ttf#£ctor Cautions
Summer Vacationers
With the . Bummer conves the
school vacations—^children playing
in the streets, in vacant lots, at the
lakes, in the playgrounds, and near
ly every place you could mention.
Have you done anything toward
teaching your children where and
how to play safely ? If you haven’t
you are shirking your responsibil
ity! It is only natural for chil
dren to play, and if no playground
is available, they will play in the
streets. When we are driving our
cars and approach a group of chil
dren, it is well to remember that
they are liable to do unexpected
things. They do not react the same
as a grown person. Remember
that, and proceed with caution.
With summer also comes vaca
tions for all of us. There are a lot
of hazards connected with vacation
ing. The most formidable, per
haps, is the highway traffic hazard.
However, when city folks take to
the woods and lakes, preparations
for camping should be made before
leaving home. Hatchets and knives
should have shleaths, firearm^
should be in a locked container,
particularly if any children are in
the party. Study a good first aid
book in advance. Learn to recog
nize poison plants, such as poison
ivy, poison oak and sumac. Also
be prepared to treat such poisons
in the event a member of the party
requires treatment. Spend a little
time thinking about what your
activities will be, and think about
what might happen—then prepare
yourself to meet those emergencies;
should they occur. Take plenty of
warm clothing and a first aid kit.
Get plenty of sleep and rest. Eat
simple food. Do not overindulge
in physical activities. Remem
ber if you are not used to much ex
ercise, you cannot get used to stren
uous exercise in a few days. A.
good sunburn or strained muscle
may spoil the balance of your vaca
tion. Give a little serious thought
in planning your vacation and you'll
enjoy it much more.—E. R. LEH

Gordon Leader Named
Officer in NCTC Drive
Mrs. I. S. Magowan, of Gordon,
has been elected a vice-president
of the National Consumers Tax
Commission, it was announced at
the commission’s national head
quarters in Chicago today.
The announcement was made by
Mrs. Kenneth C. Frazier, of Dallas,
Texas, retiring presiderit,1 who is
elevated to the chairmanship of
the board. Mrs. Melville Muckle
stone, Chicago, succeeds tb the pres
idency as the NCTC enters its sec
ond year.
In announcing the election’s out
come, Mrs. Frazier said the can
didates first received the almost
unanimous endorsement of the na
tional committee. Ballots were
then sent to the 5,000 chairmen who
head local NCTC tax study units
throughout the country and an
overwhelming proportion of those
returned approved the nominees.
Long identified with women’s ac
tivities, Mrs. McGowan is corres
ponding secretary of the Nebr. Fed
eration of Women’s Clubs. She
has, for the last year, been na
tional committee member and state
director of the NCTC for Nebraska,
guiding the organization’s crusade
in that state against “consumer
penalizing taxes.”
“Any nation-wide, non-partisan
organization which can succeed in
arousing tax consciousness among
women and stimulate an interest
in getting more for their money—
both in government and in their
own households—must necessarily
be a great force for good,” Mrs.
Magowan said. “I am sure that
under Mrs. Mucklestone’s leader
ship the commission will continue
the first year’s amazing progress,
and that within the year we will
have 2,000,000 women studying the
problems of taxation.”
Other officers elected were: Mrs.
William T. Hannah, Waynesvile,
N. C., Mrs. John S. Harvey, Hunt
ington, W. Va., Miss Marie Ames,
St. Louis, Mo., vice-presidents, and
Mrs. James C. Carmark, Provi
dence, R. L, sec. Mrs. Lelia B. Nor
man, Miami, Fla. was re-elected
treasurer.
There is always one way to tell
if O’Neill wives are good cooks.
Look and see how many tin cans
are in the rubbish.
Seeing the outfits worn in the
many Eastyif parades, we figure
they all looked pretty good on the
outside but what about how they
felt on Ifca-inside?
