might be a
good thing to try it out on my brother while he was reading so, if it was not any good I could return it. Bob, at once, took a violent spell of sneeamg and coughing. Soon the clerks began to sneeze. I put it away in a hurry, but not quite soon enough. Mother heard the commotion. She guessed what had happened. She told me I should not have opened the sneezing powder. But it was too
late; the mischief was done.
The children of Miller School turned in 40 bags of milkweed pods which they collected. They received $8.00 for them which will go to the
Junior Red Cross Fund.
Fourtn grade of Miller School gave a play for the school Tuesday afternoon. It was a Hallowe’en play call-

High School News The State Teachers’ Association meeting was held October 26 and 27 for all teachers, administrators, and bus drivers. The program was composed of several general sessions at which nationally famous speakers talked on a vfriety of subjects, and of a large number of sectional meetings at which all types ot school problems are studied and discussed. The Greencastle High School A Cappella Choir was joined with for-ty-seven other similar groups in the music festival which featured the final night’s entertainment. Two Greencastle home economic? students were also participants in an extended discussion period undci the supervision of the state leaders. The sophomore class of Greenca;tle high school gave a Halowe’en party Wednesday evening for the freshman class. A word of welcome to the freshmen was given by the sophomore class presiuent, Richard Fulmer. The mistress of ceremonies was Dorothy Slavens. A very entertaining program which included the special initiation of many freshmen, was presented. The Greencastle High School Dance Band furnish'd the music for dancing. Refreshments of sandwiches, cider and doughnuts were served. Congratulations should be extended to the committees fn charge and all others who helped make the party a success. This year, the convocations arc in charge of the dramatics department. Last October 30th the third ^ctio’i of the first hour dramatics class gave a play, entitled “Alice’s Blue Gown.” Under the able direction of Miss Brendle, the play was a huge success. ^The characters were: Alice, Beverly Trembly; Mfss Prescott, Betty Evens; Patty, Joanne Canary; Dodo, Mary Jane Wamsley; Dizzv, Avery Hirt; Celesti, Betty Lou Hale; Jane, Carol Shirley; Lola. Laurette
Martin.
The play centered around a dress which Alice just had to have for a tableau After several attempts to get a substitute and calling all her girl friends, she found that her dress came by express and everyone is happy except Celesti, who wanted to take Alice’s place. The Home Economics Club had a weiner roast after school, Thursday. October 19 at Robe Ann Park. A business meeting was held also, and two members were chosen to go to Indianapolis during Teachers' Institute. They are Aria Jo Stites and Wilma Braden. A scrapbook made
by the club was also to be taken. On Tuesday, October 31st, a special convocation was called in order to read a constitution drawn up by the student council. It was received very well. Members from each grade (seven through twelve) will be on the council. We hope that Greencastle High School will soon be having a strong Student Council.

Columnist Makes a Plea: Votes for District Folk
Sees No Reason Ballot Denied Washingtonians
Even .After 1 This Happens,; American Women Can’.t.Relax
Even after Killer Hitler himself throws in the sponge, American women must not relax on saving used fats in their kitchens. Because it’s the Japs, not the Germans, who still have those territories in the Pacific that used to supply us with one billion pounds a year! Our fat salvage job isn t done until we blast the Nips out. In the meantime, every drop of used fats is urgently needed to help make the tons of munitions, medicines, synthetic rubber and soaps that are needed for final victory. So keep saving until V-J Day! Remember, the governtnent gives you 2 free red points for every pound. This message has been approved by IT'l A and OP A and paid for by Industry.
By HELEN ESSARY Central Press Columnist ft WASHINGTON—This Is a subjecl inlo which I have noL before pounded a typewriter. But here goes— I resent not being able to vote simply because I am a resident of the District of Columbia. When I consider what is happening in countries whose governments deny their people the right of suffrage, I feel intensely that I personally want to prove to myself that I live In a Is This nation whose people have the privilege of deciding on their form of government and on their admin- * ea "Y istrators. Democracy? More than ever before does It seem important to me to thus show myself that I am a citizen of a free country. Yet on the day when millions of Americans vote I must sit dumbly at home waiting for news on how other people have cast
their ballots.
It Is particularly annoying that the only reason I am prevented from voting is because I live in the District of Columbia which paradoxically under the circumstances is the center of the government which won't let me vote. If I had a residence In a state which permitted "absentee ballots” I should continue to resent the "no voting” rule in the capital of the most important nation on earth. How can we be expected to produce here anything but words? Suffrage being denied us, we must become gossips and Intrigantes. And another point—the most important—I've not yet heard one good reason why citizens of the United States living In the District of Columbia should be denied the right to vote. William Howard Taft in a capital centenary speech said the real reason the seat of the young republic had been moved from Philadelphia to the swamps of the Potomac was because when one important piece of legislation was being debated at the Congress in Philadelphia, members of Congress were waylaid and even beaten up with clubs in an effort to influence their voting. A particularly bad episode of this sort decided the government heads to move the capital to the flats into which we now have sunk our citizenship "where there would be no chance of outside influence and where we could keep the population from itself voting.” • • • • • FROM A RED CROSS GIRL SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE: “I have gone through cities only a few days after the infantry had passed through and I have visited places completely by-passed by the enemy. A day spent at Mont St. Michel eating the famous omelettes and climbing to the top of the cathedral spire . . . the bright sun, the wind and the ocean made me feel more like a tourist than an RC Doughgirl. “The people living In Mont St. Michel show no signs of having
been ‘occupied.’
“We came upon a horrible situation In a really ’occupied’ town yesterday. A boy had been pitching hay in the field and was blown up by a concealed land mine—a German booby trap. There was no undertaker but a nun who has been preparing the people for burial. It Is hard for me to understand the sort of Catholic resignation of some of these French to the fact that you cannot expect happiness
on this earth and so make the best of what you’ve got.
“There, for example, Is Madame Blanchemain, our cook. Old and fat, not very clean but with a devilish gleam in her eye. When I call for the people In the morning the three young boys who are always my passengers grab the back seat so there is no room for Madame
B. Undaunted, she climbs in and plunks her whole weight down on top of the boys, paying no attention
to their squeals.
“She took me to her poor little house today. A
shell had exploded in It and It was a shambles. She showed me her little aluminum cook pot with the
shrapnel holes In It and her linen torn to shreds. Wept when she talked, but next she offered me cider. Then sent me home with my
arms full of flowers and baskets of eggs.
"We can't decide where she sleeps unless it Is In her chicken coop. Yet she is not unhappy. Jokes all day with the boys and throws doughnut dough at them. Tomorrow we are going to drive to Bayeux to pick up her 23-year-old daughter who was ‘requisitioned’ by the Germans before the invasion and who has jusi been discovered.’*
