This Week and Thru February 23rd. EUGENE'S ONLY FULL TIME HEARING AID OFFICE Ski Patrol Seeking Boost !n Members "Ski in control and suDDort the patrol" is the slogan chosen for the first postwar drive of the National Ski Patrol, an organiza tion "of skiers for skiers". During the war, while civilian skiing was suspended, this group performed a recruiting job for the war de partment, finding nearly 12,000 qualified men for the ski troops of the loth mountain division. Patrolmen not in the armed forces formed search and rescue squads which took part in more than 25 air force rescue missions in an accessible mountain country. "The ski patrol insignia (orange cross and triangle) is a welcome sight to any skier in trouble," says Tony Vogel, Eugene, a mem ber of the national patrol. As most skiers know, it marks its wearer as a volunteer patrolman or woman, ready and trained by the Red Cross to give intelligent first aid. In less than eight years these volunteers saved 13 lives and took care of more than 7500 injuries, from cut fingers to compound fractures.". 'Good Samaritans "Many skiers do not realize how these 'good Samaritans of the slopes' happen to be on hand whenever there is an accident," Vogel pointed out. "It is because they are active members of a non profit organization formed in 1938 with the blessing of the national ski association, for the express purpose of promoting safety and sanity in skiing and to give com petent help to injured skiers on every patrolled slope. About 300 ski areas in the United States and Alaska are covered by some 4000 volunteer patrolmen." "The Ski Patrol system hopes it has proved its value to the world of skiing," Vogel continued. "This year, in order to carry out necessary postwar developments, it is appealing for the first time to skiing public for financial backing. It has no other means of support, and has expenses which can only be paid in cash, such as postage, clerical help, first aid supplies, and printing." Supporting memberships offer a free copy of the Ski Annual or a subscription to Ski News. Associ ate members are given a National Ski Patrol System (NSPS) pin. "Sixty per cent of all the dues collected locally will go to the support of the local patrol, which has many active members In Eu gene. Those wishing to contribute may mail their checks to the National Ski Patrol System, 4-5 Lexington Avenue, New York, 17, New York." Feb. 17 has been selected as the date of the drive at the Santlam ski area by all the ski patrols of the upper Willamette Valley, Al bany, Corvallis, Lebanon, and Eu gene. All members of the patrols have been asked to be at Santiam lodge Saturday afternoon or eve ning to prepare for the drive Sun day. Funds raised during this drive will be turned over to the Santiam council to be used for the purchase of first aid supplies, and equipment for the Santiam Hoodoo ski area. .FV .4.1 1 x V At.

The golden text was, "The Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God." (1 Cor. 2:10).' Among the citations which comprised the lesson-sermon was the following from the Bible: "No man hath seen God at any time. If we love , one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit." (1 John 4:12, 13).

Den Mother Tells Cub Scout Benefits Editor's Note: As a feature of observance of National Boy Scout week, Mrs. Ruth A. Lam bert, den mother of Cub pack 332 at Bethel, has written the following article on the values of the Cub Scout movement, not only to the boys but to the par ents as well. . By MRS. RUTH A. LAMBERT As we celebrate Boy Scout week this year the theme "Scouts of the World Building Together" takes on added significance. For not only do we'need to rebuild the material structures of the world, but more important by far, is the rebuilding of the moral and phys ical structure of humanity. This is especially true of the children, as they are the men and women of tomorrow. According to a recent report by Atty. Gen. Tom C. Clark, juvenile delinquency is the No. 1 problem of the country today. It is not one to be controlled by the courts or penal institutions of the land, but one for which parents must be held responsible. Cubbing, as part of the Boy Scouts of America, has an answer for this great need of the world. The first and most important aim is the drawing closer together of the boy and his parents, by giving them something in common. It cannot be denied that the early training children have in fluences their thought in later life. Parents who have been given the opportunity to share in the character - influencing program offered by Cubbing find it a prac tical way to help us meet our re sponsibilities. One has only to observe the en thusiasm displayed by a group of Cub Scouts, where they have been provided with the activities that appeal to a boy, to understand how he responds to Cubbing. This, combined with the companionship of the parent, an idea encouraged in the Cubbing program, starts a boy off with an interest in the good things of life. The Cub promise to "do my