Mrs. C. Spurgeon Coile and Miss Connie Hopkins were presented corsages and a scroll signed by the mothers of the children in the Rhythm Band, and by the Presi dent of the PTA, expressing the group’s deep appreciation of the effort made by the two faculty members to give the children the happy experience and cultural advantage of participation in the Rhythm Band. The day of the meeting was the birthday of the Winterville Sche ol’s “First Lady”, Mrs. Hugh Carl ton Towns, who will soon coinplete her firtieth year of teaching and her thirty-ninth year in the Win terville Elementary School.

March 18 — Women this year will take a greater part in American politics than ever before, Mrs. James B. Patton, President General, Daugh ters of the American Revolution declared here today. The very security of the homes is at stake in the domestic and in ternational problems now con fronting the nation, she emphasiz ed in an address before the Geor gia State Conference at the Ansley Hotel. Mrs. Patton said: “The hand writing is plain. It is time to return to principles of honesty and thrift and build up our defense under safeguards which garantee American inde pendence of action. A nation honey combed with organized crime, with scandals in public office and rising inflation and unwise spending can not long endure against the red tide. “Women today“are taking a more active interest in international af fairs. They are thinking about high prices and high taxes, of the depreciating value of their sav ings.” Mrs. Patton declared that patri otic women oppose socialistic trend in the United Nations. “We in sist,” she said. ‘“that American participation in international or ganiza§ons be confined to specific, proposals, and not blank checks. We want absolute freedom of ac tion in regard to American affairs. “We oppose signing any pact or agreement which will strip the United States of any of its soverei gn rights. Unless we are watchful we can be persuaded into signing a pact in which American inde pendence will be destroyed.” Mrs. Patton used as her theme the “Pathway of Patriots” pointing out out that it is as difficult a path to travel today as in the time of the pioneers. It is the duty of the citizen, she as serted, to go to the polls and vote and she urged women to begin working now to get out the vote. “We cannot expect to have able representatives if we do not take an interest in our primaries and go to the polls and vote for our duly nominated candidates,” Mrs. Pat ton said. “The pathway of patriots leads to the voting booth.” Mrs. Patton praised the “fear less reporting” of the press, radio ‘and television in alerting citizens ‘to the dangers which exist both at home and abroad. She urged her listeners to oppose any attempt to curtail freedom of the press. Speaking of many of the nation al policies of the Daughters of the American Revolution, Mrs. Pat ton referred to the fight against the world government proposal and against displaying the United Nations Flag above or in equal prominence with the flay of the United States. “Proper display of the United Nations flag,” she said, “ijs at the headquarters of the United Nations and at the sessions of the U. N. and not on flag staffs with the American flag or in school rooms or public buildings in this country.” Mrs. Patton reported that the DAR now has a membership of 170,000 members, is steadily grow ing and is in flourshing condition. Its programs of aiding youth in re sponsibiliites of citizenship, in helping the underprivileged, and in building patriotism are winning increased suport, she said. * % " Florida Art Being Shown In Ga.

Mattiwilda Dobbs, winner of the Marion Anderson scholarship who is making a European concert tour, sang selections from Mozart and Schubert and several negro spirituals at the concert hall last night. Said the Stockholms-Tidningen: “Miss Dobbs demonstrated an overwhelming charm and an ad mirable voice culture. We have got another great songstress.” A critic of the Svenska Dagbla det “wrote: “The very height of the program was Schubert’s “Night and Dreams,” which she sang with such intimacy, such an inspired expression, that you held your breath.” This was the singer's only Stockholm appearance. She will leave for Paris tomorrow. SNOWSHOE POSTMAN RAWLINS, Wyo.—(AP)— Jack Bechtold, Dixon mail carrier, hopes for an early spring.

