He had to turn inhis dairy as a war measure andonly got it back a few weeksago. In it he tells of the difficultyof the march over the mountainroads which were little more thantrails, the constant drizzle of rainwhich kept them wet most of thetime and the scarcity of food.For a week or so they had almostno food at all and had to subsiston native potatoes and squash,and some bananas. These banan-as are more like sweet potatoesand had to be cooked beforeeaten. Most of their rations hadto be dropped by plane. A rationplane crashed killing a coloneland 9 men whom they buried ontop of the mountain. Others whodied of malarial fever were also

buried on top of the mountain.The diary reads: Sept. 17.

If your're a r e a s o n a b l ythoughtful parent of children at-tending a Michigan grade schoolor high school, you must haveasked yourself these questionsmany times: "Are Michigan ad-ministrators and teachers mak-ing any efforts to improve theteaching methods in use whenI was a kid? Are they studyingways to change subject matterso as to fit today's students fortoday's world of science andspace travel?"

The answer is a confident,heart-warming "Yes" 700 Mich?gan teachers and educators areholding meetings all over thestate at least once a month dis-cussing these questions, theoriz-ing about new teaching methods,trying to prod friendly schoolsinto pilot experimental programson a small scale, and watchingcarefully the results of these testefforts.

At St. Mary's Lake, near BattleCreek, more than 400 of theseteachers and administrators metlast week in a convention whichpulled together all 20 of thesespecial committees to hear expertsdiscuss general education pro-

blems, and then gathered intotheir own special little businessmeetings to map their own workj":-r the icmainJer of the year.

To a lay observer, the amaz-ing thing about the meeting wasthe fact that the people therefrom outside of Michigan observ-ed the workings of the groupswith considerable envy. Theywere outspoken about the leader-ship shown by Michigan in manyfields, particularly efforts like theMott Foundation, in makingschools available to everybody inthe community after school hoursand the use of conservationcamps to teach whole classesright out in the wild about treesand animals and nature, and ex-periments such as being conduc-ted in the use of large classeswith a master teacher controllingteacher aides or apprentice teach-ers.

In sharp contrast was theattitude of the Michigan teachers,who were critical of what theyconsidered their slowness in cop-ing with the tremendous job oftrying to educate as well as pos-sible each child. They were im-patient to get on with the taskof finding new approaches toreach children who have in thepast merely been pushed out ofschool, and they were genuinelyconcerned about the instructorthey referred to as the ThankGod it's Friday' teacher, a typethey see as needing much newtraining and selling on betterattitudes if the best possibleschooling for every child is tobecome a reality in Michigan.

They heard William Van Til,head of the Department of Sec-ondary Education of New YorkUniversity, tell them that part ofeducation's responsibility for tom-orrow is to keep its balance; thatit's necessary not only to developscientists but perhaps even more,to develop people with the abilityto come to grips with the gen-eral problems of society. Peoplewho have understanding of them-selves, therefore can come moreclosely to understanding others.

This will take experimentationand it will require superior teach-ers, who can impart motivationto the brightest youngsters.

He urged more debate on edu-cation fundamentals, not less.

They also heard Dean WillardC. Olson of the University ofMichigan School of Educationwarn that many of the new "cureall" ideas weren't nearly as or-ginial as the authors thought, andthat rash forays into every newpasture weren't necessarily thebest ways to arrive at better edu-cation for Michigan boys andgirls.

"The old ways aren't all bad.Dean Ohon said, "and the newways aren't all good." Constantappraisal of every experimentand constant appraisal of allmethods now in use is vital.

What are these 20 differentgroups of teachers concernedover? Here's a sketchy picture,and it's important to realize thatmany of the members of thesecommittees are teachers who arepaying their own way to attendmeetings, as well as Jay peoplewho have been invited in becauseof their specialized knowledge invarious fields:

There's a committee on Agri-cultural Education. One of itsimportant findings was the needfor lay people as advisors on agri-culture teaching and their urgingfor schools to use these peopleto improve the quality of theseprograms.

There's an Air-Space Educa-tion committee, a strange sound-ing group to lay ears, but com-pletely functionary, after you'velistened for awhile. They foundthat thousands of Michigan tea-chers had never been aloft. Thesepeople were in real trouble whenJunior in the 4th or 5th gradebrought up problems on spacetravel or missiles ,and demandedanswers. What they hope todo is to make teachers more air-conscious, so they will pay moreattention to everyday develop-ments in this new era of planetexploration, and gear theirteaching in areas where Junior'sattention already is riveted.

