CINCINNATI, Mav 1 (U. P.).— Mrs. J. K. Pettengill of Detroit. president of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, opened the organization's convention here today with an explanation that the’ meeting's theme is the second phase of the American trilogy of “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.” “These are words being tested anew in the crucible of a world of chaos and confusion,” Mrs. Petten-| gill said. “They are a prophecy | and a pledge for our children and vouth. They constitute the simple formulation of the spirit of American democracy.” She said the congress had interpreted “lioerty” as “freedom for growth.”

Asks For Free Minds

“We believe that the only way to make possible freedom for society —child, youth and adult—is to make possible liberation of the human mind in order that free minds may and maintain the fullest liberties for all,” the national president said.

By VIRGINIA MOORHEAD MANNON

We have Miss Blanche Stillson’s word for it that once you start watching for birds and keeping a calendar of their sojourns in your own treetops it becomes an engrossing spring and summer occupation. If you have kept records of your feathered visitors for two years, as Miss Stillson has, you know just when to anticipate their arrival. Last week the warblers began coming through and the woodthrush, for whom the latchstring has been out for several days, arrived on Tuesday. Miss Stillson considers herself a rank amateur in the field of bird lore and says she ‘goes around in circles with the bird books” trving to identify her winged callers. However, last year between spring and fall she counted 75 different varieties in the dense grove of trees which surrounds her house near 43d and Meridian Sts. So far this season 27 different species are listed on her little pink record pad. u 2 n un

Narcissus Show Held

The most delightful spot in town last week-end was Sculpture Court of the John Herron Art Museum, where the Indianapelis district of the Garden Club of Indiana held its first narcissus show Saturday and yesterday. The 144 entries from 14 garden clubs included 11 varieties of of narcissi, a table of specimen blossoms, mixed collections and classified flower arrangements. With three members carrying off five “firsts” the Indianapolis Garden Club had the most individual winners. Mrs. Benjamin F. Orr of the Forest Hills Garden Club, who captured six blue ribbons, took individual honors. Mrs. Orr is Indiana Garden Ciub show chairman for the Indianapolis district and was general chairman of the exhibit. Miss Elizabeth Bertermann and Mrs. Clarence Hughel were judges. First awards to Indianapolis Garden Club members went to Mrs. W. Richardson Sinclair for leedsii, to Mrs. Nicholas H. Noyes for her collection of trumpets and her entry of white trumpets and to Mrs. Perry E. O'Neal for her arrangements of both white and yellow narcissi. The yellow arrangement in a brass container featured vellow trumpets, poetaz and barril; the white blossoms were in a siiver teapot. Mrs. Orr's entries were judged best of yellow trumpets, bicolor trumpets, incomparabilis, barrii, jonquilla hybrids and doubles. Mrs. Joe G. McFarland of the Ferest Hills Garden Ciub won “firsts” with triandrus, poetaz, arrangement in Japanese manner and collections of all types. Other biue ribbons went to Mrs. GC. S. Wiltsie of the North End Garden Club for an arrangement featuring a reflection of narcissi in a mirror, to Mrs. Robert F. Mannfeld of the Neophyte Garden Club for an arrangement of white narcissus in a white container and to Mrs. Glenn Shoptaugh, also of the Neophyte Club, for poeticus, » = E-4 n n