best" has given me a new per spective on the abilities of a youngster. Perfection is not ex pected, but it is surprising, at times, how capable they can be. No longer do we try to limit them, but encourage them to "do their best." Best of all, is the knowledge that our boys are imbibing the principles that will combat the enemy of delinquency. Doing It in a way that is fun. But the boys are not the only ones that get en joyment out of Cubbing! The more we parents share in the activities, the more fun we find in our family life. Maybe there are wood shavings on-the kitchen floor; and sometimes dad misses out on a lodge meeting, but rais ing a boy isn't such a burden! John Charles Thomas Sings Here Feb. 21 John Charles Thomas, Ameri can baritone of the Metropolitan Opera, is to sing in Eugene Feb. 21 on the Civic Music association concert series. He has had a varied career that has covered four fields of vocal art, begin ning with light opera and contin uing through grand opera, concert and radio. Thomas was born in Meyers dale, Pa., the son of a Methodist minister. As a boy he sang with his mother and father in the camp meetings at which his father preached. He began his singing career In light opera, soon won the lead In such productions as "Apple Blos soms" and "Maytime." He also appeared in numerous Gilbert and Sullivan performances including "The Mikado," "The Pirates of Penzance," "Pinafore," "The Gondoliers." By study he prepared himself for opera and launched his career in this field at the Royal Opera House in Brussels. Invitations to sing at Covent Garden In London and at the opera houses in Berlin and Vienna followed. Returning to the United States, he soon attained prominence, fin ally reaching the position he holds today. Today he Is one of America s most popular vocal artists, as well as one of the greatest from an artistic point of view. Hitting a new high in musical activities, he continues to triumph In the multiple role of grand opera bari tone, concert singer, radio per former and light opera star. A trend toward extending the educational program downward and upward to include the utn I ana utn years m nign scnoois is oeing empnasizea ai wic m-iiuui building program conference which opened its second day in Friendly hall on the University of Oregon campus Tuesday. This trend, the educators point out, will greatly influence the plan ning for school building in the state within the next few years. Laboratory space planned as a part of the classroom was stressed as important in the building pro gram of both junior and senior high schools by Dr. W. L. Van Loan, superintendent of schools in Corvallis, and E. H. Hedrick, superintendent of Mcdford. In planning for the kindergarten and primary grades, the essential needs of the individual child are ! recognized first, with relation to habit training and socialization, Miss Florence Beardsley, supervis or of the elementary education In the state department of education, told the conference. Dr. Hugh Wood, professor of education in the university, point ed out the need for equipment for exploratory work in the primary and elementary schools, and the necessity for providing for spc.-inli-zation at the junior high school level and the high school grades. The need for special music room planning was presented by Miss Maude Gnrnett, associate proicssor or ptioiic school music j in the university. Dr. Florence Blaizer, professor of home eco nomics in Oregon Slnto college, presented the case for special ' planning for the essential needs of a homemaking department. Carl Ashenbrenner, principal, Parish junior high school, Salem, I presented the case for the junior j high schools, advocating an audi torium separate from tho gym- ! naslum. Decrying the class distinction which has grown up as a result of separating academic and voca tional training 1 n secondary schools, E. J. McNnmara, superin tendent of schools in Longvlew, Wash., outlined tendencies which he forsees In high school curricu lums. Superintendent Frank Ben nett of Salem presided. ' Observant Citizen . . I Aids Protection Of School Kids Eugene school kids are going to have protective stop sings out side their school houses in spite of somebody who forgot to put tip some of them thanks to H. O, Moell, 1975 Olive street. . When city councilmen Monday night moved to place four stop signs at Seventeenth and Olive, Moell argued for only two. Councilmen A. L. Hawn and Edwin Johnson said the four were necessary to protect the children on their way to a nearby school. Moell asked why there were no stop signs at the intersection of Eighth and Monroe, where there is an even closer school. Chief of Police L. L, Pittenger moved forward in his sideline chair: "Aren't those signs in yet? They were ordered three months ago!" Both intersections will soon have their full complement of stop signs. ii 2 DROPS HEAD Off smrrLcS Two drops Penetrp Now watery flow, relievo Drops in each nostril check color watery u Irritrntewl naul Dllll Breathe easier, feel better.
