PILGRIMS ot 1938

Tht* 'till cliill of a Xovomhor momin.ir, .'517 years ago, iravc no indication of man’s toolings. Silent men, with flintlocks shouldered, and pale women, their cowls drawn close, dipped silently through early wint r’s snow. And there were smiles on their laces— smiles of thankfulness for a haven that responded to

their diligent toil so immificiently.

Perhaps we of the streamlined twentieth century come hv our comforts too easily; perhaps wo tail, at times, to evaluate our ease of self-provision. But the “pilgrims” oi Itt.ltS are likened to those of 1(>21—all consummately appreciative of past blessings—all surpassingly confident of their hopes in the future.

A. A. U. W. Meeting Was Held Tuesday

LEGISLATIVE MEASURES IN COMING SESSIONS SUBJECT

OF DISCUSSION

Legislative measures which are likely to be proposed and perhaps adopted in Congress and the Indiana state legislature in forthcoming sessions formed the subject of discussion at the November meeting of the Greencastle branch of the American Association of University Women which was held last evening at the Rector Hall Recreation Room. Possible legislative proposals in the three fiehis of Education, International Relations and Social Studies were presented by the members of those special committees of the local A. A. U. W. branch, and each section was ably and clearly discussed. Mrs. Frank Donner, chairman of the Social Studies group, cited for four most prominent social problems which have been and will be affected by legislation, namely consumers’ education, social welfare, government versus industry, and labor standards. Of the three proposals which were brought to action in the last session of Congress, two—a revision of the food and drug act and protection of consumers from unfair trade practices—were successfully carried into enactment, and agitation, will likely be seen on the third—-Ufe establishment of a consumer agency and the repeal of the Miller-Tydings Act. Labelling, food protection, and price and quality control wMl probably be concerned in this tmrd suggestion. Other schemes wlich may merit attention in the coming session are organized medical se Increase in the social aids able to the aged, invalids, dren. Consideration of problem, Mrs. Donner said imperative in the comlni

legislative session.

Mrs. John Boyd’s concis<

presenta-

tion of the measures conce ning Education which may arise in the state set two goals as the objectives of educationally-minded persons: first, the change of the state supbrintendency of schools from a political to a professional status and, secomlly, thei removal of the township trustee position from politics. Other measures which should receive consideration, included aid to libraries, teacher retirement 'lowering the age limit for retirement and raising the amount of pension), increase of state allotment to schools, and change in source of income for local schools. As for possible Federal measures to come up for action, the most outstanding is Federal aid for education, in the form of a general grant for elementary and secondary schools which need help, vocational education, youth assistance, erection of buildings, adult education, rehabilitation of the disabled, and other items. Also to be considered will probably be the Neely Bill which seeks to prevent block booking of

movies.

Mrs. F. M. Vreeland, chairman of the International Relations study group, and two members of her committee, Mrs. Jennie Del<ong and Mrs. David Houck, employed the form of question-and-answer interview in presenting the third discussion on “The United States and Neutrality.” Mrs. Vreeland’s part in the round table answered the general question of “What is Neutrality?” and the several constructions which the term allows. “The United States and Neutrality’’ was Mrs. DeLong’s topic and involved the present Neutrality Act and its implications and flaws of enforcement. In her answers relative to “Some Question Concerning Neutrality” Mrs. Houck summarized the difficulties inherent in attempted

neutrality.

During the regular business meeting conducted by Mrs. Glenn W. Biddings prior to the program, Miss Rozelle Rutter spoke briefly of the plans for the Fellowship activities for this year and cited some of the present outstanding A. A. fellows. The study group announced will be given the near future.

Reading Group To E-. Organized Soon

A reading group for all women | interested in membership in Epsi-, Ion Sigma Omicron is to be organ-; ized at the Greencastle City Library

at 7:30, November 30th.

Epsilon Sigma Omicron is a national educational honor sorority which is open to all women who arc members of a federated club and who have completfed ijour reading courses from the American Library Association, the United States Department of Education, or from Indiana or Purdue Universities. There are more than a hundred courses from which to choose -courses in literature, the arts, home making, dietetics, the sciences, social science, philosophy, history, biography, and journalism The number of books required for each course varies from seven to thirteen, depending upon the subject matter. The cost is indeed a nominal one—one dollar for one j course, or three dollars for th? fourj courses necessary for Epsilon Sig-j ma Omicron membership. The reading may be done individually or with!

a group.

Membership in the group which is to be organized is not Invitational; any woman interested in knowing more about th? sorority, the courses, and the general plan for the reading is invited to attend the first meeting and to join this group if she wishes. In all probability this reading group will become affiliated with the General Federation of Clubs, so |

Dr. Dettloff spoke before fiftyfive members of the Cloverdale P. T. A. Study Group Monday evening. His subject was, “Social Hygiene for the Adolescent,” which he approached from a four-fokl viewpoint. In each phase of his balk he made very interesting comparisons between primitive and modern a(pproeche)B to the adolescent problems. He stressed especially the importance of preparing the child for his detachment from the family, in order that he may take hig proper place in society; the proper information conceiYiing his social and mental contacts and habits; and the importance of teaching him to assume responsibilities.
