Rebels Give Up
North LaosRuIe

HONG KONG, Dec. IL ~
The Red-inspired Pathet Lao
rebel movement has relin-
pushed its authority in North
ern Laos under an agreement
bringing Communists into the
government Of that tiny South
east Asian nation.
Hanoi Radio in Communist
North Wet Nam said today
administration OF troops and
population Of Phong Sally and
San Neua provinces was trans
ferred to the royal government
last Sunday in the remote city
Of Sam Neua.
Prince Souphanouvong, the
Pathet Lao leader who now is
Minister of Planning in the
coalition, expressed his conf
dence In the royal government
led by his half-brother, Prince
Souvanna Phouma, the broad
east said. Prince Souphanou-
wong has surrendered the rebel
troops November 10.
In the Laos capital Of Wen
tiane the Minister of Justice
signed a directive freezing
Pathet Lao political prisoners.
The Pathet Lao movement
had occupied the two provinces
since the last months Of the
Indo-China war. 1t was as
ISOLATED with Communist
forces that forced the French
out Of North Wet Nam.
Prince Souvanna Phouma,
Premier Of Laos, vowed No
vember 10 that Communists
would not infiltrate his country.
The United States State De-
partment said the next day
it viewed the coalition with
the Communists as a perilous
course because the history Of
such coalitions elsewhere in
the world reveals the tragic
sequence Of Communist pene-
tration and takeover."

FIRE PREVENTION
"Are you careless with fire? Bet
ter admit it because in all prob
ability you could well be one of the
many persons who will cause at
least $300,000,000 worth OF damage
this year. Your carelessness could
leave it's mark. Better think twice.
What can you do to prevent this
unnecessary destruction of life
and property?
Statistics show that every part
of your home can be a menace to
fire. First take look at the attic.
Is it filed with paper, rags, or
other little fire helpers? If so, let's
throw them away. A cleaner attic
means safer one. Now let's take
& minute of our time to eye those
electrical outlets. Are you caus-
ing them to work overtime? How
about those frayed wires? BY elm
mating those problems your appli-
ances will last longer and save you
money. In the kitchen are matches
left near the stove or in the reach
of small children? If / were you,
I'd take care of that problem right
away. 1t could be dangerous. Now
for peek at the cellar and garage.
Does the man of the house work in
either place and leave kerosene or
gasoline ia places where they
could cause troublei Better tell
him to look twice and be extra
careful. II pays Off Ever notice
those trash cans! Are they emptied
as frequently as is necessary and
disposed of neatly? This could be
big Improvement in making your
house safer one.
"Now look back in what we've
accomplished. Did doing these few
things improve the safety of your
home? Sure it did, and it will do
the same for others. Is it worth a
try?"

PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, the State of Del

cent due April 80, 1858.

bly, to June 80, 1859, in relation to

estimated twenty million dollar
deficit will then exist; and
WHEREAS, it is neither prudent
nor been possible to continue def
cit note borrowing indefinitely and

vent the State of Delaware from

terest on our $130,000,000 bonded
debt must be paid from current
revenues or further borrowing

ously damaged for many years tC

proper growth functions involving
capital improvements would be
seriously disrupted if not halted;
and
WHEREAS, each passing day
compounds the States critical fl.
nancial situation, makes solutions
more costly and more difficult tC
accomplish, and creates additional
problems for our entire economy;

IT'S FUN to dress up on Christ
mas day in comparatively frivol-
Gus apron, overskirt or blouse that
is meant to be worn only once a
year.
This year textile designers have
produced ali kinds of gaily print
ed Christmas fabrics with cheer
full designs of holly, poinsettias,
Christmas bells and such that lend
themselves ideally to holiday ac-
cessories. These are inexpensive,
washable cotton fabrics, so you
don't need to feel extravagant a.
bout making something that comes
out only at Santa Claus time. You
can get several yards for dollar,
and most of the fbrics are san
forized against shrinkage.
One bright idea suggested by To-
cal sewing center experts is a gay
Christmas overskirt to wear over
your indispensable little black
sheath dress on Christmas day.
They recommend border print de-
sign of red poinsettias with green
leaves on black background, made

inch rulers printed on it, so you
can be sure to get the border print
at the right point. The overskirt
itself has a border at the hemline
and another strip of border print
is used for a wide shirred CONNER
bund. Just in case you don't own
the basic sheath dress, the envelope
includes a pattern for making one.
If you own white wool dress,
you might consider a holiday bor-
der print with a red Background
for an overskirt, or white back
ground print with red and green
holly wreath motif.
While you're basting the turkey,
you can just turn the overskirt
around to make an apron. Since the

cided to make posters pointing up
the good ways to improve our per-
sonality. We put our drawing on
wax paper. Then we traced it on
big sheets of poster paper. After
wards the posters were painted.
Some of us think they are very

Christmas Plans
One day this week our class be-
gan it's Christmas work. Our first
job was to plan together. Our topic
will be Christmas Around The
World. We will keep careful notes
and make a book. These notes will
be from class discussion and our
own reading. We will collect ma
terials of all kinds. Movies will be
shown and resource people will be
called in to talk to us about Christ
mas in their land.
Besides customs and geographic
setting, outstanding literature, art,
and music will be studied.
We are hoping to tell our parents
about things we learn by giving
a program. Light refreshments
will be served.

Programs
This year we are having quite
few programs. We had one on
Columbus Day. We played some
scenes from the life of Columbus.
We had a Halloween party. At
that time people read poems and
prose from our books on Autumn.
One person gave the meaning of
Halloween.
We are going to have a short
Thanksgiving program. Then at
Christmas we are going to have a
program growing out of our unit of
work on Christmas Around The
World. We are going to entertain
our parents. We are enjoying this
year at school.

The boys and girls in Mrs.

preparing for Thanksgiving Day.
We have learned a special
blessing" that can be used in our
own homes before our own Thanks
giving dinner. We have enjoyed
songs, rythms, and stories relat-
ing to the First Thanksgiving Day,
and we have had fun drawing pic
lures illustrating the many, many
things we all had to be thankful
for.
We collected $500 for the Ameri-

that other children, in other lands,
might have as rich and happy a
life as we, and something for which
to be thankful.

In Social Studies we are studying
about Thanksgiving and Indians.
Each unit we study is written up
and put in our scrapbook. We have
studied about the United Nations,
and also about how plans, animals,
and people get ready for winter.
Filmstrips made our study more
interesting.
We like to sing and enjoy our
music periods with Mrs. Bennett
very much. We look forward to our
art and physical education periods.
Every day we have an organized

When the Christmas season
comes we plan to have the ex-

come to our room to tell us how
Christmas is celebrated in their
countries.

about autumn and two paragraphs
about Thanksgiving. We found pic

zines and papers. Our class likes
poetry. We copied some poems of
famous writer's in our books. We
liked Last Word of a Bluebird'