Alcohol and Education com*mittee is studying ways to bringbetter understanding about thewhole problem; Better HumanRelations group is vitally con-cerned in the field of race andreligious differences and methodsof preparing youngsters for officework.

Conservation Education con-cerns itself not only with naturalresources, but such human re-sources as the gifted child; Coreand General Education studiesthe so-called transitional room,where a teacher will have chil-dren not for a whole day, butfor more than one period, seek-ing to see if it isn't possible, forinstance, for a theme to serve notonly English but perhaps be anexposition in conservation, orhuman relations, or some othersubject.

There are committees on Cur-riculm Research, Economic Edu-ship, Education of ExceptionalChildren, Elementary Education,Guidance, Health, Home andFamily Living, Industrail Arts,Instructional Materials, Post-12thGrade Community Education,Physical Education and Safety,and Civil Defense. They arecomposed of dedicated, ablepeople. They cooperate with

They've added something newthis year. In the past they've beedcontent to write booklets abouttheir findings and hope that goodresults would follow.

CURRENT COMMENTBy PAUL W. CURLETT

The postoffice dept. is still trying to bar obscene literature andpornographic pictures from the mails but the job is hard as the linebetween which is obscene and which is not is pretty thin. PostmasterGeneral Summerficld tried to bar Lady Chatterly's Lover from themails but failed. A circuit judge ruled this could only be done bycourt action. Pornographic pictures are as old as the world itself.When the editor worked in Detroit during World War I time certainfactory workers used to have a side line of selling them to otherworkers. No clear decision has ever been rendered. It is perfectlyproper to send nudist and art magazines through the mail but notwhat is called action pictures. This pornographic business is a billiondollar institution and the difficulties of combating it are numerous.Most of the pictures are sent by first class mail and no one, not eventhe postmaster general can open first class mail. Although the govern-ment has obtained 45% more convictions the past year than in pre-vious years the industry is far from beaten. No amount of legislationcan ever be as important as help from American parents themselves.The filth picture peddlers can be beaten if the parents work togetherwith the postal dept.

Roswell Garst, prominent Iowa fanner who entertained Pre-mier Kruschev of Russia last week, and is a recognized authorityon advanced fanning technique, does not agree with the govern-ment's decision to reduce cattle numbers, because they are ap-proaching the 100,000,000 mark. He says that is the cattle pro-duction mark they had in 1954 and there has been a 10% gain inpopulation since then. This is the same, he says, as saying to theAmerican consumers "Eat 10% less beef." What they should dohe adds is to produce more cattle to eat up the huge gram surplus.In stating this he is only reporting the views of other agriculture

authorities tlho have pointed to the virtues of animaJ agricultureas a means of improving the American diet, and at the same timereduce the staggering crop surpluses. Crops that turn into meatars *>/<ainly to be preferred to crops that go into storage,

Premier Kruschev of Russia has come and gone and theviews as to the effects of his visit are varied. The concensus seemsto be that is didn't do any harm. The visit of the president toRussia which was to have followed close on the visit of Krushchevhere has been postponed until spring. This seems to have beenmostly on the request of the Russian premier who wants thepresident to bring his wife and grandchildren with him. Whileno policy points were arrived at, the visit seems to have dispelledmuch of the legend that Krushchev is a bogey man. The Indus-trial Review says Soviet Communism has changed greatly fromthe 1920 style. The concept then was "From each according tohis ability; to each according to his need.*9 This meant that in-comes and living standards were to be the same for all regardlessof the kind, quantity or quality of work performed, and that atruly classless society was to be created. But times there havechanged. For instance if a lathe operator doubles his productionhe gets 1500 rubles equal to about $150 a month, instead of 850rubies. He also attends a tech school at night to learn skills for abetter paid job. This shows that the Soviet is using the capitalistincentive, more money, to get more production. This is abodangled in front of directors, artists and scientists. This meansthe end of classless society and luxury and privilege have appear-ed. The top people are given country homes, chauffer driven auto-mobiles etc. This chasm between the top and lower levels ofsoviet society leaves the lower class still desperately poor. A col-lective farmer gets but $400 a year while a leading scientist gets$2000 a month. As the tax is only 13% on high incomes thehigh incomes the high wage earners keep most of their earnings.Lip service is still paid to social equality in Russia but facts andtheory have little in common. Krushchev's visit here cost thiscountry $150,000. Do you think they got their money's worth?

