FUTURE f.m'f.rxs or .u.'.rp1cAg We are now organized into two groups captalned by Everett Dence and Leon Bachynskl for the pur- pose of selling seeds. Salesmen are recruited from the grades. The top salesman will receive a 55.00 prize. The winning team will enjoy a sundae a piece. The proceeds from sales will go into our treasury, somewhat depleted by our fifty dollar contribution toward a permanent F.F.A. Camp ln the Adirondacks. when we use our new shop machinery we wear grey coveralls with nCandor Trallblazersn on the back. We have a basketball team which has, to date, won flve and lost two games. Our club actlvlties are really fitting us for our lives ln the community. At present our chap- ter has twenty-two members.

We had a large Chris tmas tree, exchanged gifts and had refreshments at our party. Early in January two of our club members at- tended a conference ln Ithaca where the State Constitution of Future Homemakers of America was made. Pictures of our cottage appeared in the nSyracuse Post Standardn rotogravure section, DAVID IWOHAS-PAYTOL LEADER: The BoyhScouts of Troop 42 had a busy season ln 1945. ey collected 20,000 lbs. of waste paper ln the drive started by Gen. Eisenhower. For this achievement the troop received a shell case that had protected a shell fired at an enemy posi- tion. Some boys put in extra effort and collected a thousand pounds of paper each: Jack Williams, and be- Wllllam Rutledge, James Hollenbeck, Frank Root Kenneth Frost. We can be proud of these boys cause they were among only 220,000 boys who re- ceived the Eisenhower award. Also ln the summer, members of the troop tended camperee's at Camp Barton and Flemingvllle udnning various awards having a swell time, and advancing in Scout work. This last fall we had a vigorous patrol con- test ln which we all had fun. Howard Weber has succeeded Henry Vetter as Scout Master. THE GIRL SCOUI5g Take a smear of raking, a dribble of spaghetti Christmas rlbbon and a little hay and leather and at- you have the Girl Scout Program for 1945-46. In Troop I, the Intermediates have had a full schedule under the leadership of Miss Jean Young. They have held parties and thqrhave earned Leather and Hostess Badges. Valentine favors were made for the patients at the Doane Nursing Home. ln October, Girl Scout Week was celebrated. Now they have planned an outdoor program to help acquire more skills. The Senior Scouts of Troop Il, have sent Friendship Bags to teen-age girls ln Holland. In November, we helped with the Tuberculosis Seals Drive by folding seals. A hayride, a spaghetti supper, and a Christmas party provided funds and entertainment. The Senior Troop, with Miss Joan Day as leader is a new program in Ca1dor Scouting. lt stresses co munity servlce and recreation rather than a formal badge program. We owe our progress to our committee: Mrs. H.M. Nickerson, Mrs. J. Craig, Mrs. M.R. Chaffee, Mr. H. Hull Mrs. A. Beebe, and Mrs. C. D. Butler, and Mr. H. Vin Scoy. M H I sa w N511 me me ea as

Prejudice is based on opinion regarding other people and usually has no relation to fact. It really is very unfair, for it gives no one o chance to re- deem himself. For instance, let us consider the preju- dices against the foreign immigrants. They are said to be filthy, lawless, crooked, neg- ligent and lazy. Why are they filthy? Be- cause the American people don't give them a starting chance. They don't have the money and therefore must occupy the slum areas. Are they lawless? After all the persecution in Europe and Asia it seems that anyone would learn a respect for law and order. They wor- ship it if it's justifiable. Are they crook- ed? Well, if you were on your back from starvation, you wouldn't be a truly trust- worthy person either. Besides, in the case af the Jews, the American people as well as all others are just jealous of their business talent. Are foreign parents neglient? I should say not. What percentage of the delin quent cases points at the foreigners? The foreigners are much stricter with child dis- cipline than Americans are. Are foreigners lazy? Who settled and started our progress- ive and prosperous country? Yes, it was the foreigners. They came over to do the tough and dirty jobs of nation-building and succeed ed. They plowed our first furrows. For- eigners developed our nation's scientific and mathematical fields. They started our prog- ress in manufacturing. They created our democratic form of government. The foreignms are solely responsible for our existance to- day. After considering the services rendered by immigrants, most people change their atti- tude toward them. We won't have inter- national peace in the world Until GGCH HGti0n eliminates prejudice and learns to work with, to live with, and to understand the people of other nations. dz 63, - - 5 IT TASTED GOOD - In our Senior Play, 'Growing Pains,' a bowl of punch was required for a party scene. I suppose we could have used water with a little coloring in it. Whether having real punch would help make the play a success is a debatable question, but have it we would. Someone had to make the punch. Now my friend, Dorothy, and I love to get into things like that. We had no recipe but we had made some for a dance once before by just putting things together, and it had turned out well. So we volunteered to try our luck again. We bought several kinds of juices, some ginger ale, and some Kara syrup to sweeten it with. We had planned to use Kool-Aid as a base but the store was out of it. After con- sulting the clerk we bought a bottle of dark- colored liquid, grape flavor. It was sup- posed to make a very good drink, so we had no qualms in buying it. We went down to the cafeteria kitchen with our purchases and proceeded to put thugs together. We dumped all the juices and syrup into a large kettle and added water. Then we put in the bottle of dark flavoring. What a catastrophe! The mixture had tun1ed into the darkest, dirtiest, green color I have ever seen. On sampling we found it didn't taste bad at all, but I want you to know that our main purpose was not to achieve a good- tasting drink, we wanted it to look pretty in the punch bowl on the stage. What were we to do? This certainly would not meet with approval. A suggestion from the Homemaking teacher boosted our hopes a little. She gave us a bottle of red vegetable coloring. We added a large portion of this to the drab-colored concoction. It did turn a little bit red, but it still looked more like a mixture qf'dish water and beet juice that it did punch. How- ever, it was an idea to work on. We added more water, more red coloring, and some bright cherry juice brought from home. It did look more inviting. By the time we were through, we had several quarts of punch with an indistin- guishable but rather nice tasting flavor. We kept it back stage during the play and when anyone was thirsty all he had to do was pour himself a drink. There was still some left the next morning when we went down to clean up the stage. We drank all we could and per- suaded the janitors to drink some. We hated to waste it, but a quart or two was still left over and we had to pour it down the sinh J dupe-fc What are some causes of crime? Leon Bachynski: Criminals are the causes of crime.
