i Rotary Club Meets The Syracuse-Wawasee Rotary club met Monday evening at the Pickwick Lounge, with vice-pres-L ident James Kirkwood in charge. . ■ ‘ • CP . The program was furnished by I Bernard Fitzgerald, on the manufacture and uses of plywood. Mr. i Fitzgerald was in Detroit on busii ness, but had secured a sound movie, in color, which was run by Court Slabaugh. The movie showed how plywood is manufactured from the time the trees are cut in the forest, until the finished products are turned out in the manufacturing plants. Rotarians Ross Osborn and Ken Harkless were reported still ill—Ross at home, and Ken still in the hospital at Milwaukee. John Sheire is attending Rotary meetings in Florida. Milt Wysong, member of the local club, was the speaker Monday night at Winchester, Ind. He is a “traveling booster” for the local community, speaking at various civic meetings all over the state. Monday night at Winchester, a call was made for Rotarians who had great-grandsons over 30 months old — and Milt was the only one to speak up. He has a great-grandson 38 months I old. Matty Jones is in charge of the program next Monday night, and he will have as guests the county superintendent of schools, Glen Whitehead, and Owen Fry, in charge of visual education for all schools in the county. All members are urged to be present. Select Seed Corn By Performance Lafayette, Ind., Feb. 4. —Selection of seed corn for the 195'2 crop will be easier if the new Purdue University circular “1951 Performance of Private and open-Pedigree Corn Hybrids In Indiana” is used as a guide. The circular is published by the Agricultural Experiment Station and is available from the University, free. The authors, James Newman, S. R. Miles, and Paul Crane, agronomists, suggest that when selecting a hybrid, the farmer should first decide from experience what growth period (“maturity” or earliness) is suitable for the field to be planted. This depends on the location of the farm and on the soil type and condition. ' Once hybrids with this growth period or a slightly shorter growth period are located, one of them is chosen which has a consistently good performance record. Select hybrids by specific number rather than by brand name. Performance tests show that no one seedman has a monoply on superior seeds. After choosing a hybrid, buy seed of good quality, the Purdue men say.

Over 40,000 Letters Received at Santa Claus SANTA CLAUS, Ind.—The town of Santa Claus, famous for its name, received more than 40,000 letters this year. A Tennessee mountain boy wrote and asked Santa to send his father an ax and his mother a bucksaw jso they could cut wood for their cabin stove. “Dear Santa,” the boy wrotje. “We are nearly out of firewood for our stove. Would you please send daddy a sharp ax and please send mom a bucksaw.” The letter was passed on to the town’s American Legion post by the post office. It was answered, as are all the letters that have a return address. One of the most touching came from a mother of four youngsters living behind the iron curtain in Budapest, Hungary. She wrote in hopes that somehow Santa might visit her children. “We are not allowed to have Santa Claus in Budapest,” she wrote. "We would like to be remembered in som§ way but doubt if It can be done. 4 "Perhaps you will not even get this letter.” I , Lillian Butner of Neb., a bedfast invalid of 80, sent a big box of doll clothes she made. She asked the legion to pass the clothing on to- needy children in Santa’s name. Most of the letters were written In childish scrawls from wistful children asking for toys. The legionnaires found that most Texas boys asked for saddles and spurs. California and Florida children wanted swimming and sailing plaj things. Kids in northern states wante i sleds, skis and skates.

SENIOR MOTHER'S CLUB "Govern thyself, and you will be able to govern the world,” was the theme of the program given Monday at the Senior Mother’s Club meeting, in the Gilbert George home. It was given by five High School students. Jane Kroh was chairman, and members of the panel discussion group were Audrey Hamman, Patti Kitson, Janet Kitson, and Eric Larson. Janet took the of Philip Nine, the original panel member, who was unable to take part because of illness. jane addressed the club, giving the topic for discussion, and said, “We decided on panel discussion instead of a debate,” as in the club program. “We feel this subject is hard to discuss, especially before a Mother’s Club, as they are supposed to tell us, instead of us "telling them, but we shall try to do our best.” The chairman then called on Audrey Hamman, who gave a short talk on well known international leaders, their influence to gain followers, indicating that although some leaders were not models of good character, still they had governed themselves to the extent that they were able to govern others, but she also said in effect, “that the right way was to exert leadership through good influence”. Patti Kitson was called on next and Patti was sure “if you govern the small world you live in (your home, circle of friends, and community) by your own example, it can widen, as each contact widens, it can actually govern the world.” Patti also said, “the smallest hair throws its own shadow,” and “be honest with yourself before you can be honest with others.” The next speaker, Janet Kitson, spoke of the ever current juvenile delinquency subject. Janet said, “we Teen Agers must govern ourselves before we may govern others, and eventually command respect, and leadership will follow-.” Janet also indicated that Teen Agers ’’should get good decent jobs, conduct themselves rightly, and show adults that not all teen agers were delinquent”. Eric Larson was the last speaker, and he was of the opinion that those who govern themselves through the Ten Commandments can eventually govern the world. Eric further indicated that “good moral standards should be followed, and even tho there seemed to be changes thru the ages, there can actually be no change in good morals, “even if girls do seem to ge getting home later.” The chairman then asked for discussion from any who cared to. While.the Mother’s were “getting