* * *Orville Hubbard, mayor of Dearborn is evidently on his way to

a 10th two year term as mayor of Dearborn as he led his opponent inthe primary there last week by about a 4 to 1 vote. He got twice asmany votes as his four opponents combined. In all his campaigns hehas been practically opposed by all the newspapers and ridiculed buthe triumphs by a big vote. The same is true in Michigan. GovernorWilliams in his 10 years of office has always had the opposition of allthe daily papers and most of the weeklies but nevertheless always wins.

HOME ECONOMICSEXTENSION NEWS

By MRS. MILDRED CHAPELCOUHJB0Y FABMCSIN FASHION

Corduroy foes to the footballgame as a suit or to the dance asa formal. Corduroy is a versatilefabric.

Practical is another claim forcorduroy. Most of it is all-cotton,although some pieces may includerayon for added luster. All cor-duroy is at least hand-washable;and almost all now carries the la-bel "machine-washable." Labelsshould give washing instructions.

Manufacturers offer severaldifferent types of corduroy.There is a fine wale with 22 ribsto the inch, which is used for in-fant wear and men's shirts. Thereis a wide - wale with five or sixribs to the inch, which is usedfor sportswear. Most populartype in pinwale corduroy with 16ribs to the inch. Wide ribs forma definite stripe effect and shouldbe matched when cutting andsewing garments.

Some firms dye two to threehundred colors in corduroy everyseason. Of course, you won't seeall these in one store, but youwill find a wide variety. Recentlyplaids and prints have been add-ed to corduroy lines. Prints andplaids should be examined to besure they are printed with thegrain of the fabric.

Corduroy has its share of newfinishes, too. Wrinkle - resistantfinishes help corduroy look asvelvety and as lustrous after re-peated washings as when new.

Water repellent finishes take tocorduroy. It's possible to makea raincoat, for instance, then takeit to a dry cleaners and have awater-repellent finish added.

The spot-resistant finish is an-other new development for cor-duroy.

Plaid skirts arrive with the fallseason. Look carefully at the cutof a plaid skirt when you shop.

The most prominent line of theplaid should be at the center,both in the front and back of theskirt. If a bold stripe is not cen-tered, the skirt appears twistedon the wearer.

Plaids should be matched atseam lines, so the plaid continuesin an unbroken line.

Any skirt should have someease over the hips. Take time tocheck the back view for fit, andsit down in the skirt to be sure itis comfortable and not too tight.

Pleats in a skirt should be deepenough to keep their shape, andthey should hang well on thewearer.

Good seam allowances helpseams to lie smoothly and resist

pulling out. If your weight isn'tstable, wide seam allowances letyou alter the skirt when neces-sary.NEW FINISH FOR COTTONMAKES IS SCORCHPROOF

Cotton fabrics continue to ac-quire "new looks." We may soonbuy cotton ironing pads, coversand press cloths that are scorch-proof and heat resistant.

A new fabric with these prop-erties has been developed by re-search workers in the U. S. De-partment of Agriculture.

Technical name for the newfabric is "partially acetylated (orPA) cotton." Chemical treat-ment actually changes the physi-cal and textile properties of cot-ton.

Commercial tests show thepractical value of the new pro-duct. When exposed to sustainedhigh temperature, PA fabricslasted four times longer than un-treated cotton.

Cost estimates, based on com-mercial laundry operations, indi-cated PA cotton could be less ex-pensive to use than other mater-ials. It may offer competition tosynthetic and asbestos productsnow on the market.

Parties for the pre-school childshould be small. Home econ-omists at Michigan State Uni-versity suggests the number ofguests match the age of thehost' child.

If the sweater label says "dryclean able," home economists atMichigan State University sug-gest you take the hint and sendit to the dry cleaners. Color mayfade in washing.

COMMUNICATIONDear Sir:

Now that summer has left uswith many vacant cottages andpeace and quiet around our Lakeit gives us time to recollect.

We can count our blessingsfor we have been some of thelucky ones for our Lake's goodrecord was not marred by anaccident. As far as, I can findout there has never been oneon our Lake so far.

