EDITORIALS A Step lowan) Consolidation
While the Lakeland schools are duly consolidated and have been effectively working as a consolidated school district, there are steps to be taken before the full effect of the consolidation is a complete reality. We feel the joint baccalaureate service, held Sunday afternoon at the North Webster high one of these important steps. Many of us must take some time to ‘‘think consolidation.” The joint baccalaureate was im-
Logic On Side Os Judge
Judges throughout Indiana and elsewhere should find it profitable to meditate on Circuit Judge A Ido Simpson’s decision to open the records of juvenile offenders to the press. Henceforth under the policy adopted by the Goshen judge, the press also will be admitted to all hearings. All he asks is that the press use discretion in coverage and abstain from publicizing the names of defendants under 14 except when the circumstances arer unusual —for exampl° when a major crime has been committed. Ix>gic is on the side of the judge. No self-respecting newspaper, radio or television station relishes turning the spotlight of publicity on juveniles who get into trouble. They lean over backwards to be fair. But there are times when, in the view
The True Meaning Os Memorial Day
What is Memorial Day? It is a day to honor our dead — those who paid the supreme sacrifice foo their country’s freedom. w The cause today is no less noble than it was at Bunker HUI in 1775, in the charge on Cemetery Ridge with Grant’s army in 1864, with the first U, S. troops to land in France in 1917," during the Normandy invasion on D-Day in 1944, or in Korea with the Gl’s in 1951. The citizens of our country should learn the true meaning and horror of war,

But, meanwhile, the program Sunday was an important step in bringing the Leesburg, North Webster, Milford and Syarcuse schools together as one cohesive school unit.
of self-respecting editors and publishers, no worthy purpose is served by silence. In fact the opposite is likely to be true, that the public interest will Buffer if the pubicitv spotlight is left turned off. This apparently is what Judge Simpson recognizes in his decision. What he has done, and done wisely in our opinion, is to inform juveniles and their parents that he will not go to unreasonable lengths to shield from publicity when the former is involved in lawbreaking. And he is telling the press that he will assist them in getting the facts in the interest of accuracy. These are legitimate interests of the court and the public. — So, Bend Tribune (Editor’s Note: Amen.)
and Memorial Day should serve as a reminder. This certainly, not out of fear, but as an ever present reminder to be vigilant to the dangers to freedom as we know it in America. War now seems too remote, and the noble principals for which these young men paid with their lives seems to have been almost forgotten. But Memorial Day is a time for remembering. All of America will be saluting the war dead on Saturday and we shall join them.

AT ONE TIME Indiana was about seven-eights covered with hardwood forests. Only a small area around Fowler and Kentland was prairie land. We have removed about 12 or IS million acres of woodland in a rather short space of time. Good timber is growing more and *. more valuable and we recommend good wood-lot management. Bob Martin, of the soil conservation service, or myself would be glad to assist in management problems. Mowing the lawn high in May, could mean less crabgrass trouble in August. The bhiegrass that we use on lawns is a good competitor and It can whip out other grasses and weeds if we would just give it a chance. Bhiegrass is a cool weather plant and makes its most abundant growth in spring. It also spreads in the spring. ft makes slower growth as summer progresses until ft reaches the dormant period in. late summer. It is then that the late growing grasses, such as crabgrass. make their move. Good mowing practices at a height of at least 1% inches, plus plenty of plant food can make the bluegrass so dense that the young crabgrass cannot compete. • • • There are some weed killers on the market that are not approved for crops that will be going Into any other use than for seed. They are not approved for soybeans that will be going to market My advice on all these chemicals is to use them exactly like they are supposed to be used. Someone is going to get into trouble some of days because of nsang chemicals for uses other than what they are approved for or for using them in too heavy dosages. The Pure Food and Drug Administration has almost unlimited authority over food products. They can condemn and impound shipments whenever there is reasonable doubt as to whether or not they are safe, ft is up to the owner then to prove that they are and that might be pretty hard to do especially ft some beans that were treated with a chemical that is limited only to seed prod-

