A Tribute To
n. D. Leaders
By MRS. w. L. BAUCOM
Treasurer of County Line Council

This week. April 29-May S, we
are celebrating National Home
Demonstration Club Week. Those
OF you who are not familiar with
the work might like to know some
thing of our organization. We
have seventeen clubs in Lincoln
county. Each club has a president,
vlce-president, etary and
treasurer. Also. in each club there
are appointed project leaders.
There are leaders in Foods and
Nutrition, Home Gardens, Home
Poultry. Home Dairy, Food Con-
Servation, H n G and House
Furnishings, Home Management,
Family Life, Home Beautifica-
ton. Clothing, Arts, Crafts, and
Health. In recent years, these
leaders have become more and
more important in club work.
They are giving their time and
ability to attend leadership train
ing schools in order to go back
to their individual clubs and pre-
ent the information. They are
kaiso called upon to assist the All
Club Leaders in judging dress re-
vaes and help with the annual
All Achievement Day Prgram. In
their individual clubs, they are al
SO responsible for music and
recreation W h i C h follows each
monthly demonstration. We. as
members of the Home Demohstra-
tion Clubs, want to recognize the
wonderful work being done by
these women.
These able leaders have done
much to further Home Demon
stration Club work in Lincoln
County.

Club House
Is Our Goal"
BY MRS. FRANK DRUM

The Ainslee Alexander Home
Demonstration Club was organized
in December 1858. For the next
two years, we worked together
IN der the leadership of Mrs.
Ernest Shrum, president, Mrs. 10y
Mcconnell, vice president, Mrs.
Gather Shrum, Secretary, and
Mrs. A. j. Lemmond, Jr., treas
urer. We knew, right away, the
project we wanted to choose -
that of building club house in
our community. AS yet, we haven't
realized that dream; but we are
still working hard toward our goal.
In order to raise monies, we have
had sweet sales, suppers, auction
sales, sold flavoring and cards.
Everyone has worked hard and in
unity.
We had a sweet sale and bought
material and made capes for the
Asbury School Glee Club and Boys
Choir this year.
Our new officers for the year
1856 and 1857 have been chosen:
Mrs. Jake Rhyme, President, Mrs.
Frank Drum, Vice-PreSident. Mrs.
Bud Schronce, Secretary and Mrs.
Bill Keever, Treasurer. We are
looking forward to working with
these women and are hoping that
we will be abel to recah our goal
during their term of office.
Our past president, Mrs. Ernest
Shrum, hasn't ceased her faithful
and untiring services to the club.
She is now serving as County
Committee Chairman on Citizen
ship and International Relations.
Recently, she went to Chapel Hill
to attend the Sixth Annual Con-
ference on world Affairs"
We hope to reach all the women
in our community who haven't
Joined our club. 1t is felt that if
we are able to get them to attend
one meeting and see how much
opportunity Home Demonstration
offers them, they will want to join.

else have yourself some fun MAX

pieces Of green velvet, or those
wide pipe cleaners, dyed green and
looped together, will do splendid
ly. Have a green or bright orange
tablecloth, a wooden bowl of coco
nut and nuts, and a large vase Of
flowers.

limits on the size to which a
business can grow would be to
unseat the customer from the
position Of being the boss" and
put in his place some government
official or government bureau.
In the American economy there
is a place for businesses Of all
sizes. But that place, and size, is
best determined by the free play
of economic forces-in simpler
words, the choices Of millions of
customers-rather than by gov
eminent order.
Under competition, the COM
pany that makes the wrong de-
cisions will suffer. Under govern
ment control, when bureau Off
Gals make mistakes, the public
suffers.

Salaries of County Officials
DISGRACE TO MONTANA

Tn this period increasing living costs few salared people
have more day behind the rest of the parade to the
extent that the than $500 county elected and appointed
employees have
1t may come as a surprise to learn that Montana
county officials and their assistants receiving less than
$3.50 month for doing highly important
work branches of county Even in the
more highly populated greater taxable valuation counties
salaries with the received by
practically all other segments of the population.
For example the County Treasurer of Lewis & Clark
one of the top Montana counties population and taxable
valuation law receive salary of only S91o
month County commissioners in this larger county have
their salaries limited day Even in the first class
ties the highest paid official the sheriff. receives only $3.50
a month in salary.
Such unreasonably low salary schedules result in:
l. Dedicated public servants being treated shabbly
by the people whom they serve;
g. Many highly competent people shyng away from ac-
cepng responsibilities of county elective appontVe
office much better financially in private
employment; .
g. County frequently being conducted by less able
poorly trained people
Only Legislature has the authority to correct the exist
ing salary deficiencies applying to county personnel For the
sake fairness dedicated county employees for eff
ficient county administration the 1857 Legislature has
sponsby drascay revise upward the salary levels of
phases of county is to be hoped that that
body next January and February will, before
days up enact amendaory legislation to Section 25
codes that this salary injustice pertains
to county personnel will be eliminated.

N. Y. Times Says President
Encouraged Soviet Leaders,

AT no time in the Korean war, and
perhaps even since the Communist
conquest of the Chinese mainland,
have United States officials been
confronted by a more serious situa-
tion than now faces them in the
Middle East
ITO put it bluntly, What faces them
is that the Soviet Union has now
emerged as the dominant power in
that area :.
6. the President, by constantly
repeating that the United States would
not become involved in the Middle
East, partly neutralized the United
States and encouraged the Soviet
leaders to believe that they could in
tervene lin the Middle East) with i'm
punity.
the Soviet Union has won a
great victory in an area it has been
trying to penetrate for two centuries"
