasten thy son
while there is hope, and let not
thy soul spare for his crying" In
dealing with His earthly children,
He says. For whom the Lord
loveth He chasteneth and scourg-
eth every son whom He receiveth."
Children should be reasoned with
and taught faithfully by precept
and example and when, in spite
of this, they willfully disobey a
spanking is indicated.
Corporal punishment is to the
character what medicine, and
sometimes surgery, is to the body.
1t is given, not because of the
unpleasantness involved, but for
the benefit of the child. Cor
poral punishment should be ad-
ministered in adequate doses only
when necessary to correct de-
formities of character, which if
permitted to remain and grow,
would hamper or destroy the
child's future happiness. In the
life Of selfish, headstrong, un-
happy adults we see the fruit of
seed sown by indulgent parents
in the lives of their darling chill
dren whose immature will must
not be crossed, and who must be
kept supremely happy regardless
to what is best for the child or
the rights of others, including
the parents. Such go through
life In constant conflict with
those about them, marring the
happiness Of those who love them,
and feeling abused and miserable