ELIOT Chief, Children's Bureau The Nation has a right to be proud of the great strides it has made in cutting down deaths of babies. % In 1915, we were losing, in their first year of life, 100 babies out of every thousand who were born alive. By 1950, this figure had been cut to 29, But despite all the scientific gains in this century, despite all be have learned as doctors, nurses, and parents, too many babies are dying, most of them needlessly. The trauble spots now on infant deaths can be broken down into certain localities of the country. In some areas, which are isolated from the hospitals and the medical knowledge found in metropclitan communities, the death rate of ba bies, even recently, was at least a fifth higher than in the country as a whole. This high rate of baby deaths holds in nearly 2 per cent of the counties of the Nation. A recent study of these counties shows that if their infant mortality rates had been as low as the rate for the whole country, each year we could save 40,000 babies who now die in their first year of life. Many of these trouble spots are in the southwest, particularly New Mexico and Arizona, in southern Texas, and in some sections of the South and South Atlantic regions. Of course ,there is much more to saving babies’ lives than good medical attention. To solve the problem fully, attention must be paid to low incomes. Low incomes mean poor housing and too little food, as well as too little medical care—all reasons why babies die. And communities must look to their sanitation. This means assuring clean milk for mothers and babies, making their water safe to drink, provid ing adequate garbage disposal, controlling flies and other germ carriers through the use of DDT and other recently developed germicides. < The habits of the people them selves, their customs as family groups or as members of a com munity must be taken into con sideration. And we need to provide health workers, who know how to start with what people have and help them to use these resources to go on to something better. The job of saving babies’ lives must be one of the first calls on the staff of a local health unit. Getting adequate services is a problem that can be licked, be cause it is on its way to solution in our big cities and surrounding areas. It is time now to find ways and means of fighting infant mor tality wherever any vestige of it remains in our semi-rural and rural areas. . % - Oldest church parish in the United States is said to be that of St. John’s Episcopal Church, Hampton, Va., established in 1610.

Lay, South Lumpkin street, was opened for the March meeting of the Wonian’s " Bible class of the First Methodist ‘ church ' Tuesday, the 4th, with a large number in attendance. The floral decorations of jon quils and green potted plants fea tured a color scheme of yellow and green, After the Lord’s Prayer prayed in unison, the President, Mrs. L. M. Carter, presided over the bus iness period hearing 12ports of the various officers. Following the business session Mrs. Lay presented Mrs, Dow Kirkpatrick, who gave the de votional. She began her talk by saying she was asked by a man if, “Love thy Neighbor as tuy self,” was found in the Bible, This gave Mrs. Kirkpatrick the idea for her devotional by asking the class in what book of the Bible were some twenty-five verses found, notably to cite a few: “Am I my Brother’s keeper.” God said, “Let there be light,”” “All is van ity.” “Let the wicked forsake his way.” The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places.” ‘Love suf fereth Long and is King.” Mrs. Kirkpatrick concluded by reading an article, “What upheld Livingston” (quoted from the Methodist Recorder, the official paper of British Methodism). “My memory of the words Liv ingstone used when the Universi ty of Glasgow honored him by making him a Doctor of Laws has just been revived. When he ap peared on the platform the usual ly boisterous students received him with silent respect and rev erence, He was gaunt and weary from exposure to sixteen years of African sun and twenty-seven at tacks of African fever. One arm had been rendered useless by the bite of a lion and hung helpless at his side. There stood a real hero, and his presence inspired a feeling of awe in the minds of all present, When he gave thanks for the honor conferred on him, he told the audience that he was going back to Africa, partly to open new fields for British commerce, partly to suppress the slaving of the Arabs, and partly to open the way for the preaching of the Gos pel. He was heard with breath less interest and respect, but the words that stirred all hearts most were these: “Shall I tell you what supported me through those years of exile among a people whose language I could not understand, and whose attitude toward me was always uncertain, and often hos tile? It was this: “Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” Mrs. Max Hubert conducted two contests, “Stitches.” What kind of stitches are used in sewing and “nut cracking” featuring the names of nuts, which was most interesting. Mrs, James Lay was especially good in two humorous readings, “Baby Sitting” and “Mud Pies.” Mr. Randall Sims, who has been in Korea and Jagan for nineteen months, brought back a collection of Japanese and Korean hand work and palntings on cloth. He loaned these articles to Mrs. Lay for the meeting, Gorgeous is a mild word to use. The work was truly wonderful. Every one en joyed looking at the lavish dis play. At the end of the pleasant meet ing, Mrs. Lay, assisted by Mrs. James W, Lay, Mrs. J. C. Cle=- ments, Mrs, J. R. Evans, Miss Liz zie Hale, Mrs. A. F. Pledger, and Mrs. G. A. Tucker, served frozen strawberry shortcake.

The survey is part of a continuing project to determine variationg in the cost of food for Athenians. After the second survey is coms= pleted this month, the price fi gures will be made public, and a comparison of the cost of food from one month to the next can be made. According to Dr. J. Whitney Bunting, director of the Bureau of Business Research, the cost-of living figures released for the Athens area can be compared with those of other cities in Georgia where such price surveys have been underway for some time. He added that the initial sucess of the project here must be credit ed to the Athens merchants who have keen interest in the survey and have displayed an unusually high degree of cooperation with the student pollers, Dr. Bunting pointed: out that although all retail food stores are not being polled, all sections and marketing districts of the city are represented.
