Supt. Brubacher was a guest at the October meeting of the Riverside High school Mothers club prior to the administrators' meeting. He spoke briefly in ie gard to preparing now for the ever rising costs of sending stu dents to college, and the need for better educated students at the end of their high school careers since the entrance re quirements academically are al so rising steadily. Brubacher complimented the patrons of Morrow county on their Interest in having good schools. "It is a sacrifice to obtain ex cellent opportunities for your children, and although it is diffi cult to see immediate good re sults, the struggle in the long run will bear fruit." The superintendent emphasiz ed the importance of parents helping their charges develop good study and work habits at an early age. "It is too lato to study only during one's senior year in high school and expect to be equipped with a background of knowledge and sound study habits to meet the stiff competition of other eager and ambitious college stu dents." "The ever-increasing tide de siring college entrance is crowd ing the inadequate building fa cilities to the extent that a smaller and smaller percentage is able to get in . . . especially to the preferred institutions."

Founder's Program Observes Soroptimist 42nd Federated Year A program in keeping with commemoration of Founde r ' s Day of the Soroptimist American Federation was presented by Mrs. William J. Thomas at the luncheon meeting of the Hepp ner club last Thursday noon. Mrs. Thomas, a charter member of the local club, reviewed the history of the founding of the organization, now world-wide in scope, and in its 42nd year. "The association was born on the west coast," recalled the speaker, "when the first club was organized in Alameda, county, Calif., on September 21, 1921, with Stuart Morrow as the organizer. We are the youngest of the large service clubs, but with greater membership than any other. Expanding to the east and then to Europe, a club was organized in London in 19241, and one was soon formed in Paris through the leadership of Madam Suzanne Noel. It became an international organization in Washington, D. C, in 1928." Each club is urged to keep in touch with a sister club in Europe, Mrs. Thomas remarked, and support of the Foundation Endowment fund is primary in this year's program. Youth schol arships for advanced education and research hold priority in local, national and international programs. During the business session final plans were made for the card party held at the Episcopal parish hall Monday evening. Mrs. Jim Thomson announced the invitational visit of Supt. and Mrs. Wayne Brubacher at the meeting today (Thursday). Two senior girls are invited each month to be luncheon guests of the club.
