Eighth Grade Forms
Citizenship Club
The eighth grade room of .the local
school has been organized into a
“Good Citizenship Club” with the
following officers to serve the first
month: President, Margaret Powell;
Vice-President, Hyman Jones; Secre-
.tary and treasurer, Josephine Price.
The program committee consists of
Jaylee Montague as chairman, Annie
Mae Adams and Noah Wilson, Jr.
For the arrangement committee
Bernice Braswell, Thelma Kennedy,
Glenn Powell and Hugh Powell have
been chosen.
The flower committee is composed
of Ellen Pounds, Margaret Stanley
By circumstance, the setting was
built up for what happens in the
jealousy and cruelty of .the brothers
toward Joseph. From the very be
ginning envy was built up against
this young lad. It is true he was
different from the other sons of his
father in .that he was more gentle; he
was of a different temperament; he
was self-restrained; he was full of
great ideas.
Not only did these differences exist,
but the father of Joseph made it pro
nounced that he himself recognized
the contrast. For this discrimination
Joseph and his father both suffered.
The brothers became angry, and an
ger and hardness will make men as
cruel as animals. A pit of despair was
experienced by Joseph. While in this
damp, unscalable well, he thought of
the bright sunshine above him. But
by that painful experience his soul
was.made useful.
To further satisfy a jealous anger
the bro.thers plotted. We keenly rec
ognize that men who are persuaded
to do evil do ugly things. And thus
by that plotting Joseph was sold into
Egypt.
Favori.tism we cannot admire. But
love, as love, is a beautiful thing.
Parents, never let your affection be
disclosed if you care for one child
more than another. Jealousy is the
ruination of many homes. Jealousy
will create the very thing i.t imagines.
Oftentimes one child will excel an
other. A boy among several brothers
may become a star athlete; a girl
among a number of sisters may be a
genius in music. Then it is .that that
son, that daughter must be handled
carefully. The parents must be care
ful of the cultivation of mere pride,
and on the other hand, they must see
there is no limitation oi; handicap to
their respective talents. *At the same
time all other mmebers of the family
must be given equal concern.
To a mother whose son, among
three sons, finished his medical ca
reer, the writer said, ‘T know you are
proud of your son.”
Immediately her answer came, “I
am proud of all my children.”
Years later the writer to another
mother, upon hearing her young s.on
preach, remarked, “I know you are
proud of your boy.”
This mother answered, “I am proud
of all of my children.”
’Tis that equal concern that these
two mothers had that this message
conveys.
Favoritism always causes unhappi
ness; equal concern brings content
ment; favoritism makes lives miser
able; consideration bestows peace;
favoritism presents doubts; frankness
leaves satisfaction; favori.tism marks
the lack of team work; thoughtful
ness stamps cooperation; favoritism
imbibes jealousy; love creates joyous
relationships.
In every home there should be a
type of family atmosphere where the
members of the family can learn to
care more for one another. If love
flourishes there, God will have a
great place.
Someone has said that one of the
miracles of parenthood is the way in
which the heart opens to welcome
every newcomer into the family. The
heart has no limits to Igve. And no
love is ever wasted.
Build the family spirit by means of
this equal concern. Consider the ut
most good of all the members, and
in doing that, realize the home is the
place for the maximum in personality
development in facing together the
Christian challenge of stewardship
and service.
State College Hints
For Farm Homemakers
“No” should not be the final
answer. Give your prospect a chance
to change his mind.
By RUTH CURRENT
N. C. State College.
Your goves, handbag, your umbrel
la - and other accessories like these
are not the most important items of
your wardrobe but they deserve extra
care these days. Clothing specialists
suggest .that the habit of losing
gloves and umbrella is a good one for
American women to break. Buy a
glove-holder to attach to your pocket-
book if you are inclined to lose your
gloves, or sew a name tape on the in
side seam.
Take a tip from the sales person and
put your gloves on just as she tries
them on you: Ease fingers on first;
then thumb and palm. Turn rings so
the settings are toward the palm of
your hand. The best way to take most
gloves off is to loosen each fingertip,
turn the cuff back over the fingers
and draw the gloves off. Suede gloves
are an exception; try to work them off
easily without turning back the cuff
or pulling the fingertips.
After you take off a pair of gloves,
pull them gently into shape, blow into
the fingers, and lay them in tissue
paper in a flat box.
Don’t let your gloves get too dirty
before you clean them.
Watch for rips in your gloves and
mend them promp.tly. Always use cot
ton thread in sewing leather. Silk
thread will cut the leather and pull
out.
A silk umbrella that is not used for
a long time needs a shower bath once
in awhile. Clean a silk umbrella by
brushing it with a soft cloth.
Clean an oil-silk umbrella by wash
ing with mild soap and water. Rinse
off and dry in .the shade before clos
ing. Handle oll-silk umbrellas very
carefully in cold weather or the oil-
silk will stiffen and crack.
When you carry an umbrella of any
kind closed, keep strap buttoned to
prevent ribs from catching and bend
ing.
Hang your umbrella up in the
closet to keep it from sliding around
on the closet floor.

The Nation's steel mills are running out of
scrap. They haven't enough on hand for even
30 days more. When this is gone they may
have to shut down—for all new steel is 50%
scrap. Get your scrap ready to turn in now!
WHOSE BOY WILL
DIE BECAUSE YOU
FAILED?
Or maybe you don’t care!
We think you do. We feel that out
whole community is ready to rise up
and bring in the scrap as soon as you
get a chance. So you’re going to get
that chance!
T hink about it as revenge — a way
to get back at the scum who have
attacked us. Or think about it as a little
more protection for our fighting men
— something you, yourself, can do to
bring as many as possible home alive.
next few weeks or it may he too late!
Next week we’re starting the biggest
drive you’ve ever seen, to get in this
precious material. And you’re going
to pitch in, too, because this situation
is serious.
But think about it now — for the scrap
in homes, farms and faaories has got
to be moving to stockpiles within the
Maybe you don’t know what it means
to have production fall off. Maybe you
can’t imagine how it feels to be hunk
ered down in a foxhole wishing for
just one more clip of cartridges. Or to
see the enemy rolling through your
lines because you didn’t have just a
few more tanks.
Start looking around your place for
scrap today. If you’ve got a son in the
service, do it for him. Do it for the
neighbor’s boy - for those fine young
chaps you just passed, out on the
street.
Above all do it for your country ,..
and do it now!
