Aid to dependent children la an
integral part of the program of
public welfare. Through aid to de
pendent children, money payment!
are made poealble for needy de
pendent children who have been
deprived of parental care and tup
port because of the death, phyai
cal or mental incapacity or con
tinued abeence from the home of
one or both parenta, whether na
tural, atep or adoptive.
Let'i take a look at three faml
liea in a amall rural county which
have been strengthened, and child
ren wbo have been kept in achool,
through thia important program.
Take Peggy, for example. Her
father ia physically incapacitated
and cannot hold regular employ
ment. The family ia being helped
by a money payment from the aid
to dependent children program.
The caseworker from the county
department of public welfare haa
had many conferencee with Peg
gy's teacher thia year becauae of
Peggy's high I. Q. and the desire
to see that she had appropriate
help. Peggy la capable of doing
much more advanced work than
her classmates and her teacher
has given her additional work be
cause of thia. Thia family ia doing
everything they can to help them
selves and take great pride In
Peggy and her accomplishments.
In another family the father
suffered a severe concuaaion as
the result of an automobile acci
dent. There are four children In
the family and It waa necessary for
them to receive an aid to depend
ent children grant In order to
maintain even a minimum level of
living. The elder son haa now gra
duated from high school and la
employed. The older daughter,
Mary, ia an outatandlng student in
high school and haa a flair for
writing and editing, a talent which
ia being recognized by her claaa
matea and teachers, for she la on
the ataff of the school publication.
She haa received numerous honors
in achool, ia a member of the scho
lastic honor aociety, and hopea to
go to college. The public welfare
agency will help her toward ber
goal.
In itlll mother family where the
father la disabled and haa not re
gained hia health aufflclently to
support hia family, there are five
children. All are normal except
one little girl, who ia retarded,
and alao haa required special medi
cal attention. The parents were
heaitant about sending her to
school, but the caaeworker in the
county department of public wel
fare requested a psychological
evaluation. The parenta were co
operative. A* a result of this ex
amination, it waa suggested that
the child be included in a special
education claaa for trainable child
ren. She has progressed well In her
speech and other areas of learning.
Now the family la proud of her
accompliahmenta.

THESE SHRINERS STRUT THEIR STUFF AS THEY BEAT OUT MARCH TUNE SATURDAY IN BOONE
Health and Beauty
It has been fashionable for some
time now to eat healthfully. This
trend started on a small scale with
the "upper 400," so to speak, and
has at last come to be important
to all of us.
It would be hard to find a young
homemaker In America today with
out some very sound ideas on the
best ways to feed her family.
This is a tremendous step in the
right direction. Even high schools
now have classes in nutrition.
Doctors who have made long
studies in this field tell us that all
have Just begun to scratch the sur
face. Great things would be pos
sible through diet. Some believe
that many diseases we now con
sider incurable could be cured
through proper diet.
There is a great deal being writ
ten about "organically grown"
fruit* and vegetable! and those
grown with the help of commercial
plant food. The overpowering
opinion seems to be that, other
factors being equal, there is no
practical difference. However, all
doctors agree that much nutritional
value can be lost through careless
handling of fruits, vegetables, and
meats.
Eat fresh foods when you can.
The vitamina A and C content will
be higher. Frozen foods ? frozen
properly, are next. The main thing
you should look for is the added
elements to make fodds keep their
color, to preserve their freshness,
and to, in general, add to their
salability.
Cut down on your salt consump
tion. Refined white sugar serves
no good cause at all in a healthy
body.
These are juit a very few things
you should know if you want to do
the very best for your .family.
The husband who can walk into
an orderly house at the end of a
hard day at the office can count
himself lucky. He may be under
the delusiqn that housekeeping is
easy. Not only is "good" house
keeping hard work, it takes organi
zation and skill.
It is all but impossible to run a
household as it should be run
without a desk or "home office"
where the homemaker can snatch a
few sitdown minutes while outlin
ing the week's menus or paying
the monthly bill*. Far too few of
us have this bit of private space.
If we do have a desk, in most
cases it is used by Junior and Sis
for their homework, and even Dad
when he has a bit of work to bring
home from the office.
The sit-down desk for the home
maker cabeu elementary u a
shelf in a nichf. or a complete
deak flanked with file*. It can be
succescfully located anywhere ?
in the kitchen, dining room, living
room, or any place away from day
time traffic. If you will acquire
the habit of organizing your bouae
keeping, it will not only look ef
fortless, but will be much eaaier
for you. You will probably find
that you have a little more leisure
time to do some of the things you
really enjoy.
A good filing cabinet is almost
as important as a stove when you
are planning your home. The av
erage homemaker has endless
small articles, booklets, clippings
and extra key* for the home and
family car* that abe ia rwpooaible
for keeping track of. What better
way i a there to insure alwayt be
ing able to put your hand on these
items than to file them away, un
der lock and key.
In this day of "buiit-ins" It
should be no problem at all to
have a hideaway home office de
signed with a drop-down desk and
a cushioned bench with a slide-out
step for resching storage space
and a seat for your work, all in
one.
Virua found to cause cancer
like affliction.
Paul & Ralph Say:
The mess sergeant list
ened angrily to a com
plaint about the bread he
served.
"I'll have you know if
Napoleon had had that
bread when he was cross
ing the Alps, he'd have
eaten it with delight."
"Yes, sir," said the pri
vate, "but it was fresh
then."
