Baby Sitters Rated Here

How Do You Rate As Ai “Baby-sitter" Employer? 1. Do you know your baby sitter well? How much do you know about the honesty and reliability of your baby sitter? 2. Do you leave written understandable instructions when you leave? Hastily telling orders may result in the sitter doing nothing or the wrong thing in an emerg-j | ency. Written instructions help ' her to remember details. Does your sitter know what to do in case of fire? Do you caution the sitter about proper use of household facilities (maybe she is used [ to different home tools.) Improper use of your heating system, cooking devices, radios, television I might result in injury to baby or sitter, as well as cost you lose in dollars and cents. Do you leave written instructions where you can be reached? Do you tell your sitter when you will return? 3. Do you pay fairly? Is the pay proportionate to number of children to be cared for? If you ask work dorie in addition to minding baby, do you pay extra? Do you think after midnight hours are worth more? 4. Do you provide transporta- ( tion for your sitter? Courtesy de-1 mands you see her safely to her door after dark. How Do You Rate As A “Baby-sitter”? 1. Do you like children? Yotj are foolish to take a job baby sitting if you do not like children. There are other kinds of jobs. 2. Do you make an effort to understand the orders that are given? Do you ask where you can find necessary tools for caring for ( the baby? Are you careful oft equipment and household furnishings? Do you know how to report a fire? Do you know how to con-| tact the city police? Use your head when the unexpected happens. Do you ask the parents, before they leave, where you can reach them for an emergency? 3. Do you give your entire attention to your job? You are paid, to watch the baby and household' not to entertain your guests. Do you keep the radio low so you can hear the baby call? 4. Do you tell your employer what happened while tljey were away? This does not make you a tattle-tale. Parents should know how their children behave under another’s care. They would especially appreciate your writing down telephone messages lyThe above ideas are a few which have been collected by a "baby-sitter” committee appointed by the Senior Mother’s Club. I 'This committee has been finding ■ ideas and facts which might result in better baby sitter and par-' ent employer relationships. The committee is contacting other communities to see how others are handling problems. The Mishawaka Chamber of Commerce safety division department. is now considering ways and 1 means of improvement on this “baby-sitter” occupation. Cards (suitable for attachment to tel-j ephone) have been printed and distributed to school children. 1 These cards show helpful hints and information for parents and sitters. In Ft. Wayne, a three day “baby-sitter’s” instruction course was offered to the public. The course was concluded by holding* a round table discussion from which sitters and parent employers view points were given. It would seem that our Syracuse community could form ways and means to improve the safety ■ angle of the baby sitting occupa-j tion. Do you think printed cards; given to school children would be; adequate? Would you be in favor of a “sitters’ ’instruction course be given? What organization orj club would be most qualified for such a project? Any ideas pro and con or even indifferent would be appreciated by our committee. Please give your written suggestions to The Journal office. Thank you. —Committee. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Maloy, of, Angola, and Mr. and Mrs. Orval Snobager were Sunday dinner guests, of Mrs. Millie Snobarger.

I I SPEAKS K IntemabonW UnA>n. Tail VWM SuKfaT- S<*od Lamw JMH SCRIPTURE: Mark It—lX DEVOTIONAL READING: Psalm 8: 1-X By What Authority? Lesson for March 11, 1951 IS IT right or wrong? This is a fair question always. But there

; • .gj- 'A Dr. Foreman

is another question to go with it. Who is to say whether it is right or wrong? Who is the authority? "Authority" means more than "orders.” It means the final judge, the court of last appeal • •

