Dr. Jenkins’ subject was “The Well
Being of the Family” and he made
an appeal to parents for a better
understanding between parents and
children. He stressed six points that
parents should follow in helping their
children through life. »
They were, selecting their com
panions in society,, selecting a life’s
profession, choosing a miate, a hobby
and deciding on the right kind of
amusement. The main point that he
stressed was the church. He said
that parents should know that it is
■their responsibility to teach their
children that God is entitled to res
pect by going to church regularly.
The following new officers were
then installed by the President:'
President, Mrs. A. B. Etheridge of
Pasquotank County; vice president,
Mrs. Earl White, Dare County; ser
retary and treasurer, Mrs. J. H. Yon,

Vets Again Allowed
Full Week Schooling
Previous Ruling Provid
ed For Only 15 Hours
Per Week
Effective July Ist, veterans having
! full-time jobs may again be permit
i ted to take a full week’s schooling of
■26 or more hours, provided the
' course is essentially vocational in
nature, according to Stephen H. Al
> ford, district officer of the State Vet
: erans Commission.
The Veterans Education Commit
> tee, the State approving agency for
' all en-the-job training and educa
-1 tional institutions training former
> service men under the GI Bill, at its
: last meeting modified its ruling *on
this matter. Until this change, the
’ VEC held to the rule that “A school
1 will not be approved for more than
1 16 hours per week if it is planned for
veterans who are regularly employed
r on a full time basis.” .
1 Inquiries at a number of night
• schools for veterans have disclosed
‘ that veterans holding down regular
a jobs and with families to support
r have excellent records as to grades
’ and attendance. This was particular
• ly true in vocational courses.
, What we truly and earnestly aspire
( to be, that in some sense we are. The
j mere aspiration, by changing the
frame of the mind, for the moment
l realizes itself.

VETERANS URGED NOT TO SEND i
INSURANCE PREMIUMS IN CASH j
Veterans who send cash through i
the mails in payment for premiums i
on National S ervice Life Insurance
risk losing their money and their in- -
surance protection, the Veterans Ad- |
ministration warns.
Instead of cash, VA urges veterans
to use money orders, postal notes
(with reverse side filled out in full) or
checks. Chances of error also are
lessened by using the yellow envelope
furnished for mailing to the appropri
ate office, VA said.
By continually’looking upwards, pur
minds will themselves grow upwards.
