cessful on last Saturday night. The
class is still working like eager
little beavers on their project of
completely redecorating the Sunday
School room for the small children.
It has been hard work, but fun too,
and the get-togethers, after the
work sessions, at the various homes
for coffee, scrambled eggs, ham
burgers or what-have-you, have
helped a great deal to cement the
fellowship of the class. These mem
bers of the class are each carrying
a heavy load of responsibilities to
home and family and other COM
munity projects, and yet each one
has so cheerfully and freely given
of their time and strength to this
work that they are a real inspir-
alton to all of us.
This week the Greenwood Com
munity launched its cancer ca1n-
paign for funds to help carry on
the work of combating this dreaded
disease. The Drive will extend to
the last of april.

WHALE ELUDEs SCIENCE

LA JOLIA, Calf. - (P) - A sci

ographers a. the try 20 get near
enough to a gray whale to har-

The 67-year-Old cardiOlOgist, who
also had the assistance of DR.. Rob-

A lean heart association,
couldn't get close enough in the
Navy boat to make the harpOon

He made a similar try off La Jol-

that heartbeat rate is relative to

The dates for the Greenwood

At the regular May meeting, the

Don't forget that musical treat
that the PTA will have for you
on Monday, May 8, at 8:15 D. m.
This is the date for the Seaford
Symphonic ChOir's Spring concert
of Sacred and Secular music. It
will be held in the Greenwood
School Auditorium and will be
given for the benefit of the Green
wood School Band. An outstanding
feature OF the concert will be selec-
tions of the gay nineties in costume.
This choir is under the direction
of Miss Julia H. Wilson of Denton.
Members of the choir are from
Seaford, Laurel, Bridgeville, FEEDER
alsburg and Greenwood. Those from
Greenwood are Mrs. William Coul-
ter, Mrs. Robert Jester, Kathryn
MerVine, Kathryn COpple, Philip
Hadaway and Everett Isaacs.
We should be very proud of this
fine showing from Greenwood, and
I'm sure all those who have heard
the choir at other performances
will not want to miss this one.
Tickets are $1.0O.
Another item that we want to
report to you in regard to the work
Of the PTA concerns the purchase
Of the audiometer for the school.
At the April meeting, Mr.. Omwake
read a letter eOngratulating the
PTA on such a purchase. I believe
there are only two schools in lower
Delaware who have such q machine.
One is Greenwood and the other,
Lewes. Since the machine has been
in use, fifteen children have been
found to have defective hearing.
Now help can be given them. With
out the audiometer they might have
gone unnoticed, and the PTA should
certainly be commended for this
purchase which will aid the chill
dren.

Pole Barns On Farms
Utilize Their Timber

Increasing popularity of pole
type barns has increased the use
OF homegrown lumber in farm
buildings, according to F. w.
Dean, extension forester at Ohio
State University.
Dean says farmers save money
on farm buildings by cutting
lumber from their own woods
One dairy farmer in northern
Ohio reported he saved $500 by
cutting and using his own timber
for pole barn.
It's important to treat poles
with wood preventative, Dean
points out. Pressure treatment is
preferred, he adds. He also sug-
gests treating the splash boards
on the building at least 2 or 3
feet above the ground.
Native lumber, such as oak.
beech, sugar maple, sycamore,
hickory and ash is we'll adapted
to this type of building. Rafters,
plates, bracing and siding can be
cut from the farm woodlot.
Dean believes pole type build
lngs are ideal for feeder barns,

steel companies have developed
sources Of supply outside the
United States. To keep our
plants from moving to the ocean
we must bring the ocean to our
midwest plants.
"ConStruction of the canal, if
we have joint control Of it, will
assure the agricultural products
of Ohio and other midwest states
direct access by ocean freighters
to the markets Of the world.
That is why it is now endorsed
by the National Grange, the
American Farm Bureau and the
Farmers Union.
IF ocean ships come to Lake
Erie, new plants making products
for export would find my district
an ideal place to locate. We have
four major railroads in the dis
trict. The Wheeling and Lake
Erie has terminal facilities at
Cleveland, Lorain and Toledo,
all lake ports. The Pennsylvania
has a direct line from Marietta
to Cleveland that bisects three
of my counties. This railroad
also has port facilities at
Ashtabula, Sandusky and Toledo.
This line would furnish a direct
connection between four Lake
Erie ports and the navigable
Ohio River. The New York Cen
tral has port facilities at Cleve-
land, Ashtabula, Lorain, Sand
usky and Toledo. The Baltimore
and Ohio has terminals at
Cleveland, Lorain, Sandusky and
Toledo. The Baltimore and Ohio
and the New York Central joint
ly have built recently the most
modern dock on Lake Erie al
Toledo. 1t cost forty million
dollars. Railroad workers in my
district stand to gain far more
than they will lose.
The cost of the project to the
United States will be 100 mil
lion dollars, all of which will be
paid back to the Treasury from
tolls.
"The question of power is no
longer involved in the seaWay
project due to the fact that the
Federal Power Commission in
July, 1853, granted the Power
Authority Of the State of New
York a license to develop power
on the United Stats side of the
border.
II think the President is right
in recommending that the Uni
ted States join with Canada in
building the seaway and l intend
to support him."
The Senate passed the ST.
Lawrence Seaway bill, Jan. 20,
1854 and the House is scheduled
to vote Thursday, May 6.

Thousands of letters are sent

poignantly the letters tell what
Bundle Week clothing means to
these people:
From the director of an
orphanage in Romans, France:
Il cannot say how delighted we
were in receiving your parcel.
You have been inspired by God
in sending us these clothes, for
we were in great need of them.

that time England and other
European countries were export
ers of coal. ! did not want them
to take the only market we had.
Today, two new power plants
and many new factories are using
our coal at home which is far
better for all of us. Furthermore,
no European country has any
coal to export. Also, / wanted
to be sure the railroads of my
district would not be harmed.
To-day the situation has
changed. Canada can, and will,
built the Seaway, no matter what
the United States does. Unless
we join in the project, my dis
trict and the whole midwest will
suffer. Twenty years ago l
fought the SeaWay to protect
my district. Today circumstances
have SO changed, that | must
support it to protect my district.
My reasons for supporting
thee Saway are as follows:
Unless we join in the project
we will have no voice in setting
the toll rates on the waterway.
. Canada could set them SO low
that our east to west railroads
would be ruined.
Canada could so favor, by
varying rates on commodities,
her own producers or the pro
ducers Of England, Australia and
other nations, that American
agriculture and industry would
be at a terrible disadvantage
even in our own markets. With
our present low tariffs many in
dustries are being ruined now.
We must have Il voice in setting
the amount of the tolls in order
to protect agriculture, industry,
workers and railroads in the
midwest.
IF the United States got in
to a war and Canada remained
neutral, would Canada let us
use the waterway unless we have
joint control over it? Our nation
al security demands that we have
a voice in the operation of the
Seaway, making certain that we
can use it in case of war.
'If we do not get a deep sea
waterway to the Great Lakes
region, we will lose much of the
great steel industry of the middle
west as well as our chance to
get new industry using steel
products. Already the United
States Steel Company has built
a new steel mill at Morrisville,
Pennsylvania, that will produce
over two million tons of ignots
each year. The ore is shipped by
ocean freighters from Venezuela
up the Delaware River direct to
the plant. The st. Lawrence
Waterway will permit the vast
deposits of iron ore in Labrador
to be shipped direct to Great
Lakes ports. The mining Of iron
ore outside the United States
was not dreamed Of 20 years ago.