Neither Yon nor the Crowd SOME SAY: Nobody can tell me what to do; I do as I please. There is no authority I am bound to recognize. Such a person has an authority, all the same: himself. For him, “what I want” and “what I like” are the only reasons for anything and all the reasons he wants. Now aside from the fact that such people are a nuisance to all concerned, and the fact that they can’t even prentend to be Christians, this point of view won’t work. The person who acts as his own authority runs into others who take themselves as their authority, and the result is the awful mess called anarchy. So all sensible people do recognize some authority outside themselves. They want approval from outside, from above. But whose approval do they want? Under whose jurisdiction, as lawyers would say, do they live? Some recognize only that vast and vague authority known as “Everybody.*’ If everybody does it, it must be right. If nobody does it, it’s bound to be wrong. Well, this is not necessarily so. Fifty million Frenchmen can be wrong, or 150 million Americans for that matter. You can’t take a vote and decide what’s right and what’s wrong by a simple count of Ayes and Noes. Neither you alone, nor a crowd no matter how big, can be the final Authority on Life. • • • Calendar, Code, Conscience ANOTHER proposed authority, believe it or not. is the calendar. Some people will not read a book or see a show or wear a dress or listen to music that isn’t up to the minute. If it’s “dated” it’s dead, unless the date is today. That is silly, on the face of it. But there are other more respectable authorities which are still not THE Authority. One of these is the Law. If it’s legal it’s right, say some people, and it can’t be right unless it’s legal. There is something true in this, of course. We should by all means obey the laws, and also see that good laws are made and bad ones repealed. But law is not the final authority on right and wrong. Lawmakers can make mistakes. What is a good law at one time may be a bad law under other circumstances. The best laws can never catch up with the morals of the best people. Still other people take as their authority conscience, meaning their own conscience. This is not quite the same as taking your own wishes or pleasure for your guide. Your conscience may lay unwelcome burdens on you. But while every one should of course follow his conscience, still anybody’s conscience can be asleep or mistaken. Some of the worst crimes tn history have been committed by some of the most conscientious people. • • • God’s Last Word WHAT, THEN, Is the highest authority for the Christian? Nothing and no one less than Jesus Christ himself. As we were think-, Inga few weeks ago, the very word "Christ’’ is a symbol of authority at the highest leveL In Jesus* day there were two supreme symbols of God: the Law and the Temple. Jesus not only assumed superiority to the Law, but (as our Lesson reminds us) of the Temple itself, though he was no priest and had no ecclesiastical position whatever. If there is a difference between Christian and non-Chrio-tlan today, it is not that Jesus is the authority for one and not for the other; rather it is that the non-Christian refuses to recognize what is the fact: that for us and for all men, Jem Christ to God’s "last word” to mankind. And if some say that the law of love to the supremo authority. Is there any real difference between the spirit of Jesus and the law of Ibvo? For he to God’s love incarnate.

■W MUCH ELECTRIWAIiIti ; ; hoosiers usiNtfiMßaaaia COMMUCIAIB AS MUCH! I : ■■■ ■ to—aBBBUT/ ‘ f r-—r— 1 N • Use of electric power in Indiana has been growing by leaps and bounds in recent years, spearheaded by the amazing increase in use by the many indus- n tries of the State. In 1940, industries served by the electric companies of Indiana used 1,656,910,542 kilowatthours of electricity, and during the year 1950 they used over 2Vi times as much ... a total of 4,361,895,246 kilo<katt-hours. It has meant a great deal to every Hoosier worker that the electric companies of Indiana have been able to supply this rapidly growing industrial demand for electric power, as well as fill the fast-increasing needs of all their other customers, including those who depend on us for the power they receive through their REMC’s or municipal systems. But supplying all these electric needs is both our responsibility and our obligation. That is why, since equipment again became available after V-J Day, we have been pushing forward , i the biggest electric expansion program in Indiana history . . . a 500 million dollar program which will have increased the generating capability of the Indiana Electric Companies from 931,700 kilowatts in 1940 to 2,568,400 kilowatts by the end of 1953.

tinues throughout the months to follow until the next county fair. In Kosciusko County, 4-H Home Economics members have been urged by Mrs. Ruth Snellenberger. Home Demonstration Agent, to ' carry on 4-H project work re- ' quirements throughout the entire , year. In this manner the doing of i the work requirement can be more a part of everyday family living and not something extra for the summer, she states. Four or five 4-H clubs have been having meet- | ings regularly since last year’s 1 fair. Others have organiled during January and February so that by the first of March all but three I of the 4-H Home Economics clubs have started activities. I It is sincerely hoped, says Mrs. Snellenberger, that 4-H club meetings will not be so frequent during the school year as to interfere with school activities. | For carrying out 4-H activities high praise and much appreciation is given to the 4-H adult leaders |of whom almost all are volunI teer leaders in Kosciusko County, i Last year there were 38 4-H iHome Economics adult leaders | and 21 4-H Agriculture adult leaders who were responsible for carrying out the county program. | Mrs. Gertrude Metzler, of , Huntington. was a week-end guest ; of Mrs. Estelle Swartz.
