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

As you know, moth balls are made
of naphthlene. But naphthlene can

June brides need not worry about
stoves for new homes despite re
striction of the country’s output
of domestic cooking and heating
appiances. Smaller companies will
be allowed to make a limited num
ber of simplified models for civ
ilian use so the facilities of larger
producers and more iron and steel
can go into the war effort. How
ever, by the time the order be
comes effective on July 31st, there
should be about 2,000,000 new
stoves in the country—-plenty for
the crop of brides and Mis Amer
icas for the year to come.

Your home front is not a far cry
from the production lines. You
should look out for the family’s
health, especially for the Mr. Amer
ica who works on the assembly
line. His time at work is too vahi-
to his country, to let colds or
stomach upsets keep him away from
his job. Records show that nine-
tenths of industrial disability is
caused by disease and injury not
associated with working conditions.
So Mrs. America, you can help safe
guard the 100,000 man hours that
go into the construction of a bomb
