YOUR KIDS AND MINE By RAYMOND LETSCH The custodial workers in our schools often co "not receive the thanks and cooperation they deserve. Every scnool day they have our rooms, halls and rest rooms tidy and clean and warm. With the end of a school day approaching we find them ready for their day’s work. They sweep and dust,

wash blackboards, trash, clean windows and do all the other chores necessary to have the school ready for the ’ next day. During the summer the painting and replacement and repairs are done to keep the building and grounds looking nice for another year. The attitude of the students in school sometimes is not an appreciative one. They often take the custodial services for granted. Some boys and girls make more work by dropping papers and tracking in dirt. Perhaps some mothers are thinking, “I have to keep reminding them to pick up

after themselves at home too.” This is our responsibility, we as parents and we as teachers, to encourage our youngsters to be considerate of the work others do for them. They should develop an appreciation for any public servant whether he be janitor, policeman, foreman or teacher. We all must encourage a helpful attitude in our youngsters toward those who serve us, especially our custodial staff. « Another group of people who work so hard to please is our hot lunch staff. They prepare a hot meal school days to provide our growing boys and girls with a balanced meal and good nourishment. The menus are planned to cater to the tastes of youngsters and still provide all the necessary, minerals and vitamins for active boys and girls. Naturally all youngsters Won’t be pleased with a particular lunch. Some few youngsters are never satisfield. Perhaps you mothers are saying, “Yes, but my Johnny or Susie is so finickyt” It is a most difficult task to prepare in large quantities, tasty appetizing noon meals. If we condone complaining and criticism of the menus at home and at school, children will learn to -be particular. If on the other hand we develop a postive, appreciative attitude toward eating our youngsters will get a lot more good Out of the food. There is a most important psychological principle in this attitude toward our eating. When we feel thankful and appreciative for our food, our system can digest the food better and it will do us more good. When we are complaining and finicky the food tends to lump in our throats. Our cooks are entitled to our thanks and appreciation for preparing such appetizing, healthful lulfthes at such a reasonable cost. We should all encourage in Your Kids and Mine an appreciation for the work of our school cooks and custodial staff. You are invited to write,about your concerns, questions, or prob-

Judge Murray Charges Halleck With Extravagance Judge Jack Murray, Circuit Court Judge at Knox, spoke before a Democratic rally Friday night at Winona Lake. Murray is Halleck’s opponent this fall. A portion of Judge Murray’s remarks were as follows: “Charlie Halleck is always complaining of how the Democrats are taxing us to death. I want you folks to know that I am not in favor of the many extravagances that exist both here at home and abroad. I pledge that if I am elected to Congress, I will spend your tax dollars economically. Can my opponent, Charles Halleck, say the same? Let’s look at the record of the last Congress that just adjourned: (1) Congressman Halleck voted to increase the national debt limit to more than 300 billion dollars. (2) Just a few weeks ago he voted for this country to spend 100 million dollars in order to purchase United Nations Bonds. It seems that outfit is broke and that Russia won’t pay her assessment. So Charlie comes along and says, that’s OK —America will pick up the tab. (3) A few weeks before that he even voted to send our tax dollars over to Communist Yugoslavia. Now it would seem to me that Halleck, with a record like this in the last Congress, certainly cannot complain that the Democrats are to blame for our high taxes. How Charlie Halleck could vote for all these measures and still not get us our Port here in Indiana, and still not get us our proper share of defense contracts, is beyond me. I say, Charlie Halleck should do as much for us here in the Second District as he has done for communist Yugoslavia and other communist nations.” SENATOR HARTKE PRAISES KENNEDY ACTIONS ON CUBA Senator Vance Hartke (D-Ind.j returned to Washington over the past week end for a third State Department intelligence briefing on the Cuban crisis. A noon hour briefing has been set up for Sunday, Oct. 28, to bring the Hoosier lawmaker a-> breast of developments while he• has been in Indiana. Senator Hartke was called to the State Department Tuesday after President Kennedy announced to the nation that evidence had been found of a build-up of offensive missiles in Cuba and that ships bound for that island would be turned back or sunk if they carried arms for offensive use. He was briefed again late Wednesday prior to leaving for speaking engagements in Indiana. Senator Hartke discussed the CubaA situation on Issues and Answers over ABC Television Sunday afternoon from 3 to 3:30 p. m. eastern time. Senator Hartke said that he has been given evidence that President Kennedy acted “as soon as evidence had been compiled that the arms build-up in Cuba was not for defense, but rather for an attack.” The Indiana Senator said the President acted with “vigor, decisivenss and force while exercising the kind of control which is so important in this kind of situation.”