Dear Amy: 1 * I'm a young fellow in my midtwenties and I have had the mis- I fortune of becoming completely I bald. I’m very embarrassed in < company and seldom go out with- 1 out a hat on. I want to buy a hair 4 piece but my father says it’s against nature. He is 25 years 1 older than I and has been bald for 10 years. What should I do? < Hairless < Dear Hairless: V® 1 If a hair piece will soothe your ; vanity, get one. What looks good i on father may not look good an i you ... yet! •• • | Dear Amy: I am writing this for a very ] dear old friend of mine who had 1 been invited on Mother’s day ; week-end to a friend in Philadel- i phia to stay a few days. Saturday ’ evening they had been invited for < a turkey dinner party and wanted 1 to take her along but she re- ] fused as her husband had died a ' few months before. She was not 1 in the mood for a party. So she left for home and forgot her * dress. Now those friends refused ! to give the dress when other 1 friends called for it. They want her to come and get it herself. I But she has high blood pressure, is over TO years of age and can 1 stand no more excitement Isn’t i there anything we can do about i this? Wanting to Help 1 Dear Wanting: Do your friend a favor by get- 1 ting in touch with these people and request they return her dress i for the reasons you mentioned. If 1 they still refuse, they are not to i be considered her friends. 1 •• • i Dear Amy: < My boss went to the hospital to- '< undergo surgery and he’s feeling 1 pretty low. A few of the fellows 1 suggested we chip in and send him something. Everybody had a 1 different suggestion. We ruled out a plant (too feminine), a basket 1 of fruit (nobody went for it) and 1 pajamas (they said let his wife 1 buy that). But the guys all agree ! on a bottle of liquor. They think he would appreciate that more ■ than anything else. What do you think? Is it In good taste? The Chairman )
uction just happened to get into the elevator. • • * We have missed the predictions on hog prices this spring. The price has not responded to the reduction in supplies. Hog sales are about seven per cent under what they were at this time last year and should, therefore, be about 15 per cent above last year’s price. One reason for this is the increase in beef supplies. There should still be an upturn in hogs this summer. We are producing meat at a lower level than any time in the last year. With many of the over-fat cattle now sold, the average weight of cattle on the market will be less and this combined with fewer hogs surely will help. * * * With com planting well under way it will be possible for some to get their first hay cutting made early. A good time to do this in alfalfa-grass hay is just as the first heads appear. The protein level and digestibility go down as the plants approach maturity. Early cut grasses can be twice as high in protein as mature plants. Other good reasons for early cutting is to encourage a rapid regrowth of the second crop. There is usually more moisture available earlier in the season and less competition from weeds.

Dear Chairman: Although your gift may he tasty to the boss, sending liquor to a hospital patient is a new one on me. His spirits may be low ... but your gift may make him ‘high’! Check with his Doc. • • • Dear Amy: My husband works in a large city about 60 miles from where our home is. He doesn’t commute to work daily but comes home just for the week-ends. By accident, I came across a letter from a girl (who lives in the city) addressed to him at his rooming house. The letter sounded as though they knew each other pretty well. When I questioned him, he explained that she was just a friend and there was nothing between them. As far as he was concerned, the incident was closed . . . but I called the girl. I didn’t let on who I was and pumped her. The story she told was much more romantic than my husband’s version. Amy, what should I do? I don't want to leave him and I have our children to think of. I know he still loves me. No Name Please Dear No Name: At a distance, your husband offers no resistance. A lonely man in a big city is a sitting duck for a slick chick.

I would like to get a place of my own but my fiance doesn’t want to antagonize her and feels we should live with her for a little while. What should I do? Bride-to-be Dear Bride: Start your marriage off right with a place of your own. Most mothers-in-law are grand if you don’t have to live with them. If you don’t have to, DON’T! .• * • Address all letters to: AMY ADAMS e/0 THIS NEWSPAPER For a personal reply enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope.

Non-Farm Employment 14,900 Above March A later estimate of Indiana’s nonfarm employment at mid-April set the total at 1,510,200, slightly below the early prediction but still 14,900 above the March figure. Lewis F. Nicoiini, director of the Indiana Employment Security Division, said that much of the improvement was seasonal and that the largest increase in employment was in the construction industry. Unemployment, estimated at 68, 300, was at the lowest point for April in 11 years. Indiana’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 3.9 per cent, compared to the over-all United States rate of 5.4 per cent. Os the larger areas in the state, Fort Wayne had the lowest rate, 2.8 per cent, and South Bend the highest, 8.1 per cent. Mr. Nicoiini said both manufacturing and non-manufacturing employment were higher in April than in March. Steel mills added 800 workers during the one-month period and the industry had about 62. 400 employees by mid-April. Automobile industry employment was down slightly with Studebaker layoffs overshadowing small increases elsewhere in the industry The electrical machinery industry added 1, 100 new employees between March and April mainly because of new government contracts. The seasonal increase in nonmanufacturing employment was slightly over that of April 1963. A/3C Richard Anders Graduates, Reassigned AMARILLO, Tex. — Airman Third Class Richard W.
