BAKERY WORKERS BUY PLANT FLAG

Nickels and dimes contributed by the 200 workers at the General Baking Co. 326 W. Vermont St, have made possible the raising of a flag atop the plant tomorrow at 1p m Unfurling of the flag will end the campaign held at the plant for the past two weeks. The idea was conceived by Joseph Cronin, company safety supervisor. } Going on the premise that “you can’t have too much patriotism these days.” the workers purchased the flag and the company erected tne poise which sits on the roof

of the building 100 feet above the ground.

Refreshments will be served “on

Hitch-Hiker Ho - Cents and

NEW YORK, Sept. 24 (U. P.).— Robert E. Friers, a University of Michigan graduate who has hitch-

hiked 114,000 miles, arrived here from a 12,000-mile trip through

Central and South America with 35

cents and a tale of wne. The 35 cents, he said, would be more than enough to get him. to Ann Arbor, Mich., where he will do post-graduate work. His tale of woe unfolded yesterday as follows: ci He left the United States June 15, going to Monterey, Mexico, where at a political meeting his pocket was picked and his camera confiscated! He hired two burros to take him to Salina Cruz, Mexico, but after he had covered 270 miles a snake bit | one of the burros and he had to| walk the rest of the way.

Hospital.

But he wasn’t down-hearted because in Salina Cruz he was going to see Rosario Esquinta, ‘the most beautiful girl in southérn Mexico.” She got married and left town the day he arrived. In Guatemala City, he caught malaria. In Nicaragua, he was put in solitary confinement. He bummed to Buenaventura, Colombia, on a plane, and violated the hitch-hiker’s code by paying passage from there back to New York on the Grace liner Santa Elena.

They worked one and two hours a day after school. shared the lessons they learned in the different offices. In a few instances the experiment led to jobs at the co-operating offices for the pupils.

Did you eat in the diner, too, Joe?”

“You bet we did. My dad does things right. When he goes anywhere he likes to take things easy. He always says he wants lots of rest and plenty of good things to eat while he's traveling so he's ready for a good time when he gets there. That's why we always go on the train.”

“Gosh, Joe, you're lucky to have a dad like you've got.”

® Are those trains grand! You should see that lounge car we rode in. It's the berries! I'm gl my dad likes to go on the train— it’s much more fun.”

Young people today have surprisingly practical ideas about things. We might be better off if we paid more attention to them. Ask any typical boy if he likes to travel by train, and he’ll ndt only answer “yes” but tell you why.