up steam,” the panel members informally took bits of each other’s talks apart, agreed and disagreed, each valiantly defending their own previous statements. This “spirited politeness” soon “fired” the club members into discussion also, which could have perhaps gone far into the night. The panel group chairman, however, brought the program to a graceful ending. The Club’s program chairman spoke a few words of appreciation to the students on behalf of the Mother’s Club, for their very fine work and also to Miss Lillian Hammon, high school teacher. Miss Hammon is always so able, and pleasantly willing to help on any request made to her? The club president, Mrs. Pete Hilburt, also thanked the group and Miss Hammon, and indicated that a Mother’s Club is a rightful place for their young people to take part in programs, right and fitting, and very enjoyable. Refreshments were served (before the high schoolers could get away) of cookies, coffee, and a delicious concoction of upsidedown pineapple-pie affair, by the hostess, Mrs. Gilbert George, and co-hostess, Mrs. Ray Frevert, with some assistance by club members, as the panel members, guests and club members made a total of some forty-five, present. Guests were Miss Lillian Hammon, Mrs. Charles Kroh, Mrs. Pauline Hamman, Mrs. Clayton Mock, Mrs. Roscoe Howard, former member, Phyllis George, and Mrs. James McClintic, a former member who had been through a seige of illness, was welcomed back into the club. Mrs. Harold Kitson won the Sunshine gift, but would not open it (we think it was candy). Mrs. Vern Brinkman, project 1 ® chairman, is conducting a silent auction at the next meeting (approved by the club) and it will be guest night also, so do not forget, bring your “pink-yellow-blue or white elephant”, baked goods, or what have you that will be sold “under the silent hammer”. Mrs. John Shenbarger of North Judson, spent the week end Here in the home of her daughter, Mrs. Catharine Connolly and family. CARD OF THANKS We want to thank all those those who aided us at the time of the tragedy and since, in any way. We appreciate the many kind words, the flowers, and acts of friends. We shall never forget you all. —Clyde Weaver and daughters Janet and Carol. _ More and more new dresses in cottons, linens, rayons, nylons, and silks coming in every day at La x Petite Shoppe.

BROWNIE SCOUT NEWS Two weeks ago on January 24, the Brownie Scouts held their investiture service. The meeting began with the Brownies forming a half circle and presenting the American flag and the Brownie Scout flag. Following the pledge of allegiance, eight girls explained what a Brownie does. Thirteen girls received their Scout pins and sixteen received year pins. Scout pins signify that a girl is officially a member of the Girl Scout Organization. Year pins represent the number of years a girl has been a Scout. The assistant leader and program chairman, Mrs. Lionel Bates, surprised the Scout leader, Mrs. Marshall Coy, by presenting her with a Scout leader’s pin. The investiture service was closed with the saying of the Brownie Scout Promise. The program the girls presented was given by: Michele Miller who played the piano; Diana Lung who played the accordian; a tap dance by Sherry Nordman and her younger sister Kay; Susan Fosbrink who played the piano; a song by Anita Rogers and Sherry Nordman; a piano piece by Marilyn Byrket; Patsy Hummel who tap danced, and ending the solos was Nancy Stump who played .the piano

LION'S CLUB MEETS The Syracuse Lions Club met on Wednesday night at the Hex Grange with 32 members present, and six guests. Mr. J. E. Hartzler, of Goshen, world traveler and lecturer, was speaker. His subject was "Something Wrong With 20th Century Culture”. Mr. Hartzler stated that there was only one world geographically, but many otherwise. He gave five differences that keep nations apart— religion, geography, language, philosophy and culture. His talk was extremely interesting to those present. Then ten little girls became Indians as they sang the song “Ten Little Indians.” The girls divided into two groups and did two different song and dance games. All the girls then formed one circle and sang three of our Scout songs. The program waij closed after the refreshments, consisting of cookies and orange drink, were served. The next meeting will be held Thursday, Feb. 14, after school at the Scout Cabin. This Brownie meeting will begin as soon as the girls arrive from school and will be over at 5 p. m.
