The Scout Oath and Law is worth rereading and remembering: ‘‘On my honor. I will do my best to do my duty to God and Siiy country, and t«> obey the Scout law. To help other people at all times, and to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight." Every Scout thus gains a philosophy \o live by all his life. ■ The week will mark the 55th annive'r•5.5 million boys are now members.

(HIPPED PLATES (HIP FRIENDSHIP „

Dear Amy: We have a couple that comes over to our house nearly every Saturday. She’ll say, “Are we in time for supper’** They do this every time. Late at night, we prepare something to eat (sandwiches, coffee, and pie), and in between time we serve a soft drink and chips. They also come over during the week. She says to her husband, “Well come on, honey, this isn’t Saturday night.” She invites us to come over to her place, but they come over so early that we don't have a chance to get out of the door. When we do get the chance to come over, she’ll set her table with chipped cups, dishes and old silverware. She has other nice dishes and silverware but doesn’t put them out. Why does she do this to me? What can I say to her and not hurt her feelings? A Friend Dear Friend: If you want your hospitality reciprocated, call this couple Saturday ' morning and tell THEM what time you and your husband will be over. Then they can t beat you to it And if you really liked these people and enjoyed their company, you wouldn't care about the condition of their dishes and silver. I'd rather break bread on a chipped dish with a true friend than eat cake on a perfect plate with a false one! Dear Amy: I a married man without children of my owr as yet, but some of our friends do have children. When these friends visit us, frequently their children are in danger while crawling about the other rooms of my apartment. How can I lessen the danger to their children without offending the parents? I have considered purchasing a play pen, but the idea sounds offensive. Perplexed Dear Perplexed: It seems that the people who should be concerned about the Welfare of their children are not. Since you are concerned about their safety, I see nothing wrong in either closing or locking the doors to the adjoining rooms, in your apartment. If your friends find your actions offensive they should leave their children at home.

To go to the expense of buying a play pen seems unnecessary to me. Dear Amy: ’ The person who signed herself “Unfortunate” sure doesn’t know the meaning of morality. This woman must be one big slob and certainly is a disgrace to womanhood. This beast calls herself a wife and mother! Some people would give their lives to have children of their own and would be proud, decent parents. But instead, this beast was blessed with children. Oh, what a pity! Tell this uneducated feline to go to the veterinarian. Maybe he could help her. Dogs run wLld—she should run with them. Mrs. F. Erhardt (Downers Grove, Ill.) Dear Amy: Couldn't help but give an answer to the female who signs herself “Unfortunate.” She sounds like an immature moron, one who is working at a job looking for a cheap thrill. How she can write a public letter ; like that one and have the gall i to say she neither feels guilty nor dirty is beyond me. j What happens to her chil- , drcn, or doesn't she care?

For exnTnpl<x—there is one rural electric generating plant in Kentucky, and another one under construction. There is one in Illinois .. • two in Michigan ~. one being built in Ohio.