But with winter facing us ourthoughts will dwell with hope onthe warm days of Summer 1960,and the question - will our re-cord stand next year?

What with more thrill huntingCity people coming into our areaswith larger boats and motors anda devil take care attitude of oper-ating them we are inclined toshudder.

Why can't something be donebefore there no longer ii thesmiling face of a son or daughterto greet ua? Their life severedby a demon at the controls of toomuch power! Are we who livein this county going to stand byand see the inevitable happen anddo nothing to prevent it? ^ v

I personally think it is a pro-blem not only for the residents ona-lake but should be of concernto all those'in offices governingour entire county.

This is a challenge to anyand all others who have an opin-ion or idea or agree with me.

Sincerely,Mary Burke

DUANE GIRBACHThis is the time of year when

we are organizing 4-H Club Workfor the coming winter projectseason. 4-H Clubs are groups op-erating on the principal of "learn-ing by doing". A 4-H Club iscomposed of five or more boysand girls who elect their own of-ficers ajjd conduct their ownmeetings. They plan and carryout their own programs.

Each boy or girl chooses a jobor project to do at home, or onthe farm. A local leader guidesthe club. The leader is usuallysomeone who lives in the neigh-borhood and is often a parent ofone of the members.

4-H leaders are interested inworking with boys and girls ofthe community. Leaders helpmembers with their projects andadvise them in their meetings.Their reward is the satisfactionof seeing boys and girls developskills and grow in character andcitizenship.

Through the Cooperative Ex-tension Service, 4-H Clubs andtheir leaders may be given help inorganizing 4-H Clubs. The Ex-tension Service supplies bulletinsand can give other informationon their project work.

4-H members carry a projectand study the 4-H project bulle-tins. They attend meetings andtake part in programs. They par-ticipate in other 4-H activities;camps, achievement days, fielddays, tours, fairs, demonstrationsand judging.

Each member has a project^which is an individual task for?ihat member in an area of inter-est to him .A wide variety of 4-Hprojects are available for mem-bers to take part in. Some of themost popular projects during thewinter season, and especially forthe girls, are clothing, home im-provement, knitting. Projects ofinterest chiefly to the boys arehandicraft, electrical and tractorcare. Other projects of interest toboth boys and girls are: conserva-tion, money management, person-al improvement, photography,safety, and electronics. j

To become a member of a 4-HClub a boy or girl must be 10years of age by next January 1st.One of the limiting factors in thenumber of boys and girls thatmay take part in this 4-H experi-ence is the number of adults wecan secure to work as leaders ina 4-H club. The local 4-H leaderis an important link in 4-H Clubwork.

If a person is interested inlearning how to organize a 4-Hclub in their neighborhood, thisinformation can be received fromthe Cooperative Extension Serv-ice located in the Courthouse An-nex in Howell. Your inquiries areinvited.

ANTIBIOTICS ANDBEEF CATTLE

Feeding cattle? You may beable to boost profits by feedingantibiotics, says a MichiganState University extension spe-cialist in animal husbandry.

Hugh E. Henderson cautionsthat antibiotics work only undercertain feedlot conditions. Col-lege experiments led him to theseconclusions:

Benefits are greatest when theration has lots of roughage. High-grain fattening rations seem tobe affected little by adding anantibiotic.

Cattle benefit less from the ad-ditive than do swine and poultry.

Terramycin and aureomycinare the only forms of antibioticnow recommended for cattle.

Cattle may go 'off feed' for afew days when the antibiotic isadded. This doesn't last long, soit's no cause for alarm.

Age and length of feeding ap-parently don't influence the dailygains achieved with antibiotics.

Farmers usually profit by add-ing antibiotics provided it doesnot increase total feeding costsby more than 5 to 7 per cent.

Antibiotics apparently improveappearance and disease resistanceas well as rate of gain.TIME TO CONTROLOUR WORST WEEDS

Spraying against quackgrassand yellow rocket by early No-vember can save farmers a lot ofheadaches next year, says a farmcrops scientist at Michigan StateUniversity.

Stuart C. Hildebrand notes re-search findings that fall-sprayedMCPA controls yellow rocketbeautifully. Dalapon effectivelycontrols quackgrass.

What's more, many farmerswill have little time to spray dur-ing next spring's busy plantingseason.

