This month. thousands Of
high school students in more
than 200 school systems will be
studying a practical. realistic
textbook specifically prepared
for their age group and called
American Capitalism-An In
PRODUCTION for Young Citizens. {"
BY the end Of this school year,
the textbook is expected to be
incorporated into the regular
curriculum Of more than 1000
high school systems.
A major attack is being made
on economic illiteracy as a re-
suit Of years Of research and
dedicated effort by the Council
for Advancement Of Secondary
Education.
AS Of today, you're among the
less than 5 per cent Of all high
school graduates If you have
had even one semester course
in economies. You're among
the infinitesimal few if you have
been exposed to more than
theoretical. abstract stuff, hap
hazard observations.
Yet economics molds our
lives every minute of every day.
Economics is the foundation on
which our entire political and
social structure rests.
AS the new textbook says on
its first page, Economics deals
with such activities as produc-
ing, spending, saving, paying
taxes, investing, and the like
that people carry on for the
purpose of satisfying their
wants" AS individuals, these
include our wants for food,
shelter. comforts, etc., and as a
group, these include our wants
for national defense, police
protection, education, etc.
How much more fundamental
can you get? Yet most Ameri-
cans perform these activities
all their lives without any
awareness Of what their activi-
ties mean.
The story behind the text
book is in itself exciting, for
this marks only the beginning
of the drive to stamp out eco
nomic illiteracy.
In 1858 the Council for Ad-
vancement Of Secondary Edu-
cation was established by the
National Association of Sec
ondary School Principals, de-
partment Of the National Edu-
cation Association, to do re-
search into and try to improve
the program of education in
secondary schools.

String Savers


We are not versed in the realm OF
high finance. We read statements con-
cerning bank credit, flow of currency,
installment buying, mortgage money,
and the billions that the Federal Re
serve System controls. Predictions
are made and graphs devised by
bankers; the national debt is so big
that il means little or nothing to a
man who wonders where his weekly
allowance goes. Citizens grumble
about the cost of living, but continue
TO buy what they want.
Probably one should be more deep
ly concerned than he is over this mat
ter of thrift, but as the countryman
watches his helpmate save string, he
feels that the principle of thrift still
has genuine meaning. "A good string
saver sets an excellent example to
all citizens. Just why woman saves
SO much string is a moot question,
but that is not the point. The point
is that she exemplifies thrift and if
she saves all kinds and lengths OF
string, winds them into neat balls,
and keeps a 10-year supply always
ahead, she feels justified in buying
that new hat she thinks she needs
A good string saver is an example
to all of us. There are techniques in
volved that call for care and plan
ming. String comes in various sizes

THE SACRED LILY OF INDIA
which grows from nine-pound bulb
and attains the height of six feet
from bulb to pistil, is grown by Will
helm Amstutz, former Bluffton school
teacher and active member of the
Mems Garden club. Wilhelm has one
of the large lavendar blooms at his
home now and another one started or
its way blooming.
The bulbs are planted in the spring
During the summer the plant grows
in the form of one big green lea
that divides into three parts. How
ever, it does not bloom during tn,
summer. In the fall the bulbs ar,
dug, dried and put into the cellar
The bulbs are then brought int,
bloom the following winter in the liv
ing room.
This is fine. The bloom is beauti
full. The plant is unusual, but Mrs
Amstutz complains that it is about a
fragrant as a deceased rat.

and lengths, and systematic string
saver should have at least half doz-
en- balls. In addition to diameter size,
length and strength, strings today
are coming in various colors, and it
is possible as time goes on that con-
scientious string savers will make
subdivisions by colors. OF course,
here are some pieces of string too
short for any practical purpose, and
these should be carefully saved in a
box marked, TOO short to use"
With the possible exception of card
board boxes we feel string saving is
the best current illustration of nation
al thrift. There are certain danger
signs in the economy, but after all,
we don't need to worry SO long as
careful citizens save string

MICHAEL DILLER, his mother, |
Mrs. Lamont Diller, and neighbors on
Riley street are wondering whether
others in Bluffton may have seen the
band of Evening Grosbeaks who were
visitors for a short time in their
neighborhood Tuesday morning from
about 1890 to IL 80.
The birds, resembling goldfinch ex-
cept that they are nearly as large as
robins, are yellow, black and white
and have broad flat bills. The band
of eight birds included three males,
and the OILERS had time to make
close observation through field glass
es.
Their bird book states that the Eve
ming Grosbeak is a rarity anywhere
east of the Mississippi even in the
winter. The birds live and nest in
western Canada and northwestern u.
