The Emergency
In Education

Recent statements by President
Eisenhower and Congressional lead
ers present dramatic evidences of
Russian chronological developments
which should give concern to the
American people and their pub
lie school system. 1t is the belief
of the board of directors, Della
ware State Education Association,
that Americas outstanding lead
ership in world affairs including
it's industrial and chronological de-
velopments, and its great potential
for future leadership has been, and
is, largely due to the effectiveness
of it's long established democratic
public school system.
The board of directors, DSEA,
believes that the greatest defense
of a democratic society is an cleo
torate with emotional and intellec-
tual balance and ability to make
intelligent decisions. 1t holds that
such an electorate is composed
of individuals whose capabilities,
talents, and desires have been
tempered and refined by an edu-
cation appropriate to the interest
of every individual and of society.
On the other hand, a national
emergency appears to exist and the
public schools of the state and ma
ton are in a strategic position to
assist. They stand ready to carry
out any emergency program of

as the family is concerned when
you are preparing for company.
Put the children to cleaning their
own rooms. Give them upstairs or
downstairs chores, depending on
where you are not (Be prepared
to pick up after them a few min
utes before your guests arrive.)
The man of the family is a good
candidate for help, providing you
respect his admiration for BIG
chores, preferably those that take
him outdoors = gathering wood,
washing windows, arranging tree
lights, putting up door wreaths.
Get him to prepare ice cubes early,
load the cooler.
Rinse and shine the silver, make
the hors d'oeuvres, put flowers or
leaves in bowls or vases, gather
up ash trays, check the closet for
coat space and hangers while the
rest of the family snores in the
morning. A minute saved at this
time is an hour earned later.
Prepare for the worst =.

education necessary for the preser-
vation and protection of the state
and country.
The board of directors of DSEA
requests those in authority to de-
fine clearly the nature of the
emergency, advise as to the kind
of emergency program of education
necessary in the interest of the
nation, and to confine these edu-
cational activities to the demands
of the emergency. The public
schools of our democracy should
not adopt the educational pro-
cedures of a nation whose political
philosophy is anticipated to ours,
for in adopting the means of Com
munism they run the risk of adopt
ing its ends.

We have been in school almost
three months, and we feel that we
are really grown-up now.
We have lots of fun in art, music,
and gym class. If you stop by to
see US some day you will think
we are busy little bees. We have
learned to manuscript, write our
numbers, count, and some of us
have our first pre-primers.
We are now looking forward to
one of our favorite holidays
Thanksgiving. This, past week we
have been learning all about
Thanksgiving, and we know that
this is the day we give thanks for
all the things we are fortunate
enough to have.

In the Junior Red Cross we be-

Filmstrips
Friday our room had three film
strips. They were mind the
Signs" Germs and Your HEALTH"
and Bicycle Safety"
mind the Signs" was about how
to obey traffic signs. If you have a
bike you should have white light
in the front and red light in the
back. You should stop where there
is stop sign, or when the traffic
light is red.
The filmstrip, Germs and Your
Health" was about how to keep
germs from getting into your
mouth. One way to keep them from
getting into your mouth is to wash
your mouth out with a mouth
wash.
The filmstrip about Bicycle
Safety" told that you should not
ride another person on your bike.
You should not weave in and out
in traffic.
We enjoyed the filmstrips very
much and we think we learned a
lot from them.
Thanksgiving Holidays
On the first Thanksgiving, in the
fall of 1921, the Pilgrims and the
Indians had big feast. AS they
sat down they thanked the Lord for
their blessings.
They ate cornbread, corn, cram
berries, turkey, and a lot of other
foods. After they ate they had all
kinds of entertainment. Indians
did their tribal dances. To the Pill
grims this was interesting because
the Pilgrims had never seen any
thing like that before Now
Thanksgiving is a national holi-
day.