Fall spraying against quack-grass is an especially good ideawhere you'll be planting corn orbeans next year. Planting withinfive weeks after dalapon spray-ing may cause some crop dam-age.

Around 10 pounds of dalaponper acre has controlled quack-grass in most M. S. U. plots. Theexpert recommends 15 poundsper acre on heavily - infestedfields.

Dalapon kills quackgrass bestwhen it's applied to growingplants about six to eight inchestall. The herbicide is effectivewhen applied in fall or spring.

Yellow rocket has hurt a lot ofMichigan alfalfa crops in recentyears. This weed of the mustardfamily makes hay stemmy andunpalatable.

Yellow rocket plants startgrowing in the fall. Then awatchful eye can see small ros-ettes or leaf clusters at groundlevel.

One half pound of MCPA peracre sprayed on this fall givesbeautiful control. This amountcosts about $11.

MCPA spraying gives an add-ed bonus. It controls mustard-type weeds such as wild carrot,peppergrasses, shepherds pupenny cress, bull thistle,mustard and sweet clover

Some fanners .they can do iHthcutting of alfalfa., Itthough, in spiteHot'tK-poor second cutting, that thethird cutting has come along infine shape. Dry weather the endof June and early July held backthe second cutting. Following thiscame some welcome moistureand invigorated grow in tremen-dously. The recent high tempera-tures and moisture brought thisalong a good deal faster. So, whatto do?

Tiny'i idea was basicallygood. He got a few dozen greenlollipops and stood on the cor-ner, across the street from thegrade school. As the kids cameout and crossed the street withthe green light, he'd give eacha green lollipop.

Trouble was, when the kidsspotted the candy, they made abeeline for Tiny, ignoring thelight... running helter-skelteraeroft the street. Tiny quickly

had to abandon his project.From where I alt, we can all

Fall Colors toHit Their Peak

One of the most attractive tea-sons at Kensington MetropolitanPark'near Milford is expected tobe viewed between October 1 and15th this year when the f a l lcolors reach their peak.

Persons visiting the " n a t u r etrails" near the park's N a t u r eCenter can identify the wonder-ful colon of the foliage of indiv-idual trees which are labelled.

Featured among the exhibits atthe Nature Center is a display en-titled, "Why Leaves Change Col-or in the Fall."

At this time of year wild ducksusually migrate through the parkand several hundred can befound at Wildwing Lake, set asideas a wild life sanctuary in the4,500-acre recreational site whichis a unit of the Huron-Clinton Me-tropolitan Authority.

Allow some space at the topof the package when freezingfoods since most foods will ex-pand during freezing, suggestshome economists at MichiganState University.

Safety More ImportantThan Hunter Success

With zero hour approaching on Michigan's gmaU game seasons,Conservation Department official* are urging sportsmen to set theirsights on hunter safety as well as hunter success.

There is ample room for improvement on last year's safety recosdwhich was marred when 12 persons were killed and 200 wounded byfirearms during these small game seasons.

Department officials stress that the greatest menace to hunterlife and limb during this year's seasons,will beJhe victim's own 'gunor that of a hunting companion. Five hunters died last year fromself-inflicted wounds and statistics showed that in 10 6t tht 12fatalities, the victim was within 10 yards of the flte4 weapon.

As in the past, last year's cas-jualtles pointed out that the major-

ity of accidents are caused by poorjudgement and carelessness. Straybullets and hunter firing mlsjudg-ments claimed four lives andwounded 101. Two hunters werekilled and 12 wounded by carelessloading and, unloading. Three per-sons were fatally wounded whilefolding their weapons by the mus-cle and clubbing game.

Other accidents wars caused bycareless fence |Or log crossing,* cars-less handling of weapons, trippingand falling, defective weapons, andloaded weapons in cars, boats andtractors.

Hunten are reminded that shot-guns and rifles must be unloadedand either broken down, In a case,or ia thtfWunk when they are car-ried in cars.

Observance of these ruler willhelp hunters from becoming a ISMaccident statistic: 1) be sure ofyour target "before you pull thetrigger; 2) know what Is beyondyour target 3) know where yourcompanions are located; 4) alwayscarry your gun so that you cancontrol the direction of the muuleif you should stumble; 5) neverclimb a tree or fence or Jump aditch with a loaded gun: and 6)

know and respect Michigan's gamelaws.
