Chapter I, P.E.O., Marks 50th Anniversary

Chapter 1, P.E.O. Sisterhood, met Wednesday in the home of Mrs. Walter Ballard for the chapter’s 50th anniversary tea. Chapter I, Indiana of the P.E.O. Sisterhood was organized on April 1, 1923, at the home of Mrs. Mabel Arnold, 206 W.

Mrs. Merle Foxx and Mrs. Noble Costin will be among the 42 members of the Indiana Homemakers Association who will fly to New York City today to attend the United Nations Citizenship Seminar. Sponsored by the Indiana Cooperative Extension Service, the seminar acquaints Hoosier women with the workings of the United Nations. The group will tour the United Nations buildings, attend a session of the General Assembly, and observe committee meetings of the General Assembly. They will also visit the United States Mission for the U.N. In addition, U.N. personnel will brief the Indiana Homemakers on the operation of the United Nations. A member of the Foreign Agricultural organization Secretariat will also brief the group on UNICEF. While in New York, the women will also have free time to shop, tour the city, and attend the theatre, where they will view the Broadway

living charter member of Chapter I, and she now resides at Sunset Manor Nursing Home. The P.E.O. Sisterhood is a charitable and educational organization interested primarily in bringing to women greatly increased opportunities for higher education. This is accomplished through three educational philanthropies, with which the entire membership is concerned: the P.E.O. Educational Fund, Cottey Junior College for Women, and the P.E.O. International Peace

show, “A Little Might Music.” Arrangements for the seminar are under the direction of Martha Halst and the Seminar Steering Committee.

The towel contest ended Tuesday with Sherrill Benson winning from TOPS and Joan Cash as the KOPS winner.

Scholarship Fund. The P.E.O. Educational Fund was established in 1907 as a revolving fund for the purpose of assisting young Women in the United States and Canada to attain an education beyond the high school level. This fund has remained a loan fund for the recipients are beneficiaries who receive not only the opportunity for education, but a trust to use the funds and return them for the benefit of others. Cottey College, founded in Nevada, Mo., in 1884, has been owned and supported by the P.E.O. Sisterhood since 1927. Cottey, known as “the college of world friendship" with students from many countries, is a fully accredited Liberal Arts College, whose educational program is designed as one of the preparation for transfer to a four-year college. The college is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and by the National Association of Schools of M usic for J unior Colleges. Believing that education is fundamental to world peace and understanding, the members of P.E.O. established the International Peace Scholarship Program in 1949. The voluntary contributions of the membership are made annually and are providing scholarships for selected women from other countries for graduate study in the United States and Canada. The friendships formed between students and P.E.O. members can do much to create better under-

Should runaway j be forced home? By Abigail Van Buren © J»73 *y Chicjw TribiMW-N. Y. Newt Synd., let. DEAR ABBY: Our daughter, who will be 18 in a few months, “disappeared” last month. We reported this to the police. Then we found out that she is living with a man out of state. Should we try to bring her back and file charges with the FBI against this man for contributing to the delinquency of a minor [Mann Act, etc.] since he either took her out of the state or provided funds for her to go? What if we go thru all this only to have her move out and resume living with him the day she turns 18? She claims she loves him. URGENT IN CLEVELAND DEAR URGENT: There are many unanswered questions: Why did she leave in the first place? If she wasn’t kidnaped by this man, chances are she was “delinquent” before she left. What would you accomplish by pressing charges against him? If you want to punish your daughter and this man, you are holding all the aces now. But if you want a better relationship with your daughter, don’t try to bring her home against her will. Unless she’s one in a million, you’ll hear from her when she needs a friend, which I suspect will be soon.

DEAR ABBY: For nearly two years I’ve been the secretary to the world’s cheapest man. I like my job, but I don’t like the way my boss takes advantage of me. A refreshment cart comes around twice a day, and each time he asks me to get a cup of coffee for him. It costs 25 cents a cup, which I pay for because he never has anything smaller than a $20 bill. He has never offered to pay me back, and it’s been running me about $2.50 a week. He’s cheap in other ways, too. He gave me a lift twice and both times we went over a toll bridge he asked me for the money to pay the toll. He has also bummed dimes from me to use a public telephone. Please print this. He may see it and recognize himself. BROKE IN BROOKLYN DEAR BROKE: He’s probably too cheap to buy a newspaper. Carry change for a twenty and produce it when he says he has no change. If that fails, TELL him you can’t afford to support his coffee habit any more. CONFIDENTIAL TO “SEARCHING FOR HAPPINESS” IN MINNEAPOLIS: Why search when you can create it?

Problems? You’ll feel better if you get It off your chest For a personal reply, write to ABBY: Box No. 69700, L. A., Calif. 10069. Enclose stamped, self-addressed envelope, please. For Abby’s new booklet, “What Teen-Agers Want to Know,” send $1 to Abby, Box 60700, Los Angeles. Cal. 90069.

Dear Friends: While driving through Oklahoma during a recent trip, my wife and I were impressed by their use of the slogan "Drive Friendly''. This plea appeared regularly on highway signs and was heard frequently on local radio stations. And most drivers did seem a little less aggressive. In a small effort to expand the "Drive Friendly'' concept, I have had a number of bumper stickers prepared bearing this slogan. If tho idea of people driving friendly is appealing to you, and you would like a free sticker, courtesy your Culligan Man stop in our plant at 436 South Bloomington Street. Together, perhaps we can start something worth-while.
