6 Thursday, May 28, 1942, Vernonia Eagle, Vernonia, Oregon Explanation Made Of Aid Society Several questions have been as­ ked about t*>e Boy’s and Girl’s Aid Society of Oregon, which has been asking for contributions lately. Mr. F. R. Olin, in charge of the drive here, has the answers. It is a pri­ vately-maintained child-placing a- gency caring for dependent children from all counties of the state. Ages range from infancy to 18 years. Headquarters are at 1504 S. W. 11th Avenue, Portland. It was es­ tablished in July, 1885 and has reg­ istered over 7,000 children and ser­ ved many more. It is certified by the State Public Welfare Commis- Navy School at G.E. Just one evidence of the cooperation between the armed services and our vast industrial army — a school for submarine electricians conducted at one General Electric factory. ning of every submarine. It does an amazing variety of important jobs, from turning the propeller to cooking the coffee. 2. For that reason, there must be well trained electricians on every underwater craft. At this school. Navy electricians attend classes taught by G-E engineers............... sion and the State Board of Health and endorsed by the Portland Com­ munity Chest. In Oregon it is the only member of the Child Welfare League of America. The children come to the Boys’ and Girls’ Aid Society from the Court of Public Relations, County courts, and from their own parents on personal release. Shel­ ter homes located in Portland are used for temporary care. Private foster homes are carefully selected to meet each child’s needs. Nom­ inal board is paid and the child may remain in this foster home for a few months or throughout his childhood. His progress in ad- î’.$ing himself to the home is con­ tinually supervised by a skilled case worker. Children visit the Society medical clinic for regular examina­ tions as their health is, of course very important. The money for this service comes from memberships and donations, Portland Community Chest, and states and counties.

I thought you’d like to know about this particular town—not be- cause it is the best town in Ore- gon, or anything like that, but because it is a fine example of real cooperation and an inspiration after hearing so much about com- piacency. I think many a bigger city, more advanced culturally and financially and more Sophisticated, could with value send someone to see how it is done in this village of s.wntill hands and lumberjacks.

Here’s one order that you won’t put away in mothballs. It’s the con­ servation order which places the dis­ tribution of naphthalene under rig­ id allocation control after June 1.
