nights a week, have three or four chaperons, and in different sections have different activities. One place where we could go to play cards and other games, a place where we could have cokes and do homework, and in the main hall a juke box. The older people could teach us how to dance, for there are many high school students that can't dance, but would like to, and should learn. They could, perhaps once a week, on Friday nights, have a dance,and teeners from all the communities could come. This isn't impossible. We had that sort of thing before the war. We could form a club, name it Doddlebug , pay dues, and go to dance to Harry James and drink cokes. This is the right kind of entertainment for today's young people, BUT is this the kind of entertainment your children find? I'm sure that you can do something about this problem. You could get together in your own clubs, the lodges, the Wemen's Literary Clubs,and form another club to help your children find the RIGHT kind of entertainment - OR would you rather we just struggle along finding our own entertainment, always going to the movies on week nights, and toqgrenton on Saturday nights?