A Fall Meditation I walked today in a garden fold And serene and soft was the Master’s voice ( Amid the moss rose—a row of marigold “This the way and to you the choice.” Have I not heard before this plea “His yoke is easy, the burden light?” Standing on a hill ’neath a linden tree, Its umbrella betwixt the brow and bright. Here today, gone tomorrow, I thought. “ ’Tis true,” He answered. “Why the race?” And what counts now—is it for nought? “All is for good in eternity’s face,” The day is fourteen hundred forty minutes. . What the remembrance of things said and done? “The pattern of living, its broad silhouettes Will determine what glories are lost or won.” The atom, the rocket —will they destroy? Does destiny doom our American life? “Direction and force are His to employ, His kingdom survives both sword and strife.” The autumnal equinox ebbs away And Cppe Canaveral—chapters of time, But in the garden He walked today, His voice reassuring, His truth sublime.

Singing Boys Os Mexico To Sing At Lakeland Civic Music Association

The famous “Singing Boys of Mexico,” considered one of the finest choirs in the world, will appear Tuesday, Nov. 6, at 8 p. m. at the Winona Lake auditorium, Lakeland Civic Music Association officers announced today. The group is composed of 28 seli ected voices under the leadership lof Maestro Luis Berber, and has | an extraordinary history. For over 200 years the tradition of great music has been nurtured in the oldest Conservatory of Music in the Americas. . This is the picturesque Colegio de las Rosas in Morelia, founded in 1743. Here < the boys of the famous choit, | “Los Ninos Cantores de Morelia,” | study and sing, as hundreds of others have sung before them. In 1949 the director of the conservatory, Maestro Miguel Bernal Jimenez, determined to form a choir which would rival the best in the world, and seeking the best possible leadership, prevailed upon Maestro Picutti, then leader of the Vienna Choir Boys, to come to I Morelia. At the death of Maestro ! Picutti in 1956, Luis Berber, his ! star pupil and assistant director, I was appointed director. Area Officers $ Several area people have been named to the board of directors of the association for the 1962 concert year. Mrs. E. A. Fosbrink of Syracuse and Mrs. Robert Maish of r 1 Leesburg were elected to serve for one year. Mrs. Lewis Immel of Syracuse will serve for two years. Mrs. Robert Allen of Leesburg and Victor Beer of Milford will serve for three years. Dribs ... And ... Dabs By DORIS DARNELL On a trip through southern Indiana, the expected beauty of foliage was quite disappointing. Our trees right around here are still more colorful than any seen there. The annual trek to Brown county must have been a fruitless one this year to the thousands of people expecting to see something spectacular. The side trip to Santa Claus, Ind., was a delightful one, and you came out with carols ringing, and with the spirit of Christmas upon you. Our state is well worth an exploratory trip. They tell me that Johnny and Mary had a very successful Halloween party Saturday night at the Beacon. A couple of the fellows told Mary that they had decided to quit shooting rabbits, since they didn’t realize they were so pretty. Mary made an adorable rabbit, but no comment will be made (publicly) about Johnny’s costume! Annie Gallahan provided the organ music for the festivities, and a good time was had by all. Frances Koontz of the Wawasee Laundromat has all the attributes everyone looks for in a friend. She stands by her convictions and that in itself puts her head and shoulders above most people.

Blanche Bates is another of the same caliber. Although her political or religious beliefs may differ from yours, she intelligently realizes that these same differences make our country great. She believes in loyalty to a friend, devotion to a duty, and. gives much of herself to the promotion of -.her ideals. Seems to me that a bird in the hand is all right if you’re sure that’s what you want. There was an article in one of the magazines about “The Art of 'Marital Fighting.” We need-les-•sons yet? . * Dee says that maybe it isn’t I ethical, but you can throw the op- ! position off balance if you suddenly quit pushing.
