OPEN LETTER TO PARENTS
Dear Parents:

Lear Parents:
Many persons have lost the op-
portunity of life time through
hardness.
School is a business and like all
business, it operates on schedule.
The children cannot leave home
until you give the permission.
Very often you detain them for
various reasons; and much more
often the knowledge of the i'm
0ortance of punctuality has not
been instilled in the children.
The careless use of time is OBJ
jectionable. You have, we are
sure, felt that few minutes
makes little difference and as
result many of the meetings you
attend begin later and later.
We can't wait for the crowd to
come at school. The clocks are
set to ring automatically and we
move regardless.
We are trying to prepare the
children for the responsibilities
of adulthood and primarily among
these is making living. The ma
jor requirement of holding a job
is punctuality. Won't you coop
crate with US? We have far too
many pupils coming to school
late. Who is responsible, you or
they?

esting film-strips which was pro-
duced by the Division of Elemen-
tary Education and the Division of
Institutional Services, Los Ange-
les City Schools. The film-stripS
began with pre-reading expert
enceS and was carried throughout
the sixth grades. Some of these
films had its advantages and dis
advantages, and we also noticed
some of us are carrying out some
of the same procedures.
After the showing of the films
we were served a delicious re-
past. While we were enjoying our
food the recorders and diScussant
leaders assembled in front to be-
gin question and answer period.
Many interesting points were
brought out, one main suggestion
was that the teachers try some
of these methods and when we
meet again we will share them
with each other. From all indica-
tons everyone had an enjoyable
evening Many thanks to Mrs. |
Clarke for making these film
strips available, and we at Be-

The report is going around
among convicts in three Ohio
prisons that a certain st. Vim.
cent de Paul Society in Co.
lumbus will help them get out
of jail, get a job and begin
a new lease on life.
The report, it was learned
this week, is true. For the
Society's 12-member unit in
st. Peters parish is doing exact
ly that. In fact, the conference
in the past three years has taken
nine PAROLES under its wing,
found jobs for them, and welcom
ed them back to society.
The work Of the vincentian
unit In sponsoring PAROLES
unique in the Columbus Dio-
eese - was revealed this week
by Joseph Duffy, Richard Ev-
ans and John Meyer. three OF
the most active members of the
conference. All three have
spent so much time at the Ohio
Parole and Pardons Commits
sion office that state employees
ere beginning 10 think they
work there.
The paroiee project, Duffy
said, was inspired three years ago
by a letter from Father Bernard
Clement, SS.CC.. chaplain at the
Marion Training School. The let
ter, read before the Particular
Council of the st. Vincent de
Paul Society, asked for one mem
Der of the society to help find q
job for a prospective parolee
The young man was from out oi
the state, and Father Clement
had decided that it would be bet
ter for the youth to settle in
Ohio, away from his original bad
environment.
Interested, Duffy, Evans and
Meyer went to Marion to talk
with the chaplain and interview
the prisoner.
After signing the sponsorship
