FROM HIGH SCHOOL TOOL freshman to principal, That is just what has happened to Joel W. Hadley who this year took over the head man's seat at Shortridge high scool. He succeeds Dr. J. Dan Hull who resigned to acoept a position with the federal government. Shortridge has become as much a part of Mr, Hadley's life as three meals a day and a night's sleep. His first contact with the North side school was

" back ‘in 1906. At that time it was located on N.

Pennsylvania st. between Michigan and North sts. Today the spot is occupied by the Sports Arena. As a freshman at Shortridge he gave scarce thought to his future life. Little did he know that enrollment on his first day would evolve into a career now of 40 years’ standing. Following graduation from high school, Mr. Hadley worked for the Indianapolis Water Co. before entering Wesleyan university at Middletown, Conn, where he took his A. B, degree, a

HISTORY ENTWINED—The face of Joel W. Hadley, new Shortridge high school principal, is as familier to students and alumni as is the facade of the building. He has been connected with the school since 1906.

Oh Happy Man

. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—~There were the headfines about $1-a-pound butter, buyers’ strikes, grocers’ laments, aroused housewives, worried politiclans and threats of a new OPA. They indicated to me that in all America there was only one happy man left. I phoned him, “Come right on over,” chuckled Paul T. Truitt. “Yes ‘sir, things were never better. I'll wait for you.” Happy Man Truitt, president of the National Assoelation of Margarine Manufacturers, was standing in his doorway a few minutes later with his hand stretched out for shaking purposes. His smile was 80 broad it crinkled his ears. While prices of all other foods have been soaring, he said, the cost of niargarine has been dropping until now it's close to pre-war levels. Anywhere in America today a housewife can buy a pound of margarine for around 30 cents. Business is booming as it's never boomed before,

Expect 700 Million Pounds

MR. TRUITT was in the midst of telling how sales had doubled since 1940 4nd how America's 22 margarine manufacturers figured on turning out, a whopping 700 million pounds this year, when the phone rang. New York calling. The trustees for a number of hospitals were appealing for expert legal advice on what to do about the state law prohibiting the use of margarine in public institutions, . “Their budgets just can't be stretched to include butter at today’s prices,” Mr. Truitt said. “And this law, which has been in effect since June, won't allow margarine.”

He's dispatching aid to the hospital chiefs. He

In this he has unbounded energy and does not confine his interest to school terms and hours only.

sald most of tno artificial Jega) barriers against margarine seem to be crumpling under the impact of $1 butter. No wonder Mr. Truitt chortled. ; He added - (and I'm quoting him, dairy industry) that margarine is more nourishing than most butter, more sanitary, more uniform in quality, and certainly today a far better buy. What makes him happiest of all is the fact that margarine, the one food that has gone down in price since the war, also is the only food that gets no federal subsidies or price supports. “It is geared directly to the world price for edible oils,” he said. “The price of these oils has gone up in the last few days but there is a bumper crop of

soybeans in the making and if there are no early

frosts, well , . .” There'll be little or no advance in margarine prices, he meant. Mr. Truitt then reeled off some facts about margarine:

Has Natural Yellow Color THE WORD comes from the Greek, meaning pearl-like. All of today’s margarine contains a hefty slug of vitamin-A, -Almost all margarine is made either from cottonseed or soybean oil. The finished product has a natural yellow color. The manufacturers must bleach this out to comply with the law and then buy artificial color for the housewife to mix in again. This long has seemed silly to Truitt and Co., as have the many special taxes levied against margarine. But their fight to have the laws changed so far has been unavailing.

Not that this matters much now. So long as but- |

ter can be egten only by the rich, the demand for! margarine will zoom. It tastes better anyhow, said Mr. Truitt. And if any creamery mogul cares to de-

fend dollar butter, I shall be delighted to interview
